Maren Morris: Writing ‘My Church’ Was A ‘Defining Factor In My Life’ | TODAY

[@GraduatingGirlhood]

Maren is so humble and deserves all the success. I LOVE every song she has released. Her journey clearly shows this was meant to be for her!

[@daniellerose9323]

I'm so happy she decided to start performing again. I love her sound and her songs. Her voice is awesome.

[@renakahler1431]

she released it herself without a record label?? wow! I'm not a huge fan but I do love her songs and that's just amazing!

[@garythompson9811]

This Is why I quit watching all these the Voice and American Idol shows. They turn down some of the best artist and musicians. I love the ones that make it on there own.

[@kingnaimhudson4322]

This is for any and everyone who's pursuing and chasing a dream. To me it goes to show that these shows have no idea what true talent really is and that people who want to make it in the industry DO NOT NEED THE LIKES OF THOSE TYPE OF SHOWS JUST TO MAKE. IT. You may hear a thousand no's but that yes is waiting, and that yes is in your will to succeed so never give up and keep pushing and believing because that YES is waiting. When no one else believes in you,you must believe in yourself.

[@ellamae9232]

Does anyone ever notice that shows like The Voice turn down good ones like Maren

[@torieofficial3585]

Ella Mae the most annoying thing ever

[@rolandomontenegro4130]

It’s like they have one type of voice in mind and anything just a little different they just pass it up. She has such a unique voice. She can be Kelly or Carrie big

[@Vivalascurves]

Aww MAREN ❤️💕 I love her album!

[@carolbenson6524]

She's climbing up the ladder!! Great song.

[@cisilver5982]

I love her story, so many NOs and she kept going and believing in herself.

[@sharonhaynes5113]

When I first heard My Church, it set my soul on fire. I listened to that song countless times in a row. Maren is enormously talented and she became my music idol instantly once I heard the lyrics and melody to My Church and 80's Mercedes.

[@kenhutley971]

The right Song is... Pure Magic. This song is Pure Magic!

[@The0103050]

I just love my church

[@arletteallen9814]

Love her 2 songs she has a great voice.. I'm glad you didn't give up. .

[@joycassidy3687]

my new favorite singer!! love all her music

[@railtrail1353]

My church is definitely amazing maren morris did an awesome job making My Church.

[@OMGjeshka]

love her!

[@TheJessicaMaree]

To be honest it makes sense to me that she wasn’t picked for the voice etc. a lot of those contestants have big voices but not much else. A lot of them don’t write much, if any, of their own music, and to be honest I think the reason a lot of them fade into obscurity is because they’re not unique and they’re easily forgotten when the next same-same reality star comes along. Maren’s got a really unique voice, it’s absolutely beautiful but it’s not what sells on a reality show. It’s a bit gritty and a bit soulful and not like anything else. She writes all of her own music. She wasn’t made for that reality show machine and I’m glad they turned her down because had they not we probably wouldn’t have the Maren we know now.

[@imjustachu]

Amazing! I just bought her vinyl.

[@carolbenson6524]

My new favorite recording artist! You are great!!!

[@kierstenkelly7342]

I am so happy for her and now that I just saw that she got married

[@tonescot]

She is so Awesome.

[@darlingsarah5243]

Talk about a #Dream come true 🌹 Thank the Heavens she didn't stop tryin' hah... She actually DOES have a good voice !

[@ainenighriofa4788]

Gotta say love Spotify.

[@usascottwright]

Good for you, hope you have a continuing great life.

[@JeanetteCoron]

Love this girl! So talented!

[@ThatOneScienceGuy]

I knew Maren back in TX when she was 19-20. I will say that the. It wasn’t so apparent she would blow up like this. My read of her was that music was a hobby and that she didn’t really believe (or want) she was good enough to blow up. I certainly didn’t see this coming. But she’s grown up a lot and I think that’s what made the difference. Good for her.

[@joannekatende]

Congrats!!

[@ajm6464]

Wow Marten, awesome.

[@clowexx]

Anyone on here ever watch "Mob Wives" on VH1?! That show was my guilty pleasure lol and Maren and Karen Gravano look so much alike.

[@jakeianmartinez9902]

She sang the middle which is amazing

[@twostepz4982]

Shes coming to my town in Auburn, WA in Aug 2nd!!!!! Im so excited to see her sing!

[@LightmasterChampion]

God bless, sweetheart.

[@mattsheezy5469]

She has such a uniquely pretty face. She's not another lame bleached blonde phony (Dibs!). She's so beautiful, & her album is great. She deserves all the success that comes her way. If I could pick one famous girl to be my girlfriend it would be her. Such a genuine, sweetheart.

[@margopendergrass9624]

I like her songs🤗

[@mikevanhouten5499]

It does who wrote the song, She sure can sing. I love her voice, too.

[@Papa0338]

Wows

[@jayvalentine2046]

Awesome

[@jessicayoung7132]

It seems the ones minus Clarkson that seem to be turned down on the Idol shows and end up making it big in the end.

[@DernLud]

I hope the executive lost their job for passing on her! Love her and her incredible music!❤️❤️

[@jakegarza4131]

DernLud right

[@leebrowning7956]

DernLud 49

[@kingnaimhudson4322]

I can almost guarantee that the ones that passed over her have their face in the palm of their hands with regret.

[@nathandunlap9627]

I respect the woman

[@katie2606]

god dammit i love her so much it actually it hurts

[@katie2606]

haha i didn't sob watching this or anything lolol

[@jakegarza4131]

Katie Mullen wow it hurts

[@libertyann439]

I'm not religious but I love this song.

[@nopo8011]

liberty Ann the song is about music being the religion

[@teiralte321]

Wow...

[@rebeccadimhoinuamzou6442]

💓💓💓

[@jenniwilliams3295]

Fpur years later Ryan isnt her bf he is her husband and they have a sweet baby. But I bet Elton is even more proud now. She is not only still extremely successful . She has used her platform to speak out about many injustices. Despite going against the country girl shush and listen crap she continues to win.

[@cvblaylock]

Grew up wanting to be a country singer but really she sings pop music. Country music is dead. I will say that a lot of song writers are coming out from the dark and putting out better tunes than the fake country acts that have been around.

[@diegopisfil614]

Elvis Presley+Khloe Kardashian=Maren Morris

[@corir1045]

What?

[@nathandunlap6957]

she reminds me of a cat like Morgan that ways been my hunch

[@nathandunlap6957]

good morning Miss 🍯

[@rascal0782]

I could sit on an ant hill and watch/listen to Maren.

[@nathandunlap9627]

he can be a nice guy

[@Thelongmanable]

[@chongnemhuichaithuaimol7329]

Is my church a gospel song

[@lyn-dellwood6577]

🫶🏽🙏🏼🦋🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

[@eileen4991]

Maren has a great stylist ... maybe Carrie can borrow her/him for her next gig.

[@nathandunlap9627]

why the disguise on the outer appearance? the inner a hidden treasure

[@tillybumbilly]

That's not how you pronounce the name!

[@ennylekalb]

Wait! Hold the phone! The best country album of 2016 was NO DOUBT A Sailors Guide To Earth. Rolling stone got it allllll wrong. I’m disgusted with music row and the crap they produce!

[@johnuram3238]

I dont cuse at. Church

[@brandon_21ea]

This video did not age well

[@sassulusmagnus]

What does the Holy Spirit tell her about America's treatment of illegal immigrants? "I was a stranger, and you did not welcome Me." (Matt 25:43)

[@jennifercheck7430]

What does this have to do with anything.

[@Cursedfirstborn]

Are you on crack?
