Amen! Sing it again brother! I like every reminder of how much we depend on God. This is it, one short life. Jesus has made it all worth living. He saved me on the day attempted suicide and gave me another chance, the best reason is to live it for Him.
Most bands, by their 10th album, have peaked and their music just isn't as good anymore, but Switchfoot never fails to amaze me. They just keep getting better and better!
I'm half crying, half laughing, because this is so beautiful. With the upcoming album being their tenth, I feel it is only fitting that it contains the same, amazing concepts that continue to encourage me and all their fans. I love you, Switchfoot!!! Please don't ever stop! God bless you!
I have been living in such a time period, when i have not seen an alien on the Earth, nor do i have seen a human on the Mars. But, I have been seeing switchfoot ever since music came to my dear heart.
It's summer now, my teacher for 5th grade played this song sonbatantly this year to give our class a lesson. Oh god am I going to miss elematary school. Middle school here I come!! I will always remember my 5th grade teacher, I usualy don't tear up at the end of a school year, but this year I did. I will miss my 5th grade teacher and all teachers!
Cody Warren well, with other words, yes. But their mantra is "Life is short, live it well", so that's why I feel like this is those words turned into a song, while before this other words were used to express the same thought.
OH YEAH! IN JESUS NAME! THIS IS ONE OF MY FAVORITE SONG OF SWITCHFOOT. OH GOD, MAY YOU BE GLORIFIED IN ALL THE EARTH!. "YOU'RE THE ONE AM LIVING FOR" " I GOT 1 LIFE, I LOVE, 1 VOICE & THAT'S ENOUGH." "AWAKEN OH MY SOUL", "CAN'T TAKE DONE OF THAT THROUGH THE DOOR". "EVERY BREATH YOU TAKE IS A MIRACLE". LIVE IT WELL! 😊 MAY GOD'S BLESSINGS CONTINUE TO YOU ALL! THANK YOU SWITCHFOOT FOR SHARING YOUR GIFTS & TALENTS TO THE WORLD...
+Mlppawheart HI MIPPAWHEART, GREETING... ALSO, CK OUT " HOPE IS THE ANTHEM" & "I WANT LET YOU GO" BY SWITCHFOOT ENJOY! I BELIEVE BY GOD'S GRACE THROUGH FAITH WE ARE ALL SPECIAL & LOVED BY HIM. 😊
this accoustic version honestly kinda saved the track for me. the album version, musically, seemed a little to generic sounding for my taste and expectation for switchfoot but this version gave me a new appreciation
Switchfoot is returning to their Christian roots.................. good for them. The world needs HOPE so much right now. Rock on ~ from a lifelong fan.
I don't think they ever left. They never abandoned their faith. It's part of who they are and you can hear it clearly through all their albums. This song it may be a bit more obvious though!
Yes...... but all musicians CHANGE as they age, get married, have families & children. I have been with #SWITCHFOOT since they were all young, & just starting out. I called them "my boys". lol They have ventured out into many "topics"...... homelessness, racism, & helping the youth in San Diego. But those are all "earthly" pursuits. They are returning to "relationship" with God songs. Speaking of their personal experiences now that they have circled the globe many times and seen, "That those that have the least, are usually the most spiritual". #JonForeman's journey is truly an amazing one. And I was so happy to see them in concert with my 18 yo daughter who enjoys them too. :-D Have a nice day Andy.
These guys music has gotten me through some of the toughest periods in my life. Going through a rough patch right now and I know I had to listen to some Switchfoot. THANK YOU
I feel bad for Drew sometimes, he's always so into what he's doing, but it seems like his parts are drowned out and can only been heard for brief moments.
Drew has definitely made his way to a lead member in the band. He plays all the lead guitar parts while Jon focuses more on singing, atleast when they play live. Maybe for the video, the person directing it wanted Jon to be the main focus. But I recommend seeing them on their upcoming tour! Drew stands in front now with Jon and Tim and he kills it on the guitar.
