Single Review | Hunter Hayes - Invisible

Hunter Hayes
Invisible - Single
Atlantic
Release date: January 26, 2014

 Country music singer, Hunter Hayes, 21, premiered a brand new single, 'Invisible', in the middle of Sunday's 56th Annual Grammy Awards. The performance, which got tremendous applauds by critics and viewers (and yeah, Paul McCartney!) got us, the non-Americans, to take notice of this young music nerd. 

 In my opinion, 'Invisible' is brutally honest. It speaks about Hayes' past where he was being misunderstood by his friends and community. This awesome power ballad carries the theme of seeking hope and acceptance. The chorus is pretty beautiful and I love it: "Trust the one who's been where you are, whishing all it was sticks and stones, those words cut deep but they don't mean you're all alone."

 Hayes released his self-titled debut album back in 2011 and it did achieved few number one hits and the album sold over one million copies in the US, so, he's kinda big over there. And thanks to that performance at the Grammys, I'm sure he'll be a worldwide sensation by the time his sophomore record hit the record stores in May. 

 Rating: 5 out of 5 stars.
