Switchfoot: This is Your Life-Music Video

[VarietyMusicLover]

this explains my life so well in front of the PC or playing videogames it's not who i wanted to be i wish i could of been something better it was the hand i was dealt i guess i wish the best for kids that are growing up be who you want to be don't waste it

[ProfPotater]

great mv!!!! cheers for yah!

[xpcharless]

@Hyphen16 you focus more on the video game instead of focusing on Gods word.

[kreechard]

Amazing.. this song even works for all the old f^*cks out there you do the same damn thing.. Kudos }:>

[elyricc]

haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa­aaaaaaa

[buellrer]

You guys this made me cry during the end, when a video touchs the soul that's when you know it's a great video!! Spectacular job!!

[TheTJFish]

Ahhh I'm so ready for Vice Verses!

[springchickn]

2:06 dig the Our Town play poster on the wall!

[TheWorldIsSpherical]

awesome video....but i always think its funny when you see christmas decorations in the backround of a depressing scene

[entity1891]

good stuff

[Beccafuzzfuzz]

This is good. A better grade would be an "A+"

[Winner123ABC]

[Switchfootrox4ever]

nice vid, although it's a bit confusing, cuz I wasn't sure if the guy was supposed to be different people or the same person...

[tarminatir]

supposed to be the same guy

[spiggyo]

Great job of expressing the message of the song!!! Although the drama doesn't match the crescendo of the song at the end. I kept expecting him to start running. Good job overall though!

[ZoliArianaJewl]

hey ian & zach! you guys rock :)

[1313isabella1313]

veido ... stupid ... song ... good

[jwebb232]

Really good song and really good video ... However, I wasn't able to see what was going on outside ... Next time use a back light or infrared or something to that extent.

[daisyroven2011]

I though the video was very good. Good Job Guys!!

[KareemCarlos]

i like the song but i hate the video its the stupidest thing i've ever seen in my life

[ageofpoo]

5 stars! great job!

Give God the glory every single day!

[jstrio31]

wow!!! nice job guys! theis is my fav. song eva' and u just made it better!!!!!

[grisegut]

wtf the music video was just confusing and not very consistant, but ok

[countryisthelife]

terrible music video, but a great song

[jesusfreak2164]

just curious what were you drinking instead of beer? Cocacola in a bottle or water?

[christiancowgirl13]

I know that song too!!

[vhernie27tube]

k.m....hintayin kita ha...mahal kita!!!

[weeks87]

funny arguments ;)

video was alright, but didn't really catch it's meaning until i read your comment..how is it he is regretting he something he did when he was young, when he is still young.

[jeannie72882]

glad you got an A nice job

[caticati12]

I know that song!!!

[caticati12]

Well I phrased that badly lol whoopsie

[cloudwindgate]

Well thank-you. But pray for the fool who thinks they know what path is right for ME! (im not talking of you) Believe it or not i pray every night lol

[ZachAttack26138]

its all good. thanks :)

[ZachAttack26138]

lol. pay closer attention to the video. we weren't portraying playing video games as part of a bad life. its actually part of his flashback of how his life used to be so good; like when he used to hang out with friends and play video games. seriously, go back and watch it over and itll make more sense.

[devinarney]

video seemed kinda cheesy? was this an official one? btw please stop it with the fighting and the bitching. just enjoy the song! :P

[cloudwindgate]

hahaha you yourself are blind you know no truth you are the fool

[agentcopper123]

3:17 reminds me of KKK

[SoraMatt]

Dude, even christian bands have songs, like this one, that can be applied to just everyday scenarios. It's not about god or no god, it's just about life the way we are. Are we who we want to be?

[caticati12]

This is true. Switchfoot doesn't like being labled as a Christian band since they want to reach more than Christian people with their music and plus, it is like discluding people who aren't Christian telling them "No you can't listen to that, this is our thing" when it really isn't. Does that make sense to anybody?

[Shafaet09]

Not bad but i expected the real video

[cloudwindgate]

One day you die and begin a new journey to heaven? maybe or maybe to the energy of the world and your born anew

The bible is false i believe only for the fact it was written and translated by us man and the only thing you realy need is to be good, kind , and caring person thats what every religion is about

lol too long

[lebiram961]

wrong. you've got it all wrong.

and if that's what you're choosing to hold on to, then good luck. 'cuz ur going to need it.

[cloudwindgate]

Who r u to decide

i need no luck or prays from ethier of you

The path i walk is fine

[lebiram961]

I'm nobody, but God is someone and I don't care if you don't want me to pray for you, I am going to anyway. and who r u to decide who I pray about?

