When I was in HS in the late 90s I saw Dave in concert. This song spoke to me more than I can articulate or express. There is something about the feel and tone of this masterpiece that has always held a place in my heart. IMO it is a perfect song when I needed it the most.
Sounds like you just needed to get laid lol 😂 jp. It's just this song is about being in a situation where you get romantic with someone you can't but do and must Say Goodbye.
I just realized that this song has the tension of wanting to be together,the realization, then the afterglow, to let you know it all happened...very clever Dave!
I was there. Amazing show! Best set list ever! Some of the songs they played that night: Two Step, Grace is Gone, Satellite, Crush, #41, One Sweet World, Warehouse, Don't Drink the Water, #40, The Space Between...
Say Goodbye and Ants is my number 2. This sound is just unbelievable in sooooo many ways. I will never forget listening to this song driving to Red Rocks in West Vegas to chill out and this song made the drive awesome.
I think there's something quite beautiful in the subtlety of saying 'say goodbye' right at the end, having said 'go back to being friends'. Makes it sounds like a cautionary tale a little bit. Like they're 2 friends, who have have feelings who each other but will never be together, have one night together with the intention of going back to normal, 'going back to being friends', but once the deed is done and they come to it, it's too painful and too difficult to be friends anymore so they 'say goodbye'. Might not be what dave intended. Might be say goodbye as in saying goodbye, see you around, see you next week or whatever. The great thing about it is you could easily make it mean either.
Have only seen them live once. Wish i could tour with them for all the shows. Yes, Carter used 3 different stick types seamless in that song!! He is Amazing Drummer. PERIOD. End of discussion. Thank you for posting!
I see him as such, but Dave writes these very good songs too. In general though, Carter always struck me as the meal ticket for the whole band. He contributes so much flash, power, and swagger, he has fueled this band as much as Dave.
For some reason I could never play guitar and sing this song with this speed. I always fuck up the rhythm. Is it possible Carter is just making Dave's life harder just for fun?
Emerating this and Champagne supernova we have Lawrence liver Livermore national laboratory has liberal literally retrieved "star collapse" In the news they'll be calling it cold fusion they've achieved cold fusion
You are not human if Carter doesn't put a damn smile on your face💜
I've never understood how their TH-cam channel only has 86k subscribers. Should be in the millions. Best band around.
I just added one to the tally....
250K now they’re getting there
Agree. But their videos are on so many other channels. I just recently subscribed myself.
And now I need to see what videos the channel has for "Recently"...
Because everyone owns all the albums probably lol
#41 into Say Goodbye....., I love this
Song!!
Makes my hands sweat.
The goat playing one of the best songs ever made
Dave Mathews Band, now this is music, not the pop shit kids listen nowadays. Thank you for the music, God bless you!
Only Dave can make a friend's with benefits situation into a beautiful song
Dave, Dave, Dave, where did these lyrics ever come from. Crushing my soul.......
We all want to know who she was and wish it was us. 😊
best drummer in the world
It started like this and now we're married ✌️

The Drums intro and Flute Solo, are the ultimate mating ritual...
well Said !!!
I miss Boyd so bad!! He was such a big part of the live shows 4 me
Carter is the greatest drummer alive.
People like to debate this with me but I definitely agree.
Without a doubt. And his smile kills me.
Unequivocally
Danny...Carey
He's DMB's biggest fan. I love watching him play.

Still one of my favorite DMB songs :)
Jeff Coffin is amazing too though. He deserves all the love possible

Carter is a live legend!
Marcos Ávila Just live? I’d say his skills on record are even more impressive
He plays better in that particular jersey lol
These lyrics need a follow up
I think it’s well said!! ✌️❤️😺
Great band - just watched his live stream via Twitter sponsored by Verizon - what a great show from his home.
Sheer Absolute Joy = Carter Beauford
Such a treat to hear played live.
Amazing!! One of my fave ever❤️ Bring back this Summer
Have only seen them live once. Wish i could tour with them for all the shows. Yes, Carter used 3 different stick types seamless in that song!! He is Amazing Drummer. PERIOD. End of discussion. Thank you for posting!
Carter is a God. Mad skills!
I've seen them a couple of times....I think. As a non pot smoker, I'm a lightweight for a contact high!
That's just some damn good shit...
Carter Beauford ladies and gentleman
So ahead of his time with this one
can't help but like every comment on this fucking video. amazing following for amazing music❤️ 23 days til I see my man
One of my favorites
41--> Say Goodbye should be a staple this summer. Hardcore and casual fans will enjoy and it's a nice tip of the hat to Crash.
That flute, though! MMmmmmmmm!
This is a certified platinum gold pantie dropper 😘
oh man......you know it and I have used it for that as well :)))). beautiful song!!!
As woman, I would normally tell you idiots to bugger off, but in this case you are 100
Totally! Lost my virginity to this song in '98!
Carter at the end. God Level!
Cry to this song🙏🏻🙏🏻
I have an audio cd of this show I put in my CD player in 2016,. I have never removed it (now 2019).
Best Dmb Song!
Amazing!
Genius Carter
This was always on my mix tape I made for my X girlfriends as I tried to win them back with a mix tape ...it was the 90s
que banda ,,,,excelentes musicos ,que batero
My favorite DMB song
And Oh lawd, Carter
Why do I feel like Carter is the centerpiece of this band? Maybe he is.
Because he is.....
I see him as such, but Dave writes these very good songs too. In general though, Carter always struck me as the meal ticket for the whole band. He contributes so much flash, power, and swagger, he has fueled this band as much as Dave.
Yea, it's called MUSIC..
Good music
Tim mutha fuckin Reynolds absolutely destroying it round 6:30 beautiful tone and lines
Carter plays best in that shirt. Go check I’m serious lol
Essa bateria do carter tem uma afinação muito perfeita. Banda sem comentários!!!
Dave matthews bAby blue
Kept thinking Dave was going to surprise and break into a cover of “locomotive breath” by Jethro Tull...one of these days...
Bone Time.😎
Jane at Blossom from last year next! please??
Is that Boyd on violin. I so miss him.😮
Marius, das ist so verletzend.. Goodbye..
For some reason I could never play guitar and sing this song with this speed. I always fuck up the rhythm. Is it possible Carter is just making Dave's life harder just for fun?
The lyrics....
Emerating this and Champagne supernova we have Lawrence liver Livermore national laboratory has liberal literally retrieved "star collapse"
In the news they'll be calling it cold fusion they've achieved cold fusion
Is riding trails for a long long time, the Halo on the street ...
Why didn't they ever pick up another violin, or just forgive Boyd. I still don't understand this.
too fast!!!!!
