Jessie J - Who you are



This song was created by Jessica Ellen Cornish, better known by her stage name Jessie J, is an English singer and songwriter and she’s one of my favourites.  Previously, she wrote songs for some artists like Justin Timberlake, Miley Cyrus, Chris Brown, Alicia Keys and Christina Aguilera.
There are many things of this song that catch my attention. The first was the name of the song ‘Who you are’. The second thing is Jessie has an incredible powerful voice wich sounds so much better in live performances. Few singers can do that. Also she achieves to convey feelings in every song she sings. And the third thing was the video. It’s very simple, but it shows the right and necessary to understand the message or what she wants to tell us. I think the message of this song can be understand in different ways, it depends on what point of life is someone for example: maybe someone who has troubles with his family, friends or someone who doesn’t feel comfortable with himself.
The main idea of this song is accept who you are:  ‘It’s okay not to be okay, sometimes it’s hard to follow your heart, tears don’t mean you’re losing everybody’s bruising, just be true to who you are’. Because we cannot pretend to be perfect all the time, and when we do that we’re lying to ourselves. Its important doesn’t lose the essence of us.
This message has been sent because it’s important that every person learns to love and accept themselves even if they have made mistakes. And more importantly, we have to believe and to be honest with ourselves and the rest of the people.
