You've got to watch the live recording of this song. They both just turn it loose. It's incredible. Rob is lead singer for Matchbox Twenty. You should react to, Back To Good. Push. Real World. 3AM. If You're Gone. Unwell. Bent.

[@clifton8929]

As soon as Carlos starts playing those licks, you know who is holding that guitar. Unique sound and a legend. Thanks for the hard work and great music.

[@ellenjones7819]

Rob Thomas is the lead singer for the group Matchbox Twenty.

[@lindalou6105]

Needs to listen to 3 AM and Unwell

[@carolynsanders3185]

The lady giving Rob Thomas the eyes is his wife. :)

[@snakeinthegrass7443]

Why is she in a car with another man?🤔🤔

[@objectiveobserver4278]

Rob Thomas's wife, Madison Maldonado, has Lyme Disease and has become an advocate for helping people that are also suffering from tic borne illnesses. She was at one time a very big model but because of the Lyme Disease, there are days when can't even get out of bed.

[@objectiveobserver4278]

Marisol, not Madison. Gotta love that auto correct, even when you're right!

[@catherineday951]

​@@snakeinthegrass7443wife in real life...not in the video

[@JudyDuduks-gm4rb]

He didn't reinvent himself. That's always been him.

[@deannajones3849]

I've been listening to Santana since early 70's! Rob Thomas just adds a sexy voice and vibe!

[@julier.1902]

This song was HUGE when it came out and I never got tired of hearing it.

[@suzannezethner8180]

4:33 Matchbox 20 is the band Rob T. was in. The Live version is beyond 🔥 😍

[@chuckster255]

When this song first came out, I said it was an instant classic, and I challenged anyone to prove me wrong.

[@TripletDad3]

Santana has a very distinctive sound. You know a Santana song as soon you hear it.

[@nicolewhitt83]

He never stopped! Smooth Live video with him and Rob was recorded 1999!❤

[@groovydjs]

The Latin girl in the video is Marisol, Rob's wife.

[@setonhillstudios]

Thanks for the insight! Such an amazing tune for sure! 🎶

[@candicelitrenta8890]

Matchbox Twenty was HUGE in the 90's. Rob Thomas wrote all of their songs.

[@bringmechoc]

One of my favourite songs! It never fails to make me want to dance. I believe it was 1999, Santana brought an album called Supernatural with collaborations with various artists including Eric Clapton, Dave Matthew’s and it also included this song. Fantastic album, if you haven’t heard it I recommend you stick the whole thing on a playlist 😊

[@setonhillstudios]

Appreciate it! 😁

[@karenlobosco9646]

This album is from 2000. It walked away with something like 5 Grammy that year.

[@CharlesDuchein]

Santana may be getting old but that means nothing for his guitar skills. He came out of the womb playing like that and will still be doing it when he's 100 years old. I've played the guitar since I was in the 7th grade and still at it at 81. He will always be my favorite guitar player.

[@AuthorLaurieAnnSmith]

I LOVE this song!! 🔥🔥🔥

[@setonhillstudios]

Such a banger!! 🔥🔥

[@sg13511]

This was definitely later in Santana's career. Rob Thomas wasn't even born when Santana played Woodstock

[@ernierivas5484]

This song came at a time when Santana's career hit a lull. Someone came up with the idea of pairing up Carlos with modern vocalists. This included "Maria, Maria". It worked so well, they tried it again with "The Game of Love" (Michelle Branch).

[@jeffreywhipple9925]

Santana is the only musician to hit number 1 AFTER being elected to the Rock Hall. Thanks to this song and album it is on

[@hibhibb5429]

🔥🔥Saw Santana in concert in 1982. He was Awesome then and he's still Awesome in 2024!! Rob Thomas is a Musical Genius!! Amazing Vocalist, Songwriter, Musician. Rob's other band is MATCHBOX TWENTY and they're Incredible!!! Tons of Fantastic songs to react to from them like "OVERJOYED", "IF YOU'RE GONE", "REST STOP", "KODY", "BRIGHT LIGHTS", "UNWELL". Rob's wife, MARISOL, is in this video. She was the one in the car at the beginning of the video, dancing in the window and dancing in front of Rob on the street. 🔥🔥

[@LoisChisholm]

I love this song and have from Day One.

[@karenmandeville7116]

Santana never went away. He's been doing his thing since Woodstock. No need to reinvent himself

[@michaelhillmann3460]

This whole album has a guest singer for every song.

[@Godlygirl38]

Rob Thomas wrote this. Santana did a series. He did another with Alex Band from “The Calling” called “Why don’t you and I” that Alex Band wrote. There were a couple songs that were done. These two are my favorites though.

[@kevinfarrell3121]

You can NEVER go wrong with Rob Thomas, but add in Santana, and you have an instant smash! “Matchbox 20” (Robs band), and Counting Crows are my absolute favorite 90’s bands! Update: Check out Matchbox 20 “Bright Lights”, and Santana “Winning”

[@m.vondrake5534]

Totally East-Coast/West-Coast meets Latin. A perfect American Love Anthem

[@WEHenry]

What a song to wake up to, ALLRIGHT! Get it

[@Laura_Martin42]

This is everybody's favorite song!! There is a live version of this that is unbelievable!

