[XxBloodyCrumpet23xX]

[jess76310]

My mom said this sucks. wtf?

[IronGinkgo]

@jess76310 SHE does not KNOW lol.

[LoveBexxxxx]

@jess76310 HAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAA. Tell your mother to get her ears checked.

[dancingnancy09]

@jess76310 no offence or disrespect but if your mum thinks this song sucks then she is very VERY wrong- thats the nice respectful way of saying it

[unclefreddie14]

@jess76310 your mom shouldnt be listening to music in the kitchen...she needs to focus in making them sandwiches

[mileskp44]

this song is simply fantastic

[dancingnancy09]

[ABEaglesfan1000]

I will be the happiest man in the world if I ever get to be half as good as Carter on the drums. This song is just ridiculous.

[flymarvin]

@ABEaglesfan1000 CARTER IS THA SHIZNIT

[niptuck117]

Bring on 2012 for (hopefully) a new Dave album!

[gvezmar]

13 people werent shaken like monkeys

[gbgcgymnast6116]

this is my boyfriends favorite song

so i decided 2 give it a chance :)

[snowboarder952]

How are the Jonas Brothers even being compared to this band? Not even close! Jonas Brothers are way cooler! ;D

[3000solo]

@snowboarder952

u must be joking right??????????

good one :P :P

[sdecker95]

@snowboarder952 you're fucked. seriously. jonas brothers are terrible. DAVE MATTHEWS FOR LIFE.

[snowboarder952]

@sdecker95 Sarcasm ,man. I just got back from DMB Caravan at the Gorge, which by the way was fucking incredible. But yeah I hate the Jonas Brothers. Dave is one of my favorite groups

[sdecker95]

@snowboarder952 omg he was so good there i cant even get over it. best concert i've been to.

[snowboarder952]

@sdecker95 I KNOW. haha. I seriously was kind of depressed because i had such a fucking awesome time there. Best weekend of my life hands down.

[sdecker95]

@snowboarder952 SAME. i cannoooooot wait for next year. i get so excited just thinking about it <3

[JaidThaMaid]

@sdecker95 What is happening next year?!

[sdecker95]

@JaidThaMaid dave matthews band caravan at the gorge! it happens every year

[Ugazful]

@mhh8997 you crack baby, even if they did (which they didn't) they wouldn't be able to perform it properly, hell- they can't even play a simple song like Gravity by John Mayer right. they trash everyone's songs and their own songs.

suck it.

[pacificdrumma]

Jonas Brothers. FAIL.

[mfinest13460]

13 people are totally not bros

[joereed999]

you gatta be deff to dislike this man!

[pmflix]

13 people like Justin Bieber

[sQzada]

jesus christ dave matthews band is fucking unreal

[headstock48]

@sQzada Right? I gave them a listen when they first became popular, and I thought they were okay. A few good songs, but nothing special. Then about a week ago I started watching their live shows on Youtube. UNBELIEVABLE. So, so great. Now I'm depressed because I missed their tour that just ended AND unless I want to spend 2000.00 I won't be able to see DM with Tim Reynolds in Las Vegas. Ever see them live?

[amandanicole275]

@headstock48 they are so absolutely amazing live

[JuanValdez777]

@sQzada hahaha ya but i doubt Jesus has ne thing to do with it LOL

[diequinox]

@sQzada ..AMEN!!!!!

[jimbokoolz]

One of the best musicians ever! favourite song from album! DMB Forever!

[jimbokoolz]

One of the best musicians ever! favourite song from album!

[Pharaoh43]

Did somebody actually try to make the argument that the Jonas Brothers could be compared to the Dave Matthews Band? I think that was simply done to try and get under your skin, because any intelligent person knows that's a ridiculous comparison.

Otherwise we should go ahead and say that Justin Beiber is a better singer and musician than Michael Jackson.

What's that you say? That's silly? Oh, ok. Thanks for clarifying that for me.

[trentlilly]

@Pharaoh43 we all know that the Jonas brothers aren't old enough to drink the amount of whiskey to do what dave does....it's just fact!

[storaged26]

Fcuk those jonas fcukin brothers, who cares bout them.

