Thank you so much everyone for coming to watch and listen! I hope you enjoy it as much as the team and I did making it! 😄❤
Great lyrics it's a masterpiece indeed🇰🇪👏
IT'S SO GOOD! THANKS DAVID AND YOUR TEAM!
Amazing song - wonderful lyrics - bold, fun and energetic video - bright and beautiful - I love everything about it ❤❤❤
Afraid to love is best of August and my favorite song of 2023. Really worth to wait. Love it 😍😍😍❤❤❤
Estou até chorando de emoção 🥲 Que festa linda e que presentão que me deu!! Uma alegria imensa ver vc feliz assim e como sempre falo: todos podem ver. Nada necessário para ser excluído da infância, pq é tudo muito lindo as mensagens passada através da música! Vc é incrível e um brilho imenso para mim e milhões de fãs! Te amo muito ❤🎉💯
His energy and his spirit are so attractive. I used to have that energy and spirit. I miss it so much
I used to like the old David, but man, I really really love this David, being to free and authentic
I very much agree!
I love it that he is finally able to be himself.
No entiendo. quién era antes?
@@LaIrisBlanca Forcing himself to be like a straight man, because of the religion pressure... As what happens to many people around the world. Religions who don't accept who you are for who you are just kick them aside, its brainwash alert!! 🙄 These people didn't commit any crime or chose to be this way...
But no longer a mormon..... he obviously didn't believe it... just spoke it
@@rh8528 you mean, no mormon NOW because his religion kicked him out right away for the obvious reasons... Thats how it works for these religions unfortunatly...
He came out as queer. @@LaIrisBlanca
Another great song. Since the release of Hell Together, I’m rediscovering David all over again. He’s been out there doing his thing, i know. But now he’s getting louder with the wonderful lyrics he’s writing.
I love this video and the color splash really stood out. David’s outfits were on point and executed well in the video. Shout out to the stylist.
How is David's music not on the radio or huge hits? I don't get it. People don't seem to know good music when they hear it
As someone who grew up in the Mormon church, I appreciate this song so much. Because it’s been such a hard journey. Ultimately I chose to be myself and my own happiness and health. I relate to you a lot.
David’s got them Gen X Dad dance moves. But I freaking love him! 😂 Been following and supporting his music since American Idol and it’s amazing seeing how he’s grown over the years. So happy he left the cult.
God is ONLY love. Everything else is man’s ideas and opinions. ❤❤❤❤ love this
Can we just appreciate the feeling of this video? You can spend millions of dollars on a music video, but if it doesn't make you feel a way , then it's a waste. This video makes you FEEL HAPPY
EXACTLY!!!!
Such a colorful video, love it
He looks genuinely happy!!! ❤️
As someone who's been a fan since American Idol days, I've never seen David this happy in a music video before. Keep living your most authentic life, David! Will keep cheering you on! :)
Agreed❤
He should be happy... he's no longer a virgin!
Welcome back david archuleta
You totally broke through that “new door” David!! What an amazing explosion of fun, color, choreo, and style!!! And love the old clips & pics! They all have lead to amazing “David” you are today. Congrats to you, Brad Hammer, and all collaborators!! Afraid To Love is a joyous bop! ♥️🔥🎉💯
Thank you for the love! We appreciate you
❤@@hammerbrad
Dare I say that the era of David Archuleta is upon us!!! FINALLY!!! Always knew this is what David was destined for, the path has not always been clear and there have been bumps in the road, and some serious scares where he almost stopped his music career! I am so happy that he didn't stop and that he's finally found himself and is happy and comfortable in his own skin!!! David, keep it up!!! Loving the new music and the "new you"!!! ❤❤❤
This is moving forward, Outer Space. Great song!
Impossibly adorable. I've watched this fifty times in the last month.
I am so proud of you, for being who you are. May you be as happy as you make all of us! Don't let others bring you down. Your a gift from God. You are worth Loving.
I have 3 daughters. 1 is Bi, 1 is Gay and 1 is straight and I Love them all unconditionally. Again Thank You
Video is pure happiness and I love it
As a queer ex mormon, I just wanted to say thank you. I wish I could send this song back to my 14 year old self.
I felt this
Me too 🤩🫶🏽🇬🇧
Awe. You can send this song to your child self. Time isn’t linear. Go for it.
I relate to this song so much! It came just on time for me! It's so full of colors, joy, fun, happiness and hope! Thank you so much for inspiring us David! I love you! 🫶🏽❤️🎶
Magic happens when you’re authentic… great song, so happy for you❤
David, I have been Afraid to Love for a Very long time!!! Thank you for this song!!! Bless you my friend!! Bless you and thank you for coming out and being who you truly are!!! It gives the rest of us something to strive for!!!
Don't be afraid to love, that next one, could be THE ONE ❤❤
Amen & Amen!!!!
Another vibe song from David Archuleta?! I'm down for it!🙌🏼
The tears are coming this is what you are all about happiness is flowing from your voice
I see a lot of people praising David, deservedly so.. Please continue to support him when his new album comes out and he tours next year. 🙏🏽
Why? Because he is now publicly promoting his identity? No thank you. His music needs to be good.
