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 ❤🎉💯
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?
@@Kevin8703_yt 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. @@Kevin8703_yt
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
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.
Impossibly adorable. I've watched this fifty times in the last month.
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!!!!
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"!!! ❤❤❤
Magic happens when you’re authentic… great song, so happy for you❤
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.
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🥰
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!!!!
Such a beautiful human. ❤❤❤
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
He looks genuinely happy!!! ❤️
I 💓 you David Archuleta
Video is pure happiness and I love it
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.
Keep singing david...you got a new era...😎👏✨
No one has ever discouraged you to come out. We were all waiting for it. Congrats and welcome to the family. You are loved.
The tears are coming this is what you are all about happiness is flowing from your voice
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!
LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE & LOVE
This is moving forward, Outer Space. Great song!
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!
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
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!
😉
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 🫶❤️🙏
Another vibe song from David Archuleta?! I'm down for it!🙌🏼
this new sound fits you like a glove David! LOVE LOVE LOVE "i'm yours" and LOVE LOVE LOVE "afraid to love"
So proud of you, David. So happy for you and everyone who finds freedom in love. "This can never be wrong"
Very uplifting and fun!!!
Beautiful! 🎵
David its like your body has been unleashed into a free spirit! Who knew you could cut a rug like that!!!!!
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!
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
❤ 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 ❤
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!!! 🥰
David is so handsome, great video and great song.
Super happy for you David!
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. 👍🤟🥰
what a joy you are @davidarchie - THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!
🙏🌈🙏🌈🙏🌈
Man, this made me cry. I felt this
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)
Wow.... the sky is the limit David... what a wonderful new David we are experiencing.... congrats.... the best so far
I'm so happy for you, David. 💚💚💚
Thank God David is back in the world of Music 🙏😇🤗
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
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.
Being happy is contagious and powerful.
I produced this song for David and we wrote it together with Jeremy Thurber. David is literally one of my favorites to work with in the studio... Such a sweet guy with immense talent and so professional. We've made a ton of stuff that is incredible so hopefully it'll all come out. @willybeamanmusic @bleachxmusic @davidarchie
We love this team!! ❤ Really hope we get to hear all that you worked on together!!
You Killed it! David's new team is incredible! The music, the videos, the wardrobe..all of it!
Looking forward to hearing more !!
Thank you SO VERY MUCH for your collaboration!! Amazing song and music video!! Greetings from fans in INDONESIA 🇮🇩 🙏🏼
🎉Congratulations!
Love love love

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!
I love the joy and energy in this video. Seeing you just be you and be so happy is so amazing. 😊
Really great song David.... and the message will help many!
David! Amazing ! So so proud of you! Now GO LIVE YOUR BEST LIFE!
Brad Hammer and David Archuleta are a match made in heaven! The video is as vibrant as David's voice, perfect
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.
I remember you when… loved you then, love you now. Great song! Blessings ❤
Why isn't this a huge #1 hit???? (: LOVE IT!!!!!!! (: (: (: (: (:
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!
this music video made me so happy 🥹 i followed your story since i was 11 and now im 23 . im glad you achieve the stage where you feel free to share about whatever youve been hiding inside for such a long time . i love you and im so proud of you 🥺❤️🩹 loyal fans since 2011 !
I love how personal this song is. Don't ever be afraid to love, dear David. You deserve to be happy even if it might take you time to realise that.
He looks free spirited and out of a shell finally. Such a fun video and the song is too good.
Cool video and great song, I’m so glad that you’re finally happy being your true self
You all did that!!
Hey David! I'm proud of you! You came a long way since Murray High! I'm proud of you!
I adore David and am so proud of him for coming out!
So completely joyful David! You are still the same wonderful you but 1000x lighter and happier it makes me grin ear to ear! I love it that this is a personal story and this is your brand new chapter bursting with colors and energy!!! Thank you for always sharing your journey with us through your amazing music! 🔥🕺🏻❤🔥🎶🌈
I can't wait to see "the making of" this video. They are always SO much fun to watch.🥰
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.
The song is a vibe, and I'm happy for David.
You are in the top 20 on itunes!
What a lovely lovely thing to see you fly high be happy young man. Obsessed new fan 😅 from 🇬🇧
One can't help but Love David... Great singer & so handsome..
I love the part when he sings "Close The Door' at 01:37 ❤ Gives me Goosebumps! Love the Vibe David ✨ Let Us not be afraid to Love and Be Who We Are ! 🥰
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
I am feeling a lot better about DA now, with this video. He"s gonna make it.
YESSSS DAVID
I've never seen you smile so much! I hope you finally get the recognition that you deserve. You will always be the more talented and deserving David imo. I hope you achieve the success you deserve.
Lots fun and lots colors!!! It sounds you’re very happy now. So is this mean you are in love with someone? ? When you see someone shine as much as your doing now , love? Good job man be happy you deserve it.
I’m loving this era you’re in now, David! Your joy, energy, and authenticity are infectious 💙
Love! Love! Love! What inspiration and heart your art has now that you are your authentic self, David. And the boy can dance! We love the real you!
