Making the Mashup
What a dream to sing a duet with BROOKE WHITE! We both came from the same town in Mesa, Arizona, but I didn't know her until I saw her Golden Ticket performance on American Idol, Season 7. Just like the rest of the world, I became a big fan of her stunning vocals and warm spirit as I cheered her on from my living room couch.
When I first reached out to Brooke about singing together, it seemed nearly impossible to coordinate our schedules. She's lives in Los Angeles now and I'm a state away in Arizona. We each have our own families and busy lives, and it looked like a collaboration together might be too hard to swing. But just before giving up all hope, I pitched this mashup idea to her, and, short of begging, asked if there was any way we could make it work. When she heard the idea to use Alan Jackson's "Remember When," as part of a mashup, it was a game-changer. Not only is Alan Jackson one of her all-time favorite artists, "Remember When" was actually the song she and her husband Dave danced to at their wedding! I told her it was a sign, and that we had to find a way to make it work!
And I'm so glad we did! She was perfect!
The happy couple in this video is Stanley and Dona Hunt who were married in 1950! The pictures seen in the video are actual photographs of them from earlier years. Their love and mutual respect for each other is inspiring and we can't thank them enough for sharing a glimpse of their lives (and their dancing skills) with us.
