I didn’t like Danny’s voice and his personality that much when he was in the idol… at some point I actually disliked him. However, this song and vocals are the best I’ve heard from season 8 contestants. Adam was my favorite in the show, but I’m disappointed with the direction he has gone with his music.
Just listened to Danny’s new single. This is exactly what I expected Danny’s first single to sound like. I love the song and think it has the potential to be a big hit on country radio. This song is right in Danny’s wheelhouse. A powerful ballad with great vocals and a beautiful message. Danny did not compromise who he is and what he is all about with this song and I respect him for that. He is staying true to himself. I also have a lot of respect for Mark Bright, Charles Kelley and Dave Harwood. Danny is working with some great people – can’t wait to hear the rest of the album.
Best song i heard from AI8 so far and i love all top 4. Makes me want to hear more of Danny. I love the way his voice was well controlled in this song yet it still very powerful, so moving, so Danny.
Beautiful, awesome vocals. A little heavy on the background music, hope they fix that before single release.
Best out of the Idol single releases so far, IMO
What a gorgeous song. This is a great choice for Danny Gokey. It uses all the things I love best about his voice, and it lets him really put his heart and soul into the performance.
Wow, cannot wait to hear the rest of Danny’s album.
WOW! What a profoundly soul searching and challenging song for the times and world we are currently living in. I am totally blown away by these incredibly ingenious lyrics.
Only someone who has a heavy burden for others and truly has looked deep into their own soul could possibly create poetry so sad and yet so beautiful as this!
Here are the raw savage truths of life and our society that we shudder to think about thrust right into our faces! Where does our faith and hope lie for the humanity of others less fortunate or those who are suffering? What are we really here for?
What are we willing to do for others and how far shall we dare to go.
Perhaps once in a decade does a song reach into my soul as deeply as this one does.
The Bible says it best. “LOVE THY NEIGHBOR AS THYSELF”.
We all are aware of the pain and loss Danny has suffered and endured in his personal life.
I have seen this kind of tragedy affect people in many ways.
But with Danny I see the sharp bitter thorns have only created a more beautiful and fragrant rose.
