Hi Paul,

You have incredible control over your singing voice, the likes of which I've never heard before, and I can't get enough. I hope to see you perform one day. Your guitar skills are also extremely tight and it's obvious you really care about your music. Thanks for all the fantastic moments you've shared over the years!

Cheers,
Fintan

Hello Paul...
just listening to a playlist with my favourite Tina Turner-recordings in the middle of the night, and when "Paradise is Here" came on I felt the need to look for your homepage... so here I am.
All I can say, being a singer/songwriter myself (mostly busking,,, which is no
easy task as one gers older... lol... I'm 56 years of age now!): What a great list of songs and collabs (including one of my forever heroes Carole King... I honestly envy you for this and, btw, love that album, I think it's madly underrated!)...
hats off to everything you have achieved (and given to the world of music).
I hope you're safe and well during these difficult times, thanks for all the listening pleasure.... (neither covers of your songs nor Carole's are to be found
on my site, sry... !) please stay healthy and may god bless you and your loved ones.... that's all I wanted to say... yours - Roop

Hi Paul, I started listening to you back in the 1970s in our bedsit we played our Johnston's Vinyl LP so much we all knew the words by heart of "Continental Trailways Bus" I was totally blown away when I heard and saw Arthur Mc Bride at a Cinema in Dublin mid - seventies and everything that you have done since then you just keep getting better and better. I have admired your music so much that I have sent Vinyl Albums to France , England and lots to my friends in Ireland. I also turned Steve Cooney onto your music within days of him arriving in Ireland and took him to one of your concerts I knew that as a fellow musician that he would be blow away with your music I think that he may have got to play with you at some stage. Your voice your songs touch the heart and your guitar playing and musicality are exceptional and world class. When my friend who has been listening to music for the past 40 years heard "Nobody Knows" she said that this song touched her like no other song had. That's what you do to people with your incredible music I am wishing a long and continued successful career I have been to many of your concerts and hope to attend many more in the future. Very best regards John M Dublin

Hi Paul,
Just watching a re-run of your appearance on the 'Transatlantic Sessions' - you are a legend both nationally and internationally.
For the many, many years of musical pleasure you have given me and millions of others around the world I thank you sincerely.
Yours in music,
Mick

Paul. Such a treat to listen to Arthur McBride testerday on St. Patrick's day. I was too weak after that (in a good way! ) to listen to "Lakes of P".... I have been an admiring follower of your music over the years.
Maybe an ignorant question: I was searching to see if you ever covered The Parting Glass.... There is a lovely cover as seen in RTE. Don't Know the singer. Was going to send the song to an English friend whose (Irish) mother just passed in England. Pandemic, ugh. Nontheless, it is still a beautiful world - as in your new song.

BTW I went to school with you v early days ("Infants") in Strabane! Remember the chestnut trees and the smell of small bottles of creamy icy milk? There is a song there for sure! My dad and your mom taught together. Sending you my best Paul, and to yours. Thanks for the music.

Hi Paul, relistening to the NCH concert this evening from November last - continues to pick my spirits up at this difficult time for us all. 'Follow On' is possibly the best song I didn't know i've known all my life and has kept me perpetually going in this lockdown. We will brave the stormy weather. All the best to you and yours.

Hello!

I am quite new to your music but I really love listening to your back catalogue. I am a big folk music fan and I stumbled on The Johnstons by accident really and loved it. I am becoming quite a big fan of your music, it is outstanding indeed. All my best to you and yours and stay safe.

Love from Iceland,

Paul, any chance you're going to rerelease the original Hard Station (non American Remix) on vinyl?

Heard Paul's version of Paddy's Green Shamrock Shore on Irish Pub radio - love it... Any Idea what harmonica is used in that song - maybe not a harmonica???

Hi Paul, when are you across to Los Angles- we R originally from NI, relations of a famous poet (Seamus) you have a lot of fans here- dinner at my house in Cheviot hills!!
