Sejarah Simple Plan
Pada tahun 1996, band Reset dibentuk oleh Pierre Bouvier, Chuck Comeau, Philippe Jolicoeur, dan Adrian White.[1] Reset melakukan tur di Kanada bersama MxPx, Ten Foot Pole, dan Face to Face, walaupun mereka tidak terlalu berhasil mendapatkan popularitas.[2] Album perdana mereka, No Worries, dirilis pada 1999. Tak lama, Chuck Comeau pergi dari band untuk masuk kuliah.[1] Dua tahun kemudian dia bertemu dengan teman-temannya semasa SMA, Jeff Stinco dan Sébastien Lefebvre, yang pada saat itu sedang berada di band mereka masing-masing, dan mereka berniat untuk bergabung membentuk band sendiri.[1] Sementara itu, Reset merilis Album kedua mereka, No Limits. Suatu hari, Comeau dan Bouvier bertemu kembali di konser Sugar Ray[2] dan Bouvier meninggalkan Reset untuk bergabung dengan Comeau. David Desrosiers lalu menggantikan posisi Bouvier di Reset, tetapi dia jga meninggalkan Reset enam bulan kemudian dan bergabung dengan Bouvier. Hal ini membuat Bouvier dapat berkonsentrasi pada posisi vokal, setelah sebelumnya sempat merangkap mengisi posisi vokal sekaligus bass.
Asal nama Simple Plan tidaklah jelas. Ketika ditanya, para personil band sering memberikan jawaban berupa lelucon, termasuk salah satunya adalah karena mereka membentuk band sebagai sebuah "rencana dadakan" untuk menghindari bekerja di restoran cepat saji. Tapi bagaimanapun, kemungkinan paling besar, nama "Simple Plan" diambil dari judul film "A Simple Plan",atau lagu karya Piebald berjudul "Just a Simple Plan".
-2002: No Pads, No Helmets…Just Balls
Pada Maret 2002, Simple Plan merilis studio album pertama mereka, No Pads, No Helmets...Just Balls yang dilanjutkan denga dirilisnya singel: "I'm Just a Kid", "I'd Do Anything", "Addicted", dan "Perfect". Simple Plan tercatat mengatakan bahwa mereka menginginkan album yang murni pop-punk. Judul album ini mengacu pada sebuah frase populer dari olahraga rugby, "No pads, no helmets, just balls."
Album ini mula-mula dirilis di Amerika Serikat dengan isi dua belas lagu, dengan lagu terakhir "Perfect". Namun edisi bonus dan edisi luar negeri kemudian muncul dalam berbagai versi dengan tambahan dua lagu pada dua belas lagu asli. Sebagai contoh, di edisi Amerika terdapat lagu bonus "Grow Up", dan "My Christmas List", sementara edisi Inggris terdapat lagu "One By One" dan "American Jesus" (live, lagu oleh Bad Religion), termasuk bonus dua video klip "I'd Do Anything" dan "I'm Just a Kid".
Di album ini juga terdapat vokal dari penyanyi dari dua band pop-punk lain, seperti dalam "I'd Do Anything" terdapat vokal Mark Hoppus dari Blink-182, dan dalam "You Don't Mean Anything" terdapat vokal Joel Madden dari Good Charlotte.
Pada tahun 2002, tahun saat Simple Plan merilis album ini, Simple Plan tampil di lebih dari 300 pertunjukan, menduduki posisi puncak chart "Alternative New Artist", dan tampil pada tur Jepang dimana tiketnya terjual habis. Pada 2003, mereka tampil sebagai salah satu band utama di Vans Warped Tour. Juga sebuah penampilam yang terekam dalam sebuah film komedi kritik, Punk Rock Holocaust, dimana empat dari mereka diceritakan terbunuh. Mereka juga tampil dalam Warped Tour tahun 2004 dan 2005. Juga di 2003, mereka menjadi aksi pembuka untuk tur "Try To Shut Me Up" milik Avril Lavigne.[6] Sebagai tambahan beberapa tur, mereka juga menjadi aksi pembuka untuk Green Day dan Good Charlotte. Album ini terjual 1 juta copy hingga awal 2003 tetapi album ini telah terjual 4 juta copy di seluruh dunia, menjadikan album tersukses mereka secara komersial.
-2004: Still Not Getting Any…
Pada Oktober 2004, Simple Plan merilis album kedua mereka yang berjudul Still Not Getting Any..., yang nantinya diikuti oleh singel "Welcome to My Life", "Shut Up!", "Untitled (How Could This Happen to Me?)", dan "Crazy".
