  • Great Vid!!!!!!

  • YOU DID AWSOME!!!

  • =)

  • This movie really speaks to me because I have been the kid who was always shunned, except by the very few close friends I had. And I've stood up for the others that couldn't/wouldn't stand up for themselves. I usually ended up second best in a fight because of it, but an amount of physical pain for someone's life? No choice in my book.

  • Good job with this video!

  • luv this video

  • god bless you friend this video was amazing I appreciate the sentiment behind the song as I've been in situations similar to the first boy although I ended up channeling my anger through my fists there were times I did consider the thought of suicide as a way to make everyone else happy with me gone. People should never be afraid to be someones friend because it is the small acts of kindness that save peoples lives thank you for bringing attention to this

  • The guy who brought the gun, when he got in the dance, he looked PISSED OFF and REALLY BORED!!! That part was acually the funniest....

  • the dancing was NOT bad!!!!!!!! it fit the song, if y'all re-did it, with better camera ppl, and kinda a better setting, omg it would be bad ass!!! and i love this song! lmfao wow, i accidently put snog first XD

  • i think you did a really really good job, but there is one thing in this video that really really annoys me and i'm not sure if it has caught anyone elses eye. The girl who is upset/depressed and is about to self harm, she is wearing black lipstick, and goth-like clothes, yet again stereotyping is used in media. It is not just girls with black lipstick on and dark clothes that get upset and feel this way. It would be more realistic to use an average looking girl who is feeling down.

  • @sexymotherpucker45: It would not be any more or less realistic. It would be a different story, but only different. Not better or worse. The goth girl's struggles are not of less importance because non-goth girls share or dominate the same struggles. The first boy and the next boy demonstrate that all internal battles appear in all people all ages all clothing types. I made an artistic decision to use an 'emo' character for the middle verse, not because I thought it would be more realistic, (c)

  • @ArisaHala

    okay thank you after re watching it i do understand where you are coming from :) xx

  • @sexymotherpucker45: (c) but because I thought it would be a better visual performance. Filmmaking is primarily an art of appearance, and so the VISUAL presentation is one of my greatest concerns, and quite frankly the story LOOKS better when told this way. Also, she is an average looking girl. That's the point. And the point is also not to assume anything based on looks. Because everyone is fighting battles even though we can't see them.

  • so powerful!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! wow.

  • Amazing! Bravo! Not to be a negative critic, but absolutely the ONLY thing wrong was some of the dancing. Maybe if you took more time, you could teach the 8-year-old some more complicated moves, and perfect this video. Overall, it was amazing. I only wish I was part of it :)

  • great Video I,m a hero and i,m going to jion the fight for whats right.

    I have a goal and it,s to save as many people as i can.

    who,s with me?

  • @MrJesusfreak85 I AM!!!!!!

  • This is an awesome video! You guys did fantastic! I think 15 people must of missed the like button! :) Great job!

  • Das Video ist echt toll geworden :)

    Great Job :)

  • I loved it. Good job everyone!!

  • the hand things reminds me strangely of hitler.....is that bad?

  • hey at least ya'll gave the dancing a try and ya'll picked a righteous song so good job!

  • Comment removed

  • I agree the dancing is kindda cheesy (reminds me of the macarena dance), but it's ok because the video is great and the message is awesome. And the singer, whoever she is, is really cute :) Is she single? haha.

    Maybe you could hire someone to help you do a cool hip hop dance to the song? Either way God bless you for helping people with your message. The song is totally awesome, I love it.

  • good job 

  • Very very good! Gets the point across wonderfully. My only mild criticism is that it seems a bit too... "jolly" considering the seriousness of the subject, although that may just be this rendition of the song. And from someone who can't dance to save his life, I thought your dancing was great =)

  • I love the part where the boy is praying. i feel a real connection to this song. awsum vid

  • i <3 this

  • nice that was a prety good version. :)

  • You guys did fantabulous! during the first verse and chorus I was going to give up on the video but it kept building and became this powerful thing. Though the dancing wasn't the best I've ever seen the adding of people made it powerful and the acting was spectacular.

  • @TomboyLuvsMyMusic I really appreciate your saying that, considering my hope really was to show the building- the connections- the ripple effect. And despite my weak attempt at chorus dancing filler, the actors were all pretty spectacular :) I'm glad it wasn't a total let down. God Bless!

