After recently teasing fans and followers with sneak peeks of his latest video, John Legend officially released it over the weekend, and YouTube is struggling to cope right now.

Featuring his wife Chrissy Teigen and baby daughter Luna, the video for Love Me Now has given everyone a major case of the feels.

Acknowledging the timing of the video's release, 37-year-old John told Instagram users: "We didn't think about the election when we planned the release date for this song and video. But in this time of conflict and uncertainty, it's clear that we all need more love."

"I find it in my family and in my music. Embracing my family has made today full of love and light despite the bad new," he said in reference to Donald Trump's win in the presidential election.

"But it's also important that we show love and empathy to people who may not look like us or live like us. Those who are marginalised and rejected, feared and left behind."

 

It's been quite a time for the United States and the rest of the world as we all watched the election results come in early Wednesday morning. Some of us wept for our country. Some of us celebrated. Some of us are already taking to the streets in protest. You all know how I wanted and expected the election to go. I wanted us to choose unity and inclusion over building walls and singling out ethnic and religious groups for hate and suspicion. I wanted us to choose progress over yearning for some long-lost mythical era when America was supposedly greatest. I wanted us to destroy the highest glass ceiling instead of electing an admitted sexual assaulter. But we did not. These are the election results and all of us will have to learn to deal with it. I will not give up though. I will continue to be aware and vigilant. I will continue to speak out for justice. We didn't think about the election when we planned the release date for this song and video. But in this time of conflict and uncertainty, it's clear that we all need more love. I find it in my family and in my music. Embracing my family has made today full of love and light despite the bad news. But it's also important that we show love and empathy to people who may not look like us or live like us. Those who are marginalized and rejected, feared and left behind. The video premieres Friday and features a diverse group of people from all over the world. From Standing Rock to Iraq, from Orlando to the DR. Love is universal. We all need it. We all can give it. And it will ultimately win over hate. I have to believe that. If you want to join in our celebration of love, use the hashtag #lovemenow and send us a picture of you and someone you care about.

Explaining the reasoning behind the latest track from his fifth studio album, he added: "Love is universal. We all need it. We all can give it. And it will ultimately win over hate. I have to believe that."

YouTubers wasted no time checking out the vid, with one writing: "This was so beautiful I'm tearing UP."

"Yeah, a light in the midst of political chaos," responded another.
