  • I like the long locks better

  • WOAH I never imagined seeing something like this for Rob.....but damn, if that's not amazing, I don't know what is. Kudos to you, Rob. <3

  • He looks soooo handsome!!!!!!!! GOSH

  • Rob, you are something else.... I wish I could have this video!!!!! AWESOME

  • Like any woman involved with Rob Thomas would ever push his love. They would do anything to keep him around (almost anything) & I bet he never has trouble keeping a woman. It would be the other way-- I can visualize him pushing a woman to the extreme & being an ass about it.

  • stalkers national anthem?

  • @belziebub too funny especially since I'm a Kevin Max stalker fan!

  • Lovely, Rob. The video and audio sort of suck, though...definiteley doesn't do your beautiful voice justice. Thank you for sharing.

  • @Coven69 he did a wonderful job

  • quite simply amazing!!!

  • quite simply amazing!!!

  • Freaking awesome! Rob, you are the best out there

  • Rob Thomas is amazing.

  • You can takeany song and make it your own by rearranging it..Good job!!

  • in this song does he want someone to set him free or take the relationship serious? he says he does not want to be a prisoner so set him free then sings about wanting to be in a relationship- confusing

  • Just amazing. As always.

  • Rob, sorry I didn't hear this before. I am a big Madonna fan, but this goes deep into the soul, more emotion. Your music helps me get through different events that have happened in my life. Especially, Smooth. While my mom was sick (2 1/2 yrs) I watched the video (Supernatural) and it always gave me the get up and go for another day.She left in Aug but you gave me the strength to go on. What I wouldn't give to see Carlos and you to do something again. You are definitely being looked down on.

  • Love it!

  • When you hear an amazing singer/songwriter/musician such as Rob sing a song that's meant to be all poppy and meaningless it changes the song completely. It also sheds light on how empty the songs are when compared to ANY songs done by Rob or MatchboxTwenty. Love Rob and love the band. He's as real as they come, one of the greats and deserves high praises for his ambitious, heartfelt ballads of heartbreak, love, and hate.

  • Man you out do yourself everytime. CFOB

  • Excellent cover of a Madonna's song. Thanks Rob!

  • very nice song though, is there any another Music Video of this heart warming song???....

  • Rob Thomas is awesome.....

  • Beautiful and heartfelt.. It's a swirls like a quiet and personal moment and i feel privy to be a witness to it,, Thank you for moving me so deeply.

  • Amazing Voice.

  • i love Rob Thomas ever since when we was in Matchbox.nice rendition!

  • He's STILL in Matchbox!

  • No to oczywiście, że lepsze wykonanie niż Madonny phe he he:D

  • Nice different take on an awesome song.

  • man, i love him.

  • yeah but if she had the intelligence to perform it like this then I think she'd fall in love with it all over again?

  • what year was this taped??? this is an amazing cover by RT :)

  • 2005, I believe.

    I think it was something to do with his first solo album

  • i have the cd... it isn't on there. maybe it is on the dvd side which i could never get working lol :)

    thank you though TaraCynara

  • Yea, I think he did the cover just for those acoustic things and possibly for some concerts. I doubt he ever recorded it, though.

  • i love you rob...

  • yes after major begging from the tour director. its a fan favorite and she eventually decided she would do it if she could rework the song. hence the rock version. blender magazine did an entire article on madonna's dislike for this song a few months ago. look it up.

  • This is my all-time favorite cover Rob Thomas has ever done, I love the original but this is so different and Rob's voice just takes my breath away! Thanks for posting!

  • Madonna did write this song "lyrically". And she hates it to this day for some reason. I am not a fan of matchbox 20 or Rob Thomas, but I love this version. good on you Rob!

  • who says she hates that song?

  • danide ti amolo tanto questa è la nostra canzone e lo sarà per sempre....tuo calimero

  • just try to understand..ive given all i can

    coz u got the best of me...

  • u just keep on pushing my love over the borderline...

  • just wished dat dis one has a louder audio,just downloaded it and volume is too low,i can't even hear it on my phone..

    but stil,dis one is a gud video,a great rendition and rob thomas is a great...

    keep on doin ur stuff..

  • I've always liked Matchbox 20, but the more solo stuff I hear from Rob Thomas, the more I am amazed at his talent.

  • you made my day

  • same here

  • ROb THomas has a way with the keys and just his voice...like the stripped version of his " It's 3 am" song.. I love the song with just piano, I never cared too much for the radio version..

  • This performance is really beautiful. I liked how he played the piano.

  • The simplicity of the arrangement just shows how uttterly brilliant these chord changes are. Check it at 01:04 for the first immense change. Pause at 01:25 for the second epic change. Pay close attention at 01:54 for "the blue note". That's good shit. Madonna had help in writing that stuff, it takes more than style and clothing to write those changes. Any real musician will tell you the same thing.

  • I'm a musician too, and to be fair to Madonna, she IS musical, she can write music, and good music at that. However I don't think she wrote Borderline. Anyhow, you don't need to diss her to acknowledge how good this performance is.

  • @bebopPete

    Actually Madonna did not write Borderline. Her earlier work she had a lot of people write for her. She didn't really take off with production and writing until True Blue came out. She only wrote 5 out of 8 for her first album and 5 out of 9 for Like A Virgin.

  • johhny another song for you!!you just keep on pushing my love over the borderline!!smile.

  • Madonna's version is better, but this is fascinating. Jodi Whatley just covered this song. And I remember back in 2000 TLC did a countdown on MTV of their favorite music videos of all time, and Madonna's borderline was in their top 5 picks. Great song.
