Oops’ s …Grammy’s . No shock factor , no twerking , no stupendous exhibition of exotic dancers ,fireworks or extravagant blinding lighting . A song by an artist performed with so much fun and talent !!!! Upfront and backing ! So loved and totally enjoyed !
Yeah!! You must have a movable stage with an entire string section attached to it coming out behind you!! You ain’t got that, then don’t even try!! LOL
That was nice of Dave and his band to make a "how-to" video on how to do the Grammys. You'd think other artists would watch this video and not fuck it up so badly.
This is how music is really supposed to be played.. A meaning, the energy, the excitement, the joy.. You could see it in every musician that participated... They were smiling, jumping around literally engulfed in the music... Just amazing.. DMB knows music heart and soul
well well said my friend! I noticed how all the musicians and singers were feeling the moment. It is so uplifting to watch. I also noticed that once the performance was over and they panned out so that you could see the audience .. Pink was one of the first persons to stand up and applaud.
This song builds. It starts with just Dave's voice and the intermittent plucking of his guitar. Then to a full orchestra and choir at the end. That's why I get goosebumps everytime.
@@Jo-fy2fc It's pretty hard to be in the league of the female Undertaker. Karen Carpenter's voice induces people with the absolute fear of the last breath. Her voice is the audio equivalent of the white light 😱🪦
To say you don't like Dave Matthews is fine because you are entitled to like and dislike who you want, but to say they suck with the amount of time they have been around and the loyal fan base they keep is a very bold statement and one without much thought.
This is my favorite performance of any song by anyone in the history of the Grammys. Dave Matthews is one of my favorite performers and this tune just completely grabs my emotions. This performance in particular is so beautiful.
Agreed John. I actually became a fan after seeing/hearing this amazing performance. The song, the musicians, the production. Hard to equal, and not likely to be surpassed anytime in the near future, if ever.
My 13 year old son was battling cancer for the 3rd time in December ‘09, and he and I would sing this every day at the top of our lungs in the car on the way to the transplant hospital for his daily treatments. He survived. Every time I hear this song, I think of those times. When DMB played it live a few years later while I was at their concert, I called my son on the phone so he could hear it live. I cried as we sang it again together. Thanks guys. ❤😊
So great. Dave just doesn't give a shit where he is, he is true to his fans. This performance rocked. How inspiring of him to bring others on stage to share that experience. Makes me a proud fan.
This performance makes me so happy for numerous reasons. Not only is the song beautiful, but you can tell the band is SO happy to be performing it. Dave's dance with the musicians was awesome...he was so into the song. All these years making music and they are still having a blast! That's why they're the best!!! #DMB Forever!
Tara Williams They knew how special this performance was My Friend.. and any DMB fan who saw this live that night was,...for lack of any other word... PROUD!!!.. Almost like.. We've know how great these guys were for a very long time and now The No Talent Grammy performers know why we travel hours and try to make as many concerts dates as we possibly can... DO YOU GUYS GET IT NOW!!!!... LOL!!!!
I cant believe that I have never seen this video before. DMB is one of my absolute favorite artists/bands ever. I love when a real musical talent goes on one of these crap awards shows and shows everyone else how you do it right. Their music is always so, so good. Also, Dave is the epitome of COOL!
I dare any band to top this performance. I sit there and wonder how DMB gets over looked so much. Truly one of the most gifted bands ever. Been listening to Dave since i was a little kid.
Hardcore DMB traditionalists need to remember this was a one song Grammy performance on live television and not their typical open air concert. They were nominated for 2 Grammy's. Dave couldn't wear jeans & sandals, Boyd couldn't go shirtless and they couldn't just jam out as usual because of the guest musicians and TV time limitations but all that should be obvious. The performance was awesome and the song is great. Some people need top grow up for at least a minute.
