American Idol season 14 champion, Nick Fradiani, feels like he really lucked out when he had the chance to record his debut single, “Beautiful Life.” He says, “To me, the first time I heard ‘Beautiful Life’, the first word I thought of was anthem, it felt like a big anthemic song and I think a lot of people felt that way.”
When he thinks about the message and the feeling of “Beautiful Life,” Nick says, “It’s a powerful song, the lyrics are powerful, the instrumentals are powerful, and I think that’s an important thing to have when you release your first single. I lucked out, Chris Carrabba wrote a killer song and I’m just proud to be a part of it.”
You can catch Nick and the other finalists from season 14 on the American Idol Live! 2015 Tour, which kicks off on July 7th.

Nick Fradiani – Beautiful Life anthem :22
“To me, the first time I heard ‘Beautiful Life’, the first word I thought of was anthem, it felt like a big anthemic song and I think a lot of people felt that way. Fox picked it up as the FIFA World Cup song. It’s a powerful song, the lyrics are powerful, the instrumentals are powerful, and I think that’s an important thing to have when you release your first single. I lucked out, Chris Carrabba wrote a killer song and I’m just proud to be a part of it.”
