The Distance Between Our Dreams

Posted by Johnny

When Ken Knox from Unzipped told me last month that he was doing a piece on Dean Monroe’s new single I quickly swept the information to the back of my brain.

Today someone commented on my music video on You Tube that he liked me, but liked Dean’s song much better than Deeper Into You. Naturally I had to investigate this for myself and dammit – Dean’s song IS really great!

Before writing this entry I decided I needed to research Dean a bit because as far as I know we’ve never met. And if we have it certainly wasn’t an encounter substantial enough for me to formulate an opinion of him. The last thing I want to do is promote someone only to later find out they’re a total jackass… or worse!

First of all, Dean lives in London so that’s a big plus. Second, he’s been in the business about as long as I have and he’s still going strong. Finally he seems very genuine and unaffected, which is a big bonus in this industry as far as I’m concerned. Oh yeah, and I think he has a beautiful singing voice so I certainly hope his album does well.

I personally like Deeper Into You much more. Although, Dean’s song is great as well.

Honestly? I like yours much more – and I say this without fear of being prejudiced. However it was cool and quite fair play of you to post it.

It’s fun, but it’s no “Deeper Into You”, I bought your single and remixes off iTunes the other week and i’m loving them! Any plans to record more music?

Ya know, honey – I do like Dean’s song alot…..I think I need to have that one. Remember us driving around in circles during your Christmas visit blasting the radio and singing? Especially when “Moving into Light” came on.

I found your song on Itunes so I googled you…Dean’s song is strong but there is an edgy sexy tone to your voice that suits the song really well..Dean’s is more controlled voice…..Difference interpretations of art is definitely enjoyable…I like your voice although I cant find any other songs by you….K

Sigh,

I finally heard your song. Since SOMEONE said the would send me a copy and never did. I must say…give up your day job. Serious. Wow. You really should make more music. You have an amazing singing voice (how did I not know this from when we were kids???) I have yet to get the channel to be able to watch you on tv, but I did google it and watch some clips. I don’t think I could stand to watch it from what I have seen, although I would try to out of loyalty and love for you as one of my oldest friends. I will support anything you do, well except the sex industry bit…not into THAT. LOL. I will stick with the lesbians on that front. ;)
