More than Friends (Jason Mraz song)
More than Friends is a song by American singer-songwriter Jason Mraz featuring Meghan Trainor from his 2018 album Know. It was released on October 8, 2018 by Atlantic, runs 3 minutes and 1 second, and was written by Jason Mraz, Meghan Trainor, Jonathan Green and Andrew Wells, with Wells producing. The bubbly, quirky acoustic love song is about two friends who want to take their relationship to the next level, hinting at a summer romance.
The music video for More than Friends, directed by Darren Doane, premiered on September 17, 2018 on Mraz’s YouTube channel and features a meta setup where two coworkers on a video shoot confess their feelings, intercut with scenes of Mraz and Trainor performing. A separate dance video, directed by Ryan Hutchins, followed on November 1, 2018. Mraz and Trainor performed the song on The Ellen DeGeneres Show on September 18, 2018.
Commercially, the song charted modestly, appearing on Belgium Ultratip charts and the US Adult Top 40 chart, with positions in the 30s to 40s range. The collaboration began after producer Andrew Wells arranged a writing session with Trainor; the session led to the track and helped push back some album deadlines. Trainor aimed to create a version of the playful dynamic between Mraz and Colbie Caillat on Lucky (2009). The song’s breezy, summery vibe matches its back-and-forth vocal style.
