  • its strange that this song is used to pitch a blackberry phone

  • this actually sounds like an early feedersong..

  • Switchfoot is a Christian-alternative band. Which is comprised of Christians. And it's really good music. End argument.. *click* *check* *click*

  • "for if I speak with the tongues of angels and have not LOVE it profits me nothing " something like that anyway not exact. Happy Valentine's Day!

  • Music leads into battle in 1 or 2 Chronicles Happy Day0

  • Its LIBERTY and JUSTICE for all. Freedom is liberty. Its alot of fluff to pervert those words.. That creed was a reality before the industrial military complex made contact with a higher technological culture. Before they declared war on an emotional state, and those who drive others towards madness. Insanity to say that that creed is a new thing.

  • does anyone else think that drew could replace one of the beatles and no one would notice?

  • The guitarist is so nerdy.... how cute is that? >_< Oh, and this vid is AWESOME!!!!

  • @justaskjae WE nerds rock HARD!

  • @justaskjae actually no he's not lol, yeah kinda looks like he is in this particulair music video, but trust me he is not...

  • bob rocks!

  • im not saying what your doing is bad because i agree with you all but responding to serenityluvsgod is just what they want... they want people to respond and get into fights... they may not even be religous and are probably just a troll trying to give us a bad name.... it wouldnt be that hard to go look up bible scriptures and just post them here...

  • o look... another comment board full of christians vs. nonchristians argueing about whose right or wrong. who would have guessed?

  • remember when switchfoot is awesome? yeah me too

  • @tclark00 Yeah remember when they never stopped

  • k guys how bout we let God decide who goes to Hell and who doesn't

  • Shift 2: Unleashed ahaha :)

  • me gusta ._.

  • The best track switchfoot performs live

    

  • This is christian how?

  • @skullz841 Actually i think they are a Christian band? im not sure but if you listen to the lyrics you can understand

  • @icypenguin100 They are Christian yes, but they don't consider themselves a Christian band.

  • @LeonScottKiller They are definately christian and they consider themselves as a christian band. Listen to some of their new songs. They may not sound christian, but the meanings behind them are well though up. Listen to 24 by them. Great song, and listen to the lyrics. I have been listening to them literally all of my life and they are on many recent christian CD's and radio stations. Dare You to Move tells us to move torwards god and not care about what anybody else thinks. :)

  • @DustinBusa914 Switchfoot is like my favourite band, I know all of their songs, but I remember Jon saying that he sings about things he doesn't understand, he sings about things that you can take in an either religious way, or a non-religious way.

  • @LeonScottKiller I get it, but his intentions are for them to be heard from a Christian standpoint. He currently sings in a band at a church from his hometown. He gives all of his heart to the Lord through his music and he intends it to be that way.

  • @DustinBusa914 Yeah I guess, still epic music :D

  • so glad i got to hear switchfoot live, they are amazing and truly have their hearts in the right place ♥

  • @hannahmcg15 thumbs up. thumbs up. thumbs up. thumbs up.

  • THE POINT: love people, treat all life around you respect, everything else brings separation.

  • I get 20 likes, I will sing this in front of this kid who says I'm never going anywhere...

  • Really bro God doesn't like the sound of music, who gives a fuck??? Dude God supports them, they are sending a message! Like if u agree

  • God is Love. Not Hate. You should Love. Not Hate. Switchfoot Loves. So love them back. Like if you agree!

  • as far as that goes switchfoot started there career as a christian band so saying there goin to hell is pure stupidity on ur part not to mention if thats what u truly beleive then y r u listening to it DUMBASS!!!!??? n e ways awsome song!!!!!

  • Just because he doesnt say anything about God in this song doesnt mean anything....this is a Christian song and lots of people love Rock music. This is just Christian rock and this way it can be played on any station and that means the word of God can get spread through everything, everyone

  • Guitar in this song is just amazing.I tried it myself and my friends loved it

  • Im very into this song,just found out about it after I heard my friend playing it in his car

  • Boobies (.)(.) :D

  • Jon Foreman is the Messiah!

  • @scars73 i under stand that you might be playing saying that Jon Foreman is the messiah but as you might know that JESUS IS AND WILL ALWAYS BE THE MESSIAH!!!! god bless you

  • best music video EVER!!!!!

    is John M. Perkins still alive???

  • @unicornz07 yeahh,, He is alive..!!

  • i love this song it's awesome!!!!!

  • interesting, I love that Switchfoot music brought everyone to talk about God and hatred in the same post. Whatever either party say, I see that you both love God and believes in him (can't tell do both of you believe Jesus is your only personal savior from sin). If you both love God, then I pray that He will teach you to love where (and when) there is hatred. Maybe this black and white video is too heavy and can be misunderstood, but one walking with God will know one's live is for the Glory.

  • day 3.december.2011, time . Still trying to find @serenityluvsgod comment...food and water supplies is low....

  • @Guailo17 *Facepalm* F5 smart one....

  • just ass kickin

  • whats up all this religious shit?

  • @Cavaysh Religious band so you get tons of religious people saying stuff..

