There are those bands that should be able to stand the test of time, Matchbox 20, had they stayed together, is one of them. I think it is very hard to dislike the band, I mean they give such passion to each song, the type of passion that is sorely missed in today's mainstream music. There are many fans of Matchbox and we all want them back so they can "save" mainstream music and save our ears from the nonsense on pop stations today. I mean I cant name one mainstream pop artist of today that has two major hits not to mention thousands, possibly millions, of fans wishing for their return. This sense of passion that is seen in songs like If You're Gone, Push, Back 2 Good, 3 AM, and Bright Lights. If You're Gone:
Push:
Back 2 Good:
What people love is the fact that not only do they write songs like this, they also write peppy songs, can throw the peppy songs like Disease, Real World, and Black and White People in with the passionate songs and make an album that can get you through anything. Disease:
Real World:
Black and White People:
As a side note, the song Black and White People is about people's personalities, the fact that most people's personalities can be taken at face value, that is if I remember correctly from their VH1 Storytellers special. Now back to videos that I didn't think I had room for before... 3 AM:
