  • awesome! I just noticed Daniel Victor from Never ending white lights was his drummer

  • <3

  • I raise huskies.....every generation, a pup is named RAINE for Raine Maida. My second pup was named after Raine Maida (olp 2003) but no one understood it....(4th. gen and counting)

    My resident huskies are now London, Kai and Tenka....

    Cheers and never stop listening to Our Lady Peace.

  • Raine Maida is one of the best artists in the world. Like if he should be more popular than that stupid Justin Gayber. I LOVE YOU RAINE!!!

  • @constructionarea hahahaha

  • Anybody else enjoying the man below me mental breakdown?

  • I do appreciate that some of the cops out there showed him some respect, I just wish more people knew about this album!

  • Nice to see some positive energy in a world full of negativity.

  • This song gives me chills every time.

  • R.I.P Scotty, Will always love you and you will always be in my prayers...

    Briel's here and she's amazing. I miss you so much brother. One Day

  • pretty sure the lyrics in the description are wrong... should be "Near-life experience" not "Mere life experience"

  • i always thought he was an amazing talent, this song took it to a whole new level...

  • amazing!!! just amazing! what a great tune!!!

  • Best song ever written and composed...EVER.

  • Gotta love all the harassment from the pigs. Apparently there is no crime in Toronto anymore so they pick on people trying to do good!

  • This song. So beautiful, I love it. Brings back memories :3

  • wow I really think around the 2 minute mark its Daniel Victor playing the small drum kit with Raine on the corner. Thats awesome! Daniel and Rayne are 2 of canada's greatest

  • i feel like crying. He's too awesome I can't handle it.

  • 35 people have their head up their ass

  • I live in Mississauga which is like 10 mins away from Toronto so I ever knew he was gonna do this I would go to Toronto and drive around everywhere and when I saw him I would give him 100 dollars cause this song is amazing.

  • Its official. Raine is my Hero

  • raine maida is a fucking badass

  • He needs to grow back the beard, it was a good look for him.

    Aside from that this was a really pure and inspiring song, man I would of gave Raine a big fat hundred if I lived in Toronto

  • @sndd0138 Theres always some stupid people for every good song that dislike it. I guess thats just the way it works.

  • This is the best song ever written. No doubt about that.

  • at 2:18 a litter kid put in money :D

  • Shouldnt we help our own country first? I mean its great what hes doing but we should help our own people......

  • @revengegetthem You are kidding. The people he is helping here have almost nothing. People in our country can't even begin to imagine the level of poverty these people live in.

  • @revengegetthem faggot

    nuff said

  • @revengegetthem LAWL.

  • GOD I LOVE YOU RAINE!..GOD BLESS YOUR HEART!

  • bomb song

  • 1 person can bring out such good energy.

  • cool video

  • wow, this is touching...I loved our lady peace!

  • 31 people who press unlike are just morrons -.- every body need to like this.

  • Yeah for Sure he does have enough to do that ..he have enough to do that like 600000 times if he want !! Its for the cause know and helping make people aware od the situation !! i agree with you

  • waz the cop trying to give him a ticket for doing charity? :-(

  • Really great song

  • awesome song, he and the rst of olp are so underrated

  • everytimr i hear this song it reminds me of my sister dianna,, i laughted at it at first but i like it now :) and it was worth a good cause like the song wavin flag by k naan

  • incredible. give to war child.

  • yeeahh, this video is in toronttooo :)

  • that guy can pull off facial hair... haha (=

  • chickenshit

  • hes got a freaking sick ass voice. amazing song.

  • I wonder what his upcoming solo album will be like? I heard it will be more Rock-ish.

  • the drummer is daniel victor from neverending white lightss

  • give to War child...that's the best thing you can do.

  • great song

  • At 1:39 the guy the shook Raines hand is Ben Kowalewicz, the lead singer of Billy Talent.

  • haha ty i knew i saw him somewhere

  • I'm in love with this.

  • Let it Raine on Humanity.

  • ordinary song

  • @stalingrad66 With an ordinary name/but ordinary's just not good enough today...

    FTR, I love this song. I just couldn't resist quoting OLP

  • stupid comment chao

  • I'm sure he does have enough to do that...and what's to say he didn't? However, what about the nobility in getting an entire community involved? About making the cause known and helping make people aware of the situation he's supporting? It's more than money, it's a cause and the effort expended in promoting that cause...

  • @Resirix

    nicely put.

  • @Resirix 9999999 thumbs up to your comment

  • raine you are big!!

  • that's what she said, hehe

  • @crazybj777 LOL

  • Raine is amazing, olp is incredibale! wow

  • not olp though

  • i love this.

    raine is amazing♥

  • Yeah, GO T-DOT!  lol

    Love this song, it's so ill

  • Great Song

  • Beautiful Soul!

  • It's a great video... but why does raine look like a traveling hobo? nah

  • because he would rather 30,000 dollars to build a school in the congo than spend 30,000 dollars to have a house, a car, and look cool.

  • thats just a guess tho, maybe he wants to look like a hobo because som epeople think its cool. ;)

  • Anyone know where you can watch the full documentary?

  • His solo stuff is surprisingly good, I like it better than some recent OLP albums.

