Me too. 2013 was the second half of my sophomore year in college. I bartended at a bar on campus and this song would play regularly every night; at least twice a week. When it did, everyone in the place from the band geeks to the football players would be singing along to the chorus; good times!
I once heard a voice coach say Rob Thomas doesn't actually sing his lyrics, he bites them. It sounds like an insult but she was a huge fan of him. She says he is effortless in his style and no one can do what he does quite the way he does it. She said she tried it and was out of breath by the end of the song. She was like, "you just can't breathe doing it how he does it."
Bc I'm mean? Sometimes, I hafta take a real hard look at myself and as much as I dont want to claim I'm this & that, I'm still capable. Annnd just like that, I'm mean. When pushed enough tho. Odd how ppl work sometimes tho. Its like hmm. You wanted me to go off, huh?! By the attention begging sh ure doing?! So, Now you respect me...? Thats interesting. Niceness & quietness just doesn't work - sometimes.
This makes twenty years since Mad Season came out and I love this album so much. This is one of my favorite albums from Matchbox Twenty of all times and they sure know how to play their instruments.
I'm obsessed with this video! I love Rob and the guys but this song...it lifts my mood every time. They're having so much fun and rocking their asses off. Paul's antics on the drums crack me up every time
I just saw MB20 THIS year, 2023, and it was a beautiful trip of great music and full 90s nostalgia!! If you get the chance to see em live- DO IT!!! THEY WERE ABSOLUTELY PHENOMENAL AND DID ALL THE CLASSICS🙌🎶
Brookly Tanner if your impressed by that go check out Judas Priest all those dudes' instruments were on fire and it's way more kick ass when they do it
@@winn5736from Time: Were there any really scary moments during the shoot? Paul [Doucette, Matchbox Twenty’s drummer,] on fire was really scary. We kind of thought you’d set the drums on fire and you’d do it once. Paul is literally, physically playing these drums while they’re blazing up. And then they’re like, “We need to do it again to get another shot.” We wound up doing it maybe four different times, and each time Paul’s getting redder and redder and he’s literally emanating heat from himself. That was kind of scary. And the part where people got hurt the most was, oddly enough, when they were throwing the albums. Those little f-ers are thin and sharp!
I gotta say, silent acting is some of the best acting you can do, conveying so much with just body language. I don't know who the girl in this video is, but she nails this role. Well done.
I know this comment is three months old, but I got to say I totally agree. I could practically smell whatever was in that jar. And I could definitely hear her go "eh, whatever" as she decides to drink it anyway.
Has she gone off into acting? She silently played the role of spoiledbratabsoluteb*tch to a tee! Not a bad song, either. Could have easily been half as long if Rob or the drummer, or ANYbody had just thrown her butt out the window. 😎
Oh my gosh! This was my favourite childhood song and I've been trying to remember the lyrics for MONTHS and I FINALLY found the song!! It's definitely as great as I remembered
Matchbox twenty releases some awesome shit...especially in the 90s...its one of the more modern bands that I think has real talent and makes seriously good music
@@jerrisilver2 and don't forget their live is much better than the recorded one! The goosebumps I feel when I watched the live of their Back2Good and Bent. Kinda sad that no artists is as good as them in my opinion.
She's basically a cat. "All you want is just to hold her but she don't go for that," the man exclaims as his companion knocks over everything in the vicinity.
I so love this video especially the way Rob makes them faces ducking the album. He is just so adorable , poor Paul had to keep playing the drum while fire 🔥 going up ! They are all great together I love when they get back together every now & then. Fantastic guy’s all of you ! 🎶❤️🎶🥁🎹🎼🎧🎸
The first time I heard this song, I was coming up from the basement with a basket full of clean laundry. Alexa had been playing Match Box 20 for me, all day. When I was coming up the stairs, Rob was singing the chorus. I laughed so hard I had to concentrate to lean forward. If I straighten up, the laundry and I would have fallen down the stairs!! Once I got to the kitchen, I asked Alexa to play it again. That was awesome!! ❤️🎵
Bruh... Come at that comment from a decade and a half ago: "Alexa had been playing matchbox 20 for me" Can I go back, please? We were given freedom of choice and chose to use it to attain freedom from choice. Pathetic.
+liza Nostalgic..? Oh yes! The good old times, when we where young and carefree... Live was easy and the world healthy back than. After all 4(!) years are gone since that.
3:00 Rob is just natural. Love the way he makes expressions in all of his videos. Makes me wonder why didn't he pursue acting aside from being a Great musician. The guy is a GOAT!
My parents listen to all kinds of music and Matchbox Twenty is one of those artists that is always playing. I love this song so much. Thanks for making quarantine fun @MatchboxTwenty
One of my best artist ....love u guys.....we will never meet ,never see each one of us but still love ur songs will always be...still from the very first album"UNWELL"&"THE DIFFERENCE"...👌👌👌👌👌👌
I'm still watching!! It's been overc25 years since I've found this group of wonderful, amazing and awesome entertainers! Totally love Matchbox Twenty20!! Thank you for such amazing memories and awesome music! 💯❤️ 🎶 🎵
Rob has been writing stuff that makes me smile and the things that my soul feels but I don’t have words for going on 20 years now. Keep it up MB20, America’s better with you!
It's 2012 and you just finished school for the day. You come home and load up Halo Reach and listen to this while playing with your buddy. Life is good.
I Lost my oldest sister last September to COPD ☹️ she loved Rob Thomas ❤️ she was a crazy Red Head this was her song. Her name is Dewana...my neice and daughter changed the words to" Aunt Dewana she's so mean" I miss her everyday, ❤️ I have 50yrs of memories and music to Always remind me of her. Gone too soon, never forgotten 😇 watch over me Sister ❣️ RIP 🌷
its a music video ffs... its just to capture the theme of the song with visuals to get the message across they are not actually playing in the video dedication to Music begins when you are ready to give up on many things in order to play your music like a lot of bands did in the past. I personally have nothing against these guys but their lyrics are pretty much replacable with the most bands singing about relationships and personalitys of women or men just think they are overproduced would love to hear some stuff from before they have become famous
Michael Bäcker oh god you're delusional. half the magic behind their old hits are the inspiration behind them, and you're really going to preach about dedication to a band that's taken over 20 years to get to where they are now? please.

