Set Your Goals- Echoes

Official Music Video

[@Dr.Gainzzz]

These guys will probably never know how impactful this song truly is. So ahead of its time.

[@danmilam618]

I'll never forget how much this song and album changed my teenage mentality back when I needed it most

[@rarecandy3445]

same. i was a pretentious deathcore kid back then, and the firdt SYG song i tried was “this song is definitely not about a girl” and i was humbled lol. loved them ever since.

[@sinarrecordsmedia2262]

Me too dude!

This record came out while I was away at college and made a big impact on me during such a stressful and confusing part of life. Now at the age of 32, this song especially resonates with me now more than ever. After losing several of my friends to either suicide, heroin, and car accidents- the core of its essence really hit hard. You then start losing all of your grandparents, my uncle/godfather was also taken from us a couple of years back. This song places it all into perspective in such beautiful, uplifting fashion and it often brings me to tears when I need it most. The best part about it all though, is that while we may experience the absence of our loved ones, the music is ALWAYS going to be there! Instant therapy.

[@Dr.Gainzzz]

Set your goals were massively underrated they were one of the few bands in the genre during the time where they talked alot about positive things in their lyrics which was a nice change from all the screamo depressing stuff.

[@SMSmediaservices]

@@Dr.Gainzzz couldn’t agree more!

[@SMSmediaservices]

@@hopperhustle thanks friend! :) ✌️

[@NickBurns-ey6od]

This song came out in 2006. How are were you in college? You had to have been born 89 to 90. Which would put you in the junior or senior year.

[@SMSmediaservices]

@@NickBurns-ey6od Hi. I think you meant to ask me how old I was in college. I was born in 1986, and I began college in the Fall of 2005, however I hadn’t discovered this record until summer of 2007, which by that point I was 20. I should also add, I did 2 years of community college before I ultimately transferred and went away for the Fall 07’ semester. Hopefully that all makes sense now lol.

[@alexhearing3689]

14 years, I remember jamming to this song when I was just out of high school, now it's helping me cope with the loss of my mother. Thank you.

[@antshaw5389]

thinking of you ❤️

[@Lordfocus762]

Lost my mom two years ago and this song has definitely helped me too. Hope you are doing alright brother

[@GFauxfox]

2024 this still goes so fkn hard.

[@sergiofernandez7318]

Rest in peace Michael Anthony Rodriguez September 1st 1992 - January 31st 2010 My darkest day in high school. I love you dude. We'll always miss you.

[@DweeD1516]

This song really hits home with me. No one ever really does wonder. If you have lost someone just think someone somewhere right now young or old have that same piercing pain in there heart you did. If you visualize deeply someone right now going through that pain while listening to this song and it doesn't bring a tear to your eye I don't know what to say. This world needs more compassion.

[@AlexNavarro99]

We must all have empathy towards everyone, I agree. We live in a very selfish world.

[@TabithaAsmr420]

Thanks to Facebook memories I'm able to see all the random quotes from songs that I would post when I was a teenager, then I get to listen to the songs like it's the first time but still remember how it used to make me feel. ❤

[@DoqZhivago]

Nothing cures a sad day like Set Your Goals. Nothing. This picked my spirits up in 2006 and its still doing the same for me six years later. Thanks guys, I love you.

[@yrantiquebrand]

Damn. 11 years later.. hope you haven’t forgotten this banger

[@itsnicksharpbro]

My grandmother died on this date last year. This is the song that gives me strength to move forward and never overlook what I've got.

[@poppapunker6238]

Going through the hardest breakup of my life. My girlfriend who I loved and was planning on marrying just up and left me one day. The only thing that got me to brush it off eventually was this fucking song. Thank you so much SYG you essentially saved my life tonight.

[@dylan8550]

Same here...god we all suck

[@MarcDiaz-nr5yg]

Que obra de arte de canción y de video, el trenzado de voces es genial. Para todos aquellos que perdimos seres queridos es una gran motivacion para seguir adelante. Dedicado para mi padre y mi abuela que partió hace poco.

[@ruse_didichannel]

why this band so underrated, Set Your Goals amazing high energic pop-punk band

[@crashbombband]

This is too True

[@occamsrazor1285]

Matt described themselves as Melodic Hardcore. Or maybe that was Jordan?

I found out about this band when I was in high school… my mom took me to the SF Academy of Arts film fest and saw this premiere. The director/student won in a category, and I remember how happy he was. Saw someone mention Set Your Goals on Reddit and it brought me back to this. Haven’t heard this in well over a decade. So cool!

