Matchbox 20
« on: May 06, 2003, 04:59:16 PM »

Does anyone in here like Matchbox 20? I used to like them, and even own their first CD "you or somone like you". I think that CD was great, and had many great songs on it.

But after that, i quit listening to them. I really hated the song "bent" sp there is no way i would buy their second CD. The they came out with a great song "if your gone", so i just d/l that.

Now they have a new CD out. I like their new song "unwell" alot! and thier song "disease" before that was good too, so i am thinking about buying the CD.

Does anyone have that CD? is it good?

I really like Matchbox 20.  Their new CD is much better than their second CD, Dallas, and if you liked the first one, then chances are you will really like this CD.  I think it's really good, anyway.

Thanks savage. One more thing, how would you rate it? With 10 being the best CD you ever heard and 1 being the biggest pile of crap ever produced

1 = Biggest Pile of Crap Ever Produced
10 = Best CD I Ever Heard

Wow!  That is some scale!  While I wouldn't say it is the best CD I ever heard, I would by no means say it's crap.  So on this scale, I would have to rate it an 8.  It's very very good.

Well i got the CD yesterday and have been listening to it. I must say it is a good CD. It isn't the best and isn't the worst, it isn't my favorite, and it isn't my least favorite CD, but it is definatly good.

Without a doubt my favorite song on he CD is "Hand Me Down". That is one of the best songs i have heard in a while, and if i hadn't bought the CD then i'd prolly would never have heard it. So in a way, i guess you could say that "Hand Me Down" was worth the price of the CD alone:


Someday they'll find your small town world
On a big town avenue
Gonna make you like the way they talk
When they're talking to you
Gonna make you break out of the shell
Cause they tell you to
Gonna make you like the way they lie
Better than the truth
They'll tell you everything you wanted someone else to say
They're gonna break your heart, yeah

[chorus]
From what I've seen
You're just one more hand me down
Cause no one's tried to give you what you need
So lay all your troubles down
I am with you now

Somebody oughta take you in
Try to make you love again
Try to make you like the way they feel
When they're under your skin
Never want you to think they would lie
When they're holding you
And you wonder why they haven't called
When they said they'd call you
And you start to wonder if you're ever going to make it by
You'll start to think you were born blind

[chorus]

I'm here for the hard times
The straight-to-your-heart times
Whenever it ain't easy
You can stand up against me
And maybe rely on me
And cry on me, yeah
Oh, no, no, no

Someday they'll open up your world
Shake you down to the drawing board
Do their best to change you
They still can't erase you

[chorus]

Lay them down on me
Oh yeah, you're just one more hand me down
And all those nights don't give you what you need
So lay all your troubles down on me
