I love your music. I've just now had the time to download it cause I've been moving around a bit lately (drove across the US in 5 days, ha. truth unfortunately). But I now have some of your music on my iPod and I also have 'Here Comes My Baby' by Sons of Admirals, it's what sparked my love for your's, Charlie's, Edd's, and Alex's (<--it took me 5 tries to type in that x) music. Haha Just wanted to say thanks for being so brilliant and making such amazing music, don't stop please (:

TOMTOMTOMTOMTOM i love you soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo much i want to meet you soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo bad. i want you to come to levenworth <3
<3<3<3<3<3<3 :):):):):):):);).i love you tom.

Dear Tom,

i haven't been following you on Youtube for a great amount of time.
but i know your voice is as beautiful as an angel's, a harp, a chime.
and you play more instruments than i can possibly comprehend.
i also truly enjoy the messages that, threw your music, you send.
you are more talented than i have imagined anyone could be.
and i wish someday that i may have the chance for you to meet me.
good luck in the world,
as you sit back and watch your bright future unfurl.

sincerely, DezaRay.

p.s : it's 4:40 am, and i wrote that off the top of my head. i'm proud of it, and i hope you get to read it.
love you, Tom.

Get a facebook :)

My daughter is still awaiting her CD, ordered from your site over three weeks ago and paid for with her hard earned dosh. She's very disappointed not to have got it...

COME TO MELBOURNE! OH GOD DO IT!

I'll cry :'D

No, Tom! Don't go to Melbourne or Brisbane! Ignore Australia all together and come to Wyoming! We have every dessert ever invented by human kind, not to mention endless potential for adventure. Clearly your best option.

Tom, you are simply amazing! and well, you remind me and my friend of a cat, (this is a good thing btw, cats are cute) just thought you'd like to know.. one day i hope too meet you, and see how cat-like you seem in the flesh...
P.S im not actually as weird as i sound.. :) xx

No, Tom come to Brisbane... we have pie and cake and cookies

Yes! Brisbane, Australia! I would come! And I'm sure I could muster up a crowd if that's what it takes! You really have to come down to Australia some time. How bout the end of this year? Stephen (3sixty5days) Is coming down and organising a gathering in Sydney :)

xox

Does anyone know exactly where the old distillery is in london whitechaple for the gig :D will love you long time if anyone does :)

Hello :)
you play ukelele? i am learning at the moment. what are some good songs to learn?

¡Shalom Tom! I'm interested in buying a synthesizer... I'm thinking of buying a microKORG, an Alesis MICRON or maybe a casio (don't know much about these though) Do you have any suggestion(s)?

Agreed, come to Melbourne. We have cookies.

You should come to Melbourne Australia :D

You have beautiful eyes.

Today, my friend thought she saw you in a Chicago airport. But, it wasn't you, Tom. It wasn't, and we were both sad. :(

thats sad :(:(:(:(:(:(:(:(

in case you haven't heard this enough, you're absolutely brilliant x c;

Vv that just makes it sound really complicated.
basically, you are awesome <3 lubb you.

I was posting this to my Tumblr, as a sort of happy-vent/something; I wasn't going to put it as a comment. but ah, why not? -__- it might not really make sense. it's basically me talking about how much, why, I like Tom.

—-

but he’s left-handed, too. he’s hecka musically talented; I admire and look up to it, a lot. especially since I love music, and I do music, too. he writes & does art, too! Reading the blogs & such, I can tell.. he thinks. I love how he *thinks*, speaks eloquently, and has opinions; plus a refreshingly interesting sense of humor. ”amuse and confuse” creativity is wonderful~ I could quote him everyday, and amuse and confuse everyone. xD

not to mention the awesome hair, always; always awesome. plus the fashion sense, and I do like fashion! always cool T-shirts, or cardigans, nice, not overdone style; Leather jackets, great jeans, those button up shirts with collars; black & white stripes. etc. and have to be honest; he is hot! beautiful eyes~

but I’m not a crazy obsessor. I’ve picked up all these observations, and he’s obviously amazing. Just.. everything I like/love to see in a person, all rolled, coincidentally, into one! I can’t stop marveling at that; every single dang trait I admire/strive for/have, is him, in magnified form, right down to the appallingly superfluous musical talent (that I love), intelligence, creativity, distinctly clever humor, prettyness, style, artistry, and nice-ness! and freaking left-handed ness! I just wish I could meet him; and yet sometimes, I feel like his way of thinking is some mysterious different level than everyone else’s. sometimes. Yet, I feel like I get it, yet, I think I don’t; how could I? not like we’ve met.

I just saw a video of you doing "The Prettiest Star" on tmtunes.com. Didn't expect that! ^^ but I liked it.

Hi Tom, I'm Meghan :D

As I'm sure you've already gathered I'm a fan of yours and I just had a quick question for you.

I've made something for you; (Something of a postcard) and I was wondering where exactly to send it to?

Now, I know your fan club lists a P.O box at the end of emails, but I wasn't sure if that was the p.o box that went to you? It's all been confusing lol.