  • @TomboyLuvsMyMusic Totally agreed!

  • The movie To Save A Life is all about the first verse of this song. If u r a christian and know someone who wants to kill themselves or just want to know about suicide, I recommend you watch it.

  • dude who cares if people say you dont dance good at least you were creative not like them you should make more vids like this

  • sehr gut gemacht :D

  • i liked it =) i like seeing people do videos to this song. its so cool =) its a very amazing song too. why is the rap part not in the video?

  • @kutlessRULES4life There are different versions of this song (this was the original before they made the pill version) and I consider rap to be overdone, and I personally dislike it as a musical genre. So I chose this version instead.

  • This song always makes me cry when the emo girl comes in,it reminds me SO much of me when I was like that and my hero,my best friend who saved me from it.I can never say thank you enough to show her how much she means to me,and always will.

  • This an amazing video. I'll admit that I cried.

  • i loved it(: great job guys!

  • At first I was like, a buch of teens are about to mess up this very powerful song with a weird video (No offence).. But you guys did RLY good. I Love this video! It rly opened my eyes.. Yall did great thanks for sharing!! (:

  • @TopangaPang Yeah I know that feeling. I've felt that way about lot of teen videos I've seen online, so it means a lot that you went into the video thinking that and came out thinking differently. I'm glad you enjoyed it and it spoke to you. God Bless!! <3

  • @ArisaHala God Bless you too!

  • ♥ LOVEEE!!! ♥

  • i thought this vid was amazing

    who cares if the dancing is bad its the vid that describes the story and i loved it

  • this is very good great job!

  • I need someone to be my hero....

  • ElmoBlaieBear: Yeah, it's always more difficult than it looks. It's AMAZING though, i like it. Good job darling =D

  • Awesome video my friend sent me the link to this vidoe, and she loves it so much.

  • wow great video :) wonderful job guys :D

  • Im not a big fan of the dancing but it was still great! Keep it up!

  • so let me get this stright the guy holds up a gun to the guy that was bulling or the other way around. or did he hold up the gun to his self in confused

  • @amandasakyi55 The guy holding up the gun is the guy who was bullied by the others and he's just holding it up to shout out the class in general because he's at the end of his rope- last straw- off the deep end, take your pick. Except none of that really happens cause the girl helps him.

  • this was a well made video very well thought of. and nicely fimed. i give it 5 stars cuz i understand how hard it can be to make something this well put together

  • good vid :)

  • even if the dancing isn't great the video in general is awesom I really like it!

  • nicely done

  • I think anyone can be a hero, you just have to know what's right.

  • You all did an amazing job on this video, it is my favorite out of all the "Hero" videos on you tube, can not believe you are getting any negative feedback the dancing was real. Than you so much for getting this message out there. You have amazing friends and parents. Keep up the great work and God Bless.

    Cindy

  • that was a really good video!!!

  • wonderful message, made me cry...

  • I like this a lot. Hopefully more people can see that it's the message behind the video and not about the dancing. I think yall did a great job.

  • Amazing i loe this song and the video!

  • Wow great job on the video!! If I could give you a ten I would give you a 1000

  • yea y does she?? she just looks down like "Okay, shoot me." ?.?

  • great Job!

  • Love how you guys did the rewind part that's great first time I seen it with any videos of this song

  • hahaha :D:D:D

  • This is awesomeXD i jut think u should have de t art about mikey D. but this was relly cool good job =)

  • awesome video..u all did an amazing job...god bless you guys..never give up!!

  • good job all of you guys ! this is a important thing and all of us should be everyday a hero in our little worl...just careing about people and be there when someone need! its not hard to do and there will came so much back to you ! if i listen to this song i remember all of the time columbine and in this second i think also about eric harris and dylan klebold. RIP all of the victims of life

  • wow :)))

  • love it 5/5

  • I love this Vid!!!! Heros rock bullys are scum!

  • aww this video is so sweet!!!!!!

  • The dancing was good

  • Every time I see it I must weep.

    Because it's true ... I wanted to kill me, but ... at the last minute someone came and rescued me ... With a little friendliness, comfort and hope.

