This song should have won every award in sight. Accidentally in Love is just about the most adorable song ever recorded. The perfect song for Shrek 2. His voice is so energetic and of the wall in the cutest, goofiest way. The remake of Yellow Taxi is super as well. A wonderful group.
This is great, a great performance and not a cell phone in sight! I miss those days. Everyone was fully present. The world is a worse place since social media invaded about 4 years after this.
Adam looks so much relaxed in NYC. Love this band.hey no auto tune,Adam's voice sounds clear along with band.i'm glad to see parents bring kids down there to see and hear what music is.Great!
We had our wedding ceremony and reception in the same venue. I wanted to play something upbeat to get everyone out on the front steps for a group picture while we flipped the room to reception mode. I chose Accidentally in Love. It was perfect--the lyrics are so wedding appropriate, it made everyone smile and laugh as they filed out, it elevated the mood from "somber wedding vows" to "let's party." That was October 2007 and I still love this song.
I remember watching this live as it happened because my Mom always used to watch the Today show back then and I was at her house the morning this was on.
Back in 97' I had a friend Jeremy, he was a singer in Oklahoma. We used perform OKC Bricktown @ Chelinos Restaurant, I ALWAYS CONVINCED HIM TO SING Mr Jones, At first I paid him, Later he include this song to his repertory.... Jeremy it was a GREAT DUDE...
Matt (Bass player) was in our band for about a month in SF in 1990. I was falling asleep a couple of years later in front of the TV and Mr jones started playing on I think was David Letterman and I had no idea that Counting crows was these guys. We opened many times for a band that Adam was singing in called sordid humor. Adam always stood in the middle of the floor and listened to every single note we played. I always knew he’d go places. I was told that I was hanging out with him but I don’t remember because I was probably drunk.
As a further comment, so many complain that modern music lacks originality. Here is the rebuttal! When has there been a song with a more unique sound and flavor than Accidentally in Love? In a world of cookie cutter sounds and xerox copies, this group breaks the mold. Number one for sheer joy and unabashed goofiness.
Sure, on one hand, but on the other, he became a big big star. I don't think Marty did (Mr. Jones). I guess he has had a solid career, but nothing like what happened with Counting Crows. But really, it's not _that_ sad, because ultimately it's about two guys who were watching some other guy get all the girls, and they just kind of felt like if they were stars they'd have all the girls too (and everyone loving them). But then again, there is that emptiness they wanted to fill, thinking stardom would fill it. In later live versions of the song, you can really hear that aspect of it.
Him, Jim Morrison, Van Morrison... Are there better American songwriters that I'm forgetting? If you're going to name three or four songs don't even bother. This dude snapped off like 10 on the debut album that are forever classics of songwriting.
Bob Dylan, Eddie Vedder, Jeff Tweedy, Kurt Kobain, Jimi Hendrix, Paul Simon, Prince, Quincy Jones, Marvin Gaye, Stevie Wonder, Joni Mitchell, Billy Joel, Bruce Springsteen, Johnny Cash and Gershwin to name a few but i do really like Counting crows.
Man I love Counting Crows but sometimes in a live scenario Adam massacres the song by doing it so far off from what the studio version is that in makes it impossible to sing along and comes across as a totally different song. I dont know why but sometimes I just want to hear them do the song the way the studio recording sounds. There are some songs that that works extremely well on live. Some of the more emotional songs like "Goodnight Elizabeth" and "Round Here" but does every song need to sound like an entirely different song live? I don't know just my opinion.
I see both sides of it. On one hand, the melodies in the studio versions are beautiful and probably as close to perfect as you can get. On the other hand, Adam gives you a unique and unprecedented performance each time he does it live, which has so much value in and of itself.
Terrible live band in my opinion. I hate it when musicians deviate from the source material too much. Unless they are PHYSICALLY putting on a show too intense to play properly then it ain't for me.

What is music? ;;-b jah
These people in the crowd have no idea how lucky they are.
How so? I'm new to the band
Shit changes over time i feel like yoyr being sarcastic though lol
A lot of them seem to be pretty aware of it to be honest!
Crowd of zombies
Lol! No shit! Totally oblivious!
Stellar performance, and the audience is so obviously enjoying the band.
Loved this. Such a great place to see such an amazing band

My Mom Jenn Loves the Counting Crows
WOW!!!! COOOOOOOL
Maria .. always on my mind...
The singer looks like sponge bobs house
I'm pupously in love...
5:57 did he just try to vibrato a microphone?
If he wasn't vibratoing it, he was doing something blasphemous to it...
So cool....Adam is so cute♥
they sound so great here
On this episode of man v.s music, music was victorious.
I love Couting Crows, shot out from brasil!!
Bro needs to spellcheck
Legendary singer
Damn, it’s Matt! Good ole days.

The dad at 5:00 w the daughter on the shoulder is what it’s about.
7:25 to 7:40 is spot on
you mean the only 15 seconds in mr jones that he sings the original melody lol
Good times
that fucking mr jones version nailed it
Mr. Jones was the song that I remember this group for. 1994 I believe it was, when they released it. Yea?
Summer of 04 was the best
reminds me of a muse concert i went to, i sang my heart out, or tried too hahaha
Somehow it's my favourite work out music
Only 3 years after 9/11…
Still better than the days we’re in in.
i know it's not a word, but holy shit, congrats on posting the world's stupidest comment
I did not know that 'Counting Crows' covered 'Big Yellow Taxi'.
Probably the best cover.
Did Adam Duritz just say he couldn't write a mopey song???
Colorblind…
For the movie shrek not in general
BRASIL BRASIL
Cê tem probleminha, cara?
Quando vc acha que não vai encontrar um brasileiro. Vc tá enganado kkkk

His Vocal Technique Is Absolutely Amazing
Mr. Jones lowkey a sad song.

Bob Dylan, Eddie Vedder, Jeff Tweedy, Kurt Kobain, Jimi Hendrix, Paul Simon, Prince, Quincy Jones, Marvin Gaye, Stevie Wonder, Joni Mitchell, Billy Joel, Bruce Springsteen, Johnny Cash and Gershwin to name a few but i do really like Counting crows.
Was just comparing Adam Duritz to Jim Morrison the other day. His songs form great narratives
Bruh Van Morrison is from Ireland
@@seant6803 Who gives a fuck, he's white and he speaks English... that's American.

His different versions are powerful. Check out Rain King.

The 40 year old singer looks possessed during the first song. Looks like he hangs outside of bodegas tryin to bum cigarettes off tourists.
Matt was such an awkward and idiotic interviewer. You could see the look on Adam's face, probably thinking "You've got to be kidding me."
Is it possible to like song but not the singer?
Terrible live band in my opinion. I hate it when musicians deviate from the source material too much. Unless they are PHYSICALLY putting on a show too intense to play properly then it ain't for me.
The most mediocre band of all time
Who do u consider not mediocre