  • Your father's gone a-hunting

    In the quicksand and the clay

    And a woman cannot follow him

    Although she knows the way

  • best vid, best song, best singer EVER!

    raine is such a great human being, he's awesome

  • I heard this song on 102.1 the edge on national aids day and I just fell in love with it! Very inspirational..easy listening :)

  • this song is gunna be my grad blurb in the yearbook.

  • Comment removed

  • This is an amazing man and an amazing song!

  • raine is my hero and i agree with jaydanielquinn this shows so much more commitment for the cause, because while he could have just wrote them a check he said no ill go out and raise awarness for your cause by playing several free shows in your honour and at the same time raise the money

    to me a rich guy just writing a check is like he just said "here now fuck off and leave me alone" i think it means more to donate time and talent than just money

  • you know, you're right. I agree, 10 000 %.

  • yup, everyones time is worth something, and his especially.

  • so what do they call someone who donates their time and talent towards raising money for charity? a monster?

  • Comment removed

  • shut up assfuck. thats what a lazy rich prick does, not someone who really cares

  • and how do u knw he didnt?

  • just writing a check doesn't show anything. that's like saying, here's $30 000, now shut up.

    spending a day busking on the streets of toronto is much more work and shows how much dedication he has towards building a school.

  • i live in barrie y could he go there as welllll :P

  • haha agreed

  • love it

  • I love Raine's solo music. Our Lady Peace's 90's music is definately the best they have to offer, but for some reason I don't mind Raine's new style as much in his solo work. Damn good work.

  • man thats awsome! i would definatly follow him around the city! :)

  • lawl solo raine = beard OLP raine = no beard. ever! wtf?

  • man if I passed him I would so know

  • someone out there help me I'm totally stuck in a Raine trance

  • rain made a pool in the backyard where the kids play

    they're only 10 but actin harrrd all day cause the apple don't fall far from the tree

  • Raine is the best song writer ever!!! everytime i listen to any of his songs or olp it gives me chills! WOOOOOOO

  • this is the shit.

  • Frig I wish I knew about this, I would've been there.

  • nice one...good tune and good mission.

  • i chill where this video was made lol

  • good for you man. good song too

  • I think it's awesome how Raine almost looks like a hobo in this. With his unshaved beard, and his clothing it makes him blend right in. I wonder how many people passed by without dropping a penny in, not realizing it was Raine Maida! If it weren't a handful of people crowding around him I bet not that many people would have realized it was him!

    well that, and his sign saying I'm Raine Maida aha, but some people don't even know his name so...

  • Amazing work, I am impressed, I hope you got what you were after.

  • This song is amazing

  • At 2:07, is that the singer from illScarlett?

  • our lady peace

  • jason mraz maybe?

  • he is the most perfect man ever.

  • agreed, but a good song. if he keeps cranking out stuff like this he can love that abyss all he likes and still be good in my books.

  • right on the money ifecht. super good music.

  • Fuck you people for slaggin Rusty...I agree!

  • wow, since when is it a bad thing to help people in the world who need help. grow up!

  • The drummer at 1:56 ... Is that Daniel Victor?

  • im actually pretty sure it is... it looks alot like him

  • Comment removed

  • Way to completely miss the point. Thumbs down.

  • and at 3:21 :) love it

  • my nieces are in the video at 3:00 :)

  • "near life experience"  nice fight Club Quote

  • Eghhh, I'm so jealous of everyone who saw him and got to meet him that day. I live close to Toronto, I so wish I saw him :(

    I'm hoping to go to the Ottawa Cisco Bluesfest to see OLP.

  • Did he succeed?

  • yes

  • It says he did at 3:30 . :)

  • "if i knew now what i knew then, id back up and do it all again" that line touches me, simply beautiful.

  • he looks 40 with that beard but in All You Did Was Save My LIfe's vid he looks 25.

  • I'd guess he didn't want too much street recognition... I'd guess more people know OLP far before they know Raine's name.

    I'd guess, too, that he might have wanted to see how people would react to the purpose of it, and not him.

  • oh. my. god.

    No. Not again.

    I ALWAYS miss him. and I live in freaking Toronto.

    Bet you anything I was in Montreal when this happened.

  • yeah, totally! I literally work a block away from Queen and Spadina.. when was this filmed? sucks that I missed it..

  • Wikipedia says he sings/sung as a countertenor. I can't find any video of him singing in countertenor though... Anyone can help? :)

  • He used to sing in a very high pitched falsetto back in OLP's first few albums.

  • Is that John Mayer at 2:08? Looks a lot like him...

  • no...not even close

  • by the way, i loveee the beard!

    oh and if you look closely, you'll see the lead singer from illScarlett on guitar and Daniel from Neverending Whitelights on drums

  • he looks so much older then with OLP

  • The song and artists are both awesome

  • i usually dont like these kind of songs i like the original olp songs but for me this is an exception. great song and i love listening to it

  • Absolutely love this song!

    It's definitely my favorite tune right now.

    Raine is amazing...

    love him OLP and love the solo career!

    In both the lyrics are always amazing....

    can't wait to get this cd :D

  • haha the hobos were probably lik "raines taken all our cash today"

  • <3

    Sums it all up :)

  • how much money did you end up raising?

  • $30,000

  • Measured our lives in coffee spoons... cute, Raine. <3 T. S. Eliot.

  • i love this song! great job raine!
