American Idol and the art of chasing your dream

Were you uncontrollably inspired yesterday?

American Idol and the art of chasing your dream. Was originally attracted to Idol because of Simon Cowell’s brutal honesty – it provided inspiration during some tough years at Disney and Disney Institute.

Fell away from Idol for a few years, but currently hooked again, with renewed commitment.

Why?

Unusually inspired by the artistry, and the overwhelming risk-taking that must be present to stand out in a sea of hopefuls.

Kinda like our own personal world, eh?

Good morning January 8, 2015.

Yesterday’s news of the terrorist attack killing 12 innocent people in Paris felt a different kind of sad.

A “what’s it gonna take for the world to get their $hit together against terrorism?”

Watching American Idol’s 2015 season premier last night, it’s easy to see what’s needed.

A very unique and different approach to the same old song.

An artist.
