What until you hit 39. And so on. 29...is still a baby when i think of my own life experiences. At 29 i had a 9 yr old son and was bit by a pitbull. Left forearm was demolished. Suergery and opiates to months later becoming an addict when they stopped my prescription meds. 😢 im 41 in December and have 6 yrs clean from opiates & IV drugs! Alot changes every decade that goes by us! I love everyone enjoy your life it's short! ❤
My Mom recently passed after a year of fighting cancer. This song .... Telling myself it won't always be like this, one day I'll smile at her memories instead of tear up.
So very sorry for the loss of your dear mother. She's watching over you now & giving you strength to push forward. I lost my Dad 24 years ago & I'm still missing his presence in my life, give anything to be able to talk to him again.
I understand exactly what you're going through. My mom fought for 7 months before she passed in 2018. The last year (+) has been difficult. Things have gotten easier but I still have difficult times. Just need to remember they're always with us and love us
My condolences are with you and your family. Lost my step mum coming up four years this June, she too fought the good fight against cancer. Not a day goes by that I don’t think about her... Grief isn’t a straight line, it changes you like nothing else. I’m not going to promise you that everything will one day return to the same normal that existed before you lost her, that you will be the same as before, that’s unrealistic. I WILL promise you that you slowly develop a new normal, you slowly learn to exist in a world without them and will one day breath without a crushing weight on your chest. It starts bit by bit. You learn to say their name without crying. You realise the so called ‘5 stages of grief’ aren’t in order or checkmarks you need to tick off. The first birthdays and holidays after really suck, but sharing the grief helps. You don’t need to ‘return to normal’ because you’re figuring out YOUR new normal. I love her, I miss her, I still grieve for her but now I can laugh at the happy memories instead on focusing on Judy’s physical absence. I carry her in my soul as you will too.
I've lost both parents to malignant melanoma. The hurt of missing them never goes away completely but it lessens with time. Wishing everyone would love & appreciate their parents while they are still able to. Now all that's left is memories..
Prayers for you i lost my mom 2-20-20 she had the worst kind of dementia and she went so fast im with you only time has eased my pain but some days i break down thinking about her
My dear, you can always go back home if things get too difficult, but you can also stand strong & tall in a new place knowing that home is always there for you when you need it. I wish you the very best.
I swear this song was made for me. I’m 22, getting back from being overseas and scared about what my future holds. I don’t have a real “hometown” to go back to. Everyone close to me has either passed or moved away. Still, I find myself homesick and nostalgic to the times when things were so much more simpler. I would give anything to go back and soak it all up. To spend one more day with my grandpa before he gained his angel wings... before I was so consumed and worried about what boys thought of me. I’m not where I thought I would be. I have been all around the world and I find myself at this song, still feeling so small and stuck in my life.
Life is certainly tough, especially at your age and dealing with loss. Stay strong. You are still young and can make choices now to influence your future. Think about what your interests are and start taking steps in that direction. A Lot of people your age feel like you.
Your avatar picture reminds me of my daughter, she was also 22 years old. She was in the Canadian military and deployed overseas in Afghanistan. She came home sick, she contracted meningitis over there some how. She was put in the hospital here in her hometown, but unfortunately she went septic and passed away. She was just a beautiful girl and I miss her so much. I like to think she's an angel on my shoulder now. I don't why I'm even writing this here!? I just saw your avatar and I just felt I have to.. Sorry for the long comment. You seem like an amazing girl, take life by the horns and make it the best life ever!
as a 37 year old who is a mother of a 5 & 2 year old this song hit me in a different way. I wish I knew back in my 20’s my dad would die when I was 36, I would have cherished our moments in arizona by his pool, our late night cookie snacks in the kitchen, turning the tv off when he fell asleep in his chair with it blaring, hearing him snore, the seemingly silly moments, his warm hug. I wouldn’t have taken these moments for granted. I would have forgiven quicker. I am thankful for the lesson at 37, because now I know each moment is a gift and life is too short to get wrapped up in stupid quarrels. Make every moment your masterpiece and be grateful for all your blessings. I am. I have my sweet husband, my sweet children, my mom and my friends. I will love them as long as i have them. ❤️
@countrygirl countrymusiclover Lol!!! That's true!!! I like a lot of her songs from her first record. She is on her way to becoming a big country star as long as she stays true to herself. I am excited for her!!!
