21st Century Machine - CATIE TURNER ORIGINAL

[@maggiemorris6001]

My friend told me i reminded him of Catie Turner, so I looked her up and I have decided that's the highest compliment he could have given me.

[@analisapena3086]

Don’t lose him, sounds like a great friend. 👍🏽

[@SuperMerchus]

She is my niece also...... gorgeous....

[@genesislopez4593]

My mom told me this too :)

[@erinchen4778]

[@nickcarpenter1295]

Me

[@courtneyc626]

[@kimmyhersh6706]

Very much so . So so amazing 💕💕

[@nljleyba2618]

Me

[@jaredshepherd5253]

[@ThuggyMacho]

Someone please give her a record label please! I need to buy her album!

[@AlejandroKet]

I will buy two!

[@kakarrotcake6991]

Alejandro Ket too or like two copies?

[@Guopella]

OkayItsJ took the words right out my mouth

[@AlejandroKet]

[@DevinSumer]

[@abdenourbacha4782]

[@MissAelendil]

[@SilencedButNotForgotten]

abdenour Bacha so true

[@twentynepiltsmelaniepatdlo492]

Devin Sumer I see you everywhere

[@shizraanis8867]

You are literally everywhere on KZbin.

[@meganr2559]

A producer needs to jump on this! This is already fire and it needs to be on the radio

[@karaelise3164]

Megan R I just hope it doesn't change her if it does end up on the radio!

[@dajonwheeler1863]

Absolutely

[@LilOreoCovers]

Megan R yeah youre right

[@StormCalysta]

Well now she’s in a contract with American Idol, so it’d be about a year before she’s even allowed to properly release this.

[@nataliekhmelevsky3802]

Genius lyrics!! I love the “I’m not in love if there’s not a man sitting next to me”

[@Mkmkdh]

My fav line

[@samlemagic]

love this.

[@haeuneun_]

Honestly that hit so hard

[@weeb1354]

That’s my favorite line

[@SuperMerchus]

Yes.

[@britbrat6242]

I first listened to you during your auditions on American Idol. My eyes lit up cause this song touched my heart so much that immediately I told myself "I hope she takes it all, I hope she wins" you didn't but you're a winner in my eyes and in many others. You have personality that shines so differently and your style is everything too!! You should have won American Idol.. Don't ever change who you are. Ever!!

[@akrobeau]

Seriously! I was rooting for her. Shame she didn’t win.

[@karinhoglund3187]

PLEASE PUT THIS ON SPOTIFY PLSSSS

[@TheScouter78964]

Karin Höglund YAS PLZZ

[@trulyindiestudios]

You should legit have a record deal, hope that you do already. This is hands down best song I’ve heard in a long time. I’d buy your album sight unseen.

[@desireandfire]

I believe the top 12 are signed to American Idol so they can't sign to record deal for a certain amount of time.

[@cathyhan3204]

She just got signed to Atlantic Records! Shes so talented!

[@naas5014]

Can’t wait for it to be on Spotify or iTunes

[@julcensison2628]

Yea!!! This is great this would be a hit song

[@AceGangx]

grl u gotta capitalize on this MEGA BOP and release it on itunes/spotify bc i have no choice but to youtubetoMP3 it, but i wanna give u all my coins. ur brilliant!

[@matthewhurtado5448]

^this tho

[@SasuKev099009]

FUCKING YES SAME DOAKCLLA

[@anapaulaalm]

Yessss

[@hannahmichaela7752]

SO TRUE

[@JorgeFlores-jr3mz]

Honestly

[@rahullovesthepayne8690]

IM SO HAPPY IM HERE BEFORE SHE GETS HUGE AND FAMOUS.

[@robaerto8154]

Rahul Loves'ThePayne well in that case, you been late

[@cloudycupboard8537]

Rahul Loves'ThePayne she was on american idol if you didn't know

[@rahullovesthepayne8690]

Emily Payne I know she was on American idol and that’s how I discovered her.

[@BrookeKatherine.]

