Win It! Javier Colon's song "Stitch By Stitch"

<s>The first person to comment on this blog post with their email address will be sent the song “Stitch by Stitch” by Javier Colon from last night’s performance on The Voice.

Song was purchased using USA iTunes and may only work being redeemed using USA iTunes accounts.</s>

Blog and Facebook songs have been claimed.  Twitter is still up for grabs at the moment!

The Voice Finale & Giveaway!

Last night was part one of The Voice finale.  In addition to the final 4 singing original songs, they also did a duet with their coaches.  The 4 coaches performed “Under Pressure” together and we also got performances by Pitbull w/ Ny-Yo and Brad Paisley who was joined by Blake Shelton.

The voting window has just ended (with the results show the next night the voting window has changed from the end of the show to 10am EST – which kind of stinks as part of the appeal to the show originally was having such a HUGE window for those who might watch later on DVR) and the winner will be announced tonight at 8pm EST.

All of the original songs were great – though I have to say that I enjoyed Javier and Beverly’s the best.  Hearing Dia’s every breath got annoying during her song and Vicci’s performance had spots that were off to me.

The duets were also pretty cool too. Dia and Blake sang Tom Petty, Christina and Beverly sang Christina’s song Beautiful, Adam and Javier did a great rendition of Michael Jackson’s Man in the Mirror and Cee Lo and Vicci did quite an interesting performance for Love is a Battlefield.  I ended up buying all 4 duets on iTunes because they were ALL awesome (and none of those purchases counted as votes lol)

It was also announced that the Top 8 would be going on tour.  There are only 6 dates, but fortunately one is in Connecticut! (Probably thanks to Javier!) Tickets are on sale now and VIP packages are available through I Love All Access which include a M&G with all 8 contestants.  I managed to get 3rd row seats despite not knowing they were on sale until Carson said so and I am very excited to see the top 8 🙂

I have been watching the twitter numbers, and if that is any indication – Dia will win. She already had a pretty big following before the show so if they all vote for her, there should be no contest.  However, Javier is slowly catching up to her numbers so I guess it really depends on how devoted everyone is.  I have voted on every email address I can remember for Javier 10x each, called 10x from my phone (I had access to more phones last night but unfortunately his line was busy!) and I purchased his single on iTunes 4 times – which brings me to the giveaway.

I have 3 “Gift” versions of Javier’s original song Stitch by Stitch to give away.  1 will be given away here on the blog, 1 on twitter and 1 on Facebook so make sure that you are following me everywhere so you don’t miss out.  All 3 will be given away at some point today.

If you are the first to reply with your email address, you will be sent the download code.   It is ok to disguise your email from spammers, for example – blog AT concertkatie DOT com.

These songs were purchased on the USA version of iTunes so I believe that you have to be living in the USA in order to redeem them.

Book Review & Giveaway: Where Will You Go From Here? by Valorie Burton

When I first requested “Where Will You Go from Here?” I was wondering that myself.  I had been out of work for nearly a year and was down and out.  However, by the time the book came I had started working again and was in a much better mind set.  But now after reading it, I know how to try and cope and overcome any other obstacles that might come my way.

The book is filled with a lot of personal stories (there is one at the end of I believe every chapter) and how that person overcame their problems and what lessons they learned along the way.

Each chapter also ends with questions for yourself.  The author notes that answering these questions may bring all the anger and the sadness back to you, but that it will end up helping you recover and move forward.

One of the important lessons of the book was that you shouldn’t ask “Why Me?”, that just puts a negative spin on things and you need to find the positive to help you overcome the obstacles and move forward with your life.  Another lesson that I tend to overlook is to not be afraid to ask for help! If you have 3-4 good friends who are willing to help you out when you are in bad times then you know you have good friends and you know that you will be ok and able to move forward.

Resilience to Get Through Any Challenge

In Where Will You go From Here? Valorie Burton helps you navigate life’s obstacles and unexpected challenges.  You’ll find all the tools you need to be resilient in the face of setbacks, now and in the future, including:

Step-by-step guidance for restructuring your life
Strategies to unearth the courage you need for any situation
In-the-heat-of-the-moment words to combat negative thinking
Practical exercises to become better, not bitter, as a result of adversity.

Valorie Burton is a certified personal and executive coach who has served hundreds of clients in many states and countries.  The founder of The CAPP Institute, she’s also the author of several books including What’s Really Holding You Back? Burton has written for numerous publications, including Essence, Woman’s Day, and O, the Oprah Magazine. She lives in Atlanta, GA.  Visit her at www.valorieburton.com
