Queen of California Lyric Video
click here to go to the iTunes store and stream the record now. Pre-order if you dig it.
I listened to the record last Wednesday on my flight to Los Angeles. Gave it one more go round before it went out into the world… one last little listen as being just mine. It’s brought me so much joy and company and peace, and I hope it will do the same for you.

I don’t have any good opening words..so forgive me about the suck paragraph without some good words.
kebanyakan mendengarkan/melihat/membaca news/interview/gosip/talk show di media asing kadang-kadang bisa bikin lupa kalo kita hidup di daerah dan negara yang penuh dengan adat basa-basi. Orang sarkas kek saia mungkin agak susah diterima di masyarakat yang penuh unggah-ungguh ini. hahaha
Otak saia sudah terlalu terkontaminasi dengan budaya luar. Agak susah juga kalo harus menjadi putri sempurna di negeri sendiri.
Tapi bukankah kita juga lebih nyaman ketika menjadi diri sendiri. Ga harus pake topeng untuk terlihat sempurna di mata orang lain.
Orang sarkas juga manusia euy. haha
This has been one of my favorite shows on television for a while. One of those half hours that goes by like 11 minutes. Remember the video last Christmas with the two guys giving each other shopping lists to read off at Target? It was inspired by these guys. Too many people I know would love it don’t know about it, and as it’s told to me, a second season still hangs in the balance, SO… Tune in and check out Impractical Jokers tonight at 10… Funny and fun and good natured. Check out the show’s website here. I just like to see the good stuff (and good guys) win.
On such fool situation…so let’s skip the opening.
His name is Faiz Jamil Ardhana Putra.
He is the friend of mine. He is one and half years old. He’s such a cool kid. He moves like Bob Dylan’s song “most likely you go your way ( i’ll go mine )”. because sometimes I didn’t know what’s on his mind. He just did the way he was. I totally lost then when he did it. :D
And I think I know some kind what he will be some years later. He reminds me of John. The Big John. I wrote about John few months ago here . I wont give you a conclusion. do yourself about the conclusion.

I just want to say, the lil boy is the reason why I have to come home soon when i’m out, making me think to move on so i’ll keep him up till he thinks that he cool enough for being a really cool man. someday :D
I want to say thank you, from the bottom of my heart, for the love and kindness you’ve shown me over the last week. It was such a wonderful and moving show of support that at times I almost felt embarrassed by it. (I don’t like taking up too much of the overall field of view.)
I also want you to know that I’m cool with things. Transitioning from bummed to inspired, and getting excited for you to hear this upcoming album while I dive deeper into another one.
Thanks again for the love.
John
I have no idea how to introduce this post, so I’m skipping the first paragraph.
During rehearsal on Tuesday, it came to mind that I should see my throat doctor because something didn’t feel/sound right. I went in for a visit on Wednesday and a scope of my vocal cords revealed that the granuloma…
Here’s a clip of the first single off Born and Raised, called “Shadow Days.” I’m excited to share the first bit of sound from the album… Been looking forward to a post like this since October 14, 2010, the first day I started writing this group of songs. Enjoy.