I clearly said people who are praising him. Some, including myself, actually like his music. It's fine if you don't. thanks.@@1900intz
Proud of you David. I caught the little hidden messages in the video. The book of hate, Opening up new doors, transformation, your life went from black and white to color. The video is pretty damn genius. Now, lets talk about this song!!! This is probably my favorite song you have ever done. Are you doing remixes?!
Yeah! Love you caught all that :). @hammerbrad (Director)
I don't even have the words to tell you how much I love this song. It touches me to tears.❤
Thank you! I’ve had happy tears this morning too! 🥲 just so happy and grateful 🙏🏼
@@davidarchie Awww, I love your grateful 💗!
@@davidarchiedo you have any upcoming concerts or events. I hope to meet you someday. You have been a true inspiration to me and to a lot of people. I often wish our paths would cross as I think we would make good friends. You are true, genuine, and dear to your heart.
As always, you brought us a great song and a great performance. Love the song, love the rhythm and your dancing. Thank you David for being such a great artist and such a wonderful and inspiring human being.😊
@davidarchie I on the other hand have a broken heart of tears! Why so harsh? It doesn't need to be that way. God is crying tears of sadness too. Gay doesn't mean you have to condemn something that's so important to so many. Live your life David, we all have our free agency to make our own choices. You showing such disrespect of a representative of a sacred book is not needed, you're only hurting yourself.
David is so handsome, great video and great song.
It really sounds like from his lyrics that he has gone through a process of self-actualization and mindful liberation to arrive at a place where he now knows he has relational value and the right to life and love equal to that of any other person. I am so happy for him.
this new sound fits you like a glove David! LOVE LOVE LOVE "i'm yours" and LOVE LOVE LOVE "afraid to love"
Thank you for including us on your journey. Seeing you smile more and your song lyrics about acceptance in all facets of life. Your own happiness is very important. You are worthy🥰
I cannot describe how happy and amazed I am because of this new music. I am from that generation, I mean there’s barely age difference between David and I, but this new music is so refreshing. I am turning 30 in a few months now and I’ve kinda been feeling like “Older”. Like I needed to change many things in my life. I’ve always been in love with David and his music, and this is by far the happiest I’ve seen him. Bringing a new identity that glows. So happy!
Thank you for being part of my life David! ❤
I really hope you read this!
an absolute BANGER
You've found your stride! I think you need to do an entire DANCE ALBUM with full club remixes. We are here for it! xoxoxo
I am so glad you are in this era David. Our youth needs someone exactly like you with your exact story to relate to. Keep doing exactly what you are doing. The world needs you. The world needs this!
This is soooo good!!
why am I crying?????? THIS IS TOTALLY A BOP OF THE YEAR!!!!!
FLY HIGH DAVID ARCHULETA - U DESERVE IT!!!!!
I caught that Star Search clip! I've been on your trail since then, I'll have you know!
So proud of you, David. So happy for you and everyone who finds freedom in love. "This can never be wrong"
Really great song David.... and the message will help many!
To be a fan of David and see how he is happy and open about himself now is wonderful. Keep your amazing journey through this world, like you are: awesome!
😉
Very uplifting and fun!!!
Cool video and great song, I’m so glad that you’re finally happy being your true self
I just came back here after few years to see how you are doing, and I saw something in you that was not there before.
Please, dear David, I pray God will deliver you from that whatever it is I saw, and I pray that you will draw back to Him, and He loves you and He wants to use you for His glory, and you are too precious to drown in this whatever it is. That song beast. That beast must leave, in Jesus Name, the name that is above every other name.
Your song ‘glorious’ gave hope to many, including me. Thank God for it.
it may be wise to pay more attention to the beast within you, ma'am. we are sinners all. it is very clearly written.
I 💓 you David Archuleta
Keep singing david...you got a new era...😎👏✨
When David smiles, my heart melts into a pool of mushie goo. He is just the most beautiful brave man. Adore him. Come to Australia David for a massive hug!
Davids voice us so good, he doesn't need the gadgets to give him all the effects. His own pure voice & a good ballad will make him a superstar. He's much better than a cheezy pop artist.
Brad Hammer and David Archuleta are a match made in heaven! The video is as vibrant as David's voice, perfect
A have a huge crush with David since high school, and to see him now happy and exploring new things makes me love him even more. We're so proud of you, David! Always know that you're loved. 💕
Dearest David Archie, way to go! I am really happy for you and quite proud of you as well. Discovered you when you duetted with Peter Hollens and shared the vocal crush Peter had on you. Realizing the recent steps you took and the doors you pushed open, I am deeply moved and glad you can perform, live and be as the on you really are. Love from Hannover, Germany!
