  • One of the few live bands that sound better than in the studio. F'n Rob Thomas sings flawless every time.

  • I'm not going to be a crutch for you or allow you to be mine. I just love this song and love...well you know.

  • The live version is much better than the record...!

  • Comment removed

  • this was my favorite song on the album. 3 all 5 members

  • i could hear the choir in my head as he was singing lol. i love the lyrics to this song. flawless.

  • @magwire12 me too!

  • Everyone! Check out our channel - Lyrical Genius such as "My Porno Woman" ;-) Upcoming "Drunk Fresher" & "She's Got a Dick" Give it a watch! Peace x

    :)

  • great!

    

  • This is the greatest concert dvd I have ever seen. Completely flawless performance

  • I wanted to read all the sentences.. :(

  • I wanted you to linger...

  • the 5 piece formation is the best.... Rob, Kyle, Adam, Paul, Bryan.... miss Adam Gaynor on the rhythm guitars.... this album is the best sounded... More than You think You Are... these guys were getting better and better in the first 3 albums... the 4 members formation are not that bad in the latest album Exile on Mainstream.. but it's just not the same without Adam Gaynor..

  • @doddymomo Exactly. They were heading somewhere really special with that lineup. Underappreciated because they were part of the 90s crowd.

  • OMG!!!!! I cant stop listening to this song!!!!

  • i just killed the replay button on this one...

  • he should of got the crowd to sing "only love can save us now"

  • does anyone have the song unwell from this concert?

    

  • replay, replay, replay...<3

  • rob thomas is the best...EVER ....i call dibs on him in our next life :)

  • Amazing. Nothing describes being married and pissed off more.

  • Comment removed

  • Is there a repeat like button?

  • I think Rob is almost as beautiful as his music ;)

  • @texTwilight13 very rare do you find someone whom is beautiful inside and out like Rob Thomas but he does have a bad side to him-- he is beautiful inside but has a dark side which can be very cruel

  • i seriously have not heard this song n like 2 years and i swear to god when i just listened to it i almost broke down into tears..long live matchbox twenty !!!!! :)

  • Shit . I acualy thought this is a COB cover

    but this is still good

  • my fav band

  • Y'all do know, at the end he says "Is it me or did she paint it black?" not "Kissing me, your lips painted black". Just sayin'.

  • So much passion and great lyrics

  • This video should be renamed to "Try not to press the replay button."

    I will accept failure.

  • Too bad for this song that doesn't have official music video...

    MB20 <3!

  • I just raped the replay button. Again.

  • REPLAY AND REPLAY

  • this is just true passion

  • my ex used to always say... "all their shit sounds the same" notice i say my EX

  • I have no words for how wonderful this is

  • One of Matchbox 20's greatest songs ever... HOW DID THIS NOT GET COMMERCIALISED!?!? SHARE THE EPICNESS OF THIS SONG!!!

  • This DVD Show is a blast!!! Excellent performance of the band with a great track list.

    No doubt, MB20 rocks!!!

    Cheers, mates.

  • my all time favourite. love it, love it, love it.

  • lay it down, I've always been with you here and now.

  • This version is great because it is just Mb20 and not the random women from the track version

  • 7 dislikes..........

    Why do I get the feeling that thoose ones are the kind of people that you would love to see Jason Voorhees get his hands on?

    I don't know, but that is the image I get.......

  • make me laugh at those who vote against .. if they do not like rob thomas, why do you listen his music?

  • Something about this song makes me want to cry.........

  • The 7 people that clicked "Dislike" thought it said "Dis I like".

  • this is my favourite matchbox 20 song, its freakin awesome!

  • Nothing can compare to the passion that Rob Thomas transmits into their songs. Other Artist can only hope to be half as good as him.

  • Okay what the fuck do we all theese IDOL shows for!?!?!?!

    In comparison the IDOL shows sucks on an undescriblible MANY LEVELS!!!

    Fuck that shit, listen to this, Who have talent and will last longer then the sheer concept of IDOL all together.......

  • Holy shit these guys sound fucking amazing.

  • great song :)

  • His voice is flawless! Just perfect <3

  • this is really really amazing. I just can't tell if it's like religious or not? If it is I dont understand the downfall part... it seems more about a relationship to me.

