“don’t you worry i believe your story”
Simplicity often reveals the utmost beauty. That’s exactly what Vedder does with nothing but his ukulele and his emotion-filled voice. Be sure to listen to duets “Sleepless Nights” with Glen Hansard and “Tonight You Belong to Me” with Cat Power’s Chan Marshall. They’ll tug at your heart strings.
“The story of us looks a lot like a tragedy now”
The End.
“Baby lock the door and turn the lights down low”
Scotty before Idol. Voice still as deep as ever.
Seventeen year old Scotty McCreery has been dubbed the new American Idol. His deep, smooth, Josh Turner-esque voice, mixed with a whole lot of country charm won over the hearts of America. This kid screams wholesome. But his high school baseball days in Garner, North Carolina might be coming to an end as he is launched into country super stardom. Could we have found country’s own version of Justin Beiber, except a few octaves lower?
Check out Scotty’s Idol Audition, and his newest single “I Love You This Big”.
PS I think everyone agrees that he should date Idol runner up, sixteen year old Lauren Alaina. They would without a doubt be the most adorable country teen couple EVER. Not to mention their duets would sell like hot cakes.
“The scars of your love remind me of us”
