littleflower+JMJ Posted June 8, 2005 Share Posted June 8, 2005 I came across this awesome video by Nick Cannon. "Can I live?" It's his story, about his mom, and the choice she made. It's a powerful testimony to the Pro-Life camp, about the choices we make, about how beautiful life is and the price that would have been paid had the abortion taken place for Nick himself and millions more like him. His main line is, "If I could talk I would say to you, CAN I LIVE? CAN I LIVE?" Tatyana Ali ("The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air") plays an 18-year-old pregnant mother, who's deciding what to do outside of an abortion clinic. "Can I Live" is from the perspective of the baby inside her stomach telling her that he needs to live. The video's script — based on the story of Cannon's mother who was 18 when she had him.

jmjtina Posted June 9, 2005 Share Posted June 9, 2005 Can I Live? is getting some airplay on MTV. Consider voting for Can I Live? so they air the video more often. You never know, maybe we can get that video on TRL! [url="http://www.mtv.com/onair/trl/vote/"]Click here to vote.[/url]. Scroll down nearly to the bottom, click on "other" and enter the fields. Let's get this video on the countdown, which will get the message to the masses! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Zewe V Posted June 9, 2005 Share Posted June 9, 2005 Considering the only people who watch MTV are already idiot Democrats, it hardly matters. And with this video apparently on MTV (?)...oh, confusion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

God Conquers Posted June 9, 2005 Share Posted June 9, 2005 Incredible Video and song.... what courage. I voted from "other" haha, I don't even get MTV. As much as you might think it'll never play on MTV, multiply that by infinity and that's the chances a video like this would have of playing on Much Music Canada.
