[TenthaveFan316]

Vice Verses exploded my brain with awesomeness!!!!!!!!

[IzFORshiz719]

@stgredfang So what? It doesn't matter if you're a christian. What's wrong from looking at it from a nonchristian view? I'm a christian. But I agree with @Pareod375 . There's more to the song. Yes, it has its christian meaning. But there's also deeper meanings within it.

[glenmoregipa]

praise God

[Pareod375]

@glenmoregipa I was thinking "Hey this sounds like something some christian would listen to, something about not belonging on this Earth but in Heaven" if i interpreted your comment right that is. But hey, there's more to this song than that, so listen again with an nonreligious bias. Just a suggestion.

[stgredfang]

@Pareod375 it obviously says ill carry a cross and a song where i dont belong

[Pareod375]

@stgredfang I never said it wasn't christian, just saying there's more to it. I loved Switchfoot before I knew they were christian because their music was awesome (: I don't really care what genre they are or what they stand for but their music is still awesome

[theviolentviolet1]

@Pareod375 I agree. Im not even Christian but I love and apreciate the meaning of this song. Glad to see other people can see past labels :) Spirituality does not belong to one religion.

[YGregorovich]

@theviolentviolet1 Christianity isn't a religion. =P

[theviolentviolet1]

@YGregorovich I say christian meaning any christian ideoligy based religion. Such as baptist, methodist, etc. or any other organized religious groups. Although I do think it's great that some people find support for their spirituality in such systems.

[MissSavala2010]

@babyfacedx or matthewflores...the song you are looking for, is it 'paradigm' by alltogetherseperate...this is one of my favz!...amazing lyricz!

[dmag1c1an]

man been years since i listen to this song such sweet memorys

[SlurpMyDonuts]

If this song was a turtle, It would be a good turtle.

[ghostsoul21]

this is one of the undiscovered beauties of this world. it really should be on everyones ipod. go switchfoot!

[xbabyfacedx]

This isn't the song I was after :/ Guys I need help. I'm looking for a song sang by either Switchfoot or a band like Switchfoot, and its either called 'beautiful.. (something)' or it just says it somewhere in the song. I originally type 'Switchfoot - beautiful breakdown' so I think it's something like that, or says something like that in it.. If you know it, or have anything that springs to mind, please tell me!!

[matthewflores]

@xbabyfacedx What did the chorus sound like? Do you remember any lyrics?

[xbabyfacedx]

@matthewflores All I know is it says beautiful.... something in it. It's a band, not too rock like, bit calm, I have a feeling it will be kind of uplifting, the lyrics are about life, I think. Meaningful lyrics. Should be a band I know or like so, switchfoot, evermore or someone like that, calm rock band. I think it might be a band I have forgotten about, as in one I love but haven't listened to in awhile. I'm cluesless :S

[xbabyfacedx]

@matthewflores it might even just say 'beauty of *something*' or it might not even beautiful in it at all..... :/ not much help I know.

[shosh3640]

@xbabyfacedx it could be the beautiful side of somewhere by the wallflowers

[matthewflores]

@xbabyfacedx More than fine? Your love is a song? that might be it. It goes ohh your love is a symphony, all around me, running through me....maybe. Is an older song?

[xbabyfacedx]

@matthewflores y'no after I listened to this song I clicked on more than fine, and it could be that because I do like that song but I think it's something else because it didn't make me go 'OMG THAT'S IT!'. I'll look the others up now.

[xbabyfacedx]

@matthewflores What's running through me and all around me sung by? switchfoot? I can't find them. And it's not your love is a song. Also yeah it will be old, well not old old but a few years.

[matthewflores]

@xbabyfacedx No, those aren't songs. Those are the lyrics to Your Love Is a Song.

Is it a slow song or a fast song?

[xbabyfacedx]

@matthewflores Oh haha, No it's not that. I think it starts of slow and builds up a bit at the courus then slows back down, like most songs, I'm not sure. I really don't think I'm gunna be able to get it because I really don't know anything about it :/

[matthewflores]

@xbabyfacedx I'll try and find it for you. (:

[xbabyfacedx]

@matthewflores Good luck haha. I'd be amazed if u wer to find the song going on the little I can give u about it.

