This is the second part of Our Lady Peace's Holiday Greeting for 1998. This is a recital of the poem from which Our Lady Peace got their name. The poem is "Our Lady Peace" by Mark Van Doren. The poem is about World War II, but the band members chose it because they felt it described a place where they were all at in life.
Does the man in the video look familiar? He should, as he is on the cover of many Our Lady Peace albums. The man is named Saul Fox, and the band became good friends with him after he came in to do the shots for the cover of "Naveed." He would later go on to be on the cover of "Clumsy," "Happiness... Is Not a Fish That You Can Catch," "Spiritual Machines," "A Decade," and the vinyl release of "The Needle and the Damage Done" and the single cover for "The Birdman." He was also in the videos for "The Birdman" and "In Repair."
@thedrummerdude777 Did he pass away? I'm a huge olp fan and have been since I was like 8 (I'm 21 now, I was around for clumsy and spiritual machines). In all interviews I've read its said that no one kept in touch and that he was sick and may have passed.

Raine says its an engineer who worked with them down in L.A. His name is Dusty and he says that it was a perfect coincidence that after the afterbrushing was done on his face after the photo shoot because the band wanted to go back to their original raw sound and stuff.
