saw him the other day! but i was too shy to say hi. lol. he was so nice and talented. he even helped another artist whose cd they couldn't play. he volunteered and played the guitar for her.
that was entertaining, original and clearly a crowd pleaser. whatever happened to the saying "if you have nothing nice to say....you're probably a miserable human being"

For anyone who is interested, Joel has a new CD " The Home Demos Vol 1." which you can listen to on his myspace page by searching for joelmartinmusic check it out you won't be disappointed!

no thanks, I can already see he's a talentless egomaniac who used national exposure to get some laughs rather than impress us with any musical talent. Why have you?
@FailNotice He's a full time musician who actually makes a living off of his music. Clearly he's doing something right. Obviously the performance was meant as a joke (and the audience appears to have enjoyed it).
let me guess, your another aspiring wannabe tortured artist in your early twenties that thinks rock stardom is something you that's actually achievable because you can strum a few chords.
Compared to Johnathan coultons version of this song. : this looks like an unproffessional unmelodic not serious attempt at what could be done way better.i know itsa hard being in fornt of 5 billion people. but at least sell it. man it. dont make a joke of it. cause your just showing that your not gonna buiy what youre even selling. that is all. it sucked. peace
Misohunny, your a fool. seriously you have no clue what bullcrap your saying about Joe. Making a joke out of a song, For once a talented artist has fun doing his job. Plus he was happy going on canadian idol, bringing out his name and promoting his band. Plus shame on you. Perhaps if you'd go at one of their live show you'd think differently. Joel can make a cover of any song, and make it sound good yet thats what i think!
Last but not least
Distant Society is by far Ottawa's best local band
what does anything you just siad have to do w the actual version of this song? ie. melody. performance etc? just cause the lyrics are funny. doesnt mean you shouldnt try to perform it well. mu whole point is it could have been better. i applaud his desire to break away from the stat quo. he went lazy on it. hes basically using the lyrics to sell what it is first. not actually performing it well. and then the nod of what it is comes. do you play any instruments danny boy? i didnt think so.
Anyone in the Ottawa area can catch Joel Martin and his band Distant Society performing at Capital Music Hall on Friday May 16th at pm competing in the Big Money Shot Round 1 Finals for 45,000! Hope to see alot of fans there! Tickets 10 dollars at the door.
Hahaahahaaa Dude, that was the bestest & most awesomest rendition of baby got back I've ever heard. Hilarious and good singing to boot. Brings out a chuckle or two.
haha this is priceless...i know original version but i think this one is much better..it makes me laugh more...I'm from the States and no way would American Idol let that be sung...Canadians have so much more humor and life to them..thumbs up to the Canadians...lol great job
Joel I miss you :( Come back to Ottawa!