Also, she seems indestructible. She drinks shit and puts her hands in the wiring and nothing happens to her.
Check our their original recordings from when they were in the band Tabitha's Secret. Rob, Paul and Bryan's original stuff was pretty amazing even before they became Matchbox 20
About the drummer its cool actually, flaming drum and his suit especially he's doing the break its center of attraction which calls our attention, nice and good move... Awesome very awesome...
Your much-loved artists EXISTS due to the fact people had taken a opportunity to listen to these guys! ""*watch?v=fKTYND_4x2U* "" Outstanding those dudes are! UA-cam the video and experience a fun time!!
Not sure why this wasn't a bigger hit . Peaked at #40 on Billboard?!?!? Criminally underrated song.
Ignore the charts, huge hit in NZ and Aus
@@thedappercookthats why MB20 went there last month
@@paolothorpe1461 maybe
Maybe music was just better back then, this would for sure be a banger today
I think over 37 million views say something entirely different
Rob's facial expressions and reactions are gold.
That expression of his before she throws the match is priceless
Thanks Mate
@@HFFCANADA for real. He's singing with his mouth but speaking something else with his eyes
@@robb.7587 Anytime!
They make the video
This song takes me back to 2013, Driving through Florida on holiday with my dad and brother in a rented mustang and it was just bliss. Good times man.
Me too. 2013 was the second half of my sophomore year in college. I bartended at a bar on campus and this song would play regularly every night; at least twice a week. When it did, everyone in the place from the band geeks to the football players would be singing along to the chorus; good times!
The Matchbox 20 era makes me happy. Missing the good ol’ days.
Rob Thomas is one of the most underrated vocalist in music. Be it solo or MB20 his vocals are 🔥🔥🔥
I once heard a voice coach say Rob Thomas doesn't actually sing his lyrics, he bites them. It sounds like an insult but she was a huge fan of him. She says he is effortless in his style and no one can do what he does quite the way he does it. She said she tried it and was out of breath by the end of the song.

He's up there with our lady peace and eve 6
Just seen him tonight in ohio... 🔥. Gonna have a hard time getting to bed. 😂 got rained on too
@@chancock4222 just seen him tonight and he killed it, so she lieddddd
@@amandahenry9207 If he killed it I'd say she was spot on.
Matchbox twenty getting me through this quarantine
CadeC same
More terrible times nigh
Exactly, getting ready to see them live this year!
You got suckered.
Rob Thomas is such a natural. No matter what he sings,he makes it sound good!
I'm 48, I started listening to Matchbox 20 since I was in my early 20's!!!
Matchbox 20 will forever be a LEGENDARY band. Their songs have always saved me from bad days. Thank you guys. Really. Greetings from Venezuela!
wow do venezuela still have intenet ??
(it is a joke pls don't kill me :p )
Hey Alfred! I won't hahaha it's a sad reality. I am in Mexico now but home will be Venezuela in my heart.
This song rocks
There would be alot of bad days in Venezuela I imagine
Forever and always one of THE BEST song/video combos of all time
Not sure if this makes you a legend listening to it years later, but it shows you have good taste in music.

