"Learning to Breathe" by Switchfoot (Cover)

This is my cover of the Switchfoot song Learning to Breathe. I know I didn't do too well so please be nice. This is after all my first cover on youtube. My singing's pretty bad and I need to work on it. I was pretty nervous and was forgetting the lyrics so much it was embarrassing so I was reading them off my screen off of land of broken hearts. So once again please be nice! Enjoy! :)

This song means a lot to me. To me it talks about the unending grace and mercy we are given every day we live in this world. We often make mistakes we wish we hadn't made and feel we can never make that up yet we are given second chances. We realize again and again how much we truly need God to be there beside us and we give ourselves completely to Him. So this song to me is about learning to live in God's amazing grace.

Here's something Jon Foreman said about this song:
"I've been through a lot of growth this year, learning of my deep needs and of my human depravity. But deeper than all of this is Christ's love for me. "He does not treat us as our sins deserve or repay us according to our iniquities. For as high as the heavens are above the earth so great is His love for us." This is the spiritual world that we have been called to and the kingdom of the heavens is here. We are learning to breathe in the atmosphere of grace."

i liked it but... the voice was the same level the whole time, some of the parts of the song requires you to like sing louder than others. Sometimes even at yelling level. But good job, i love how you picked Switchfoot as your first cover on youtube, they're my favorite band :D!