(I should also mention i live in America. )


Thanks so much for reading, hope to hear back soon ^_^


Love, Meghan

Also you can email me and twenty2twilight@aol.com if you don't feel like broadcasting that info <3

your lyrics are brilliant!!!!!!!
i love you!

your sister is so sexy!

You should come to Canada! Also do you have a PO box?

Nice music!!!!!!!!!!!

hi. you should come to the states more often. because i love you and you're music and my dream is to one day hear you live. that would be quite brilliant.
thank you(:

*your

I love your music tom and i was hoping that maybe there was sheet music for the songs somewhere? Preferably on the piano and hopefully for Mixtape? :) Yay! I hope so cuz i really wanna learn your songs! :D

*listening

You were amazing at Vidcon regardless of your illness. I deleted pictures of graduation and my family to film part of your performance...it was worth it. Also, I haven't been able to stop listen to Painfully Mainstream this summer. Thank you.

you rock

Is there any possible way that I'd be able to get the piano music to The World is Mine (I Don't Know Anything) the way you played it on Alex Day's video? (I actually like the acoustic piano-only version better than the one on iTunes!)
I absolutely loveeee the song and it would be amazing to me to be able to learn it myself... so yea... thanks!!

I have been wondering about the same thing.

When are you gonna make a book with all your sheet music in? I would definitely buy it :).

hey Tom!!!
I heard that you lost your voice at vidcon and that really sucks.... But, I saw some vids of you singing and I think that you still did awesome!!! I just had to tell you about that!! :)

TOM
TOM
TOM
Come to LA

He just did ;)

You are pretty frickin' awesome.

yeah, you should really, not..stay in europe..? haha, um..yeah. come to america, pronto? chicago would be better, haha.

Perhaps you could do some "Exploring" with your new harp......?

Tom, I love your hair :) <3

please come to salt lack city utah WE ALL LOVE YOU!!!!!

TOM! bring yourself 2 ireland!!!!
i know loads of people who love ur stuff and think that u r so incredibly talented!!!

A shame I missed last night, I live right down the way from there. Next time you're state side lets book a man of your talents in a proper venue, yea?

umm is it just me or is the internet broken the link to alexdays website takes you to what the buck

that happened to me!!! idk what it is but i'm happy i'm not alone hah

when you try and get on alex's and charlie's websites IT DOESN'T work!!!!!!

This whole place must be quite an ego boast for you :)
All the girls telling you how hot you are ;) xD

(Although I gotta say I must agree xD)

Hey Tom! I know you're busy but I'm sure that everyone including myself would like it if you would write more blogs. Personally I come here everyday looking for new stuff and I wish there was. Well, I just wanted to put that out there. Bye.

I stoped by just to say hi!! :) (hey I rhymed :D)

A few nights ago I dreamt that you married Sharon Osborne. Too much Explorers 4 and 'America's got talent' before bed, I guess O.o

I'm not British.. so I've never heard "fit" used as a compliment before, except to compliment someone who is physically healthy.. o__o but I guess I learned a new word.

I really admire your talent and uniqueness; you don't find that a lot; Painfully Mainstream <3 and I love you.
plus, great hair. always. xD

Happy birthday to me. Happy birthday to me. Happy birthday dear me. Happy birthday to me.

It's my birthday.

Happy birthday, people!

Wow, you're really quite musically talented. I really enjoyed 'Porphyrophobia' and 'They'. I'm kind of hoping the cover is an attempt at being sardonic (those are Corey Delaney glasses), but you're apparently from the UK, so I'm not sure you'd even know who that is. Goodluck with your upcoming gigs - and don't forget to come visit Australia when you've got some time in your schedule.

you're amazing. <3

Basically you kick ass and are too awesome for words. That being said, you did an amazing job with Alex's album. It's absolutely fantastic. The two of you seem to make a great team and I hope that you work with many other artists in the future because your talent seems endless.

This is kinda random.
But I was at the zoo today.
On a tour kinda thing, and we passed by a herd of Scottish Highland Cows
And I was like "OH MY GOD THEY LOOK LIKE TOM."

THE END.

I’d really like to know if your middle initial is O and your initials were TOM which is also your name....

I LOVE your song Indigo, and love that you use colors that aren't boring (Blue, Green, Red, etc.), and instead use colors that are interesting (Egg Shell White, Ultra Marine, and, for that matter, Indigo.). So yay for you and thanks for being awesome!

Tom Milsom! How dare you! I got the shock of my life when I found out you were 21, I thought you were 19. :(
There goes my dreams.

Hiya, Tom!
If you're reading this, I was just wondering: what are the piano chords and other notes you/the cat play for the amazingly wonderful 'Catsong II' song? I'd like to use just that for one of my songs I'm composing. Are they C chords? Em? Please, if you possibly could, email them to me @ ebourgeau@gmail.com
Thanks! BYEEE! :P :)

Or just reply to this. Again, thanks!

