Singer-songwriter Cory Singer is among a new wave of artists using the relatively fresh platform of TikTok to express their singing and songwriting talents. With over 1 billion users across 150 countries the short-form video hosting service has become a serious player in gaining recognition for musicians alike.

Cory Singer has become a popular sensation as a social media and TikTok influencer. With over 409k followers and 15 million likes (TikTok) and full verification across Twitter, Facebook and Instagram, he promotes positivity by inspiring others with his unique brand, music, and personal experiences with his autism.

We took a listen to his latest release Chance of a Lifetime (The Truth). It’s a delicate yet powerful number showcasing Cory’s great vocals, containing theatrical elements supported by a strings section. (Listen below).

The lyrics speak to listeners about a missed opportunity, expressing a lost love gone away. Additionally, the instrumentation throughout the song offers a contemplative mood through the soft piano and delicate strings that invite the listener into a still-hearted yet clear-cut sentiment. The powerful vocals accompanied by the light percussion also create a path for the listener to almost march through the song with sympathetic ears that take us through a pondering, yet the wistful approach to how we felt at times when we have been in love and then realize that we must move on. “Chance of a Lifetime (The Truth)” is not just a song about lost love, but it offers a chance for listeners to empathize with Singer in his deepest and most vulnerable state. Not only are listeners thoroughly engaged by their sympathy from the lyrics but are also empowered by the ballad-style piano and robust vocals throughout. “Chance of a Lifetime (The Truth)” is a song that forces you to empathize with and will most certainly leave you speechless. 

Not only has Cory gained great initial recognition through social media, he’s now also on the board of directors for the I Am Able Foundation, as well as an ambassador for the Sound Mind Network. He recently was invited to perform for the New Jersey Devils, and also performed in Atlantic City for the Sound Mind Network music festival alongside The Bacon Brothers (Kevin Bacon and Michael Bacon), Johnny Showcase of America’s Got Talent, and celebrity chef and songwriter Tony Luke Jr.
