Our Lady Peace - Naveed

[stephenmichano7]

For the show in Thunder Bay on April 12th, I just bought a ticket for $50. Great price for a great band that's been around for 20 years. I wish them another 20 years. Can't wait to see them, :-)

Have been and always will be a fan of Our Lady Peace, or "As If" as they were known as when first made.

[4boyzindabasement]

"Shut up Navi, Shut up Navi" Is what i thought it said when I first listened to it lol

[xMikey21]

@4boyzindabasement sounds nothing like that

[OKzs]

@xMikey21

LOL LOL LOL

[xMikey21]

@OKzs ?

[QCDeViLMaN666QC]

@4boyzindabasement Navi from OOT lol ?

[sanctuaryforthelost]

I can't believe this song is only three years younger than me, but i can still remember hearing it throughout my youth. I can't believe the music that I love is being considered classic now.

[Edifice06]

Its a damn shame this classic OLP song has less than 100, 000 views. =/

[scoop5309]

I have'nt seen them live, but man I'd love to!

[SxeScotty]

@scoop5309 I seen them on there Gravity tour. Best concert I ever went to. Well it's tied with Rage Against the Machine.

[aburg10s]

Naveed is about a brother of a Muslim friend Raine had in school. His brother committed suicide and it is about his struggle to carry on in the world and not follow the same path. "It's hard when you reach for the floor" is a reference to the Muslim prayer where we put our face on the ground. I'm a Canadian convert to Islam and I never understood the full meaning of the song until now. Naveed is also written in Arabic or Farsi on Raine's guitar in this video.

[iWANNABEGRIZZ]

79 thousand, wtf is this? america?!?

its short a few 0's at the end!

[yzmazzu]

Thumbs up for the guy wearing the Toronto Maple Leafs hat at 0:56 Leafs Nation!!!

[Bluntza1]

@yzmazzu good eye 4 that 1

[slutwhisperer]

If Canadian Rock includes Nickleback it does NOT rock : ) Love for OLP though

[TheStrangeOne14]

Saw these guys open for 'Page-Plant' in '95. Chicago. Saw both dates. The singer blew his voice out on the last song, the second date. Good shows!

[ledballone]

new album 2012

[bonsai195]

littlep29 alot more then that has come from canada ,so many good bands canada has produced

[Sharks1012]

littlep29 you forgot tim hortens

[KingVego]

94' was good year!

[Touchme1G]

my name is naveed....

[littlep29]

only two good thing came from Canada. Ice Hockey and OLP :D

[pcmacro]

@littlep29

uh..no. POUTINE!

[kadel300]

73,000 views??? Jeez, people just don't know what good music is anymore.. :(

[BrandonDyckMusic]

wait, its not "I cant naveed anymore"?.... and my whole world shattered!

[halcyon0830]

Naveed is taken from the Persian name for the bearer of good news.

Naveed was also Raine's best friend. Naveed was Iranian and one day he told Raine the background (of the name) was a person referred to as a bearer of good news. 'Naveed' talked about someone scared to die, but at the same time interested in it. Naveed unexpectedly died from a gunshot wound. Raine took the concept of Naveed & placed it in the dark optimism of music. Naveed traveled the distance between mysticism & bitter reality

[thatsfornoobs]

that drummers a bad ass. fucking love being canadian. <3

[kadel300]

@thatsfornoobs Jeremy Taggart.. IMO, one of the best rock drummers EVER!

[poppabonar]

good argument by faced12, how is BitchBeTrollingHard gonna come back

[bwianeh]

drumming is sooo sweet

[Davide888]

@bwianeh Yes!

[BitchBeTrollinHard]

MUSIC

[notredale123]

hmmm i wonder if this video inspired "Conky" from the trailer park boys....

[SmoothOperator29]

Lady Gaga teaches little girls to dress like whores and Justin Beiber who pushes a button on a keyboard and calls it music....both have something in common.....they both use thier image to sell thier crappy music.....a bunch of bubblegummers and bobbers!

[BitchBeTrollinHard]

@SmoothOperator29 some of lady gagas tunes are actually pretty good musically

[faced12]

@BitchBeTrollinHard she has talent, and a really great voice, but its overshadowed by the image she tries to convey, and thats why many people dont like her. Music should be about music, not the show... so much of the music today is mindless, and its sad to see someone like her waste her talent, but thats just my opinion

[BitchBeTrollinHard]

@faced12 accually its called the entertainment business for a reason... look at muse and kiss, both awesome live shows, kiss are terrible musicians but they put on a show, muse is unbelievably good musicians and they put on an awesome show. if music was just about the music, there would be no music videos, no concerts, no t-shirts

[faced12]

@BitchBeTrollinHard i know what your saying, i just think music should be about the music.. there would still be music videos, concerts, and t-shirts, just look at U2, they dont worry about dressing up in all sorts of costumes yet they still sell out stadiums

[KestrelKid1]

Canada bitches .... bringing the best fucking music in N.A

[chaos3eleven]

funny...I saw OLP in concert. Stood next to a girl who sung every song word for word. They closed with Naveed and she just stood there not singing a word.....BIZARRE!!!

[mukmewx]

my favorite OLP song

[faced12]

@halcyon0830 its amazing what wikipedia can tell us

[nbcviper]

The only song I can think of that didn't annoy me.

[thelegithack]

What the fuck is with the doll??!!??!

[austinfrazer]

I like the song, but this video is 50 seconds or so short! Why won't anyone post the full version?

[TheNeshabur]

@austinfrazer that is the full version.

[austinfrazer]

@TheNeshabur

Do you have the Naveed CD? The song is 5:43. How can a less than 5 minute video be the full version? I used to have the full version, I'll see if I can find it again.

