More wonderful content tonight from the wonderful man, Jimmy Fallon on NBC's Tonight Show. When the international rockstars from U2 come by for a visit, you don't just prepare a little stage somewhere so they can sing a lovely song. You take them up to the top of a huge building so they can declare truth in front of the entire city and the world!
How many people will see this post? All of them, probably.
Princess Hayley emerged as one of the first "secular" artists to contibute to this incredible movement we've grown here. This video features music released on the tail end of an era I call my Methodist Hospital days. The days of my original blog John Is Waiting For His Princess. Times of incredible excitement, as well as times of immense difficulty.
We will be more than this, Princess. And I'm still into you, too.
Thank you.
I don't want to let her down. The Princess has unique challenges and battles we know nothing about. The last thing she needs is to look out at a crowd from a stage 12 miles from where I sleep at night and know I chose not to show. I mean, let's be honest, that would make me a real jerk.
What a fantastic evening last night. This was my first Cannons show. My observations? Great sound. Great crowd. Princess Michelle looks and sounds fantastic on stage. Were you nervous, sweetie? If I'm in the crowd, you don't ever have to be. There's nothing to be scared of. It's a Princess Party! Relax.
Although I thoroughly enjoy the new music (including this song I posted tonight), my favorite of the night was still Desire, a track I've featured here on the blog. Judging from the crowd's reaction, that track is a fan favorite as well.
I will occasionally list Upcoming Events here at johntylerblog.com. If you want to know where I'll be next, that's the place to visit. As for Cannons, I'm wishing you all the very best for the remainder of the tour.
I hope to see you again soon, angel.
Do Italians really do it better? I must tell you that the late, great David Lynch actually introduced me to this band with an episode of Twin Peaks, but I've been intrigued ever since. Here's some great electronica from the band's album Cherry. We have cherry flavored music here, my dear.
We're still waiting for all of their contributions, so saying Italians do it better at this point may be a tad premature. However, I sure do enjoy playing this band occasionally while relaxing at 7979.
Have a great night, and a fantastic week.
Sometimes the Princess struggles with feelings of inadequacy or self-doubt. I always try to encourage her, to let her know how beautiful she is and that she is loved and more than enough. On the platform previously called Twitter, I told her time and time again who she is:
Here's Princess Lauren Daigle - You Say
Readers of this blog know I love my Gospel Girls, the earliest contributors to what we now celebrate as Princess artistry here. Often using their God-given gifts in the face of bizarre adversity and struggle, they choose to love in the midst of chaos. They choose to believe in the midst of cynicism. They choose to take the right path in a world where unfortunately the wrong one often seems to represent the path of least resistance.
They came from that incredible time when each week, either on my blog or on Twitter, a new lovely lady would play the part of the Princess, having that tiara sit on her pretty head for a week. They fought for love. The fought for truth. They helped me in my quest to locate my future wife.
Back in those days, we even chose to believe one of them could actually be my future wife. We continue to honor their legacy by carrying on that tradition, even to this day.
Who wants to wear the tiara tonight? Here's Princess Ledger.
What a great morning it was in America (and elsewhere, for that matter) when Princess Carrie Underwood debuted her classic "See You Again" video on a nationally televised morning show here in the States. We never like to see her heart breaking or hurting in any way, but she does such a fantastic job of sharing the Princess love in her pretty white dress.
I was able to catch her live in San Antonio at the venue previously called the AT&T Center. Whose show will John be at next? Y'all decide.
