Great song :) But who do they mean in the 1st verse "Fumbling his confidence and wond'ring why the world has passed him by, hoping that he's meant for more than arguments and failed attempts to fly, fly"? Spiderman??

[TigerPawPrints]

yEAH, & WHEN HE SAYS 'sCREAMS FOR 2ND LIFE' fUCK ALL THAT VIRTUAL BULLSHIT CRAP...IT MEANS SOOOOOO MUCH MORE......WE WERE MEANT FOR SOOOOOOO MUCH MORE THAN VIRTUAL BULLSHIT !

[StealthSoldiers]

whats the point of having hope?

well lets see, we are here...

we are alive

but believing in that there is come guy watching us from the sky is BS

if there is a god, then why would we still have human suffering in the world, why would god destroy our earth with things like Tsunami's and Volcanic eruptions

if anything, worship the damn sun, it gives us all we need and asks for nothing in return. but God, he asks that u dont break rules and believe. and if we dont we suffer for eternity.

[Da1stAssassin]

UUUHHHHH??? All that bad stuff isn't God. It's the devil. And right now with the statement you just made the devil is winning you over. In the bible it says the devil wants to seek kill and destroy.

does that answer any questions?

[gnr4everSlash]

listen to da1st, btw i this the right place to ask? God created the sun to.

[StealthSoldiers]

would you like to tell me how this "God" made the hottest star in our universe....

Science > Religion

no "God" made anything in this world

[hardyz4everjeffmatt]

i love this song.

[VancouverCanucks08]

why the fuck do u bastards always have to bring up your stupid religon shit in every switchfoot video? its so fuckin annoying. let us non christians enjoy the damn songs. your fucking mercenary pieces of crap. go to hell.

[jay1735]

this is a song to get pump up too man

[IpCrackle]

This video is SO awesome! Switchfoot's my favorite band!!!

But if you like this kind of rock, and... spiderman, than you should check out "Hero" from the first movie. Good song too!

[Halokiller6]

Love this song great video.

[taytayola11]

is this video meant to have spiderman in it?

yeah. :D I LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS SONG!!!!!!!!!!

WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­OO!!!!!!!!!!

[kenshinHimura116]

o yea, if u dont believe in a god then wats the point of having hope?

[firepaw54]

Spiderman sucs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­

[ChristianJensen]

Like you suck , cause you waste your time writing things nobody actually wanna hear . Nobody really gives a fuck , what you think ...

[marblechamp]

@ChristianJensen hey we Christians don't use profanity

[NorthMarYouthgroup]

awesome song awesome band awesome movie

[xdreamingoutloud]

Geez, I haven't wached this in ... Forever!!!

<3

Still love it!

[sOupira]

YEAH♥

[kenshinHimura116]

y does it matter its a kick ass song isnt it? so ppl get over it! freedom of religion!

[flamegirl886]

I actually agree with xXzolooXz . Why do we have to bring religion into music? switchfoot is a hot band ppl. why fight over wt religion the are? im pretty sure they wouldnt like it if they found out ppl on youtube were fighting over their religion and not enjoying their music. and i dont get why ppl have to start saying things like "stfu" to the ppl(such as myself)for standing up for wt we beleive in is right. bringing religion into music is messed up. so if u do, shove a sock in it

[chiorina]

I gotta confess something here. 11/10 of my MP3 player is actually Switchfoot songs.

[DeathsMercy6]

Xx...dude if you think we are messin' with our religion then maybe you should look at your fuck head comments..im seriously sick of your stupid shit comments

[xXzolooXz]

fuck christians you all suck major donkey dick! all you do is start fights about religion on youtube then yell at us when we say stfu. we dont care if there a christian rock band its just usic, so go fuck yourselfs.

[switchfootroxs]

Hey look man dont clump christians into one big group. Switchfoot is a good band and I agree you dont have to be christian to relate to what they are singing about. So just relax.

[SwitchfootR0CKS]

dude im a christian

I agree switchfoot is a GREAT band(see my username)

its true you dont have to be christian to relate to what they're singing about, but in some of the songs there is some sort of message you can only catch from a biblical point of view.

