Switchfoot -”This is Home” – THE CHRONICLES OF NARNIA

Posted by admin on April 19th, 2010 and filed under homes | 25 Comments »

Great news! Switchfoot has been chosen to record a song for the official Prince Caspian movie soundtrack!

Greetings amigos!

When my brother and I were kids, my dad used to read us CS Lewis books before we went to sleep. So when we were asked to be involved in a movie based on his book, “The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian” – we were honored to be considered.

I wanted to capture the longing that is embedded in much of Lewis’ writing- so I tried to think back to what these stories meant to me when I was six years old and write from that perspective. The song that came out is called “This is Home.” It’s been quite a journey: a San Diego song with strings cut at Abbey Road in London complete with a video shot in Hollywood.

We are so excited to not only share this song with you, but you can hear the song streaming on our website, myspace, and facebook. The song will also be featured on the soundtrack, which is being released through Hollywood Records on Tuesday May 13th in stores everywhere.

This is our first venture as an independent band- so thank you for being a part of this! And thanks again for all your continued support.

    I liked it, but I feel like it was more of a promo 4 the movie. I know that it has to have some movie clips in it, but it was all action stuff that didnt really fit the song. I personally, think it should have showed more peaceful scenes like landscape or the 4 kids at the beach.
