Clumsy (Our Lady Peace Song)

"Clumsy" is the second single released by alternative rock band Our Lady Peace from their second album, Clumsy. It was one of their most successful singles, reaching #1 on Canada's Singles Chart. The song also became very successful in America reaching the Billboard top ten of the modern rock chart peaking at number 5 and remaining in the top ten for 15 weeks straight. It is one of the few tracks on the album not to feature vocalist Raine Maida's falsetto-controlled singing voice, although his trademark paranoid edged-voice is still used. This song is also the lightest on the album. The song was included on the soundtrack to the 1997 movie, I Know What You Did Last Summer.

"Clumsy" has become a staple in Our Lady Peace's live setlist. A live version of the song is featured on their first live compilation Live released in 2003.

Famous quotes containing the words clumsy, lady and/or peace:

    “She’s just a child,
    but I’m the one who’s fainthearted.
    She’s the woman,
    but I’m the coward.
    She bears that high, swollen set of breasts,
    but I’m the one who’s burdened.
    The heavy hips are hers,
    but I’m unable to move.
    It’s a wonder
    how clumsy I’ve become
    because of flaws
    that shelter themselves
    in another.”
    —Amaru (c. seventh century A.D.)

    “A lady with whom I was riding in the forest said to me that the woods always seemed to her to wait, as if the genii who inhabit them suspend their deeds until the wayfarer had passed onward; a thought which poetry has celebrated in the dance of the fairies, which breaks off on the approach of human feet.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “Let there be peace on earth and let it begin with me;
    let there be peace on earth, the peace that was meant to be.”
    —Sy Miller (20th century)
