Before Brett Young’s music career really took off, he believed there was nothing he wouldn’t do or couldn’t do to make things happen and build his career.  While he still has a tireless work ethic, he admits one there is one realization he’s had.  “I’ve learned that I’m not Superman,” says Brett.  “The athlete in me always thought that I was; wouldn’t have to turn down anything; wasn’t anything I couldn’t do; was never too tired, all that stuff. I absolutely get too tired, and there are absolutely are things I have to turn down.”

While Brett has had to accept that he’s not a robot who can work 24 hours a day and exist on no sleep, he’s also willing to do whatever is humanly possible to keep building his career because he says, “One thing that I’ve learned about myself though is how much this means to me. Before I moved to Nashville I had been at this for almost 12 years. And it’s one of those things, and there’s a handful of things that you’ll do in your life that feel like a pipe dream, and that’s OK because that’s why you call it a dream. You know like you don’t even think about whether or not it ever happens, it’s just, that’s your dream and that’s what you want and you stay focused on today because you know that it’s very unlikely.”

Fortunately, Brett’s dream of making it in the music business is no longer a pipe dream.  With two number one songs, and his latest, “Like I Loved You” climbing the charts, his dreams are coming true every single day.