  • @marusia949 As far as my knowledge of Rob's feelings on his music goes, is that everything he wirtes has personal meaning, but he also feels the point of great art is for every person to make it their own. I personally think the song is an ode to existence, because no matter who the relationship is with (whether that of a god and a mortal or that of two people) it's taking a step back and being humble as saying "hey, I am nothing without you". :)

    MB20 forever!!!

  • as if this song wasn't beast enough they added the effin choir that just made it RIDICULOUS! i love this song! :D

  • such a good voice

  • What a beautiful song.

  • love this song, this band and Rob Thomas is my favorite singer of all time!!!

    does anyone know if they split up for good?

  • @heyrayadele they're recording this fall. its expected to release next year

  • never tire of this.

  • Hey does anyone know where i can find the album version online? The one with the choir singing too?

  • you can find this song on napster!

  • @sspitcher1513 I have a video of the album version on my page

  • nah 3.00 min onwards... unreal!!!

  • Intense, professional, a fucking fantastic song. There best song, and the texts in the background is a good touch.  Beeeee my savior!!!! And I will be your Downfal!!

  • kyle is a BEAST!!! amazing.

  • Matchbox Twenty and one of the best bands ever formed and still are. They are just as good live as they are on the record, perhaps even better, and have such soul :D Downfall is one of my favourites :D

  • The best Matchbox song ever...LOVE IT and THEM.

  • Absolutley. How I would have loved to have seen this live :D

  • simply S I C K

  • definitely the best of matchbox 20... and therefore one of the best songs of all time.

    IMMENSE!!

  • Epic song of greatness...

  • at 3:00.... this song gets FANTASTIC.....

    I love his vocals.

  • I Think the song gets FANTASTIC from 0:00

  • great, great song !! Live performance way better then CD.

  • This completely describes what I went through with my ex :-(

    "I wonder how you sleep. I wonder what you think of me. If I could go back, would you have ever been with me?"

    *sigh*

    and now I'm back on my own.

  • i feel you. ditto

  • This band can be compared to NONE. One of the greatest bands ever in my huble opinion and yes, they will stand the test of time.

    Thanks for posting this, it's fabulous!

  • I know right? They were GREAT. And I mean great as in how we say Led Zeppelin or any of those bands were great. They could rock like no other. They had such a good modern rock sound but also payed tribute and respect to the classic vibe. Unique and awesome. Losing one of their guitarists ruined them IMO

  • the drummers really getting into it!

  • +20/5

  • Its a shame that most people think group matchbox with bands like third eye blind, three doors down, and nickelback. if people looked past the stereotypical label of mainstream pop they would discover an enormous talent and a catalogue that can withstand the test of time.

  • Third Eye Blind, Three Doors Down, Nickelback. These bands have enormous talent, as well. Nickelback is fronted by a phenomenal vocalist. Although I don't care for TDD or Nickelback's music, they are very talented. Third Eye Blind is my favorite band and Matchbox is my second. They are some of the most talented people in the business. But you're right. There is a blemish on bands that are considered "mainstream pop"...

  • unreal song

  • Thanks.

  • What is on the screen at 2:07?

  • think its are you more than you think you are?

  • @InfiniteKnowlege yeah it's "Are you more than you think you are?"

  • @InfiniteKnowlege Are you more you think you are?

  • That guitarist is phenomenal playing live!!

    I didn't notice it at first cause the singer is so freakin good live.

  • Dragged reluctantly by mates to see them in Manchester England years ago .... still ranks as 1 of the best ever gigs i saw

  • Matchbox Twenty is just amazing. This song is one of my favorites, I can't believe it wasn't ever all that popular on the charts.

  • the difference between rob thomas and other singers/musicians is i feel his passion when hes singing... few artists have that ability

  • @bopsro Very true he is 1 of the few artists that actually envoke emotions that I nearly forgot I had with his awesome music. I feel more and more human the more of his music I listen to. Very powerful stuff!

  • @bopsro

    Brandon Flowers and Jason Mraz are the only ones I can think of that have that same passion when they sing their lyrics. Rob is amazing.

  • Comment removed

  • This is back when they were still great. The new stuff just doesn't do it for me.

  • fodãoooooooooooooooooooooooooo a melhorr de todassssssssssss

  • Rob Thomas is so awesome. Everything he sings is great. He puts the M in music. I never get tired of him.

  • gracious. i think i just fell in love.

  • i love this song, matchbox 20 is amazing!!!

  • Gawd i would have loved to be there! Great performance!!!! Their greatest song.

