A day in LA.

A day in LA.
Switchfoot est un groupe de rock alternatif de San Diego, Californie dont les paroles mettent l'accent sur des thèmes spirituels et sociaux. Ses membres sont Jon Foreman (voix, guitare), Tim Foreman (basse), Chad Butler (percussions), Jerome Fontamillas (guitare, piano), et Drew Shirley (guitare électrique).

D'après Jon Foreman, le mot Switchfoot vient du surf. "Nous aimons tous surfer et avons surfé toute notre vie, alors pour nous ce mot fait sens. Switcher tes pieds signifie prendre une nouvelle attitude en changeant de direction. C'est changer et bouger, une manière différente d'approcher la vie et la musique."

Switchfoot s'inspire de U2, des Beatles,...
Mais aussi de Keith Green, Miles Davis, Stevie Ray Vaughan, Tommy Walker, Phil Keaggy, Dave Matthews Band, Dave Grohl..gens que personne connait en Europe quoi, moi non plus d'ailleurs. Sauf pour Phil Keaggy, enfin bon. Lol

Learning to Breathe / I Dare You to Move (2000)

[ Listen to this track ] [ Add this track to my blog ]

  • Title: I Dare You to Move
  • Album: Learning to Breathe
  • Year: 2000

Lyrics:

Welcome to the planet
Welcome to existence
Everyone's here
Everyone's here
Everybody's watching you now
Everybody waits for you now
What happens next
What happens next

[Chorus]
I dare you to move
I dare you to move
I dare you to lift yourself up off the floor
I dare you to move
I dare you to move
Like today never happened
Today never happened before

Welcome to the fallout
Welcome to resistance
The tension is here
Tension is here
Between who you are and who you could be
Between how it is and how it should be

[Chorus]

Maybe redemption has stories to tell
Maybe forgiveness is right where you fell
Where can you run to escape from yourself?
Where you gonna go?
Where you gonna go?
Salvation is here

I dare you to move
I dare you to move
I dare you to lift yourself up off the floor
I dare you to move
I dare you to move
Like today never happened
Today never happened
Today never happened
Today never happened before

The Beautiful Letdown / Meant to live (2008)

[ Listen to this track ] [ Add this track to my blog ]

  • Title: Meant to live
  • Album: The Beautiful Letdown
  • Year: 2008

Lyrics:

Fumbling his confidence
And wondering why the world has passed him by
Hoping that he's bid for more than arguments
And failed attempts to fly, fly

We were meant to live for so much more
Have we lost ourselves?
Somewhere we live inside
Somewhere we live inside
We were meant to live for so much more
Have we lost ourselves?
Somewhere we live inside

Dreaming about Providence
And whether mice or men have second tries
Maybe we've been livin with our eyes half open
Maybe we're bent and broken, broken

We want more than this world's got to offer
We want more than this world's got to offer
We want more than the wars of our fathers
And everything inside screams for second life, yeah

We were meant to live for so much more
Have we lost ourselves?
We were meant to live for so much more
Have we lost ourselves?
We were meant to live for so much more
Have we lost ourselves?
We were meant to live

Learning to Breathe / Love Is The Movement (2000)

[ Listen to this track ] [ Add this track to my blog ]

  • Title: Love Is The Movement
  • Album: Learning to Breathe
  • Year: 2000

Lyrics:

A day in LA
And millions of faces
Are looking for movement
Cause everything's stuck
And everything's frozen
And everyone's broken
And nobody moves
And everybody's scared
That the motion will never come

This is the incompletion
Stuck in a line

Love is the movement
Love is a revolution
This is redemption
We don't have to slow back down

The stars are alive
They dance to the music
Of the deepest emotion
And all of the world
Is singing in time
As the heavens are caving in
Mysterious ways
Why God gave His life
To put motion inside my soul

It's bigger than cold religion
It's bigger than life

We're starting now
We don't have to slow back down

This is a revolutioin

Get up, get up
Love is moving you now

New Way to Be Human / Only Hope (1999)

[ Listen to this track ] [ Add this track to my blog ]

  • Title: Only Hope
  • Album: New Way to Be Human
  • Year: 1999

Lyrics:

There's a song that's inside of my soul
It's the one that I've tried to write over and over again
I'm awake in the infinite cold
But You sing to me over and over again

So I lay my head back down
And I lift my hands
and pray to be only Yours
I pray to be only Yours
I know now you're my only hope

Sing to me the song of the stars
Of Your galaxy dancing and laughing
and laughing again
When it feels like my dreams are so far
Sing to me of the plans that You have for me over again

And I lay my head back down
And I lift my hands and pray
To be only yours
I pray to be only yours
I know now you're my only hope

I give You my apathy
I'm giving You all of me
I want Your symphony
Singing in all that I am
At the top of my lungs I'm giving it back
