I loved this video!!!! The songs that inspired MJ are great!!! I have long loved Van the Man!!…since Brown Eyed Girl was released but I didn’t know Madame George…and wasn’t familiar with it at all or Sam and Dave’s I Thank You but going to listen to them for sure!!
thanks so much MJ!!! that was awesome!!! One of these days, someone is going to do a video saying how much your songs inspired them..just watch..it will happen!!!!
OMG..Juumping Up and Down!!! My Boyfriend likes my other boyfriend Eric Clapton!! Mikey sing “River of Tears” or “Layla” hahaha! Yes!! Or “My Father’s Eyes”
I love this video!!! He is inspired by the absolute greatest… I’ve always been a huge Joe Cocker fan, as well as Tom Petty… and pretty much everybody he mentioned. It’s so great to see how much these people have impacted MJ… love it!
Awesome video MJ!!!! It’s so interesting to hear you tell of all those musical legends that inspired you!!! I’m sure many of them had a hand in who you are today…so HUGE THANK-YOU’s to all of them!!!!
I agree with Jane…one day we’ll be hearing the younger generation tell us how the great Michael Johns infleunced them!! It’ll happen for sure!!! Now I’ve gotta go update my playlist…:)
Fantastic video, Michael! I always love to hear you talk about music, especially since we have similar tastes. Half the songs you mentioned are already on my iPod — I’ll be sure to check out the others.
Dear Michael !
I like your interview.. Like your confidency.. like how you’re holding the mic with no
one time changing the distance from your face to keep the same sound level. I like
the way you’re describing the songs.. Some of songs I don’t know at all , but
I beleive you , that are beautiful, if they helped you to develop your vision of music
and became a singer we all love – you.. But I remember your American Idol
audition with this :
There were time and you want to be free
My love is growing stronger, as you become a habit to me
Oh I’ve been loving you a little too long
I dont wanna stop now, oh
With you my life,
Has been so wonderful
I can’t stop now….
Otis Redding ‘I’ve been loving you too long”..
And it was great idea to fill out the interview background with your songs -Heart On My Sleeve and River Of Life.. Both are so beautiful and you sound just amazing.
MJ picked some great songs and artists. He knows his music history! I can’t wait to hear how they have inspired him on his new CD. =)
fall at your feet… my fav song of all times… crowded house got to love them
