The second song is the famous “This Song Saved My Life”, which Simple Plan composed along with their fanbase, making it the first song ever to be written through Twitter:
The last track in this new album entitled “This Song Saved My Life“ about the emotional power music can have in one's life has captured the sentiments behind the thousands of fan mail the band received at its Montreal headquarters each month. The band's vocalist Pierre Bouvier shares that ”these letters are pretty overwhelming and humbling at the same time so we wanted to somehow pay homage to those fans. We were sitting there going, 'I don't know, what do you think they would say?' and Chuck says,'Why don't we just ask them'”. Chuck comeau poster on his twitter feed “We decided to write a song about you guys .... can you tell me how our music has made you feel through the years?” From the responses they received, Bouvier and Comeau constructed their first song ever written entirely via twitter. 25 of their fans from around the world also contributed to the chorus singing 'this Song saved my life” in parts of the song. With lyrics such as “trapped in a hole where everyone hates me” and “I was broken, choking, lost, bleeding ....... this song saved my life”, this song encapsulates how people use music to cope with life and sometimes music saves lifes
