Sorry to all the good people here... but I have to say that i FUCKING love Jon and Switchfoot. They're my heroes. As a Christian and music-loving human-being, you just feel so connected to Jon's music, the lyrics and his thinking about the world. There's so much love that reaches you even when you see him in this video. I mean, I live in Germany and I am far, far away from him and the band but feel so close to them.
I mean, I love Green Day a lot, too, and you do as well (took a peek on your side). Why should I listen to Billie Joe screaming 'Fuck America' and then refuse to say fuck as well? Has always something to do with your conditions and the place you've been growin up. and maybe I was growing up in a fuckin ghetto and I learned to live with God, though? There's nothing wrong with it. So don't call me a hypocrite. ;)
@butterflypiano well i was kidding. but i mean billie joe isnt a christian. If he was then he woudnlt be screaming the f word. if you are a christian then there is something wrong with saying the f word. since God did say do not curse. And we should obey God. We should try our hardest to not sin but we are not perfect so its not that bad if u slip a curse word. Just try your best to be a good christian.
@poobaba2 I often thought about that.But I've never been ashamed to say what im thinkin.I definitely don't think it's a sin.One thing hasn't to do anything with the other thing. Don't wanna blame you, really, but I guess it's rather a sin to call me a hypocrite.You don't me at all, you know? I think it's a bit sad that you're convicting me not to be a Christian just because of my way of talking.It's a bit ridiculous to me. I love God, music + I always did my own thing.But good commentary indeed.
The lead singer and bassist are my nephews...They're great guys...they just struggle with substance abuse and I remember he wrote this song about just that. I found some cocaine in his apartment over Memorial day when the family got together...I pray every night that he'd give it up.
@theoldwillow65 no! you're lying! cocaine in JON's apartment? are you fuckin nuts?
why should i believe you that you're the uncle of Jon and Tim? I mean, a real uncle wouldn't write on youtube: My Christian nephew's takin fucking drugs, so that the whole world could read it.
i cannot say how angry I am. you suck man! i'm so angry!
why the hell should jon take drugs? He has got his believe to God, he has got his music, his heart, his fans and his friends.
how the frig is playing that?? I want to know how to play this song so bad, but all of the tabs have it just as boring old open chords. Whaterver he is playing is soo cool. Does any one know how he does it or do I have to friggin figure it out myself?
This is such an inspiring song. I love how Jon Foreman is able to write such thought-provoking music. And it's cool that he played someone else's guitar.
By the way, I posted the only piano cover of "Your Love Is Strong" on Youtube. I would really appreciate if you checked it out, if you have some time.
WOW thats so cool! glad you got to meet them, so did i, in San diego a few weeks ago i met them at their concert and at the bro-am and got to finish jon's funnel cake he gave me. and i got one of their guitar picks. they are such awesome chill dudes! =)
i looooove switchfoot and i am absolutely in love with this song. I WANT TO MEET THEM. haha. i wish i could play it on guitar but i fail epicly at guitar.
I don't think this is ruining the song. This was after the concert and he and his fans were just having fun. This isn't really for performance. I mean, I don't really like hearing this, but if I were there the moment this event took place, I would've enjoyed it a lot ^^
someone like jon is a real star for me. Someone howe cars about his fans and witsh woud explain all his song's to you if you ask hime someone howe didnt only raid to become fameus , someone howe raid to feel a laife ore to showe that he is human to that a realy grade Human a real star for me.
thanx man for making this video coz it helps me a lot...thank you so much. Without this video, i could'nt be able to play this amazing song exactly the way Jon Foreman did in this video. Hope u have an acoustic i mean a live solo video of JOn playing "YOU".

dude that is so awesome!!! i was at a concert in knoxville tn and i almost stayed after and waited for them ... but i was so tired i went home and slept... kool vid!
It's funny, we played this song about two months ago, and it completely fell apart. The funny thing is, this song is all about screwing up.