Just listen to that music and feel the power of DMB ! Best !

Cheers !

[lilsell18]

favorite song on the album

[lightningbolt61]

MY FAVOURITE SONG ALWAYS HAS BEEN!!!!!!!!!!

[amanderruth]

it's pretty cool dave matthews did the all the drawings for the album, it's lookin gooood!

[Hysteria150]

aaaah. just genius

[HeartandSoulOfficial]

What the F** with all the mean Jonas Comments Of course you can't compare Dave Mathews with them it's ridiculous!! I am a Jonas fan but still you can't compare them! it's insane...it is a totally different style For god!!

[TheRealEzzy]

@HeartandSoulOfficial Yeah because the jonas brothers don't have a style.  Just another disney creation

[aarontelnes]

Can you hear that? That is what you call INCREDIBLE!...The groove and big band sound of this song just show how great the musicians of Dave Matthews Band truly are. RIP Leroi Moore, your Saxophone Riffs will be dearly missed. :)

[Dhboarders]

If you like this song here, Just wait till you see it LIVE!

[jowadex]

I hear it a little, but not enough to call it unoriginal. And for all the Jonas Brother basing, I don't believe Dave would like all the hate.

[lmdigital]

This song isn't "exactly" like Word Up by Cameo. They might share some beat, and some drop-d key guitar riffs, but there are a hundred other songs that do that.

Ever notice the ones that tend to "call out" or complain the most about artists copying other artists' work tend to be the ones that haven't created a single piece of music in their lives? Everyone's a critic.

[TheDevicer]

I find it retarded that the two highest rated comments don't praise just how original, omazing, innovative, and exciting this music is. Instead, we focus on blasting pubescent sell outs... Wow. Can we save the hate on a vid that doesn't give everyone eargasms please?

[MrCharnie]

forever I am Dave's

[MrCharnie]

what year? i love it.

[MardenMay]

Just heard DMB playing this at the NFL season opener game. I thought they were playing a cover of the Cameo song, "Word Up." Glad to see i'm not the only one who hears a similarity. It's ridiculously close — like they started rehearsing a cover, at their own tempo/style, and decided to change the lyrics. Larry Blackmon should consult an attorney....

[mccallionr]

THIS SOUNDS EXACTLY LIKE WORD UP BY CAMEO. HAHAHAHazHAHAHAHAH ZOMG

[pandalova21]

@mccallionr dude seriously? I just went and listened to word up and it is very very different. lmao. you might wanna clean up that earwax. There are millions of songs and ofcourse there is always gonna be some similarity between some songs, but THOSE two songs are VERY different. Word up sounds like old pop song. Dave matthews's is more like rock. WTF man. WTF

[usnndy]

this is their best, if u ask me at least

[imaekshit]

the beggining sounds pimp :)

[NmbAllieMegGiffs12]

I <3 DMB!!! I don't know who wouldn't love them, oh I know people who say" Dave Matthews Band" Who???

[612franklin]

So Much Sense

[MurdaINCBaller]

Kickass. <3 

[snookaholic95]

THIS SONG MAKES ME WANT TO GO CRAZY

[thefatpiggytail]

I DARE ANYONE TO TAKE A SHOT EVERYTIME DAVE SAYS YOU.

[LoonzFrenzy]

@thefatpiggytail

Try that with Roxanne...



[titusville4life]

@thefatpiggytail Challenge Accepted

[steveomac385]

@thefatpiggytail Pretty sure that'd make you shake like a monkey.

[LeapingBearRainCat48]

@thefatpiggytail LMFAO!!!

YES!

[JSHIPM4249]

@thefatpiggytail I just started and I nm,dfjnfjh hrioegfhrghrioghr nm bbbbbbbbbbbbbvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvv­vvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvv­vvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvv­vvvvvvvvvvvvvvvv hmm

[TheBlackNail]

@thefatpiggytail that'll be 21 shots, if I didn't miss some

[frecksgalore]

Why are you all talking about Jonas brothers? This is DMB, and just enjoy DMB.

[Vomitorator]

The jonas brother are the bane of music as a whole.