Seperti disebutkan sebelumnya, ketika menulis materi album "No Pads, No Helmets…Just Balls", para personil Simple Plan menginginkan album yang murni pop-punk. Tetapi kali ini, dalam proses menulis album "Still Not Getting Any…", mereka mengatakan bahwa mereka tidak ingin membatasi diri mereka pada genre punk, tetapi agaknya membiarkan diri mereka untuk menulis "musik yang baik".[5]
Simple Plan tampil di Massachusetts pada Mei 2005.
Berdasarkan bonus DVD dari "Still Not Getting Any…", selama pembuatan album, para personil Simple Plan sempat memikirkan beberapa nama unutk album ini, seperti "Get Rich or Die Trying" dan "In The Zone". Mereka memilih nama "Still Not Getting Any…" (arti: Masih Tidak Bisa Mendapatkan … satupun) untuk beberapa alasan. Alasan yang paling terkenal dan kira-kira paling mewakili adalah karena mereka berpikir bahwa mereka belum mendapatkan penilaian yang bagus, Pierre Bouvier menambahkan bahwa mereka baru mendapatkan satu penilaian yang baik, yaitu dari Alternative Press. Alasan yang lain adalah bahwa saat itu mereka masih belum mendapatkan respek yang baik. Ada banyak lagi alasan yang diutarakan oleh mereka, karena kata apapun benar-benar dapat diletakkan di bagian elipsis pada judul tersebut. Chuck Comeau menambahkan bahwa nama album tersebut "serba guna".
Sementara itu , dari segi musik "Still Not Getting Any…" menunjukkan perubahan yang dramatis dari gaya bermain Simple Plan. Mereka masih dapat menjaga gaya mereka untuk tetap menggunakan lirik downbeat yang dipadu dengan musik upbeat, tetapi mereka berhasil untuk keluar dari standar genre pop-punk. Walaupun banyak lagu dari album ini yang masih membawakan perasaan labil seorang remaja seperti lagu "I'm Just a Kid" dari album mereka sebelumnya, secara umum album ini cenderung ke tema lirik yang lebih dalam dan lebih dewasa, termasuk juga suara musik yang terdengar sedikit lebih keluar dari gaya pop-punk murni. Beberapa penilaian profesional menekankan pada penyertaan elemen rock "klasik" dan "tendensi", mengatakan bahwa album ini "tidak menekankan pop-punk yang sangat aktif dalam tujuan membentuk rock modern yang dibentuk dengan rapi dan tidak basa-basi".
-2008: Simple Plan
Setelah sekitar satu setengah tahun dalam tur "Still Not Getting Any…", mereka mengakhiri tur tersebut pada Februari 2006, untuk kemudian mengambil waktu istirahat singkat sebelum memulai pekerjaan pada album ketiga mereka. Pierre Bouvier melalui situs blog MySpace resminya mengatakan bahwa ia sedang menuju Miami pada 21 Maret 2007 untuk bekerja dengan seorang produser yang saat itu belum diketahui siapa, yang kemudian diketahui adalah Dave Fortman. Simple Plan mulai memasuki studio untuk tahap pra-produksi di Los Angeles pada 29 Juni. Pada 15 Juli mereka kembali ke Montreal untuk merekam lagu mereka di Studio Piccolo, studio yang sama tempat mereka merekam "Still Not Getting Any…." Ketika mereka selesai merekam seluruh lagu, mereka kembai ke Miami untuk tahap mixing dan mastering. Beberapa sentuhan akhir pada album dilakukan di New York dan album mereka resmi selesai pada 21 Oktober 2007, walaupun kemudian mereka kembali ke studio untuk merekam ulangabeberapa lirik dalam lagu "Generation".
Simple Plan tampil dengan empat personil di Dubai pada 5 Desember 2008 karena ketidakhadiran David Desrosiers
"When I'm Gone", singel pertama dari album Simple Plan dirilis pada 29 Oktober 2007. Album Simple Plan diproduseri oleh Dave Fortman, yang terkenal atas kerjanya dengan Avril Lavigne dan Kelly Clarkson. Pada 17 Februari 2008, Simple Plan mendapatkan posisi chart tertinggi mereka di Inggris, setelah dua album sebelumnya gagal memasuki chart disana. Pada 29 November 2007, Simple Plan mengumumkan akan menunda tanggal rilis album dari sebelumnya 29 Januari 2008 menjadi tanggal 12 Februari 2008. Mereka juga merilis album dengan label "Japan version", dengan tambahan 2 lagu, yang dirilis seminggu lebih awal, yaitu pada 6 Februari 2008. Album ini adalah album yang paling gagal menuai sukses jika dibandingkan dengan seluruh album mereka.
