I dedicated this song to my wife. She had it rough and then we met. We've been happily married for 32 years no and have 3 sons and 5 grand children. You just never know.
Funny, kind of opposite. We had it great. 3 kids….he left. Still sees the kids, but we won’t have the pleasure of being together seeing our grandkids together. You’re right, you never know.
Rob is one of the best songwriters of the past 25+ years. You don't hear emotional and meaningful lyrics like Robs songs have anymore. I look forward to the day he's inducted to the Rock n Roll hall of fame. He is already deserving imo.
Yes rob is definitely worthy of rock and roll hall of fame probably my favorite singer like his songs have so damned much emotion and feeling I love them all... Even when he was with matchbox 20 like I'd give anything to meet this man I met and got a photo with my other favorite matthew west...had. a personal meet and greet with him...
I have seen him a bunch of times, with Matchbox 20 & his solo stuff & he & them will always be my #1 favorite of all time & I'm almost 60, so I've heard alot of music 😂
Me too. I live in small town Oklahoma and his music has always been testament to my life , the ups and downs. His is such a talented beautiful soul. And damn it! He can write play and sing. He’s one of my favorite artists ever.🎼🥰
@@kittyville8008 I’m in Oklahoma I hope to see him one day soon. I just lost my mom to cancer and I’m alone and lost. Music gets me through. If he comes close maybe I’ll finally get to see him. He’s been my favorite since I was a teenager and I’m now 46. 🎼💗
Hand Me Down is my favourite song by Matchbox Twenty. Every single time I hear it, it makes me cry 😢😢😢I often play it on repeat until I am all cried out. From the moment I was dragged away from my Dad’s house when I was 3, I was abused by my mother both violently & emotionally. I was so traumatised that I didn’t speak for two years. Then she kept giving me away but then dragging me back telling me that the people she had given me to didn’t want me either, but in reality she just wanted to keep controlling & abusing me. I grew up knowing that I wasn’t wanted. I left home when I was 16 & got pregnant when I was 17. The best thing to happen to me in my entire life was having my 3 beautiful kids who are my whole world. But even now that I am in my 60s I still feel like I’m a Hand me down & it’s a really hard feeling to shake. Hand me down is the song I want played when I die.
I'm so sorry you had to go through that, I went through sexual abuse with my step dad for 10yrs. I've always felt like a hand me down too! Like I wasn't good enough. I'm turning 60yrs old in February, I now have 2 beautiful daughters and 6 beautiful grandkids. So glad that "hand me down" part of my life is over! But, this is my favorite song of theirs!
Thank you for sharing that heart wrenching story. No one deserves to feel unwanted. Just wanted to say from a complete stranger that you most definitely are not a hand me down and simply instead a glowing diamond that never got the TLC it needed to truly shine. Unappreciated more than anything. I hope you know that you're not alone in that feeling and it's wonderful to hear your children bring that light into your world that was withheld from you growing up.
Dang, once again, after listening to this hundreds of times, I've got tears streaming down my face and cold chills up my spine. Is there anything he can't do, sing or write?? Love this band and Rob Thomas💞💞
To all the used & abused, hated & TraitorEd on God is bringing the right people in your life. He's shown you the wrong ones and the right ones are gonna show up in your path...just keep walking & don't ever look back.
I was shown this group over 20yrs ago by someone very special and he has been gone 20yrs this yr,but every song they sing,I can close my eyes and it takes me back to the very first time!! So thank you mb20
I hated moving to Atlanta. Absolutely hated it. I was 15… My husband got me tickets to see y’all this coming Sunday. Atlanta doesn’t suck as much for me. Can’t. Freaking. Wait. I’m originally from Oregon, culture shock is an absolute understatement. Giddy as all hell! Hang was my song when I moved here.
somebody oughta take you in, try to make you love again, try to make you like the way it feels, when they're under your skin. (one of the best lyrics.)
My favorite Matchbox 20 song. Even better Live. This song always sends chills down my spine. Yes I'm a guy, but oh well. I just rediscovered Matchbox 20 and Rob Thomas's solo stuff recently. In my opinion they are the best of this era. I can't believe I forgot about them.
+The Senator of Gaming omg I SO agree. when creed first started out I had the great pleasure of meeting the band. SS has been thru so much but has conquered it all! greatness.....
Update: I came across this song in one of my depressive moods and I related to it. Just love this group and will continue to listen to the songs you all give us.
I can relate much on this song, the lyrics and everything.. If you've loved and got hurt thrice in your life.. You'd be carried away by this song.. Matchbox20! Rob Thomas- you're always the number 1 singer in my life (2005 to present).. Hoping that you'll schedule a concert in the Philippines
OMG amazing he is just so damn much more than just good ...Sings with so much feeling and passion...never get enough of him ...LOVE YOU YOUR THE BEST THANKS FOR THE GREAT MUSIC
shell stunner Where's he been all my life? I had no idea he was so sexy! I was too busy enjoying the music! These guys are so underrated. I was told at the concert it was the last one..ever..it was 6 days after the shooting in Vegas. Hands down the best! Love Rob Thomas don't ever stop writing and singing!!
I'm blessed to be able to go to the concert next Tuesday. My youngest son made my dreams come true and got me tickets for my mother's day gift. I know it is going to be very emotional for me. Rob has a way of laying my soul bare and seeing him in person was on my bucket list.
What can I say? Honestly I can't say anything that anyone else has commented already before me he is amazing he is always on my playlist he is one of my go-to when I want to get motivated and also when I need healing and heck let's face it24/7 everyday of my life I need a Rob Thomas matchbox 20 fix he honestly is a gift from God so thank you Lord for Rob Thomas and matchbox 20 and always knowing exactly how I feel 💜
OMG I feel like this song is about me throughout my life. I've been treated like a hand me down for a long time. I love this song because I can relate. Thanks so much and I love matchbox 20 and Rob Thomas.
Finally going to see this amazing man in concert this coming Monday night. I can barely wait I'm filled with so much excitement. Rob Thomas your songs have each found their way to my heart and soul and somehow you have a song for every experience I've had in my life and I'm truly grateful to have your music to connect with. Thank you so much.
I always come back and listen to this on repeat...such a song....takes me at peace with life even when I'm here on hards times going threw issues ..but throughout I'll be fine at the end...doing the best not to change...🖤 for no one that's worth it
this song describes me & my life perfectly....took me years to get rid of feeling like this....& I use to cry buckets when I would play this CD....love Rob Thomas,,,love Matchbox Twenty.....
Truly 1 of the deepest BEST of all time,💯😉❣️.. he has seen me thru some really dark times, and Best times of my life ❤️, thank goodness I'm no longer in darkness n he brought me thru it All 😢🤔🥰❣️... Can't Help but LOVE 💞😘 Rob,... He's Amazing ✅❣️

