+Moe Moon Except they are, They kinda make it on to Christian Radio stations and I saw them live at a Christian music festival last week. They're just one of the few Christian bands that doesn't suck
God made people like you with the music skills that you have to minister to people that are hurting and struggling like me. This is encouraging and powerful music. Praise be to God and thank you for sharing this song with me.
I’m in a very hard place right now. Was also way back when I heard this on Premier Christian Radio. It’s so uplifting. It fills me with positivity and determination. It’s brilliant. ❤️ I really should play this every morning!
@@marianwalters5241 I’m sorry you’re having a hard time. Thankfully I came out of the dark place that I was in when I posted this comment. Praise God! There’s always light at the end of the tunnel even if it we can’t see it ❤️
I just left EPCOT where my son and I watched multiple sets of yours. As an old fan, I’ve introduced my son to songs like Stars, Meant to Live, Lonely Nation, Oh Gravity… but we had never heard this. I immediately looked it up when you were performing. Mind blowing song. An instant favorite. And I almost teared up having such a special moment with my son rocking out at EPCOT with y’all. Thanks for being a part of a new treasured memory.
This song was actually written about some homeless kids John met that graduated high school while homeless, learned it at a concert when he said it, pretty cool ☝️
I was forced to live in the INLAND EMPIRE SAN BERNADINO CALIFORNIA for nearly 5 yrs and the radio station that played this song was literally the only good thing about living in that desolate hell hole....thank you X103.9...I will never forget you.
Where my OG Switchfoot fans at? I was 15 when Meant To Live dropped and I remember it was one of the very first ringtones I ever bought on my tiny little LG flip phone...Starting to show my age lol...Great band and Dark Horses is my favorite song but they have so many good ones.
Literally dint even know why this song only has 6 million views, super underrated song. Also the message in this song is so important, us as Christians need to stat strong in our faith and we ARE the dark horses and I ❤️ it, serving and suffering for Jesus😎😎😎what’s better than that?!
Switchfoot the type of band to drop a pretty chill, acoustic song like Dare You To Move then shake things up with an absolute banger of a Christian rock like this masterpiece. Pretty new to you guys but so cool seeing you live at Festival One today!
Botched my own suicide, found myself surrounded by family that loves me. Everything still hurts, I still have those thoughts sometimes but I'm trying to change. This song definitely helps. Praise the Lord! ❤
I've found my true value in Christ and His truth about me. I'm no longer depressed I found a hope far greater than anyone or anything this world can give. God's love never fails! And it's enough!!❤ Know that you are loved and worthy more than you know.❤
Some really good "Christian" rock. That term is what has held them back from the masses. As much as I love singing along to songs like "Only Hope" I will never label these guys as Christian rock.
absolutely amazing song, gives me chills. These guys truly are the masters of grunge. They are unbelievably underated as a band. I feel bad becuase if they would get more popular more people could experience there amazing music
I just watched them perform for the first time a few days ago and they did this song. Awesome song. Also, why must Jon be so freaking hot?? Not just in looks, but also his voice, his lyrics, and his very kind soul. Jon, you are beautiful inside and out.
Just checked wikipedia for this. Apparently it was a tribute to an organization for homeless children in USA called ''stand up for kids ''. Fucking awesome.
To everyone that complains about this song not being a "Christian Song": it doesn't have to be. You can priase God without singing Christian music. As long as you do your music to the best of your ability and give the glory to God when you're done with it then you're praising him with your music. Switchfoot may not have made this song specifically Christian but I'm sure if you ask them they'll give the glory to God.
Born for the Sunrise, we'll survive the pain. We are the dark horses From the very title of this song, every lyric is edifying. I do not see where this is not a message inspired from Love&Hope&Perseverance. Just because the name Jesus/God ain't there, doesn't make it any less Christian. Perhaps the meaning of DarkHorses brings uncertainty. It refers to a perceived underdog emerging victorious.
@@FreedomforAfricans I agree!! I take dark horses as the ones who believe in Jesus because we are part of that minority. So, keep running with the dark horses. Hope makes the blood change courses. 🎵🎼🎵
ya, agree we are the dark horses ... "dark horse" is a term in horse racing where the unexpected, little known, almost obscure one wins the race ... totally God breathed \,,,_ "THE 4TH WAVE OF THE DARK HORSES" th-cam.com/video/7ItWVn34P48/w-d-xo.html
I played this one for my high school boys varsity basketball team throughout the county tournament in the locker room and we wound up winning the whole thing and the state tournament in 2011. We owe our success to this awesome song for motivating the whole team when we needed it the most.
@Greg Normal yes I am they're pretty awesome and they have uplifting songs that are helpful to hear when I'm sad and having less faith. I'm guessing so are you?
I am 33 years old and just want to say that in my lifetime I have never seen this world so infected, so lost.. I've seen things and done things most of you will never experience, please stay on the right path for the sake of all humanity. Howhe lovesus, sweety you are beautiful inside and out, dont let sin tempt you. The rest of your remember that rock and roll doesnt have to go hand in hand with drugs and alcohol. This is life, and it's not easy, but it's well rewarded if you just do as he says
I love this song by switchfoot. Never count a person out of doing anything they put their mind to. I remember hearing this song over 10 years ago and it still holds the same weight now
this switchfoot song is christian? I ask for the name of the song since it is strange haha, because from there switchfoot is my favorite Christian rock band
My favorite from Vice Verses 😊 so strong 🔥 If you haven't yet, check out their latest release "i need you (to be wrong)." More mellow, but it's beautiful. 🙂👌
When I first heard this song, I imagined the music video as a super fancy party with piano music and white everything and fancy perfect ppl and then the band walks in and starts playing. It just seems like this song sends the message of "Hey you greater-than-thou people we're here too and you can't think we don't matter and put us down we've been down but we're coming back strong."
This song is so memorable. I heard this song on the way to my first ever NASCAR race at Darlington, May 8th, 2010. That was when 94.3 The Dam played some good songs.
Esta música la busque por años y años La primera vez que la escuché fue en un video de la WWE el 2014 me recuerda a mi amigo la escuchamos juntos un par de veces :')
You my friend have excellent taste. I completely agree. As much as I enjoy Katy's stuff, Switchfoot WILL ALWAYS be my favourite band! This track is WAY better than hers! Peace out.
I like how a lot of the people in this comment section don't want to see any "religious" discussions because they are "open-minded," but they will willingly make fun of Christians regardless. Yes, some Christians don't treat gays respectfully. But at the same time, many Christians do treat gays respectfully. Me being one who does. We're all equally sinful in God's eyes- Gays, straights, Christians, atheists. "Hate the sin, love the sinner." You're right, nobody should force their beliefs down someone's throat, but don't persecute us for our faith only when we bring it up publicly.
Yeah talk about your faith all you want in America, it's your right. But don't try and shove your values into our court systems or endorse politicians.
Every time i thought switchfoot couldn't impress me again, there can't be any ideas left, something like this comes out. Jon is the most talented person on earth.
I like this song the keyboard sounds, the guitar those moments are specials the inspiration to this songs the kids society the kids from San Diego I like every moment!
2024 and this still rocks 🙌🙌
Just about right
Switchfoot song Dark Horses so awesome.
Yes it is
Listening to this song is 2024. Still killer. Switchfoot needs more bangers like this. They kinda stopped wringing them heavy.
This is the type of song in which you hear the first 15 seconds and you know you're in for some good stuff
+Oleg Andrushchenko As this being my first time hearing this song, I would agree
I agree! (♡_♡)
That's exactly how I felt when I first heard this song.
+Tomb Raider they're not a christian band.