Setelah menyelesaikan tur promosional internasional mereka, Simple Plan tampil pada beberapa acara liburan pada Desember 2007. Pada 1 Juli 2008, mereka membuat konser gratis di Quebec City, Plains of Abraham, menarik 150.000 penonton ke acara Canada Day.[9] Setelah kemabali dari Asia tengah dan timur pada akhir Juli, mereka kembali pada tur ke seluruh Kanada[10] bersama dengan Faber Drive dan Cute is What We Aim For.[11] Metro Station dan The All-American Rejects sebenarnya dijadwalkan untuk ambil bagian dalam tur tersebut, namun dibatalkan karena suatu hal. Mereka kembali pada tur penuh Eropa kedua mereka pada 28 Oktober hingga 29 November, dengan Estonia dan Polandia untuk pertama kalinya. Simple Plan juga tampil di Tel Aviv dan Dubai pada awal Desember, dimana pada konser ini mereka tampil dengan empat personil mengikuti absennya bassist David Desrosiers karena masalah keluarga dan digantikan sementara oleh Sébastien Lefebvre untuk mengisi posisi bass.
-2011: Get Your Heart On!
Simple Plan merilis album keempat mereka yang berjudul Get Your Heart On! pada 21 Juni 2011. Album ini diproduseri oleh Brian Howes.[12][13] Album mereka kali ini adalah kali kedua mereka berkolaborasi dengan artis lain sejak album No Pads, No Helmets...Just Balls bersama Mark Hoppus (Blink-182) dan Joel Madden (Good Charlotte). Pada album ini, mereka berkolaborasi dengan Rivers Cuomo (Weezer), Natasha Bedingfield, K'naan dan Alex Gaskarth (All Time Low). Pada 20 April mereka mengumumkan bahwa "Jet Lag" akan menjadi singel pertama dari album ini. Lagu tersebut dirilis dalam versi Inggris dan Perancis dimana Simple Plan berkolaborasi dengan Natasha Bedingfield dan Marie-Mai pada masing-masing lagu. Untuk mempromosilan lagu tersebut, sebuah layanan bernama "JetLag Airlines" dibuat di situs web mereka, berisi berita, lirik, daftar lagu, dan video terkait album keempat mereka. "Jet Lag" diputar perdana pada 25 April, sementara video musiknya dirilis pada 4 Mei bersama Natasha Bedingfield dan 16 Mei bersama Marie-Mai.

SIMPLE PLAN-The End
I’ve been trying to tell you something
But you never understand
I feel like we’ve been going ’round in circles
You look at me like I’ve become
A stranger on the streets,
A skeleton that’s been hiding in your closet
But you never understand
I feel like we’ve been going ’round in circles
You look at me like I’ve become
A stranger on the streets,
A skeleton that’s been hiding in your closet
I see you next to me but still you feel so far away
Where did we go wrong?
(Where did we go wrong?)
I guess this is the part where you look at me
And say goodbye
Where did we go wrong?
(Where did we go wrong?)
I guess this is the part where you look at me
And say goodbye
Don’t, don’t let me go
It’s not the end, whoa
Girl you know it’s not so bad
It’s not the end, whoa
No it’s not the end
It’s not the end, whoa
Girl you know it’s not so bad
It’s not the end, whoa
No it’s not the end
I’ve been around the world
And I’ve seen so many things
I can’t even tell you where I’m going
But no matter where I’m heading
And no matter what I do
Something keeps me coming back to you
And I’ve seen so many things
I can’t even tell you where I’m going
But no matter where I’m heading
And no matter what I do
Something keeps me coming back to you
I see you next to me but still you feel so far away
Where did we go wrong?
(Where did we go wrong?)
I guess this is the part where you look at me
And say goodbye
Where did we go wrong?
(Where did we go wrong?)
