I have been lucky within the past few years to come to know an incredible person and musician on a personal level. The name Robbie Rosen may not mean much to most of you but, to me, his name is synonymous with kindness, happiness, and positivity. Robbie, a past contestant on the tenth season of American Idol, has a light about him that's hard to sum up with just simple words on a web page. We've had some adventures together, things like baseball games and 1 a.m. diner chats. And, when I was with him, it never felt like I was with someone famous. Rather, I was with a friend. Someone I could laugh with and eat midnight toast with at a random New York diner.
Robbie has become such a huge part of my life and now it's time to share him with you all. As well as having original music out there, which you can easily find on both iTunes and Spotify, Robbie has posted many incredible covers both independently as well as with some of his vocal students. (Because, yes, along with being an incredible person, he's also a teacher. I know. It's unfair how perfect this man is.) So keep reading to discover just five of the best covers, in my opinion, Robbie has ever done. But I surely encourage all of you to find out more about him. Check him out on YouTube, Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram!
Let's jump into it, shall we? In no particular order...
1. "Say Something" by A Great Big World
4. "Drag Me Down" by One Direction
5. "When I Was Your Man" by Bruno Mars
