The Set List
Here she goes again. Demi Lovato returns with her second pop/rock affair, ‘Here We Go Again,’ and Soundcheck has your exclusive backstage pass.

-The Crew at Walmart Soundcheck
On Growing Up:
“I definitely think that this album is more of me. I got to write most of the album and put a lot of myself into it. I’ve changed a lot over the last year. It’s definitely a more mature version of my music.”
On Inspiration:
“Kelly Clarkson is a huge influence to me. She’s incredible. Christina Aguilera is an amazing vocalist. John Mayer is a really great musician. I’ve been a fan of all three of them for awhile. Also Paramore. They’re great!”
On Music Vs. Acting:
“I definitely think I am enjoying music more. Music is where I go to at the end of the day. If I’m having a really hard time, I’m not going to break into a monologue and start acting in my room. I’m going to write a song! It’s my therapy. That’s where I turn to; that’s what I’ve been more passionate about over the years.”
On Advice To Young Girls:
“My one piece of advice that I want to give young girls is: Never listen to what other people have to say. Always feel confident. Always feel beautiful.”

Don’t Forget
It’s on songs like ‘Don’t Forget’ that Demi’s vocals soar. Beginning slowly and building to a crescendo, Demi performs her most critically-acclaimed tune to date. ‘Don’t Forget’ is testament to the fact that sometimes the most understated words make the most powerful statement: “Our love is like a song. You can’t forget it.”
Get Back
“Don’t walk away like you always do,” cautions Demi on this delicious and danceable track from her debut disc, ‘Don’t Forget.’ Wearing black leggings and a green t-shirt under a black vest, Demi struts the stage like a seasoned performer – and an angry girlfriend. ‘Get Back’ is classic, catchy Lovato rock.
Here We Go Again
Completing her set with the title track from her brand new disc, Demi delivers a homerun. ‘Here We Go Again’ sounds like it was cooked up exclusively for the singer; it’s young, playful, and another girl power statement: “I tell everyone we are through. ‘Cause I’m so much better without you.”
La La Land
Demi kicks off her set with a song from her debut album, ‘Don’t Forget.’ Co-written with the Jonas brothers, ‘La La Land’ is a gutsy girl power anthem about staying true to yourself. It’s a message echoed recently in Kelly Clarkson’s song, ‘I Do Not Hook Up.’ Sings Demi: “Who said I can’t be single and have to go out and mingle? Baby, that’s not me.”
Remember December
It’s time for a trip back to the eighties with this rock-tinged track, one of the singer’s album favorites. We asked Demi to explain the track and discovered a personal connection. Explains the singer: “[It’s about] reminiscing on times where we weren’t fighting. Asking the person not to surrender to his friends.”
Solo
Clever and contagious, ‘Solo’ is another new track from Demi’s latest disc, ‘Here We Go Again,’ and it’s a surefire contender for second single. Explains Demi: “It’s kind of a play on words. It’s when a guy does something so low. It makes you want to go solo!”