HOWEVER

Shake me like a monkey = Word Up by Cameo

How hasn't anyone noticed this?

[navydeal123]

@Vomitorator yeah i heard that as soon as this song started playing man hahah definitely not on purpose though

[jordan7278]

Every time I hear this song it makes me question my choice of pursuing a career in game design instead of music, my other passion. I would so make a jazz fusion/rock band like this if given the opportunity. Leaning towards rock, but a little bit of sax, trumpet and trumbone.

[almostsk8r666]

i hope you guys know that mhh8997 came on here to piss you guys off and it did

[angusisadj]

I love the mardigras album art <3. This is such a great song.

[flymarvin]

The horns are an excellent addition on this tune.

[girltant]

DMB and the jonas brothers should not both be talked about in this. please leave the homo brothers out of this convo, cause they have no talent

[CrazyDave313]

I like this record overall, but this track blows donkey dick.....

[girltant]

@CrazyDave313 what!?!?!?! u stupid

[metallica04100]

people who dont play musical instruments are the ones who think that Dave Matthews Band is untalented. A musician would never be that foolish-- its common sense, the complex time signiatures, the originality, the lyrics, and the riffs are overall just superior to the pop jonas brothers, justin bieber, hannah montannah stuff(and thats giving those bands some credit they dont deserve as most don't even play their instrument; music technology majors auto tune them to sound like something they aint

[TenderTrap86]

Dave Matthews and the Jonas Brothers both suck. What kind of arguement is this? Absolutely rediculous.

[peacebwithu97]

DMB= one of the few great bands remaining in this world. I'd love to see them in concert someday.

[flymarvin]

I`m Tha Country Pimp !!!! :>)

[chefjdog]

Yas yas yas yas yas yas yas...GET UP! So groovy, makes my bones want to dance. Can't help but smile and be in a good mood when I hear this song. I listen to Grux followed by this song each day I go to work. It's my 5 hour energy. Best album to date. They did it, Roi wanted this album to be better than live stuff, they hit it.

[thekingchris1]

one of my favorites....keep listening to great music!

[flymarvin]

Shake & Bake

[3000solo]

@flymarvin

they are both verbs they rhyme it's awesome :)

[cheleigh52688]

yeah baby. shake me like a monkey.

[smileybob29]

I consider no Disney artist a real musician especially the jonas brothers.

[chrissept21]

@smileybob29 WTF are you talking about man, phill collins, elton john theres 2 there with an great amount of talent

[youngguitarboy]

@smileybob29 dude yes. i agree 100%! it freakin sucks having a little sister whos role model is miley cyrus...

[themennisspk]

@mhh8997 'This post looks like a troll; I can tell from some of the responses and from seeing many trolls in my time.

[yodason7]

everyone of their albums sound so different but this one might be my favorite... love DMB

[slashlegend75]

I wanna lick Dave from his back to his belly........

[flymarvin]

Jonas are QUEERS______DMB is MUSIC.

[brownteal21]

I am glad that there are ignorant people in this world like mhh8997. Let's us know we're special

[FizzaSAP]

these where WORLD class live!! sounded just like the song, well better!! XD

[patch9894]

some of the best production i've ever heard on any album period

[JackassKing95]

im waiting to see a tour of zac brown band pearl jam o.a.r and dave matthews band that would be fucking amazing

[mhh8997]

so didnt the jonas brothers actually write this song? dave matthews is so unoriginal. he completely stole this song from them

[Vrael89]

that's hilarious, the jonas brothers come up with something as original as this? no they didn't fanboy go somewhere else with your baseless accusations

[RealTourVideos]

looool boo to the people who gave you minus 2 +1 from this guy

[PoeticJustice05]

Wait, who's unoriginal? One of the greatest songwriter's of all time, or three brothers who can hardly play their instruments, can't sing, and can't write a meaningful song to save their lives?

[Blakebong]

@PoeticJustice05 Don't feed the troll

[fsgenious]

@PoeticJustice05

your a fagget. this is an awesome song



[PoeticJustice05]

@fsgenious And you're an idiot. I didn't say anything bad about this song. Read my comment again. Are there three brothers in this band? No. Are there three brothers in the Jonas BROTHERS? Yes.

