It is a situation many men dread, and those who have survived it, never forget. The song attempts to make the listener feel the torment but be too catchy to feel sad.
“This is the third of our Strange Halloween Trilogy of songs released in October,” said Loveforce International CEO Mark Thomas. “The first was Scary, by Anna Hamilton and second was Trump’s Biggest Fear by The Loveforce Collective.

Anna Hamilton’s “Scary” is about the scary feelings some have about falling in love, The Loveforce Collective’s “Trump’s Biggest Fear” illustrates how even The President can have fears and Billy Ray Charles’ release, about a subtle fear that comes with any romantic relationship.”
