With his latest single “Superman,” Jimmy Charles provides his audience with a heartfelt tune that is equally emotional and inspiring, as it delves into the struggles one faces in the battle against cancer. He recently released a video for the song via YouTube, which portrays a loving family-man who is healthy and enjoying life when he receives a call from his doctor telling him he has been diagnosed with cancer. The man reacts as many people would — he gets lost in his own mind and has a hard time facing the reality of the situation and his family. He wants to be strong for his family but realizes he can’t do it on his own; “No One’s Superman.” His spouse and children support him through his cancer; his son even gives him a Superman cape before he goes in to chemotherapy, giving him the strength he needs to push through.
As the tendency in society is to feel invincible to horrible circumstances such as cancer, these tough moments when life sends you a curveball is sure to touch home with a vast audience. Made to lend encouragement to anyone facing this horrible disease, both the song and video give listeners assurance that even in the hardest of times, they are not alone in this world.
“Superman” has been released just in time for September—Prostate Cancer Awareness Month—and half of the proceeds from iTunes sales will be donated towards the ZEROCancer campaign (http://zerocancer.org/), who additionally sponsor Charles’ video.
