I listened personally to the song David by Nellie Mckay and I think that the chorus sounds barely anything like the chorus to Lucky.
I think that it might just be a coincidence that they sound slightly similar. Jason Mraz is a very talented singer/songwriter, so why would he steal songs. If he even needed to steal a song from someone why would it be from a nobody wannabe. He could have stolen from Ben Folds or Chris Daughtry.
Also there are plenty of songs with slightly same sounding music or lyrics. There are even songs with the same name.
Also if this Nellie Mckay thought Mraz stole her music why wouldn’t she do something about it.
To sum up I think it’s very presumtious of you to say he stole a song from someone.

This reminds me of when John Fogerty of Credence Clearwater Revival was sued in his solo years for sounding to much like himself. He wrote a song that had similar beats to an old CCR song. BFD! Music is interconnecteded and one thing inspires another. Some songs sound similar. It is not through copying. Jason Mraz did not copy Nellie McKay. That is just silly.

I take exception to the comment for that nonsense of “Ice, Ice, Baby” though. Everyone knows Vanilla Ice stole that base riff from Queen. To believe otherwise is just plain ignorant.

I heard David by Nellie Mckay and it dies not sound like Lucky by Jason Mraz! Jason Mraz is very talented and he does not copy! Now STFU! and I agree with comment #38! I have been in music for about 6 years and i can hear the difference… By the way Jason Mraz is 1,000,000,000 times better than her… sorry but its the truth

They should reform New Kids on the Block & have this bozo open up to please the teenyboppers and 40-year-old women who hang on his every word.

Have you ever heard of the daying that goes “if you’re copying someone’s work it’s a compliment” well its true i couldn’t find the song online but so what you’re just jealous that you don’t have his life of singing and having over 9,000 fans screaming just to see your face.

Jason Mraz is an amazing performer, and does not copy music. They have completely different lyrics. You need to shut up and leave him alone!

Dear Writer,
As a band student I can understand that an illiterate person as your self could be easily confused I feel the need to explain the simple things as tempo and key to you as you seem to confused. Tempo of the two songs are the are both what seems to 2/4 which is a common tempo for music, but your melodies are completely different because “nelli” chooses the four beat word where as Marz chooses to you the two beat word. Then the melody takes off on its own. Marz use a the off beat where “nellie is on the beat. And they’re in differnt keys. Rhythm is not the same, so the only thing your confused over is tempo silly idiot!