I saw her at the Opry and let me tell you; One of the best times I’ve ever had sitting in a crowd listening to artists perform. I’ve been hooked on since!
I’m a new mom to a 6 week old. I played this for my son while he was in my tummy and now it means even more to me as the nights are rough and the days are long. This song reminds me to enjoy every moment with him cause it won’t always be like this! 😭😭💙💙
I never left my hometown.. going through a divorce n we live in the same town n still raising 3 kids.. this song has helped me out in so many different ways. Thank you!!💯 It won't ALWAYS be like this... No the heart don't ache forever... ( I hope not🥺) #KNOWINGMYWORTH #FINDINGME
Jessica Jugs That’s so funny you mentioned that... That she don’t need to scream and yell to be noticed. But your profile pic is all boobs 🤘🏻😂 totally kiddin. If ya got/bought em flaunt em lol. Hell I do. Too expensive to hide em.
Lyrics I remember how I couldn't wait to get out Of my hometown now I'm looking for, every excuse to go back on the weekend I can still see the front porch balcony every time I leave, grandpa waving back at me Wish I could've told myself back then It won't always be like this It won't always be like this I know nothing lasts forever but sometimes I still forget It won't always be like this I remember hearing the door slam 22 didn't have a clue who I was, who I could trust and who were my real friends I had big wings but didn't have a sky Just a front row view of everybody flying high Waiting for my time, wish I could've told myself back then It won't always be like this It won't always be like this No the heart won't ache forever no matter how hard it gets It won't always be like this, no Looking at you, looking back at me All I wanna do is make another memory And love you like it's the end Cause it won't always be like this It won't always be like this, no It won't always be like this I know it won't always be like this I wish life would last forever so I could live it all again It won't always be like this It won't always be like this
The fact that this popped up on my recommended on Jan 1st, 2020... reminds me time goes so quick & it won't always be like this... appreciate all the good times & people, things could change instantly ..x
I was in Canada years ago on business when I first heard this angel sing. I knew she would be a success. God bless this beautiful KY girl. Truly amazing.
I miss my dad so much 💔 He would have loved her voice and we would've watched all her live videos and been so happy when she won awards for her hard work. We always watched and discussed the music industry together.
I remember how I couldn't wait to get out Of my hometown Now I'm looking for every excuse To go back on the weekend I can still see the front-porch balcony Every time I leave Grandpa waving back at me Wish I coulda told myself back then It won't always be like this It won't always be like this I know nothing lasts forever But sometimes I still forget It won't always be like this I remember hearing the door slam Twenty-two, didn't have a clue Who I was, who I could trust And who were my real friends I had big wings but didn't have a sky Just a front-row view Of everybody flying high Waiting for my time Wish I coulda told myself back then It won't always be like this It won't always be like this No, the heart won't ache forever No matter how hard it gets It won't always be like this, no Looking at you looking back at me All I wanna do is make another memory And love you like it's the end 'Cause it won't always be like this It won't always be like this No, it won't always be like this I know it won't always be like this I wish love would last forever So I could live it all again It won't always be like this It won't always be like this
Love , love , love her. Carly your songs are just so real and meaningful. I can’t get enough of your songs. I listen to them on my spotify at least twice a day. Love your voice.. Keep the music coming
first time i heard this song i balled cause in the song when u said grandpa waiting on front porch got me.. cause knowing hes gone now (he passed) and all those times he waved goodbye on his porch as i pulled away and never knowing/thinking it would end one day got me.. then the part where u mention 22 and not knowing who u/ur friends are and the place u have, is currently me. i have no idea where im goin or what i wanna do at all...and im in fact 22 so it made me not feel so alone in that, so thank you
You will never fail to make me proud. Also, everyone needs to hear this song. I used to hate my hometown and now I’m proud that I got out of that town and that I’m slowly making a life for myself
Her vocals sound the best on a slow song. Her vocals are amazing on this song🤩 Makes me emotional. Which is what u want your fans and audience to feel.
