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 love it that he is finally able to be himself.
No entiendo. quién era antes?
@@Giselle.Zamorano 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. @@Giselle.Zamorano
I used to like the old David, but man, I really really love this David, being to free and authentic
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
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!!!!
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
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.
I 💓 you David Archuleta
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 🤩🫶🏽🇬🇧
David is so handsome, great video and great song.
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.
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"!!! ❤❤❤
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 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!
Video is pure happiness and I love it
Cool video and great song, I’m so glad that you’re finally happy being your true self
Hey, I don't understand why this video and your last video don't have a million views. Make it make sense!
It's hard being an independent artist! I share your frustration!
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 is moving forward, Outer Space. Great song!
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!
Another vibe song from David Archuleta?! I'm down for it!🙌🏼
Such a beautiful human. ❤❤❤
OMG! I just realized that is Brandon Bryant who was Britney's main dancer and he choreographed iit!! yeeeeesss
You are in the top 20 on itunes!
Who repeated this 100 times? 🥰👌 Amazing David..
ME!
Magic happens when you’re authentic… great song, so happy for you❤
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
Radio definitely needs to play it
Who else came here after listening to crush I sure did
Seriously the grade 8 kid in me is dying and dancing as I am now hahaha David Archuleta!!!!! 🎉❤
This is a jam. Wow. Needs more likes and views expeditiously!
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. 👍🤟🥰
Thanks for all the love for the video everyone, I had so much fun directing this video, with the message to be vibrant and live your life in color! David, so happy to have you as a friend now, such a true gentleman! @hammerbrad
Yes...so vibrant, colorful, meaningful and joyful! Such a great video, it deserves an award, as does the song. So good! ❤🏆
Thank you!! @@jtara9266
Why did you use the white-and-black pattern of the Freemasons?
@@TravelLoverForLife LOL...I used what the studio had available. I had to google what Free Mason even is ,, but think what you want silly
Wow I like his new style and dances! :)
Glad you are back!
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 🫶❤️🙏
The orange\blue outfit served
I could hear this in a dance club mix!
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
Keep singing david...you got a new era...😎👏✨
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!
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.🤗🌻🦋🦸♂️😍😘♥️
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.
The tears are coming this is what you are all about happiness is flowing from your voice
FIrst off nice dance moves David! I see you hitting that choreo!!🤣🤣. As I was listening to the song it made me realize the importance of it's message and it made me want to cry. I'm so happy that your not "afraid to love" no more and "not gonna care what anyone else says." I know it's gonna inspire a lot of people in your position. Now that I got the sappy stuff out of the way this song is so catchy and has an amazing beat to it. When I first looked it up on your Instagram and heard a snippet I was hooked and I was not dissapointed.
this new sound fits you like a glove David! LOVE LOVE LOVE "i'm yours" and LOVE LOVE LOVE "afraid to love"
David need a better PR team. With songs and videos like this, he should be at the top of the charts and millions of views!
I am feeling a lot better about DA now, with this video. He"s gonna make it.
LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE & LOVE
so happy to see david archuleta in 2023
Why isn't this a huge #1 hit???? (: LOVE IT!!!!!!! (: (: (: (: (:
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!
😉
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

Hey David Archuleta, did you secretly hire a musical hypnotist for your new song? 🎵🧠 It's so insanely catchy and brainwashing that I can't escape its clutches! 🕺💃 Seriously, it's like my mind is on a perpetual loop of your awesome melody. Embracing the color and embracing myself never felt this groovy. Keep the musical spells coming! 🪄🎶 #HookedOnArchuleta #davidafraidoflove

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.
One of best songs and videos of David. He is so confident, I love it ✨🏳️🌈❤
