      Hi, I am in the UK and received my package several weeks ago but I thought I wouldn't respond until I have really given a few plays. I have done that (and then some!), and I love it! I am listening to Settle Down when in my study - sometimes working, sometimes tinkering and sometimes just sitting, listening. Thank you Julia for this excellent work. Mike in Lowestoft, Suffolk, England!

      I'm loving the music - walked around the river today listening to it on repeat. I'd very much appreciate an update on the package progress after reading of others receiving theirs weeks ago.

      I know it takes time to get all of them out. An update would just ease the angst.

      Thanks, Julia, and congratulations again!

      Julia, I have to say I'm a little concern because it's been almost three weeks since you said the packages were starting to been sent. And I'm even a little more concern because I just read that people from Europe got theirs a week ago. I'm from Mexico and haven't got mine (a 75 dlls. one). Due that I spent most of the day at school I don't know if I miss the delivery and don't know who to contact. I'm freaking out a little bit. I'd much appreciate if you could just inform me if there's still packages that haven't been sent yet.

      I've been listening to the album like 20 times in the last 5 days and I have to say that I love it!

      The quality sound is superb and the ukelele is your sign and it's everywhere! Brilliant! However, maybe because of that I love more the songs with different sounds like "Comatose" or "Pizza". They are like rare pearls. But don't misunderstand me, it is not a criticism; the album is awesome!

      Another thing that I love are the double voices that you make; they definitly lift up the level of the songs!

      The one thing that I have to ask for are the lyrics. I would appreciate you to pass them to your backers because I'm not a native speaker (I'm spanish) and I have difficulties trying to sing along the songs!!!

      All in all, it's a great GREAT job so you must be proud of it! Keep up the level Julia!

      Robin Sharpe on February 25

      I hope you are proud of yourself for this album, because I know I am happy and proud of what you have done. I bet your family is so proud of you as well! Having over 1600 people support your endeavors is an amazing thing and I am sure you realize how much we appreciate your hard work and commitment. You have worked hard to come this far and your talent and experience just keeps getting bigger and better. This is an amazing album and I can't wait to get my rewards in the mail! Rewards are awesome, but I bet even if the only thing people got was a download of the album, you still would have reached your goal. Always know that you are surrounded by the love of your fans (and not creepy stalker love...I hope) and we will support you throughout your career. Thank you for all you have done so far and thank you for making such a beautiful album. I have said this quite a few times....but you should probably tour to Ontario....I'm being selfish and that would make me pretty happy. Love you!

      Rick Giovanetto on February 24

      Julia, some may find this 'Odd', but I've decided to 'Stay Awake,' eat a 'Pizza' and allow your music to 'Lullaby' me until I am 'Comatose.' My best friend tells me 'Nothing's that Great,' but personally I think 'He is Mad.' I have been 'Waiting' for this release and based on my 'First Impressions' 'This Is What I Used to Know' from previous material. 'I Wasn't Worried.' Understand, I am no 'Fair Weather' fan. I'd like to say, 'I Will Go Anywhere With You,' but you might find that a little creepy. 'Maybe I Will' bring a bouquet of 'Balloons' if you ever make it to Peoria, IL. In closing, I say to you, 'Lookout for Yourself!' 'To the Damsels; Run!' 'Into the Sunshine' and everything will be much brighter!

      Must I add that I absolutely love the album? Okay, I'll add that as well.
      I LOVE THE ALBUM!
      Thank you for the music,
      Rick

      I'm halfway through the album and I have to say I am impressed. I'm glad you made me aware of the project via the NSFWshow <>. Stay Awake is one GD good song, I can still def. hear a kinda reggae version of this in my head, though I am also hearing a big orchestral version now.....strange how listening to good music gets the creative juices flowing, now where's my geetar :). ..........@Kristina Maltrud: Chrome browser downloaded from the link and unzipped the mp3 album right into the Downloads folder. Im currently using VLC to play them, but Im just weird like that. hope that helps.

      The album arrived in the mail today. I have to say Julia that while I've loved your albums before this, I was floored by this one. It is just fantastic. I'm so glad you got the opportunity to make this. This is now in my top five favorite albums. Maybe even #1? I'll have to think about that one.

      Thanks so much Julia for the ALBUM!!! Am having a time downloading it however. Any advice for a mac user? iTunes doesn't want to open, neither does quicktime pro for mac... but maybe I just burn a copy? Anyone else have suggestions? Thanks!

      Julia, I donated $75 through PayPal after the project was over. This was an arrangement you and I worked out. At the time, you said that I would still receive all the rewards at the $75 level. I've tried contacting you a number of different ways, and haven't received a response yet. Could you please let me know how to proceed? I haven't received any survey, email, tweet, or anything.

      Thanks.

      those of you who are under $30, you dont need a survey because you're just getting mp3s via internet.

      Hey, Ja,
      I'm sure you're way busy right now preparing to record your songs... but since you mentioned that your dream is to be part of a movie soundtrack, there's a project up now that's asking for soundtrack contributions:

      Congratulations!! Being as big of a fan as I am, being able to see other people who love you equally as much rally around you and raise this amazing amount of money to just be able to hear your music is amazing. I'm so proud to call myself a fan of yours and being in such a fan base as the one you have. All of your fans are truly amazing and I'm proud of you and every single one of them. JuNu lovers, we did it!!
