The thing is, these guys rule!!! I mean, they’re just the coolest. Their lyrics are so deep and meaningful...yet they’re can be completely pointless!! On their CD, they give their shoe sizes!! That’s just so awesome!! And have you ever seen the video for The Real World? A camel!?!? As you can tell, these guys just rock the world.
I can tell you of a story that one of my friends was hanging out in a karokie bar in Rochester where MatchBox 20 had recently had a concert. Some one requested the song 3 am and took the mic. As the man began to sing...the bar quieted as everyone realized that it was Rob Thomas singing his own song!! He and his band were just out to have a little fun at a local bar. I still envy that friend of mine that got to see Rob up close!!
Here are some of my favorite lyrics and if you haven’t got this CD yet, you need to buy it!!
real world:
Straight up, what did hope to learn about here, if I was some one else, would this all fall apart. Strange where were you when we started this game, I wish the real world would just stop hasselin me and you.
long day:
Hey, it’s me, yeah and I can’t get my self to go away...yeah, it’s me and I can’t get myself to go away oh God I shouldn’t feel this way!!
argue:
All these feelings they cloud up my reasoning!!
kody:
And please give me direction, I think the hurt set in, and I don’t feel nothin
busted:
And the people we’ve become, well, they’ve never been the people who we are
shame:
What do we learn here is love tastes bitter when it’s gone
Back 2 Good....