Honestly I think he's playing it that way on purpose, the parts he is adding are super tasteful and add to the song. Perhaps he felt like playing out louder didn't suit this "acoustic" version of the song! Also, to me it looks like he may be playing the same part as Jerome is playing on the piano. Just my observations!
One thing I have learned in playing music is just how much playing little to nothing can be if used in the right moment. I think he is showing great skill in holding back. But very good point too. Because when they play live Drew rocks the house from the front of the stage with the other guys :D
Absolutely, Drew is an incredible guitar player, and an equally incredible man. HE is as much Switchfoot as Jon, Same goes for Jerome and Chad. I love, and admire these men for so much more than just their music.
what a great song!!!! loved it, I have great expectations about this new album.... you guys are a blessing, keep it up and please come back to Colombia.
I just want to thank you guys! :) you changed my life with this song when everything was falling apart for me and my family because God spoke to me through this song and many of the songs of the new album.I just listened to it after my grandfather had a really complicated surgery and my grandmother passed away last year. They came in the right time because i was so confused, dissappointed and sad that i didnt know what to do I even got angry with God and stopped trusting Him, but you know this song made me appreciate life as i never did before, "I wont let you go" made me understand that God was not responsible for my suffering and that He didnt abandoned me durign those hard times, "hope is an attempt" made me believe in God again and relearn all the lessons He taught me in the past. Words are not enough to tell you that you change lives with your music and God uses you to heal people´s souls. I hope God blesses all of you a lot :)
I haven't been given much time to live, due to cancer; but this is my funeral song. My 'one' life is in God's hands. Enjoying every minute with my family. I hope you do the same!
LIVE IT WELL! I GOT ONE HEART, & TO HANDS TO WHOLE, ONE LIVE TO LIVE! SOUL BE ENCOURAGED. IN GOD, REGARDLESS OF ANY SITUATION, I BELIEVE, HE IS STILL THE ALL MIGHTY GOD, AND IS STILL IN CONTROL! 🔊 BLESSINGS TO ALL... 😊
I can't believe how much i smile every time i see them play together!! Especially Drew, Just pure joy!!!! My dream came true when i got to finally meet them!!!! Me and Jon Smiling
Hi. Switchfoot love and thank you very much for your music. so special, so magical, so beautiful. God bless each of you and your plans. greetings from Peru..

"I'm living for more than just a funeral"
Amen🙏
Love that traditional Switchfoot "Yeah!" to begin a song.
"Every breath that you take is a miracle". Yes, it is!!!
so true.
Inspiring reality!
True dat
”Life is short i wanna live it well, and youre the one im living for"
Amen! Sing it again brother! I like every reminder of how much we depend on God. This is it, one short life. Jesus has made it all worth living. He saved me on the day attempted suicide and gave me another chance, the best reason is to live it for Him.
Lyrics
Yeah
(I wanna live it well)
Yeah, yeah
(I wanna live it well)
Yeah
Take the burden from my arms
Take the anchors off my lungs
Take me broken and make me one
Break the silence and make it a song
Life is short; I wanna live it well
One life, one story to tell
Life is short; I wanna live it well
And you're the one I'm living for
Awaken all my soul
Every breath that you take is a miracle
Life is short; I wanna live it well, yeah
I wanna sing with all my heart a lifelong song
Even if some notes come out right and some come out wrong
'Cause I can't take none of that through the door
Yeah, I'm living for more than just a funeral
I wanna burn brighter than the dawn
Life is short; I wanna live it well
One life, one story to tell
Life is short; I wanna live it well
And you're the one I'm living for
Awaken all my soul
Every breath that you take is a miracle
Life is short; I wanna live it well, yeah
I got one life and one love
I got one voice, but maybe that's enough
'Cause with one heartbeat and two hands to give
I got one shot and one life to live
One life to live, yeah
And every breath you take is a miracle
Life is short; I wanna live it well
One life, one story to tell (one love)
Life is short; I wanna live it well
And you're the one I'm living for (the one, yeah)
Awaken all my soul
Every breath that you take is a miracle
Life is short; I wanna live it well
And you're the one I'm living for
One life, one love
(One love) One life, one love
(One voice) One voice, yeah
(And that's enough) And that's enough, oh
(One heartbeat, two hands to give)
I got one shot and one life to live
One life to live

@Jason Brown àa
If my soul could sing songs theyd be darn close to this.
