I've listened to Switchfoot once every five years or so and every time I do, the lyrics just mean more and different things. These guys were not just musically talented, they were tuned into how to write timeless and artistic lyrics that stir true emotion and thought. I'm continuously impressed.

Man, it's so nostalgic to listen to Switchfoot again. And, props to these guys, they are probably the only guys in the world who've written a song that tells you to STOP listening to their music, lol!

Okay as a kid I didn’t realize how amazing Switchfoot lyrics are! Listening at 25 my mind is blown !!

[SwelIy]

This song is so unbelievably underrated it's disgusting. Been listening since around 2005 and I'll never stop.

[scapek]

The lyrics are perfect for this day and age

Today, The Beautiful Letdown turns 20. I could not be more thankful for this album, and how it catapulted my obsession with this wonderful band.

2:07 is my favorite part of the regular CD, and Monday Comes Around is my favorite part of the Deluxe Edition.

The best way to get to learn about new artists is by watching movies or video game soundtracks. I learned about switchfoot by playing an MLB game and I still love them

At my elementary school talent show when I was in the 5th grade (2005-2006), two girls in my grade made a dance routine to this song, crazy right?

I swear John Foreman was a prophet sent by God.

I was like 8 years old and this was my favorite song holy shit nostalgia. I forgot about this!

[Beregond]

My brother put this on my very first MP-3 player when I was a kid. I love this music almost as much as him. Such a great band for the Father of Fathers and King of Kings!❤🎶

Revisiting all my old favorites as I begin to restart my writing career. This is one of my favorite Switchfoot songs. I'm glad i found it again!

What's it gonna take
to slow us down
the let the silence spin us around?
What's it gonna take
to drop this town?
We've been spinning at the speed of sound.


Stepping out of those convenience stores,
what could we want but more more more?
From the third world
to the corporate core
we are the symphony of modern humanity.


If we're adding to the noise
turn off this song.
If we're adding to the noise
turn off your stereo, radio, video...


I don't know
what they're gonna think of next
genetic enginers of the most high tech.
A couple new ways
to fall in debt.
I'm a nervous wreck but I'll bet
that that T.V. set
tells us what we want to hear
But none of these sound bites
are coming in clear.
From the third world to the corporate ear
we are the symphony of modern humanit

I never realized how much drum machine they used.
