Free Music Notes for Don't Play With MatchesFree Music Review: MB20 Fan! Hit: 5 Stars
I bought this because it was a pre-matchbox twenty CD and I was curious. I still love my guys, but this CD has some truly great songs on it (obviously they agreed - Rob fought to bring 3 a.m. with him, a song he wrote about when he was a kid and his mother was fighting cancer). You'd never recognize Rob Thomas through most of it; as much as I love this CD (and I do LOVE it!) - his voice seems to lack the passion or maybe confidence(?) you hear in his newer work. Still, this band was absolutely going places, whether it was Tabitha's Secret or matchbox twenty. 'Dear Joan', 'Forever December', 'Dizzy', and 'Here Come Horses' are all great songs. Absolutely worth it.
Free Music Review: Pleasantly Surprised!! Hit: 5 Stars
Ok, so, yes, I'm a BIG Matchbox20 fan! And, I have to admit that I would never have looked up Tabitha's Secret had it not been for MB20! But I LOVE this CD! I think it is probably my all time favorite MB20/TS recording! It's real and a little bit raw. Songs like "Here Come Horses"...Oh, and "Forever December". Awh! (listen to 'em loud, it's the best!!!) And yes, wait for dizzy! Perfection!! Really, lots a good stuff!!! Be sure to check out other slices like "Paint Me Blue", and "Dear Joan", "High", and "Tired"! All in all...I am VERY HAPPY with this purchase!!! These guys rock!! These guys rule!
Free Music Review: grows on you Hit: 5 Stars
I spent a looong time looking for this CD, and finally found it at a used CD store two months ago. The first time I listened to it, I wasn't quite sure about it--it really does sound like a less mature matchbox twenty. After I listened to it a few more times, though, it started to grow on me. Now I've worn that poor CD to death. The sound is raw and powerful, it just feels more pure than the sometimes overdone electricness (I know that isn't a word) of matchbox twenty. Go, buy it, the lyrics are brilliant and the music is gorgeous. This CD deserves a place in anyone's music collection.
Free Music Review: Outstanding Early Work From Rob Thomas Hit: 5 Stars
This album is awesome. I love it. The lyrics are refreshingly honest and stunningly placed together to make musical poetry. The stand outs on the album in my opinion are "Here Comes Horses", "Tired" and the hidden track "Dizzy" which is my personal favorite. Rob Thomas' voice is less agressive then the Matchbox Twenty albums, but the softness of the vocals and music is calming and wonderful. I'm a huge MB20 fan, and would recomend this album to anyone with intrest in the band. As a matter of fact, I'd recomend it to anyone who's attracted to good, quality music.
Free Music Review: I'm so glad I found this cd Hit: 5 Stars
I love this cd. You will too if you think Matchbox 20's "Yourself or Someone Like You" is truly a classic. The lyrics and sound are as moving as anything the band done since. The fact that it is a live cd makes it even more personal. The sound quality on some of the tracks is not 100 percent perfect, but that's the beauty of live music. Bottom line: If you like Matchbox Twenty, and not just for their hits, buy this cd and Tabitha's Secret "Don't Play With Matches" as well.
