Whether you’re a Christian music fan or not there’s a good chance you’ve heard Lauren Daigle’s hit song, You Say. It was released as a single on July 13, 2018 and since then has reached the unprecedented milestone of 100 weeks in the No. 1 slot of the Hot Christian Songs chart. From the incredible advice she gives on anxiety to the support she shows for up-and-coming artists… what’s not to love about this incredible woman?
My favorite Lauren Daigle fun fact many people don’t know is when she was 17 she auditioned for American Idol! She made it all the way to the Top 24 when Simon Cowell’s “no” sent her home. She didn’t let that “no” stop her from continuing to pursue music, landing a record deal, and becoming the Grammy winning artist we know today.

“I want this to be such a record of joy, such a record of hope, that people experience a childlikeness again. In the time of making this record, I had to remember who I was as a child. I want people to reflect on, the innocence of my childhood… how do I see myself through those eyes again? How do I love myself like that again? Where’s that joy? Where’s that hope?

This song for me was just a reminder of identity. It was a reminder that I know when I’m weak, He’s strong-so how do I change that and bring that into my everyday life? When I feel inadequate how is it that there’s always these moments where I feel these moments where I feel like God just steps in and supersedes my inadequacies.
This entire song was so every single day I would get up on stage and remind myself-no, this is the truth, this is the truth, this is the truth. Don’t get buried in confusion.” – Lauren Daigle | Billboard