Rahul Loves'ThePayne if she’s on a giant tv show that you discovered her from then you’re in the same boat as everyone else. She’s already big, you aren’t here before she gets famous lmao

[@karlsharx6512]

I wouldn't say she's famous just yet. Adam Lambert being on American idol didn't make him famous, winning did. No one gave a shit about him before he won, and i imagine it'll be similar with this girl. I think she's absurdly talented and i'm confident she'll win but i wouldn't call her famous just yet.

[@divogalindra9821]

This song is deserved to be called as the song of this century. Very much relate us

[@jj9268]

Divo Galindra u loook hoooott😉😉😉💞

[@robaerto8154]

woah woah woah, its extremely good; but, idk bout all that

[@sophiachaudhary26]

Divo Galindra yess

[@jumaingjafa3581]

hey love your body!

[@bellsfiz]

Its u again lol

[@stevecampos1960]

Still coming back in 2024 to hear the song that caused me to fall in love with your voice, your songwriting, your musicianship, and your personality. ❤️

[@beverlystirling9430]

I'm an old lady and I'd buy Catie's music. You're just terrific!

[@bethmolander3629]

Me too, me too...

[@Rach-db9vx]

is this girl for real?? what a freaking talent . who cares what place she ends on american idol, she already won #hastagcatie

[@03cyncity]

Exactly. She's going places.

[@anthonyjohnson5690]

[@alanavillanueva1302]

When i first heard this on your audition for American idol i kept replaying it and hoping I’d hear the full thing and this is the most satisfying thing that’s ever happened. You’re so good and I love you❤️❤️❤️

[@taterghost]

Can we get this in Spotify yet!?

[@angelbaca4662]

[@cherfancherfan6682]

Lyrics: [Verse 1] People on the airwaves always preach who I should be How to dress, how to talk Baby, how to breathe Wicked artist use their limber fingers To paint pictures of what young girls are to aspire to be I’m not alive if I’m not on illegal weed I’m not in love without a man sitting next to me Someone tell me if this is all an illusion Or if I’m just a cog in the [Chorus] 21st Century machine It’s the place to be... In the 21st Century Machine Shelf light and live precariously {Verse 2] Sipping on rosè is your best solution Down it all till your stumbling with past confusion Then, wake up and do it all over again You only live once, Friday nights your only friend And you shouldn’t worry about your weight And trust me when you’re not looking they’ll all still say you look great Oh, they’ll still say you look great [Bridge] I’m in peril, they wanna give me hell They look at me with hungry eyes as I’m another Infidel But, oh, they like me That’s why they wish me well That’s why they pull me gently as I’m trapped inside their meld [Chorus] In the 21st century machine It’s the place to be In the 21st century machine Shelf light and live precariously In the 21st century machine It’s the place to be [Outro] And if you saw me right now Would you still remember me?

[@ughmarly]

"Mama didn't raise me to have excuses" OKAY CATIE 😂💖

[@acharich]

😅😂

[@annat347]

[@Sam-cs1lr]

Everyone needs a friend like Madelynne in their life ❤️

[@the_ulysse16]

The first time i heard the song in the video of american idol I was sooo shook... but then listening to it I was feeling so calm and complete, i don't really know how to say it but it's a masterpiece, you're special Catie! PS: I WAS WAITING FOR THIS VIDEO SO BAD! COMPLETELY IN LOVE WITH YOUR VOICE!

[@nickalexanderthe3rd]

When I heard your song in the auditions back then, it instantaneously gave me goosebumps. This hasn‘t changed until now.

[@peija96]

I need this in studio version. Hey, i hope you'll make it far as an artist. You have the potential to write honest song and you also have the voice. Good luck on your future endeavour, I'm subscribing you now 🙂

[@billiedoliber9470]

I have a 2 month old baby girl and I sing your song to her everytime she goes down for a nap and she falls asleep. I just wanted to say thank you for this song because it has gotten me through many sleepless days and nights.