Many of us here saying she is #underated & yes she is so it's up2 all of us to help her by sharing her songs so that she gets more exposure in some way😉
My mom passed away 15 years ago of breast cancer and I swear to god if I had it to do over I would .. I was such a bad kid man I put her through hell .. I had a great childhood but I thought I knew everything and so at 15 I moved out and dropped out of high school.. I miss my mom so much 😢
Feeling sad , depressed and lonely . Things did not work out as I planned in 2021 . But I always tell myself It won't always be like this and things will get better , but I feel the better took so long now and I feel hopless. Thank you Carly for your comforting songs , I have been obbsessed with your songs lately on Spotify , I think you will be my 1st artist in 2021 wrapped.
Beautiful song! Love her voice! It’s very relatable in so many ways. Some songs are cathartic in releasing emotions you don’t want to face because it’s too painful and you don’t want to cry, but sometimes you just need to let it all out! This song does that for me sometimes! Now I’m a hot mess, lol, yet still keep listening. Every so often, I can only picture the last few hours by my dad’s bedside in the hospital. I try so hard to flood my head with memories of the good times and when he was healthy. He was so stoic as they told him that he wouldn’t be going home. He tried to be strong for us. My mom loved him for 61 years of her life! She was 13 when his family moved upstairs! She was with him until his last breath. I don’t know why I just put all this out in public, and wrote a soliloquy! So unlike me! I guess I needed to!
"It Won't Always Be Like This" I remember how I couldn't wait to get out Of my hometown Now I'm looking for every excuse To go back on the weekend I can still see the front-porch balcony Every time I leave Grandpa waving back at me Wish I coulda told myself back then It won't always be like this It won't always be like this I know nothing lasts forever But sometimes I still forget It won't always be like this I remember hearing the door slam Twenty-two, didn't have a clue Who I was, who I could trust And who were my real friends I had big wings but didn't have a sky Just a front-row view Of everybody flying high Waiting for my time Wish I coulda told myself back then It won't always be like this It won't always be like this No, the heart won't ache forever No matter how hard it gets It won't always be like this, no Looking at you looking back at me All I wanna do is make another memory And love you like it's the end 'Cause it won't always be like this It won't always be like this No, it won't always be like this I know it won't always be like this I wish love would last forever So I could live it all again It won't always be like this It won't always be like this
I don't really listen to modern country. I just randomly clicked on this tonight. And someone explain to me why I'm bawling uncontrollably at this song before the first chorus is through. Wow.
I need this reminder that things won't always be like this.. regarding the current events going on in the world right now.. and the heartbreak regarding the loss of the relationship with my mom cuz she still denies me as her daughter.
What an awesome song! Looking at pictures of the past, not realizing then that it won't always be like this. You don't see it until it's gone. Even here and now today, it won't always be like this. Treasure these times.
Left my small town, family and history behind to find something else. I look back now after I've lost my grandparents and my parents with sorrow. What I wouldn't give to have one more evening listening to grandpa whistle, to hear grandma sing, to see dad laugh at the dog or mom cooking in the kitchen. 6000 miles and an ocean between me and there, I don't regret leaving or where I am but I miss it.
This song is so beautiful and it REALLY showcases her voice so well. I love it when she sings the chorus she puts so much feeling into it and her voice is just like an angels. Well done!!
I wrote this a couple of days ago and I thought it would go well with this wonderful song: It's the little things we feel or do That make our lives whole Whenever they lead me close to you I know that I am home To others they might not seem a lot Just too little to be seen To me and you they're all we've got To know where we have been With all the laughs and tears, in time We had our ups and downs But only for a little while Those moments were just ours The way we felt and what we knew Became parts of our lives Something that's only for a few They call "the lucky ones" I couldn't always see the light Beyond what seemed so cloudy Whenever we got into a fight And I would feel so lousy But it always made us better We live, we love, we grow and still I know nothing lasts forever Though I certainly hope it will Because I've learned the better way To feel like flying without wings Is loving and be loved, so may I say? Carpe diem, build more little things!
I am so glad I left my hometown 28 years ago. Haven't looked back and haven't returned, will never go back. Nothing but toxic family there. She has an amazing voice, she is beautiful and married to Michael Ray (Look him up, he's a country star too. He is my sisters nephew by marriage). She seems genuine and has such a beautiful voice and I hope both of them much happiness and success.
