Jamie M. Bryant sat down to react to a new video. She is currently celebrating 32 days of being alcohol-free, which makes this music very personal to her. Jamie remembers when a young girl with an old soul shocked everyone on America’s Got Talent. Now that girl is back with a deep song about the pain of addiction called Die and Stay Pretty.
Jamie shared that the music isn’t like the happy songs you hear on the radio. She shared how Courtney wrote this because someone she loved chose alcohol and drugs over her, and it broke her heart. Jamie was well aware of that situation as an addict, so she says the song stays very personal to her.
Jamie walked us through the music video as well, where she shared that Courtney uses a dancer named Polly Towers to show the scary side of losing yourself to a habit. The lyrics talk about how a person would rather stay in the dark than live a healthy life with the people who love them.

The heavy feelings in this song show how much Courtney has grown since her big Golden Buzzer moment. She is no longer just a kid on a stage but a real artist fighting for her fans.
