aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!
Do I sound excited??
Well, I am. Thanks to all of you lovely people, I have moved on to the final 3 of the Crash the Super Bowl Contest. Remember that you can vote EVERY day, for THREE weeks!! (yes, this time they tack on another week just to make us all slightly more insane). Three weeks of daily voting... man. But I think we can do it. :)
In other news-- I was the first story of the year on Diggnation!! Go watch it:

I'm the first thing Kevin and Alex talk about after tea-steeping. Kevin and Alex were talking about me!! Wha??? How cool, man. I say they should be in my next music video. They would be excellent back up dancers.
In other other news, this Friday I will be making a legitimate music video in Los Angeles for "Message From Your Heart," complete with real-live director, wardrobe, and everything. I am so excited! I just read over the "treatment" (concept) for the video and it sounds so fun. I can't wait until I can share it with everyone.
Yayyy. This is so fun.

@chris from austria
haha, thanks for checking. cdbaby is great! they're actually running low (or are out currently) on physical cds, so mp3s might be the better solution!

Wow - very cool, and a well deserved congratulations. Try to incorporate a boa constrictor in the video ala Tia Carerre in Wayne's World.

What incredibly fortunate timing; I have exactly 3 weeks of nothing to accomplish!
But on to more important points; congratulations on your advancement! Try to get some sleep at some point, eh? 3 weeks of little-to-no sleep might not be so good for you, and I'm sure none of your fans want to see you get sick!
But anyways, best of luck!
Congratulation from Germany. I watched every of your Youtube Videos more than one time!
Good Luck!
Gruß
Pascal

Lets go to the Google Polls:
Google search for "Landon Austin": 1,550 Results

I knew you would make it :-) Congratulations!
Just voted for you and intend to do so everyday.
Greetings
I stumbled across a video of you on youtube strictly by accident, and I couldn't stop watching all of the things you've posted! And then I realized that it was for a contest, and couldn't wait until today to find out if you made it. And you did! Congratulations, and I'll be voting for you every day :)
Woohoo! Rockin! That is so exciting! You're gonna be great at this music video thing having no problem looking into the camera as if it were human.
And thanks for playing such an appropriate/amazing song today. I am just about to leave everything I know and drive across the country following my heart. Your song is giving me that extra little boost to hit the road and not look back. THANKS!
ps. You look great!
pps. Cool paintings in the background!
That's so awesome, I'm really happy for you! :>
Yay!
Congrats girl!
Now it's three weeks of hardcore voting!!
Good luck with shooting the video and the upcoming three weeks!
kina u should create yourself like 10 accounts. im pretty sure u did that already
Wow, congratulations!
I am so excited!
It was awesome that you put köszönöm ("thank you" in hungarian) in the list of 'thank you's! :o)
(that's where I live and have been voting from!!)
Ah Kina, I just watch your video (I couldn't do it at work... damn it)
Once again, you're so.....
I can't find a word strong enough to say that, but you are awesome!!!
Yay Kina!!! Congrats, congrats, congrats. I had trouble falling asleep last night beacause I was so anxious to hear the news and then I woke up at a quarter to 6 without my alarm! I can't imagine what you must've been going through. We're all soo excited for you here, and as my dad told your dad "We're doing all the voting we can muster!"
Love,
Rachel and the rest of the East Coast Grannises
Kina way to go girl! Congratulations!
Gosh i'm so happy for you (and myself) you made it through. You're gonna win this contest!
It's all written before me by others, anyway, i am so happy for you, and it was great to read thank you in my language.
Congrats, you have my votes :D
(and hi to Chris, looks like i'm not the only one from hungary -who is named also Chris, btw- :) )
p.s.: i hope you won't run out of songs in the following three weeks ;)
Congrats!! I KNEW you would make the top 3, and will have your music video in the super bowl!! You are just way too talented not to. And then I can say, "Kina? Oh yes, I knew her way back when...." :) I am sooooo excited for you!
ummm... heck yes!
best birthday present ever :)
AHh!!! Yes!!! I was going to request this song right when I came home today. Oh this is so exciting!! TOP THREE!! MUSIC VidEO!!! SUPERBOWL!! AHHH!!! omg I'm ready to vote again every day for 3 weeks now!!! Bring on the email reminders!!!!
=)
WOOHOOO!!!!! CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!
So I came early to listen to the video and read the blog but then I being rushed out of the house I forgot to comment, and I come back now and see the "HUGE CORRECTION" and the thanks to the Liasonites...and as a Liasonite...I feel so touched you are thanking them esspecially...I love "Ours to Keep" and you sing it so beautifully.
Last time, everytime I tried voting for you during the first 2 weeks I couldn't cause it was not working for me. But I will continue to try during the next 3 weeks!!!
You so deserve to win!!!
Oh and once again I loved the song you sang.
-Jen-
i enjoyed the language session miss kina. thank you hehe. i only had to look up 2 of them but not to know what they meant. my favorite thank you is grazie!(italian) not because i am italian but because its the most fun to say in my opinion. plus i've lived in an italian household for part of my adolescent life.
you've probably heard this many times, but i know you will win. my reason to this conclusion is because you are the only candidate in the contest who has more fans worldwide. just looking at some of the comments i see here can attest to that; and plenty more. i can also assure you that my magnet is very strong.
molto amore
Jen, if it does not work at first, I suggest you switch browsers. I know it does not work for me in firefox because I have adblock plus. Just a thought...
shukriya ?
*suprised*
have you been to the 'maldives' (maldive islands) by any chance ?
.. btw ... amazing voice :) cheers.
Hey kina,
I just wanted to let you know I found out about you through Digg and that I really like your music. Sometimes I just play the youtube videos to hear the songs. So good luck with your music, and thanks for doing what you do.
-t.
p.s. congrats on the super bowl contest, i'll be sure to vote for you.
Wow, congratulations!!!
Although, really, I never doubted you wouldn't make it :p
They're making it hard on us as well though, having to actually log in and vote every single day and not forget for three straight weeks! That'll take dedication... the kind that only you deserve ;)
