Hey John! Thanks so much for the nice comments, very cool of you bro! To be honest with you, when I'm cutting vocals on songs, whether they are mine or songs I'm hired to produce, I just sing and let John Bass, my engineer at Arctic Sound, take it from there! Just listened to My Miracle, and it's a great song. Good luck with it in the contest, and I hope you get the call bro! Sean
My miracle...what a great song, John. Just had to come by & tell you again. :)
Happy Friday. Your phone should be ringing any moment. ;) Can you imagine the caller ID that says "19 productions", "Fox"...or "American Idol"..lol I might stare at it so long I'd forget to answer.
I know! So funny. Saw that post about his "fav songs" after the fact, but it was fun for sure to play along with the critiques. Keeps my mind off of waiting for the phone to ring.
Dear John, I really love your AI song, "My Miracle", it is beautifully written, produced and sung! I'm sure that it will be in the Top 20, or even win! The melody has been with me since I heard it the first time, and now I've heard it four times, and it's always wonderful...great job! I hope you've had a chance to hear my American Idol song, "My Time Is Here", I'd love to know what you think! Please stay in touch, Victoria
Hi John...Thank you for your friendship, for inviting me into your musical world, and for the kind comments you offered to me on the American Idol forum. It is a blessing to me to be a part of everyone's life during this exciting contest. And BTW, My Miracle is a wonderful song!
Thanks so much for the wonderful comment! I appreciate your encouragement, I really do. I've really enjoyed your work as well and thanks so much for the add! - Dana

Hi John!! My Miracle is such a beautiful song i hope all goes well with that...thank you for giving me the oportunity to record all i wanna do is love you....i love it...take care and good luck in all you do!!
Wow, looks like I might be your first comment. :) John, the songs sound great & I definitely think they both have a solid chance at the AI competition.
Miracle probably stronger lyrically for the "AI" finale, but they are both excellent. It also helps that you have great vocalists. I listened to both songs 2x all the way through...that's a good sign! :)
