"Revolution Starts Now"

Monday, September 28, 2009

Well here we go people. Its finally time. I have been so excited about all the fans hearing this record. I have had an amazing week already and its not even half over yet. Tuesday I did an ACM Honors ceremony. I sang a Merle Song and Hank Jr. song. Blake was there too and we hung backstage with some of my all time heroes…Patty Loveless (who I germed horribly), Vince, John Anderson, Steve Wariner, Kenny Rogers and more. But most important….Merle himself. I will fess up, I kissed him on the cheek....TWICE! I just couldn't help myself. I mean, how many opportunities like that am I gonna have? There is a picture to prove it (which I will be hanging in my house). I will post “the kiss” as soon as I can.

Then we did the show at the Ryman. We did the record in sequence and had great response from the crowd. We also did some singles and a few country classics. It was so surreal being there and standing on that stage, especially after everything on Tuesday. Those will be nights that I never forget. EVER! Thanks to everyone who showed up to hang out with us on such a special night. To my family and the Ran Fans, I’m glad you guys were right up front. I love you all for it.

We will be doing a lot of stuff in the next two weeks for the album release. GMA and Letterman on the 29th. Jimmy Fallon on Thursday. Next week, Ellen!!!! I can’t wait. I love her show!

I hope you all enjoy the record and I can’t wait to hear what ya think.

Don't forget, Love a shelter pet

that is so awesome, im so ready for tomorrow, your the singer there is these days! i recorded all your songs on hwy 16, all your songs are incredible and blew me away! "the house that built me" is the one that touched me the most. i also recorded your interviews with lance smith and nan kelly on the countdowns. i will definately be recording your media appearances and ill be record gac nights! tomorrow morning ill be on my way to buy it. next week, i will leave you another comment on this blog what i think about the revolution tracks. oh, about kissing merle haggard, are you people calling you an obsessed stalker? because a lot of your fans that have met you have been called stalkers. i wished i could have been at the ryman but i just couldn't afford the trip. love the songs, they are incredible, it would be awesome if this album went platinum in just a few weeks. but good luck with everything you do, and hope you release another great album in 2011.

Seeing or recording all your appearances!

And the "Revolution" CD is undescrible! I LOVE your last two albums but if you put how good both of those CD's are it still won't get to the amount of amazing of the new album!

RenaeDawn says:

I am so grateful that you and Bev made it possible for us to share that night at the Ryman with you, Miranda. Like I told Scotty and your Nonny, if this album doesn't win Album of the Year, I'm personally burning the Academy of Country Music down. It's just that good that anything less is a travesty of justice.

Enjoy this whirlwind time. Remember to breathe, girl.

Thanks Ran for an unbelievable night at the Ryman,I still can't find
the words to describe the evening and haven't come off the cloud,
I've been walking on since that night!!!! Paul Whitt and I still chuckle over being referred to as "Your Hardcore Guys" as you were
leaving the after-party and giving each of us a Hug!!!
I haven't had a chance yet to get Revolution but will be going into
town real soon to pick up my copies!!!!

Great Pic of You & Merle!!!

Girl, You are the bomb! Been waiting for this cd and bought it today first thing after work. When you released Ex GF I thought, man, her next cd is gonna be epic. You improved so much between Kerosene & Ex and this here Revolution is going to be your signature. You are truly amazing.
Missed you this summer at Jones Beach NY but hope you make it back to these parts in the future.
NY loves you, Target sold out and Best Buy had only a handful.

Keep it up and do not change your goals. We want you around for another 20 years at least.

Vaya con Dios, baby!

One other thing...get yourself on Oprah!! Between her and Ellen, well, talk about a revolution..

OMG I love the new CD! My favorites have to be The House That Built Me and Love Song! I was at your concert at Apple Bee's Park in Lexington KY! You were GREAT! I do wish the rain would have stopped! I will say you handled the rain much better than Jason. Poor thing he didn't want to get wet! HA Please give a big hug to Blake for me! I love him too! Hope to see you on the Outdoor Channel soon. Thats the only time i don't complain about watching it with my husband! GOOD LUCK GIRL! ROLL ON!!!!!!!

Wow! I have been very busy consuming the new album "Revolution!" AMAZING! Miranda is so much more than just beautiful...she is a gifted artist. My favorite song on the CD is "The house that built me." Although I am sure there will be several favorites soon. I listned to this song and it took to me back in time. Memories just poured over me. I even Googled my chilhood address just see it one more time. I came away remembering that hard time don't necessarily mean bad times. I remembered that a strong family dedicated to each other can get through anything. But, mostly I realized that the strong person I am today was bulit on the foundation of my difficult but strengthening childhood. Thank you Miranda for sharing this remarkable album with us!!!

My favorite song is House that built me!!! ...because it made me cry!! and I don't cry!! It took me back to the house where I grew up from 0-14...that is where my childhood was!! I am 24 now and my childhood is what made me the person I am today!! Miranda your CDs are the only ones I can listen to all the way through and love every song!! I hope you are making music until the day you die!
