I am a fan (and you should be too), because...

In my opinion, good music is music you can deeply connect with and I feel that every track on Daughtry's album is something anyone can relate to. The lyrics are so real and so inspiring.
I find that whatever life brings to my table, Daughtry's music can relate me back to it, or help me get through a particular moment and push forward. Through hardships, through excitement, through failure or success, there seems to be a song that ties in with every experience.
I have been a dedicated fan of Chris since he auditioned for American Idol, and my feelings toward him continue to expand each day. He has taught me that coming in first place doesn't make you a sure success. Being true to yourself and letting your love for something take you to higher levels is the real definition of success and accomplishment. Chris has taken me, as well as all his amazing fans, through an incredible journey. I've laughed, I've cried. I've stayed up endless hours voting and I've stood outside for 6 hours just to say hi to him. Honestly, I would not take a second of that back. And now, here we are. Journey one complete, and a new one to embark on. Now, as a devoted fan, I get to experience a new journey with not only Chris, but also with four other amazing guys. All who are extraordinary musicians, who you can tell care tremendously about the fans they have acquired over the past few months.
I am a fan because Daughtry is phenomenal, talented, gorgeous, hard-working and have ample amounts of love and respect for their fans and the people who are behind them all the way. I am a fan because their presence and their music give me a reason to be happy every day. Seeing just a new video or even a new picture can bring my spirits up during a rough time. I am a fan not because people tell me to be, but because I want to be. I am a fan because I believe Daughtry truly deserves the best fans in the world!