I always come back to this performance...I remember watching it live and thinking how amazing this moment was, not only for the band, is fans, but for the entire industry. It was the first time in awhile the Grammys had a performance that really showed the world the power of music. If I remember right Pink also performed which was also an incredible performance. There hasn’t been a Grammys night like it since. Legendary
Me too! I look like that! It's as if, I am actually in another planet! His leg and feet movements, I always loved! One of a kind. I was much younger when DMB first started getting going!!!
Watching this again ... going to see Dave in WPB and JAX this week .. doing double shows at each one ..if you've never been a witness to their live show you are missing out !
My wife walked down the aisle to the strings version of You And Me. Our first dance was to the studio version of You And Me. And both our 3 year old and 5 year old have fallen asleep each night with the lullaby (Rockabye Baby) version of You And Me. To say this song is an important part of our lives doesn't begin to describe it. ❤️
that's what so amazing about this performance. there were no costumes, no gimmicks, no pre-recorded sounds.. just musical instruments, voices, and talent all coming together.. nice touch that DMB used the high school band players.
DMB should have won everything they were nominated for. I absolutely love Dave and everything he does. He is a musical genius and they stole the show. By far the greatest performance of the night.
It's been 10 years, and this performance still rocks. My go-to when I need to be lifted up. Such happiness, such joy. Thank you Dave and Band, thank you.
Loving every part of this DMB performance. The back up vocals while Dave got lost in the moment. Think they just schooled everyone at the Grammy's. Inspiring, would love to see them live one day.
I had never really listened to a DMB song until I watched this performance. I have NEVER seen so much positive energy! Everyone on stage looked like they thoroughly enjoyed themselves, and I enjoyed watching them. Real music always shines through!
What am I going to listen to when DMB is done touring, recording, performing...Dave and Co. are just as good as it gets. Love these guys. When I'm feeling off or down just a few DMB songs on youtube, watching band do their thing and I'm back at it. Thanks for so many years of greatness...I've been with you since 1994 and I hope you have more left to go!
Can always look back on what we did??? Been to so many DMB concerts I can look back, but forgot “too much”! The wife has the dreaming tree tattooed on her chest!! We’re fans since 98! The fire dancer on her back! “Her and I” have done lots together! Always look forward to do doing anything after hearing this song!!!
This is most excellent. DMB never ceases to amaze me and this performance will be cherished forever by the extraordinary backing musicians and singers. Dave and his band really deserve a Superbowl Halftime Show. Seriously.
This is just one of the many reasons why I love this band. They shared the Grammy stage with other musicians and killed it! Sounded fantastic and they prove time after time of why they have been a successful band for 20 years. Love them, they have never disappointed me.
And that is how it is done kids !!! !!!!!!!!! ….and Grammies !!!!!!
Oops’ s …Grammy’s . No shock factor , no twerking , no stupendous exhibition of exotic dancers ,fireworks or extravagant blinding lighting . A song by an artist performed with so much fun and talent !!!! Upfront and backing ! So loved and totally enjoyed !
I walked down the aisle to this and it will forever be in my heart. More people should listen to this amazing band! ❤
To all the new artists out there class is in session. THAT is how you perform live.
Nailed it sir!!
Facts!!
Yeah!! You must have a movable stage with an entire string section attached to it coming out behind you!! You ain’t got that, then don’t even try!! LOL
@@randyzack8886 DMB fans are always over dramatic. According to them he INVENTED music.
Yep !
14 yrs ago a better time and place,ty dave
Timeless
The lil jig he does gets me every time.

