AJ! come to HK! it even rhymes, so it must be a sign.
You seem like a really great person, definitely a great role model for a lot of people out there :) I don't know music, but I know when I see a nice and reasonable person, and you are one. Sing loud and be proud!
hi aj! i really like you very much (sobra)... but you always reject me on facebook accnt! i know, u dont know me very well... maybe im just a fan of yours, but i'll tell you that i will nver give up addng u on fb, til u make friend with me! thanks and God bless!
i still remember how loud i screamed when i saw you on Glee project....my friends looked at me weird....i looked at them weird....then said : i know him!!!! i know him!!!" lol. ahhhhhh good times.
Bro... I'm so proud of you, i'm up there with Tomo... I've been watching you since 2007... awesome seeing you grow man and i love keeping up to date with all your progress. Love your CD i'm gonna get a few more for presents... can't wait to see more of you... its almost about time for a new original for me to fall in love with???
AJ, I just wanted to let you know that you've been a huge influence for me. Seeing that you're a great pianist made me push further to become a good pianist. At one point in my life I was taking piano lessons and It was just getting too hard for me, but then I saw your Piano Tribute for Japan and I just thought, "I wanna be that, I wanna inspire people all over the world." So thank you, soo much for being a huge inspiration. -3 (sorry for the long message. Lol)
i joined youtube also. i just wanted people to hear my music and id really appreciate if you came and checked out my videos. aj, you will always be a big inspiration to me. stay humble and god bless!
You shouldn't have to worry! You've come so far and you have countless dedicated fans that will be with you every step of the way. We all love you to death and we all love you just the way you are! <3
No Thank You! Wow this feeling is Awesome. I have a top comment on a video of yours that i wrote over a year ago.. "You belong with me" and now after years of posting on videos. You replied!! Wowww - Thank You =]
hi aj! i've been listening to your songs. i wish i discovered u way back then. i can really feel the passion on the way you delivered all your songs. i sent u a tweet yesterday. you're blessed with a big talent. i like it that you're fans have a chance to get o know you personally. too bad itunes isn't available in the philippines but i will definitely buy your album or order online when i get to the US this December, likewise with the other Asian singers like JV. Both of u are my faves.
I don't know why, but I was smiling throughout the entire video while watching you.. Pretty weird.. $: . But, I have to say, that I'm really proud of you!
AJ, talk about whatever you want. :) People are watching you because they like you and they like your music. I'm glad you decided to do vlogs (and yes, AJ Speaks is cooler sounding than AJ... vlogs... lol =P) and talk about things that matter to you. Keep up the good work!! :)
Hello. I know this won´t be readed by more than 3-4:) but for those first..thank u:) i know u think : oh man always the same crap or something like this.. But what am i asking.. actually i´m only asking u.. to take a second and watch my music cover videos.. this gonna cost u nothing.. but it would help me alot. So why don´t u give a chance. I can not force you to watch my videos. But I beg you. You will not regret it:) thank u for reading. If u have some tips to get better, please mail me:)
@ilajil - thanks, bro, for reminding me that it's always about the music and self-expression, rather than the numbers and all of that. Keep it up always.
Hey AJ, you're a great person bro. I'm proud to call you a friend bro. I was super glad to have met you in the Glee Project auditions man. Can't wait to go watch you in Spring Awakening.
The mash-up that Lindsay did was actually my favorite song in the episode! I saw you briefly while watching the Glee Project and I was soo happy!! It's fun seeing the winners of the Glee Project on Glee because I watched their journey. I was actually rooting for Damian the whole time, and I'm soo glad he won, and he gets to be on the show!!
AJ ! I'm so sad because there's a problem with my subscription box, your videos from ilajil and yeeitsaj channel don't appear anymore... =( And I don't want to unsuscribe and suscribe again !
First off, congrats on being in "Spring Awakening".
Second, my favorite storyline so far is Quinn's new attitude. Love to see where that takes off. And cannot wait to see the Glee Project winners (especially Damian). I was smiling ear to ear when I saw Lindsay and I'm very proud that she made it this far.
AJ~~~~~~ Dude, I didn't realize how much I missed these kind of vids from you until now ^^ Thanks for this! Musical theater rocks!! And hosnap, man, congrats on Spring Awakening!! Keep going with this blog project~!!
U were at. Cabrillo high in long beach in the last scene huh? Lol I could tell I went to school. There still do tht was in my choir class room or at least it looked a lot like it lol
Lindsay did an amazing job! I have to say, AJ, when you and Cameron were tweeting each other I was fangirling quite a lot. Only cause I love you both so much!
