1. Fallen Angel - 3:43 - Recorded in 1992 this song has a sound that belongs on our recently released album "Black" more than what we were doing back then. This song comes with a dark feel and a hint of suicide and it not for the fain of heart. Heavy chord progressions and a deep pounding beat this song is a surprise for the fans as it had been lost for nearly 10 years and was recently found in Joeys basement.

2. Stone Faced Lover - 2:46 - This is more of an upbeat song and is a great tune for dancing. This was recorded in 1997 and was left out due to it being considered "Not to par" by the label we were signed to. I feel that it is actually a great track and am very happy to present it to you now.

3. Wide Open - 3:25 - This song was also recorded in 1997 and features one of my favourite vocal performances that I have done. It has peaceful lyrics that talk about the gates to Heaven and a strong love between a couple. Happy mood all around with soothing drums and a peaceful melody.

Our last single, "Fallen Angel" has just became our 5th single to sell over 1 million copies! This is of course big news, and we owe it to you the fans, and all the people who helped us along the way. Another little update, I am about 9/10 of the way through my autobiography, and is should be done very soon! This has been a great experience and I hope you will enjoy it when it is released to the world.

Keep Rocking,
Johnny

BIG UPDATE



1. Love in the Dark - A ballad that was planned to go on Black but wasn't used as it was deemed to light for the album which consisted of dark and moody songs.

2. Time Bomb - This is another Black reject, which is a fast rocker that was not included for the same reasons.

3. Ring Finger Blues - This is an upbeat song that was to be used on Break Free, but was deemed to silly, and more of a comedy song. Its about a man who wants to get married but his ring finger is chopped off, and how they put his ring on his middle finger instead at the wedding.

In other news, The Fox has officially become our sixth single to sell 1 million copies, and Break Free, has TRIPLED the sales of Black, breaking 3 million copies sold this week! Very excited about that. Thanks so much to the fans who bought a copy, all 3 million of you!

AWESOME! AWESOME! AWESOME!

Morning Sun has made #5 in the Uk and #4 in the USA, while making #16 around the world!

More news to come, but plan on this band rising to the top, cause I got great plans."

Keep on Rocking,
Johnny

1 Long Time Coming - A song about a criminal getting whats coming to him and his sorrow over it. Very dark and real song detailing a struggle with drugs.

2 Smokin Mary - The average teenagers stoner song about a pretty girl and the affects of smoking weed. Powerful chords and smooth chord progressions.

3 Invincible - A long epic song of a warrior who beats everything he is put up against and no blow could stop him but then his lover dies and he finds his theory to be wrong. Lost of cool little solos with one epic solo with long notes and great wah wah. Synthesizers rule the beginning of this song.

4 Fields and Mountains - The lyrics talk of love and dispute and all of lifes highs and lows, while the singer reflects on a long and trouble youth. The guitar solo picks up from the slow pace and rocks hard with quick note changes and a quick beat.

5 Hardknox - This is the real rocker on the single, a hard rhythm and a neat guitar melody that quickens as the song goes along and ends in a massive Jimmy Hendrix style meltdown.

6 Morning Sun - The early morning is the best time of day, as the lyrics describe a day, its actually talking about a life time from teens till old age, and has a real emotional feel to it, along with a string section that goes lovely with the slow soft guitar melody, this one might just jerk some tears.

7 So Alone - A smooth ballad of love and romance or lack there of. Sad piano and guitar rhythms rule this truly sad song.

8 The Beginning of the End - A redone version of an old Rockers tune but done in a happier mood and with smoother lyrical styling.

9 Ringing Bells - A song that detail the emotion that goes into a relationship and a proposal. A very happy song with smooth riff and some synthesizer work in the background.

10 For the Good Times (Kris Kristoferson Cover) - Remembering times gone past. Memories haunt us forever.

The album has officially sold 200,000 copies and has reached #1 in Canada and Australia! #3 in the USA, and South America! Altogether reaching #3 in the entire world on its first week of release! Thanks guys, this is what we dreamed of!

As you see, all the copies have been signed by one band member! Yes, every single copy. However, the first 100,000 sold, were signed by the entire band as shown above.

The Rockers 12th album, The End Part Two has officially been set for a February 13th, 2010 release date.

On the other hand, their previous effort The End Part One has sold 3,800,000 copies. The most of any previous Rocker album! It is still climbing and is expected to pass 4 million.
