Singer Niall Horan sings “Finally Free” from the new animated film “Smallfoot”. The vocal and guitar-heavy song perfectly capture the importance of having a good friend by your side and not being afraid of the unknown.

“When you're right here beside me,
There's nothing else I need,
Your eyes keep me reminded,
That nothing's out of reach,
When you're with me,
It feels like I'm finally free,
Feels like I'm finally free”

The fanciful movie takes the idea of “Bigfoot” and turns it around. The storyline follows a young Yeti who has lived his life believing that humans were not real. One day, that myth is shattered when he stumbles across the unimaginable – a “smallfoot”. When this Yeti tries to share his great find with the rest of the Yeti community it brings chaos to their town.

The song “Finally Free” serves an an encouraging anthem of perseverance, following your heart, and deep friendship. There is no doubt that the song alone will become wildly popular with it’s catchy tune and Niall’s powerful voice.

Addressing the fears of the first step into the unknown, something we have all battled at some point, the lyrics offer a voice to those concerns that we all face. If we don’t take a leap of faith, how will we learn what’s out “there”?

“Standing here on my own,
Yeah, the first step's the hardest
when you're walking into the unknown,
It's been dark, and it's been cold,
Had my head in the clouds never knowing what lies down below”
