Nickelback – “If Everyone Cared”.
Nickelback’s performance of “If everyone cared” was shown to me at a conference several months ago and I don’t think there was a dry eye in the house. “If Everyone Cared” was released in the United Kingdom on 27 November 2006 and then in the United States on the 28th November 2006.
Nickelback announced a charity initiative that has the band, along with Roadrunner Records, WEA Corp. and Warner Chappell donating 100% of the proceeds from the digital sales of the single and video for “If Everyone Cared” to charity. Since the single’s release, the band has raised $500,000 for Amnesty International and International Children’s Awareness Canada. This clearly ties into the theme of the song and video clip which displays the caring nature of amazing people throughout history. The song focuses on the fantastic work done by Bob Geldof – with the Live Aid Concert in 1985, Betty Williams – and her peace march in 1976, Peter Benenson – whose actions lead to the development of Amnesty International and Nelson Mandela who ended the apartheid regime and liberated millions of South African people. All of these individuals have truly changed the lives of millions of people throughout the world.
The video clip of the song ends with the quote by Margaret Mead which truly touched my heart.
“Never Doubt That A Small Group Of Committed People Can CHANGE THE WORLD. Indeed, It Is The Only Thing That Ever Has.”

Hi Jamiee,
A powerful video clip of what can be achieved by the collective mind of humankind. This occurs first with a thought..
Hi John,
Thanks for your comment. You’re exactly right on that one… it just takes one person or a small group of people to have one positive thought and it can make the world of difference..
Wow! That is a really inspirational video Jaimee. I’ve heard the song If Everyone Cared by Nickelback before – but seeing the clip gives it a whole new perspective. Thanks for sharing!
Hi Kirsty,
Thanks for your comment. I was in exactly the same position I had only heard “if everyone cared” by Nickelback on the radio several times but it wasn’t until I saw this clip that it really hit hard and and meant a lot to me. There was true meaning behind the words, and when songs can deliver a message like that, I find it truly amazing.
Hello Jaimee,
Great track ! I’ve forwarded it to http://www.tallyvsboral.com as an inspirational song for Tallebudgera’s fight against Boral who want to kill our pristine valley with a quarry. Thanks for sending it.
Cheers

Hi Harry,
That sounds horrible. I lived near Tallebudgera a couple of years ago and it is such a beautiful place, I used to go down by the water for Christmas and it was spectacular. I hope they find the song inspirational and help them with their fight.
What an awesome clip Jaimee, it makes me love the song even more. It’s an excellent reminder that we can each make our mark on this world – a truly inspiring thought to mark the start of 2011. Thanks!

Hi Caroline, I completely agree. Everyone has the power to make a real difference in the world, and with inspirational music and videos like this it sure does give me the drive to make a change for the better. The words in Nickelbacks song really does show you how much change everyone could make in the world… “If everyone cared”. Thanks for your message.
Hello Jaimee,
I so love Nickleback – especially his song “If Today Was Your Last Day”. This one “If everyone cared” is so gorgeous….and so true. Imagine if everyone did care!!!
Cheers

Hi Lisa, it sure is beautiful. I try to listen to it at least every couple of days, just to remind myself where determination can lead you and that anyone, including myself can make a significant difference to the world… and that’s my life long dream.. to make a real difference.
