Demi Lovato’s Co-Writer Kerli Reveals Demi Cried While She Was Recording Her New Single ‘Skyscraper’!
Demi Lovato is so emotionally-connected to her music, you could ‘hear her cry’ while recording her much-anticipated new single! How touching!
Demi Lovato isn’t one to shy away from her emotions. On her road to recovery Demi has been nothing short of amazing — allowing fans to follow her in her healing process as she overcomes her battles with both an eating disorder and depression. She’s healthier than ever now and has recorded touching new music to share with her fans. In fact, her new single “Skyscraper” brought her to tears while she worked on it!
Demi’s co-writer for the song, Kerli, says via her Formspring account, “I am so excited [for Skyscraper] as well. No one has been able to hear it cause they’re keeping it behind locked doors but the couple people who have heard it say she absolutely killed it and [you] could hear her cry while she was recording it.”
“My first single is really special to me— to me it symbolizes my journey from the person I was to the happy healthy person I am today, and the fact that people are able to rise above anything, despite the odds,” Demi has said of “Skyscraper”. She’s called her time working on her album “therapeutic” and says she hopes to inspire young girls with her music.
It’s clear her new song means a lot to her, so it’s no surprise Demi got so emotional while recording it.
Does this make you even MORE excited to hear Demi’s song?

Demi Lovato :: The "Unbroken" Era

After revealing the cover artwork for her new single Skyscraper a couple days ago, Demi Lovato‘s song has been reviewed by Free Wired, who only had nice things to say about the single! The song is set to be released on July 19th on iTunes. Here’s what they had to say!
Co-written by Estonian “bubblegoth” singer, Kerli, and producer, Toby Gad (Selena Gomez “A Year Without Rain”, Fergie “Big Girls Don’t Cry”), “Skyscraper” seems like it was tailor made for Demi. With heartbreaking, yet optimistic lyrics placed over minimal yet emotionally effective production, the song seemed like the perfect opportunity for Lovato to emote, and emote, she certainly does.
“Skies are crying, I am watching,” she whispers in the first verse. “Catching teardrops in my hands.” Strangely befitting, she sounds vulnerable, almost broken, over a bare, piano-only backdrop. As the second verse resounds (“As the smoke clears, I awaken,”) she’s already regained most of her confidence and composure as the beat picks up, yet there’s still a hint of fragility in her voice, which diminishes as the song goes on. Until we reach the finale, that is; the final chorus.
The chorus in “Skyscraper” is arguably the best thing about the song. The creme de la creme, if you will. Heartbreaking yet optimistic, catchy yet powerful in substance, it stays with you for all the right reasons. “You can take everything I have, you can break everything I am, like I’m made of glass, like I’m made of paper,” she dares us. “Go on and try to bring me down, I will be rising from the ground,” she then proclaims. “Like a skyscraper, like a skyscraper.” The final rendition, however, is all the more mesmerizing. Openly weeping by the end of the song, it gives Lovato the edge to transform from Disney princess into fully-fledged, true musician.
“Skyscraper” is a triumph for Demi Lovato in every sense; a triumphant return to the music industry, a triumphant return to prominence, and, above all, a triumphant emergence from the ashes.

I mean i love E! channel, and they have BIG amount of viewrs for KUWK, Kendra, Holly...., but it seems like all songs that premiered there became flops!
Miley - Can't Be Tamed
Joe - See No More...
I hope i'm wrong, because i SOOOO want to see Demi exploding on charts with this song! She deserves it!

Such a phenomenally beautiful song. this is purely driven with honest and humble emotion. i can connect with it on so many levels. I dont care if this becomes a success or not,this is pure magic.
I dont think i ever loved a song so much initially.
was a little teary at the end of the song.
