Sara Bareilles releases new video about coming out

Since releasing Love Song back in 2007, Sara Bareilles has been hovering barely beneath the radar with a string of well-received songs that have gone mostly ignored by radio stations. In that respect, here’s her latest video for “Brave,” a great song that will probably go neglected by most radio and TV stations.

Written by Bareilles and Fun’s Jack Antonoff, it was apparently inspired by Bareilles watching one of her friends struggle to come out of the closet.
