Demi Lovato’s ‘Skyscraper’ Video Premieres 

Clip keeps it simple, which, given the song’s power, is all it needs to do. 

In recent days, Demi Lovato’s stirring NEW SINGLE “SKYSCRAPER” has seemingly taken the world by storm (or at least the Internet). And, in what can only be described as “an incredibly refreshing change of pace,” the reason for its sudden surge in popularity has nothing to do with irony, our nascent sense of superiority or kittens (see: every popular YouTube clip in recent history, Rebecca Black’s “Friday”) and everything to do with the simple fact that she sings the hell out of it. 

But, in saying that, I’m probably downplaying several other reasons for the song’s ability to cut through the din. Like, for example, EVERYTHING THAT’S HAPPENED IN LOVATO’S LIFE leading up to this point or how, because of that, she connects with the song in ways that most didn’t think possible. She reveals new depths with each note, and when she hits that last chorus, and her voice is pushed to the point of breaking, well, if you don’t get goose bumps, then there’s a pretty good chance you’re not alive.  • Read full story »
