We all need to cry sometimes because we are human and humans have feelings and Always remember a rainbow doesn't show up without rain and sun. But don't cry everyday like I used to do. It's not good for the health and it can make you suicide. Always remember there is always a new day. I new sunny day. We just have to be patient and tell your self "I deserve more, I deserve to be happy not sad all the time. I can make it happen" even is not fast the results someday you will make it happen. You just have to be patient. :) Take Care :)

I believe that people who got bullied are the nicest when it comes to respect other's differences. You want a true friend? Meet a bullied :)

i've bullied for 7 year! i fighted every single day but when i was 13, i heard this song... i stoped fighting and showed my true colors. i cried so hard for 7 years that the whole world could hear it. and after those 7 years i found my true colors and i will show everyone my true colors. 3 years later and i still love this song

I love this song so much.... I've been bullied as well, just like everyone else. But, it was by the one person I loved. And, I almost died because of it. But since then, I've learned a lot. And I kicked him out of my life. And now I found someone I'm the happiest with :) and me and him are going to be happy together :D it always makes me feel so guilty when my parents scrape food into the garbage or when my friends poke holes in their water bottles and put water everywhere because that food and that clean water could save lives. Yet we take it for granted. It's sad how we think of ourselves instead of others. Some day I want to go out and give food to homeless people. Or give out roses to random people and tell them how beautiful they are, just to make them smile.

I would always listen to this song and I just loved it, I never really noticed how empowering it really is until I saw the video. Not gonna lie, I cried while watching this. Bullying, sure it happens, but no one reaches out. Sure, online or around people, people say that they'll stand up for you if you're getting bullied, but when you need them most, they do nothing. It isn't fair for victims of bullying to be given a promise of a rescue, when no one's coming. I myself do get depressed, a lot, and it hurts, especially, because the one's I thought would never hurt me, did. The one's who said that they would always be there for me, are never there. I'm not trying to sound selfish, I'm saying this for like everyone who gets bullied. It's not fair for you to make a promise you're not going to keep. Promises are meant to be kept, lies aren't.

“We are what we are because we have been what we have been." Sigmund Freud. Remember that : once you hurt someone, they will never forget! I've been always treated differently, I don't think I could say I was bullied cause I think it would offend people who were seriously bullied, but people used to say that since I was fat and I had this personality no one would love me, and I would never have friends. It still hurt, I still hate myself, but I'm not gonna let them win, I'm amazing even if I don't realize that, and it's the same for all of you! You are amazing.

xshirino yes that's true it doesn't matter when people pick on u all u have to do is be who you are and live ur own life without any fear cause that's how I'll see ur real self... Ur true colours

This song means a lot. It's doesn't matter what you look like its in the inside of you, you people that stand up and don't care what the bullies think you have a heart of gold. The bullies are scared of you because they know you will be better then them and be more successful and they try to break you down. Everyone is supposed to be in this world until they change but the good people are supposed to kick bad in the ass.👊🏻😜

This song makes me happy and reminds me why I like to help others.

There are thousands of boys and girls that bursts the heart for what he did in school and out, and if a song like this can help others like them ... ... listen to it and let it run on all your Facebook profiles, Twitter or similar with the word "STOP BULLYING".From Italy with heart in hand,just a mom.

This song makes me feel really happy, to know that people are not alone. Nobody is alone. Everybody is beautiful in their own way. Don't forget that. Everybody is "like a rainbow". Stand up. Don't let people do that to you, you're amazing, think of all the things that make you beautiful. Don't give up💙

this song helps everyone who is in depression. If that's you then think, don't let people bring you down live the life YOU want to live it. I live in depression most of my life feeling like the world hates me i'm standing in a small black room alone. while everyone else is on the outside is living life how they want to. Well no one can change who you are so take everyday as you want and make a memory of that day. Step out of that box and make a trail.where you started and keep moving forward.

I keep coming back to this version of True Colors and I always love it. I always get teary eyed while listening to it, not because I dislike the song but because I love this song sooooo much. thank you for this infinitely beautiful rendition of this song.

Music comes in many different forms... For the people saying the rap verse by Kardinal Offishall ruined this song -> the words he raps mean something unlike most rap songs today, thumbs up for him donating his time to a cause that has an affect on almost everyone in this world.

I cannot, just cannot, say enough about this. I am almost speechless. I hope Cyndi Lauper loves this as much as I do or anyone else. I couldn't give this enough stars if I was allowed. There aren't enough. I love this collaboration.

