A pure song that will not appear on the album. This song has no friends. It is a loner. It speaks its message and leaves. Does not hate anyone or love anyone. It just is itself from start to finish.

I am posting it for just a day or two on my MySpace profile to thank you all for being patient with me. I can’t wait to see you all. When I hear you request this one, I will have known you were with me since the beginning.

For those who celebrate, have an incredible and safe July 4th weekend. That goes double for those who have legalized fireworks in their states.

See you soon,

Love,
Ryan

It’s been brought to my attention that my stunt double is the new face of the US Air Guitar Championships in Brooklyn next week.

While getting rehearsals started (hint, hint: that means it’s getting closer to showtime), I took an afternoon off and donated my time to a New York City public school. They had an auction to raise money and, although I was told that some mothers wanted to bid for themselves, I did get a chance to teach two beautiful and inspiring sisters (ages 8 and 11) the craft of songwriting and we laid the track down for all of you to hear.

Enjoy, because this is what it’s all about at the end of the day.

DAY 1

Starting band rehearsals and final auditions on Monday, so I will keep you all posted every step of the way. Over the years, I have been lucky to meet a lot of talented people in the scene here in NYC and Long Island, so I look forward to introducing you to the gang and then getting on the road to see all of you.

While I am on the subject of friends, I want you to check out Lion Of Ido and the new video they just put out. It is a cover of No Air. Ido also just produced a B-side, called In America, with me in Brooklyn. I’ll let you hear that soon.

In the meantime, watch No Air - it is the new addition on my Favorites list at YouTube. See the vid and check out my other favorites. There is good reason behind all of them. To know the videos is to know me.

Growing Up

A friend sent this link to me. Thought you would appreciate it, especially if you are more of a newcomer to the music. Feel free to comment on your fav’s. I am starting rehearsals, so I could brush up on the songs for you.

Have the best weekend!

On a more important note to yesterday’s blog, I realize that as other artists throw their support publicly to the ones in the race, I have been quiet on my stance. I am taking this time to come out and can say here for the first time that I am officially endorsing David Archuleta to win Idol this year.

That’s right, I said it.

Right Now

In the fear of being one of those bloggers who disappear, I just want to say hello and that I am feeling great. I hope everyone went outside and felt the world around them today.

Sometimes it’s healthy to think about dying. I think about it everyday. Not in a mournful, depressing way, but in a beautiful sense. Think about that moment when you leave this world and the things you will miss. Like when you have a sore throat and you can’t even remember what it feels like to have no pain.

Take stock of the little things and the big things and then surround yourself with them all the time.

Close your eyes for 1 minute now and then leave a note here for us all to read.

Sloppy Joe

Not since I was ripping it up on the saxophone in the school jazz band have I performed at an elementary school. The kids of PS 290 in Manhattan had some fun with me while we jammed on The Beatles’ Hey Jude.

Coming soon to a school near you!

Election

The classic “Beverly Hills 90210″ comes out on top with the most votes by far, but due to the Super Delegates, “Gossip Girl” will be sworn in as our pick!

Thanks for voting.
