New York (Top40 Charts/ Shore Fire Media) - This summer, Gary Go was traversing Europe opening for Lady Gaga - who called him "my favorite new artist of the year" - with a Billboard prediction that his "universal sound and positive energy signal a bright future."

 

From there he took on the Internet and earned praise from PopEater, Spinner, CNN, Huffington Post and others - who were all enthralled by his talent for making music on his iPhone.

 

Watch a demonstration on CNN: http://bit.ly/Gary-CNN

 

Next up for Go: His song "Open Arms" will air on "The Hills" on October 6 and kick off a 10-date North American tour opening for Mika next week.

 

Gary Go's self-titled debut album - "a first-class pop album " (People) - is out now on Decca.

He is signed to Gary Barlow's label, isn't he..

I remember him singing a cover version of Lady Gaga'a Just Dance...

 

It was posted on The Sun's website. I will try to find that one for you all.:wink2:

EDIT: here it is:

Oh thanks Ingie. I saw Mika's American dates on GG's site the other day but I didn't know if he was doing the Canadian ones as well. He seems pretty good.

 

I saw someone complaining on a YT video of Mika's Poker Face cover that Mika already did a cover of Just Dance and he should work on his own music. I see that GG has done a cover of Just Dance so they must be mixing them up. :naughty:

:blink: how can anyone possibly mix them up?

 

Just looked that up on Youtube.

 

At 2:00 - 2:10 ish, does that remind anyone of anything?? :naughty:

:confused: not sure...uncoordinated dance moves or what do you mean?

 

His songs are tuneful, he seems ok.

Yes, ok, but not outstanding in any way.

 

..and in case you were wondering from whom Mika borrowed his spaceman outfit for Bestival, here is the answer:

Thanks, Ingie! I knew Gary Go was opening for some of the dates, but

didn't know about all of them -- glad to see that he's doing NYC! I've really been liking him :thumb_yello:

I think it really helps when you get to know the music that the support band play. At the risk of repeating myself - :blush-anim-cl: again - I found out about Pull Tiger tail because they supported Mika in May 2007. I love them, and although they haven't had any success, knowing their stuff made the evening even better......

 

I hope Gary Go is/are good too.

Well unless he's better than Mika, I hope it's not Gary Go. I will be sick of him by then. :teehee:

 

Mwhahahahaha I rather doubt it:roftl: Ah well most of the support acts here have been good, Alphabeat, Yelle, Sam Sparro. I'll just forget that Hercules and the love-affair exist:roftl:

:lmfao: Sounds like they used the I Am T-Pain iPhone app. :lmfao:

 

I like his 'Wonderful' song. Go figure the only time when I might actually like an opening act I won't be there. :aah:

 

They have an app for that? :rolls_eyes:

*kind of wants to try it* :teehee:

 

 

I do too. Thank you iTunes for the free download :naughty:

I remember seeing the video while watching an Italian Radio station web cam and waiting for Mika to arrive :lol3:

 

Sorry :emot-sad:

Yup they do! I've watched videos of people using it on youtube. It's hilarious. If I get a job where I want to go I'm going to live with one of my friends who was my past roommate and she has an iPhone. I want to buy her that app so we can try it because I refuse to get an iPhone. :naughty: It looks fun. I'd like to make calls while using it. :teehee:

 

They have that song on iTunes for free??

You should. That would be amazing :lol3:

 

 

I'm not sure if they still do, but they used to.

I just listened to some of the links (Ingie, suzie) provided here. :thumb_yello: I like what I hear so far. Thanks! Yes, and I agree with Ruth, I am looking forward to seeing the support act too now (for the first time). :biggrin2:
