Dia Frampton Falls For "The Broken Oness"

Dia Frampton, who came in second on the first season of NBC's "The Voice," released her first video for "The Broken Ones," a cover of a 2007 song by the contemporary gospel group The Talley Trio, is the lead single from the folk pop singer's upcoming solo album "Red," her first album release post "The Voice" on December 6. Women always fall for the broken ones, and Frampton is no exception. The song has a nice melody and Frampton's voice is, as always, enchanting, though the lyrics are a little cumbersome at times.
There is life and a career for those who lose a reality talent competition. This 24-year-old first season runner-up from St. George, Utah is half Korean and half Dutch. Her career aspiration has been to be a voice-over actress, but her considerable singing talents may just steer her elsewhere. A life-long bookworm, Frampton also writes novels and children's books. Describing the concept of the video, she said: "I'm the protector of the broken ones. We live out in the forest and some invaders come in and we battle them and of course we win!"
"The Broken Ones," is a pop-rock power ballad that finds Frampton wanting to protect all the disenfranchised people of the world. The song has a folk inspired vibe and the lyrics tell a story about being able to love someone, even with all of their flaws. "It's just a beautiful song about loving the faults that people have," Frampton says of the track. "I've done that a lot in my life. If somebody has something that some people think is weird or a little off, that's something I'm drawn to the most."
The new single showcases Frampton's stunning vocal range and ability to translate a more folk song into a pop hit. In the stylish video for "The Broken Ones", Frampton plays piano outside under trees before walking in a field among warring factions and admitting how she loves the broken people in life. Frampton comforts fallen pals on the ground before war breaks out between what looks like two tribes of hipsters. Directed by David McClister, who told that "The Broken Ones" is described as a cross between 'Where the Wild Things Are,' 'Lord of the Flies,' and 'Peter Pan's Lost Boys'."
