Johnson was also a band from Sydney, Australia. Band members met in 2000, and formed a group in 2001 with Simon R. Berckelman on vocals/electrical guitar, Mr C. E. Southwood on the drums, Rabone Hogan on vocals/bass guitar, and Joel Beeson on vocals/organ/clavinet. Their music draws inspiration from the 70's funk/psychedelic soul/black rock era (from garageband.com). They were signed to indie label Motherlovin' Records.
They have since released 3 recordings; one disc was named "White Boy Funk", and the most recent was called "Motown Won't Return My Calls". They have played sell-out shows at a number of local pubs and clubs around Sydney, including The Annandale Hotel, The Gaelic Club, The Hopetoun Hotel and The Metro, which saw them quickly rise in popularity, gaining attention for their quirky on-stage personalities and addictive tunes.
They also received considerable airplay on radio stations such as FBi, Triple J and 2SER, which helped to push them further into the limelight.
They had a tour planned for Spring 2005 as well as the release of an upcoming full-length album, however it is difficult to find information regarding the success of these two events; and indeed there are no online sources that indicate clearly whether they are still active or have since disbanded.
Their band name derives from the Latin 'John' - that is, one who solitics the services of prostitutes - and 'On' - short for 'on-the-one,' which refers to the use of rhythms that rely heavily on the first beat of each bar (from mp3.com).
4. Johnson is also a band from The Netherlands.

Johnson Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Said that you didn't want them those old 45’s
Since you decided we’re over
I've been stone sober
Doing nothing but time
But that first sting of the needle
Brings on the feelings been keeping inside
Gonna get lost in the vinyl let the music rewind me
If I didn’t know any better
I’d swear that you left em
Cause you knew what i’d do
I’d turn em up loud
Let em spin me around
And start thinking about you
That first sting of the needle
Brings on the feelings been keeping inside
Gonna get lost in the vinyl let the music rewind me
Baby, baby tonight will be a record high
But that first sting of the needle
Brings on the feelings been keeping inside
Gonna get lost in the vinyl let the music rewind me
Baby, baby tonight will be a record high
Way back on the corner
Said that you didnt want them, those old 45’s
The song “High” by Johnson speaks about using music as a means of coping with a breakup. Johnson describes how his ex-partner did not want his old records and how he has been sober ever since they broke up. He goes on to state that he gets lost in the music and allows himself to feel the emotions he has been bottling up. The phrase “baby, baby tonight will be a record high” refers to the euphoric feeling he gets while listening to music and how it is a temporary escape from the pain of heartbreak.
The first stanza sets the scene for the rest of the song. Johnson is on a corner where he was once told his old records were not wanted, possibly by his ex-partner. He states that ever since the breakup, he has been sober and doing nothing but passing time. The second stanza describes how he feels after listening to his records. The initial sting of the needle on the record player brings out the emotions that he has tried to suppress since the breakup. He then gets lost in the music and rewinds it repeatedly, allowing himself to feel the emotions he has been keeping inside.
The chorus repeats the same lines to reinforce the feelings Johnson experiences when listening to his records. The last stanza repeats the first stanza, ending the song on a reflective note. The use of old records and the sound of vinyl add a nostalgic tone to the song, emphasizing the temporary relief that music can provide.

Story of my life!!!
20 months and 3 days sober, thank God for the love of a woman to get my head out of my ass. I did indeed squander my chance with her but her influence saved my life!
Plenty of regrets but damn it feels good to be sober. !
To all who struggle, it isn't easy but its worth it. !
