In her radiant words, Ally Brooke declares, “‘Can You See’ is a beautiful song that follows a story of the star. It's a very inspirational song.” Though her tone is gentle, her message carries the depth of celestial wisdom. For here she speaks not only of melody, but of meaning—the union of art and spirit, where song becomes a reflection of the heavens. In her praise of “Can You See,” she honors the age-old power of music to point mankind toward something higher: to the light of hope, the guidance of faith, and the beauty that shines even in the night.

The phrase “a story of the star” carries profound symbolic weight. Since ancient times, stars have been the compass of both travelers and dreamers. To follow a star is to follow a promise, as did the wise men in the story of the Nativity, guided by a light in the darkness to the cradle of peace. The origin of Ally Brooke’s reflection lies in this same tradition—her song speaks of divine direction, of seeing what others might overlook, and of finding meaning in the vastness of creation. For in every age, humanity has looked upward to the stars and asked the same question: Can you see?

To see, in this sense, is not merely to look with the eyes, but to perceive with the soul. The star that Ally sings of is both real and metaphorical—it represents clarity amidst confusion, light within despair. In calling it “inspirational,” she acknowledges that art, like starlight, does not instruct through force, but awakens through wonder. The ancients spoke of muses, celestial beings who whispered inspiration into human hearts. In her song, Ally becomes such a muse herself, using voice and story to remind listeners that there is guidance even when the path is dim.

History is filled with such songs of the spirit. The psalms of David lifted weary hearts toward the divine, while the hymns of Hildegard of Bingen, written a thousand years ago, turned the silence of cloisters into echoes of paradise. Each, in their own way, “followed the story of the star”—not a literal one, but a symbol of higher purpose. Like them, Ally Brooke sings not to impress, but to illuminate. Her “beautiful song” becomes an offering, a bridge between heaven and earth, reminding us that music is not merely sound—it is light made audible.

There is also humility in her words, for she does not claim authorship over inspiration. She says not “I am inspirational,” but “the song is inspirational.” In this, she mirrors the wisdom of true artists through the ages, who have known that they are vessels through which beauty passes. The sculptor Michelangelo once said that his statues already existed within the marble—he merely freed them. Likewise, the singer who feels her art deeply knows that the music already lives in the universe; she is but the one who gives it voice.

From Ally’s reflection, a lesson emerges: that we too must learn to see the star in our own lives. In a world clouded by noise and distraction, inspiration still burns quietly, waiting for the heart that looks upward. Like the traveler guided by starlight, we must move through the night with faith that the light we follow is real. Whether it is the spark of creativity, the warmth of kindness, or the whisper of purpose, our “star” calls us to rise, to seek, and to believe.

Thus, her words invite us to live as listeners—to find the music hidden in ordinary things, to honor the beauty that shines even when unseen. “Can You See” becomes not just a title, but a challenge to all of us. Can we see beyond doubt, beyond fear, into the realm of inspiration that surrounds us? If we can, then, like Ally Brooke, we may learn to turn our own lives into songs—melodies of light, guiding others as the stars have always guided humankind.
