i feel your pain my friend...my moms best friend has died from cancer...and my bestfriend has just been diagnosed...it's unbelievably hard to deal with
I'd always been into OLP, and when this song came out, it just so happened that my grandmother had a stroke. She'd been experiencing dementia.. hardcore. It was difficult to visit with her. OLP put out some difficult songs, but there was always a note of inspiration. .."at the side of your bed"... even here.. there was a remark of inspiration. This song helped me get through it all.
Ain't it? Esspecially when it's commenting to an Our Lady Peace song; a band that condemns stupidy such as this. People will, no matter what, try to find an excuse to pick a fight. Nice going guys, nice going.
well, OLP isn't even close to my favorite band. Clearly, im a Pantera fan. but thanks for being so mature. Try putting more thought into what you type, you look like a fucking moron.
dellaseeg, it really appears that your an intelligent citizen of society with a legitimate view, thank you so much for your opinion..in other words, fuck off with your stupidity, dumbass

i wasnt aware of the fact that i have to spell 100% correctly in the youtube comment section...if i had the patience, i would. and since when are 2 year olds able to log onto a computer, type full sentences, and listen to heavy metal. looks like we have another moron who doesnt think before he types..

Well Well, looks the 2 year old can comprehend complete sentences. Kudos. Once again you made an improper paragraph. For someone who is so big on putting other people down, you sure are a utter tool. Maybe you should think for you type, you big dumb illiterate monkey.

Read the first sentence in your "paragraph"...and try to assure me that im the dumbass who can't type...i may not use perfect spelling or paragraph structure, but atleast my fucking sentences make sense. ps, im the guy that likes putting people down?..i simply pointed out that someone is a moron for looking for an OLP video, just to put out his useless opinion on how this band blows...wow lol

one more thing, you fucked up the first, and last sentence of your "paragraph" saying how i can't make a proper paragraph...hooked on phonix worked for you didn't it? and before you comment on my mispelling or grammar, once again, there is no need for perfect spelling/grammar in the youtube comment section, but im done with this stupitidy, and am no longer replying to peoples retarded comments.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Hurray! Now two people I don't know think im retarded. I guess I better admit how dumb I am. Thank you for contributing to this useless argument. A true testament to how people have too much time on their hands. Like me until I get a job.
my favorite song by them. I had sooo much trouble finding it because I didnt know the name. Sooo....I went through ALL of thier songs..looking for this one. All I had to go by was a couple lines from the song playing in my head. Through all that, I found alot more of their stuff that I like. OLP is really an amazing band. Every song is awesome. All of their music is good, beginning to end. To me, they didnt sell out like other bands. you can find true fans saying I like all of their music.
Its about a young girl the band met whos name was Mina Kim(mentioned at the first of the video) she had cancer , and this is the song raine wrote about her
The "thief" that lives inside of her head is a cancerous brain tumor. Raine wrote this song about a girl he met a few years ago. The audio clip at the end of the song is Mina Kim(the girl the song's about)singing in Sunday school.
I LOVE THIS SONG!!! one of my favourite songs great lyrics very touching....but can someone tell me what he says when he accually says something after i can be your.... (near the end)
Mina was a close family friend of ours, she was my sisters best friend up until her untimely death in late june of 1999. i had a chance to meet our lady peace and what they did for her was just unbelievable. god bless and rip mina. we miss you..
Still one of my favourite OLP songs, and the first one I ever heard. The band isn't really that famous here in Norway but I was lucky enough to have a friend from Canada who told me to give them a chance some years ago.
For the longest time I Just thought he was geting real deep about his exwife or something. But now I find out it was about terminal illness. Wow what a realy sad song.
I think if they got more radioplay, more of the people who don't really follow the band, but just so they can be like, "hey, yeah, i love this band!" would roll all over them.
I'm just cynical though, but I've loved this band since I was in eighth grade, so I'm probably really biased about it too.
xD Though it is nice to hear them on the radio sometimes. when I'm forced to listen to it.
It's an awesome video and a beautiful song. I've seen OLP twice and neither time they didn't perform it. I guess it has too much meaning to be performed for them.
The song and the video bring tears to my eyes. Thank you for putting it on youtube. This song was inspired by a girl of a terminal illness, makes me think of my father everytime. Props to OLP, they always know how to sum up a situation.
i'd be pretty pissed, just sitting there gettting soaked. i'd be like; "my underwear's getting soaked" then no one would do anything and then i'd be like "oh bitch slap" then they'll think again and stop the rain
