Yer man looks like the Brit actor Keith Allen (father of Lily) who often plays dodgy/hard man parts, such as his cameo in Shallow Grave. Which is a lot more interesting than this song, which is aural sedative {#Sleep}

Yah, I was thinking Daniel Lanois must have had something to do with it.  I'll check...

ETA: Nope.  Some dude named Stephen Harris...

Never been a big fan but I did give this an 8 for giving it all they had to make me like them.  I would like to hear it again.  With friends is a great vid too! {#Music}

Prefer Dave Mathews solo, or just playing with his mate Tim Reynolds, rather than with all those others in that band of his, which sounds too bombastic and noodly for me

Christian song? I don't think Dave intended this song to be of religious reverence. Many amazing writers that ponder the profound meaning of life, use words and contexts to convey their spirituality... and on a different side note, I love Dave for everything he is. True that the new stuff will never come close to Crash, etc... the reason I choose to hold on to the old stuff and never let go...

Like most of Dave's stuff, and this one is no exception.  Thanks RP!

When Dave first hit the scene with "Under the table and dreaming" and "Crash", I was a serious listener (and lover) of his music. They actually came to Syracuse (and have come several times after- likes this place, wonder why?) and I attended and loved the show.

But his later albums have left me wanting more and not getting it. He has lost his spark that his earlier works evoked (at least for me). Oh well, at least he did it for a while.

Synopsis? Loved his early stuff, his later stuff is pretty much getting up and putting on the same clothes. Not much going on anymore.

Hence my 1 rating. Don't hate the guy, just don't see much to love anymore.

now, i only started listening at work when i switched jobs 6 months ago, so i didn't listen as much as i would've liked before then but....

when did RP start playing Dave?

I must admit, i'm a bit torn by this development

Why is that? Dave Matthews is this kind of artist for me. I can live without most of his work, yet this song somehow succeeds on all levels. Great melody, interesting lyrics, cool groove, trippy guitars, an amazing tune! I don't understand it, but I don't fight it. I just enjoy it. Take pleasure where you can.

it's the same phenomenon that accompanies U2, Coldplay and any other band who is at one time or another labeled "the biggest band in the world"...  so haters, take it easy and chill out and people easily offended by the haters, take it easy and chill out as well.  Enjoy the music and let the age old debate continue.  There are very very few sonic transmissions from RP that are not pleasurable.

The ax work is U2ish, but it lacks edge.

I am not a huge Dave Matthews hater, like many other people on RP,

but this is ponderous and lame.

Agree.

This album is fantastic, varied and nothing like traditional DMB stuff.

Good lord man, there's not much of a self importance issue with you is there?

Yanni doesn't sing. But then DM barely does. This song is a rock solid ho-hum 3.

Yes, a little DM goes a long way

That time could be used to play some songs in the playlist that havent had much exposure
