Rachel is famous for “Fight Song,” but this track also really resonates.

When you’re struggling with relationships with family or a partner, listening to it warms the heart and helps you feel more compassionate toward them.

At the beginning of the music video, there’s an explanation that Rachel invited her fans specifically for this MV and conducted an experiment to see how the invited families and couples would react while the song played as they sat on a sofa looking into each other’s eyes.
