Los Angeles – Today, critically acclaimed pop artist, Betty Who, unveils the music video for her cover of Donna Lewis’ “I Love You Always Forever.” Vogue praised the video, stating: “She finds herself in that pillowy camp with her latest cover of Donna Lewis’s ‘I Love You Always Forever,’ echoing the doe-eyed romantic optimism of the original, released in 1996.” The Australian singer’s cover of the classic 90’s hit serves as a precursor to her long-awaited album, which is set to release later this year.
Betty Who says of the video, “I think the song ‘I Love You Always Forever’ applies to so many relationships in my life. Some lines remind me of my boyfriend, others remind me of my best friend, one reminds me of my dad… There’s so much more to it than just a romantic love song and love comes in so many different forms in all of our lives. From loving the kale salad at Grey Dog Cafe to falling so deeply in love with somebody, you feel like your heart has been ripped out of your chest. But there’s something about complete, non-judgmental, unconditional love that jumps fences and crosses oceans. Intimacy can be shared with a friend, a husband, a wife, a parent, a stranger… I wanted to show that intimate, unconditional love, even if only for a few minutes. I think we all could use a little more of it in our lives right about now. Love is love. Humans are humans. And maybe we’re all just waiting to be loved by somebody.”
Best New Bands first fell in love with Betty Who in 2014, when we saw her wow Seattle, during her first U.S. tour. Later that year, Betty Who released her debut album Take Me When You Go, which was received by overall positive reviews by critics. Betty Who quickly built a strong fanbase around the world, known as the Who Crew. We at Best New Bands can say we’ll be listening to “I Love You Always Forever,” while all of us in the Who Crew patiently wait for the Australian pop sensation’s sophomore album!
“I Love You Always Forever” is available for purchase on iTunes. In August, Betty Who will be performing at Hellow Festival in Obrera, Mexico, and in September, she’ll be preforming at Fashion Meets Music Festival in Columbus, Ohio. Follow Betty Who on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram.
