Music superstar Carrie Underwood turned in an electrifying live cover performance of the beloved classic “Don’t Stop Believin’.”
Every year, musicians release hundreds, possibly thousands of songs. Because of technological advances, there are now more ways to listen to music than ever. Apple Music, Spotify, Pandora and Amazon Music allow listeners to hear whatever they want whenever they want.
But even with all these extra outlets for musicians to get their work heard, many songs will still go unheard by most people. However, of those select few songs that are listened to by the majority of the public, some become classics, loved by and listened to by many individuals.
You know precisely the kind of songs that I’m talking about. These are tunes that, whenever played, everyone within earshot knows those words and sings along joyously. Without a doubt, Journey’s “Don’t Stop Believin’” fits that particular category. If that song doesn’t qualify as a classic, then no song does.
In a clip posted on YouTube, former American Idol winner Carrie Underwood covered this beloved hit from Journey during a stop in Hawaii. Within the first few notes of the song, everyone at the concert immediately knows what song is coming. There is a collective cheer from the crowd when the music starts playing.
As Carrie beautifully performs the lyrics, she gets a lot of help. Many people in the crowd can be heard lending their voices. It’s not like she needed the assistance, but how can you not sing that song whenever it’s performed or played? At the very least, it’s nearly impossible to abstain from singing that chorus.
“Don’t stop believin’
Hold on to the feelin’
Streetlights, people”
It was a fantastic performance of an excellent, beloved song from one of the most talented people in music today.
Colossians 3:16 “Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord.”
