Hey!!
Sorry it’s been so long since I posted… we’ve been sooo busy with stuff, mainly getting the ‘LOL’ video edited, and getting a proper release for the single. And it’s all in the can, done and dusted. We had ‘LOL’ remixed in America by Grammy-winning engineer John Hampton at Ardent Studios, where my old mate Guy Sebastian recorded, and it’s killer. The ‘LOL’ video is already up on YouTube, but if you haven’t seen it, check it out below.
‘LOL’ is being released by Sony/Stock Exchange, and the physical single hits the stores nationally on April 1, and the new mix can be pre-ordered at Stock Exchange Music’s website. But what does a physical single mean?? It means…
THE TOM J WILLIAMS LOL AUSTRALIAN INSTORE TOUR! I’ll be hitting the road starting in April to come play for you and meet you in locations all over Australia. Can’t wait!! We’ll post the dates and locations on this site, and on MySpace and Facebook as soon as it’s all finalised.
There’s a bunch more news too, stuff I’m gonna be doing soon with other artists, songs I’m writing, AND a brand new song we’re going to release in May to just my fans like we did with ‘LOL’…
OK, gotta run, but more to come! Thanks for your love and support, and I’m hanging to meet as many of you in person as I can, wherever you are.
Peace, Tom xxxxxx
Hey!!
Just wanted to let you know that we’ve shot the LOL video with the help of a bevvie of fans, and it’s looking cool! We had heaps of fun, worked our asses off for 14 hours straight, and got the result! We’re in the editing studio now cutting it up… and I’ll keep you updated. We did a little ‘Making Of’ video, so check it out here.
Thanks heaps for supporting the song, and I can’t wait to hit you with the new trax we’re cooking
MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!!!!
Peace, Tom xxxxxx
Hey!
Just want to thank everyone who enquired about helping out with the ‘LOL’ video… as soon I put my latest video update online a couple of weeks back I got hit with so many requests – before we even got to send out an email to you all! So a dozen or so of my fans are going to be appearing in the video, which I am stoked about.
For those who might have missed out on the chance to be in the video because we just didn’t have the time or manpower to get through all requests – thanks for being so patient… if ‘LOL’ goes off I promise there will be other videos!!
The good news is that just like we did for the ‘LOL’ download, we will be letting all fanbase members check the video online FIRST as soon as it’s edited – so you’ll see it even before Video Hits does! I’ll let you know as soon as I have the finished product.
And before I forget… Merry Xmas and a Happy New Year to everyone! I hope 2010 kicks for you.
As always, thanks for your support – it’s really appreciated. And I can’t wait to show you all the new ‘LOL’ video!
Peace, Tom xxxx
The LOL video will be shot in Adelaide on December 14, 2009. An email will be sent to all www.tomjwilliams.com members shortly outlining how you can apply to be a part of the video shoot. The numbers will be limited, and there will be conditions that you’ll have to meet to be accepted. Check your emails over the next two days for details, and I hope to see you on set!
Peace, Tom xxxx

Heaps of people have asked me for the LOL lyrics, and some even wanted to know who produced the song and played on it, so here it all is!
I was at a party
Got your message
Yeah, started reading
Wasn’t for me
Never thought you’d be so blue
To this boy you’re talking to
OMG babe, who are you kidding…
Told me that you had to go home
Now I know that you’re not alone
Sending him your kisses to my cell
Oh! You make me LOL… L O L!
Have you got blisters
On both thumbs
On minute later
Got another one
How ya keeping your hands free
Punching in while you’re playing me
WTF, what the…?
Told me that you had to go home
Now I know that you’re not alone
Sending him your kisses to my cell
Oh! You make me LOL… L O L!
Told me that you had to go home
Now I know that you’re not alone
Sending him a picture of yourself
Oh! You make me LOL… L O L!
I hit you back with
‘Babe I love you
Let’s get busy’
Sent it to your BFF