I have 6 things to say:
1)Whoa,
2)If I was old enough to drive, I'd go the whole way, without stopping, to L.A.,
3)I wish people, like you, the giggers of the world, would come to the smaller towns,
4)I have told everyone I know about the amazingly arctic Tom Milsom,
5)I love your songs 'Catsongs II (Livia Deliberated)' because of the beat and
'Indigo' because of your exquisitely talented voice and the trumpet (I play trumpet, too), and
6)I looked up porphyrophobia, and that's an extremely confounding, terrifyingly supernatural name for a song! Fear of purple?!?!?!?!?! HAHAHA. Nice word usage, Tom.
(PS I love your last name; Milsomilsomilsomilsomilsomilsomilsomilsomilsom. It's so fun to say!)

For my birthday my sister made me a pizza for dinner. she always colors the crust. We were all trying to figure out if it was blue or purple. My sister (who made the pizza) simply states that it is indigo. We all started singing your song Indigo. My mom just looked at us like we were crazy... I think she's right :D

It seems like that to adults, but that is who we are! We are Tom Milsom fanatics, if you pardon the word! We love him for his wawefonderfully talent, his blue/blonde hair, his music skills, and lots more! Parents usually don't understand that. I know MY mom doesn't! But she already thought I was crazy ('cuz I slightly am XP), so, I personally don't have an excuse.

i think i may skip out of my grounding just to see you play on the 13th. :] <3

My 8 year old niece likes to do interpretive dance to "Song for the Painfully Indie". I thought you would appreciate that.

You. Are. Awesome.

There there anywhere I could get piano music for your Explorers Four? Or any of your other music :)

Oh, I never remembered to ask this...
In your 'What the Buck Song' there is a Wicked reference, right?

Are you a fan?
Lmao ;)

Ever think of coming to Northern Ireland??
We love you over here!
Bring Alex too :D

I love painfully mainstream!!!!!!!

dude explorers 4 is AWESOME!!!!! definitely my favorite so far!

Tom Milsom you are the coolest damn person on the planet.

Hello :) I just saw you in the Here Comes My Baby video! I think you're quite talented and I'm diggin the blue hair :)

and... I love your accent :)

Mr. Milsom could you tell me what is the brand of the shirts you wore on the what the buck song video and now on here comes my baby XXXtra?

Cyberdog! Dunno if they're available outside of the UK, but they're pretty awesome.

Thanks! Yeah I agree.. And they ship it to anywhere in the world apparently, it might come out a little expensive but What the hell!

I just discovered you through Charlie Mcdonnell's channel, and you are wonderful. You have such fantastic lyrical talents as well as a great background in classical that makes your music flow beautifully, in a "deliciously" or as you put it "painfully" indie style. I love it. It is so wonderful to hear you, and I wish that I could meet you. Brilliant work, keep it up!

"...there's no reason to live your whole life being one of a kind" I really love "In C" !! It just makes me want to go outside and paint my hair blue!! XD But now seriously, I think this song has a really nice, loud massage to all "Zombies" out there and It's beautiful! Good job Tom! It makes me sad that I'll probably never meet you :'(

Dear Tom MIlsom,
My friends and I were thrown into a whirlwild of mystery and chaos after riding the TARDIS to 15th century Scotland. Well that's what the coordinates said. However, upon exiting the TARDIS we found ourselves in a strangec ombination of 15th century Scotland, a present day primary school playground, and a concentration camp. Obviously there was something very wrong, probably linked linked to the Pandorica and various cracks in reality. We then saw a message, which we knew was an anagram because Tom Riddle told us so, on a flat vertical suface (possibly a wall) which was partially unscrambled, due to the TARDIS being cool like that. Through various clues placed throughout our surroundings (such as a white rabbit and a message from River Song) we were able to unscramble the remaining letters to form the message "Torchwood song seal ley seam". We interpret this to mean there is a crack in time at the ruins of Torchwood One, which was on a ley line (a thinning between the fabric of realities). Clearly, someone has to find Torchwood One and seal it. And, as we crimped, attempting to find a solution to the trans-atlantic travel problem, we stumbled upon the obvious solution of you, Charlie, Eddplant, and Alex (since you're already in England) going off on an adventure to find the seam and seal it through song as the Sons of Admirals.
P.S. Did we mention we have a dog with a telepathic connection to the Doctor?

Love, your completely sane fans :)

Hahaha! So true!

Fantastic. I love it.

yeah, i think indigo is reallly really good as well:) the piano is really pretty in that one and i think you're voice is cool too. I really like your music style, it's like cool and different, you know? haha:) just thought I'd let you know that i <3 youu
-Kelly

I just wanted to say I love your music and the way you put different instruments together to make an individual sound. I can't wait to own your music in physical copy :) I was also wondering, could you come up north sometime? I think seeing you in person would just be amazing. You probably get that a lot. But still :) I think music says a lot about a person, and your music says you're very interesting, opinionated and have a complicated personality, it'd be great knowing what you're really like. As a last note, I'm not be the first and i won't be the last but I like your hair :)

i like your hair and that is all i have to say

i don't know if you get this alot but i think im in love with you.

if you ever come to America, contact us, because I'll be watching.

I don't know if you get this alot, but I think I am in love with you.

if you ever come to America, cantact us cause i'll be watching.

Your piano playing is incredibly beautiful Mr. Milsom. In C and IOU really caught my heart.

