He started off by singing “Too Good At Goodbyes”, which moved the crowd. But what really touched people’s hearts was his song “Pray”. The song is about someone who doesn’t have a spiritual belief but is so lost, so alone they turn to faith in believing. He told Billboard that his inspiration for the song came from his time in Iraq with a charity called War Child. In all honesty the song is extremely moving. The emotions that these two songs alone evoke are just a sneak peek at what the album is going to bring. Keep your eyes on the calendar for November 3rd.
