Amazing song and great band, but this shows why I hate concerts; people scream any chance they get, and I don't pay to hear the guy next to me singing, At least this doesn't have bass drowning out all the vocals.
Man, I can NEVER get enough of Goo Goo Dolls! Music i can listen to until i die! lol! Thanks for sharing the vid! If you have time check out another fav band of mine, they have a brand spankin new vid, just search for "Can't Hate You + Brandon Paris Band"
love this band!!!! they rock, totally agree, down to earth, hot, funny, BRILLIANT ARTISTS who do it for the fans and not the fame!!! BEST BAND EVER - FUCK THE BEATLES, they may have changed the world - BUT THE GOO's ROCKED MINE!!!! HAZZA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! come to Australia!!!!
my fave thing about this band is how down to earth they are... I feel like even though they have had so much success they never really became "those guys" who grew up, got famous, and then lost touch... they really seem down to earth... and the lyrics are always so intense... hands down, best band in a LONG time.
This song is like his kyrptonite. He just can't play it right live! It must be one of those things where you mess up, then get nervous about messing up so you mess up again, lol. That's okay. We love you for all your flaws, John. :)
This really is a beautiful song. I just bought it on iTunes a couple days ago. Why didn't he ever give it a "real" title?
@ToriL90 John specifically did NOT want this song released as a single. He wanted it appreciated for what it is. That's why it is so short, and probably why it doesn't have a "real" title. I adore this song.
You know, I love the Goos to death, but I can't stand Brad. What the hell has he done to Acoustic #3? By very definition, the song is acoustic. I could stomache a solo by him in this song, he just has to do it on an acoustic guitar. Or a mandolin--He can play mandolin!
By why an electric guitar? He broke Acoustic #3!! *really mad face*
hey, has anyone seen their 2004 Buffalo concert?? Omg, what a wild ride: it started raining, and their electric guitars wouldn't work, so they had to go accoustic. The band & audience are soaking wet--then, John tears off his shirt, throwing it into the audience!! & despite all of this, they sounded better thruout the whole show than they did on their album!! INCREDIBLE!!
I like the self deprecation, and when he messes up and just says 'oops'. We all do that even the best; great song-writer though, many songs seem to reach out to a bit in all of us. I read a bit of his story, and he appears to have had a tough life, but he survived- good on yer, John.
It is a beautiful song and one of my faves. Wouldn't say it was the best ever tho...and i don't think it's that happy. I'm glad theres someone else out there who thinks it's excellent tho :)

This is a great quality video from a concert. ^_^ Clear, not too shaky, nice and close, and the sound is amazing. ^_^ Rock on!!
And of course this is one of the best, if not THE best Goo Goo Dolls song ever.
