“My Best Days Are Ahead of Me” is an uplifting piece by Danny Gokey, a Top 3 contestant on last year’s season of American Idol. He begins the video by singing alone in an empty warehouse while scenes of happy life moments and inspirational quotes flash across the screen. I particularly identify with the statements, “Life is too short to be anything but happy” and “The biggest mistake you make is being afraid to make one.” I especially appreciate how the video progresses, with Gokey walking through the city and ending up on a hill overlooking the Nashville skyline at night. I have now lived in Nashville for four years and recognize its rich musical culture and vast opportunity, specifically for people like me who are just entering the working world and trying to make our dreams come true.