  • man... i never really thought about it until i watched a live performance, but there guitarist can JAM !!!

  • umm...do you understand what jamming is? It's a great performance, but he's playing the exact same thing he did on the album..not improvisation and not jamming.

  • i wake up thinking of this song , like i was dreaming about it,lol

  • love this song wat a singer

  • i LOVE that song!!

  • Damm he is good. WOW

  • Of all the Matchbox tunes this is my favourite. I was lucky enough to see this exact tour. It was one of the best concerts i have ever been to. My girlfriend and i r huge fans, she even says i look like Rob lol. These guys r the real deal and we will be talking about them till we die. Keep rockin Rob and Matchbox 20. Fans for life!

  • amazing!

  • Comment removed

  • This is my favorite MB20 song ever. The emotion, the lyrics, everything is incredible, and watching them push it to the max live just makes it that much better.

  • I completely agree!! i would love to see them live but they would prbly never come to my small town =(

  • put a download link in

  • honestly they are AMAZING live! Its incredible! I love how they are so down to earth even though they are these amazing and super popular artists.

  • oh gawd that gave me shivers what an awesome song

  • fucking unbelievable

    awesome song even better band

  • "I've always been with you"

    Gosh this song brings me so close to tears everytime I hear it :) Great performance.

  • Simply amazing!!!

  • Kyle tears it up on that guitar.

  • i believe this to be the most perfect live song i have ever seen or heard it it is quite simply flawless

  • jesus his voice is perfect.:)

  • Just because it says be my savior does not quantify it as a christian song. Also it follows with I'll be your downfall. Given some of the themes from their other songs, I doubt we will see anything christian from them.

  • Exactly. I agree.

  • I was a little disappointed that they didn't have the background vocals at this concert.

    GREAT SONG AND BAND!!!!!!!!!!!

  • amazing!

    my favourite band, and my favourite song, live

    what i would do to watch them sing this song!!

    fucking love matchbox 20!!!!!!

  • Totally Agree^^

  • Kyle's really feeling the music at 4:19

  • I went to this show and it was amazing. Im 16 years old and i've already seen them twice. i love them so much. They are my favorite band!!

  • Interesting hearing this song stripped of the choral backing vocals. It comes across quite well.

  • WoOoOoOW I'd like to attend one of his shows !

  • You have got to. They are amazing live. They sound just like the studio!!

  • i love a band that sounds the same on cd and live...shows real talent

  • they're even better live

  • They are 100% better live

  • I like the questions that flash through this song... Do you like your life... Do you trust yourself... What do you believe in... Do you count your blessings... Are you more than you think you are... good questions to help you think...

  • agreed!

  • dey're fuckin great live...

  • yep! awesome song! rob thomas is an absolute genious & great entertainer.. went to see them this year and it has without a doubt, so far been the best concert i have ever been to! rob is one of the best singer/songwriters around!

  • Love this song! love this version! There are also some really awesome live versions from their tour. They totally rock and RT is getting better and better; dreamier and dremier... Thx for posting... Ree~

  • I totally agree. Every fan of Matchbox 20 that I know of lists this song as one of their favorites by the band, yet it never became one of their big hits. I just don't understand!

    I love pretty much every song that Matchbox 20 produces, but this one has been my favorite since the moment I first heard it. And that is rare. And amazing, different variations like this live version help keep it fresh. Brilliant!

  • Its sad how such a great song is underrated....This band and this song is fabulous! I've loved this song for years, I love this song now, and I'm pretty sure Im going to love this song forever...@ big thumbs up. Go ROB THOMAS!

  • De puta madre! Awesome

  • The live version is much better than the studio version Rob Thomas` voice is so great.

  • good,this is one of the best!

  • Love it! :D

  • possibly the best live band i have ever seen!

    amazing

  • Just went to there show!  WOW

  • if you look up under rated under appreciated or even underestimated in the dictionary there will be a picture of this band- luv the song love the band RT has gotta be one of best live singers out there

  • mb20 is sorry underated just its really sad

  • Great band, great song, great performance...nothing more to say !!!

  • Awesome performance.  I wish the choir was there. The organ sounds awesome. Underrated band, but they're awesome.

  • This song is so amazing! My absolute favorite... Just awesome!

  • this is their best song ever...

  • i went to see them in april this year and was so happy wen they played this song! its my favourite by them. does anyone know exactly wat the words in white on the screen behind them say?