    (sorry, if my englisch is poor. It´s only from school)

  • @BlackBellyAngel Your English is great! And I get where your coming from. I wanted to kill myself too at one time. But God didn't give me enough guts to take my life back then. But now a days I find myself waking up just wanting to die. Crazy huh?

  • @acountrysdream1 Don´t give up!

    See, for me it was terrible:

    My parents never had much time for me and i felt very lonely as my second and last grandma died. After i changed school i lost most of my freinds and noone wanted to be with me in the new class only because i´m from a little village, not from the big city. So I was lost there too. 2 years later i came back too my old school but my old freinds had already forgotten me. I didn´t know where to go and how to take live anymore.

  • But before i could kill me, there was a nice new classmate and he save me just in time. Some minutes later and I would have jumped.

    So my live go on and I feel better day by day.

    What I mean is: From the bottom it can only go up!

  • @BlackBellyAngel your right!

  • Good job, I've made some videos before so I know how hard it is.

  • Of all the ones I watched, I think this one is my favorite. ^_^ o.o But is it supposed to have those periods of noise?

  • odd... dance.......... >.> the chick that was second from the left in the back is pretty hot :P

  • Awsome vid!

  • i luv the vid u guys look great =] kool coreography

  • how come at :37 she just bows her head? i'm being serious. i don't get it.

  • It's a symbolic moment of realization. There is nothing she can do about it now. It's too late. But she's realizing there was a point that she could have done something- she could have helped- could have been a hero.

    Obviously that is what happens, because she thought about how bad it could go. And then he becomes the hero for the next girl and so on and so forth.

  • oh! i get it now! thnx!

  • @iWILL4evaLUVhim she is looking down cause she feels guilty, i think

  • so ArisaHala i think that the dancing is wonderful even with the ride range of ages you did a great job on the video keep up the good work. . .

  • oooppsss i meant wide

  • so this video is the best one i have seen it is so good. . . and gets the message out. . . i once thought about killing myself my friends didn't understand they just said whatever you aren't gonna kill yourself the just didn't know but now i let god lead my way in my life and me following i have changed alot. . .

  • i'm a lot like all 3 people, especially the girl. this is a wonderful song and a really good video, the best i've seen to the song. and the dancing is good. wonderful job!!

  • I am almost like the 2nd verse...nice job of acting it out... and your danceing is fine. good job

  • whats wrong with the danceing? Great job!!!

  • I love this video! And the Dancing IS FINE!!! I really like this.

  • i luv the way u made the first verse! me and my sister have been wanting to do a video to this but we need a video camera first. i got some nice tips from watching yours so thanks for making one and putting it up!

  • -SomeOne Is My Hero :) iiLY Brenden Cole :] ForEver :) iiTryed Suicide,, Cut Myself,, Did Alot Of Stupid Things,, To MySelf,, But That Certain Boy Changed That For Me :] But I Recently Lost A Loved One :( Clifford Wayne Granbois,, He HimSelf Commited Suicide,, :( He Had 3 Children,, But We Think Of It Not As Suicide,, We Think Of It As He Was Called Home Earlier Than Others :( RiP Clifford Wayne, Sami Lee, Tre Bob, Perthina Rose, Jim Granbois, Edward, And Charlie Rene'.

  • Don't let anyway put you down. I love this song and video both of which are awesme and show a message that my gerneration needs to learn.

  • by the way..... i think the dancing is pretty good :)

  • i adore this one and the dancing was cute,

    me and my friends started one then we didnt have time to finish and our dancing was a bit weird as seen as it was made by 10, and 11 year olds lol

    Mint vid, subbed faved, 5/5

    ~ Chloe & friends ~ :)

  • you know i used to think suicide was the answer too and cutting made the pain go away but only temporarily you have to make the right friends and never stop loving even when people hurt you keep praying and God WILL put a hero in your life i promise and i know from experience

  • i cut. there aren't any heros in my life. everyone i think is my friend stabs me in the back. i think suicide is the answer.

  • Question: who are you planning on loving forever? Because suicide is a sure way to loose said love. And I know someone who will love YOU forever. Giving up is not the answer. Finding a hero is not the answer: BECOMING THE HERO FOR SOMEONE ELSE: THAT IS THE ANSWER.

    Be the change you want to see in the world, iWILL4evaLUVhim.

