Behind The Vinyl: "3 AM" Rob Thomas
Рет қаралды 24,336
Күн бұрынYou'd be hard pressed to find a nicer and more down-to-earth guy than Rob Thomas. Watch as Rob tells the story behind the Matchbox 20 hit
"3AM" and how the album cover was NOT a hit with the folks at the record company.

I was an expatriate living in England and met a woman in an "America Online!" chat room and we were chatting about music and she asked me if I'd ever heard Matchbox 20, and I said no. The internet was so new, when someone asked for your address you didn't think twice. She mailed me the CD and I listened to it day and night for 3 months. What a work of art.

Why dis Lionel Ritchie right out of the gate? Bad Lionel Ritchie love song? ...hard to listen after that statement.
@unclestinky6388 5 жыл бұрын
I think Thomas meant that his own early songs were a poor attempt at a Lionel Ritchie love song. Thomas appears to mean that his own early songs were bad.
@lincoln3x7 5 жыл бұрын
Uncle Stinky you may be right.... but he should say “a bad attempt at a Lionel Ritchie song”, instead he says “bad Lionel Ritchie love songs” so he may just be dissing the Commodores and whole bunch of 70s and 80s hits he should be happy to emulate.