Pink is a fucking class act. Dave IS a God!!

Dave can play the guitar. Very well.
the true mark of a good band is how they sound live.....dmb sounds better live then they do in studio. that is why they are so good
i have always thought the same thing. in fact i always try to listen to live trax songs, because they all sound so better
last time Grammys had music.
Apparently you've never heard Sabrina Carpenter
@@FIXTREME I know Karen Carpenter.
@@Jo-fy2fc I said *SABRINA,* not the Grim Reaper. Karen Carpenter is the voice you hear when it's time to die.
@@FIXTREME that’s not nice. I listened to 3 Sabrina songs and I can say she is ok. Not in the league of Karen Carpenter, but ok. She is young.
@@Jo-fy2fc It's pretty hard to be in the league of the female Undertaker. Karen Carpenter's voice induces people with the absolute fear of the last breath. Her voice is the audio equivalent of the white light 😱🪦
12 years and this performance still gives me goosebumps
"i dont always play at the grammys, but when i do, I show everyone else what real music is"
To say you don't like Dave Matthews is fine because you are entitled to like and dislike who you want, but to say they suck with the amount of time they have been around and the loyal fan base they keep is a very bold statement and one without much thought.
Absolutely fabulous!!!!
This is my favorite performance of any song by anyone in the history of the Grammys. Dave Matthews is one of my favorite performers and this tune just completely grabs my emotions. This performance in particular is so beautiful.
+John Scrivner Well said. It's a complete home run. Hard to top this performance.
aircanuck Amen
Agreed John. I actually became a fan after seeing/hearing this amazing performance. The song, the musicians, the production. Hard to equal, and not likely to be surpassed anytime in the near future, if ever.
This is my favorite song by him. But this performance is just so amazing and beautiful.
John Scrivner ghhhhb
The best Grammy performance I have ever seen!
RIP LeRoi Moore⚘️🙏🏿🕊💔

Never better

Didn’t you previously post this same comment already?
This is def 1 of the top grammy performances ever...the comments make me emotional 👏👏👏
Every damn time I listen to this song it shakes me up, thank you Dave ❤
So great. Dave just doesn't give a shit where he is, he is true to his fans. This performance rocked. How inspiring of him to bring others on stage to share that experience. Makes me a proud fan.
Yeah, it's awesome that he gave so many musicians the chance to say that they performed at the Grammys.
WE ARE 70 YEARS....LOVE THIS SONG!!! WE ARE...DOING EVERYTHING...MARRIED 43 YEARS!!!!
Dave, you are a very worthwhile human being!

When my wife and I got married she walked down the isle to dream girl.

he shouldve won album of the year that year just on that performance alone. im still mad about this

Well said Charles.
Dave Matthews Band is a national treasure.
Dave Matthews is South African. That is why he is so great!

When Dave dances...I feel like I'm on another planet. The feel is amazing.
Yes
Wp
Me too! I look like that! It's as if, I am actually in another planet! His leg and feet movements, I always loved! One of a kind. I was much younger when DMB first started getting going!!!
Dave literally saves me
On a bad day, I remember dmb on stage and remember that " today is the day; make JOY your J.O.B" so much love for these guys...
Long live the Groo Grux King
ERA NOSSA MÚSICA, DIZIA ELE. SAUDADE DE VC MOR.
one of the best Grammy's performances of all time.
The look Dave gives at the end is priceless.... "Yep, that just happened -- you're welcome for the eargasm...

