About
New Way to Be Human is the second studio album by the band Switchfoot. It was released on March 23, 1999 under independent label re:think Records, which was distributed by Sparrow Records. The best-known songs from this album are the title track "New Way to Be Human", "Company Car", and "Only Hope". The latter was included in the movie A Walk To Remember and is an international favorite. Both "Sooner or Later (Soren's Song)", and "Something More (Augustine's Confession)" are based upon the works of philosophers. "Something More" is based upon a series of books known as Confessions, that were written by Augustine of Hippo. About "Sooner or Later" Jon Foreman has said that "Sooner or later we all have to deal with the frightening reality that there is much that is wrong in the world... This is Soren's song... These are his thoughts as best as I understand them," alluding to the philosophy of Danish existentialist philosopher Søren Kierkegaard.