But anyway, its true, the band members ARE christian, but Jon Foreman(lead singer) once said : "We're christians in faith, but our music is for everyone".

So there, not looking for an argument, just exposing my pont of view:)

[switchfootroxs]

I agree with you it just bothers me when people get angry about such a little thing.

we have the same username...kind of :)

[kenshinHimura116]

id laugh my ass of if u hated switchfoot

[enajevon]

Its not all about religion. Its just about making good music. Being a "Christian rock band" is just a label. Its what you do that makes all the difference.

[dawarpman]

haha, dude. I love you and Jesus love you to! :D

[thelvl126]

im a christian and i take major offence to that u dickweed

[XragekingX]

Hey keep ur insults to urself(xXzolooXz)

Switchfoot can choose to be christian

[XragekingX]

Hey keep ur insults to urself(xXzolooXz)

Switchfoot can choose to be christian

[STARKY266231]

@XragekingX to be honest who cares what they are as long as they sound good which they DO

[kenshinHimura116]

btw u hypacrit u just started a fight rotflmao

[ICETitan92]

u no wut i think? I think people are so jealous of christian bands because they produce good music...alot of songs u hear are christian-based and nothing can change the fact....so stfu and enjoy the song

[theDyrectawr]

why argue if they are a christian rock band?

[LegendKiller1019]

ya who cares what they are,they are awesome,stop labeling and listen.

[stupidfunny6595]

yea switchfoot is a christian rock band.

look it up

[srlNjeska]

theing!!

badass song!!!

[Sadamnegro]

Jesus died on the Cross to take the punishment we deserved for our sins so that if we ask him to forgive of our sins we will be forgiven and reign eternally in heaven with him after our death in this life.

[abs1219]

no

jesus is a popular spanish name :)

[DevilsCruelty]

dnt preach ur BS in here plz!! Jesus died because the Jews picked some1 else to save instead of him.

[theDyrectawr]

are you muslim?

[DevilsCruelty]

no im athiest is dont believe everything i read

[ChristianJensen]

I pity you . Then you must not believe in much ... you have no faith in almost everything . You don't believe anything . I'm pretty sure I read somewhere , that for an ordinary person, 80% what we learn in life , comes through reading ... I'm sorry man ...

[Dryice1988]

Seriously, go pity yourself, if i dont belive in any gods that my choice, gods are idols (false gods, look it up) they are nothing more than somthing made up by Spike Lee on Weed.

[ChristianJensen]

whatever you need to believe . But you're right , it is your own choice .

- But just a little aside-question ... what do you then believe happens to you after you die ?

[kenshinHimura116]

may u burn in hell

[Pivotman61]

@Dryice1988 learn to keep false opinions to yourself -_-

[2o9sfinest]

@Dryice1988 oh forgive every religion. we don't know what a dictionary is. gods may be idols, but God isn't. He is your Father, as He is mine.

[kadel300]

@2o9sfinest show me proof he exists.. indisputable proof...

[2o9sfinest]

@kadel300 4 years ago my uncle was a bouncer at a club and he was shot. the bullet hit right above his belly button and when it hit, it hit 6 internal organs. at the scene the paramedics declared him dead. minutes later they discovered a pulse, so naturally they rushed him to a hospital. after the doctors pulled most of the bullet fragments out of him, they said he most likely will not make it. they gave him a less than 5% chance to live. he is alive today, and he made a full recovery.

[kadel300]

@2o9sfinest I'm truly sorry to hear that happened to your uncle. That proves that great things can happen to good people and that perhaps miracles can happen.. that's not proof of a god. Sorry. You're dealing with someone who believes in science(no NOT scientology), and facts and proof. I'm glad your uncle is okay.

[2o9sfinest]

@kadel300 i believe in science too. its easy to believe both

[2o9sfinest]

@kadel300 that is a true story. thanks to God

[STARKY266231]

@2o9sfinest It wasn't god that saved him it was the fantastic doctors, just a reality check god is a fictional being that was made to make people not fear death.

