Sebastien joins Cameo!

In the past few months, many Simple Plan fans have grabbed their chance to receive a personalized greeting from a member of Simple Plan on the platform called Cameo. There, for a small fee, you can request a video message from your favorite artist – asking them a question, to play you a song or just to say hi.

So far, Pierre Bouvier and Chuck Comeau from Simple Plan, who’ve been on Cameo for a while now, have become very popular on this platform, fulfilling many of their fans’ requests. Now, you might have missed this, as he didn’t promote it much on his social media channels, but Sebastien Lefebvre from the band has now also joined Cameo. Go check out his profile right here and perhaps hit him up with a request.

We have now added all of these official Cameo profiles to our official Simple Plan links section, to make it easier for you to sort our fake and official profiles.

Pierre covered Montreal Canadiens’ goal song

For a new video published on the official YouTube channel of the Montreal Canadiens’ ice-hockey team, Pierre Bouvier was asked through the platform Cameo to record a message for the Habs fans and also to cover the team’s goal song.

The video is in French, but we’re sure you’ll be able to appreciate it none-the-less:

Chuck Comeau joins Cameo

After Pierre Bouvier joined the Cameo platform (which allows fans to request their favorite celebrity to record a short message, shout-out or a greeting for a small fee) last year, the fans now have a unique opportunity to request a video message from another one of their favorite Simple Plan members! Yes, indeed. Chuck Comeau, the drummer, song-writer, and let’s face it – the real manager of the band, decided to give Cameo a shot as well.

And how else would Chuck promote his Cameo than by asking his pal Pierre (through Cameo!) to record a special message for his Instagram followers that they can now find Chuck there as well. In the video message, Pierre said some very nice things about his oldest friend and also decided to perform a little bit of blink-182’s ‘Going Away To College’, given it’s Chuck’s all time favorite song. Check out the full video below:

And what exactly were the reasons why Chuck decided to join Cameo? Read his full comment about Cameo below:

“I’m on Cameo!

Yes, it’s official! I’ve decided to join Cameo and what better way to make this announcement and celebrate than getting a cameo for myself from my favorite artist of all time and best friend since I’m 12 years old, the one and only Pierre Bouvier! 🎉🎉🎉🤩🤩🤩

I don’t want to get too corny, but his video made me feel pretty emotional. I’m so grateful to be in a band with such a talented, generous, and kind guy who genuinely cares about his friends and fans so much. He even performed my fave song of all time for me, something he does in all his cameo videos. 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

I have to be honest and admit that I was pretty skeptical about Cameo at first, but after watching and reading all the incredible reactions to Pierre’s videos and seeing the amazingly positive impact he’s had on people, I’ve changed my mind.

I’m really looking forward to connecting with all of you, hopefully bring a smile to your face and make your day a little better, celebrate birthdays, anniversaries or big achievements for you or for someone special in your life, offer some life advice, maybe some guidance if you’re in a band or trying to make it as a musician, and try to bring some hope and motivation if you’re going through a tough time and need a little inspiration.

So, if you want, hit the link in my bio and see you on Cameo. Can’t wait to hear from all of you. 🙌🏻

Thank you again Pierre and thanks to each and everyone of you for your amazing and unconditional support over the last 20 years. I appreciate it more than words can say.”

Pierre and Chuck co-wrote new We The Kings song dealing with mental health issues

A few days ago, the American pop punk band We The Kings released a brand new single from their new EP SAGA called ‘The Light’. What’s special about this particular song is that it is one of the few songs that came out of the song-writing sessions Pierre, Chuck and Travis Clark (We The Kings’ lead singer) did in the span of the last few years.

Travis discussed the song recently on his Instagram, where he also mentioned that he co-wrote this song with the help of Simple Plan’s main song-writers, Pierre and Chuck:

“Our 5th single from SAGA is a song called ‘The Light’, which also reflects our 5th album, ‘Strange Love’. Both have themes of finding hope in dark times as well as understanding that sometimes those tough times make you more grateful of the happy ending.

There is no way to say that 2020 wasn’t a struggle for our world. So when we were writing the song, we wanted to offer people a sign of hope that this won’t last forever. I wrote this song with my good friends Pierre and Chuck from the band Simple Plan which I am incredibly grateful for, for us, we all use music to heal and sometimes to escape life and I hope that this song helps us all to see the light at the end of this tunnel.”

Chuck also promoted the song recently on his Instagram Stories, explaining that the main theme of this song were mental health struggles, a topic that is especially important right now, as so many people are having a hard time dealing with the state of the world we’re currently living in. Check out what Chuck wrote about ‘The Light’:

“Pierre and I co-wrote this new We The Kings song with Travis Clark and it just came out a few days ago! Go check it out and let me know what you think! It’s about mental health, overcoming obstacles, getting through tough times… Maybe some of you could find it helpful during these difficult times. I hope you enjoy it.”

You can listen to the entire song below and since we couldn’t find any of the lyrics to this song online just yet, we decided to put them all together ourselves. You can sing along to the song now:

WE THE KINGS – THE LIGHT

For the longest time I felt I couldn’t breath
Cause the darkest clouds would storm inside of me

Like I was drowning in the deepest, darkest sea
And I’d come up for air but the waves crushed down on me

I’m tired of feeling like I’m broken
I found the strength to find my way

Now I can see the light at the end of the tunnel
I’m done with all the days of the pain and the struggle
Say goodbye to all the nights I was under the rubble
Now I can see the light at the end of the tunnel

And I can finally breathe
Yeah, I can finally breathe

I try thousands times but the mountain felt too high
And the weight of the world would never let me climb
let me further back behind
And giving up was the only thing I never tried

I’m tired of feeling like I’m broken
I found the strength to find my way

Now I can see the light at the end of the tunnel
I’m done with all the days of the pain and the struggle
Say goodbye to all the nights I was under the rubble
Now I can see the light at the end of the tunnel

And I can finally breathe
Yeah, I can finally breathe
Yeah, I can finally breathe

Now when I close my eyes I know I’ll be just fine
