Campaign

Co najmniej 4 fanów poprosiło o zwrot pieniędzy, 1 już dostał. Jest to oczywiście reakcja na kolejne wystartowanie licznika oraz brak jakiejkolwiek nowej informacji.


Pamiętacie próbkę Firefly na tbr4.tumblr.com? To piosenka Golden boy (z 2006), jeśli ktoś chciałby ją mieć, to wystarczy napisać :)


Edit: Kolejny fan zażądał zwrotu pieniędzy. Kilku innych napisało maile, w których narzekają na poziom prowadzenia kampanii.

Pledge

Odliczanie przedłużone + żadnego posta. Miejmy nadzieję, że przynajmniej za te 30 dni dostaniemy sampler.

Czyli album będzie niestety mocno opóźniony. Albo NoM nie będzie na samplerze, albo i sampler wyjdzie dużo później.

Z jednej strony fajnie, że teraz Alexz jest perfekcjonistką i zdaje sobie sprawę z tego, że musi wydać świetny album, ale z drugiej minęło już ponad 3,5 roku od wydania Voodoo. Zaczynam się bać, że nowy album faktycznie wyjdzie w okolicy 4 rocznicy wydania jej debiutanckiego albumu. Szkoda, bo moim zdaniem powinna w jakiś sposób wydać go przed trasą Europejską.

Update

"Full album track list, EP cover art and release date coming soon!"

Czyli jest szansa (minimalna) na to, że sampler (czyli EPka) pojawi się 19 listopada. Ale ja bym na to nie liczyła.

MoBoogie sessions

MoBoogie wydało Skipping Stone w wersji akustycznej na yt, czy jak oni to nazwali "Stepping Stone"


"Alexz Johnson performs "Stepping Stone" from the Stepping Stone EP - acoustic at the MoBoogie Loft in Denver.  Recorded 3-23-13."

Thank You For Breaking My Heart

wouldn't let me shine, it was never the truth
lies, lies

let me believe that you'll never leave
if i had nothing to love
why, why

now here i am singing the blues,

But i wanna thank you for letting me down
cause i won't fall as hard the next time around
i know life isn't fair and you told me to suffer the scars
but i wanna thank you for breaking my heart

I let you inside
treated you kind
i wait for you every time and time


and i should've known i'd be better alone
but none of it was real
i was blind, blind

now here i am singing the blues

Chorus

if you hadn't left me hurting so bad,
then i'd never know how strong i am
I would be ready to be somebody new
a real man

Chorus

I wanna thank you for breaking me heart

This Is Heartache

found a new best --- so young

pulled you like a trigger and shot you like a gun

since you've been gone it's killing me son
i think about you everyday

how do i move on it's ringing like an alarm
pull out on the run a girl inside a song

every step i take leads me back to you
and i've been walking right on through

this is heartache though it's hard to take
can we do this face to face?
this is heartache but it's not giving up
if you're still in love with
just walk, just walk on into ?fate/grace?

love is unkind love is so cruel
sending back the letters that i've sent to you
both of our hearts are black and blue

You used to be my medicine, and now you see your breaking me down
you had me in a minute but where are you now?

a long gone girl is crying in the wind
and i don't know the state you're in

Chorus



found a new best --- so young

pulled you like a trigger and shot you like a gun

Chorus

walk on into fate

American Dreamer

Saw it on the table
I'm young and i'm able uh-huh

Driving your mustang
I'm dumb and i'm trusting uh-huh

someone please stop me
the shadows can't catch me uh-huh

you take money then throw it like leaves uh-huh

caught up in cages and minimum wages uh-huh

I've love lost in sorrow i'll see you tomorrow uh-huh
Who needs a tight rope when walking on new hope uh-huh

and always believe with a dream up your sleeve uh-huh

So come here come here, Come here come here
stay with me till dawn
so come here come here, Come here come here
we're both already on

American Dreamer, like --- we're up
up in the clouds
American Dreamer
We dream and we won't be here for long

And everything is hopeless you follow a compass uh-huh
I use what you give me like kites when it's windy uh-huh
and heroes get boring it's part of their glory uh-huh
you can't get it halfway where i met you uh-huh


So come here come here, Come here come here
stay with me till dawn
so come here come here, Come here come here
we're both already on

American Dreamer, like --- we're up
up in the clouds
American Dreamer
We dream and we won't be here for long

tide is high but i'm holding on
water rise but i'm not sailing home

Tide is high but i'm holding
the sun's coming up but the night's still young

Chorus

Be here for long, we won't be here for long

tide is high but i'm holding on, waters rise i'm not sailing home
tide is high but i'm holding on, sun's coming up the nights still young

Lista piosenek:

This Is Heartache

Nowe piosenki brzmią świetnie. Myślę, że ten album naprawdę może się zbliżyć do poziomu Weight. Alexz powiedziała tylko, że album wyjdzie niedługo. Nie podała daty samplera ani albumu, ale powiedziała, że American Dreamer będzie singlem.

Message to Pledgers

Hey guys,
I hope you’re having a wonderful fall, and enjoying the change of the season.

I wanted to post this as an update for you, but equally important, a way for me to type my thoughts without guard and share with you what’s happening in regards to the new album, and this time in my life, on my birthday!

I’m blown away by the unbelievable support by you (those who listen to my music and/or come to my shows)!

I feel an incredible amount of (fantastic) obligation to deliver an album I can stand behind and tour.

7 songs have been given the go-ahead for mixing and mastering…

If you are on a deadline for this new music, I will have to apologize in advance. I’m trying my best to be as authentic as I can with those who have pledged. I’m very aware I wouldn’t be making this record without your support, and I’m humbly grateful that you pledged. I’m hoping you can be patient with me, as you have been.. a little longer. It’s so close !!

I’m playing a show in NYC Nov 7th at Subculture. I’d had hoped to have my album sampler out by then, but it just didn’t happen that way.
Thanks for understanding.

For those of you who can make it to the show, raise your hand if you pledged so I can put a face to your contribution… I’m so looking forward to playing for you.

I’ve included some photos from rehearsal yesterday with the band and The Clean Up Crew vocalists. I can’t wait to play this show!
Love,
Alexz

Pytanie jakie się nasuwa, to czy Alexz opóźni sampler? Post krąży wokół tematu. 7 piosenek poszło do miksowania i masterowania. Ile jeszcze ich jest? Czy są jakiekolwiek?
