  • Certain songs by these guys go so unoticed, this one especially....along with sympathy and black baloon.

  • i think of my mother each time i listen to this song because she got sick before she was able to see her dreams fulfilled

  • @BabyPheonix1 keep your head up and find your motivation in this song, never give up ;)

  • Its good to know that my brother influenced me about their songs! Love it!

  • the goo goo dolls were my first concert.

  • @Indabaz same, I saw them when I was 9 years old lol.

  • The audio quality is shit, but otherwise a very good song to listen to.

  • "you're voice is small and fading, and you hide in here unknown, and your mother loves your father cuz she's got nowhere to go. and she wonders where these dreams go, cuz the world got in her way. what's the point of ever trying? nothing's changing anyway." These lines basically describe my entire teenage existence. god, i love this song.

  • i cant believe this! I live really close to this spot. my house is at the knik river right by the butte, i fly my champion up the glacier all the time

  • the number of girls who are unaware that things i tell them are from these beautiful songs.............. ;)

  • @DrewGstrang DUDE!!!!! DIITTTO

  • I can relate to these songs... GOD... I wish i could find a girl who didn't take me for granted. I was raised this way. I turned my phone off completely everytime im in this girls presence. and she ask me why. I told her it's because when im with you, I'm with just you. she said "you probably have something to hide" smh

    "and the least they ever gave you, was the most you ever knew"

  • John is way under estimated as a singer song writer!

  • Wow....he's just incredible. I had goosebumps just watching this. Love this song...love the Goo Goo Dolls <3

  • John is way under estimated as a singer song writer!

    He's been through so much and as much as I would loved them to stand strong as a punk band I can appreciate all their music so much! through the years of having NO ONE to talk to that would understand Goo Goo Dolls became my Haven in high school, many many nights through many loves, THEY ARE STILL MY #1! I hope as my son gets older he will too enjoy them as I did! My "goo goo dolls lullaby's" This band is just soothing to the soul!!!

  • I relate to this song so much...the Goo Goo Dolls are just amazing, and yes, VERY under-rated.

  • yes yes n look at that beautiful cleft in his chin too, mmmm

  • haha, sounds like he hit the B string on the first play of the riff

  • I really like this song. I just wish it was longer.

  • After production, they left him there and came back after dinner. He didn't get the joke.lol

  • haha good luck

  • you pronounce it acoustic #3 thats the name of the song

  • how do you pronounce the title?

  • I would assume "Acoustic number three"

  • It doesn't seem so new.... there just not popular... (saw theirs video, and its almost 4 years old)..

  • Goo is still popular. They've been working on a new album, Something for the Rest Of Us. Expected release, spring of 2010.

  • hehe :))

    I didn't speak about Goo Goo Dolls. Its my favorite band. Though it could be more popular.. Would like to hear Goo Goo Dolls from radio here in Finland..

    I commented Killhowes comment about "new band"

    Bless you ;)

  • @Uchih4C1oud

    This song is from their 98 album Dizzy Up The Girl Which also has their movie hit IRIS From City Of Angels!

    If ANYONE EVER wonders why they never before heard this its because IRIS, Slide And Black Balloon took the lime light on that album! This is such a wonderful song I wish that it hit the air waves as a strange random HIT but they may say it is too short! I would fight that asking about

    Blur song 2

  • ANOTHER GREAT BAND FROM BUFFALO !!!

  • the song is called acoustic #3

  • There is no band who can express my emotions so good as the Goo Goo Dolls can..

    I love the voice of John, amazing :)

  • Its so simple yet so effective. Makes me smile deeply.

  • John's song writing is so ....tragically beautiful ..a rare gift indeed .....Love this song ......

  • very nice song..nice lyrics

  • this is one of their most beautiful songs. I love you guys <3

  • i remember listening to this when i was about 12 thought it was great ha i think i even learned how to play this (easiest song ever)

  • incredible song.. one of my favorites.. it calms you.. very moving

  • I always thought it was "no one's listening anyway". Are there other versions or am I just deaf?

    Either way, great song.

  • 1st verse: No ones listening anyway

    3rd verse: im not listening anyway

    think he just changed it on accident

  • The first verse is "No one's listening", and the third is "You're not listening anyway". I think that the third verse refers to unrequited love, or something of the sort, because he says that he can't see right through someone, and though he is screaming for them to notice, they aren't listening to him. Just my take.

