Welcome to Thom Hells.. official MySpace page.
Check out thomhell.com for more info.
It’s been some hard days and nights, and he’s been working like a dog. I am proud to introduce "God If I Saw Her Now", Thom Hell’s third album.
HELLP, THOM’S UP and HELLO. These are some of many interesting title suggestions for this record. (Hello was used as working title and could have easily ended up as the albumtitle!).
’God If I Saw Her Now’ on the other hand, appeared from out of the blue in a second hand vinyl shop. ’I’d been looking for this Anthony Phillips record, The Geese And The Ghost, for many years’, says Thom. ’And when I finally found it I noticed one of the songs was called God If I Saw Her Now. I was always very fond of that particular song and I thought - I’ll take it!’ This Thom Hell album has some obvious references like Paul McCartney (more Wings than Beatles!), Beach Boys (less Mike Love!) and Pink Floyd (some Syd Barrett). There is also a hint of a more progressive sound. Thom even calls one of the songs the YES song...
Still, at the end of the day, i.e. 45.20 mins, when the record has played out, I think you will find that this most definitely is a Thom Hell record. And it’s his best one. God If I Saw Her Now will be in stores from April 7th. Enjoy!
Du er en flott artist med et stort hjerte for musikk med nerve! Hyggelig å hilse på deg i Langesund (Bacharach) i sommer, og å gi deg plata vår! Alt godt! Lars, Alvedanser.
Just thought I'd stop by and say hello....it's been a while! How are you? Just wondering if there is any news on the new album. Looking forward to hearing what you come up with next!
Har bestilt alle cd,ene dine nå.Har bare hørt på den siste til nå, men ble inspirert da jeg hørte på "Tired" nylig.Har ikke satt meg veldig inn i teksten enda,men følte de første strofene talte til meg...Ihvertfall fikk det meg til å tenke på å f.k.s følge drømmen sin, i stedet for å være i en jobb man f.k.s synes er helt grei,men kanskje ikke mer enn det...
Beundrer mennesker som kanskje sier opp jobben sin,og heller følger hjertet sitt,selv om det kanskje innebærer å bevege seg ut på utrygg is,men føler at det er det jeg er i ferd med å gjøre nå.
Helt utrolig nydelig melodi på den sangen.Gleder meg til å høre på de andre albumene og.
Takk for at det ser ut som du følger drømmen din :)
Takker så mye for vennskapet her i cyberspace. Takk for all inspirasjon og lykke til med alle fremtidige musikalske krumspring. Nyt sommeren, musikken og livet, V
