Of course we don't know if it's on the album, but I think it would be great if Mark Bright incorporates that element of Danny's voice on the album. It's not outside the box in country music, per se.</blockquote> I'm curious about this also. When Danny did that longer concert at the MSMC college anniversary, he did several R&B / Motown songs (and also did country songs plus a few from other genres). At the time, it surprised me a little as he was signed to a country label, but thought it was a transitional event. Maybe not, as I Still Believe is very bluesy, and he's also included Back at One (originally by Brian McKnight) in at least some of the country music radio stops. Now we're seeing that both of those plus this new R&B-ish one were in his City Limits set along with the more typically country songs. Danny talked for a while before he was signed about exploring a path to do 'modern soul country'. Maybe there is more soul in the plan than we've realized based on the first three songs that came to light.

Of course we don't know if it's on the album, but I think it would be great if Mark Bright incorporates that element of Danny's voice on the album. It's not outside the box in country music, per se. I remember a thread a few weeks ago where I was giving some examples of songs/artists where country/rock/soul seem to intersect, e.g. the Fabulous Thunderbirds. I'd love that from Danny. He seemed to be really getting into that song, didn't he! (I guess the girl who screamed "I love you" at the end did too!). I am getting more and more excited about his album coming out, can't wait to hear what they do. I think it is going to be really good. I like that R&B sounding song.

I still Believe My Best Days (encore) The ??? must be that real R&B sounding song that conchcast posted above. Mystery song, esp with bar background noise; not sure if its a cover or original.

Country radio station WQMX has been promoting an upcoming appearance by Danny at their Country Night Out, hosted by a club called Legend's. The following week, Danny has another evening performance at Coyote Joe's in Charlotte NC, on a joint billing with David Nail, Phil Vassar and Mallory Hope. Would love to go to that one, not sure I can make it work. I think that’s right about another upcoming date in Ohio.

It's got to be a cover, though, as it doesn't sound country in the least bit. It's hard to imagine that being on Danny's album. But he sounds great! Thanks for posting these vids from Raleigh! I was supposed to be there, so it makes me a little sad to watch. From all accounts, it seems like the show was a success!

He is working with great people who are supporting him and he is playing the kind of music that he enjoys. Live performances are definitely his thing.

Danny is such a great live performer - he really enjoyed interacting with the audience. I really like all Danny's new songs so far. Can't wait to hear the studio version of Tiny Life. I suspect Danny's second single will be a ballad since they went with an uptempo single first.

From a rep with Mercy: kyle_e_weaver: Danny Gokey performing @ the Mercy Charity Ball in NW Arkansas! Thanks Danny. http://yfrog.com/1dtqhvj Local Fox station also covered it with an article and video, where Danny is mentioned and appears briefly. That station also had some coverage leading up to the event, did seem they treat it like a big deal in that area. http://nwahomepage.com/content/fulltext/?cid=139072 I’m not sure if any video will leak out from the Mercy fundraiser, but there were some tweets about how well it went, and one with a pic.

I especially think Tiny Life will be really good. Now, will we hear anything from the Mercy Charity Ball. This is pretty high profile - I really would like to know and see more about how this went.
