"Dark Horses" is a song written and recorded by the alternative rock band Switchfoot, and serves as the first single from their eighth studio album entitled ''Vice Verses.'' It was debuted on the band's official website on July 20, 2011 and serviced to radio the same day. The release was announced on AllAccess/Mediabase and later confirmed by singer Jon Foreman during an interview with radio DJ Adrian Hummel.〔(Jon Foreman of Switchfoot (Interview) ) - Published June 27, 2011 (retrieved July 5, 2011)〕 ==Song history== The song first made a public appearance on June 10, 2010 in Amsterdam during Switchfoot's Hello Hurricane tour. The band sound-checked it once there, and also subsequently played it at several more shows during the fall leg of their tour. It was reworked afterwards during the studio sessions for ''Vice Verses'', and the band debuted the revamped version with a new chorus with different melodies and a re-worked second verse in Winnipeg, Canada in May 2011. The band performed it throughout the summer festival season, and also allowed fans to preview it at their Bro-Am event in June.〔(Switchfoot Bro-Am lineup revealed )〕 Singer Jon Foreman has from time to time stated that the song is an anthem for Stand Up For Kids, an organization that aids orphaned youth back in the band's hometown of San Diego, CA. "For me that song the Dark Horses is all about the homeless kids back in San Diego, specifically the ones who are being helped out by Stand Up For Kids," he says.〔(Jon Foreman of Switchfoot (Interview) ) - Published June 27, 2011 (retrieved July 5, 2011)〕 "It's always nice when you have a song you are passionate about singing night after night that has a deeper meaning than simply another verse and another chorus." 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Dark Horses (song)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
