Meant To Live (Switchfoot) Drum Cover + Karaoke Performance

Updated: Sep 14, 2021

I must admit that for a while I wasn't a fan of this band. I found two songs of theirs that were very very similar to other songs I like and thought they had plagiarized them. Then I realized that kind of thing happens frequently, and usually, it's unintentional.


Now that I am more religious, this band is a lot more significant to me and this song, which I've always liked, has much more meaning now. So I decided to do a cover of it, especially because I love singing it. So I hope you enjoy!
