Noticeable artists are becoming famous off songs that have catchy choruses of partying, weed, or a good time, but I think the main thing that distinguishes a good artist from a great one is the message that the singer delivers. Alessia Cara’s popular new single, “Scars To Make You Beautiful” is memorable since it's a song with a great rhythm and nice beat conveying a powerful message.
The music video shows that we should not hide behind our scars,because whatever scars we have are what makes us different. Many people tell us to be afraid of what is different but differences are memorable. And Alessias new music video shows her audience that they should never be afraid to be themselves. The song's main focus is about self acceptance, and how hard it is nowadays for one person to love themselves fully. The song is called “Scars to your beautiful” since many men and women in society today believe that they must change who they are by altering their body or switching up the way the look to fit into society's expectations.
Certain quotes from the song stand out more than others. Quotes such as “No better you than the you that you are." For example, the music video focuses on the lives of many different people from transgender teens, to young adult cancer or a female with an eating disorder. All these different characters are exposed in the video to represent that whatever your situation or story you are beautiful in your own way and you must embrace your own beauty.
Whether internal or external scars, visible or invisible scars, these are the things that set you apart from one another, these are the things that make you beautiful.
