Go The Distance - Michael Bolton | Disney's Hercules (Live Cover by Brittany J Smith)

✨Go the Distance - Michael Bolton | Disney's Hercules (Live Cover by Brittany J Smith)✨
-----------------------------------------------------
It took me a little while to get back into the creative headspace after this holiday season. For some reason, this one was the hardest since my dad passed... Grief had me in a powerful chokehold & all I could do was try my best to keep breathing until it's grip loosened again.
After a lot of thought & consideration, I just knew that this song was the one that perfectly summed up how I was feeling going into this new year. I had forgotten about some of the amazing lyrical changes in Michael Bolton's stunning version & honestly, I sobbed like a baby when I revisited it. The lyrics (to me) sound like the longing for Heaven & the hero's welcome I'd receive there in the arms of my father that I've been so desperately dreaming of.
I hope this song fills you with encouragement in any grief or sadness you may be experiencing, & reminds you that one day we will all be reunited with those we've lost whom we love with all of our hearts. The best thing we can do in the meantime, while we travel along that "unknown road" is to live our lives the best that we can, in a way that would make our loved ones proud! There's a hero's welcome waiting for us all.

[@tomb7580]

Thank you for this. I picked this song to play at my Grandfather’s funeral when I was younger, it’s always been one of my absolute favorites and you nailed it. It’s been a rough few weeks, as I’m sure it has been for everyone, but I needed this today.

[@thesaber903]

(Not sure if you remember me from a few years ago), This song always gives me a bit of hope when I'm sitting around, filled with suicidal thoughts and feeling hopeless. I always revert to this song, but this one, along with Elsie Lovelock's cover is my favourite ones by far. Thank you Britt, hugs and love

[@James.ceta14]

I love all your videos I even have your "be nice ,be a light " shirt

[@Vamilator7165]

This isn't fair. Singing so powerfully, and writing such a beautiful piece about your father. (Sorry for your loss) I'm crying now and I hold you responsible. Have your like, hope you're happy now.

[@kelseycalzaretta936]

This was absolutely beautiful. This song (especially Michael Bolton’s version) brings tears to my eyes every time because it reminds me of my Uncle who passed away from cancer a few years ago. So no doubt I was so excited hearing you sing this and I may or may not be crying rn with how amazing you are and how well you sang this. Thank you! Been watching you since YouNow days haha! Beautiful, as always!

[@kennedyisanerd9262]