[2o9sfinest]

@STARKY266231 we could argue about this

[shuffler1239]

@Dryice1988 if u dun believe in gods then what made earth?what made us?WHAT MADE ANIMALS N INSECTS?

[Smilingpiranha]

@shuffler1239 erm....the big bang and evolution

[hearmepeeps]

@Smilingpiranha and what made the big bang? i mean the theory is that the universe existed in a "hot, dense state", but what put it there. i'm not implying god did, i merely want to point out how your theory is just flawed as you think his is.

[Smilingpiranha]

@hearmepeeps yeah, I see where you're coming from, and hey if I knew what made the big bang I think I might not only be richer than I am now, but also not commenting on stuff on youtube :)

[hearmepeeps]

@Smilingpiranha haha wow :) thanks for not turning into a troll like the rest of youtube would have

[Smilingpiranha]

@hearmepeeps lol no problem mate, there are some decent people out and about on youtube, just takes a bit to find them :P

[SwedePelle]

@shuffler1239 try to start going to school dude, but if you go to a disgusting redneck school in america you are lost! go to a normal school where they have science for example and you will learn how everything happend! Evolution of the apes that made them more human, particles in the ground grew up and became insects etc!

[ShankU1292]

@SwedePelle But it makes you think. He believes what he reads in the bible to be fact. You read your science book says and believe it to be fact. They're not really so different. They both try to explain "why?"

p.s. Try not to act like a complete ass by telling him he's an uneducated redneck. Keep your mind open bro. From your comment you sound like an uneducated prick, which is most likely not the case in real life.

[SwedePelle]

@ShankU1292 well bro first things first i apreciate your comment becouse frankly you are taking this really civilized and that made me respect you, so second part you'r right at some part BUT science's has more evidence of how everything happend, they have scientists working daily with the " start" and i get your point you'r kinda atheists/believer? what i mean with that is that you perhaps believe in both and you should if you wanna! but yeah you get my point? Thank you for beeing respectfull!

[ShankU1292]

@SwedePelle Its all good man. I'm a christian but i accept science. You don't have to be an atheist to believe in science. It's just that most atheists do.

[SwedePelle]

@ShankU1292 yeah i hear you, thank you for this chat we had and have a nice and happy life! :)

[STARKY266231]

@ChristianJensen Religion = WAR

[HopeinLuke1910]

@STARKY266231 Humans = WAR

[STARKY266231]

@HopeinLuke1910 Correction GOVERNMENT = WAR

[STARKY266231]

@Sadamnegro Jesus was a common Magician

[onlyME3411]

I love this song. OMG!!!

[ICETitan92]

awesome song

[Killaniggabitch]

this song is one of my favorites

[qwertynacho123]

its a good song

[mrsway1991]

tontolou

[xipurpleix]

I LOVE this song!!!

[xdizaiplx]

My fave song..<3

[alreadytakenx231]

it doesnt have to say god in every line its just trying to make us look around a bit more and mabey think ne1 disagree?

[REAPER193]

ok but what im talking about this video has nothing to do with god, it doesn't talk about god at all in this song.

[cueball116]

just cus they are a christain rock band does not mean they have to mention God in all their songs thats like saying a metel band has to yell in every song no they dont

[Dryice1988]

Jon specificaly said they not a cristian rock group, the record label wasnt cristian untill another label bought it that was. look it up on wikipedia, its on there.

[ChristianJensen]

And now they started their own label (:

[Samtastic453]

I was at there concert on friday night and it was so amazing!!!

[4happygirlz]

this is my favorite switchfoot song, next to 'Oh! Gravity' of corze....

the spiderman stuff looks like it's actualy part of the video.. cool!

ROCK ON SWITCHFOOT!!!!!!

[Ewanus]

because it is

geez...

[Ewanus]

or isn't?!

[koolaidkid08]

I love this song. It's all about how God is saying "Hey there is more to life than all this stuff...live for me" and I think that's rad. So yay for Jesus =]

[REAPER193]

god? umm right i think this is about life it self not god

[koolaidkid08]

Um yeah it's about God. He's telling us there is more to live than what we live for (material things) So yeah it's about life...but God is in there.

