Featured Artist - Jack Johnson

note: the next 3 Featured Artists will be ones suggested to me by my friend Heidi Y.

I've finally given in. I've tried and tried to not like Jack Johnson. Why? Well because every song I have heard of his has always sounded the same...just like the songs that came before. This time, that's not the case. Once I heard his new song, "Sitting, Waiting, Wishing" (or something like that), I knew this time would be the time I got hooked.

After the pressuring of my friend Heidi last night, I bought the album. I sat down with the intentions of criticizing it. And, to my surprise, I liked it. Just about every song stuck out to me. My favorite songs would be Banana Pancakes and Breakdown. (just in case you actually go buy the cd and listen to it).

So as unprofessional as this review is, take note: I was an avid Jack Johnson un-supporter because all of his songs sounded the same. If you felt the same way as me, you'll probably like this new album. It's fun, and smiley, and there isn't enough music out there today that you can say that about....

....but keep reading over the next few days because the other 2 artists are just as wonderful!

And he's about the most humble, down-to-earth person you'll ever meet.
