I know we’ve been showing lots of new videos of late, but hey, we’re a music site and we love music videos.
Fight For Love, which is Elliott Yamin’s first single to his upcoming album (which drops next week), has been out for a minute, but the video was recently finished and released.
I’m not sure if I’m down with the mulletted look, but hey, this isn’t a beauty pageant. The dude can sing.
Some people fight for love …
Given the popularity of some of our “American Idol” posts, I know there are a lot of Elliott Yamin fans out there. Hell, I’m one myself (I just listened to “Wait for You” on my iPod yesterday). The guy’s certainly got the right influences, and his take on R&B is refreshing and most importantly, well sung.
As you know, Elliott’s new album, “Fight for Love”, comes out on May 5th, and if you click here, guess what? You can order a copy of the album with the cover signed by Elliott! Good music and a collectible! How ’bout that?
Now, click on and buy the album. And don’t say I never gave y’all nothin’.

The first season of “American Idol” that I watched was the season in which Elliott Yamin competed, and it was largely due to him that I made it through that entire season and watched at least parts of subsequent seasons. The guy’s got skills, point blank, and enough people believed that to catapult Elliott to a 3rd place finish on the show. He then confounded critics by going the indie route and scoring a Gold album with his self-titled debut, which spawned the smash single “Wait for You”. Two years later, Elliott is back with a new album due in May and its’ first single “Fight for Love”. It’s a pretty, midtempo joint with a chorus that you won’t stop singing for days. As always, Elliott brings the goods vocally. No Auto-Tune needed for this cat.
AOL’s Popeater debuted the song. Listen to it here and let us know what you think.
