Dave Matthews Band-The Idea Of You Debut 6-2-2006 DeerCreek

[Gwayne11]

agreed...awesome performance

[always4041]

This is my favorite version!

[phasinated420]

i feel like the way he sings the chorus in this song is the reason why its so great

[wolfpacguy]

this is like a perfect song for an encore

[erock81487]

love this song.. man.. first time i heard it.. kinda made me sad to be honest.. just.. kinda brings back memories of past things.. girls, love.. summer.. all of it.. but absolutely great song.

[Lonelyfm]

God I love this version. I can't believe this song isn't gonna be on the new album. I was so eager to see what the final lyrics turned out to be, but that's what makes DMB so great. They write phenomenal songs like nothin' and don't even put them on the album. Although, every time I hear it I wanna cry cuz I miss Leroi.

Long live DMB and Leroi Moore...

This band has been short on moments that give you chills for quite some time now. The last time a song like this clicked with me was probably when Grey Street was first played live. Incredible. Those moments have been so rare over the last few years although I will give a big tip of the hat to American Baby Intro...just hot.

[mark2242tw]

are you kidding me....you obviously not a fan...theyve had so many recently and in the past...its been "short on moments" in your faggot words btw....that theres been a song where ive not thought..."this band gives me chills or that dave is absolutely amazing"

[STREBohhh]

i agree, i don't think your words are "faggot words" either (see below)... :) this song is special, and this version is still my favorite from the moment I heard it...

[jfloyd82]

I still remember that afternoon listening to this being sound checked while across the street at Sleepy Bear...thinking thats a new song! Then hearing this version of it was rare,very soulful and rythmic, and just plain AMAZING!

[paye32]

Yeah, I was at this concert and fell in love with this version. Definitely the best performance they've had of this song.

[stallion1381]

god damn i miss this version. they need to slow it back down like this and not try and drive it into the ground like they did last year.

[jlatham]

This is the all time best performance.....

[missmk10]

hahaah strebohhh you're radd :]

[defaultuser123]

this song is love and summer. there's a kind of joy here that goes beyond the words--if you've ever seen them play outside under the stars, especially with a song like this, i'm sure you know what i'm talking about.

[dkatz0]

well, considering this was the first performance i can't expect it to be spot on musically. but the energy of the band from this one still makes it my favorite.

[TannerDMB41]

missmk10- I have to agree with you, in the chorus in of this video, it seems like he struggles in those high notes.. but in Fenway, he always had it on the money, thats what makes the song great, but hey, every version of a dmb song is the best version because its the best of whats around

[Gojulas895]

Best of what's around is right. Occasionally I find myself listening to a string of live versions of Crash Into Me or #41 in my collection because they are all different yet great. Lol, I can't hit those high notes so I have no complaints myself, played great for a first time...

[13skinsfan69]

LOL!!!!! damn straight!

[JimmyPageisGOD]

Im going to see him there august 17th!!

[missmk10]

the version of this song that he did at fenway was sooooo much better but this one is reallllly good too!!!!

[missmk10]

i love this song... makes me cry because it makes me think of my significant other!! haha

[STREBohhh]

yea i def. teared up first time I heard it- still does

[greystreeter41]

this is not the best version. granted, its the debut, but this is a train wreck.

[bbr89]

HAHA You're a fucking dumbass.

[cityondown36]

I love this song.  Second favorite from this summer.

[bdowbor]

lol

[maherhar102502]

shut up and just enjoy the music

[Stangr20]

I was at this show, hopefully Dave realizes this is the best version of this song he had all year... It seems that everytime the premier of a song with them comes out, it is the best, then they change and ruin the song, ie. Good Good Time. Saw the debut of that one in Chicago too.. (with the band, not Dave and Friends)