[REAPER193]

where does it say anything about god?

[bluesky8002sbcglobal]

well technically, switchfoot is a christian rock band so koolaidkid08 is correct

[REAPER193]

yeah but where does it say anything about god, like i dont see in the lyrics of the song at all.

[SevenSplitHavoc]

good christian rock bands don't have to make it painfully obvious that they are talking about God. many write songs that make people either have to think about a little bit or actually listen to what they're trying to say to know it's about God or involves God.

[koolaidkid08]

I agree with seven. most christian bands (relient k for example) don't really mention God but it gets you thinking. Kinda inspirational if you will =]

[BlueHospitality]

One of the great things about Switchfoot as a Christian band is that they DON'T mention God directly in the lyrics. It's more subtle:

"We were meant to live for so much more" than just the world and secular things. Just think about it.

[ChristianJensen]

Technically they're not a Christian band ... they're fait is Christian ... there's a difference .

But they speak of God in some of their songs ...

Listen to the songs "Under the Floor" and "Only Hope" ... they are the most obvious ones ..

[GuitarGenius1000]

yeah they are christian!! you dill weed

[DevilsCruelty]

so tht doesnt mean they are a christian band..

[ChristianJensen]

did you not read what I wrote ???

[mizdonno]

who is jesus?

[luuizsa]

aLaaa

hahahaha

aasadsa

[AnnSPB]

COOL!how and where i can download this video???

[giovanabia1]

wtf...

this is a Christian band?

[ChristianJensen]

No ... they're Christian in faith ... there's a difference .

But they speak of God in some of their songs ...

Listen to the songs "Under the Floor" and "Only Hope" ... they are the most obvious ones ...

[SFfanatic777]

I do agree with you. They are a Christian Band, but not by Genre, by faith.they try to appeal to a broad range of Audiences, and not thove their faths down your throat.

[cleebenstine]

i smell like

[vakaris100]

so cool i am going to watch this again again and again... swichfoot rules!

[famouslastwords93]

i love this song!!!! pretty cool comparison, using this song and movie.

[123123juliana]

[digross0207]

[zanzibaroptimusprime]

[david92h]

This is the best song in the world!

[acts238111]

WOW!!!

[paoandrei]

este video es fabuloso no me canso nunca de escucharlo

[pyropakman]

Response to ImaBloodyLover- It's about how the obvious temptations of this world SEEM to be all that there is, and therefore the key to happiness. However, because everyone who sleeps around, does drugs, alcohol, etc is never happy, there must be something greater for us for which to live. So, we were meant to live for so much more than what we see around us. The easy way is exactly that, easy. Difficulty is what makes the journey matter.

[mcflygurl41]

you go girl/boy!!!

haha.

that's SUCH a good explanation!!!

good job!

[edisonmexico]

This a great example of good christian music

[rmnhn]

amen

[SKYLINERSEVEN]

song is great, but spider-man? is this the video?

[piz12345]

yeah this is the real video!

[SKYLINERSEVEN]

well,cool vid guys!

[ChristianJensen]

yeah ... it is ;P

[bgwinning]

great song, great meaning

[acts238111]

I honestly don't get every part of this song? Fumbling in his confidence........? Who is the guy???

[Ewanus]

Ummmm...He is referring to God.....ummm yeah.....The real meaning of this song and the point is that we people were meant to live to heaven,  because that is our real purpose, living for more after we die in heaven with our God or Jesus. But a lot of people denies him....They go to hell...You have lost so much more, you have lost yourself.....

[Ewanus]

umm...who deleted my comment?! and why?!

[crallan]

i fucking love this band .. i always have .. altho im not a christian my self :P

[xomrsxforemanox]

Listen to the lyrics ... you'll see ... if you can't , just read the lyrics to their song "Under the Floor" ... the way I see it , it's their most Christian song ;)

[pokemaster02]

switchfoot is the greatest christian band ever!!!!!!!!
