Hit songs are associated with the artistes that perform them but that's far from the truth. The quality of a song in its innocence starts from the heart to the pen then on to the first lips that ever sings it.



Kara Dioguardi is an American singer/songwriter and producer who has been the essence behind many hit pop songs. She has written songs for Christina Aguilera, Gwen Stefani to Australian artists such as Kylie Minogue. She has won many song-writing awards for her talents proving herself as a major talent in the industry.



However in addition to her writing ability, Kara also has a wonderful voice and rocking image which could put her in the ranks of Sheryl Crow and others. Watch her on Youtube or see her live performing songs that she has written for countless artistes or for her band Platinum Weird, you see a quiet musician who could have been a major international star from day one.