For some, or many of us, just the fact that you can write such beautiful peaces is really a mystery, but you go further, you not only write but play all the instruments and put then together in a lovely song! Now please TOM enlighten us! how do you do it? how do you write a song? What comes first for you? ...the lyrics? ...the chords? ...the melody? How do you arrange the instruments so they sound good together? I understand this can be hard to explain but please try!
here's my contact: thehighskiesoftiago@gmail.com thank you! Goodbye!

Tom, you're so fit it's unreal! Why doesn't Scotland have any guys like you!!!! And btw Tom - working the blue hair, it's awesome!!!!

because you have david tennant :)

tom is soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo damn hot!!!
:DD

Hey, Tom. I just want to say that I find you to be an incredibly interesting and talented person. I would give almost anything to be as talented as you are. As for your albums, I love them. They definitely display the creative, experimental side of you and are different from anything I have ever really heard before, which is totally awesome. I too am an artist of both music and art and have intentions of persuing both in the very near future. As of right now I play three instruments (mainly) including alto sax, piano/keyboard, and electric guitar and am in the process of learning more. I also write music and lyrics. Eventually I would like to get to the point where I can write, perform and produce my own music as a career but I am going to start out in audio production. Thats the plan anyway. If you have any words of wisdom please share and send them my way. They will be greatly appreciated. :D
Here's all my contact info:
epriemer@sbcglobal.net
youtube: eeviedreamer
facebook: Evette Priemer
Thanks! :D

Me too; I also find you incredibly talented. You should be infamous, but, unfortunately, here where I live, NO ONE I KNOW HAS HEARD OF YOU!!!!! Honestly, people! Learn that there's an wawefonderfully (awefully wonderful) guy in the world who plays a variety of instruments, sings quite talentedly, and NEEDS to be RECOGNIZED!!!!!!! (PS I make up amazingly wonderful words so I can fully describe the true talent of people like [you,] Tom.)

i kinda only heard of yu thru charlie and alex day but im glad i did :)
i love it how yur not all that mainstream, sick of pretenstious idiots making crap music

you. are. amazing. great job.

jennyann.patterson93@gmail.com

Hey Tom.
Yeah, i know you probebly wont read this :L But its worth a shot.
Its my best friends birthday on the 15th of July.
I was wondering if you could just....i dunno type back happy birthday or say it on a video to Charlotte price.
I'm doing this massive drawing for her with quotes from friends, pictures ect.
So if i had just a 'Tom Milsom says happy birthday' on it...aah. meh. :D
Argh...hope she doesnt read this....:/ :)
Stay awesome...

Anna. xxx

Here's a bonus: Where I live, it's still your birthday. So, Happy Birthday.

you are fit and a FUCKING GREAT MUSICIAN!! srsly ii <333333 this, and akward ballads for the easily pleased, and painfully mainstream. YOU ARE BRILLLLLLIANT!! AND ii <3333 YOOUU. but not in a stalker-ish way, in just a "i think your fit and fucking brilliant, and maybe if i see you one day somewhere i will run up to you and give you a hug." haha :) xx

omg!!! my friend told me about your music so i thought id check it out and i absolutely love it! U should come to Alabama sometime, cause we love ur music!

Hey Tom ^_^
You are a lyrical genius, and an extremely talented musican and composer.
Your music is better than at least half of the stuff in the charts these days, I am very proud to consider you as part of my generation.
Keep this up and I can see you going far.
Good luck and enjoy it! :)

(= hey tom, i must say i am a very big fan of your music, and i love indigo the absolute most! i look up to you for my own musical inspiration, and just to know that you might read this yourself is fantastic to me! please continue to make your marvelous music. i think you should set higher expectations, and go for the tv! thank you, and goodbye =)

The song IOU makes me cry
...very happy tears

Thank you very much, Tom Milsom, for expressing precisely what I am unable to say.

Thanks so much for surprising us all the time with either weird, totally awesome or completely random stuff

The last days, still having your song "Indigo" in my head, I listened to a TV-commercial for the german supermarket "real".
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZJ0x4MlP9d4

This commercial is using a song by Aniko - "Weil ich dich kenn"
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OY1MxdR9XgY

Is it just me noticing more than a slight similarity here?

Dang. Tom your cute. Just sayin.

thank you so much for yesterday it was awesome. it was frustrating that we had to leave early (annoying train times) so as I am Hattie said " Myabe you can come to cambridge somtime???"

You were SO awesome last night in Bury st Edmunds! You made my birthday extra awesome, and the music was amazing :)
Thanks for the autographs and pictures, eight, nine, mars (cello) :)
Dftba,
Vanieztia

Just want to say you were awsome last night at Buy St Edmunds! It was so cool meeting you guys and to listen to your music! Also, a special hankyou for talking to my friend Thea on the phone, she really loved it cause she couldnt make it to the concert. Myabe you can come to cambridge somtime???

when i saw there was an explorers 4, my first reaction was, "wow tom's certainly had alot of free time lately"
i love the free albums, and its so amazing to have so much new music from you.

