The way to become a better person is to not try to become someone else. Just become a better you than you used to be – on your mission to become a category of one.
Singing competitions reveal this with beautiful accuracy. Competitions like The Voice, American Idol, and the X-Factor are not looking for someone to sing a cover-song like the original artist. The judges, the record labels, and the audience (us), really want only one thing – a stunning, unique version of the cover that blows our mind.
A song that we would buy a second copy of because it’s so different (and remarkable) from the original.
Additionally, we trust that a singer who can do this is also a singer who will do it with their own songs.
Art.
Art that inspires because it’s different.
