I love music and I love to dance. So does my family. You will often find us dancing around our kitchen or driving\u00a0in our car belting out a song at the top of our lungs. I think the reason we love music so much is that a happy song can always lift our spirits\u2026always!!! So I am always on the lookout for songs that will lift me up when I am down.<\/p>\n<p>About two months ago my husband and I went to a concert to hear The Piano Guys perform. During their concert they announced that they were debuting a brand new song and they were going to be filming the performance\u00a0to use in\u00a0their video. The song is called \u201cIt\u2019s Gonna Be Okay\u201d \u2013 the lyrics were written by Andy Grammer (who I LOVE) and Dave Bassett and the song is performed by Piano Guy Al Van der Beek. The second I heard the song I was IN LOVE with it and its message!!! I knew I had to download it so I could belt it out at the top of my lungs and dance around whenever I was having a down day because without question it is the\u00a0PERFECT pick me up song! But\u00a0for two months now I have had to wait patiently for the song to\u00a0be released so I could download it and FINALLY it has been!\u00a0\u00a0My first thought was that I had to\u00a0share it immediately with all of you so you could belt it out and lift your spirits too!<\/p>\n<p>Below is the video for the\u00a0song &#8211; you have to hear it for yourself! The lyrics are also\u00a0shared below the video.\u00a0 I promise you that if you listen\u00a0to it you will find that it is IMPOSSIBLE\u00a0not to be cheered up when you hear it!!!!
