The Maine's Video For 'Am I Pretty?' Drops A Powerful Message About Self-Love

Yes, #YouArePretty

The Maine's effervescent jam "Am I Pretty?" is basically a tsunami of self-love. Get ready to be hit right in the feels.

The song from the band's latest full-length album American Candy puts a powerful emphasis on finding peace with your flaws and feeling comfortable in your own skin and provides comfort for anyone struggling with anything from confidence and weight, gender identity and bullying, to abusive parents -- letting them know they are not alone.

The lyrics replicate the sad, inner dialogue we've all had with ourselves at one point or another, asking, "Am I pretty? Do people like me yet? / Is there a party? Am I invited?"

The Maine promotes individuality and positivity, tackling self-esteem and expectations, shutting down negitivity with the refreshing lyrical mantra: "There's beauty and grace in the flaws of your face."

"You are beautiful because there never has been, nor will there ever be anyone else on this Earth like you," lead vocalist John O'Callaghan wrote on the band's Facebook page. "Because your flaws are like fingerprints and should be embraced just like the free will that resides inside. You are not beautiful because of the symmetry in the little squares on your telephone, you are beautiful because 'you' are the only 'you' this place will ever know."

The message of the groovy, uplifting track has made an impact on listeners:
