A few months ago, my fiance played a song for me that she absolutely loved. I listened and kinda liked it at first, but wasn't 100% sold on it at that time.

Flash forward a couple months, and not only was I wrong initially, but now it's easily my favorite song on the radio.

Of course, I'm talking about the hit single "Issues" from Iowa native Julia Michaels.

The song is simply as catchy as it gets, and it's currently rising up any chart that has to do with this genre of music. Naturally, I didn't know much about Julia Michaels at first, so I did a little research.

Michaels has already, at the age of 23, collaborated with some of the biggest stars in music including Demi Lovato, Fifth Harmony, Justin Bieber, Jason Derulo, Kelly Clarkson, Selena Gomez, Zara Larsson and Britney Spears.

With that type of resume, it's no secret that "Issues" was going to take off.

Then I looked for a live version. Any time I come across a relatively newer artist, I check out their live stuff to make sure they really have it.

Let me say  this, Julia Michaels singing her hit song live, and only with acoustics, is purely magical. The song you'll hear on the radio is, of course, wonderful, but hearing her sing it live is simply pure and borderline emotional.

What a voice, you have to hear this!
