You guys went to U.T? That's my dream college! I hope to attend there! I really like your video, and I didn't find out y'all went to U.T. until like the 5th or 6th time watching this :) Love the song too, btw :D
if you read closely, you will see that i said this song DOES relate to God. please don't reply if you haven't read the comment enough to try and post a valid argument that isnt essential.
This is a much better visual rendition of Christ/God/Spirit than the videos that Christian artists put out for their songs. I actually felt a sense of innocence about the images, consistent with Christ--are these Christian teenagers?
the song is not only amazing but the video is spectacular! You might think there is nothing to do with God but just think, if not for Him would they reach seniors? Or would they even get to see each other another day?? I can relate to not only the song but the video as well. Please reconsider your response to this video. StrangerMovie247, i love it!
@ikandle you are right about this song not having anything to do with God, but this can actually relate to God because of the lyrics. OUr youth group at church has done a drama to this song.
I agree with most of the comments in here, and I think Jon and the boys will too. Obviously they love the Lord and want to serve Him and praise Him in their music, but what they don't want is for us to pigeon-hole things so much that we'll scare away others. How do you expect to spread the gospel if it attracts only Christian interest? This video, in my estimation, is very well done. Thanks for sharing.
I couldnt disagree more with the top comment..just cuz its about seniors having fun..Show me in the Bible where it says, there must be images of Jesus only when making videos that have to do with life..theres nothing negative or goes against the teachings of God in this video...I thought it was good and very creative
I don't even know you all but this made me tear up a little. All the great memories of being a senior. All the good times with friends coming to a close because of college and going separate ways as we grow in life
People interpret music however they want to, its a personal opinion, just like whether you like sushi or not. Personally, i hate sushi, and love this song, and think its NOT about god and all that, but some people might take a religious meaning to it. And then again, some might think it's about sushi.
@StrangerMovie247 Just saw a 2011 switchfoot interview and they said they want to send out the message "Life is short, live it well" I think you represented it brilliantly in your video, ignore @MsDRMT, I think switchfoot have a better idea of what they want their music to mean then she does, well done! =)
NOTHING TO DO WITH GOD?! Stop being so ignorant. God is in the trees, He is in a laugh, a jump....God is anywhere there is good and where His people are or even are not. God is sorvereign and over everything because He is GOD. Don't be petty.
I believe that this song is a "song within a song". The chorus seems to come in out of nowhere, a Gorgeous exclamation of pure, energetic love. Such a treat. I have always loved and respected Switchfoot. I even made a "shower" playlist feat. their music. Gets me happy, hoppin' and rockin',SWITCHFOOT is a must for any music library.

Great Job! Shows actual Love in the clips among your friends. Very cool. I actually sung this song to my grandmother over the phone playing the acoustic. Love is the most powerful thing out there in this world!!
I didn't even know switchfoot was a christian band until I read some comments tonight, and I've loved them since I think about 2003. It's not a big deal guys, chill.
I guess the maker of this video is trying to show that youngsters could have fun without doing drugs or any other things not pleasing to God. They love life, enjoys life and share the love of God by showing good examples of leading a clean teenage life. I agree with everyone that you (whoever you are) have a talent in making videos and who knows, could be a great film maker someday. God Bless!

Great job on the video...

This vid makes me sad.. I'm in my senior year now and I know that after this I'm not gonna see my classmates any more, except for maybe at college and then, well...reunions I guess :/
My english teacher saw this and he's making it a project for the senior class now. Your vid is pretty influential and I love it! Great job
You did a wonderful job with this video, but I have to admit it bothers me when people take songs that are about God and put images that have nothing to do with God to them. The song is not really meant to be about seniors having fun.
@MsDRMT Thank you for your comment, but it bothers me when people don't recognize that songs arent going to paint a picture in everyones mind on the same exact topic. Thats whats amazing about music. This was my intake on the song, and for you who say "nothing to do with god to them"? God is very much in this video. I learned at a young age God is always around us even if he is not visible. Sorry you don't see it that way.
This song was made for all Gods people to cherish life, live it through God.. Have fun. It means something different to everyone. Even if it is "seniors having fun".
I absolutely love this video... you did such an awesome job putting this together. I think you would make such an amazing film maker. Reach for the stars!
Gah I've looked all over for the official music vid, and all the stuff people have uploaded of this song is blah...but this video captures a kind of angst, like the song - awesome job! :)

This was beyond beautiful. I'm in my senior year, and it brings me almost to tears to know that all of this will soon be over. Time is short, and this just reminds us how short. Thank you for making this wonderful piece of art. It reminds us that the simple things are best, and to take joy in every moment that surrounds us. This brings me pure happiness. Thank you so much. I'm going to post it to facebook, so I can share my favorite song, and my new favorite video, with everyone I know.
This video is very well done...I like the transitions and the timing. It's cute to see you all having such a good time together. (: Is this video meant to be a documentary of Senior year?
@violetviolin0409 Thanks! and pretty much yes. I had this phase where I wanted to be a film maker. haha so some friends and I made some fake movie trailers with my cheap digital camera which are also on my channel. then with all the videos I had of us from Junior/Senior year, I Made this!
@hawknelsonlover98 everyone has their own meaning for their songs, i'm sure it meant something different for Jon Foreman than it means for you as well! this video shows one meaning you can give to the song, and it's really great I think the way you really feel the emotion... you could make your own video with Your meaning...
You have a gift, this was extremely well done! If the boys of Switchfoot ever see this i'm sure they'll be very proud of you. They should use this for their real video, I've been a fan of Switchfoot for years. Thank you for sharing your memories with the rest of us, it was beautiful and very moving in a positive way. Please make more!
Great video! As an older lady (37) it is sooo refreshing to see "youngsters" having good wholesome fun! Reminds me of good times w/friends on beaches of St. Augustine years ago <333
