"Falling for the First Time" is a song from the Barenaked Ladies album Maroon. It appeared on their 2001 compilation Disc One: All Their Greatest Hits. It was co-written by the two lead singers of the band, Steven Page and Ed Robertson. In the music video, a security guard at a museum, played by Kevin Hearn's cousin Harland Williams, is watching the camera monitors when they only show the band playing the song, despite efforts by the guard to return the monitors to normal. After they play the song, they can be seen leaving with several pieces of stolen artwork fom the museum, revealing that the video was used to distract the guard.
