Get all his albums. Seems to me about a year ago, someone (who shall remain nameless ) said he'd never make it. I'd say someone who gets Ann Wilson to sing a duet with him on his latest album is doing pretty well.

Deb you have to get Michael's albums. I've been following him since he opened for Heart a couple of years ago. He has also opened and played with Bill Medley. Bill and his daughter McKenna were at the Galaxy show last year. Yes, I have pictures and video, too.

Michael is playing the Coach House on September 21st. Deb, you should join us. Razz

From the Galaxy show last year:

"Simple Man"

Oh come on, name him.

I remember seeing him on AGT last year and really liked his voice....such soul. But then bam.....my re-united Mr Big did a new album and started touring, and Deb's been in the clouds ever since. Going to have to check out more of his stuff, love his vocal style and delivery.

This guy gets my vote this year (well, I can't actually vote, but . . .)

He just makes me smile

Those 2 huge groups of dancers (the ones with the silhouettes and the ones with the lights on their costumes) have amazing shows also, but as far as the singers go, this guy's the one.

Definitely! Couldn't agree more, makes me smile too. Was floored the first time he sang on the show, didn't expect THAT voice. I liked Snap Boogie too.

[No Surprize]

I would have never known about this dude without this forum. I love this type of music, perfect for kicking back with a vodka & tonic and a little herb. Thanks ofr the turn on!

[Jana]

I forgot about him after he won. What a spectacular performance. It's the same way I felt seeing Adele sing Someone Like You. They both gave me chills.

[Peartree12249]

Love his voice! I picked up a couple of his CD's. Not the country one though. I prefer his more soulful stuff. What's more he seems like such a nice humble guy. I like to see good hardworking talented people succeed.

[SYNCH]

Now, that's some great soul, rarely you can find in today's talents

Very cool to see Landau win it! Not to mention realize a dream of his to sing/share a stage with Patti Labelle. I would have been ok with him, Silhouettes or Illuminate taking it....just didn't get the PopLyfe draw though. When it was between him and Silhouettes at the end it was soooo cute and heart warming to see them so happy for him when they announced him..........they just enveloped him. Great bunch of kids! LOL, was sooooo cute, I mean the guy's gotta be at least 6'5 and he just disappearred in that dogpile of little kids.
