Demi Lovato illustrates her resilience in the face of recent personal issues in the new single "Skyscraper," which was released to iTunes early Tuesday morning (July 12).
Produced and co-penned by Toby Gad, the ballad showcases the 18-year-old's quivering voice as she sings about "catching teardrops in my hand," but her strength allows to keep "rising from the ground, like a skyscraper." The singer eventually displays her powerful range as breathy backing vocals and heavy percussion fill in the spaces left by a lonely piano in the beginning of the track.