[@novitasijabat9684]

awww thats so cute ... i wish she read your message

[@anushamadhusudanan]

THE LYCRIS AND THE EMOTION IN YOUR VOICE HIT ME HARD 😍❤️❤️❤️

[@syn2667]

This. ❤️❤️❤️

[@andres-jl1qy]

You seriously should’ve won

[@ce3540]

andres yeah but I think she’s happy for Maddie Poppe. They are really good friends, really!

[@VincentAdultman]

Most non-winners do better anyway.

[@nickcarpenter1295]

I agree

[@stevenguzman8824]

She is great but Maddie is world class.

[@dianne2cu]

Ikr I was so mad

[@manicmax7909]

Please, please, PLEASE. If for some strange otherworldly reason you do not win American Idol (which I think you will), CHASE AFTER A LABEL AND CREATE AN ALBUM! I need a Catie Turner album, and vinyl. Your an inspiration to me and other girls. My friends and I (we're all 14-15 for perspective) are all pretty quirky and have similar personalities to you and to see you doing what your doing and following your dreams is amazing.

[@noaaviyam1541]

This needs to be the first song on your first album

[@jimmymartinez365]

You’ll probably never see this, but I’m proud of you, you’re great.

[@timiempire2279]

[@nathanstark957]

This is the most genuine,creative song that I have EVER HEARD EVER it brought me to tears as soon as she sang "precariously" I was like YEEEEEEEEESSS I'M OBSESSED never stop what you are doing EVER EVER EVER EVER, sorry for the novel it's just so damn good!!

[@samq8594]

[@izam1832]

Samantha Greene I AGREE!

[@riofestarini]

Hands down, my absolute favourite Catie Turner song. She's had so many fantastic songs that have followed, but this is the one that launched her into my heart. Catie, you're a gem. Keep doing what you're doing! You bring so much joy to me and so many other. 🥰

[@BeccaLupercio]

I LOVE you and this song! It's seems like forever since I found an artist who I can truly admire and girl you're killing it. Your lyrics, your style...it's a huge breath of fresh air!! Rooting for you! 💕💕💕

[@lizavarga]

I'm obsessed I need an album from you like right now omg you are a true star!! ❤️❤️

[@aliyahjurd9794]

Here's the story: I was taking a rather dull stroll through a very large place we all like to call KZbin. I stumbled across a video that was a compilation of the performances from American Idol's Disney Night 2018. It intrigued me, I clicked, I watched. The first performance was amazing. "Once upon a Dream." I watched all the rest of the performances and they were, honestly, a bit schmerrr. But the first one was low-key so perfect. I looked in the description of the video and, just to my luck, they included the names of the first two singers (I don't know why it was just those two but okay). I put the first singer's name from "Once Upon a Dream" into the KZbin search-bar. "Catie Turner". And here I am. I clicked the first video: "21st Century Machine". My jaw... Oh, my jaw. As soon as Catie opened her mouth a played the perfect note with her vocal chords my jaw instantly dropped. "I would honestly listen to this song on repeat 25/8" I thought to myself. "This is my new jam. I would low-key buy a whole album. I hope she wins the Idol because I have no words right now apart from: oh em gee her voiceeeeeeeee." So yeah. I live in Australia. The Australian Idol isn't really a thing here anymore, let alone the American Idol, but I hope you win, because if your song was one of those songs that was overplayed on the radio, I wouldn't be mad, because your voice is angelic. **clap clap clap** **tear comes to eye** Good day.

[@kgwyneth]

[@MyGLEE1]

I’m not sure why you’re only going on American Idol now, I’m shook that you’re not already a recording artist ? Your voice is so genuine and unique. Your songwriting skills is out of this world. Even if you don’t win the American Idol, I see you selling out shows in the future! Bless your beautiful soul x

[@Iann-]

This is just too relatable, please get this on Spotify or something you’re amazing, best of luck on American idol

[@thevioletcat5680]

I really hope that you win American Idol so this can be your featured single released when you win! Love your songs, your voice, and your personality!