Explorers four is amazing.
You are a genius.
Yes you are.
Goodbye.

Hey! I just wanted to tell you that I love all of your music! It never fails to lift my mood. I'm so glad I found you while randomly surfing the web!(which is not a habit of mine) =D Bye!

Enjoying the EP. It's great. :)

Hi,
I just wanted to say thank you for being extraordinarily brilliant (and use my gratitude as a pathetic substitute for my nonexistent credit card) =)

Truly though, thank you very very much.

mwahahaha with the conversion rate it's cheaper to buy your albums on here then on iTunes! :) I've outsmarted the system! :D Also great work and come to Australia sometime please! XD Bring Charlie and Alex with you please ^_^

And edd, you forgot edd.

shit... and edd too! haha I forgot about edd cos he hasn't put a video up on youtube in ages! :(

Hi... I was wondering if you would please come to Denmark, I am a big fan, and it would be so amazing.

Love Trine

So, I think you should come visit the people who love you in Australia... PLEASE!!!

I'll be honest, I did not like Explorers 3. Too random, just not enough 'melody' to catch my ear.

After listening to 30 seconds of Explorers 4 however, I already knew that it would be superior in every way to 3, and I was not disappointed. In my opinion, it is the best one yet.

That's great to hear! I love doing the experimental stuff and getting it out there, and I know there are people who appreciate it a lot, but it's always lovely to return to just making great tunes. I hope it gives you many more hours of enjoyment. :D

It Does Give Us Hours Of Joy! :D

I will. In fact, those 'name your price' thingies always put me on a guilt trip when I grab them for free, so I just downloaded Explorers 4 again in order to be able to pay for it. ;)

Hey. Where is that "Electric Wave" track??? =(

It's Tom Black's friend here, and I was wondering, how much it would cost to get you to play a gig at my friends birthday party. Thanks (: Ciara

Hey Ciara! Send me an email at tommy.firefly@gmail.com and we'll have a chat about it. I'd love to play though, sounds fun!

Emailed (:

love your lyrics and your sound. cant wait to learn more.

Why wont you upload any of your chords or sheets music? :'( I really want to play your songs.

Click on the music tab, and then go to the song you want chords for. He has chords for Painfully Mainstream and Awkward Ballads for the Easily Pleased.

Really? All I can find are the lyrics.

Wait. I found them. They're just not on Awkward Balllads. Thanks.

Explorers 3 sounds a little bit like a small child got a hold of instruments, but beautifully organized at the same time. it's organized madness. I love it.

Yeah. Just wanted to say you're brilliant.
(:

I was wondering where I might be able to buy "Awkward Ballads for the easily pleased." In America.

I live in America, you can buy the album from iTunes, or if you want a hard copy(actual disc) you can go to dftba.com and find it there.

Hey, I just wanted to say "hi" and that I just recently ordered you album. Great Great Songs:) I love your music.

brilliant. genious. love. x

biggest fan (:
ahaha love you cousin x

You are rather fantastic :)
That is all.
DFTBA.

Bonjour = )
I was wondering if you could put up the chords for Awkward Ballads for the Easily Pleased. I love all of your work, and I think it's unfair to the songs on ABFTEP not to allow them to be played by others, as well! <3

Mello :)
I love Autumnsong, I was wondering if u had the sheet music for it so that my band could do a cover of it? :D
Thanks
Ps. You're cool :)
xx

seriously can't stop listening to your music. so refreshing and fun.
thanks for the tunes, and i hope you (and your equally talented friends) keep up the great work! i don't know what I would do without my tom/charlie/alex fixes!
Thanks again!

Hey Tom!! :) I LOVE your songs! You are so great and amazingly talented! Truly inspirational! :) I'm a singer myself!

http://www.youtube.com/user/cancerkat27

maybe check that out if you want to? :)

More power to you and your AWESOME music, Tom! :)

ure sooo talented lol luv yar chuunes keep it upp or i shall cryy :L x

ha, I love the cover of Painfully Mainstream

LOL Read the coment below !

I have a question for you Tom. Do you have an xtube account? Have you ever posted anything on it? Have you ever posted naked pictures of yourself anywhere? You seem like you would be the type.... (That's not a bad thing.)

LOL.

what would my username be? sexyhungukuleleboy89? xxwankyteenagerwith*issues*xx?

In short, no.

7 inches isn't hung Tom ;)

LMFAO!

haha

how about sexachordal?

xxwankyteenagerwith*issues*xx

ROFL!!!!

You would not understand how much of a MASSIVE hug I want to give you for putting all those chords online.
You're fab Mr Milsom, Simply Fab

If you put the chords online for Awkward Ballads for the easily pleased online I think I would die of over excitement (yes in that way) <3
Bex xx

i second that! :)

Oh yeah, well I third that!
in fact i lessthanthree that!

