UPDATES!! & Jordin with Appendicitis

[Prinia]

Glad that Jordin is enjoying the Lakers Game but is feeling really put out that she's missed "New Moon" - feeling like the only person not able to see it. Poor thing, but I'm seriously relieved that it all didnt happen on the long long plane flight to Australia. For one thing, not only the pain and illness, but finding an airport over the sea can sometimes be rough! (update just tweeted - gone home from hospital, but no funny movies and no coughing!)

Guy will be singing "Art of Love" and I'm sure he'll think of something to make it very special, possibly keeping Jordin in mind.

Should be a spectacular night for the final two.. So best of luck to Stan and Hayley, both extremely talented and deserving of being there. (Wish I could get there too - what a lineup of talent!! Mika too)

I really want the hard copy of this EP

______

as my own personal OMG!!!!

"The Way You Make Me Feel" is IT!

This is the husky, growwwwwlllyyy Guy, just Carl Dimataga on guitar, the glorious Sally on violin (what an absolutely beautiful looking, fabulous violinist she is) and wonderful production. I'm hoping this is on the physical, but just (finally) got mine from Bandit.fm

major issues earlier (honestly... what is it with Guy's stuff? So often there are bad links, or links taking people to other artists sites? And poor fella, he always gets launched at the really busy time like now... I guess for that though, you either go for a #1 - or major sales? And he's going oh so very very well - as someone tweeted



While we wernt looking Guy Sebastian, former Idol singer,became a producer,recording enginer,studio ownr,songwriter, pianist...

.....guitar player, drummer, and collaborator with some mighty excellent music people. How time flies


we fans forget that for others, this aspect is sort of a revelation - but he's been producing and recording since before idol, and of course can play violin which was his first instrument when he was just very young.

One does have to make allowances for Australia's small population -
ie 35,000 for Gold
70,000 for Platinum accreditaton - but HERE

this does NOT include stats as hereunder (being official original sales and NOT ongoing sales over the last 7 years - see below


"those quoted sales figures do not take into account Guy's new platinum (ie single "Like it Like That" now well over 2P and still going very strong), or the 60,000 over accreditation he sold for "Just as I Am" (debut album) and at least 30,000 over accreditation for Beautiful Life(2nd album) (fully supported by press statements from his record company and also on Asian Sony sites). Guy's actual sales figures in Australia are now in excess of 1.45 million"



(Been annoying Guy fans over the years that it was announced at end of 2004 that Guy had sold almost 7P of Just As I Am and this figure was always continuously quoted for 6 years - despite the fact that he sold very well in Asia and in New Zealand too, and in fact had reached 7P well and truly) :)

If one takes population percentage and the amounts sold - Guy has gone on to be one of the most successful from the series. He's had four #1 singles too. Its all good news :)

We're waiting for the official video to be made 'official' - very frustrating... meanwhile

Hope the video is still here (http://music.ninemsn.com.au/blog.aspx?blogentryid=536629&showcomments=true)