[faced12]

@austinfrazer in the cd version the ending goes on much longer

[tiggnduff]

love the new stuff but everything OLP never gets old

[slowwburn]

@thewaffle - bang on man. Both OLP and I Mother Earth had killer potential and great intro albums. Edwin's head got too big and Raine became too concered with saving the world's poor. Ahhh.....wish bands would just continue what made them good initially - plug it in, turn it up, rock hard. Screw 'evolving'....just rock man. Naveed - in my top 5 albums.....

[jaso19]

ROFL ROFL AT THE PUPPET

[StephenAmundson]

Its like jane's addiction and the toadies plus a whole lotta original sound all together

[AaronR44]

@StephenAmundson

and a better voice lol....

[algoAzrael]

OLP FTW

[MrMrof]

great song



[Fezman321]

Our Lady Peace is the best band in the world

[StephenAmundson]

@Fezman321 was

[zereoue]

This is a classic fucking song. The best one on Naveed. By the way, comparing OLP to Justin beiber has got to get you arrested in some countries.

[Jesusplant]

@zereoue Why do people even mention that over marketed name in the presence of music?¿? companies prob spent a couple million so that the name would spread like an infection and you're just helping spread the cancer.

[EugeneWanderer]

@zereoue it should get them beaten with a damn Justin Bieber memoire. lol

[Slacktoo]

I'd say these Canadians are A BIT better than Justin Bieber, huh?

[tuesdaybooker]

this cant be nearing 20 years!!!~ where did our youth go???

[ngi1928]

@tuesdaybooker: unfortunately it is, looking at taggart who was practically a kid.

[Ranour]

@tuesdaybooker Yep just think....these songs are "Classics" now.

[BCShimDaddy]

@ Deerhuntermike125 I never say any of those things.stop thinking you know better than other people. Bon Jovi is not good.

[kev42o97]

This song sucks, I like the meaning though. Just my opinion. My favorite three songs from OLP is 1. Anybody home 2. Superman's dead 3. Theif/Not enough

[soulflower666]

Canadian Rock Rocks!

[codeninja1]

@soulflower666 Rick the Temp back then! good eye though man

[codeninja1]

@soulflower666 Rick the Temp back then! good eye though man...er woman...soulflower and you watch e.t. so gotta be a girl...

[relaxguydw]

Look at the guy with the long hair and white sweater at 0:46. IT'S RICK CAMPANELLI FROM E.T. CANADA!!

[KatanaKitty]

@relaxguydw yeah this was back when he had first started as a VJ for MuchMusic...he was so awesome back then. Best VJ ever in the 90's <3

[erick103]

@relaxguydw HOLY SHIT!

As much as I hated on Rick the temp when he was on much, looking back, he was actually an awesome VJ, he knew his shit!

[Zac6230]

@erick103 Rich the temp used to give solid BJ's backstage at Much, it was awesome! much better than that nigger, Master T. That asshole would NEVER Swallow!

[Deerhuntermike125]

You say Lady Gaga, I say Guns n's Roses.

You say Hannah Montana, I say AC/DC.

You say Owl City, I say Bon jovi.

You say Jonas Brothers, I say Pink Floyd.

You say Justin Bieber, I say Queen.

You say Taylor Swift, I say The Who.

95% of teens these days listen to the same crappy pop over and over again. If you're one of the 5% who still listens to real music, then copy and paste it to at least five videos. Don't let the spirit of rock and roll die

[TheWaffle35]

Such an underrated band

[OKzs]

@TheWaffle35

This is one of the best songs ever, but underrated? I don't know, Rain (Sp?) was too cocky, and self absorbed and it turns people off, hence the decline in music quality and interest in the band. Edwin did the same thing to I Mother Earth and they had some great songs too, Used to Be Alright, Another Sunday, Rapsberry...

I miss these days - Canadian Rock ::sighs::

[jeffdorazio]

lol! yeah...the doll is freaky.

OLP rocks...as usual...gotta get to a show soon, haven't heard of anything nearby lately tho.

[ivorine1981]

OMG the doll has always scared me!!! Nightmares for me tonight :(

Ughh loves this song!!!

[interstellarwonder]

thank U OLP for enriching my life with your cool music

[LochlynD]

god he looks like jared leto

[DVKNIGHT000]

2 people voted this video down and will soon appear in the deaths section of our local newspaper because of a certain dummy o_O

[StevieTeeVee92]

1:12; Raine Maida is gonna eat ME!!!!!!

[Braindrain3]

I don't like rock music but when i first saw this video back in the day it got me listening to our lady peace ever since and their pretty much the only rock group that i'll listen to. you can see the passion and sincerity in their music.

peace out

[silhuetto]

@Braindrain3 Totally agreed!

[ColorsBright]

The one person who gave this a THUMBS DOWN is a total Assclown Tool Fartknocker!

[XxKianaxBreakDownxX]

What Does This Video Mean ? Are The Kid`s Trapped In The Car With That Doll ? :I 

[judedAdudE77]

love this song, hell i love almost anything not from todays artists, but van anyone explain the song to me

[holyhellbombsfromshi]

@judedAdudE77 you should probably google but I used to be really into OLP, from what I remember it was about a man (possibly even raine) letting his brother commit suicide, or his brother wanting to commit suicide.

[ChampionRider62]

I love you Raine, but mustard yellow is NOT your color.

[nasanasa3]

@ChampionRider62 Ah, it was a different time~

[LexaBree]

Yeah I just literally had a heart attack when I saw that doll :l

[glibglabgloob]

It wasn't just 90's music that was so amazing but the music videos are FAR superior and more creative than any of the crap they come up with today.