    I will be praying for you. God Bless.

    -Arisa Hala

  • no1 now.... alredy lost his luv..... WHO will luv me foreva??????? idk how to be sum1 elses hero.....  thnx for the prayers! :)

  • GOD

    He has made you- loved you before you knew yourself- and will ALWAYS love you.

    The first step to being someone else's hero is not looking for someone to help you: it is simply to help someone else. The smallest thing can make all the difference. The more you think about others the less you will need to worry about yourself.

    Don't loose hope.

    You never know who might be watching you struggle and looking for hope themself. Your endurance can make all the difference.

    -Arisa

  • ummmm.... i know there is a little girl at my school who absolutley adores me..... she doesnt know how weak i am tho.... :(

  • So be a hero for her.

    Be strong for her.

  • ok.

    i will.

    try....

  • hey there iWILL4evaLUVhim. . . there is a hero out there for you maybe god just doesn't want to put him to you yet maybe that little girl at your school who absolutley adores you is the hero in your life you just have to be a hero in her life GOD has faith in you and so do i and so does ArisaHala dont give up i am praying for you. . .

  • hmm.. never thought of it that way....

  • @ArisaHala

    Those are really wise inspiring words. . .

  • amazing !

    i love this video. (:

  • Very positive and insightful video keep up the good work. Compassion and love of God made this country great not the auto industry.

  • i have been thinking about suicide again, i tried and failed only to have a seizure...but stuff like this kinda helps cause its shows me that there are people out there that can help, i just need them personally, surrounded by girls like that guy in the video looks about right...haha

  • Don't end your life it will be over in 70 or so years anyway. God has plans for you

    seek him and don't miss anything. Take full advantage of everyday each is a gift and an opportunity.

  • Hey - great work! Love Superchic(k), LOVE this song, and you guys did a really nice job giving it a video. Boo urns to people picking on the dancing. It's shot well, edited nicely, and you all have really great performances. Very nicely done!

  • i loved this.. my friend got me started on listening to superchick and this was my favorite.. u interperated this very well.. it shows that everything and everyone r connected and we should learn to help each other rather than tearing eachother down.

  • This is one of the most insightful comments I've ever gotten. Everything is connected- in ways you sometimes don't even know about! I'm glad you enjoyed it! :)

  • in honesty, for not being a professionally made video, this is really good, the only way i can think itd have been better is if the dancers had been smiling the whole time.

  • i like to give my honest opinion on videos, i really liked how you guys showed what the song was portraying, and we could tell that you were listening to the same song lol you did good with the video, but the dancing i dont understand what that was for

  • the dancing was pretty good, yes. it's hard to get thing synchronized like that though. GOOD JOB!!!!!!! :)

  • This really touched my heart! I was crying by the end of the first verse! The dancing was amazing! You only had and hour to learn it?! Wow! I'm really impressed! Keep up you great work!

  • alsome vid and i liked the danceing and bye one person changing a lfe makes a big difrence =D good job

  • i like the use of the trench coat. Completes the Massacre theme

  • Hey I am a dancer and you guys did great for learning the dance in like an hour. It takes me a weeek to get everything perfect and we did this dance for class and it was hard to learn ouir basic moves. Ignor non dancers who just look for perfection.

  • the dancing was a little off, but very good purpose

  • ur video is inspirational 2 those like me think about suicide every day. thx 4 actully caring even if the dancing is bad its about the message and not the dance moves.

  • You're right. This shows that by helpping one person, you affect what happens to many others, we are all connected. Don't let anyone bring you down, don't let them pull your past into the present, and don't let your past controll you. "They say that our past makes our future, but I say let's make our own picture." Stand up for you and always keep faith. You're more powerfull then any thoughts that enter your mind. You have the strength to make it through, don't let anything tell you different

  • awesome video man

    Simply amazing

    keep on rocking!

  • I hope that was a water gun!

  • wow if i could do that i would be amazed at myself. that was amazing and i almost cried. i really like you video but i think you should have cut out the voice and noise in the beginning. but otherwise i loved it! <3

    good job!

