I know I’ll be listening thanks for the link!!!!!
Thanks so much…can’t wait!!!
So happy to be Pacific!
How cool that we can listen to it! We are always with you, Michael!
Looking forward to it, the Aussie interviews always seem to be so much looser and more entertaining!
Gonna try my hardest to catch it!
Wouldn’t miss MJ for the world!!!
Michael is singing on this show!
OMG…he is singing Fool’s Gold with his guitar…it is absolutely phenominal!!!! It is slower and more bluesy than his myspace site…awesome, awesome Michael!!!!!
This is blowing me away!!! Go Michael!!!!
Missed the first part of the interview because I had to take my daughter to the orthodontist, but the remainder was great. He sounded great singing. was the lady, Sue, who rang in anyone from MJO?
Michael you rocked “Fools Gold” acoustically.. OMG INCREDIBLE!! Loved it!!! I cannot wait to go to a Michael Johns concert full of original music..
That was incredible I heard the entire interview and song! thank goodness for the internet! I too can not wait for a full Michael concert
OMG people how amazingly awesome was that version of Fools Gold?? Michael Johns you rock you have no idea how much
I liked this version of Fool’s Gold much better than the one on his Myspace! I love it when he sings with his guitar , as we can then hear just his voice!!
Michael you sounded amazing!!!! Can’t wait to hear you on the radio everyday! Single next month! Hurry up February!
Michael, you singing Fool’s Gold today – just your voice and the guitar – Fantastic! I’m glad you found Portland, Oregon amazing! Portland finds you amazing, too! Please come back soon!
Michael…acoustic Fool’s Gold was soft and sultry and sexy…your voice is nothing short of sensational. I cannot wait for the rest of the CD!!!
holy crap! I can’t believe I missed this! Fools Gold happens to be one of my FAVORITE songs. I hope somebody was able to get an mp3 of the interview and song. Michael with just a guitar…sounds AMAZING!
Michael, you sounded fantastic! What a genuine pleasure to hear just you and your guitar. Your album can’t come soon enough for me.
That was so good. I would buy a cd with this on it. What a great voice.
Michael, Loved this version of Fool’s Gold. Your amazing voice
showcased~~~~ Fantastic!!!
to the girls who recorded this…thank you SO MUCH! He sounds amazing. Cannot wait till the album releases.
Michael sounded fantastic! Fool’s Gold is one of my favorites and it’s great to hear him singing one of his own songs for a change now that he’s out of the Idol bubble.
Here’s a link to download just the song. I’m adding it to my iPod as I type this then I’ll listen to the rest of the interview. http://www.sendspace.com/file/rha6o2
Thanks for the link! I enjoyed this interview and his singing too.
So single in November and CD in February. Hope it all works out going indie.
At the same time I am glad “Fools Gold” is NOT the first single. That song is OK but he needs a more mainstream sound to get airplay. I hope he manages to put something out that is marketable.
Good luck Michael… Think about radio and marketability when choosing your fist single. You are going to need that to make it.
Michael, I absolutely loved that rendition of Fools Gold! You sounded incredible!! My heart was pounding through the entire thing!! CAN”T WAIT TO SEE YOU PERFORM LIVE AGAIN!!! STILL JONESING FOR JOHNS!!!
Re: my comment above…when I said “you and your guitar,” what I meant, of course, was
“you and that other guy’s guitar.”
Still fantastic, though!
Kristen, Thanks a bunch for getting this available so quickly. I am listening to it through my iTunes downloads and it sounds great. I have enjoyed so much reading your postings and watching your videos, especially your FANtastic Mavids!
Thats my Michael !!!
Great to hear his own music !!!
Dayum. That was frickin gorgeous. <3333
Thanks for the mp3 of the song, Kristen!
This would be great as the new featured video!
That was excellent.
I emailed them and thanked them for having him on and that they did good. They should also have him back when his single is out because I’ll definitely be listening.
I love,love,love,love it!!!!! gosh! heaven!!!
Beautiful, just beautiful.
What a treat to hear this with just a guitar for accompaniment. Michael’s voice just shines throughout the whole song and it’s simply beautiful!!
I’m so glad to hear that this will be on the CD!
Thanks to everyone for recording, and the links and downloads!
this song is so sad.
Bone chilling voice. Beautiful…..
Michael McDreamy <3
Love, love, love it. I love the acoustic stuff!
Of all of his many amazing songs Fools Gold remains my favorite. I know I’ll be back to watch this again later. =)
I love this version of Fool’s Gold! It sounds so much better than the original version with so many backing vocals. The acoustic really helps the song just highlight MJ’s amazing voice…he definitely doesn’t need any help! Hope it’s on the album!
YEAH!!! Thanks Pat
Incredible–Seems to have some sort of really unique blues/country sound to it. I love it! I hope he continues to experiment with that sound–like I said, its really unique!
^^^i agree with you fu-fu, i hope he continues to explore with this sound…wow, i’m speechless….i love THIS version of fool’s gold so much more