[fsgenious]

@PoeticJustice05 what the fuck?  how old are you big guy?

[thefatpiggytail]

@PoeticJustice05 dude they say BABY a lot. that has to mean something right? lol

[XiremaXesirin]

@PoeticJustice05 Not to say that the Jonas brothers are worth more than their collective defecations, but unoriginal != bad.

[chrisnasif]

@PoeticJustice05 Let alone the fact that they sell sex to little girls, but intentionally pretend not to.

[AndyMHinchcliffe]

@PoeticJustice05 You guys are all feeding the troll :/ 

[uhayel35]

mhh8997---the jonas brothers would never write good shit like this in a million years. jonas brothers are homo

[Aerobee151]

@uhayel35 waait, the jonas brothers sing this ?!?

[LittleSparklinStar]

@uhayel35 ARE YOU CRAZY????????

[greengobbb]

@uhayel35 you are homo

[afropirate99]

@uhayel35 i don't see how "homo" has anything to do with their ability to write music

[Thycid]

@uhayel35 fuck you for even typing their name. you deserve 0 thumbs up

[brucedarren]

@Thycid i second that. shit dick.

[anime1freak0724]

@uhayel35, find a word other than "homo" to insult the Jonas Brothers. Homophobia is not cool, no matter how used.

[dancingnancy09]

@uhayel35 totally brother spot on!!! dave is the best ever- undisputible!!!!!!

[NoSolicitingBand]

your dumb for liking the jonas bothers

[Daver869]

just leave please...

[adam2664]

@mhh8997 kidding? could you please post the link to the jonas bros song? i would be really interested. , idont believe that dm would steal something like that.

[youngguitarboy]

@mhh8997 ........are you HIGH!?!?! hahahaha if you think jonas brothers are original, and musically talented, youve got serious problems. you know whose musically talented?- DMB, John Mayer, Metallica, Van Halen, Led Zeppelin, The Beatles, The Who, Pearl Jam, etc, and etc! jonas brothers are crap man....

[wizzenbogger]

@youngguitarboy i love all the band that you said are musically talented

[jojojohn997]

@mhh8997 what?? I have nothing against the Jonas Brothers, let me say that first, it is possible they may have written the lyrics first (I have doubts about that, but maybe), but the song is not the lyrics, the song is different, can't give Dave all the credit on that, every member of DMB is musically brilliant beyond belief. Simply, lets not deal in absolutes. Maybe the Jo-bros wrote the lyrics, but if they haven't complained about DMB kicking the crud out of it, then lets not either. PAX!

[69hockeyman69]

@mhh8997 cannot....comprehend....fail overload.....

[TheECHDx]

@mhh8997 lol ure dumb

[liamishitler]

Intro has overtones of Prince methinks!?

[MANKUBUS]

Best song I have heard so far! Full of energy! I LOVE IT :D

[lildrummerboy294]

love it. so full of energy

[cenobite199]

You can always count on DMB to constantly produce good works. There's always a song or two that doesn't grab me, but I've never met one of their cds that hasn't been a good buy.

[PlayStation310Lakers]

Doesn't sound bad but can't help but think that the song sounds all over the place

[PoeticJustice05]

That's because you might not understand music structure.

[jordan7278]

Dave Matthews needs to incorporate brass instruments aiming for the jazzy/soul and rock mix for all of his songs, this is why this is propably the best song on the album.

[OberKommando77]

Dave Matthews Band = Win. Simple as that.

[Beagleface19]

Realyyyy coolio song

[Naughtydogmania]

this music is really cool one of the best

[ItchyBirdDmb]

im the hugest dmb fan love nearly all thier songs-impossible for me to pick a fave song-and dave has penned over a dozen of the best songs of all time- but this is a rockin stand out even for the mind blowing DMB why this wasnt the first single i will never understand

[annemarieketoussaint]

@ItchyBirdDmb

If yer the biggest.. you love ALL the songs. not NEARLY all the songs... just my 2 cents
