Ugh PhatJ, first you love DMB and now this. It's like I don't even know you anymore.

I’ve never denied I like Amongst the Waves. Been open open about that since the 30 second clip was released before the album. That said, it’s still well down my overall PJ favorites list. Hell, it’s on Backspacer in which every song sucks to some degree. I like DMB, but mostly live stuff and old albums. Before These Crowded Streets is a great album though.

I remember seeing DMB for the first time on SNL with my dad. We went out and bought UTTAD and RTT the next day. I stuck around for a while and do appreciate the musicianship very much. But there's something so hippe-broish about Dave Matthews that I'll never be able to get past.

I completely ignore the outside crap associated with DMB and focus solely on the musicianship and the songs. Otherwise I’d probably hate them too like all the cool kids.

Unfortunately the remaining 2min 18sec blows.

Yeah, best to not risk damaging your cool-factor. The approval of all those anti-DMBers is so much more valuable than enjoying something. Totes agree.

lol it has nothing to do with that and everything to do with his lyrics feeling fake to me. also his music is boring.
