Matt Good's voice is gold on the acoustic shows. It's always good but it's like he has more energy and can concentrate on his singing that much better here than band shows. That's one positive about him doing acoustic, although I generally prefer the full band versions of the albums. Sometimes it's more powerful acoustic though.
I was at 2 shows one in 2009 In Belleville And a show in 2009 in Kingston ONT that best shows i have seen in my LIFE. we need more artist like Matt he RULES!!!
"You try but you'll fail, 'cause you're bad at life, but good in a vacuum."
One of the smartest and most touching lines I've ever heard in a song. Back in the 90s when so many popular artists were cashing in on commercialized "teen angst", Matt Good was writing about real angst -- the angst of an intelligent, sensitive person simply trying to exist in a confusing, imperfect world.
My favorite song of all time! Not sure why but it has been my favorite for years god I Iove that song so much it is so pretty to listen too.I don't think I will ever get sick of hearing it, it's beautiful.
this is to canadian maple, i don't know what kind of crack you've been sniffing, im just joking, im not an ass ha. Its a taylor 612ce noted by the bridge, inlays, and headstock, all taylor signatures, i own the excat model
Anyone know what kinda guitar that is? Looks like an Ibanez AEG or AEL in Antique Cherry Violin Sunburst... I'm thinking about getting one of those, if that's what he's using then I definitely want it!
has Matt ever put out any live Dvd's? I would especially love to see born to kill, when it was still Mathew Good Band, espcially with Dave Gantz (not sure of spelling) was playing giuatar
this song is ... actually we will probably acknowledge matts goos brillance once hes dead until then people are sleeping on it, most people are asleep... i hope he will do more albums and more tours
Metallica, your dad and his friend must be pretty cool. If you're anything like your pussy ass dad who needs a friend around to do anything, then who cares what you have to say. Your dad is a douchebag.
Matthew Good is a fucking faggot. my dad and his friend almost beat the shit out of this fucking douche bag in Vancouver. i wish he did. but my dad was smart...he didnt hit him because he knew matthew would be a fucking pussy and sue him...GOD WHAT A FUCKING FAGGOT THIS GUY IS!!
your dads a homo for not being able to fight by himself and needing his lover...i mean friend, to help him. and the apple dont fall far from the tree u cock sucker.
why did they want to beat him up? did he catch your dad bum banging his friend? why is he a douchebag because he doesn't play the type of music that your infantile brain likes? im sure your dad and his friend just had one too many drinks at the gay bar and went out picking fights. get your head out your ass metallica
Grow up. Obviously you don't appreciate free thought. You place no grounds for your biased opinion of a fantastic artist. Keep you pethetic tweleve year old rants to yourself.
ohhh my goodness... someone make him come to Nova Scotia... Matthew Good is one of my top inspirations, he is my hero, as tacky as that sounds. I love his prospective on life, etc. His book "At Last There is Nothing Left to Say" was amazing and I suggest reading it.
This song gives me the chills
