The video will also air exclusively on MTV Hits. The track comes from the upcoming album “Body of War: Songs That Inspired An Iraq War Veteran.” Tomas Young (http://think.mtv.com/profile/tommy34), the inspiration behind this video, was shot and paralyzed from the chest down after serving less than a week in Iraq. Tomas personally selected each of the tracks on the album, including Eddie Vedder’s live version of “No More” – which was specially written for the “Body of War” Documentary.

“Body of War” is a heart-wrenching and inspiring documentary that is being released on the eve of the 5th anniversary of the war in Iraq. Produced by Phil Donahue and Ellen Spiro, this award winning 2008 documentary “serves as a personal soundtrack for Iraq,” says Young. The songs selected for “Body of War: Songs That Inspired an Iraq War Veteran,” including “No More,” inspired and motivated Tomas.
