“What is true happiness?” asks Switchfoot frontman Jon
Foreman. “Is it a comfortable four-door sedan with tinted
windows? Does it mean I have 2.3 children and a beautiful
wife and live in a great neighborhood? Everyone has their
own version of what happiness means, but many of the things
we’re going for, and I include myself in this, are absurd.
There’s this moment in Jewish scripture, in Ecclesiastes,
where it says, ‘Meaningless, meaningless, everything is
meaningless.’ That’s the place where our new record starts.”
The San Diego alt-rock band’s new record,
Nothing is Sound, once again finds Foreman questioning
everything, as he did on the band’s two and a half-million
selling breakout album The Beautiful Letdown. “That’s

Review about Switchfoot
Definitely the best. | Reviewer: Michael
------ About the song 4:12 performed by Switchfoot
I daresay, this song is better than any of their top singles, and it is the most remarkable song of Oh! Gravity. The lyrics emphasize the transcendental nature of man, putting the mundane aside. This, despite being the means by which we experience the world, are also the things that distract us the most from it.
Amazing | Reviewer: helloalone
------ About the song Faust, Midas, And Myself performed by Switchfoot
This song is so beautiful and convicting. I love the "A heart that's made of gold can't really beat at all" part and "And what was once routine
Was now the perfect joy." The lyrics are so deep, and wonderful and they make me think. Possibly the best song on the record for me.

------ About the song Faust, Midas, And Myself performed by Switchfoot
i don't have an actual review, just a message to Bobby and all those like him. Jon Foreman and the rest of Switchfoot have commented that what they love about music is that it can be interpreted in many different ways. Jon has said that he is carefull in writing the songs NOT to put any specific mention of God or Jesus. By doing so, they leave it open to interpretation. No, this song has no mention of Christ, but neither do any of their other songs. That's what's great about Switchfoot. Interpretation.

Funeral Song | Reviewer: Wishgabishgus
------ About the song Yesterdays performed by Switchfoot
I love this song, it has become my new favorite. Im gonna have it played at my funeral (may it not be soon) as a sort of "final Wishes" for everyone there. The song personifies sadness, hope, forgiveness, and letting go. It has an impact on anyone who has seen death in their life and speaks their thoughts.
yeah | Reviewer: bobby
------ About the song Faust, Midas, And Myself performed by Switchfoot
i think this song is awesome but i think you people trying to reduce to being dedicated to religion and god are ruining the song. i mean i know they are a christian band but there is nothing about god in this particular song
a very meaningful song | Reviewer: vthokie114
------ About the song Meant to Live performed by Switchfoot
first off, this is a truly great song. i like pretty much anything switchfoot does, but this is one of their best. this is more than just another rock song, this is a great CHRISTIAN song. sometimes people just listen to songs just because it sounds good, which i admit i am guilty of occassionaly, but this song has so much meaning to it, it would be wrong to just pass right over the lyrics of it. its about how people now-a-days just have completely screwed up their lives by doing some pretty bad stuff, and its just talking about how much more we could (AND SHOULD!!) live to be. we were meant to live for so much more...

------ About the song Let Your Love Be Strong performed by Switchfoot
The word pictures that exist here are especially provocative...monkeys on my back and the stars touching the ground. Spinning circles among other things alludes to the other themes of the album namely the song with the same title. With thousands of other meanings, interpretations, and artful intricacies, the songwriting is brilliantly crafted by artists that are known to inspire, introspect, and sometimes soften even hearts of stone.
I disagree with your disagreement | Reviewer: jen
------ About the song Golden performed by Switchfoot
First of all it's God, with a capital 'G' and I think this song has everything to do with God. I love this song and Switchfoot is one of my favorite bands and I really think in this song God is telling this girl 'you are golden'.

"we've got the rest of our lives to regret
all the words that were said here tonight but i'll bet that the morning, in the morning we'll find us in bloom"
Amazing | Reviewer: Anonymous
------ About the song Faust, Midas, And Myself performed by Switchfoot
Every time I listen to this song I gleam at the joy the message brings to my heart and soul. Faust: The man who sold his soul to the devil. Midas: The man with the golden touch. These two people had everything they could ask for, but even they found out in the end the things they had weren't what they needed. None of it was important. Happiness, thankfulness for the things you have. Good stuff.

this is the most amazing song i have ever heard in my life. I can relate to it, really anyone can. It's about god but it can also be about someone special... I can listen to it over and over again!
About the title | Reviewer: matt
------ About the song Faust, Midas, And Myself performed by Switchfoot
after listening to this song the first time I didn't really pay attention to the lyrics at all. SO i figured it was a boring track because theres not a lot of instruments used in the track. But after listening to the lyrics again it hit me. This song is way deep and I feel carries a good message. And after I did a little research on the title i found out that Faust was a dude who sol his soul to the Devil for knowledge and power. Sorta goes with the whole theme of the song. Love it. Thanks switchfoot !

------ About the song Faust, Midas, And Myself performed by Switchfoot
This song is amazing, the lyrics when you first hear them really grabs you. Materialism is a major issue with the world. People will end others lives over a fight for money which in the scheme of things has little to no importance. What really matters is your impact on the world around us.

------ About the song Let Your Love Be Strong performed by Switchfoot
I love this song. Everytime I listen to it, my heart begin to melt.
I also like the drums coming when jonathan sings about the war.
And the lyrics is brilliant.
Switchfoot, Keep Rockin | Reviewer: Allie
------ About the song Awakening performed by Switchfoot
This song is abosolutely amazing. Have you guys watched the video? The song is ispirational but the video brings it down to a fun level that anyone can enjoy, even those who are not as religious. I've loved Switchfoot for a long time, ever since I listened to a few tracks on one of my dad's old cds. I don't think I've heard a SF song that I didn't like. They're the musicians that make you want to hug them. This kind of music is 10 times better than all of the rap stuff that's been so popular lately. Songs like Awakening are so much easier on the ears and they have such positive messages while the popular music as of now just fills teens' ears with bad language and bad messages. Thanks so much to Switchfoot, Relient K, Hawk Nelson, and so many other Christian bands that continually put messages out in their terrific songs to inspire and encourage everyone. I'm not sure where I would be without all of you.

------ About the song Awakening performed by Switchfoot
I think this song is absolutely awesome! Not only is it great and has a good melody, but it also has deep meaning to it. I've been a fan of Switchfoot's music for a very long time, and I must say that this song is probably some of Switchfoot's best work.
Whenever I listen to the words in Switchfoot's music, I always find meaning to their music, and with each new song I listen to I feel even more inspired.
Keep up the great work, Switchfoot!
Favorite song | Reviewer: Rachel
------ About the song Only Hope performed by Switchfoot
This song is so great. I didn't even know Switchfoot was the one who originally wrote it until I watched the feature commentary of A Walk to Remember with Mandy Moore, Shane West...and I forgot the director's name. :]
But, yeah. It IS more depressing when Switchfoot does it. I'm not saying Mandy Moore is a bad singer, because she's not. But I think Switchfoot also does a better job of singing it.
Anyways, I love this song!!!
Yay God!
