Haley Reinhart and Casey Abrams were two of my favorite American Idol contestants in season 10, so to say I’m excited about their duet is a gross understatement. The song and the video are everything I’d hope for, and expect, from these two. It showcases their amazing vocals and colorful personalities.
I only hope Haley and Casey will make an album together really soon. Really, really soon. Until then, know this: I’ll buy anything and everything with either one of their names attached to it. Love them and love them muchly.
What You Need to Know American Idol finalist Haley Reinhart has just debuted her new video for Baby, It’s Cold Outside, a jazzy rendition of the holiday classic featuring fellow Idol alum Casey Abrams. The video, which premiered today on Yahoo, takes a behind the scenes look at the pair in the studio recording the track, which was produced by Busbee (Kelly Clarkson, Katy Perry) at Conway Studios in Los Angeles.
On season 10 of Idol, Haley and Casey were known for their unique, standout performances and jazzy vocal style, and quickly became fan-favorites. Entertainment Weekly called their jazz performance on Idol one the best duets of all time on American Idol. I couldn’t agree more.
What You Need to Do!
“Baby, It’s Cold Outside” will be available digitally November 21st, and will appear on Haley’s debut album due early next year. Get the latest news from Haley on her website, HaleyReinhart.com. CAN’T WAIT!
I could listen to their version for hours on end. In fact, I believe I will….
I loved Kellie Pickler since her audition round on American Idol. There was just something about her that made me smile – and still does. Love her voice, her personality, her style… all of it. I’ve been anxiously awaiting new stuff from her and, boy, she didn’t disappoint. Tough may be my favorite Kellie Pickler song yet. Her music and her vocals always have so much strength and heart.
Kellie’s long-awaited third studio album is titled’100 Proof.’ The talented and beautiful singer/songwriter recently revealed (live on the Grand Ole Opry stage -now that’s doing it with style!) that the release date is January 24. According to Kellie, this album shows her fans a more “mature” side of her.
Here’s Adele’s Someone Like You, and yes… as a matter of fact, I did just post an Adle music video. What can I say, I could listen to this remarkable voice for hours on end.
Beautiful! Faith Hill and Tony Bennett perform “The Way You Look Tonight” on CMT’s Big New Music Weekend. This song is now my new obsession – my cat already knows the words by heart. She’s not complaining, though. Huge Faith Hill fan.
I’d love, love, love to see Faith Hill put out an album filled with this type of music. Her vocals are made for it. Then again, her vocals are made for absolutely anything they’re in the mood to try. If you don’t believe me, ask my cat.
Of all the countless The Beatles posters and art prints, this one’s probably my favorite. The song below, Help, also happens to be a favorite Beatles song. If anyone isn’t a fan of The Beatles, they just aren’t paying attention.

One of my favorite bands of all-time is The Rolling Stones. The music, the showmanship, the lyrics, the timeless songs – there’s nothing about this band I don’t love madly. Fellow fanatics, enjoy the Rolling Stones posters and videos. If you aren’t a fanatic, pay closer attention. You’ll get there.
Here’s Chris Rene’s amazing and memorable X-Factor 2011 audition. This one still stops me in my tracks and blows me away. Best of luck, Chris Rene – you have millions of new people in your corner pulling for you now.
At this moment, if I had to listen to one song every day for the rest of my life, it’d be Skyscraper by Demi Lovato… and I’d pray for two lifetimes. Demi’s powerful vocals and emotion make this a very, very special song and video.
Keep it coming, Demi. This music blog may just be your biggest fan.