What until you hit 39. And so on. 29...is still a baby when i think of my own life experiences. At 29 i had a 9 yr old son and was bit by a pitbull. Left forearm was demolished. Suergery and opiates to months later becoming an addict when they stopped my prescription meds. 😢 im 41 in December and have 6 yrs clean from opiates & IV drugs! Alot changes every decade that goes by us! I love everyone enjoy your life it's short! ❤

I needed this. I’m 22, feeling lost in a city 1500 miles from home, and just praying while doing the very best I can. God bless 💕
mush lynne keep your chin up. ☺️
Praying for you girl♥️
The hardest part is to Accept what you can't change if not it will destroy you
My dear, you can always go back home if things get too difficult, but you can also stand strong & tall in a new place knowing that home is always there for you when you need it. I wish you the very best.
MyssRyssa I hear you.

just something about her....when she sings i believe the song the lyrics; the story.
Agreed 100%%
Alice1blue yes! It resonates!
You nailed that one. I can vividly see the whole story.
This reminds me of “You’re Gonna Miss This”
It made me cry lol.
Carly Pearce has released her best song yet!!! This was beautiful!!!🥰😍👏👍

Wow! What a voice you have Carly! Your songs are always from the heart and really hit home. Thank you so much!
my mom just passed away in April before Easter this song just heart my heart I missed you mom I love you

everyone needs to hear this song.
This song gets me everytime. February 14th can't come soon enough, so excited for the album 🥰
I’m a new mom to a 6 week old. I played this for my son while he was in my tummy and now it means even more to me as the nights are rough and the days are long. This song reminds me to enjoy every moment with him cause it won’t always be like this! 😭😭💙💙
❤
❤❤yes!
I never left my hometown.. going through a divorce n we live in the same town n still raising 3 kids.. this song has helped me out in so many different ways. Thank you!!💯 It won't ALWAYS be like this... No the heart don't ache forever... ( I hope not🥺) #KNOWINGMYWORTH #FINDINGME
Finally! An actual good singer who doesn’t need to scream and yell. Beautiful voice
Jessica Jugs That’s so funny you mentioned that... That she don’t need to scream and yell to be noticed. But your profile pic is all boobs 🤘🏻😂 totally kiddin. If ya got/bought em flaunt em lol. Hell I do. Too expensive to hide em.
One of the greatest female country vocalists👍❤️
No other artists voice makes my ears Tingle like this. Your voice is the Enchanting. Thank U.
Allison Kraus
I absolutely love her voice. It sends chills down my arms. She could sing the phone book and I would listen
I was 18 n didn't have a clue but I should have listened to the wisdom of my Grandfather
Actually meaningful lyrics, great voice all of her songs are relatable, please don't ever stop making music like this.
Is anyone else sobbing because I guess this just hit home 😭
No. Just you. Tough it out.
yep
Lyrics
I remember how I couldn't wait to get out
Of my hometown now I'm looking for, every excuse to go back on the weekend
I can still see the front porch balcony every time I leave, grandpa waving back at me
Wish I could've told myself back then
It won't always be like this
It won't always be like this
I know nothing lasts forever but sometimes I still forget
It won't always be like this
I remember hearing the door slam
22 didn't have a clue who I was, who I could trust and who were my real friends
I had big wings but didn't have a sky
Just a front row view of everybody flying high
Waiting for my time, wish I could've told myself back then
It won't always be like this
It won't always be like this
No the heart won't ache forever no matter how hard it gets
It won't always be like this, no
Looking at you, looking back at me
All I wanna do is make another memory
And love you like it's the end
Cause it won't always be like this
It won't always be like this, no
It won't always be like this
I know it won't always be like this
I wish life would last forever so I could live it all again
It won't always be like this
It won't always be like this
The fact that this popped up on my recommended on Jan 1st, 2020... reminds me time goes so quick & it won't always be like this... appreciate all the good times & people, things could change instantly ..x
I was in Canada years ago on business when I first heard this angel sing. I knew she would be a success. God bless this beautiful KY girl. Truly amazing.

This girl has the voice of an angel. One of the best voices I've ever heard just makes me feel Really moves me. Just beautiful.