[cloudwindgate]

I'm not telling you what to pray for i just think its foolish that your going to pray for me because i dont fellow your beliefs. I dont think that damns me

[cloudwindgate]

lol why is there a god fight here. WTF in the end it dosen't matter because before god can kill all of you i will :D Raito your not talking about religion your talking about a moron And what if it was magic by elves i would be ok with that idk why people fight over this stupid crap because even after your still going to think what you thought before this.

The video is pretty good i think you could have done better but still good

[shakispanishchic2]

MAN! just watch the video!!!!!!!!!!!!! ARGH UR ALL ANNOYING ME!

[MCPoidog]

JESUS FTW!!!

[Idonottellmyrealname]

bebelosu,daca tot esti asa convins ca totul e doar "sories and bullsht",da-mi un motiv pentru care crezi ca e asa.

[jardinebrian]

What amazes me is how upset people get about us talking about our God. He's our God. We can talk as much about Him as we want. If it's a story book (The Bible), it's the most astounding, heart-changing, healing, powerful book that's ever been written. It's been around for thousands of years. Be realistic, you say? I say be ready. He's coming. The signs are showing each and every day. Open your eyes.

[bebelosu]

dude .. I don`t think that I`m the one who needs to open his eyes .. I`ve opened them long time ago ..

[nnamdo64]

97% of you wont repost this:

when jesus died he was thinking of you

if you care repost this,watch what god will do

96% of teens wont stand up for God....copy and paste if ur one of the 4% who will

[sonkissed101]

this vid was really good i love the song. it just show me that it's my life and i'm the one who has control but i can't do it alone i need God by my side and i love the messange to the vid and the song...good job

[chibiMcdreamy]

Aww, very well made. Maybe a little too cliche? But still good. You got an appropriate grade for your work. :)

[bebelosu]

wake up dude .. there is no god .. it`s all stories and bullshit .. read more and see for yourself .. don`t decide your whol life after one book only .. be realistic

[Supaman797]

Why so narrow minded?

[bebelosu]

sunt o multime de documentare care explica faptul ca religia din ziua de azi este de fapt o copie dupa alte credinte egiptene, orientale, si aztece, care sunt de peste 10.000 de ani mai vechi ca si religia care e azi .. asta ar fi unul din motive .. daca ti se pare de necrezut iti recomad sa te documentezi ..vizioneaza daca vrei seria de documentare Zeitgeist si Religulous ..

[dashit451]

but what if there is how does anyone actually know if you try to follow the ways of jesus you will become a better person

[bebelosu]

dude I don`t know why you think I need to become a better person ... I`m happy the way I am ... If you think that if I don`t belive in god and I`m not in any religious cult or something that has to deal with god, you think that I`m an antichrist or I`m part of some anti god cult .. you`re wrong dude .. I`m as normal as cand be and verry happy with the way I am.

[ItsJami]

Hes at home why is he drinking from a paper bag??

[GiannaFr3Shh69]

Maybe to make it clear he was drinking alcohol.

[ItsJami]

Ya I guess. I just figured they would buy a bottle of something.

[MysteriousWonders]

its in the bag genius

[ItsJami]

youve missed my point

[tightsharkyj]

good 1

[mike5549]

good song!!!

[MCmirrr]

i don't really understand the story, but it looks pretty proffessional! good choice of the song ;)

[KaizerHiwatari]

Their really isn't a story, just that the boy drinking from the paper bag looks back at his past then at his life now and is asking himself "Is this who I wanna be?"

[freepizza91]

the don't close ur eyes part was cute haha

[igluchick]

I wish they would come to the UK already

[gr8fun4u2013]

nice choice of song.. =)

[Lovemusic825]

wow nice job

[kisscuddlefishy]

i love it <3 a lot a lot

[soriku123456789]

wtf happen there was a dude? what tell me please

[LastXx7xx]

i dont know why but this song usually makes me want to cry ... i think its over my ex .......its such a great song

[greeneyes2491]

how did you get an A on this? lol

[AruMachi]

damn... i luv this song!!!!

remind me in my good all college days!!!

THX alot....

[HeartKevinHeart]

i love this song - switchfoot is the best - awesome

[SammyBongo1]

Good Job Guyz...

Don't mind the HATERZ comment under me... You did good...

[ikillreid]

I think the ending should have been better. This song is supposed to be inspiratonal. I kind of expected the actor to go to an AA meeting, or rip off his tuque and change his life by throwing down the booze or something. I dunno... something that gives closure and inspiration though. The door opening at the end might suggest he's getting help.. but it's not very explicit, and rather anti-climactic.

[MrGrimMonk]

the video is not about alcoholicism....

[ikillreid]

Never said it was, did I? Also, learn to spell the word you are trying to accuse my post to be about... like wow, come on.

[Xman885]

I didn't watch the video because the intro was too long and I lost interest. =(

[jultct1]

I' ve gotta say, this is lyk the coolest home-made video ever.. suits the music plus the part starting at 2:52 is sweet..!! cool vid nice song!!

