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.
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. 🎼💗
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...
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.
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.)
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💞💞
Hand me All the way Up 🔝 Thank God for the freedom 🆓 of Choice 💯 Who needs eyes 👀 or for that matter sight when one’s heart carries all of, our 🌎, my ♥️, most importantly I 🧚🏼
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
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.
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 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.
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

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
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.....
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

He has a new album released!
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.
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...
He rarely does the rasp w/ his voice but absolutely NAILS it in this song!
Its good shiz
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
I'm sorry but it doesn't get better than this! By far the best song of theirs and my favorite song period
Collin Snorek Agreed and Me too ♥️

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

I always felt like a hand me down and the lyrics are exactly what I felt like.
I have cried over 200 nights over this song. Its resinates in my soul
I miss this kind of music. But dang... The piano part...stings to the bone... 😢😢

Someday they'll find your small town world
On a big town avenue
Gonna make you like the way they talk
When they're talking to you
Gonna make you break out of your shell
'Cause they tell you to
Gonna make you like the way they lie
Better than the truth
They'll tell you everything
You wanted someone else to say
They're gonna break your heart, yeah
From what I've seen
You're just one more hand me down
'Cause no one's tried to give you
What you need
So lay all your troubles down
I am with you now
Somebody oughta take you in
Try to make you love again
Try to make you like the way they feel
When they're under your skin
Never once do you think that they would lie
When they're holding you
Then you wonder why they haven't called
When they said they'd call you
You'll start to wonder
If you're ever gonna make it by
You'll start to think
You were born blind
From what I've seen
You're just one more hand me down
'Cause no one's tried to give you
What you need
So lay all your troubles down
I am with you now
I'm here for the hard times
The straight to your heart times
When living ain't easy
You can stand up against me
And maybe rely on me
And cry on me, yeah
Oh no, no, no
Someday they'll open up your world
Shake you down to the drawing board
They'll do their best to change you
They still can't erase you
From what I've seen
You're just one more hand me down
'Cause no one's tried to give you
What you need
So lay all your troubles down
I am with you now
Lay them down on me
Oh yeah
You're just one more hand me down
And all those nights
Don't give you what you need
So lay all your troubles down
On me
Love Matchbox Twenty!!!!!
One of my favorites...several late nights listening to this one!! Never get tired of beautiful song
I love this song. Crank it.
It's just so damn good!!!
A wonderful soul turned me onto this; he has no idea what all has happened to me, but, damn, he knew to play this for me.
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