I remember how I couldn't wait to get out
Of my hometown
Now I'm looking for every excuse
To go back on the weekend
I can still see the front-porch balcony
Every time I leave
Grandpa waving back at me
Wish I coulda told myself back then
It won't always be like this
It won't always be like this
I know nothing lasts forever
But sometimes I still forget
It won't always be like this
I remember hearing the door slam
Twenty-two, didn't have a clue
Who I was, who I could trust
And who were my real friends
I had big wings but didn't have a sky
Just a front-row view
Of everybody flying high
Waiting for my time
Wish I coulda told myself back then
It won't always be like this
It won't always be like this
No, the heart won't ache forever
No matter how hard it gets
It won't always be like this, no
Looking at you looking back at me
All I wanna do is make another memory
And love you like it's the end
'Cause it won't always be like this
It won't always be like this
No, it won't always be like this
I know it won't always be like this
I wish love would last forever
So I could live it all again
It won't always be like this
It won't always be like this
Thank-you for the lyrics! Sometimes easier to read them this way!
Soooo glad I discovered her, her absolutely beautiful voice, and her always-touching songs. She’s flawless ..
Yes it will, and when we can't take it any more, we end it.
She's Absolutely Brilliant!! New Country Crush!!!!!
@countrygirl countrymusiclover Back Again I See! How Was Hibernation? Been Awhile!

This song changes perspectives and saves people from making mistakes. Thanks
You will never fail to make me proud. Also, everyone needs to hear this song. I used to hate my hometown and now I’m proud that I got out of that town and that I’m slowly making a life for myself
@countrygirl countrymusiclover LOL even if she doesn't I don't care :)
Gorgeous Woman with a Gorgeous Voice!!!!!! Nothing else said
Her vocals sound the best on a slow song. Her vocals are amazing on this song🤩 Makes me emotional. Which is what u want your fans and audience to feel.
She is more an angel in my life. I love her voice.
Many of us here saying she is #underated & yes she is
so it's up2 all of us to help her by sharing her songs so that she gets more exposure in some way😉
Natalie Hemby has another winner and certainly her art is in good stead in Carly's voice. This is lovely.
My mom passed away 15 years ago of breast cancer and I swear to god if I had it to do over I would .. I was such a bad kid man I put her through hell .. I had a great childhood but I thought I knew everything and so at 15 I moved out and dropped out of high school.. I miss my mom so much 😢
Jesus L♥️VES Y🌝U
Lisa..🕊
Don't be afraid..
Just believe♥️
Thanks , Gracias Carly Pearce, muy bonita canción. Greetings from Canada!
This song has helped me through a lot of hard times lately! Such a beautiful song,it really shows your heart!
Feeling sad , depressed and lonely . Things did not work out as I planned in 2021 . But I always tell myself It won't always be like this and things will get better , but I feel the better took so long now and I feel hopless.
Thank you Carly for your comforting songs , I have been obbsessed with your songs lately on Spotify , I think you will be my 1st artist in 2021 wrapped.
" No the heart wont ache forever , no matter how hard it gets ". I felt that!

It won't always be like this
No, the heart won't ache forever
No matter how hard it gets
It won't always be like this, no
Looking at you looking back at me
All I wanna do is make another memory
And love you like it's the end
'Cause it won't always be like this
It won't always be like this
No, it won't always be like this
I know it won't always be like this
I wish love would last forever
So I could live it all again
It won't always be like this
It won't always be like this
I don't really listen to modern country. I just randomly clicked on this tonight. And someone explain to me why I'm bawling uncontrollably at this song before the first chorus is through. Wow.
She is AWESOME!!!! Simply Beautiful.
Beautiful song from a beautiful lady. Love your voice Carly!
I need this reminder that things won't always be like this.. regarding the current events going on in the world right now.. and the heartbreak regarding the loss of the relationship with my mom cuz she still denies me as her daughter.
Don't give up on yourself. I am truly sorry .peace hope love
What an awesome song! Looking at pictures of the past, not realizing then that it won't always be like this. You don't see it until it's gone. Even here and now today, it won't always be like this. Treasure these times.
Just Soo beautiful 💕💯
Amazing song Carly. I love your music hits the heart just perfectly ❤❤❤
This song has helped me work through childhood trauma and is literally a soundtrack to my life. Thank you for sharing this vulnerable song. 💜
This made me cry. My grandfather pretty much raised me. He died last year. 😞
@Rachel Dickson definitely hard to lose someone you look up to. Sorry for your loss as well
Such a beautiful song. Can't wait for the full album.
