Hey #SPFamily! As you may have heard, Simple Plan are putting together a very special video for “This Song Saved My Life”, a song that you guys helped write! Just last weekend, the band gathered a bunch of awesome live footage, but need your photos and videos to make it complete. There’s two ways that you can get involved, no matter where in the world you live!

1) Film a video of you and/or your friends singing along to your favourite verse or the chorus “This Song Saved My Life” in front of an iconic backdrop or hometown landmark (London’s Big Ben? Singapore’s Merlion? Corcovado Mountain in Brazil?). You can also shoot your video from your rooms or a personal place that is special to you.

2) Take a photo of yourself with your favourite lyrics from “This Song Saved My Life” written in an expressive manner (you can totally get creative here!)

The important info:
You must record a video statement at the beginning of your submission stating your name and age, and allow the producers of the video for “This Song Saved My Life” permission to use your images in the video compilation.

Films must be formatted in .mov or .mp4. HD quality (1920x1080 px) is preferred and your video MUST NOT be more than 1 minute long (100 mb limit).

Using WeTransfer, send your video or photo to [email protected], be sure to include your contact info (name, age, email address, Twitter handle and phone number) in the message box.

All submissions must be received by December 21, 2012, so get crackin’ and you could see yourself in the next Simple Plan video!

I'm glad to see they are incorporating their fans into this music video, since it was written for them. It should be interesting to see how it turns out in the end.
