Lucky (Jason Mraz and Colbie Caillat song)

In an interview with VH1, Mraz stated that he "played a songwriting game" with friends to see how the lyrics would go. Mraz and Caillat performed the song on Saturday Night Live on January 31, 2009.

The video follows the context of the song, featuring Mraz and Caillat singing their verses. The video starts with a shot of Old Town city square in Prague. Mraz is shown getting ready to meet somebody. Caillat is in a hilly seaside area in Hawaii and sits on the beach as the song starts. Mraz gets ready and goes out to the square. Caillat continues to sing the song walking beside the sea and playing with her scarf. Mraz and Caillat sing the song with both in separate places. Scenes are interspersed with the scene of a car zooming inside and Mraz ultimately reaches Old Town Square in Prague and stands in front of the Jan Hus Memorial Statue. Both Mraz and Caillat look back and the video ends with the implication that both of them see one another. ==Charts==
