BTW, this is an essay that Jon Foreman wrote for the Huffington Post, I thought it was really good.

I'll check out what he wrote. His songs make me stop and ponder. They're not just cliches that have been worn out in 500 other songs..."Picked me up, turned me around", "Hallelujah, glory to ya". In a lot of songs, I can finish the lines the first time I hear them. But Switchfoot.....deep stuff.

We've done a lot of their stuff in church.

Dont really know much about switchfoot..and having listened to a sample of thier music, I noticed that they sounded like a pretty good band....but are they really Christian??

From the little I have read they dont want to be too closely associated with "the way called heresy"

They are definitely Christian, and you cannot escape that in listening to their lyrics, but they do not like to be called a "Christian" band. It's more like, let the music speak for itself. And it does.