This song is a light for all those who think they're trapped in a dark place. I hope this video reaches every corner of the world so that when people are right at the edge of oblivion they can watch this and step back knowing it's going to be ok!

I'm afraid to show my true colours .where ever I go I sometimes get so lonely I got bullied a lot of times at my old school nobody really like me they teased me, say horrible things to me and always have a problem with my clothes I never really told my parents but when I moved to a new school I got a chance to show who I really am and because of that I made some friends through those years I was so happy with my life my old life and the bullies disappear in my life I am in a new life and I LOVE THIS SONG SO MUCH!💟💟

This song has a great message, and I'm sure a lot of people feel very strongly about the message of this song, whether they have been bullied or not. What we all need to remember is that we have all been a bully at least once in our lives, whether for a few seconds or even more. Everybody should think about their actions, your actions may not seem hurtful to you, but they could really hurt someone else. We should try to stop bullying, but remember to practise what you preach.

three of my favorite bands are doing this and helping a good cause i'm finally breaking out of my shell after being bullied in high school. to all the people that are still with me and to all the new faces that are showing up in my life you truely don't know how much it means to have you people in my life being in an environment playing a card game i love without being ridiculed and hassled. people from the cave thank you your turning a fake smile into a genuine one

I love this song it's helped me stay strong when I wanted to huddle in a corner and cry because I'm getting bullied and it's also help me appreciate the who accept me for me and don't wanna change me

I got bullied a lot as a kid by the kids at school and by some of the teachers its not easy but one day they'll be gone from your life . And the friends that count are the ones that are there keep looking forward don't let them beat your spirit in the end you will be the happy one and the bullies will cross the wrong person and get what, they deserve.

I love this. ALL of this. When I see Canadian artists come together for a song with as much meaning as this one, it just kills me. It's so beautiful. NOTHING in this song is without purpose. I don't even care if there WAS rap, it made it all work and was just as beautiful if you listen. To have so many of my favorite artists singing this... instant favorite. Absolutely LOVE it.

Made me cry when I first heard this. Beautiful take on the song, nice to see these Canadian artists standing up for this cause!

You with the sad eyes, don't be discouraged Oh I realize, it's hard to take courage In a world full of people, you can lose sight of it And the darkness inside you makes you feel so small But I see your true colours shining through I see your true colours, that's why I love you So don't be afraid to let them show, your true colours True colours are beautiful Like a rainbow Like a rainbow Show me a smile then, don't be unhappy Can't remember when I last saw you laughing If this world makes you crazy and you've taken all you can bear You call me up because you know I'll be there And I see your true colours shining through I see your true colours, that's why I love you So don't be afraid to let them show, your true colours True colours are beautiful Like a rainbow Yeah, I see your colours, though they appear to be different You should never be afraid because your difference is the difference We live in a time where to be yourself is hard And the way you really feel can leave you emotionally scarred But stay strong, stand firm and never back down Being yourself is the only way to act, man (like a rainbow) Trust me, I'm a fighter and a lover But the only time I fight is to reveal my true colours, you know And I see your true colours shining through I see your true colours, that's why I love you So don't be afraid to let them show, your true colours True colours are beautiful (yeah) Like a rainbow (I see your true colours shining through) Like a rainbow (There is no difference between me and you) True colours, yeah (Love the way you are) True colours, yeah (I see your true colours) You with the sad eyes

this song gave me so much confidence I listen to it every time I'm sad or being bothered cuz it helps me a lot

Watching this video 11 years later still hits the same, I used to watch it in my elementary school and loved it, it’s still amazing this version of the song is the best one.

Cette chanson est tout simplement magnifique ! Bravo à tous les artistes ayant participés à ce projet ! Cette musique représente parfaitement les fonctions de la musique : rassembler, émouvoir, et faire passer un message. C'est une parfaite harmonie entre tous les chanteurs ! J'adore ! merci.

bless this cover Ive been trying to find one I like, and so far this one is the best

Jessie Le Fey - I finished high school and I'm currently in my first year of college. I'm a lot stronger now. I forgot to mention that I'm way over that while memory of being bullied. I used to feel pain every time I think about it. But now I don't feel anything but brave in knowing for the future when I get faced with something as bullying as I would know how to react and handle those kind of situations.

