somewhere past the setting sun....

I always think of this as the perfect California/beach song.

I almost died listening to this song. No seriously, I dozed off at the wheel while I had this song playing. Luckily those groves on the side of the road snapped me out of it. That and my friends screaming in the back seat. Good times.

Who disliked this?!

This song is about physcological and emotional pain that everybody has. Being dumped by your girlfriend, not fitting in at school, never really feeling like you belong. There is always something wrong or not quite right but you you can't quite put your finger on it. These are the kind of scars and problems he is talking about. Most of us have a sense of longing for something better than this life. Money is not enough for me to be happy, so beyond the setting sun sounds pretty good.

I'm a big switchfoot fan and have been since their "legend of chin" album. I'm also a christian and I know that switchfoot is a christian band, but I still don't hear any overt christian lyrics. If I didn't know about swithfoot, I would have no idea that this song has anything to do with god or heaven. I don't think this song is a metaphor about how messed up the world is either.

@57LANi94 well, that would make sense, because they're a band of surfers! the term "switchfoot" is actually a surfing term for switching your back foot with your front...there's a whole metaphorical meaning behind the band-name, changing position (in life or whatever you're going through)

@Taptto most definitely, all of switchfoots music has that california tone to it, and its very uplifting too. i always listen to their music when i go to the beach, makes the rst of my day very relaxing and happy

[57LANi94]

@Taptto most definitely... all of their music ahs that california tone to it. whenever i go to the beach i always have to listen to their music, it relaxes me. Switchfoot's music is also very uplifting

[57LANi94]

i'm oldschool. whether or not christ was real is debatable. i think that western religion was perverted when original texts were translated. we lost so much, what have we gained.
