Hello from Vegas //////////////

Grammys 2010 /////////

this was BY FAR the highlight of the grammy's for me

Valentine's Day Card //////////

My team wanted me to tell you that there's a limited edition Valentine's Day Card inspired by my song, "I Only See You" on my online shop! www.bentonpaul.bigcartel.com. Go grab one! Three cheers,

a day in the life ///////////

i'm working on a second record. it's a daunting task. i hear all kinds of melodies in my head. i'm not sure which i should release to the public. i listen to all genres of music, and i can write in many different styles, so it's a matter of picking and choosing what i want you to hear. it's a big game of risk. i don't mean the board game risk, i mean the high level of chance i will create and release something that you will enjoy whether it be unique, catchy, full of emotion, real, or inspiring; this is my goal.

release date for the new album? not yet. next tour? working some of that out now. what to eat for lunch today? i suggest jimmy johns #1 pepe.

there's a pleasant future waiting for all of us. i'm excited to be a part of this world, and grateful to have such good friends, family, and of course fans! until next time,

I'm On Tour Again /////////////

I'm on tour again! This time with a good friend of mine, David Archuleta.
We kicked off the tour with two amazing shows at The Abravanel Hall in our hometown of Salt Lake City! Next stop: Bakersfield, CA.
Hopefully I'll type a few things here and there to keep you informed to how the tour is going. But if you're craving a little more than this, follow me on Twitter.com/bentonpaul
Happy Thanksgiving to my readers!

Walls & Moon Lyric //////////

more lyric requests...

Benton Paul // "Walls"

It seems like blood has stained this place
From all the noise and tired mistakes
What a waste

How do we clean the mess we made
Is it too late

When the walls come down
And we find higher ground
I can see the sun come out

War can be small, it can be great
Within our homes and in our state
Are we safe

When the walls come down
And we find higher ground
I can see the star come out again

It seems like blood has stained this place


Benton Paul // "Moon"

Everywhere I look today
Things fade away
Nothing ever seems to last
But when I turn to the sky
In your eyes
I see my future and past

Moon, will you keep falling onto my side

Though you're many miles away
That's okay
You always do come back around
If gravity didn't control me
I'd jump off the ground
Into space

Moon, will you keep falling onto my side
Moon, I'm okay knowing that you'll stay the night

Up in the sky two stars align
Up in the sky two stars align tonight
Up in the sky two stars align

Moon, will you keep falling onto my side
Moon, I'm okay knowing that you'll stay the night

Run Lyrics //////////

Lots of people have asked that I post my lyrics to Run... so here you are!


Benton Paul // "Run"

We're moving fast
Faster than ever
Breaking the barrier of the common yesterday
Not looking back
Waving our goodbyes
We stop for no one, turn our heads and run

We're catching up
Up to the moment
In every moment lies a chance to win
It's not enough
To say we matter
Do we matter if we fade away

Run for your life
We're gonna break through the fire and come out alive
Run for your life
No one will ever deny if we survive
So just run

We'll never know
If we don't let go
To the things that hold us and control us
We're catching up
Up to the moment
In every moment lies a chance to win

Run for your life
We're gonna break through the fire and come out alive
Run for your life
No one will ever deny if we survive
So just run

It's not that far
It's not that far
So hold on, and just run

Writing from the Road ////////

I'm so grateful to all my fans and friends for coming out to the shows on this tour. I hope you've enjoyed the free wrist bands, ear buds, and headphones thanks to my tour sponsor iFrogz(.com). They've done a great job in helping me get out on the road and present myself and my products the way I envision.

I don't get much sleep in my personal coffin. Clarification: my coffin is a 7 ft. long, 3 ft. wide, and 3 ft. high sleeping space, equipped with a personal tv and curtain to scare the bed bugs away. The personal tv is misleading, since this space is really not that luxurious to spend 8 hours a night in. However, this is not a complaint, since I've dreamed of being on the road since I was 8 years old. It's quite an exhilarating experience playing shows every night. In fact, I can't think of anything better... well...

David sang with us on stage the other night! It was a pleasant surprise for everyone.


God is love. Music is in the trees and the air you breathe. I'll see you soon.

R & J ////////

A moment I can't forget.