Me. I'm here in 2024. Saw the group in NH. They do a fabulous show.
Could easily become a 2020s hit.
Definitely should be mate
ABSOLUTELY!
Hit in any decade, it is brilliant, Love it.
RIGHT ON🙃
This was one of my 2021 hits 😂
If you're still listening to this song today, you just found a treasure.
this came up on my Spotify randomly and I've had it on repeat ever since.

June 2023 and first time hearing it ❤
July 2024 ;)
Props to the guy playing the drums while they are ON FIRE! This video is wicked and the song is great. Kudos.

They-
You know they're not *actually* on-
Actually, nevermind. Keep your purity.
His name is Paul Doucette. He actually got burned during the recording of this video..
@@winn5736from Time: Were there any really scary moments during the shoot?
Paul [Doucette, Matchbox Twenty’s drummer,] on fire was really scary. We kind of thought you’d set the drums on fire and you’d do it once. Paul is literally, physically playing these drums while they’re blazing up. And then they’re like, “We need to do it again to get another shot.” We wound up doing it maybe four different times, and each time Paul’s getting redder and redder and he’s literally emanating heat from himself. That was kind of scary. And the part where people got hurt the most was, oddly enough, when they were throwing the albums. Those little f-ers are thin and sharp!
And she came way too close with that one record almost hitting Rob in the face! @@kimberly1371
I gotta say, silent acting is some of the best acting you can do, conveying so much with just body language. I don't know who the girl in this video is, but she nails this role. Well done.
I know this comment is three months old, but I got to say I totally agree. I could practically smell whatever was in that jar. And I could definitely hear her go "eh, whatever" as she decides to drink it anyway.
Danish model - Stephanie Corneliussen
Has she gone off into acting? She silently played the role of spoiledbratabsoluteb*tch to a tee! Not a bad song, either. Could have easily been half as long if Rob or the drummer, or ANYbody had just thrown her butt out the window. 😎
The drummers enjoying the hell out of this song.
Suit+drums=NICE!
2024 yes!! I be here and loving it!!!🎉😂❤😊
So I vote for Matchbox 20 for the next Superbowl halftime show we ever have.
Definitely!!👍
They're too good to ever be invited. Superbowl half-time invites only go to trash and has-beens these days. Would love to see that change, tho!
Rob Thomas is one of the best if not the best composer and singer I've ever heard in my 30 years of existence. MB20 songs needs more love.
Oh my gosh! This was my favourite childhood song and I've been trying to remember the lyrics for MONTHS and I FINALLY found the song!! It's definitely as great as I remembered
SAMEEE
After seven years i found it
First time I've ever heard of this song
I've tried to answer all of you but most of us know i hope we all can take this and embrace it as a man You'll never f
I’m rediscovering Matchbox 20, 20 years since I last heard about them❤ I just fell in love again ❤
Matchbox twenty releases some awesome shit...especially in the 90s...its one of the more modern bands that I think has real talent and makes seriously good music
Something you won't find in this song!
More like “especially in the 90s/2000s.” All of their albums are quality and only one came out in the 90s.
2022, and still in love with Matchbox 20. Their music age so damn well!
New album coming soon. Bring it!!
@@bob_sandvagene when?
I like them better now then I did before! Their songs are very unique and I love Rob Thomas

This is about owning a cat
I love everything about this song and video. Especially Rob's smile/silent laugh at the end.
Rob is so talented n all members are so gifted..i love them..been listening since 96
This song so underrated. It would be a hit Today
She's basically a cat.

Exactly what I thought to that lyric. My briano went right to Dr. Wigglesbig.
Genuine Peach I have always wanted a "Man" like a cat, that's all that angel needs😉lol
ahhHHHhhaha..i see
Lmaooo gawd
Can’t wait for their new music to release in 2022! They are finishing up an EP.
And hopefully touring next year
this guys never grows old. matchbox 20 all the way

