about

I am a great fan of Courtney Hadwin. Her transformation between her first shy but rocking session on America's Got Talent (at the age of 13) and her second and third appearance on that show was quite amazing.

She doesn't need to try to be the next Tina Turner, her voice, dress, dance moves are all unique and she will hopefully stay they way she is and true to herself - Courtney Hadwin.

I wrote this song from the point of view of a young teenage girl, who many people just do not understand, and who gets told she is too young and should wait - BUT when she goes out on stage she just turns into a whole new person and rocks the town!! Looking forward to her first album!

I know the voice is nothing like a female rock singer should sound but after hours of tweaking this is the best I could do. Would just love to hear Courtney Hadwin sing this!!

lyrics

Well they all said I’m too young
I guess they thought that I’m too shy.
It’s only when I get out here
That I start to fly.

And they all said I must wait
I guess they thought I’m not ready.
And yeah at first I tremble
But once out here I’m STEADY!!

I was born to make music
I just live to sing my song.
I want to share my feelings
Why don’t you clap along?
Hey you – and you – and you - and you
Yeah!! Why don’t you clap ALONG?

Just hear me then you’ll know
That I’m my own special show.
I move my feet, I feel so good
This is all I ever wanted to do!

I’m quite calm till I see you
It’s my fans that turn me on.
I move my feet and feel good
This is all I want to do!
Hey you – and you – and you - and you
This is all I want to do!!

Just hear me then you’ll know
That I’m my own special show.
I move my feet, I feel so good
This is all I ever wanted to do!

It’s not easy you see
‘Cos there’s another me.
Struggling to get out
To rock and roll and shout!

So glad you are all here
Just helping me along.
You’re my inspiration
Yes you’re the words of my song.

Hey you – and you – and you
Why don’t you clap ALONG?
I’m okay!!
You’re okay!!
We’re okay!! We’re gonna party
I said party party to-night!
It’s my show.
But I know.
I need you
We belong together!
