Jess Glynne may be a name (you've heard) that has been uttered through radio or television. As a former X Factor contestant, who appeared on the show when she was just 15 years old...already knew what she wanted. As a singer-songwriter Jess Glynne found a boundary that would suffocate her ability to create the songs to eventually find a way to break the mold. That not only touches the core of your soul; yet finds a way to inform the general public that other issues are going on. Whether those issues are big or small, somehow along the way each one could be affecting an individual right now.
Jess is a musician for the people. Yes, Glynne's music has a dance beat that is undeniable. Why should that stop anyone from listening to what Jess has to say? Not all of the Indie genre is simplistic with liking a girl or boy. With Don't Be So Hard On Yourself, Jess shows us the way to allow ourselves to fail or fall, but that should not be the reason to give up or deny yourself to rise from the place that has pushed you down.
The music video alone for Don't Be So Hard On Yourself shows a young male going through a troubling time that is trying to focus on making it into a Marching Band. Maybe that isn't your dream but take the song as a sign to help out yourself when times become tough or difficult. Never give up and try again, because that opportunity is waiting to greet you with open arms.
Jess Glynne becomes a voice that resembles a conscience to the soul. While we may dwell or wallow in our own mistakes, take a listen to Don't Be So Hard On Yourself and get back in gear to go for round two, three or four. No matter how many times someone may trip up, there is always a solution.