:D

Your songs inspired me to write. Thankyou :)

Can you put the chords to Explorers 2 on here? :)

Incase you didn't know, you're amazing. NEVER forget that. :)

My favorite song off of you're painfully mainstream cd would definitally have too be Indigo it is my ultimate favorite song.
I've already listened too it 6 Times today ;)

Tom, I really like you, your videos and your music. I have actually bought BOTH your albums (even bought 2 copies of Painfully Mainstream). I have also tired to support your A.L.M. "periodical" but I am not very happy with that purchase. It wasn't inexpensive and I only got the three initial issues (that were previous issues at the time) and haven't recieved anything else in over 5 months. I really don't know what to think but I am pretty discouraged. Don't want to make too big of a fuss(yet), but not getting a good vibe from this (or maybe there is an oversight and I just didn't get mine). Please let me know what is up. I would like to be able to purchase from you in the future with confidence that what I ordered will get delivered in a timely manner. Respectfully submitted -Rob Your email under Contacts does not work!

Yeah, I know, right.

ALM4 is taking freakin' ages, and it might not even live up to your expectations. Fact is, each page takes anything from one to ten hours to properly plan and draw, and I've been creating a lot of free content lately and planning my tour as well. There have only been three issues so far, and the fourth isn't far away.

Tom

Thanks for the quick reply, I will try to just be patient. Again,I really enjoy all you do keep up the good work.
Rob

I can't see Explorers 1 on your BandCamp. Is it still there?

Nevermind, it's there now and I've downloaded it. It seems whatever went wrong has been fixed.

I kinda like it,but if I listen to it a few more times then I will probably love it
Tom you are an amazing singer and song writer! I luv you and your music

I've been looking for a while as to where I can get a hold of your more electronic stuff (e.g. The song at the beginning of your "We Are All Animals" video) but haven't had any luck.

If these are available, or are going to be, then please let me know as they're fab. :]

Hello, check out Tom's free EPs and podcast using the links on the top of the page (Music - Other Releases)

You may also like to check out his bandcamp page http://tommilsom.bandcamp.com

I believe the track you're refering to in the Upload Tour video is '2.5(10)' which used to be available free on this site before the redesign (I'm not sure if this is the correct name for the track, it is what the file I downloaded was titled). I agree this song is really excellent as were a lot of the similarly named electronic tracks. I'd love to see them on an EP. For now some of theese tracks make up part of the podcast.

The first track in your Upload Tour introduction video was fantastic too. (b'-')b

i never knew that i would love a musician with a ukulele...but wow yeah... you made it :)
you've got a smashing voice and the viewer or listener can see/hear that you've got much fun.
and i have to admit that you're very talented :)
keep it up!

SHIT.

eww shut itt iyy

Wow tom it is amazing xxxxx

Hi Tom! I love your music! Basically you inspired me to get into the "music world" :b I now play the guitar, the ukulele and the piano(not nearly as good as you but)... And I want to learn to play more instruments and compose, well like you...
 I look forward to hear from you! :) Bye!

Virgin Material....brb

You are ... just completely incredible. I love your music, I will admit to never buying one of your CD's. But, to be honest, I now aspire to do so. To be, again, honest (a new years resolution?), I must say that I love your writing on this blog. It skirts just on the edge of poetry without sinking into that brutal calamity of misunderstanding that poetry is often associated with. I adored your YouTube video: animals, but was unable to comment because I have forgotten my password for my YouTube account at least seventy times, and I belive if I ask YouTube for my password one more time, it will assume that I am a terrorist, and destroy my computer. In short, I am convinced that you are the greatest incarnation of young genious I have ever had the pleasure as identifying as a part of my generation.

thank you, and BEST WISHES!

Tom your freaking awesome!!! you have a great voice!!! and wow charlie is in this video!!! i love charlie :)

i reckon ur fitt!!!!!! how old r u coz well ur very hott!!!! i luv u !!! t.c

i agree wid thatt hahha x

h1s cock is SO NIEC

I adore you.

hahah funny x

He's 20...

Definately one of the most talented musicians of our generation. I can't believe how painfully beautiful your music is. Truly pleasurable to listen to and good for the soul. Keep on making music, Tom. I can't wait for more!!

My name is Tom. Well Thomas but you know. Hi .

I loved this song already, but I just played the video and my dad happened to be listening and he loves it too... should I be worried, or just awed at my dad's fantastic taste in music...?

you are truly, truly talented.
thank you so much for your wonderful music

i think your cute and you have a great voice. keep it up!! :)

Dear Tom,
From what I've gathered from this website/ stalker-feed, you are a pretty cool guy for the following reasons

A) You're music is simply amazing;
B) Awesome taste in music. What other bands do you listen to other than NMH and the flaming lips?;
C) You read Questionable Content;
D) You are spectacularly attractive.

Also: I cannot wait to recieve Painfully Mainstream via these real-world physics you speak of!

First of all, congratulations. It's not the easiest thing to find someone with your depth of musical understanding, even more in your age line. I listen to most of your album and was very well surprised to see a wide research within your musical language. So again, congratulations. If you keep tracking that path you will achieve a very fine level of refinement.

I do have, though, a few technical observations: It would be very effective to work on your breath support. There's some heavy breathing in the fast pace songs and that affects the pitch on your voice. Another thing is the diction. I do realize that you're not trying too be as intelligible as someone speaking but some of the text gets a bit choked.