Left my small town, family and history behind to find something else. I look back now after I've lost my grandparents and my parents with sorrow. What I wouldn't give to have one more evening listening to grandpa whistle, to hear grandma sing, to see dad laugh at the dog or mom cooking in the kitchen. 6000 miles and an ocean between me and there, I don't regret leaving or where I am but I miss it.
God, darn it! Release this as a full length normal video and single! Let the girl reach number ONE!
Best of everything CARLY PEIRCE........BEAUTIFUL VOICE........GO ALL THE WAY!
Love this song.. And her voice!! 🥰 Just melts my heart.. All the love and support from small town Plentywood, Montana.
I don’t even like modern country but this woman has my heart with just her voice alone. She’s a mother fucking angel.
Such a beautiful song to think i found this song by chance ❤❤❤
BEAUTIFUL woman! Beautiful voice! Love her!
I know what you are growing through Lost my mom to kidney failure Let God be your strenght and you will have strength to get through it🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
i said to myself.. It Won’t Always Be Like This
Her voice is honey. From a fellow vocalist, I could always listen to her sing.
This song has been keepin me holding on for a long time now. My go to, when i need something to hold on to.
I love the whole album. Hits home with me. Your voice is getting me through these tough times.
The lyrics to this song just speak volumes, I can only pray that it really wont always be like this.
She's awesome....her voice is unreasonable..and drop dead gorgeous 😍
Another good song for Carly Pearce. Good Girl. 😍
A beautiful song matched with a beautiful presentation! ❤
This is just a great song. Still hearing this song makes me cry..I thought I had a great life. But it won't always like this ...😢💔💜
This song is so beautiful and it REALLY showcases her voice so well. I love it when she sings the chorus she puts so much feeling into it and her voice is just like an angels. Well done!!
Such a beautiful voice and person. Brought tears to me as I reminisced to my younger years where I thought I had it hard.
❤️ I will forever listen to her music. Been a fan from day 1.
This song moves me into life after death. It connects me deeply with my mum in heaven. Thank you Carly
This is such a great song think of u and ur family it always gets easier
You and Lauren Duski are my fav country singers! The way you tell your stories... it hits home.
I wrote this a couple of days ago and I thought it would go well with this wonderful song:
It's the little things we feel or do
That make our lives whole
Whenever they lead me close to you
I know that I am home
To others they might not seem a lot
Just too little to be seen
To me and you they're all we've got
To know where we have been
With all the laughs and tears, in time
We had our ups and downs
But only for a little while
Those moments were just ours
The way we felt and what we knew
Became parts of our lives
Something that's only for a few
They call "the lucky ones"
I couldn't always see the light
Beyond what seemed so cloudy
Whenever we got into a fight
And I would feel so lousy
But it always made us better
We live, we love, we grow and still
I know nothing lasts forever
Though I certainly hope it will
Because I've learned the better way
To feel like flying without wings
Is loving and be loved, so may I say?
Carpe diem, build more little things!
@Rachel Dickson Thank you so much! You're too kind ☺️
Wishing you the best, too!
What a real country singer!
Happy I found you ❤ your amazing 🎉
My grandpa passed and I just wanted my grandpa come back home because I really missed my grandpa like crazy I just want he hug me back
Always favorite- that voice omg 😱
This song gave me chills...beautiful song
Ok, well now I’m crying.
What great country vocals and song writing! Miss mature voices and pure music like this - time to go back to our roots to replenish our souls!
Truly brilliant carly my dad died feeling down song brings it home
Beautiful voice... best female singer today, for sure. And really captures the emotion of the song, as in that voice crack at 2:41.
Countrymusik ist Musik für die Seele. Danke dafür und Grüße aus Germany.
hold on to the good memories; learn from the bad stuff, but don't let it make U cold-hearted; (yes, easier said than done sometimes)
Amazing beautiful 💞💞
Wow🥰🥰🥰🥰 I love the message. It’s a very nice song mwaaaaaa😘
I am so glad I left my hometown 28 years ago. Haven't looked back and haven't returned, will never go back. Nothing but toxic family there. She has an amazing voice, she is beautiful and married to Michael Ray (Look him up, he's a country star too. He is my sisters nephew by marriage). She seems genuine and has such a beautiful voice and I hope both of them much happiness and success.
She is the best singer I’ve ever heard
Carly .... I think you're a beautiful girl.........your beauty is a hands down sign the contract, and singing too....go girl
