Classified - Work Away ft. David Myles (Official Music Video)

[@user-mr8dl6yo3z]

My amazing husband works 13 hours away. We live in Alberta and he is is British Columbia. He only gets Sundays off so we do not get to see him. We FaceTime to stay connected. Our daughter and I miss him like crazy. He has been gone for 4 months. He is our amazing hero and we love and appreciate him so much ❤

[@Trolltheworldgaming]

Classified is the best example of a selfless man. All of his music is about helping others and how you should always look up when your down. Great song man!

He'd be better if he replied to KZbin comments. I respect that immensely. I've had a KZbin conversation with G-eazy before he was famous. Haven't missed one of his concerts in my city since. It's the little things that matter :p.

[@jessewrayrobbins2768]

I love that this comment is 5 years old and has not a single dislike 💚 Fuck yeah Classified!

[@danielluxton1911]

I work in the Oil Sands North of Fort Mcmurray. I was working when the fire hit. I am back home on the east cost now. This song is my life in a nutshell. Much respect to Classified for this song and donations. Awesome meaning. I very much appreciate it!!!

[@jakethecollector1516]

As a New Brunswicker. Proud to say we have a artist like Classified coming outta the maritimes, and representing Canada the way he does!

[@jasonphair8478]

Now that's classy....respect for showing love for Fort Mcmurray.

[@kaylasmith5089]

🍁🍁 Classified....... A true Canadian!!🍁🍁 😉We are proud of you!!😊 #fortmcmurray

[@shamikchakraborty3341]

you should be. Cause if you weren't, i would bring him to India and celebrate it for eternity.

[@justintresidder6908]

As a helicopter maintenance engineer I'm gone over 6 months a year. It's tough leaving everytime but "if you don't work then it won't work". This song has got me through time and time again. Thanks Class!

[@Kai1133557799]

On behalf of Alberta, we all thank you for this. I live in Calgary, Alberta. I did not live in Fort Mac, but Fort Mac is part of my province and will always be a part of me. The fire in Fort Mac has affected a lot of people. I recently lost my job because my job worked with the oil industry. But that is no one's fault. Things happen. We haven't lost any lives in the fire, but instead gained 2 new lives as 2 children were born during the fire. We are strong. We are Alberta Strong.

[@braydin3242]

Preach.

[@DerferTV]

we are alberta strong

[@emelyboudreau9805]

Jennifer Nolin yea my dad is out there for work and we haven't seen my birthday

[@iHopeyoure0ffended]

apeboy13 I've been there once, it was cold, and you guys don't seem to have to plow sidewalks, i fell down, i was displeased. Ill probably move or that way sooner or later, i can not afford to live in Vancouver much longer. It's a joke.

[@dafttassia1960]

I don't know if I can express how much I appreciate classified

[@c.n.assembly4417]

One thing I've always appreciated about Classified, is his ability to maintain that certain sound we've all grown to love. Not only that, but his material has almost always hit on an aspect of life that we can all relate to. Props to you 'Class.

[@dpmakestuff]

Love from Alberta! I listen to Class/David when I make my videos!

[@RobbiPromotional]

My dad is 70 years old. He is on the road for most of my life, collecting orders for printed t shirts. We work all day and I try to make his life easier, better and safer. I think of any father who spends their life on the road, with a heavy sample bag, visiting clients trying to gather work for his family. I love you dad

[@R1j0hn]

Left Nova Scotia in 2005 to work in Calgary, Alberta... Moved back to Halifax in 2021 for 2 yrs then had enough of flying back & forth. I'm back in Alberta again, still working away from both my house, and my home... Nova Scotian for life ! But do what you gotta do to make a better life. 💯

[@Brightlightslatenights]

We live in Watson lake, Yukon.5 hours away from Whitehorse. My husband works out of town every month. We have a 7 month old.We love this song and everything it represents.Thanks Luke!

[@cynthiafitzpatrick5055]

As a Fort Mcmurray evacuee, I appreciate Classified's gesture. This song is powerfully relatable and I think many Fort McMurray residents would agree.

[@felixeur1276]

Good to know you are safe and sound! PRAY FOR FORT MAC 😥

[@desmondpaul6370]

I am a fifteen year old living in Edmonton born in fort McMurray. I love this song a thank you for all the support from Alberta we all appreciate it.

[@desmondpaul6370]

***** me too

[@Jasmine-mh3kf]

I deeply respect and admire the people who sacrifice so much in order to provide for their families, including my own wonderful Dad, who has worked away for most of my life but has always put his family first.