  • this is an awesome video!!....those people that disrespect it are just jelous(: we are doin a skit to this song for our churches sermon.....everybody remember this song when ur talking to a friend...i saved one of my friends life, now its ur turn to help. (:

  • jjealous has nothing to do with any of this. dont bring the world jealous. they are just ignorant

  • don't ever let the comments that people give you on the dances get you down.

    i think you did an amazing job and you have touched people whether they admit it or not.

    the video is amazing.

  • uh... funee dacin (no offence) cute vid tho

  • That is awsome. The hard work put into it was awsome.

  • Probably the most hilarious video I have ever watched.

  • rofl

  • you rock so cool

  • i miss u guys so much!!!!! im so glad i finally found this on youtube cause it couldnt figure out how to comment it on facebook this is an AWESOME video it really touched since ive had issues in the past amongst other things anyways i had actually been thinking about making a video for this song for a long time and i was wondering if u could give me some pointers

  • I love the video its fantastic

    this is my apsolute favorite song by superchick

  • u did great making this it makes alot of pplz think 2 times about helping some1 and at the end most make the right choice

  • I'd like to show a video like this at a school I work at. It's got a high african-american population, and I don't think there is enough of them represented in this video for the kids to buy into it. Does anyone know if there is a video like this with black kids playing a role as the "hero?" Thanks!

  • Just a comment from one of the kids in the vid- I'm sorry there weren't enough black kids in here. There is a low ratio of black kids where we live but this video was just a bunch of youth/friends getting together under the direction of my friend and doing a video for fun. It's hard to find clean vids these days so we figure we can make more. Anyways. Have a WONDERFUL day. :) -Lain (Elena)

  • This video was amazing. I was crying by the end

  • This is good and for a home-made video from what you said 1 hour of learning, the dancing is really good. Get inspired again!

  • oh ok

  • this is kind of a suiped way to show a video like this one if u need better ideas go to Zhall's channel and see thier video for hero

  • Hmmm, well I checked out Zhall's channel, and after weeding through the thousands of Hannah Montana vids I did find and watch the Hero one.

    And everyone is entitled to their opinion.

  • i think this vid is awesome! I'm kinda sick of listening of hearing the red pill mix,so yay!

  • there is no shortcomings of yours the video is awesome dont change a thing if someone doesnt like it they dont have to watch it though it does present a good message

  • u made this?! holy shit! its amazing!! the dancing is great. it made me feel like. they kids that are new to the group are just learning it and that some of them are new ppl in there. and its like theyre following ur lead. i love it its awomse

  • lol, that's exactly what I thought about the dancing too! :)

  • I explain where this video? Sorry but the comments I wrote earlier in a hurry! . I hope my reply!

  • wow u did amasing yea yea i can't spell give me a break

  • i love this song and u guys did an amazing job on the video!

  • I think u shud do more music vids!! Coz this was so gud!

  • I think it's REALLY GUD!! U'v done it JUSTICE!! AWESUM vid!!

  • lol, This was really fun to work on. No matter what the end result is, working on something with friends is always fun and rewarding. And this turned out to be really good in the end too. (EXTRA BONUS) :)

  • Good job on the video guys... I liked the message that you are sending out. Keep up the great work!!!

  • I love this song!

  • making fun of the dancing not cool I guess u didn't listen to the song

  • Nice

  • this is cool, nice song and nice dancing, not bad.......well DIE! everyone who says the dancing is bad.......

  • Nice job.

    For the people that say it sucks, fuck off.

  • aboustley amazing well done guys do another one cause u rock !!!

  • this was great!

    <3

  • Awesome video! If I tried to get my friends to actually work together and make a video as good as this, they'd end up strangling each other @.@ lol. You really "captured the song" Hahaha. Great job!

  • The video in it self was very cool.

    As for the dancing, the 8 year old boy was the best one there!

  • omg this song is awsome and i am just trying to keep my friends alive

  • thisis frigging awesome..i wanna do this...i think im guna. tghanks for tghe idea!

  • Very welcome! Good luck!

  • Thanks making this, it was definately the best video I've seen for this song.

    Great job.

  • If only people and schools would just take songs like this seriously.....I was one of the kids in school that was a punching bag for everyone else, and NO ONE should ever have to go through stupid stuff like what happens in schools. Not everyone is strong enough to make it alone in life, that's where our Hero's come from, those who take time to help out. Thank you to all the Hero's out there.

  • why was he going to shoot her @ the begining????
