Demi Lovato unveiled a video for her new tender track "Give Your Heart a Break," the second single from Lovato's third album, "Unbroken." Definitely one of the highlights on her latest album, the new track is a clever, well-written, and well-sung mid-tempo pop song. Its three and a half minutes worth of footage shows the singer and a hunky romantic interest in a range of flirty and cuddly moments as Lovato belts out her catchy tune.
Musically, "Give Your Heart a Break" is an uptempo pop and dance ballad that incorporates the use of drums, violin and strings, and contains influences of rock music as well as music from the 80s and 90s. Lyrically, the song chronicles an attempt to win over one who has been hurt from a previous relationship, and wanting someone to open his heart to her and to give her a chance. According to MTV, she explained that despite the play on the word "heartbreak" in the title, the song is about the exact opposite. "It isn't a song about having a broken heart. This is a song about faith, it's a song about fighting for the one you love," she said.
Go far and beyond anything in Lovato's prior arsenal, the track is oh-so-catchy and her vocals effortlessly mop the floor with your fave’s wig. The 19-year-old Stay Strong diva dished about the video in an interview with MTV: "The new music video, I'm basically trying to convince a guy that I didn't break his heart, and we get into a fight and I try to win him over again. So I do something special for him at the end of the song."
The Justin Francis-directed clip tells a pretty typical story of young love followed by heartbreak, as it mostly just shows a regretful Lovato reminiscing about the good times she had with her former 'hunky' love via some old pictures, and ultimately making a huge collage on a wall in front of her ex-boyfriend's apartment so he can check it out, so maybe they can work things out again?