[@josh474]

Fort Mac is the heartbeat of my province. Ive made all my money here and to all the people who helped fight the fire, and the people rebuilding the city! Yall are my heros!

[@goforgucci]

Can't believe this song was made well before this terrible disaster. How ironic the video was just released too. I guess Canada needed this Classified! From now on, every time I hear this song, I will think of the time I visited my dad at his camp in Fort Mac as a young child. I will think of all the people I know who work out there. This is the life of Albertans, as Canadians. So much respect for you, David Myles and everyone in this video! We are Alberta Strong! 🍁

[@MF-dv2jk]

So much love for this song, from NS living in AB so it hits home for me for sure. Especially touching with what has been going on in Northern Alberta this week.

[@BigGoldChungus]

I never understood my Dad and Moms sacrifice growing up, My Dad worked months straight in the oilfields and my mom raised my and my brother at home in Edmonton, flash forward 20 years and there's not enough work on Vancouver Island to support my trade full time, so here I lay listening to this song I the back of my work van I call home 5 days a week so I can support my family, people at the shop call me crazy, I say "what would you do for your family?", props to the men and women in our armed forces who are away for too long...

[@braedenchristiansen3263]

I love how he's supporting Fort Mcmurry! Much respect

[@myahbeans7108]

Just made me think of when my dad had to work up in Fort Mac... This song hits home for me, much respect Classified❤️👏

[@YubeToober]

I'm proud to say that I'm Canadian and I love classified because he makes soul food music. I too helped in Fort mcmurray and I jammed to this song while I was up there. the song just hits home.

[@lizgibbons6039]

My dad worked four weeks on two weeks off my whole life , always ended up taking 2-6 days of his two weeks off to fly , he’s a tugboat captain and has been all over the world. We may have missed him greatly but atleast we had each other , he missed us the same but was alone. Anyone who works away from their family knows what I’m saying , it isn’t easy but they do it for the family. I’m almost thirty and I know how much I appreciate my dads sacrifices. He’s now semi retired working in our hometown harbour, life is good!

[@keiraflynn6007]

I lived in Fort. Mac, I was born then my parents divorced 4 years ago and my my dad works up there! He's ok but it was my home with my old friends and it was so sad, I didn't know until I went to school. People told me about it and I just cried and cried, my teacher called my mom to tell her that she was worried about me. When I got home from school that day, I called my dad. We talked and he was ok! I was so happy but yet so sad because I loved it there.Now I getting used to it and I'm feeling better! My friend showed me this song not realizing my situation and I told her and it was ok. Now when I hear this song it makes me realize that it's all ok , it might take awhile to rebuild the parts that were destroyed but that's ok! 😀

[@tysonambler8658]

18 years old and i work for Shell at Jackpine Mine. Fort Mckay, AB. The fire was the biggest eye opener in my life. i work away, so far away from my loved ones and i felt so trapped and alone during the fire. Im glad i made it out and still work up there

[@Fridgette]

Luke, I gotta say this. My family still lives in Enfield. I love & adore your art. I play this song every time I leave. I play it on repeat. I'm a Union President right now....all the Union Presidents in my Union work away. We're all over the country. In the past month I was gone for 6 days, home for 3 days, gone for 5 days, home for 9 days, gone for 5 days....that's the life of an activist. I live in Alberta, and I love being here, despite being a Bluenoser. I love this song & I love the motivation!!! I cheer for Fort Mac & I'm proud to be where I am. I just want you to know that I post this song repeatedly when I work away. I posted this to the 58 other Locals with Presidents who also work away.

[@scotthewitt912]

your home a good amount..i work 14 away home 2...

[@Fridgette]

I value what you sacrifice. I make $33k a yr though. So while I give up my time....I'm not earning big money, regardless of my sacrifices.

[@ambergreen5889]

My husband works 3 weeks on 1 off in bc, we live in Toronto. I keep going for him, for us and our future. He's the only thing I look forward to. I cry when I have to say goodbye on video chat but it's worth it. He's busy taking care of us ❤.

[@reannejuliansylliboy3920]

I am Guidance counsellot and computer instructor in a remote fly in Cree Community. this song hits home. with the exception im away for 4 months before i get a chance to go home for xmas then im away again for 6 months till im home for summer. it is hard but we do what we gotta do to support our families

[@jackhavinga2862]

I am a Canadian tree planter. For two to three months of the year, I leave my family, friends, etc behind to go reforest the cut blocks in BC. I am heading out early April for Haida Gwaii and leaving behind my amazing girlfriend and dog for two months. As is the case for us all, we need money and planting is good, quick, hard-earned money for those with the body and mind for it. This song struck a deep chord within me. Thank you.