They all look too old to be high school band players.
Oh god...I cried again
ABSOLUTELY AMAZING PERFORMANCE!!! Dave, you looked SO FREAKIN HANDSOME!!! Super haaaawt!🤩✨️✨️🙌🔥
That bass note though😮
Unbelievable
I watched this live. I just love how the song built up slowly. The crescendo took my breath away.
I struggle to find a better performance. God! This gives me memories. I'd just finished High School
1 of the top grammy performances of all time!!!!
Best band of the past 30 YEARS!!!!!!!!!
Yesssssss absolutely
My wife and my first song we danced to as a married couple. Thank you Dave for this beautiful song.
Been a Marine for 20 years...am I the only one who was smiling and had tears in my eyes? Powerful. Beautiful. Amazing.
2024
Nothing like a huge group of people jamming on stage and doing what they love. Instant chills, every time they all stand up and go wild.
Just awesome
Dave and his band make this world a better place! Thanks brother!
This performance was recorded in the heavens.
Dave is fab
3-31-2020 coronavirus pandemic playlist lockdown- Thank you Dave for the music that melts my heart
2021 and still pandemic lockdown...
Extraordinary ! Definitely the best rock band ever !
Agreed! Anyone that is surpised about the "lead singer breaking down" obviously doesn't know DAVE. He is AWESOME!
Back when the grammys still had class.
So good im crying.
Great performance!!! That was probably the best Grammy Show ever! They aren't as special anymore!😢
Life is a balance between pain and art
Nothing else
E
The thing that is so wonderful about this song is how profoundly private and and an anthem at the same time!
Awesome
Timeless. Your work has aged well!
The thing that is so wonderful about this song is how profoundly intimate and and an anthem at the same time!
.
yeah....yeah....😊
A great song and greater performance.. 2023
DMB should have won everything they were nominated for. I absolutely love Dave and everything he does. He is a musical genius and they stole the show. By far the greatest performance of the night.
they should win everything every year, fucking amazing
It's been 10 years, and this performance still rocks. My go-to when I need to be lifted up. Such happiness, such joy. Thank you Dave and Band, thank you.
This might have been the last year I watch the Grammys today's music does nothing for me but seeing this again put a lump im my throat
STILL one of my all-time favorite DMB songs! I can listen to it over and over. Truly blesses my soul!
To give a stage to all of those artists, the majority of whom would never have a chance to perform on the Grammy stage...amazing stuff.
4:28 Thats how its done.....
Loving every part of this DMB performance. The back up vocals while Dave got lost in the moment. Think they just schooled everyone at the Grammy's. Inspiring, would love to see them live one day.
I am having one of the worst days EVER, but I'm glad that I can listen to DMB and forget about my troubles for a little while. Thanks, Dave!
I keep coming back to this video every few years. Happiness is.....
Seriously how can you not ❤ this 😊 I really prefer The other Video with everyone coming into a room and being Happy to play music 🎶🎶✌️💚🙃
I had never really listened to a DMB song until I watched this performance. I have NEVER seen so much positive energy! Everyone on stage looked like they thoroughly enjoyed themselves, and I enjoyed watching them. Real music always shines through!
I swear, I’m gonna dance to this song on my wedding night with the girl of my dreams 😊
+1 same here!!!!
I checked that box on my wedding.
Just beautiful and inclusive and hopefully not the end of the world!
I'm not a DMB fan but seeing this song makes me want to see them live in concert sometime.
Dave;s dancing excite the hell out of me!
Best ever and ever of every f...kin time and again... EVER
What am I going to listen to when DMB is done touring, recording, performing...Dave and Co. are just as good as it gets. Love these guys. When I'm feeling off or down just a few DMB songs on youtube, watching band do their thing and I'm back at it. Thanks for so many years of greatness...I've been with you since 1994 and I hope you have more left to go!
Dave does his African moves/dance at 3:13. I love it!! He probably freaked this Grammy crowd out though! He he!!
Dave’s not known for being a good dancer and I don’t think that had anything to do with his birthplace.
I do adore his dance moves though!
Probably one of the best performances I've ever seen. Still gives me the chills when it picks up.
If I can ever spare the cash for a ticket. Thank you for years of music that still, changes my life and carries me along
First time seeing this. Done with so much joy and bringing in all kinds of other instruments and singers to contribute to the joy this song is.
Can always look back on what we did??? Been to so many DMB concerts
I can look back, but forgot “too much”! The wife has the dreaming tree tattooed on her chest!! We’re fans since 98! The fire dancer on her back! “Her and I” have done lots together! Always look forward to do doing anything after hearing this song!!!
This is most excellent. DMB never ceases to amaze me and this performance will be cherished forever by the extraordinary backing musicians and singers. Dave and his band really deserve a Superbowl Halftime Show. Seriously.
Best band in the world, and this is my new favorite song of all time. Thank you Dave. See you in Tampa in 2012.
The look dave gives at the end: "Yes, that is what real music sounds like"
Stunning. EVERY. TIME. I. WATCH. IT. Thank you DMB!
This is just one of the many reasons why I love this band. They shared the Grammy stage with other musicians and killed it! Sounded fantastic and they prove time after time of why they have been a successful band for 20 years. Love them, they have never disappointed me.
That VOICE IS SO AMAZING
