專輯名稱：In Between Dreams
歌手名稱：Jack Johnson
當初在電台裡聽到他的『GOOD PEOPLE』，馬上殺至唱片行，一翻開來看，咦？這人好眼熟啊XD，得知他存在的契機還是因為衝浪品牌服飾的工作，本來還懷疑，一位衝浪高手如何詮釋流行歌曲，一連串歌曲下來，這張專輯……聽得心花朵朵開，好可愛、好舒服的曲風，播放著它時，好似外邊下著雨，在落地窗前方，和Jack一起坐在沙發上，他敲擊著樂器，我慵懶的聆聽著，自然沉穩、如棉花糖的柔軟、略沙啞、轉音拿捏極佳又漂亮的歌聲，不自覺的心情放得好輕鬆，久違的悠閒風情，即使播放一整天也不煩膩！
專輯文案：
Jack Johnson從小在夏威夷長大，17歲的時候他已經是衝浪界的天才，以最年輕的年紀揚名於世界級衝浪大賽(Pipeline Masters)，正當體壇將他鎖定成海灘明日之星，比賽後一個月，傑克強森在衝浪時發生嚴重意外，臉上縫了150針，讓他整整三個月無法出門，卻也給了他三個月抱著吉他、創作音樂的時光，18歲的他選擇到加州大學唸電影，99年導演並且擔任電影配樂完成了衝浪電影「Thicker Than Water」，初執導演筒的他，贏得各影展最佳導演等大獎，眼見著傑克強森就要加入電影界，新的一波浪潮卻迎面來襲；傑克自彈自唱的歌曲，早期就被衝浪巨星們作成卡帶複製流傳，命運的浪潮意外的把卡帶輾轉流傳到唱片公司老闆的手上…2005年的今天，傑克強森，這個海灘男孩，不只是衝浪天才、不只是得獎導演、他是全球銷量300萬張的創作才子。
「傑克強森Jack Johnson擅長創作氣氛好、感覺對的音樂，簡單的空心吉他搭配他溫煦柔和的嗓音，讓人感覺輕鬆而舒適…」權威音樂網站AMG這樣推崇他的音樂風格。往返夏威夷與洛杉磯兩地，傑克強森於2005年錄製完成最新專輯【仲夏夜之夢】，有著大海般的歌聲加上純熟的吉他彈奏，創作出一首接一首輕鬆愜意、混融民謠、藍調、雷鬼和Bossa Nova的清新作品。簡單卻完美的專輯創作，在沒有商業廣告的加持下，【仲夏夜之夢】卻在美國發行首週，以23萬張的驚人銷售空降全美告示牌專輯榜第2 名，在樂評、樂迷、以及電台DJ的熱情支持下，【仲夏夜之夢】在不到2個月的發行後在全球默默賣出200萬張。

『Good People』非常具有省思的歌詞：
（啊哈，我有中文歌詞，但一點都不想打）
You win
Its your show, now
So whats it gunna be
Cause people
Will tune in
How many train wrecks do we need to see?
Before we lose touch of
We thought this was low
It's bad gettin worse so
[Chorus:]
Whered all the good people go
Ive been changin channels
I dont see them on the tv shows
Whered all the good people go
We got heaps and heaps of what we sow
They got this and that and
With a rattle a tat
Testing one two,
Now whatcha gunna do?
Bad news, misused,
Got too much to lose
Gimme some truth
Now whos side are we on?
Whatever you say
Turn on the boob tube
Im in the mood to obey
So lead me astray by the way, now
Where'd all the good people go?
I've been changin channels
I dont see them on the tv shows
Whered all the good people go
We got heaps and heaps of what we sow
Sitting round feeling far away
So far away but I can feel the debris
Can you feel it?
Yo interrupt me from a friendly conversation
To tell me how great its all gunna be
You might notice some hesitation
Cause whats important to you is not important to me
Way down by the edge of your reasons
Its beginning to show
And all I wanna know is..
Whered all the good people go
Ive been changin channels
I dont see them on the tv shows
Whered all the good people go
We got heaps and heaps of what we sow
They got this and that
With a rattle a tat
Testing one, two
Now what you gonna do?
Bad news, misused, gimme some truth
You got too much to lose
Whose side are we on?
Whatever you say
Run the resolut but in the mood to obey
Station to station desensitizing the nation
