They don't sound any too hostile to me. Had to lol when they talk about the "Lady Gaga country album" :) http://www2.957thewolf.com/listen/danny-gokey-my-best-days-live This is one of these performances where Danny live is almost identical to Danny in a studio recording. Not a lot of people can do that consistently.

And there's another line in the song that refers to one or two things "I'd change if I could." It's a song that looks ahead, but doesn't fail to acknowledge things from the past, good or bad.

And to the individual who doesn’t think Danny should be happy after losing his wife, believing our best days are ahead of us is what gives us all hope.

Actually his wife was a happy, beautiful person who would want Danny to be happy, leave his tragedy behind and go on to do good things in this world- which he is! They were/are also both people of faith; who believe the soul does not end with death, so that factors in to his optimistic outlook. “If I was his deceased wife, I ‘d be haunting him for the rest of his life for because of that title.”

I think that she was the kind of person who would want Danny to find joy in his life again. She will always be his first love and what she meant to him still is a driving force in his life and probably always will be.

He recently got his 1st #1 song with a song he cowrote called Gettin You Home (The Black Dress Song). The whole album is very good, especially a song called The Shoebox. He's got such an amazing voice and he's a pretty good writer too. I'm so happy he's doing well. His sophomore album's sold a little under 120k copies so far. His debut album was pretty good too, I'd recommend checking that out also. Back on topic: Tiny Life could be a song that's been floating around a while cowritten by Jeffrey Steele and Marv Green. I know Jeffrey Steele was performing it almost 5 years ago, I'll have to go see if I find some of his performances online. He's got a habit of sounding better on songs he cowrites than the people who eventually record them.

Pink's been going strong due to radio-friendly singles, Gaga the same. Pink's 1st week sales were 180,000 comparable to David A.'s. Long term radio exposure and an album with single potential kept Pink's album viable a year later. Didn't happen overnight. We shall see how well all the top 4 IDOLS make out, who sinks or who swims. Broad negative statements are useless. Numbers speak the loudest. I think all the IDOL fans are going to have a wake-up call as far as sales are concerned. Good luck to Danny.