I dedicated this song to my wife. She had it rough and then we met. We've been happily married for 32 years no and have 3 sons and 5 grand children. You just never know.
That's beautiful
Family makes the difference. Glad you found each other.
salute‼️
I want that 😢
Funny, kind of opposite. We had it great. 3 kids….he left. Still sees the kids, but we won’t have the pleasure of being together seeing our grandkids together.
You’re right, you never know.

his net worth should be worth more than 17 million dollars 2016
I agree.....love him and his music
%100 one of the best ever my personal fav....I listen to match everday
@Michael West I couldn't have said that better myself! :)
Yes rob is definitely worthy of rock and roll hall of fame probably my favorite singer like his songs have so damned much emotion and feeling I love them all...

a song i never want to end
He's voice soothes my soul and this goes straight to the soul!!!
Oops His
listened to this song Over and over again.
Song reminds me of my mom. She loves this song. She had multiple medical issues and some days are easier than others. This band means the world to me.
He has a new album released!
Dang, once again, after listening to this hundreds of times, I've got tears streaming down my face and cold chills up my spine. Is there anything he can't do, sing or write?? Love this band and Rob Thomas💞💞
Love ! Never gets old !
Right to the core of your soul. ❤
I have been waiting for a man like he sings about in this song my entire life. I don't think he exists. I am a real life hand me down...peace...
I CANT STOP LISTENING TO THIS SONG..
One of the absolute best songs/ bands EVER ❤️
He rarely does the rasp w/ his voice but absolutely NAILS it in this song!
Its good shiz
That guitar by Kyle, that lyrics by Rob just heart pinching. Everything is just perfect even in 2024.
Who on God's green earth would thumbs down this?
people that don't have a clue
other bands
Rob did an interview a short time ago and said this is favorite song he's written...which brought me back. Need to get them back together for a tour.
those who don't know what real talent and great music is all about.. or maybe those who prefer meaningless songs
@@yimmys85
They aren't broken up. I just saw them
A long time of loving this band
This man, his voice, his songs , love it alll. His songs have so much meaning. And when he sings you can tell he sings with all his heart.
why can't writers nowadays write music this great. Rob/matchbox twenty are terrific, hands down
To all the used & abused, hated & TraitorEd on God is bringing the right
people in your life. He's shown you the wrong ones and the right ones are gonna show up in your path...just keep walking & don't ever look back.
Never get sick of this man and his soulful vibe! This hand-me-down would love to lean on you! MatchboxTwenty quintessential musicians!
i love that riff that kyle does
MY SOUL DIGGA..HIS WORDS ROLL RIGHT DOWN THE CHEEKS OF MY SOUL
I can totally relate....love these guys

Song and text are beautiful. I have watched this many times. Love the steel...
somebody oughta take you in, try to make you love again, try to make you like the way it feels, when they're under your skin. (one of the best lyrics.)
I love you Roberto! Wish you'd come to Reno, Nevada
Takes me back 20 years ago when I was young and didn’t know what is love. But life is a journey and through it we learn n grow
My favorite Matchbox 20 song. Even better Live. This song always sends chills down my spine. Yes I'm a guy, but oh well. I just rediscovered Matchbox 20 and Rob Thomas's solo stuff recently. In my opinion they are the best of this era. I can't believe I forgot about them.
jason snyder 'Matchbox20' - Unforgettable :D
Don’t forget about Creed! Both these bands were the first two I ever listened to, and nothing compares to the songwriting of Rob Thomas.
+The Senator of Gaming omg I SO agree. when creed first started out I had the great pleasure of meeting the band. SS has been thru so much but has conquered it all! greatness.....
jason snyder Agree 100 percent!!!
Kyles solo was absolutely beautiful
My heart opens a little more everytime I hear this song. I just blink and feel it. He really is something special.
Update: I came across this song in one of my depressive moods and I related to it. Just love this group and will continue to listen to the songs you all give us.
I cant stop listening to the opening, live or not it gets me in my thoughts

I can relate to the words of this song. I do feel like a hand me down. His voice is so beautiful.
One of the best songs EVER!
My song. Hope when we see them in concert next year they play this. It's how I feel about myself.
I'm blessed to be able to go to the concert next Tuesday. My youngest son made my dreams come true and got me tickets for my mother's day gift. I know it is going to be very emotional for me. Rob has a way of laying my soul bare and seeing him in person was on my bucket list.
Staying at home, laying down on my bed, listening to this beautiful song clear my emotions
