AJ Debut Music Album Going into Full Production!!!

Current mood:Timeless
Category: Music

Hello, lovely friends! How are you doing? I wanted to fill you in with one of the LATEST UPDATES on my debut music album! Actually, my album is going into full production in the month of February! WOW!

Now, some of you may be asking, "What does full production of a music album mean exactly?". Well, what will take place is a time of me and the album producers collaborating/sharing our ideas vocally, instrumentally, and basically just bringing out the best overall sound of the CD. (As you know, from reading my previous blogs, I have recorded all vocal work for my songs already.) This will be a VERY FUN time where I will have the chance to make some important decisions for you all, so I appreciate your most sincere prayers on the outcome of this album. (Know always that I am continually praying for you.) This is for YOU, so I want my album to sound the VERY BEST it can possibly sound!

Simply, I CANNOT WAIT to share my music with the entire world, and EVERYONE who wants to listen! This is an absolutely thrilling time for us ALL! God bless, take care, and talk to you again soon!

P.S. Remember those surprises that I have to tell you all about "in the coming months"? Well, they are coming A LOT SOONER than we all think (even sooner than I personally think), hehehe... Hmmm... Stay tuned for more at: Http://MySpace.com/ArielleJonesMusic to find out just when those surprises will be revealed!!!

Happy that... AMERICAN IDOL is BACK on the Air!! YEEES!


Happy that... AMERICAN IDOL is BACK on the Air!! YEEES!
Current mood:*American Idol Mode!*
Category: Movies, TV, Celebrities

I am truly happy that... AMERICAN IDOL is BACK on the Air!! YEEES! There is NO SHOW on television like it!

Fans of American Idol, like myself, can ALL agree that we love the different phases of the show (if not everything on it)! I love the entire process so much that I cannot decide which part is my favorite! All I know is that... IT'S BACK!!!

I already have my personal choices for the American Idol finalists, AND even my very own favorites! If at all possible, let us vote this year, DEFINITELY! In the words of AI host, Ryan Seacrest, "your favorite can win ONLY if you vote for him or her." Basically, we should not think that our favorite American Idol will win automatically just because he or she is THAT fabulous! NO! We have to help our favorite(s) win!

Honestly, I was saddened () by last year's results because I REALLY ENJOY the talents of David Archuleta, though, I will admit that all of the finalists are GREAT! "It's anyone's game", as the saying says, right? ANYONE can win, but this time around, I am going to do my VERY BEST to make sure that my American Idol wins!

(Look at this picture. I mean, HOW can you turn someone as talented as David Archuleta down? At least, he is NOW signed as a professional recording artist, like he deserves! Such a beautiful, talented, well-rounded, humble spirit! He will always be one of my FAVORITE American Idols!)

Speaking of David Archuleta, I would like for you to "Check THIS Out" (hahaha)! If you are a David A. supporter, like I am, or just LOVE his singing performances, you will be EXCITED to see this special presentation! Trust me, this IS worth your time! Take a look: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u5Qx11VZZJM

Well, this is the close of my "Happy that... AMERICAN IDOL is BACK on the Air!! YEEES!" blog (haha)! As always, I love to hear from you and am interested in knowing YOUR favorites as well! Cannot wait to talk again soon then! Take care, and God bless!

To whom much is given, much is required"... (Luke 12:48)

Wow! I have really discovered new meaning to the Bible saying, "To whom much is given, much is required", especially pursuing a career in the recording arts.

I am in the beginning stages, but see God's hand doing greater things. Just really excited to see where this roller coaster ride will lead.

I am excited to say that I will be releasing my debut album sometime in 2009, and since that is not too far away, I am pretty happy!

It's funny because when you are in the recording studio making music, you just pray that everything will come out the correct way. You are not sure, to be honest, how the final product will sound. When the music comes out great, however, we can all say, "Wow! How awesome is our God! He is full of surprises!"

It actually takes A LOT OF WORK to get to the point of having something worth laying down and recording. Let's see the lyrics, melodies, harmonies, instrumentals, learning new concepts, continually practicing those new concepts. I can tell you honestly, I am singing at night in my dreams and right before I eat breakfast every morning! (Hahaha!) Yes, I am devoted deeply to music. You will hear that in my new song "Expressions (That's the Way)", which I listened to today! You better believe that I was singing on a train trip (as an infant) before I even formed words with my mouth. How would I know? The mom told me about this, lol. It is deeply rooted, without a doubt. "Music makes me feel complete inside..."

I am constantly inspired by songs, musical performers, and great performances. There is this song I really love by Gospel singer Kierra "KiKi" Sheard that includes the lyrics, "...But I've got to tell you something/YOU GOT TO GO THROUGH SOMETHING/IF YOU WANT TO BE SOMETHING/Because you can't get it for nothing." I must admit, those lyrics REALLY tug at my heart and soul each time I hear that song. It is an unbeat dance song, yet it contains some of the deepest, most gripping lyrics ever (intended solely to make us realize the WORTH of an important task).

Apart from music, I enjoy great books. I LOVE poetry. There is this book I am reading now called "Don't Give Up on Your Dreams: Words to Motivate and Inspire Your Dreams". I voice blog and do online talk shows based around this book ALL THE TIME! I must have talked about it a million times, but do you know what? If you have a dream, you need something to "feed" (motivate, stimulate, and inspire) your dream, so that you will stick to it. (A.k.a. -> When times get tough, you know what you were put on this earth to do!)

Music is my "baby" FOREVER! This is my TRUE heart, my love, my joy; simply put. I want SO BADLY to tell you the name of my debut CD right now, but I have to wait until the time is right. After all, I would not even tell my mother whom I am extremely close to, love, and look to greatly for inspiration. I had a "feeling" about it, and usually when I have these "feelings" I know it is something beyond me, something greater than my own human desires. When you hear this album, though, you will say, "Wow, I did not know THAT about Arielle.. I did not realize... (you will fill in the blank)." Anyway, being real is making connection. I HIDE NOTHING EXCEPT WHEN NECESSARY. Talk again soon then? Alrighty! (Hahaha!) ;-)
