This is just to draw attention to someone I have discovered, and a song on his new album (came out Oct. 14) that I really feel is one of the best songs I've ever heard and easily in the top 10 of all songs so far this decade. It's called "Touch". You should all do what you can to check out this song.
Jonny's style is truly eclectic, it's a mix of rock, blues, jazz, and r&b. Check out this song or you'll regret it.

You're just discovering Johnny Lang now? You've never heard "Lie To Me"? It was pretty big in the 90's. (at least in Canada, I don't know about USA)

Yeah I'm just discovering him, I didn't listen to anything like that back in 95 when "Lie To Me" was released. I'm gonna keep this topic bumped up until I see that some of you have heard this song-- it's THAT good.

I did try to find this, but couldn't. I'll keep trying and let you know when I do, since it sounds like something I'd typically like.

Johny had a decent size rock hit with "Lie To Me" a few years back. I'm not a huge fan of his music, but admit that he is one of the top three guitarists around right now with Kenny Wayne Sheppard and Tom Morello.

I thought "Lie to Me" was from 1998 or so. At least that's when my pop station played the song a lot for a couple months or so.

My bad, 95 is basically when he was discovered.
"Lie to Me" was in 1997, peaked at #12 on the Mainstream Rock tracks. His biggest hit then is from his second album (1998's "Wander this World") called "Still Rainin" which hit #8.
Some of you may or may not have heard the lead single from this new album called "Red Light", it's really good. But "Touch" is the real stand out!! Keep looking for it!

I will look for "Touch" I dig Johnny Lang. He helped Hanson on their album that killed them, but was actually a decent album. I have the album of his containing "Lie To Me" and the whole album is good but I haven't listened to it in a while. Now maybe I will.