[matthewflores]

@xbabyfacedx I'll try and amaze you! haha.(:

[xbabyfacedx]

@matthewflores DUDE! I FOUND IT! I FOUND THE SONG! it's 'on fire' LOL. I clicked on it to get to Switchfoot - meant to live, and I was like, wait a second, I know this song! Haha. Just thought I would let you know! :D

[kataangluv100]

Jesus forever reigns. I would love these guys to come to Acquire the FIre, get all the youth/adults/kids fired up for God! <3

[gloinstrong]

Half of the words in this song come straight from the Bible. Jesus Christ lives.

[lovemeansJesus]

Amazing metaphors. Thank you for sharing.

[JarochaGirl]

yeah i dont belong here!!

[gloinstrong]

It isn't Narnia, you know," sobbed Lucy. "It's you. We shan't meet you there. And how can we live, never meeting you?"

"But you shall meet me, dear one," said Aslan.

"Are — are you there too, Sir?" said Edmund.

"I am," said Aslan. "But there I have another name. You must learn to know me by that name. This was the very reason why you were brought to Narnia, that by knowing me here for a little, you may know me better there."

[gloinstrong]

I can't wait till we can Sprint at 30 mph on foot, and never get tired. That is heaven.

[shivani301989]

this song makes me crazzyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy <3

[Kumomoto]

I discern some Bob Dylan influences...sorta reminds me of "Like a Rolling Stone"

[SwitchFootSongsNMore]

don't go into the COMPANY CAR and look at my BULLET SOUL and get TWENTY FOUR reasons why i'm saying this and set yourself FREE for life and ALWAYS love god before you go to THE BLUES

[isadorecullen]

My friend took me to frontier City yesterday with her church.. when went to there concert there they where AWESOME.. It was the first time i listen to them <3

[Rocketdog731]

@isadorecullen Awesome I went to Frontier City too! That was a great concert, I'm glad you got the chance to go!

[ShaggyPker]

Brings back memories. :)

[MrMunchy01]

I think I broke the replay button

[AmericanBullet55]

This song... Is exactly how I feel right now.

[rainbowsarehot1]

Im goin to a concert!! :) for free 

[hbomb619]

@rainbowsarehot1 let me guess..the one in encinitas right?

[staceychester]

I don't belong here too ;)

[miraclez101]

God created us so that after this life we could live another one 1000 times better with him. So it really is a beautiful letdown the day you know that the riche this word have to offer you will never do..... :)

[kenming96]

world ending soon or not? switchfoot made me assured that i dont have to be afraid of anything.

[ChickaAR]

omg i love this band , this is first time listening

and i already LOVE IT ,

[AxisWolfheart]

Nice Vid (:

Awesome song

[jose123456789535]

You rock switchfoot!!

[JellyBellyDeli]

It's about dying to yourself and letting go of the worldly things. "It was a beautiful letdown the day I knew that the riches this world had to offer me would never do" means that it's awesome when we realize that we're really not meant for this world, how we don't belong here, but in with God.

[Jona7Fer]

@JellyBellyDeli Nice username, haha :)

[Hootshot112]

I love this song. I always thought it was about suicide

[yoyoyo119]

@Hootshot112 it is in a sense. but you dont have to die to let go.

[syllarchie]

How could someone possibly dislike a Switchfoot song?

[renevatio1732]

I love Switchfoot's music. John Foreman is such a great writer!

[ericdeaton19]

let my foolish pride FOREVER let me down!!!!!!!!!!

[caylay2010]

my favorite line..." Painfully uncool the church of the drop outs, the losers, the sinners, the failures and the fools" i cant get over how awesome that line is

[wegotorangeomg]

SWITCHFOOT JUST WON A GRAMMY!!! Like to spread the word!

[babygurll7]

1 person dislikes this???????

[nrgarcia1071]

@babygurll7 yea that was me. the lyrics are good but i think this song is injustice to switchfoot. :\

[babygurll7]

@nrgarcia1071 ohh I see.. understandable I guess lol

[SkoalBoy93]

ok guys i was at a party listening to music via youtube hooked through the speekers and i dont know who all was under my name.... I apolagize about the inconveniance

[01DragonWriter]

@SkoalBoy93 you apolagize 2 months later what does that say...

[EliaMitzell]

OM holy God.. I luv this song <3 I love the part that says:

"In a world of bitter pain, and bitter doubt, I was trying so hard to fit in..

Until I found out.. I don't belong here"

[Chloey0789]

@EliaMitzell Amen to that! <3

[kaylabee84]
