Their video for Times Square, directed by Frank Kadillac and Alex Gayoso, gives you a feeling of hope. The song itself is an ode to a lover, someone they hope to meet again. "I come from a place where seeing people in love was only in movies," said Kadillac. "I was always curious about love and everything that came with it. Being a musician, I realized most of my relationships and friendships are going to be long-distance until I stop touring. That's a true challenge in itself.". 

Filmed in New York City, the visuals for the video see the band wandering around the Big Apple, soaking up the city’s bright lights and feelings of hope. NYC is typically associated with the “place where dreams come true” and what better place to fall in love than Times Square.
