"Hope" is a song by Canadian rock band Our Lady Peace. It was the third single released from their debut 1994 album, Naveed .
When first being recorded, the song was titled "Sunflower" and had a psychedelic style, and, according to Jeremy Taggart, a Police vibe out of the bridge. [2]
The music video for the song shows the band playing in a smoky bar. It switches back and forth to a woman in a sunflower field who seems lost. It shows her and another man doing various unusual things.

The Kurzweil K250 keyboard, one of his inventions, was utilized throughout the recording of the album.
