Well. You may be right. And if the minds and hearts of our youth today go no deeper in feeling and thought than your beloved "Go Time", a jingle composed and sung for a clothing ad ....., we're in as deep trouble as you've predicted many times for these coming years. But I've seen and experienced evidence to the contrary many times. If that's LaLa Land (which will soon win many Oscars), I much prefer to live there than the dark hell hole you envision and maybe wish for Society. This society of youths not need songs of deepness or sadness , in fact they need up lifting , YES like GO TIME , the Beatles went deep enough and how did they do ?? , this society is drug invested beyond belief with tons of addicted young people overdosing and killing them selves , READ the numbers and see the HOLE , FACTS ARE FACTS not ENVISION I agree. But one of the wonderful things about many songs is how profound their message can be. The longer I've lived and the more I've experienced; struggled with or enjoyed its blessings, the more I've realized how in-tune song writers and singers can be with life and its realities. Often much more so than philosophers and psychologists and religious leaders. There's a beautiful song I've only recently rediscovered from the 50s by a very gifted artist named Earl Grant. When I was growing up with Rock n Roll at its very beginning (yes I'm that old), this was one of the songs I heard and didn't like. It wasn't Little Richard or The Coasters. But hearing it and Earl Grant's rendition of it today .... wow. It begins ... "At the end of a rainbow, you'll find a pot of gold. At the end of a story, you'll find it's all been told." That last line ..... so simply and profoundly true. The troubles of youth are inevitable. For every generation ..... the story is retold and relived near always the same way. When I was growing up in the thought-to-be idyllic 50s .... gangs, juvenile delinquency and unwed pregnancies were huge and confounding issues for society. In my Catholic school, both elementary and high school it was booze and smoking, fist fighting and unwed pregnancies. It was a tough place to go to school despite its being run by nuns and a priest .... a tough as nails retired Marine Corp chaplain. Here's that profoundly beautiful song by the incomparable Earl Grant. A Jackie song if I've ever heard one.

I enjoy him also but the youth of today do not want to listen to this as a whole , they have been brainwash over time starting with Rap music , watch the awards shows of trash today , today is not our days , hearts have harden by adult producers

from news thread --- --- Jackie Evancho To Release New Album, Two Hearts, On March 31Feb 07 By MARowe on 7 February, 2017 at 6:08 AM Posted In: New Music, Release Pieces, TAPSheet, US Since Jackie Evancho’s emergence on America’s Got Talent, she has gone on to solidify her place in the world of music. With the release of six albums, several of them Christmas issues, Miss Evancho has earned her spot among the upper echelon of singers. And while she is currently only 16 years of age, she has released an enviable collection of songs with her stamp. Recently, she has concluded her record affiliation with Sony Records, and was courted by other major labels. After the dust had cleared, Sony Records retained the rights to release future Jackie Evancho titles. Her next album is being called Two Hearts, and is expected to release on March 31. In addition to the upcoming new album, Jackie Evancho will release an EP of original Pop songs to attach to the new album. As of now, we have no artwork, although that has officially been requested. Nor do we have a track list (requested as well). But as soon as those things materialize, I will append them to this article. Mark your calendars. www.musictap.net/2017/02/07/jackie-evancho-to-release-new-album-two-hearts-on-march-31/

I like Mr Grant also and i grew up in Catholic schools in the city and saw no booze or drugs at all , we did have fights and bullies and few cig smokers but no addicts as now , it has never ever been this bad in the whole country so i disagree every generation , no way there was not even bad words of TV , this society is lost

But, as the song "May It Be" declares, Believe and you will find your way...a promise lives within you now.

It's 2.5 years since her last album and we've had rather slim pickings since then, recordingswise. I'm certainly ready for a bigger serve. (The Beatles recorded 14 studio albums in 8 years. Nobody complained.)

I believe this is a nice B+ album ( i don't go OTT ) and will sell ok , it is a Jackie type sound so if one likes her sound then they will like it , no telling what the events of Juliet and NA events will have on sales , may be a + here or a - there which may just balance out . this is not a break out some people are looking for yet but it is safe and sound .
