Jon's new site looks really great! I know I haven't been here in awhile but loving Jon as always. I just may get to see him tomorrow at the convention (I'm going to try to make it) I read on another webpage that put up Jon's Soundscan figures, I didn't know his album was in stores-did I miss something? I'm going to look for it If I don't find it I'm going to be pretty teed off! I think Jon's career is going GREAT! Way to go Jon.

I think its in stores... if not, go to Amazon.com.

You're so sweet! Thanks for the info, but I have a copy now and it's great-I love it-It cme courtesy of Jon himself. I met him at the Reality convention!

Jon can be a real sweetheart.

Let us know how you like the album!

Yes he is a real Sweetheart! I haven't done that yet? I thought everyone knew how much I love this album! I only wish there were more hours in a day to listen to it!
Jon, thanks again-you'll never know how you just made my year-not just my day! And to meet you too, that was a thrill, just too awesome!
Well, I love every song on the album, but I have my favorites (which keeps changing; every song is so layered and textured due to Jon's singing. I always discover somethng new with each song.) I would have to say "The Boy Next Door," is one of my all time favorites. I love everything about this song-the melody, the mood, and the words really captures who Jon is as an artist. It has great attitude! "The Man From Amsterdam," is another favorite. It's just a great story song and I love it because I hear something different each time I listen to it-it has a lot of subtle layers and I really like what the song is saying.
I've been in love with the two songs from the single CD every since I bought it. I could never tire of listening to "A Man Like Me," or "If I Go Away," always fresh and original just like I'm hearing them for the first time. It's truly amazing but that's one of Jon's true gift's. No one else have that in their voice as far as I'm concerned.
"Turn to Grey" and "Amanda Grace," are exceptional; they require at least a full day each of listening to appreciate. I love his vocals on both songs. And also "Stories from Hollywood" is one of my favorites-I listen to it a lot. I think it would make a great radio, song and a great summer song. "Burning in Hello," is another fave and "Gypsy Queen" also. The "Rodeo" song tickled me, that song captured a lot of Jon's personality. Depending on which mood I'm in, I'll listen to either song over and over again. Even the ones I didn't mention by name, I love them all!
