About this Article

Bruno Mars was jealous of Amy Winehouse because he wanted to do what she did: release genre-bending songs that connected with audiences around the world. "You couldn't put it in a box 'cause it could be played on rock stations, it could be played on rhythmic stations, it could be played on pop radio, and I've always wanted to make music like that — that could be spread out, and can't be pigeon-holed to one thing," he said. This week he's releasing an album full of even more sounds with "Unorthodox Jukebox."
