Switchfoot returns to the music scene with a performance of ‘Native Tongue’ on the daytime show, Pickler And Ben.
After a brief hiatus, this popular Christian rock band is back with the first single for their newest album, of the same name. This powerful rock anthem reminds us all that we should love each other and respect
“Back before we learned the words to start a fight
Back before they told us that the haters were right
He spoke the truth, “let there be” and there was
Love is the language, love is your native tongue”
Today, Switchfoot is performing ‘Native Tongue’ for a nationwide audience on Pickler And Ben. The message in these lyrics are for all walks of life, Christian or secular. They say that love is the universal language that connects us all.
“My heart is a beating drum
My head in oblivion
My soul, such a long way from
My lips, my lungs, my native tongue”
Jon Foreman described the song and album by saying, “These are polarizing times, where the loudest voice is often the voice of anger or fear. This album is an attempt to sing that hope into life. To bring a group of diverse songs under one common banner. Hatred is not your native language. Love is your Native Tongue.”
This performance certainly helped to spread this important message with thousands all over the country. Switchfoot is currently on tour to promote the album and we’re all looking forward to hearing more from this incredible record.