  • how does this only have 480,000 views....save the goood music everybody<3

    

  • * this is

  • By the way, this definitely one of their best music videos. : )

  • You all need to just stop arguing about who is and who isn't going to hell. Youtube is to watch videos and listen to music. So just shut up and listen to the music.

  • here's an idea, how about people who have something negative to say shut up and go away...us Switchfoot fans are trying to enjoy the music, but we can't. annoying...-_-

  • its music, listen to it...who gives a shit about underlying meanings

  • fuck the people who dislike this song

  • Comment removed

  • it's not the music that makes something bad/good, the lyrics can make a song bad/good, and most certainly the lyrics from Switchfoot are inspiring to me and many others, and besides that, I love the music Switchfoot makes! every kind of music can be good/'evil', because of its lyrics, not the kind of music!

  • serenityluvsgod probably made 33 accounts just to dislike this

  • the band at my church just played this song today it was great everyone their seemed like they loved it.

  • These guys were SO GOOD live. Such an amazing band.

  • ...Last i checked this song was about standing up against oppression with love. Not about what god thinks of music...

  • @VerdwaaldOdyssey exactly.

  • @serenityluvsgod dude honestly, you give Christians bad names. Who are you to judge anyone on this earth when as humans we will never be perfect. Your only judging on your perception of what you think is right yet, right is only a point of view. It says in the Bible not to judge one another because God is the only perfection that can judge. If we were meant to judge, God would have created us perfectly instead of imperfectly. Please stop negatively judging an artist on the gift God gave them.

  • Switchfoot never disappoints me. They always have a great song and even better, they send an awesome message to everyone.

  • The dislike bar is as long as Kim kardashians marriage commitment.

  • This sounds a little like the song "wasting time" by RED. Mostly the music not the singing.

  • @GRTx12

    I just went and listened to that song. They don't sound similar at all.

  • @Nkieffer000 Ha well i guess it's just me then but it sounded a little similar with switchfoots intro and the music in the verse from Red not there intro just versus in the background, but like I said maybe it's just me who thinks that.

  • Bravo Switchfoot!

  • @serenityluvsgod wtf is wrong with you!!!its not about the kind of music it is it is all about the message in the song...

  • This one was in the trailer/tvSpot of the movie 'Real Steel'

  • @serenityluvsgod how ignorant are you? What your saying is these people are going to hell because God doesn't like the sound of their music? God could care less. They're sending a good message that people will listen to. They're evangalizing in an effiective way. do you really think playing music in God's name is a sin grievous enough to damn your soul? Think before you talk.....

  • @BallaDopePusha This music,(not necessarily the lyrics), is in your face, aggressive,and loud. Is it really possible to communicate the glorious truths of the Gospel through a medium that reflects anger, rebellion, and even hatred? I would say no. I can’t fathom God receiving glory from music that sounds like it was born in hell. These "singers" do not know the fear of God. Christian singing ought to be theological, holy and point ONLY to God, not ourselves.

    Lev.10 GOD KILLED WORSHIP LEADERS!

  • @serenityluvsgod God can and does use a variety of mediums to speak to those who need to listen. He doesn't use the same approach for all of his children. In Leviticus 10 God killed men who worshipped in ways He had not commanded. Do you know how God desires these men to worship? Show me in the Bible where it declares what type of music God does or does not approve of. Do you believe that your opinion of this music is God's opinion? Look up verses about judging others.

  • @serenityluvsgod This song isnt angry.... This song is passionate. i bet this song has evangelized and touched more people then you will in your entire life. Read the bible, it says... that we are exhorted to praise God LOUDLY it also says condemn and you shall be condemned so...

  • @serenityluvsgod i can undrstnd why u have this point of view b/c i used to have it to...until one day whn i "somehow, accidntly" saw a video of a song from Flyleaf (smilar sound) and i thgt wht u think as i scrolld dwn i read a commnt of a grl that was about to commit suicide & she clcked on the sng just to make noise...while in the prcess of the act she startd pyng attntion to the lyrics & thy tchd her and tht nght she gave her life to Christ....pray about it &ask God to guide ur every thght

  • @serenityluvsgod Switchfoot is the music that is about what we do with the gifts we are given...if we waist it...or if we use it wisely. Their music is about the highs and lows of life and how solving the mysteries of sex, politics, and God can help us through the darkness. I understand where your comming from, though. Their music is 'christian rock', but it's not the sound that makes it what it is. It's the sound of the soul, Jon Foreman's words that speak of the peace we will find in God.

  • @serenityluvsgod What??????????? You dont get music at all. A song is made of not only the music but also the lyrics, the songwriters reasoning for writing the song and the emotion and energy put behind a song. The energy and emotion here is not angry!Listen to the lyrics, they are trying to push a message that they believe 100% in, that is where the energy is stemming from. That in your face sound comes not from anger but a want to get people to listen, these guys bared their souls in this song

  • @serenityluvsgod yeah? well fuck you serenity.

  • @BallaDopePusha I am sorry but my British instincts are driving me to do this. Type this into youtube: "Dear America... | David Mitchell's SoapBox"

    I feel I need to show you this.