I guess this is the part where you look at me
And say goodbye
Don’t, don’t let me go

Don’t, don’t let me go
It’s not the end, whoa
Girl you know it’s not so bad
It’s not the end, whoa
You know it’s not the end
What can I do when you’re gone
When it feels so wrong
What can I say
To make you wanna stay
So what can I do
Don’t leave me this way
Cause it feels so wrong
Let’s stop all these games
Cause I just can’t say goodbye
When it feels so wrong
What can I say
To make you wanna stay

SIMPLE PLAN- No Love
Staring out into the world across the street
You hate the way your life turned out to be
He’s pulling up in the driveway and you don’t make a sound
Cause you always learn to hold the things you want to say
Your always going to be afraid
You hate the way your life turned out to be
He’s pulling up in the driveway and you don’t make a sound
Cause you always learn to hold the things you want to say
Your always going to be afraid
[Chorus:]
There’s only hate
There’s only tears
There’s only pain
There is no love here
Oh so what will you do?
There’s only lies
There’s only fears
There’s only pain
There is no love here
There’s only hate
There’s only tears
There’s only pain
There is no love here
Oh so what will you do?
There’s only lies
There’s only fears
There’s only pain
There is no love here
Broken down like a mirror smashed to peices
You learned the hard way to shut your mouth and smile
If these walls could talk they would have so much to say
Cause everytime you fight the scars are gonna heal but there never gonna go away
You learned the hard way to shut your mouth and smile
If these walls could talk they would have so much to say
Cause everytime you fight the scars are gonna heal but there never gonna go away
[Chorus:]
There’s only hate
There’s only tears
There’s only pain
There is no love here
Oh so what will you do?
There’s only lies
There’s only fears
There’s only pain
There is no love here
Oh no So what will you do?
There’s only hate
There’s only tears
There’s only pain
There is no love here
Oh so what will you do?
There’s only lies
There’s only fears
There’s only pain
There is no love here
Oh no So what will you do?
Your falling, your screaming
Your stuck in the same old nightmare
He’s lying, your crying
There’s nothing left to salvage
Kick the door cause this is over
Get me out of here
Your stuck in the same old nightmare
He’s lying, your crying
There’s nothing left to salvage
Kick the door cause this is over
Get me out of here
(Kick the door)
[Chorus:]
There’s only hate
There’s only tears
There’s only pain
There is no love here
Oh so what will you do?
There’s only lies
There’s only fears
There’s only pain
There is no love here
Tell me what will you do?
There’s only hate
There’s only tears
There’s only pain
There is no love here.
There’s only hate
There’s only tears
There’s only pain
There is no love here
Oh so what will you do?
There’s only lies
There’s only fears
There’s only pain
There is no love here
Tell me what will you do?
There’s only hate
There’s only tears
There’s only pain
There is no love here.

SIMPLE PLAN - Welcome To My Life
Do you ever feel like breaking down?
Do you ever feel out of place?
Like somehow you just don't belong
And no one understands you
Do you ever wanna runaway?
Do you lock yourself in your room?
With the radio on turned up so loud
That no one hears you screaming
No you don't know what it's like
When nothing feels all right
You don't know what it's like
To be like me
To be hurt
To feel lost
To be left out in the dark
To be kicked when you're down
To feel like you've been pushed around
To be on the edge of breaking down
And no one's there to save you
No you don't know what it's like
Welcome to my life
Do you wanna be somebody else?
Are you sick of feeling so left out?
Are you desperate to find something more?
Before your life is over
Are you stuck inside a world you hate?
Are you sick of everyone around?
With their big fake smiles and stupid lies
While deep inside you're bleeding
No you don't know what it's like
When nothing feels all right
You don't know what it's like
To be like me
To be hurt
To feel lost
To be left out in the dark
To be kicked when you're down
To feel like you've been pushed around
To be on the edge of breaking down
And no one's there to save you
No you don't know what it's like
Welcome to my life
No one ever lied straight to your face
No one ever stabbed you in the back
You might think I'm happy but I'm not gonna be okay
Everybody always gave you what you wanted
Never had to work it was always there
You don't know what it's like, what it's like
To be hurt
To feel lost
To be left out in the dark
To be kicked when you're down
To feel like you've been pushed around
To be on the edge of breaking down
And no one's there to save you
No you don't know what it's like (what it's like)
To be hurt
To feel lost
To be left out in the dark
To be kicked when you're down
To feel like you've been pushed around
To be on the edge of breaking down
And no one's there to save you
No you don't know what it's like
Welcome to my life
Welcome to my life
Welcome to my life
Do you ever feel out of place?
