Life Unfolds Fast is narrated by the Spandau Ballet star and penned by poet Georgie Jones, with the poem a heartfelt exploration of the milestones that shape our lives.
From proposals and marriage to saying goodbye to parents, sending off their child to the first day of school, the poem captures the essence of love, family and connection.
Kemp showcases intimate moments from his family life by sharing home videos featuring his family —wife Shirlie, son Roman and daughter Harley– adding a personal touch to the shared human experience.
The poem was commissioned by Samsung to celebrate the launch of the new Galaxy Z Fold7, the slimmest and lightest foldable smartphone yet, whilst also boasting its most expansive screen ever.
The Galaxy Z Fold7 is available for pre-order now on the Samsung website and other retailers, with general availability beginning July 25.
It helps to relive the moments, such as Martin’s, that matter to us most like never before.
Kemp said: “Some of my life’s greatest memories are those simple moments at home – playing with my kids in the garden, holding Harley and Roman as babies, and singing with my wife in the car.
“These are moments that truly define our lives. Sharing these personal glimpses allows people to see how small, intimate moments become the big memories we want to go back to over again.”
