Matchbox twenty meets scifi - A wearable digital album, nuff said.Hope more bands do this sort of thing.
cool stuff - I quite enjoyed this 2-disc set. The first disc I think is just a small batch of new songs (6 of them), while the second disc is like a greatest-hits collection - and as such, it is *quite* good, with all of the best and most-well-known songs from their past albums.
Happy Fan - My first purchase of Matchbox Twenty in a long time and I was not disappointed. The CD has new material on one CD and a mix of old favorites on the other. The only complaint would be that the first CD is very short and I would have liked to hear more new material. If your looking for a CD of new songs, but still love those hits, go with this one.
Love the older songs, REALLY like the new songs too! - I have everything MB20 has put out (including one of the CDs from the band that came before, Tabitha s Secret and Rob Thomas s solo effort). So obviously I love the old songs but I wasn t prepared for how much I would enjoy the new ones, even though they are few! I m always amazed at Rob Thomas songwriting ability. From These Hard Times:Morning falls like rain into the city lifeThere goes another nightLosing my breath in wavesKnowing that every crash is bleeding the hourglassAnd taking the strife from all our livesandMove your hands in circlesKeeping me hypnotizedThe power behind your eyesMove around your bedroom cursing the naked skyYou should be here tonightBut you stay alone and cry....Such evocative imagery in those words! Just love it. And try as I might, I can t get the catchy tune I ll Believe You When out of my head. This CD has been running non-stop for almost two weeks in my car and I m still not tired of it. I love it so much I bought another copy to send to my son in Germany. I agree that a true MB20 fan should STILL own copies of Mad Season, More Than You Think You Are, Yourself or Someone Like You and Thomas Something To Be simply because ALL their songs are worth listening to over and over again. You will NOT be sorry you purchased this CD, even if you DO own all the others.
Match Box Twenty Exile is Excellent - This CD is a double and includes all of their best songs. The purchase has been one of the best on Amazon so far. As much time as I spend in the car, this CD takes care of the entire commute and takes my mind off the traffic.
