I have never been homeless, but have been mentally ill. I have seen and felt the effects of not being able to cognitively think for self. I have felt less of a man, less of a productive person and a non-contributor to life. I have felt even worse after suffering a terrible car accident after that and dealing with brain injury which left me with a form of traumatic brain injury. Homelessness is like that. A loss and then a disconnect. A set of unfortunate circumstances. Do Something.
This is sooo touching, how can you not like it? I love the score, it's beautiful, the title and it's genius to put it on such a sensitive impacting need such as homelessness. It's a travesty that many are left to fall by the wayside. And it's even more sickning for a society to watch and do nothing. I don't have much, but I am doing something.. I will help you brian from where I stand.
A Year's gone by & the impact of this song today is just as strong as it was the first time I heard it and saw the viedo. My Motto "Music Speak's of my Heart", this song definatley gets into my Heart & grabs it. It's a spiritual movement that takes over me and opens my eyes to the pain that surrounds. No words can be spoken only eyes full of tears rolling down my cheek. The thought of someone out there homeless aches me so deep. Thank you Brian, Dub & DO foundation! Sincerely, Coco
I love this because this a real life epidemic in America. We must 'Do Something" to end this crisis....thank you Brian for such a wonderful video and song......
When I heard this I thought I was in an elevator. How dare you compare yourself to people that are suffering WITHOUT a choice. Just another rich brat trying to get popular.
This reaches out to the cause you intended; at the time of 3:56, when the scale of your music intensifies, I begin to weep. I'm sorry. It's beautiful, Brian.
::this is the most beautiful, haunting tune...this video brought me to tears; thinkin' about the plight of these people, some thru no fault of their own. Brian is right. We need to DO SOMETHING. Even is its just a random act of kindness; give that man outside the store a dolla this time-dont think about what he's gonna do with it.... just give it. God will recognize...
Thanks for sharing. I, too spent a couple of weeks on the streets (Minneapolis), as I was working with homeless people and wanted to see and feel what they were experiencing. Of course, I knew then that it was not what I would eventually go home to, so made it less real.
We need to remember that we are all made in the image of God - and therefore inherently good. Many have lost sight of that knowledge and it is up to each of us to remind them of their natural worth. Thanks! demetrios1
This is passion at its full capacity...I'm forwarding this to everyone I possibly can to take a stand, and help end the disease of homelessness. The character who passes you by, as you place yourself in the shoes of a homeless soul, it could have been he. Then what?
Bean you know I love this video! Homelessness Is Real! It can happen in a blink of an eye to YOU or ME! Let's take A Stand and Do SOMETHING! I will share this video with my friends. I am rolling up my sleeves! DO Foundation ROCKS!! God Bless You! LL
Brian what a beautiful video. One thing is to do a video another thing is to place yourself among the lost and forgotten. I can't imagine what you experienced as a homeless person for two weeks. Who says there are no living angels among us. I believe you are one of them. Thank you for using your gift God gave you to open up our eyes and hearts. Thank you for being a voice for so many that have not been heard. God Bless Brian!!
All I can say is...... Well Done my brother and continue to expose the TRUTH !!!!!!!!!!!!!

but some are to lazy to go out and get a job.