[@kastellan123]

This songs lyrics are so meaningful to me and helped me get through the pain of losing my best mate at only 18. Love this band and this song.

[@Lordfocus762]

I remember listening to this song years ago having no idea how much it would reflect my life currently. It has now been 3 years without my mom, at 33 years old I still don’t know how to move on…

[@crashbombband]

STILL LISTENING IN 2019! There needs to be an Easy-Core Pop-punk Come Back 2020!

no one can imagine how much this song mean to me....is the answer to all my problems...it make me feel happy,sad,angry,quiet and stuff like this....in my opinion set your goals is an awesome band but this song is something that i can't describe with words....is much more than a simple song

[@AtTheDriveInFAN]

R.I.P To my grandpa and my friend Billy. This song reminds me of them and the good times we had. Miss you guys.

[@ShaDHP23]

I Think it's a good thing I never had this song in my childhood. Hearing it as an adult, after everything I had experienced and suffered, it made me stop dead the first time I let the lyrics sink in. It made me feel like I could start again. It made me realize I didn't just suffer growing up. I endured. I don't think the song would have had as much an impact of I heard it growing up. I'm not done.

[@noneofyourbusiness1114]

seeing them live when I was 15 changed my life

[@JohnMHatch]

dedicated this to my Grandad. He died of cancer. A lot of the lyrics remind me of what he would say.

[@m.a.r.t.i.n.]

This song is one of my all time favourite and has helped me through tough days. Thanks for this absolute gem 🔥🙏

[@stevepaz7182]

This song is what helped me go thru someone who I was very close to death. One of my childhood bestfriends... still can't believe your gone just thinking about you and listening to this song brings tears to my eyes I miss you dearly my bro Erwin Torres .. cant believe it has been over 5 years since you left us , I did mourn the lost but now I'm stronger miss you and love you until we meet again....

[@msochist8491]

The quick bullet: a tough one to dodge and no one ever does It cuts fast and deep (keeps you from sleep) And you just have to let it bleed I know the pain, it's all too familiar If I could sing words to help, you know I would And they would end the pain But you will have to let this make you stronger It's difficult to overcome The name of a ghost still dancing on our tongues So bittersweet (these memories) I wish they could have taken me And you will struggle through tough times And destroy all your fears Don’t let this win over you Soon you will end the pain And you will say that it did make you stronger This is how you overcome (Voices fade away) And we’ve all heard it sung (They fade away, as the memory) You really don't know what you got till it's gone (The memory remains) And then you want it back so much Nobody ever warned you… Breathe in, take in it deep Cross your heart, it's yours for you to keep Wishful? I guess I never was I am looking up now, death can change us Breathe in, take in it deep (And I will keep, pieces of you alive in me) Cross your heart, it's yours for you to keep (Your spirit carries on.) Wishful? I guess I never was (And I will keep, pieces of you alive in me) I am looking up now, death can change us (Your spirit carries on.) I will, stand alone I will, learn from this, I will I will, mourn the loss and I will be stronger

[@hephenstalking1626]

I always loved this song, gives me great memories in my twenties. Two years ago i lost my father and its not just a partysong anymore. The lyrics hurt and cure at the same time. Thanks SYG for this masterpiece! Every letter...yes, it makes me stronger!

***** Home Grown is fucking awesome and underrated!! One of my fav skate/pop punk bands!

[@ClockworkMishap]

I wish I could personaly thank them for this song, it has helped me through a loss and felt as if someone who cared was there whenever I needed them.

[@jamesb1988]

When I first got into this band I always thought Matt (the little singer) seemed awesome and Jordan (the big singer) seemed like a bit of a douche. After meeting them my theory was definitely proven. Jordan wasn't too bad but Matt was absolutely the most friendly, down to earth guy I've ever met. Will always be a fan!

[@TheStidOfficial]

James Bayly I never got those vibes from Jordan but I met both on tour and both are some of the nicest dudes. Super friendly, down to earth and happy to have a chat.

[@jamesb1988]

I was totally wrong, Jordan is a sweetheart! Like you said, they all are!

[@riseagainstfan1986]

The main singer kinda sounds like tom Delonge in this Song

[@g.waldmeister1851]

Dude, listen to the opener of the album. He even has this strange laboured and exaggerated "pop punk voice" accent down that De Longe sang in.

[@harriheinsoo]

lots of blink influences in their sound too. Very cool
