CURRENT SINGLE: “Lady”
Coming from a sports background, Brett Young often finds parallels in sports and music, whether it’s discipline, dedication, or even what it takes to win and be the best in either field. Whether it’s winning awards or achieving #1 songs or selling out his tours, using the sports analogy, Brett says, “I don’t think that it’s always the most talented athlete that wins.”
Having been a Major League-bound pitcher in college baseball before he blew out his arm, Brett knows the pressure that comes with standing on the mound or standing on the stage, and he says, “It’s really easy in something like professional sports or music or entertainment, that one of those very lofty goals, if you decide to go down that route, it’s very easy to get made to feel insecure all the time. But, I think the people that win are the people that continue to believe in themselves.”
Whether he looks at NBA legend Michael Jordan or Garth Brooks or Major League Baseball Hall of Famer Derek Jeter, Brett says, “These are people that stepped up to the plate or walked onto the court and expected to win. And I think that that’s the one common thing that I’ve seen in all champions.”
So far, Brett’s confidence and belief in himself have earned him six consecutive #1 songs (every song he’s released has been a #1 hit), with his current song, “Lady,” sitting in the top 20 and continuing to climb toward the top of the charts, to potentially become his seventh consecutive #1 song of his career.
Brett Young – commonality among champions :31
“I don’t think that it’s always the most talented athlete that wins. It’s really easy in something like professional sports or music or entertainment, that one of those very lofty goals, if you decide to go down that route, it’s very easy to get made to feel insecure all the time. But, I think the people that win are the people that continue to believe in themselves. And so I think in champions, you’re gonna see a commonality that Michael Jordan, LeBron James, Derek Jeter – these are people that stepped up to the plate or walked onto the court and expected to win. And I think that that’s the one common thing that I’ve seen in all champions.”