[scarface2427]

i love how hes drinking and hes got his t shirt tucked into blue jeans and is wearing a tobogan haha but i do love this song it says alot

[badangel2000us]

Good song...crappy video! lol

[massikinz101]

I luv this song. we play it n youth all the time it is amazingg!! & julnelle i agree with u she did a amazing job on this video.

[julnelle]

camera work nicely done

[MustangBoy121]

amazing work you two, that was well worth the grade you got, and more. truly a wonderful song, and i'd say you did a great job at representing it

[newcastlefan1994]

at 2.42 wouldent it be funy if some1opened the door lol its a good song apart from the start being a bit slo id rate 9/10

[singin4him4ever]

You guys did awesome. I give it a 10. :) You deserve your grade.

[Greyes]

what you talking about?!

he says WHO not SURE! o.O

[cearelkiller]

eh it was ok i would rate 3/10

[00mundercover]

started a little slow but overall nice job. captured the song good

[thecelticmessiah]

this is your life, are you who you wanna be

[crazy4mushrooms]

Lovely video! You guys deserved your grade! Good job!

[orangesandmilk101]

all right, im feelin this :) good job

[Jumpi95]

This song, for some odd reason, makes me cry every time I hear it.

[nickm70rs]

gay

[bkc122179]

One of the best bass lines, especially through the second chorus

[collemaurice]

And you shoulda shortened your intro :P 50 seconds to say who was presenting the video almost made me leave :P (N)

[collemaurice]

I think it was too slow earlier in the video...more movement during the phone call would have been better, and I thought the drunken walk was unnecessary. I liked the flashback part. I think him walking to the door at the end would have been much more effective if we knew something about the person whose house he was going to. I'd give it 7/10

[rockinloud56]

if only it were that easy man...

[Sunkist2k8]

you were on the computer then you were on the phone then you had a drink then you went outside for abit and came home :S:S:S:S ooooh biggie.

[rockinloud56]

this video describes my life 100%... actually made me tear up a little... good job 5/5

[musicandorlando]

[greeneyes2491]

[SithLordNergel]

Well made video! Over all 4*, the lighting could have been a bit better....But it's hard to have good lighting at night, or in a dark setting! You should make more music videos! ^_^

[1993MCSILVA]

perfeita

[Lightcloud15]

I am A Producer I haven't put any work on Youtube yet but I think that was a 4* Didn't like the lighting the timing was good the song was the best descision you made.

[GonzagaDawg]

[dupeditten]

Omgaaad. BAD ACTING! get a life.

[MARINEx22]

fuck u... I bet u couldnt do any better

[dupeditten]

I am an actor. So yes, I could do better ;)

[NewfDraggie]

Do it then.

[tearitrightup]

Ya, and I'm Emma Watson.

Get a life.

[Silence6061]

That really hit me, truly.

[ssizzle7]

[SSweetAngel]

great job.

very nice vid.

[saabdude67]

That was pretty cool man!

-Cody

[XPyromaniacXDestinyX]

Awesome job on your video. No wonder you got an A.

[ZeroTHero7]

that dood defines me

[camcam443]

My one friend has a problem she drinks and smokes any advice to help her??

[NZPierre]

The drinking and smoking are the symptoms - she needs to reconise what the real problem is....

[sowhatup22]

some people have a problem. others do it cuzthey think its fun. if its the problem i agree with the other guy. if she does it cuz its fun then show her that she can hav fun without drinking. and also never hang out with her if she is or has been drinking/smoking.

[elmstfreddie]

I respect that you care but I don't think youtube comment sections are the right place for advice this serious...

[TonyVRLT17]

lol ture

[Adamanger3011]

I think in all fairness, there's a case of needing to be there for her, oftentimes drink problems rise from wanting to numb stuff and feeling isolated, so show her she has options. In the same way, like sowhatup22 said, show her she can have fun without drinking. But yeah, in my experience it's a bit of an isolation thing, feeling like everything is a dead end. Just don't go and cut her off from company, that'll do the opposite of help. God bless x.x.x

[Frempin]

great song, cut the into by about all of it.

umm, why is the bottle in a bag if he is at his house?

[sowhatup22]

cuz he wasnt really drinking?

[Midnightfire201]

It took me forever to find this song I LUV THIS SONG

[Midnightfire201]

but I realy don't care for the video

[Avollaj]

I know what you mean it might have takken me years lol

[elmex77rey]

its a good vidio

[pokabeb]

the begining of this song sounds like the intro of a nin's song. nothing bad just saying.

[Jada07Escamilla]

Great VIDEO!! Love it!!

[kljrms]

nice i would imagine u guys got a A on it

[BizMan1]

[5whitsoftball5]

GOOD JOB

[Zombien20]
