Mess Of Me (3:27)

Mess of me is a song written and recorded by the alternative rock band Switchfoot and is to be the lead single off their seventh studio album, Hello Hurricane.
The song is a protest against society’s obsession with the pharmaceutical industry, which has become the new way to “attain never-ending, everlasting, abundant life” according to Foreman. Often misconstrued as an anti-drug song, it is rather a harsh commentary on the culture’s need to live forever, using drugs as a means to that end.
On September 1st, 2009, Switchfoot announced that they were hiding copies of the new single around the world. The first copy was hidden in Moonlight Beach under a palm tree. The band asked fans that if they were to find a copy to make a copy of the disk, and hide that copy somewhere. The single has since spread from coast to coast and overseas since.
