There's something you should know about me... there are three things I'm passionate about (well lots more, but for this post...lets say just three things).
- I'm super loyal to my TV shows.
- I LOVE music, new music, old music, mashups... I love it all.
- I love American Idol (see #1).
I've ben watching American Idol since 8th grade when it started. Yes, I just dated myself, I'm 27 and proud. I bought Kelly Clarkson's first CD, I even voted for her. Well, last night Adam and I were catching up on American Idol on the DVR. I should say I was catching up while Adam read the WSJ. But Kelly Clarkson was the mentor. She was bomb, the contestants were fine and JLO looked gorg. But while watching American Idol I started looking for Kelly Clarkson songs (she has a new album out... I'll give you my thoughts on that later). But I found a song by Kelly Clarkson & John Legend. If you're new to this blog, you should know that I LOVE John Legend (see #2).
So, if you skipped all that above because you don't like American Idol, poo on you, but here's what you've been waiting for. "Run Run Run" by Kelly Clarkson and John Legend. Enjoy! Happy Wednesday!
It's not often that you leave a concert completely inspired. Maybe I look deeper into the whole concert experience than the 12,000 screaming pre-pubescent girls, but the Taylor Swift concert last night legitimately inspired me. She has the most positive view on ife and it's apparent through her music. I know what you're saying....Being all of 19 years old she's been through a lot right? Even though she's young, all of her songs are about relationships, heart breaks, life, experiences and things that move her. She's not afraid to cry about things, but at the end of the day she's happy and smiley and she reminded me that things change. While life experiences obviously effect your outlook on life, at the end of the day it shouldn't stop you from doing it all over. Yes, erring on the side of caution is important in some situations, but it should never limit us. It doesn't matter what I've been through because things will change.But I believe in whatever you do And I'll do anything to see it through. Because these things will change. Can you feel it now? These walls that they put up to hold us back will fall down.
It's a revolution - The time will come for us to finally win.

I think some people really deserve where they are. After last night and the incredible show she put on, I believe that Taylor deserves it. Another person, Kris Allen. 
I think this picture says it all. While some think Adam should have been the American Idol, I could not be more thrilled that it was Kris. He comes from a tiny town in Arkansas, and fought through the ranks and ended up on top. He didn't compromise himself and he won and he deserves it. The two of them acknowledge where they've come from and who they are. They don't let the fact that they're famous get in the way of that. Change is inevitable and it's real yet in all circumstances it's important to understand that just because it's there doesn't mean it has to change you. Be yourself. Stay true to that -no matter what, it's hard, but it's worth it.
