The rising German EDM maestro Zedd is set to release his Clarity Remix EP on February 12th; it features reworkings of his latest single, the Foxes-assisted "Clarity," from artists like Tiësto, Brillz and Style of Eye. Now you can get an exclusive first listen to Zedd's stripped-down take on his own track, which transforms the triumphant club banger into a poignant piano ballad laced with aching strings.

“I'm Yours”

Jason Mraz | 2008

Jason Mraz re-emerged after his disappointing second album with this lead single, a Jack Johnson-esque ditty about giving yourself fully to someone else. The success of the reggae-tinged song (it earned two Grammy nods and a spot on the Billboard singles chart for well over a year) was something the folk-pop singer never predicted when he wrote it in 15 minutes at home. "I played a happy-hippie chord progression that would probably work without 50 different Bob Marley songs," he told Rolling Stone. "I thought, 'It's too novelty. This is a nursery rhyme,'" concluding that "you can never guess what's gonna be a hit."
