Michael Johns Blogs on Myspace!

Date October 23, 2008

Michael just posted this blog from his myspace.

Gday y’all

I wanted to apologize for not writing lately. I have been so busy it’s insane. I feel like my new life involves only planes and recording studios :) I am so greatful to be working this hard but i am so tired.
I have had so many wonderful experiences over the last year all due to you guys. You put me here, you continue to believe in me.
As many of you know i am singing the National Anthem in Atlanta this weekend for the Pep Boys 500 Nascar. Wow what an honor to be infront of 200 000 people and millions on TV, singing what i think to be one of, if the not the best song a singer can sing. I cannot wait although i am nervous. I believe it will be live on ABC at 2pm EST. Hope i kick butt on it.

Also the album is coming along great. I am so happy with the songs and the sound we have. It’s very soulful yet still rockin and fun. I know you guys are gonna love it. I wanted to get a single out in Nov but with all the appearances and travelling i’ve been doing we’ve run a little behind. I won’t rush anything just to rush it. Besides until Jan/Feb i have the David Foster and Friends DVD coming out i have the Shaun White Don’t Look Down Documentary coming out on ESPN with a full CD of songs attached too. So there is new music for yall just not my first single just yet. Also we are in talks right now to release a Christmas song i wrote. It would be an acoustic performance of the song. Its calles Another Christmas.

I love you all for the support and again i’m working so hard to give you guys an Album that is truly timeless.

MJ

    Michael, THANK YOU SO MUCH for getting in touch with us here at MJO! I have really been worried with not seeing you on MySpace for about 8 days. I was getting concerned. I am breathing a big sigh of relief today!!! You came back to MySpace where SO MANY of your fans are and now this wonderful Blog entry! Today is definitely a GREAT DAY! I saw and heard you singing the National Anthem at the Cubs game. It was just OUTSTANDING!!!! Just do the same thing & you will surrely knock it out of the park. I can’t wait for you to release your hot single so we can all get behind you and vote for you to be #1 on the VH1 Countdown – that’s my dream. You are smart not to release something just for the sake of getting something out there! You are still a class act and we really do LOVE YOU!!!

    WOW!!! I love it already. It is just what I need – acoustic performance from you Michael. Just you and your guitar…Your voice is like orchestra itself for me, so rich, so beautiful. You sing right into my hear. Thank you!

    Great to hear from you, Michael!
    Know you’ve been hugely busy – - which is good! Understand totally the delay in getting a single/album out. Patiently waiting!
    Thanks to MJO, I have your music from your last trip to Australia & from Washington DC to tide me over til David Foster & Friends…
    I think the iPod just automatically goes to your songs now, Michael! Seriously, I could listen to you all day!
    Hi to Stacey and the rest of your lovely family.
    A fan forever,
    Beth

    Hi Michael! Thank you for taking the time to blog. Very nice surprise, as I know you have been so busy. You absolutely do not need to apologize. You have kept us more than happy!

    I am so incredibly excited to hear your Christmas song! You sound so amazingly beautiful when you since acoustic, and you are such a talented songwriter. I know it will be absolutely perfect! And I can’t wait to see you on David Foster and Friends. There is so much to look forward to that I really wasn’t totally bummed when I heard your single wouldn’t make November. The new Jan/Feb timeline seems much better. And it’s easy to be patient when so much is going to happen to hold us up!

    Love you and hope you are getting at least a little R&R!
    Melanie

    Thanks Michael for the blog. It’s put a great big smile on my face :)
    In case I have not mentioned it, the music you’ve put out before is already timeless as far as I am concerned and I have no doubt the coming album and the Christmas song will be the same.

    Now go and kick some butt this weekend. I can’t wait to hear all about it.

    What an amazing surprise to find this blog today, thanks Michael! I can’t wait for the Shaun White cd to come out, what I heard on the documentary was brief but I know the songs are going to be fantastic.
    I can’t wait for your album and am glad that you are being careful and making sure to put out a quality album and not just rushing to put anything out. Also glad to hear the album will feature your soulful and rock side, I love the combo!
    Good luck with the national anthem this weekend, we’ll be watching!

    Gracias Michael por escribirnos. Ya mucho tiempo atras te escribí pidiéndote que cantaras una canción de Navidad y ahora veo que será una realidad. No debes tener nervios al interpretar tus canciones, cuando se interpretan con todo el corazón, la musica sale del alma y con tu timbre de voz será maravillosa. Muchas felicidades. Siempre estoy pendiente de todo tu entorno.

    Michael, thanks for this update. We enjoy so much hearing from you periodically so we know how you are doing during this exciting time. We care for you, so please do not stress yourself regarding posting. You are worth the wait. Just have a good time reaching your goals. That is what makes up happy.

    makes US happy, sorry for the misspelling.

  29. Evelyn Borda said at October 29th, 2008, 1:43 am: ()

    Thank you Michael for thinking of us… I am pretty sure your album will be worth all the wait..

    And your Christmas song, that will be really something new.

    And since I live here in the Phils, I know it will take time before I can get a copy of your single or cd. But I will find a way.

    And I will count of course on the help of my MJO family so I can be able to do that.
    God Bless you..
