Hey Max, I've been meaning to ask for some time, but kept forgetting due to my current medications, would you ever consider releasing the songs that you'd done in the myspace days on spotify at all? I've missed you waxing lyrical, and frankly, the timbre of your voice has stuck with me for over a decade now! I know you're heaps busy with your musicals, and I couldn't be cheering you on more from Australia, but yeah, I do miss listening to your music more (and Kissed a Girl is GREAT, please don't get me wrong, but I vaguely remember you having a song about a heart breaks or something? your lyrical arrangement and choice of words always stuck with me as being quite powerful... I think some of the lyrics were like "face your fears, and pick your body up, if you can keep it up (or was it keep it shut?)"? I can't remember properly, but it's honestly haunted my dreams and to me, that's freaking powerful! I hope your grandmother mends up soon, and how great that she was able to accept you as non-binary! Absolutely love the jacket, and your eye shadowing! Stay well my amazing friend, we need you in this world!
@@TheMaxVernon I can hardly believe you have all your old one-off videos still up on your channel. Finally, something interesting to do in quarantine :P :D
I changed my name on here from Jared to JB so you may not remember me commenting but again (again!) revisiting your channel. Still listen to your old tracks and have been a huge fan of your singing and composition style since the early days. New musical theater stuff I love too. Everything you do feels like coming home to something emotionally resonant and intellectually stimulating. Just to reply directly to Grant's comment, I'd like to add that you have my favorite cover ever of Headmaster Ritual. Hunted really was haunting and resonant with me back in my own early days. Thanks again for your work.
Sadly she tested positive for Covid-19. She was in the hospital for 10+ days, now she's back in her nursing home in isolation, and will probably be placed in hospice soon :(
@@TheMaxVernon I'm so so sorry. If there's anything a rando on the internet like me can do let me know. Otherwise I'm sending you and yours all of my love.
Oh my god while you are sitting at home bored, can you please remake any video of like your old songs for my 2009. I’m still listening to them in 2020. I would literally die if I hear “around your finger” or “when your body breaks” and “you are” remastered.
Some ones that I played over and over back in the day were "Politburo Technocrats" and "Dear Democracy" and "Hypochondriac Blues" and loved seeing you play some of your Manic Impressions songs live on piano and with a friend of yours (both on the upright and the grand)

That jacket is amazing! Please give us an update on your grandma, I hope she is well. ❤

@@TheMaxVernon So sorry to hear that :'( Best of luck to her and your family in this really trying time

@@FloatingWeeds2 wow! I didn't know anyone remembered those
ah!!!! I'd have to reteach myself how to play them on the piano- my work writing musicals took me away from all those, but i'll meditate on it :P
ruclips.net/video/0EJxMYJmrm8/видео.html Looky looky what I found, grant!
J B like imagine listening to that on repeat on Spotify, that sounds like heaven to me ☺️
that jacket is GORGEOUS, especially the back! if I were you, I'd wear it on my daily state-approved solitary walk.
done!!!
cant wait to see you at joes pub again some day soon!
