You mean this? Even though Greyson has never mentioned her by name, I think many of the fans have assumed that she was the girl who "broken hearts" was written about. Some fans are even circulating her last name, but I am not going to post that on here. Yeah, L.W.. But according to Greyson's interviews, the song is about two girls. Poor Lauren has a lot of haterz on the net. But let's be honest. At that age kids are just learning about interpersonal relationships. So we don't know who was at fault, or if both were at fault. Sad that the girl has to go through internet terror because of the timing of all this. Last I heard from various posts on the net they have resolved their differences and like many adult couples who split, they now remain friends. I don't believe her name is on Greyson's new red piano.

Thanks to both of you. I consider you both to be "geniuses" for being able to do all this. Not your typical "fan" here,I am disabled, and coming to the board is very entertaining and helps me pass the time. Thanks again to both of you for all you do.

So, I went to the show last night in Atlanta. ... After everybody went through the line, I went up at the end and got e I ended up giving my ticket to the woman's daughter to get signed to be nice b/c she didn't have anything for Cody to sign, but then regretted it b/c I keep all my concert ticket stubs (see, there is my confession... I regret being nice to a 12 year old ),,, . Mapender, I'll send you my ticket if you want it . And may I say publicly to everyone here that it was a delight to meet "mapender". She is truly a goodhearted person. And because she pointed out Mr. Simpson to me I was able to pass on some albums & other gifts for Greyson and his family. Thanks again, Merideth. And thank you for all of the effort that you put into this board that we all enjoy!

I always start from the POV of the bullied child. She MUST have someone to talk to about it. And the person MUST be trustworthy and experienced. The worst possible scenario is when the child has no one to turn to. SUICIDE may seem the only solution. And this is no rare occurrence. WHO TO TURN TO? Parents, friends, teachers etc. They may not be able to completely stop the bullying, but SIMPLY TALKING can be hugely beneficial to a desperate child. From personal experience I can say that knowing HOW to help is not at all easy. A parent wants her child to learn how to cope independently, but not to be traumatised in the process. There's one hell of a dilemma here. Such a fine line between too much interference and laissez faire. Let me admit, I've got it wrong in both directions loads of times. TWO of my children have attempted suicide. I've learned to HATE the A&E department in hospitals. On a more positive note, I recommend a googling of CHILDLINE. It's groundbreaking, hugely successful, government funded initiative in the U.K., offering a toll-free phone helpline to children, with trained counselors, and dealing with any kind of abuse, sexual, physical and of course bullying. Very well said.

Haha, I did get "close" with Greyson on that facebook, and he knows alot about information that hasn't been released yet. I am a bit of a computer nerd, so I tracked his IP address 3 times.. once when he was supposed to be in DC, and the IP did show up as him being in DC. The other time, He was supposed to be in NYC, which again, showed he was actually in NYC. And last night, when he was on his way to Orlando, but this time it came up as "private". So it seems pretty real. Late last year, also, he posted a link saying that if you paid $1 he would become your husband, brother, sister, married to, in a relationship with, or whatever. The money went to a charity, and he posted a link which was connected directly to his official iTunes. He seems pretty real, but you can never be sure. But he DID confirm he was touring with Miranda Cosgrove this summer, on that facebook. In case anyone was wondering I also checked his IP address when he was supposed to be in LA (while he was doing chat) and that showed Redondo Beach (near LA) and I remember reading his apartment was right next to the beach...so perhaps it is/was real but of course until the real Greyson either denies or confirms we may never know? I like the ip addy thing> Keep us posted. All I can tell you is I met & spoke with his tour manager "Lane" tonight & asked her about Facebook & Imposters. She made it clear that Greyson only has one facebook page. I asked her twice if there was anything they could do to protect , all those little girls from an imposter, but she said that there are so many that there is really nothing they can do but rely on parents.

That's cool! We all know some dumb blogger will say something about the drink Greyson is holding :/ Look closely and it appears to be an Ice Cream and Root Beer Float.

I feel we must give some credit to slimjimbo77's channel for being the first to come up with a "Genius" workaround with his "Blue Screen of Death, with (accidental) music" Though the song lost some sound quality, its still a GENIUS move that has so far survived the thought police since April 21.

I would expect "Purple Sky" to be on it. I thought I was familiar with the story of "Purple Sky", but I've never heard it or seen it posted anywhere. Wasn't it some type of Charity release? Anyone know where I can find it?