I believe that's all. My intentions were the best possible! :)

My brother showed me your video and we both love it! Great job, man, I shall check out your other videos and I'm looking forward to more! :)

I have a confession to make. A friend gave me this link and I thought "Oh great, another teenager who thinks he can conquer the world" but after seeing the video, I must admit you are very talented. Keep up the great work. I'll be back to check on your progress.

Please post your chords on here :D

Hello Tom, I was wondering if maybe, you could be such a lovely and wonderful person and post the cords for your music? Pretty please? With a cherry on top? (P.S you are awesome! :D )

I came across your stuff by accident... one of my favourite songs is "Indigo" by Moloko...and I hadn't seen the clip for a while so I jumped on ye olde youtube ... watched the clip.. got my fill and then your "Indigo" was in the related videos... clicked... and loved it. Just bought both your albums on iTunes... Keep the awesomeness coming!

Tom, you should get a glogster account! Glogster is for creative people like you, if you make one tell me and we can be friends!

Tom I absolutely love all your songs, they're all awesome and I seriously can't decide which one's my favorite. D F T B A!

Tom, I have been writing a musical recently and I was wondering if I could use "They" and "Rhyme and Reason" in it as the songs fit the situations I need songs for

Hi Tom, I have recently been making photos into cartoons and I think I might use a picture of you to make one if I do I'll email you.

Tom...Could you be really nice and stuff, and post the ukulele chords for your songs here...please =D

Hi Tom, just received your second album from DFTBA today. Already listened to it on here, I think it's a fabulous album and a natural progression from your first (which I also loved and own :-) ). I don't often buy music (radio and Spotify FTW!) but make an effort for those that I feel passionate about and deserve my hard-earned money - like yourself. Keep up the fantastic work and I can't wait for the third album!

Your first album was SO MUCH better than this. I hear way too much fancy production, none of the simple heartfelt songs like "We made a film". (And the cover, please!! How about some artwork that you're also very good at?) A little piano, a little bass or drum, but mainly your talent, your unique voice and amazing lyrics. It was all there on the 1st album, with so much promise. Please don't lose it, maybe you should unload DFTBA, and get back to you.

Hey Tom
I saw someone who looked just like you in sutton last week
but i doubt you we're anywhere neat Sutton :/
It would have been so great if it was you though :)

Hey, Saw you at the Sheffield Gathering today! I didn't speak to you for long, but I'm the guy who was complimenting the song Indigo, I didn't want to bother you too much! Great work, and thanks for turning up which is more than what we can say for some *cough* Phil.

hello i like your music i also like your face i am in ICT and i am very bored anyway great music love alice

See, ; i din't forget to bolg, that's balg; or rather blog Did that say shalom; happy hanukah to you two I love your musick and sick faces---it's really quite a hoot

Tom, you are a wonderful musician.
I have been listening to you for about a year now, but have never commented, rated or subscribed. :O . That might be because i don't actually have a Youtube account, but, you know.. :)
BUT i have bought your CD.
Indigo and Song for the Painfully Indie are my favorite songs at the moment. Carry on making great music, Megan. :D xx

Haha, loved it!!! ^___^

very talented!

My favorite song so far is totally Internet Love Song. It's one of your older ones but its great :D
Maybe you could put up the chords for the ukulele on your website or send them to me, I've been playing for quite awhile and would love to know the chords. Keep coming out with more songs :)

nice post

Tom,
know what would be amazing? if you could put up the chords to all of your songs on this website...? I've worked out a few of them, but I've only just started the ukulele and, being Tom Milsom, you have to use all the tricky chords and strumming patterns. I've heard it's pretty amusing watching me trying to make sense of your hands when you play the chords left handed/upside down and at the speed of some mad animal, however I'm sure many would appreciate this gesture? <333

Your beautiful music has helped me cope with the corruption here in Gotham.
I will bring the villains to justice, because rhymes have reason to me again.

one day i shall defeat you...

by the way that was The Joker....

are you really batman?

Hey, Tom.
Nice site for your music and ect.
Im hopefully going to buy yout album....er...in couple of days...hopefully, well, I most likely so - when I get some money. But I will try!
So...er..yeah... I'll go now. Bye.
Bye?...er...yeah, going now.

hello :D

TOM! howcome i can't find "all my little words" on any of your cd's ?? i'm so bloody addicted to that song right now :D

All My Little Words is a song by The Magnetic Fields. It is not a Tom Milsom original.

Song for the Painfully Indie is currently holding the spot of "song I'm currently in love with". Cheers.

hi, Tom and many other people who will scroll down!

just wanted to say thanks to you Tom. you make good music,and comics, and i like what you do! i hope you keep expressing yourself and making us all happy, which hopefully makes you happy too...i think it does! oh and Ireland would welcome a good gig from you if you were up for it!!? pweeeez? ^_^

Harley xxx

This is brilliant man! Really glad I ran up on it!
Keep making music...

your amazing
i love you <3

Hi

Nice toon. Rupert. Huddersfield University.

Luv your work!