  • @BallaDopePusha its not the song that puts u in hell but wat you do nd if u dont repent then it's asured. otherwise if ur listening to songs that say "go to hell" and "i killed my mother" or something like that then i highly suggest you u stop listening to that b/c that's how to the devil slowly temps u to come onto his side. That is y we have "Christian music" to remind u that there is a God that will always be by your side nd not just using u thru all of the nonsense in this world. im 13 btw

  • @jetsparks17 the devils tempting you with music, ever heard of just enjoying music, no matter what the lyrics. it doesnt make you devishly inclined nor fall away from whatever religion you belong to. if you had a strong faith, you wouldnt need to remind yourself of it all the time, to reinforce it...

    peace, and just enjoy music....

  • @jetsparks17 thats what i was saying... im on your side...

  • @serenityluvsgod You mad?

    In all seriousness, you could not be more wrong. Just as God or his voice takes on many forms in the Bible, a heartfelt message to the public can take many forms, and music is a very effective one. Just because they aren't telling it to you in a sermon doesn't mean that it is unholy. You obviously have your head stuck so far up your own ass that you won't even listen, though, so go ahead and keep spouting nonsense if you wish.

  • @serenityluvsgod ya it's not about the beat, my father is the same way the band RED is a christian heavy rock band but if you would actually Listen then you would see, for example in Breath into Me, the singer is calling out to God to breath into him because he can't do it anymore. You people just are too blind I bet you think dragons are evil too.

  • @serenityluvsgod Child, you've much to learn. You must have gotten dropped on yo' head when you were a baby. God don't care whether you white, black, beige, or whateva! He don't care how the message is given as long as it IS given! The rapper Lecrae, for instance, is the most godly man I have ever seen in my LIFE, besides my very own father. The band Switchfoot speaks to me like my pastor does on Sunday morning, like any kind of music speaks to me. Seriously, what's wrong with you?

  • @serenityluvsgod Ok man thats incredibly wrong. No where in Gods holy word does it say that. Go read Psalm 150 the whol chapter. It talks about praise with music but there is no specific guidlines to worship as long as your not focusing on just the music or the people playing the music. As long as your focused on God and worshiping him then it is good praise music. I am a musician and i dont write hyms i right loud Alternative rock worship songs and i dont see myself on a road too hell.

  • @serenityluvsgod How DARE YOU SAY JON FOREMAN is going to hell!!!!!! (this goes for all other christians who like christian rock) have you heard his solo albums? they are ALL about praising God.

  • @TenthaveFan316 i cry listening to his solo eps out of joy and happiness.

  • @TenthaveFan316 Don't let ignorant people or ( TROLLS ) bother you. They could just be misinformed Christians and if you don't meet their idea of a "christian" then you are going to HELL. I say people like the globalists are going to HELL unless even they repent which even they have that option but too many people think judging is OK....????

  • @serenityluvsgod how exactly does rock music open the door to demons? its just sound...and christian rock music is pretty big and no ones saying that that's demonic so buzz off ignorant person

  • @Nyx024 its not "just" sound, its THE sound!

  • @serenityluvsgod You're so confused, only some rock is bad but certainly not Christian rock.

  • @serenityluvsgod According to the bible god freed the Israelites from Egypt a land that was oppressing them and treated them as slaves. This song is about the rights and privileges of the people of a nation, it isn't inciting anarchy. What it is saying is that our rights are being mistreated. The point of this is you're not doing bad by god by listening to loud music. Music that had constant cursing and violence throughout I could see but this is about liberty, not anarchy.

  • @serenityluvsgod One more thing, just because they are a gospel rock group doesn't mean that everything they sing about is based on Catholicism.

  • @ismelllikeaturd Catholicism? They are not catholic.  They are not even a Christian band.

  • @scars73 hehe, please, use your ears

  • @scars73 sorry, I thought I was on another video, replying to someone else, that's what I get using Youtube as my music player.

  • @scars73 What because they are a bit more mainstream than most? A lot of their songs is about faith in God and our experiences, our dreams to live loud as God's people.

  • Can't wait for Dec. 7th!!! :D

  • love is the final fight.

  • how in d world this video has a few views smh

  • LOVE this song!

  • who is going to see them live at the O2?

  • although I don't believe in racism. The large portion of African-Americans love to start up racism and make problems. Not all do. I'm a white rapper so I would know.

  • Let it rise above.

  • My football highlight tape song

  • Last nights concert was amazing, there are no words that describe it. Seeing them live then hearing them on their cds it's like whiplash, but the good kind.

  • @LeonScottKiller well i was trying to make a point, although you are right, kids do watch these videos and read these comments but you have to understand this is youtube if you dont want your kids to be here, they shouldn't be

  • @itamarslam True true... But it's just awkward for a young kid to see such a comment :P

  • @fruubful i'm also an atheist and an inspiring cynical bastard (haha) but even without god we can still believe in people

  • @kflyers4848 my thoughts exactly! :D

  • Love IS the final and most powerful weapon.

  • Thought this was 'The Bravery' when I first heard this.
