Official recording of Simple Plan’s concert with the Montreal Symphonic Orchestra

If you’re a fan of classical music or even if you’re not, these videos are something you definitely cannot miss! As I have announced earlier, yesterday the Canadian TV station Tele-Quebec aired a 120-minutes-long recording of Simple Plan’s show with the Montreal Symphonic Orchestra (OSM), which took place during this year’s Simple Plan Foundation benefit event.

This very unusual collaboration of the classical and pop-rock music is deifnitely worth watching. And according to the producers of this program, the whole concert should be available on DVD very soon!

Below, you can check out selected videos from this recording – the performances of What If, Summer Paradise and This Song Saved My Life. More videos in this beautiful quality can be found here.

New version of the Can’t Keep My Hands Off You music video

Thank to SPB.com for finding Mark Staubach‘s (the director of CKMHOY, Astronaut and Summer Paradise) VIMEO account, here is his slightly different version of the Can’t Keep My Hands Off You music video, than the one that has been distributed to media. If you compare both versions, you’ll see this one includes little more shots of the prom attendants – particularly a bit more of them making out than the first one.

Official music video for Summer Paradise is here!

That was quick! Not even 2 months passed since the release of the last Simple Plan music video and here we are about to watch the next one – this time for the promised new single Summer Paradise! It is the first official Simple Plan music video which is using footage in a way A Big Package For You was – meaning a sort of mix between live footage and footage from when the SP guys are just having fun with each other. This video was directed by Mark Staubach, who has previously directed Simple Plan’s videos for Can’t Keep My Hands Off You and Astronaut. But it wouldn’t be Simple Plan, if there wasn’t a little catch about this video: apparently it won’t be the only music video we’ll see of Summer Paradise! Check out the band’s official statement:

Once again, Australia is ahead of the curve! They are the first country in the world to release Summer Paradise as a single off Get Your Heart On! and we couldn’t be more excited! This is one of our favorite songs off the album and we can’t wait for everyone to hear it. The sun and warm weather are coming to OZ and we really hope this song will be a part of your summer and put a smile on your face.

We had so much fun on our last Australian visit that we decided to make a special “OZ Tour” video for our fans down under and around the world. We hope you will enjoy it and that it will bring back good memories if you were at the shows! We had a blast with you guys and can’t wait to come back!

For all our fans around the world, don’t worry… “Summer Paradise” will be coming to your country really soon! We plan on releasing the song worldwide and film another video as well. We will let you know as soon as we have more details.

Thanks for all your support and can’t wait to see you all on tour in 2012!

Simple Plan on Christmas Jingle Jams in the USA

In the last couple of days, Simple Plan have returned after a short break back to the United States to perform on two Christmas radio shows – the so-called Jingle Jams. The whole band performed a normal set on the first one in v Indianapolis, but on the second one, yesterday in Memphis, the band was scheduled to play only an acoustic show, which is why Chuck flew to Miami and did not attend this event. The rest of the guys played their show in Memphisu and before that also met a few of their fans on the meet&greet organised by The Q radio station. Now, thanks to my friend Bruna you can check out her awesome pictures from this meet&greet and then also pictures from both Jingle Jams:

Pierre and Sebastien have stopped by The Q radio station a couple days before the last Jingle Jam. You can check out the interview with them below::

And what are Simple Plan’s plans for the rest of the year? The guys are now getting back to their families to spend the Christmas holidays with them and till the end of the year they still have one scheduled show to perform at: on the New Year’s Eve show at the Niagara falls!
