I’m an enormous fan of Sara Bareilles. From the primary time I heard “Love Music,” I used to be hooked on her pop melodies, intelligent lyrics and delightful voice. “Many the Miles” obtained me via some disappointments, “Gravity” is perhaps essentially the most stunning tune ever — I may go on.
Her new tune, “Courageous”, isn’t precisely sensible. She nonetheless exhibits off her insane vocals, however I can’t say it hits my emotional buttons the best way “Gravity” or “Winter Music” does. A minimum of, that’s the best way I felt till I noticed the music video, directed by Rashida Jones.
The music video has a bunch of individuals being “Courageous” by dancing alone in public. However the actually superior, inspring factor about this video for me is that the individuals featured are of all totally different ages, races and sizes. Nobody says “Hey, fats child, you’ll be able to’t dance.” Not one of the dancers are essentially Hollywood stunning.
However it’s stunning to see these individuals — the kind of individuals you’re probably to come across strolling via a mall or down the road — represented in media, after they’re normally those probably to be silenced.
Say what you wanna say
And let the phrases fall out
Truthfully, I wanna see you be courageous
