Did you know one of the strongest songs about moving on started as a joke? One of the most viral songs these days is ”Never Say Never” by Courtney! She said this song about strength began as a simple idea in a green room before a show.
The singer, Courtney Hadwin, is known for a loud and classic voice, sounding a lot like Janis Joplin. She recently released a version of “Never Say Never” live at Decoy Studios. She sits down, dressed simply, making her voice feel close and real. She puts every bit of feeling into the song, showing how serious the words are to her. The whole performance is acoustic, which means it is just her voice and the instruments.