This is a song that defines what alternative rock really is

June 2024 suddenly remembered this song... And it still feels amazing thankyou to WWE for spreading some of the coolest song across the world
I love how positive every comment is. Switchfoot is infectious. Most other videos on TH-cam are all so hateful. Go switchfoot!

Botched my own suicide, found myself surrounded by family that loves me. Everything still hurts, I still have those thoughts sometimes but I'm trying to change. This song definitely helps.
Praise the Lord! ❤
That's life but never forget people who loves us. Whenever you are suicidal just imagine the happy faces of those..
May you feel how deeply and truly you are loved and needed.
I hope you are doing ok. I lost a loved one to suicide, it’s been so hard. May you feel the love that is around you❤️
I've found my true value in Christ and His truth about me. I'm no longer depressed I found a hope far greater than anyone or anything this world can give. God's love never fails! And it's enough!!❤ Know that you are loved and worthy more than you know.❤
One of my favorite songs to get me motivated!
Just heard the acoustic version in Huntsville, Alabama. So rich!!!

Thats a good point!
Its chritian rock. It has meaning behind everything it says. If you dont understand it does not mean it is not chritian rock
You have wonderful taste in games.
The ultimate come back song for any sports team.
The bass guitar riffs kickin some assssssss!
absolutely amazing song, gives me chills. These guys truly are the masters of grunge. They are unbelievably underated as a band. I feel bad becuase if they would get more popular more people could experience there amazing music
I believe they are one of the Best Bands in the world. Their Positive and Uplifting Music is needed in the dark World We Live in.

One of the only things in San Bernardino California that was COOL was a radio station X103.9 fm and they used to play this song...💪🇺🇸

We are the dark horses ..........even in 2024 and more years to come!
oh my jr. college days. so nostalgic. i remember rocking hard to this song When it used to come on VH1
I love the raw heaviness of this song
Just checked wikipedia for this. Apparently it was a tribute to an organization for homeless children in USA called ''stand up for kids ''.
Fucking awesome.
That is correct!! Someone who has actually done the research...good job!!
JC Householder Exactly lol
Joe Kensei umm using the wiki is like asking some one random on the street.
that means, that you didn't buy an album, because this information is written in cover :)
You gotta love people like that..

Album: Vice Verses
[Verse 1]
I’ve made my mistakes
I’ve seen my heart cave in
I got my scars
I’ve been to hell and back again
Born for the blue skies
We’ll survive the rain
Born for the sunrise
We’ll survive the pain
[Chorus]
We’re singing
Hey, you can’t count us out
We’ve been running up against the crowd
Yeah, we're the Dark Horses
We’re singing
Wait! It’s not over now
We’ve been down but we’ve never been out
Yeah, we're the Dark Horses
[Verse 2]
We found a way out
The city takes everything it can
But outside the crowds
I can feel my lungs again
[Pre-Chorus]
Born for the blue skies
We’ll survive the rain
Born for the sunrise
We’ll survive the pain
[Chorus]
We’re singing
Hey, you can’t count us out
We’ve been running up against the crowd
Yeah, we're the Dark Horses
We’re singing
Wait! It’s not over now
We’ve been down but we’ve never been out
Yeah, we're the Dark Horses
We’re singing

Born for the blue skies
Born for the blue skies
Born for the sunrise
We’ll survive the pain
[Final Chorus]
We’re singing
Hey, You can’t count us out

You my friend have excellent taste. I completely agree. As much as I enjoy Katy's stuff, Switchfoot WILL ALWAYS be my favourite band! This track is WAY better than hers! Peace out.