Awesome, These are a great find greysonchancefansWow that is a nice video, However sound will forever be a problem unless a seperate peripheral microphone is used, which most consumer video cameras don't support, and would probably get you the stink eye from security/managment. And then again, the same would happen if you bring in a pro camera I don't know enough about this. You are probably the expert here. But what about a wireless mic clipped on your shirt? Would that work any better. Next idea would be to get a Front Row Balcony seat & hope they don't notice you way up there with a pro-cam. I think their concern is not so much posting on You Tube but people that would take the HQ recordings & start selling Bootleg DVD's. They don't sell concert DVD's because they want you to buy tickets and come to the show. Unless you are huge like MJ or McCartney & they know you will come anyway.

I was just wondering why facebook allows so many people to open facebook pages with Greyson's name and image. If you do a facebook search of "greyson chance" you get his real page along with ten or more that say "Greyson Chance" exactly. There are several more that say "Greyson Official", Greyson Chance official" or something similar. To me it seems that this could be dangerous to some trusting young girls. Not to mention posers giving Greyson a bad name. Even a search of GrAyson Chance yields many pages, some claiming to be "Official", with all the little girls posting letters to "Greyson". I'm just saying that this could be a bad thing. What do you think about this? And what, if anything, do you think should be done about it?

Hello! Im doing a research project on bullying for school and i wanted to know what you guys think of it. Now i know that nobody's going to say "omg i LOVE bullying" but i want to know your opinion on what should be done and who should do something about it.I've finished all the statistics and facts and stuff but i'm kind of stuck on this part. Thanks<3 My opinions may seem a little radical, but here goes: Years ago, when I went through the police academy, we learned the Criminal Codes and Civil Codes (Laws). While specific Laws, Codes, and terminology may vary, the basic content is the same everywhere. Depending on the circumstances, bullying by voice , print or other visual media could be construed as any of the following: Terroristic Threats, Use of Fighting Words, or Use of Profane and Abusive Language or Robbery by Intimidation. Bullying by physical means, or verbal means that puts you in fear of physical injury, such as pushing, shoving, dragging into a restroom stall, hitting with fists or some other object, depending on the circumstances could result in charges of Battery, Assault, Robbery By Intimidation, or Kidnapping if the bully forces someone from point A to point B (even a short distance). If attitudes in the school administration and local law enforcement would take these crimes seriously & make a few examples, bullying would stop. If I as an adult hit you, threaten you, or call you names with the intent of starting a fight (use of fighting words, etc), they wouldn't hesitate to charge me and take me to Jail at least until I could make bond. When bullying involves two minors, they act like "that's just kids." But if the two minors are voluntarily involved in "sexting" they may haul them off to juvenile hall and charge them with "posession and distribution of child pornography and put it all over the six oclock news. (I am not saying sexting is okay, I'm saying if they treated bullying as seriously as they do "sexting", then bullying would stop real fast). If a minor reports being a victim of bullying then the case should be investigated as seriously as any other crime & if the facts and evidence warrants an arrest, then haul the bully off to jail & let him or her do the perp walk for the TV cameras. When it comes to actual court they could reduce the charges, kick everything down to juvenile court, and use first offender probation to completely expunge (wipe out) the record after the fact. But I guarantee you that a bully being arrested and hauled off to jail and facing serious charges would think twice before doing it again even if all charges and conviction were erased from the record later. My point is Bullying is a CRIME as described above and should be treated as such. Not to minimize my point, but there is occasional justice in this world. Proof that God Exists: Example #2 If Bullies aren't stopped while they are minors then they continue their criminal behavior into adulthood where they end up in prison with lifetime criminal records. Better to arrest them while they are young and the records can be expunged after they've learned their lesson.

Every so often I go back to ... "Uploaded by greyson97 on 28 Apr 2010. Me performing "Paparazzi" by Lady Gaga at Edmond's Sixth Grade Festival. I own no rights to this song." I should love to hear what y'all feel about it now! Still GREAT! And if you add in Newart's 2,002,061 its over 40,000,000. If you add in McMillan355's alternate viewof 3,017,742 then viewings of the performance are over 44,211,016. Of Course this doesn't include viewings on other sites which are uncountable. I still wish Greyson's P.R. staff would use his Youtube account as a Promo vehicle.
