  • Awsome look up cole bro show stunt show

  • switchfoot since young!! << :)

  • @dassaswat Christian music is very inspiring. And Switchfoot IS Christian they just they don't show it much in their music so people who don't believe in Jesus (with you attitude I don't think you do) will also enjoy it, so chill ok?

  • i luv this song.

    btw to me, what makes a band good is their intent, lyrics and music can help or hinder that. How ever this song gets pretty high marks in all three categories. GO SWITCH FOOT!

  • Comment removed

  • It IS better than the official. Nice.

  • are those two gay?

  • Shut Up about switchfoot being a christian band, what makes this band good is it's music not religion

  • Great version of my favorite song from one of my all-time favorite band! I'm linking to this video from my blog. Thanks!

  • Even though I really don't get this video I love it and it makes me happy everytime I see it (:

  • this song make me feel so happy and yes you could say awakened. it really brights up my day and makes me relise how gifted god has made so many of the people he has created like switchfoot for example

  • So less views :-(

  • This is very very impressive. Fab!

  • you guys should send this to Jon if you already have not. He's a cool guy, maybe he'll find a way to let you guys edit/produce their next video.

  • exelente video!!!

  • great job bro :)

  • I luv the 'I want to know that my heart's still beating. It's beating... it's beating...I'm bleeding' part of the video. It gave me goosebumps. =) Amazing job! (I thought it was an official video too.)

  • This video is awesome. I don't know if Switchfoot helped make a second video or not, but whoever did make this was good. Great job.

  • One of the best I've seen so far...

    Seriously, some of the home-made music videos I've seen are incredibly crappy...

    Not this! Love it, man!

  • Awsome vid! great song switchfoot rule!

    man u suck! im a total switchfoot fan.

    and that aint' the real band!!. god that pisses me!

  • That definitely is Switchfoot, granted the guy in the suit is not one of the members of switchfoot. This is a switchfoot song, and the video of the band is also switchfoot, the drums even say Switchfoot.

  • えっと・・・日本人初めてかな?

    やっぱswitchfootはいい!サイコー!

  • Thats obviously Martin Place and other streets in Sydney. But that beach is that Terrigal, on the Central Coast? or is that a Northern Sydney beach like Colloroy, Dee Why, Curl Curl?

  • I didn't know that this wasn't the official video until I read the comments!!

    Great job!! It's really really good!

    I fell in love with this song last night when I first heard it at their concert. This video has gotten me even more hooked :D

  • Man this is the best Christian song on the charts.

  • I love the video for the most part. you did a really good job with it, but i thought the whole bleeding heart was a little cheesy. but other than that great job!

  • christian music for the win :) god ftw

  • Incredible. You nailed the song in the most beautiful fan-made music vid I've ever seen. Congrats. :D

  • Absolutely amazing

  • that's a pity one of the guys is not a girl :-D But I still love this video.

  • Well It is Beautiful . how you Made it Everything .. What i actually like the most in what you'v accomplishd is The bleeding heart and this stuning colour .. Its not a red Hot that would some sord of make you get scared lol :)

    anyway .. Its Beautiful and the song is One of my favorites . Still i Préfer ' Dark ' From " terminal " :)

  • dud the guy is soooooo cute!!!!!!

    the blonde the most but they both are!!!!!!

  • this was an amazing video. it really captures the meaning in the song.

  • this really is amazing...where did you film it?

  • in the city in sydney australia & on the beaches..

  • its beautiful...

  • COOL

  • Wow, this is absolutely incredible. I made a music vid of Faust, Midas, and Myself along with a friend (it's here on YouTube) and we were going to make a vid of Awakening, but it would have been NOTHING compared to this...this is incredible. The effects, the plot, the idea of the "subtitles," the scenery, the acting...WOW.

  • Man I love Switchfoot. It's one of very few bands that my kids and I BOTH like, and this video is awesome!!! Reminds me of when I was saved!

  • awesome vid!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! love it! =) 10/10

  • AWSOME! That must have taken a long time to make. Good work.

  • actually we pretty much made the whole thing in a week, only came up with the idea 10 days before the conference it was for..

  • wow, you mean you actually made this yourself? dude that's amazing!! seriously, i always thought it was one of switchfoot's videos! that's how good it is :D

  • yeah i made it..thanks heaps..

  • AWESOME VIDEO!!!

  • what does this song mean?

  • hey, i THINK it means wakin up to Jesus Christ and acceptin Him into your heart, if anybody has ne other theories....?!!!

  • reminds me of "all that i've got" from the used. the concept.

  • Wow, this version rocks. Even though in the original, I like the whole guitar hero thing. But this one was really creative and it was awesome. Good Job.

  • I love it i am a huge switchfoot fan probably the biggest one in utah. This is way better than thge real video

  • loves the bleeding heart...

    cool...

  • As much as I love Switchfoot, this video is so much more true to the song than the original video. The close attention to detail, quality work, and simple yet bold message makes this what it is and that is awesome. I'm sure the guys would be proud. Great job with this!

  • love it dude. the original is no where near as good as this.

  • this video soo good!

  • this is really beautiful

  • I thought it was the original video, great work!

  • WOW...this is really good. I love the bleeding heart. Fantastic job!

  • Personally, I thought this was a much better video than the original like many of you. I was disappointed in the official version - it took a contemplative subject and trivialized it. This had more thought and more originality .

  • 4 thumbs up!

  • I am agreeing with everyone else about it out shining the original! The original was good, too but I wish it would've been a little more like this one..Like, with a better meaning because the song itself has a powerful impact. But, anyways that's just wisdom speaking! Wonderful video!

  • i liek thee part with thee heart "IM BLEEDING IM BLEEDING!!" yeah it twas kool and an awesome idea good job *thumbs up*

  • wait i thought this was switchfoots vid, some ppl just made it?

  • yeah i made it as an intro for a young adults conference we had..i added in the switchfoot clips for fun..

  • cool its awesome :)