2:45, the casual pencil spin. Loving the song.

i love how they send the message stop bullying, reach out and help someone, stand up and express yourself, dont let it happen, be yourself, dont change who you are because your afraid, fight for what you believe in and your beautiful no matter what anyone says

Never get the victim mentality, you only limit yourself, you are a force, no one can take that away from you. In the game of life, it doesn't matter what others "think" of you, it is how you think of yourself that matters, be a Survivor, never a victim. Bullys are often victims in their own homes, I figured that out a long time ago and maybe helped a few bullies out w/my stubbornness and never giving up. Most of all, Be Yourself and Love Yourself, You are Unique, no one out there is like you, so don't change for someone else. .....moves away from keyboard thus ending tonight's public service rant...

a lot of these comments are about stories of suicide or bullying, but its nice when some videos or songs' comment section are meant for those stories, like a place to let everything out. this video is how to use the internet in a positive way, and not a negative one. and btw, i think a grade 6 class performed this at my school, but i was in 2nd grade. been looking for the exact cover for 4 years and i finally found it.

OOOOOOOOOOOOR. MAYBE, JUST MAYBE! since they didn't make a name for themselves and were too weak to deal with the cruel thing we call life neither I nor you even know who those people are anyway. And besides the point the ugly truth is; like a river, life goes on they weren't important, like drops of rain in said river as opposed to a rock. I've had lots of trouble with suicide but my anger and determination far outweigh my sadness I like to look at it like this when dealing with horrible people. They drive me and one day when I'm standing on top I'm going to tell them TO GO FUCK THEMSELFS you have to have faith, not in that god and bible bullshit but in yourself and the unpredictability of the future, on top of things like this, the best thing about being at your worst is you can only get better. The same hammer that shatters glass forges steel, cheesy but very true. Also, make your own path don't be like the clingy, stupid, ill-informed people these days or people acting like they care about anything but themselves or saying stupid irrelevant shit like this guy or girl above, and don't listen to people, people are fucking idiots lul.

Beautiful, If only the young could see that being different is not only okay but it makes you who you are. Embrace all that you are, for you are perfect just as you are. No one has the right to make you feel small or inadequate, unfortunately are self esteem allows them to shatter us into a million pieces. Love, respect and acceptance are the glue that will hold those pieces together. Love one another as people and find the positive in others rather than the negative. From one that was bullied

You have heard to love your neighbors and hate your enemies. But I say to you love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you so that you may be children of your father in heaven ; for he makes the sun rise on the evil and on the good, and sends the rain on the righteous and the unrighteous. For if you love those who love you what reward do you have? Do not even the tax collectors do the same? And if you greet only your brothers and sisters what more are you doing than others? Do not even Gentiles do the same? Be perfect, therefore, as your heavenly father is perfect. (Matthew 5. 43 - 48)

This song makes me soo sad because i feel soo sorry for people that are getting bullied and i hope someone is brave enough to stand up for them.

Most people just write Color. Canadians really don't care which way you write it unless its on an essay or official document.

This song is carries such a powerful message, and I think having many people singing this makes it even so more powerful with so many voices echoing it. I've listened to this song dozens of times but it still gives me chills every time. I love each of these artists, as well as Cyndi Lauper for making incredible music, and I think there needs to be more support for these artists so we can get more music like this. :)

Everyone have to understand the colours of the other people, it's a problem in the schools of my contry, in France. I've heard this song on a french radio and i listened it with a lot of attention because it's so beautiful and the message is really important : be yourself and the world will become a true rainbow!

Well well. This song hasnt aged well because Jacob Hoggard is a sex offender

It's been a week, and I still think this cover is totally amazing. It's been stuck in my head since hearing it. Damn.

I listed to this sing when it first came out and I Sang it in class 6 years ago I still love it it makes the best image to people to be there self's

One of my favorite versions of this song and I’ve heard many in my years around the sun. 😊❤️

i just love the message this song brings to people who have been bullied, i think it really is and insparational song and catchy too

Woooooww im in love for this version, really really goood!!!!!!!

goosebumps. Gosh I love Lights. She's beautiful.

we need more of this energy with 2022 and going forward

I could literally listen to this for hours such talent wow

A version so different to others and yet so beautiful to listen! Can't stop listening to it.. But I won't make an effort to do so.. I love you guys! You make the difference!

can't stop listening...always this song encouraged me a lot. stand up, all!!

I love this song. It gives me hope and tells me that people do care. Thx artists against

this song will always be in my heart

Lights & Hedley hit my heart

The reason i like this song is only cause it gives ME hope, courage and it makes me feel like people really DO care if you were gone :) I've been cutting for a few years now just cause i get bullied.... Fuck bullies!! I was born for a reason!! We all were! Don't let anyone tell you different!!

Wow i love this song i been bully all my life :( but I'm still here crying and sad