I'm half crying, half laughing, because this is so beautiful. With the upcoming album being their tenth, I feel it is only fitting that it contains the same, amazing concepts that continue to encourage me and all their fans. I love you, Switchfoot!!! Please don't ever stop! God bless you!
I've watched this 10 times already... and counting.
i've watched float that many times as well and still counting!. qill see them live soon, Lord willing!.
💯 times and still counting, now in 2020🔥

"constantly"
I still remember Hello Hurricane record hunt at release, Thank you for being in life Switchfoot
Finally, their mantra turned into a song :)
+Aron van Os Haven't they written this song half a dozen times before?
Cody Warren well, with other words, yes. But their mantra is "Life is short, live it well", so that's why I feel like this is those words turned into a song, while before this other words were used to express the same thought.
+Cody Warren must be an important message, if they are repeating it so much!
It lacks creativity, and the message is redundant.
+Cody Warren confused about eveything you have said, but mostly about the message being redundant?
I can't have enough of this song! The message is so simple and clear, yet so powerful! 💙
I absolutely LOVE the lyrics to this song. Praise Jesus!!!
I love how he is looking directly at the camera when he sings! It's like he is singing to me personally! It just makes me smile!!
Love this band. Great, consistent music. Always have good meanings behind their songs.
the best band
One of the best songs I’ve ever heard!!!
They never fail to impress me! What a song! The lyrics is so inspiring.
i love this song so much better acoustically.
Claps from Brazil, wonderful song.
OH YEAH! IN JESUS NAME!
THIS IS ONE OF MY FAVORITE SONG OF SWITCHFOOT.
OH GOD, MAY YOU BE GLORIFIED IN ALL THE EARTH!.
"YOU'RE THE ONE AM LIVING FOR"
" I GOT 1 LIFE, I LOVE, 1 VOICE & THAT'S ENOUGH."
"AWAKEN OH MY SOUL",
"CAN'T TAKE DONE OF THAT THROUGH THE DOOR".
"EVERY BREATH YOU TAKE IS A MIRACLE".
LIVE IT WELL! 😊
MAY GOD'S BLESSINGS CONTINUE TO YOU ALL!
THANK YOU SWITCHFOOT FOR SHARING YOUR GIFTS & TALENTS TO THE WORLD...
Amen!

"I got one life, and one love..." well said. Can't be hopeless when that one love is eternal hope itself. Thanks guys! Needed this this morning.
This song is so underrated right now.
this accoustic version honestly kinda saved the track for me. the album version, musically, seemed a little to generic sounding for my taste and expectation for switchfoot but this version gave me a new appreciation
How I love this acoustic version! And that they are all sing together - it looks so homy.. :)
Switchfoot is returning to their Christian roots.................. good for them. The world needs HOPE so much right now. Rock on ~ from a lifelong fan.
I don't think they ever left. They never abandoned their faith. It's part of who they are and you can hear it clearly through all their albums. This song it may be a bit more obvious though!
Yes...... but all musicians CHANGE as they age, get married, have families & children. I have been with #SWITCHFOOT since they were all young, & just starting out. I called them "my boys". lol They have ventured out into many "topics"...... homelessness, racism, & helping the youth in San Diego. But those are all "earthly" pursuits. They are returning to "relationship" with God songs. Speaking of their personal experiences now that they have circled the globe many times and seen, "That those that have the least, are usually the most spiritual". #JonForeman's journey is truly an amazing one. And I was so happy to see them in concert with my 18 yo daughter who enjoys them too. :-D Have a nice day Andy.
:) It would be so fun to have a party with all Switchfoot Fans, I think this band has the best fans.
Taylor Macdonald ;-)
Cada respiro es un milagro! Excelente cancion.
