I am in love with this song, after it was in the movie A Walk To Remember, I cannot stop listening to it. It's been a favorite for years, because of that movie. Not only was the movie great, but there were at least three Switchfoot songs in it, and more on the soundtrack, and they made it even better. I LOVE SWITCHFOOT! :)
"The album is named after Willis Chin, a good friend of the members of Switchfoot. The album jacket of The Legend of Chin is covered with pictures of Willis. Willis Chin can also be seen in Switchfoot's DVD Switchfootage, as well as a number of Switchfoot's music videos, like "New Way To Be Human"."
@CiciLioness The original name of their band was Chin Up. I don't know it that's why they called the album Legend of the Chin but it's at least interesting.
Their original band was called "Chin Up" so it was a tribute to their old band since it was their first album.

@Clues4Rosemary I'm pretty sure that Legend of Chin was dedicated to their best friend Willis Chin, though I'm not completely positive

Not sure, I assume that Chin is the name of a boy that they wrote a song about.

I believe Chin was one of Switchfoot's good friends in high school.