  • ...because he says he *can* see right through someone...

    Typo, sorry.

  • this song always makes me cry its buetiful

  • the song is poetic and soft  feel comfortable~

  • stupenda canzone...wonderful song

  • Grrrrrrrr!!!!!

  • this band is so underrated... :'(

  • Awesome songwriter, Goo Goo Dolls are awesome as is John, he is a superstar.

  • I Love This Song *-*

    Goo Goo Dolls Foreveer ♥

  • "What's the point in all this screaming? No one's listening anyway"

    My favorite line.

  • yea me 2, i love this guy's lyrics.

  • my favorite is "YOUR not listening anyway"

  • That one's good too. Sounds like something I've said to my husband. LOL

  • lol

  • Yeh he is great terrific singer and can play with his own style no one else has

  • Johnny is amazing...he's one of the few singers who can really sing live...

    Goo Goo Dolls rock! =)

  • @xJustxJulesx i agree 100% on that

  • @xJustxJulesx i agree

  • what an under-rated band... what an under-rated songwriter... he's so amazing...

  • u'r SO right. I don't have ANY friends who r goo goo dolls fans, for some reason they just dismiss them as a one-hit wonder 'iris.' I just don't understand how ppl could think that the goo goo dolls arn't good.

  • Same here. Let's be friends. Haha

  • lol "one-hit wonder" is a better response than "who are they?"

  • @mikebtko yeah thats because all the mainstream crap gets it

  • Don't even say that! The Goo Goo Dolls will forever be together!

  • love the song! to bad it's so short. could use another couple vrs.

  • your so right this song could use another couple vrs

  • this song is so underrated

  • That's what I'm saying haha..

  • best song ever

  • i love goo goo dolls

  • Is there an Acoustic #1 and #2? Or #4? Lol I was just wondering, cause if there are, I need to get them.

  • i laughed

    lol

  • lol yeah i bet there is. im guessing he just wrote this song and labeled it acoustic 3 and it made it on to the album and that became the title or something like that. me and my imagination again.

  • I really like this song. One of my all time favorites. When I first heard it I loved it, but I didn't know the name of it. Later on I find out it is Acoustic #3 on their album lol. Anyone know the story behind this song? I heard it is pretty cool.

  • it seems like a reference to Harlem by Langston Hughes

  • love his hair ! :D

  • I feel like when I hear this song he is singing to me. I just love this song, the tone, the words, the music, and this is just such a beautiful place.

  • I dont know this song at first but when I first hear it, I was immensely captivated by it. :DD

  • john has one of the most beautiful voices i've ever heard.this is my favourite goo goo dolls song.i love their old stuff, hope they change back to their old sound.

  • That's talent right there =D

  • The scenery in this video is so serene and beautiful.  Puts me in a peaceful, reflective mood. The direct opposite of this hectic world.

  • wow..u had no life.i pity you dude.

  • just so everyone knows that was to marfg12345 not to the person above my first comment idk why anyone would minus it

  • hahaha thats funny you know cuz i love the goo goo dolls yet i also listen to metal so your gay

  • Goo Goo Dolls and Metallica are totally different from eachother. You can't really say one is better than the other. It's fine that you like Metallica, but that's no reason to say Goo Goo Dolls suck.

  • this song kicks ass, i like everything from mercy me to pantera, so dont be cuttin on the goo's

  • great song by the Goo Goo Dolls ^__^

  • patrixacutie I could on agree more. I was going to leave a comment kind of like yours, but you took the worda from right from me. Nicely said.

  • this song reminds me of my best friend Chloe, she is young and beautiful but her parents' and sisters' push her down when she is finally on her high!

    i love you chica once and forever=]

  • you would say that, stupid metal shit head keep ,your shitty metal to yourself . they arnt even the same genre i dont know why you would even compare the bands ,your an idiot .

  • what did he say

  • some idiot said this song sucks and mettalica is better .

  • thats a stupid comment. I love Metallica but I like The Goo's beeter. He was an idiot

  • And what exactly is your point in watching this video? To me it seems very simple: if you don't like it, don't ruin it for the many others who like it.

  • I LOVE THIS SONG !!!

  • yea...so true. i know it all too well

  • omg i remember this was on tv.

  • that is the most intense and clear water ever!
