    How is it possible for someone to sound even better in a live performance? Easily one of my favorite vocalists of all time 💛🙌

      In my personal experience listening to so many concerts of many different types of music I've almost always found country artists and rock artists have the most amazing live voices and there songs sound so much more amazing live!!

      In addition to her voice, i think the 2 guys do an AMAZING job at background vocals ( evenbetter than her own background vocals in her official releases imo)

    Burning House allowed me to recognize and feel emotions i didn't even know I was hanging on to, and finally let go, healing me. Such pure, beautiful, powerful, healing music. Thank you for your courage to open up your life and experiences through your music and into our hearts

    Burning House was the anthem of my breakup in 2015. We were together for 9 years. I had no marriage, no baby, no property, nothing to show for it. He just up and left. Broke up with me via text. The next day I had to go to the Alzheimer's walk with my mom. I vividly remember playing this song on repeat the night before the walk, desperately crying and rapidly cycling through despair, anger, sorrow, total and utter confusion... I put this song away for a long time after that time period, and I've only recently reconnected with it and with Cam. What a song, what an artist. THANK YOU, Cam, for doing what you do. ❤

    One thing I loved was in an interview on the Today show before she performed it she said way back she was in College and she majored in Art and Music but she couldn't make up her mind which one to go into and her Professor told her to picture herself old and which one which she regret not doing, she said that did it she went with music!
    Thankful she did!

    Burning house is the song I hold in my heart for my ex husband and children's father. He has struggled with addiction since he was a child and though we cannot be together on an intimate level we have a relationship for our children. Our struggle to co-parent together has been a long and difficult journey but we are raising amazing people.

    She absolutely blows Carrie Underwood away. Cam is so much better. A true talent and I don't think she gets the recognition that she truly deserves. They put Carrie on a pedestal because it's all about the look. Well the look, didn't come easy. It took her weight loss, plastic surgery, veneers and hair extensions to get where she is. I think Cam is a natural beauty and a natural talent. Deserves so much more than Carrie!