[@devinkline2543]

And for the ones that never make it back home.... Praying for your families.

[@LeeLeeLoves]

My friend who lives in Fort Mac shared this, her Husband works at the Oil Sands. They're good people. We're rooting for you Fort Mac. Sending love from England. Xx

[@Jasshands1]

class is awesome. As a albertan I appreciate man and so many others do as well. I was coming back from work a few days ago and I saw some trucks heading south from etown. you could tell they were from Fort mac as they were just loaded full of duffel bags and random things. the next day headed the opposite way. there were trailers full of fuel and food headed to the mac. makes me proud to be albertan and even more proud to be canadian:) keep it up man.

[@roadrunnerbebeep]

Well done, David : ) Wife of an Air force & have twins, so I can relate... brought tears to my eyes!! Love the song btw xxoxxxx : )

[@ryanvanberkel2303]

Much Love. I first heard this song on Feb 17 and absolutely fell in love with it that day. It resonates very deeply with my family. We live in Peggy's Cove and my husband works at CNRL, just north of Fort Mac. Gone 2 weeks, home for 1. Flying back and forth. He landed in Fort Mac on the Tues afternoon when the evacuations had just begun. He lived the nightmare beside all the evacuees driving south to Edmonton. So glad everyone made it out safe. Thank you for being true to NS, and remaining humble.

[@davidlewis8899]

Also isn't Ko-s, D-cicive from there too?

[@QuietTokes]

This song gets to me, only because my mom's away in BC... Can't stop the thoughts, can't stop the pain... But it'll all wash away when she visits, again... Might not be for a really long time, but knowing she loves me... is what makes it fine. Thanks Classified, for keeping it real... for showing the music industry, how we really feel.

[@dorksRawesome]

I've listened to this song probably 1000 times and it still makes me cry every time and makes me think of my hubby.

[@thomasettinger7218]

Keep bringing us together Mr. Boyd.

[@shamikchakraborty3341]

Classified just proved his worth. His name says it.

[@andrewcraft7831]

I love the message in this song!

[@911axe]

I wish I could get home 7 days every month. Writing this as I'm packing for 6 months+ away. Will miss my family :(

[@911axe]

@@davidcurrie8962 dont be so sure of yourself, I do not choose to go. My geographical location decides my life route. Guess I could choose to let the government pay for my living but then theres gonna be someone here calling me out if I was mooching off the gov. Like so many other capable people.

[@hihi2442]

Bought the entire album, props for doing this. I live two hours south of the fire and it's crazy around here.

[@Canuck896]

Thanks Classified for telling all of Canadians stories. 17 years in FT Mac taught me we are one people regardless of what our useless politicians would have us believe.

[@eddiekirk8989]

I can not say enough about this song. To the man who wrote this song (Literally) music to my ears

[@nickhawley3025]

I support all people who work away from there family's, it's hard to be away from your loved ones, and to here about and see the Alberta fire, I felt really bad about what people went through, this song is awesome and it's my favorite song. I also want to work in Alberta and it's time to get ready.

[@13prevailbushcraft]

Right in the feels...

[@patriciiadivineessence]

I want to know where he went. He was a big influence and all of us Canadians haven’t forgot about him 🙏🏽♥️ his music still resonates.

[@scottwatling2808]

Realist hip hop out there. Class has always kept his shit honest AF. Real real and more real. No gimmicks, real lyrics. Live shows are LIT and still REAL. So proud that he's from the homeland of NS.

[@techymum]

Your song is beautiful. I know people who "Work Away" and you always know that their heart is constantly back home. I made a donation to the Red Cross specifically after watching your video. Thank you for sharing it with the world.

[@socratesherreraruvalcaba]

By far classified is My favorite canadian rapper, his lyrics and music express exactly how the average citizen hustles everyday to have the best in life doing a 24/7 effort to get it, not all the bling bling bullcrap that other rappers do always...so genuine in his soul.

Not too often does a video make a song better, but this video just ads so much more relativity and a face to the song. Well done luke, you're a fucking legend

[@williamtheperson]

The fire honestly scared me. When I first saw this song, I cried really, really hard. It showed How someone, only one, can make a difference. There may be a lot of bad people in this world. But good people surround them 1-100. Now, a year later I'm back in my house living the same lifestyle, just with a bigger heart