Absolutely in love with this song at the moment,
Porshia Johnson im with you *high five*
Just randomly remembered this song? I used to love it. The feeling of recognising it was so wild I’m in shock …
this song still bops in 2021! 😎 one of my favorite matchbox twenty songs!
The drums are everything in this song
That drummer is incredible! No fire scares him. ;P
Lisa Cunningham that was real fire right there!! so cool, right?
He was playing straight fire
+Trysten W. The fire isn't actually there, if you pause right before it hits the set you'll notice there is no match stick, just a flame.
+adster98 no there is the match stick i saw it. you just barely see it but it is there
+Lisa Cunningham he's pretty badass.
I get nostalgic and just go back to this song because I remember I used to jam so hard to this
I totally forgot about this song!
+liza Nostalgic..? Oh yes! The good old times, when we where young and carefree... Live was easy and the world healthy back than. After all 4(!) years are gone since that.
The drum fills in this song are straight fire yo
Seen them everytime in michigan..Never a Bad Show..Keep Rockin🤘🖤🎸💯

You ever feel that rush. !
I remember hearing this when I was younger and I just found this recently and still remembered almost every lyric in the first verse/chorus.
Just Some Skeleton same. Me and this random girl who moved away a while ago loved this song in middle school lol.
This song is STILL FIRE in 2020.... MB20 for LIFE!!!
That feeling when you come back to MB20 after years and its just as good as you remember
...these guys blend together so well!! Great music. 🤗
-9 years later, If you're still watching this you're a legend.

What about the drummer😈😈😈😈????
Just because he wet his lips????😂😂😂😂😂

I'm so glad Matchbox 20 is back! Rob Thomas is awesome.
Can't believe it's been 7 years man!
I loved this song when it came out
Wearing a suit and playing drums always looks cool
it does!
Andrew Lamb correct true
The suit apparently belongs to you.....so up yours
it's even cooler, the drums are on fire.
he wears a suit in most of the video's .....I love it!
this must be the soundtrack of The mean Girls, haha! love it
One of my best artist ....love u guys.....we will never meet ,never see each one of us but still love ur songs will always be...still from the very first album"UNWELL"&"THE DIFFERENCE"...👌👌👌👌👌👌
Here in 2019. Who else still hooked with this song? 😍❤️
Me. He's so dreamy.
awesome
Me!!!!!#RobThomasLover4Life!!!
I love his talent! But I also really think that drummer is absolutely one of the best! I love watching him in this song! Great song!
😍🤤this is love
Rob's faces though :) so cute.
I think this is the best song they ever did, personally.
I guess you didn't heard 'UNWELL'
I'm still watching!! It's been overc25 years since I've found this group of wonderful, amazing and awesome entertainers! Totally love Matchbox Twenty20!! Thank you for such amazing memories and awesome music! 💯❤️ 🎶 🎵
Rob Thomas just keeps on getting better, and sexier, with age! He made me fall in love with music all over again 😍
rob thomas are you still marry to the same girl asking for your cell phone member just me rob thomas i dont have it on my phone rob thomas
I love the part where she sets the drums on fire. it's so cool!!!!
Love the Drums in this song.
Rob Thomas and Matchbox 20 goes so good together. Well done you guys. Massive respect for this song and your talent
How many hooks does this song throw at you before it even gets to the chorus? Fantastic songwriting and production.
That on point when You catch her doing crazy stuff
One of the few songs written in the new millennium that could have held its own in the 70's, or any other decade!
Haha no
One of the few? Lmao. Tell me you don't listen to much music without telling me you don't listen to much music.
Rob has been writing stuff that makes me smile and the things that my soul feels but I don’t have words for going on 20 years now.
Keep it up MB20, America’s better with you!
This song is the actual greatest piece of music ever written
Her name is Stephanie Corneliussen and she’s Joanna Wellick in Mr. Robot
She really needs some Eyebrows!
At 0:32 they don't look thin to me.
I was thinking she looked like Jennifer Garner (from like, 2003?) at times but this answers the questions I had, thanks ^^
And a Dane/viking woman ;)
Thank you! You saved me from going crazy thinking where I have seen her
I remember hearing this song on the radio all the time when it came out, ive been looking for it ever since. good song
Felt classic already at 12.
It's 2012 and you just finished school for the day. You come home and load up Halo Reach and listen to this while playing with your buddy. Life is good.

Meus pêsames
This song is addictive
oh my god, this is the song I've been looking for all this time, accompany me in the struggle ☺️💪
The guys keep playing even though she's f---ing around with them. Nobody stops to grab her. Now that's dedication to the MUSIC!
its a music video ffs... its just to capture the theme of the song with visuals to get the message across they are not actually playing in the video
dedication to Music begins when you are ready to give up on many things in order to play your music like a lot of bands did in the past.
I personally have nothing against these guys but their lyrics are pretty much replacable with the most bands singing about relationships and personalitys of women or men
just think they are overproduced would love to hear some stuff from before they have become famous