Christmas is to far away to wait for your CD oh well it will be worth the wait!! :)

hey Tom, saw you at the NYC release party and absolutely loved you and the crew of other great performers you brought along with you. can't wait until the next time you come back to America so I can see you live again. Maybe I'll actually catch that picture of you kissing Alex's cheek next time. ;].

best wishes,
Danii Christina

Ok...Tom...
You have NO IDEA how much I love your music
well....im not OBSESSED....i mean i don't stare at pictures of you that are on my wall
but still
I think you are amazing :D
And i have had only 1 chance to go and see you, but my parents didn't let me
so if you could play another gig in London that would be FRIGGIN' AMAZING
you are like my idol (along with alex day and charlie mcdonnell) and I hope you get to read this and see how much you are appreciated.
i love you so so much :D
your #1 fan
katie xx

i just re-read this....
1) i sound like a freak :S
2) it sounds like i have pictures of you up on my wall...I DON'T. im not a pervert or a paedophile or a freak or anything like that :)

x

I have a picture of Tom on my wall. I'm looking at it right now.

Can you really be a pedophile if he's 20?

You should really have Painfully Mainstream released on Napster caues thats the only way i can buy music....

Yo! Plan a stop in Charlotte, NC!

Oh yes. That would have been a fantastic idea. *sigh*

Aren't you the girl that makes videos on Youtube?
I mean, that doesn't narrow it down at all, but I'm pretty sure I saw some of your videos, being all overly enthusiastic about stuff.
Haha.

well, aside from bright eyes, the hush sound, and some oldies favorites you're one of my favored artists at the moment.

it's nice to know you're so multi-talented, but thus far i've only ventured to check out your music, and i'm glad i've happened upon it.

continue to write appealing music for your hoards of fans (i know, it must be so hard to have an accent and flip your hair), but you have confidence which makes itself known when you make a video.

this is getting really long know, but i hope to listen to lots of your songs and either memorize them into my mental radio, or simply buy your CD. i'll probably go with the latter,

adioz sir, good luck, and thanks!

Tom, you are a clever, clever guy. Your music makes me happy...(woo happiness!) i wonder the same question as Michael - Do you plan to tour Scotland? If you do, Please inform us!
Caitlin.

Yay Scotland ;)

haha tom all the people posting on here are lovestruck girls...maybe you should do something about that...like become a pro wrestler or something

only dont because i love your music too much

I absolutley love your music and I'm sorry to admit this but...
I'm gonna try to download your songs for free :(
Sorry! Times are tough and I gotta do what I gotta do to get my daily fill of Hexachordal :)
I'll buy all of your stuff if you come to the US.
Particulaarly, D.C.

Ok just bought your CD now all i have to do is wait.............man it better get here soon can't wait!!!!:):)

your much awaited CD arrived today via Royal Post. the wait was well worth it. i was overwhelmed by your beautiful melodies, your witty lyrics, and your expressive voice. i love the intimacy of your ballads. your CD is a sheer pleasure to listen to. thanks

Utter MAN and GOD

just thought i'd say thank you.

hello..ok this is weird..(first time.so just hear me out)
i was blissed that i(all of a sudden)found ur vedio in youtube this year,actually five days ago.Well now, i feel such a complete retard to say that you are awesome and funny,and you already have an album fgs..sigh..

Hey man i just found your music and stuff its really awesome i love it your pure genius!

from the other side of the world little old New Zealand :)

i'm pissed. i've been a fan of your for quite some time. tonight i thought i'd check in, its been awhile, and hear "Why I Shouldn't Have Let You In" and i found out you have name beside Hexacordal, you have a website, and a CD. to add further insult to injury i discovered you were here in San Francisco in July and i missed you. Dolores Park is such a nice venue. i hope the crowd was appreciative. so now what? i became a fan of yours on facebook and i consoled myself by ordering your cd.

LIMES.

Hey I just wanted to say how awesome this page is and how it should really check out mine because they are alot alike.

I love your music

Ok, you got me. I just bought Arkward Ballads. I hope you're happy now. And by the way... come to Munich. It's great. And it loves you.

Hey, I just saw one of your live videos, AND I THINK I'M LOVIN' IT. New Zealand loves your music!

your music just made my day!...or better, my night, coming from late-shift. Bought your ballads and shallow ocean. Greetings from not-so-far-away Switzerland :)

I enjoyed the Central Park gathering as well! You were very friendly to everyone, saying hello to people who walked by. My parents had me put the CD in the car on the way to church the next morning and they especially enjoyed Livia Lives. My dad likes cats.

I luv the clickity-clicky picure!
You should come to Australia- perth preferably. :D

come to Canada.
please?

I totally had so much fun in Central Park this weekend. You were so funny! Thanks for sharing your music with us, and I'm totally loving your new album.

Hey Tom

Just a quick post to say that I really admire your work and you have prompted me to start writing my own!!!

Do you plan to tour Scotland???

Michael

I am not sure what you are better at; writing songs, singing, drawing cartoons, or drawing abstract art.

You're my god (:

Oh my goodness what is all this "new layout" business.

This website is awesome Tom!

COME TO AUSTRALIA!

Hey, your music is amazing. You should really come to Canada! We love you here, too!
