The song is pretty good till the end :biggrin2:
Spoiler alert: Former Toronto mayor Rob Ford appears, but only in the final six seconds of the a powerful anthem in the fight against cancer.
The stars of the video are 11 local indie singers from Spectra Talent Contest, a multicultural and LGBTA inclusive showcase, and a division of the .
“I’d ask everyone to put their politics aside and stand behind the causes this song represents,” Ford said in a prepared statement.
Ford sings the line, “It’s not my time” at the closing of the song, which he predicted will be a success.
He is scheduled to undergo cancer surgery next week.
“I’m hoping our song will become a much-needed anthem of hope,” RACA executive director Ralph Hamelmann said in a prepared statement.
He co-wrote the song with record producer Mark Zubek and Gemini Award winner Paul Bellini.
“Two years ago, my mother was diagnosed with cancer and given a 30 to 50 per cent chance of surviving,” Hamelmann said.
“Even though her surgery was extremely aggressive, she fought for her life and beat the odds,” Hamelmann said.
“I wanted to write a song that would inspire others in her situation and put RACA’s indie singers in the spotlight,” Hammelman said. “Given Rob Ford’s current bout with the disease, his celebrity status, and his previous work with Canadian musicians, he was an obvious choice for this project.”
Ford apparently has no plans to head off to Nashville or audition for The Voice but he did predict the song will become a hit.
The song will be released on June 22 but the official music video can be seen now at notmytime.ca.
The group pledges all of the revenues from digital recording sales will go to RACA and the Canadian Cancer Society.
