The piece Bella Luna is a tribute to the moon and the compelling effects it has over our mood and on natural elements. This song’s rythmic sound is a good example of the strong influence Brazilian music has had in developing Jason Mraz’s style. Released in 2005, Bella Luna is an ageless ballad, likely to become as eternal as the moon itself.
