Good For You

0 Comments

Gomez releases single Good For You. The track is a collaboration with A$AP Rocky and is featured on her album Revival.

It’s my time to embrace who I really am. I’m not going to sit down in a chair and talk about something that doesn’t mean anything to me anymore. Good For You isn’t in your face, it isn’t trying too hard — there’s so much more that I want you guys to hear, but this is going to shock everybody…in a good way.

Here

0 Comments

Cara releases her first single Here. The song is featured on her album Know-It-All.

Here is about a party I went to, two years ago, and I hated it. I felt so uncomfortable because it was just awkward, and it was just not my kind of scene at all. So I just made a rant song about it, and it turned into this huge thing that people are relating to. Which is amazing, because I never thought people would relate to that because it’s so specific to my life. But, people really resonated with it, and it’s an anti-party, but not really anti because I don’t really want to say anti-party … I’m not anti-party. But it’s the opposite perspective of what you would hear on the radio of a party song. Usually when you think of party song you think positive, let’s have fun, but it’s the complete opposite.

You Will anthem released

0 Comments

OWN adopts You Will as its network anthem. The song was composed by Warren and is sung by Hudson and Nettles in their first-ever duet. RCA Records released the single. The song will premiere during the season finale of The Haves and the Have Nots. Oprah:

I was so touched when Diane Warren came to me and said she wrote a song with OWN in mind. And then to have Jennifer Hudson and Jennifer Nettles bring the song to life with their stunning collaboration…what a gift.

Warren:

The sentiment of my song is that you should never give up on your dreams, own every breath, own every minute, go live a life that’s got no limits. You can do anything. It’s as simple as never think you won’t, and you will.

He’s like, ‘I’ve got to play you this. I have to play you this. And so he plays me this song, and it’s like magic. All it was was a beat and he was singing this melody on top and I just knew, that’s it. That night, after shooting all day, we went in the studio all night long, stayed up till four in the morning, came back, got on set and then didn’t finish.

Til It’s Gone

Chesney releases the single, Til It’s Gone, from his album, The Big Revival. Chesney:

If you think about what the song says, it’s very much a one-on-one piece of communicating. It’s about hanging on to the one who matters to you; for me, it’s talking straight to those hardcore fans who’ve been there — and saying ‘no matter where or what, I’m in this as long as you hang on.

I Need My Girl

Shelton releases his single, I Need My Girl,  from his album, Bringing Back The Sunshine. Shelton:

That’s right in my wheelhouse of what I do, along the lines of ‘She Wouldn’t Be Gone’ or ‘Over You,’ some of those type of records that are kind of a power ballad. That’s my natural go-to, and that was fun for me to sing.

Bringing Back The Sunshine

0 Comments

Shelton releases his single, Bringing Back The Sunshine from his album with the same name. Shelton:

I love the message of the song. It’s about a couple that’s gone through something, probably separated, and just decided to get back together. What’s most important is their love. There’s something magical about that title, and given what this album is all about, I thought Bringing Back the Sunshine is like I’m bringing back some country music, some of these sounds we don’t hear that much anymore in country, at least in the mainstream.

That song is just so range-y and, on top of that, I knew Ashley was going to come in and sing on it, and I knew that people were gonna hear her singing in a way they’d never heard her sing before.
