American Idol album Kimberly Caldwell has released a new video for her latest single, "Desperate Girls & Stupid Boys," which is the lead single taken from her forthcoming debut studio album, "Without Regret," which has continues to be pushed back until April 19, but the release of this single should indicate that her label is ready to push Caldwell's new set of tunes. The 2nd season of American Idol contestant struck a chord with millions of the show's viewers thanks to her gutsy vocals, passionate performances, and earthy charisma."Misery loves company, so let's dance until we die," rasps out Caldwell on her new party jam, the catchy song is an empowerment anthem for people everywhere. Penned by Tommy Henriksen, BC Jean (Beyonce's "If I Were a Boy") and Zac Maloy, the song struck a chord with Caldwell immediately after she heard it. She explained, "I automatically connected with this song because life is so much brighter and easier when you stop trying so hard to fit in. It's important to surround yourself with the special people in your life who appreciate you for who you really are and always have your back."
With lyrics like, "Drive, meet me at the corner of hope and hopeless, try to follow me I know a way out," this up tempo song could truly be inspirational to many who feel as though they don't fit in. With the recent rash of reported bullying across America, "Desperate Girls & Stupid Boys" is sure to give hope to people who may feel like outsiders. This Pink-ish bit of pop candy is a dangerous cocktail as a concept, but as a song, it's a really good fit for Caldwell and will hopefully get some radio play. The 28-year-old's confectionary vocal style is summery and airy-light! The redemptive power of music.
"Putting out my debut album is the ultimate dream come true," says Texas native about her upcoming debut CD. "I've been a performer my entire life and everything I've done has led up to this moment. I'm looking forward to people finally getting to know the real me, because I'm laying it all out there for them on this album." On "Without Regret," she wields her full-throttle belt to maximum effect on a series of emotionally resonant, pop-inflected rock songs. The most important thing, Caldwell says, "is that I jumped over to the fearless side. This album is my first step in allowing people to know 'I've been where you are, I hurt like you do, but I've turned it around and made something positive moving forward and so can you.'"