Hope David finds his soulmate soon. So, fame and fortune won't even matter at all. And I know he will make a beautiful father soon enough. I wish him and his future partner so many babies, they live in a designer shoe. Lol. He is such a golden hearted Capricorn, he deserves the best of all life has to offer. Glad to see him finally coming into his own, slowly but surely. Capricorn age in reverse. They volunteer pre-birth to go through all their earth lesson early. So, finally at around 30-50 they finally earned the right to mostly play.🤗🌻🦋🦸♂️😍😘♥️
Great! Great! Great! Love seeing you embrace your past to celebrate your now. Message of song is loud, clear and beautiful. Be you young man. 👍🤟🥰
I’m so happy for you, David.
If the US ever entered Eurovision I wouldn’t be mad as long as they chose you to represent 🎉🎉🎉
David its like your body has been unleashed into a free spirit! Who knew you could cut a rug like that!!!!!
Congratulations David hoping the next chapter in your life is filled with love and joy and many more years of health and happiness. It feels so amazing to finally be free and to be able to be yourself. Two handsome twinks. Love the track.
Hey David! I'm proud of you! You came a long way since Murray High! I'm proud of you!
This video had everything in it. Colors, childhood memories and more. I'm glad David was able to express of him self in this amazing video. Smiling and dancing 🫶❤️🙏
❤ this guy and how far he has come. His music now is just so full of him being proud of who he is and confidence ❤
Apart from the song, can I just say how much style he has here???? I love wearing bright colors, so I love the stuff he's wearing here!! :D:D:D:D
Super happy for you David!
Beautiful! 🎵
Confidence, Authenticity and Self-Respect Era has commenced. Much love 💕 🌈
This is a jam. Wow. Needs more likes and views expeditiously!
Wow!! Love the bright colors & fun dancing 🎊🎉🪩💃🏻🕺🏻
There is so much symbolism in this video. I would love to hear all the thoughts of the director and David came up with. I feel like there is even more than meets the eye. Great job to everyone involved in the video! And don't get me started on the song, it's a BOP BOP BOP!
Yes symbolism, that is offensive to me and need not be there. Satan can be very Suttle. One little step at a time. That's how he gets in and it can be a slippery slope, so be careful who follow and give your devotion to. Our Father in Heaven and his son Jesus Christ is the truth and the light and the way back to eternal life, with those we love and hold dear. This is the only truth on this Earth.
@@diane2852 No one is trying to please you. Why don't you go and worry about yourself b/c being judgemental is definitely not going to help you get into so called heaven.
@@diane2852 So sorry you were offended. You know what is offensive to gay people? Religious people telling us that who we are is wrong and immoral and we are Satanic. Why don't you mind your own business and worry about how your casting judgment on others will affect your own entry into heaven. Oh and by the way, Jesus was a liberal by any modern standard. Bye.
@@diane2852 Oh yes, a song about not being afraid to love yourself and others. What a horrible thing! You are so smart!
@@diane2852Hello ,if you dont mind me asking ,what are some of the things witch you find offensive?.
I believe in God too,but I dont see anything like you have discribed,I Will just like to know.Thank you anyway
Welcome to the life. I grew up Catholic and went through a similar experience but this just keep getting better. You deserve the best.
I love the joy and energy in this video. Seeing you just be you and be so happy is so amazing. 😊
I love your old songs, they are so healing to me, but I like this song too. Your songs are always so good! Life isn't all black and white. Thankfully we have all colors and we can love them all. I love you David. You are always in my heart! @davidarchie
So proud to be an arch angel since your american idol debut! Seeing you grow through your music & seeing you find happiness makes my heart happy ❤ !!! Keep doing you David!!! We'll always be here to support you!!! 🥰
Man, this made me cry. I felt this
I can't wait to see "the making of" this video. They are always SO much fun to watch.🥰
I adore David and am so proud of him for coming out!
Keep on keepin' on David. Hang in there and continue sharing your musical talent with the world. #ImWithYou
When David dances, I just get all giddy. Luv him. ♥ The color and the outfits in the video, fun! Can u imagine a club remix of this song?! 🔥
LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE & LOVE
DAVID
You always sang well, with a beautiful voice.
But God and Jesus Christ never taught hate, but established rules to be followed.
God and Jesus know your difficulties, and still continue to love you
When I tell you I was in tears watching this , I mean it. David - you look so happy, i cannot even tell you how good ii feels to watch this video. LOVE YOU!
I remember you when… loved you then, love you now. Great song! Blessings ❤

Such a happy and beautiful song! I love the color and the movement in the video...and your voice is sublime, as ever. Nothing makes me happier than seeing you live your truth with a smile, a true smile. You have come a long way, David, and give encouragement to so many people. People growing up nowadays are so very lucky to have you to look up to. You are doing God's work.
David, im a huge fan, im gald you found your authentic self and no longer afriad of love just like me, im an 65 yr old gay boomer im happily married to my latino hubby jessie, god bless you , keep on making those great songs. damn, young man, you got superb dancing moves, like i used to have in my youth in back in those 70's disco era days .

OMG I just learned of David's coming out story and it is rekindling my faith! Best thing that could have happened right as 2023 is ending! 2024 will be a year of love, of shedding fear and of hearts connecting
I love this video so much. I love the colors, your wardrobe, the hidden messages, the dancing, the old clips on the screen. All of it , so fun!
I love seeing you live authentically - you look so much happier!
