The song speaks profoundly of unconditional love and acceptance, assuring the people in our lives of our undying love and enduring support. They are loved regardless of their flaws. Life is sometimes tough and knowing that we have friends and family to carry us through is what matters most. We are never alone. The song carries a message of growth, hope and encouragement. Never be afraid to take chances, find your courage and reach for your dreams.
“This song written in conjunction with Howie Combrink and Sevven is about the power of love and what true love really means to each of us,” says Timothy, “love can and will conquer all!”
The music video for the single, directed by Howie Combrink and Sevven, was shot in various local theatres. It reflects the challenges faced at the height of the pandemic and the impact it had on the lives of those working in the entertainment industry. Venues were closed, audiences were non-existent, artists and everyone working in the arts were not able to make a living. The backdrop of the video is empty seats in theatres, putting the spotlight on a struggling industry. Watch the official music video for ‘Love Is Never Blind’ HERE.