[@kimtalley4496]

Rob Thomas is the frontman of Matchbox 20.

[@kevinmarshall854]

Rob Thomas is the lead singer for "Matchbox 20". This is a song that Carlos chose to have on his album that he put together that has all different singers

[@kellypickle]

It was never later in Carlos Santana‘s career. He never stopped working and having hits he is the collaborator to end all collaborators! He never stopped performing. 77 years old and he is still touring exclamation

[@setonhillstudios]

That’s so awesome! What a legend!! 🔥

[@6916dog]

The Game of Love - Santana with Michelle Branch. From the same time as this one. It was everywhere. I think it won a Grammy. Do the official music video. Great song. ❤❤❤

[@joenewman6494]

This song just jams its ass off old but still holds up thanks for this one later.❤️😎🇺🇸

[@ellencourtney7187]

Fabulous song in every way and the video elevates it. Carlos deserves every superlative. Sorry you have never seen it! Classic to many of us 🔥 Some Matchbox Twenty songs would be fun to do too-but this is peak Rob

[@MrMoon1953]

The live version is fantastic.

[@losha4324]

There is a live concert version of this song somewhere and you get treated to a lot more guitar licks from the amazing Santana! Love this song! 🥰🙌🥰

[@harrietmiller3982]

I came to comment about the live version🔥💯‼️

[@harrietmiller3982]

Great reaction🙌👏. As great as this video version is and it is, there is a live version that takes it even higher‼️💯🔥🔥🔥🎶🎶

[@michaeltaylor8835]

Santana is legendary

[@janfitzgerald3615]

Rob Thomas is from Match Box 20 and the girl in the car at the beginning and later looking on from her apartment window is Rob Thomas’s wife.

[@drjaye1962]

Rob Thomas Matchbox 20...peace...MHK

[@victorsixtythree]

This song was from Santana's 1999 album "Supernatural". It was sort of a "comeback" album for Santana. He had switched to a new record label and decided to focus on more pop style music. He collaborated with several younger artists on several of the album's songs - besides Rob Thomas there were collaborations with Lauryn Hill, Dave Matthews, CeeLo Green and others. The album was a huge hit worldwide and won nine Grammy Awards.

[@kathieovercash8414]

I love Rob Thomas. Matchbox Twenty is his band. Rob has such a unique voice and style. There's nobody like him and it goes perfectly with the great Santana. Such a great song.

[@esmeraldapooner751]

Santana always reinventing himself with the times. It is a very good hot summer Latino vibe.

[@loisvansciver9194]

Carlos Santana ask Rob Thomas to write him a song the song was written by Rob Thomas and Santana asked him the same lead

[@Reba-123]

I just love this song

[@candicelitrenta8890]

Rob Thomas wrote this song for his wife. She is featured in this video as the one in the car in the beginning and in the room upstairs with the fan on her listening to the music from downstairs.

[@angiejones297]

You need to check out the live version of this song - 🔥!

[@RoGueNavy]

Check out Matchbox 20's "Unwell", to hear Rob Thomas lay down some soulful lyrics.

[@greggroberts9730]

Good morning. I’m writing this before I see your reaction, but I cannot believe you have not heard this tune 1000 times. It was number one for like three months and played every hour for about a year on most pop radio stations. It’s a great catchy tune the vocals And the guitar playing are top shelf. Love watching your reactions, keep it up and have a great holiday.

[@decolonizeEverywhere]

They still play it in the grocery and hardware store. It's so ubiquitous it is literally elevator music at this point.

[@isinlarsa5996]

The woman in the convertible at the beginning of the video, who keeps reappearing through out is Rob Thomas' wife.

[@GinMae]

thanks, guy - Carlos was always awesome.. (when your hear Santana, you KNOW who you are hearing... lol) and he kept himself "relevant" by working with younger artists -- in this case singer Rob Thomas (Matchbox-something?) ... but Santana is the heart of the song... enjoy your reaction.. hope you listen to more of Carlos... (collab with Michelle Branch is also great.. ).. appreciate your reaction...

[@killiansred1000]

Kanami Tōno, lead guitar, songwriter for BAND-MAID, says Santana is a big influence in her music. Here’s a good one for you: play BAND-MAIDS’ song Bestie then listen to Missioned Souls’ cover of the same song. Missioned Souls is a family band from the Philippines. Great musicians.

[@LBinsocal]

At 77 Carlos is still going strong! Go see him at the House of Blues in Vegas before he retires! He sounds as good if not better now than he ever has.

[@setonhillstudios]

Unreal!! 🔥🔥

[@rmweidner7596]

I once saw an interview that Carlos Santana gave regarding this song, and he made the comment that when Rob Thomas and he met to pair Rob's lyrics to Carlos' music, Carlos was wondering just how it was that Rob knew so much about Hispanic culture - in particular, how he knew what a muñequita was and how the lyrics "...change my life, to better suit her mood..." fit that concept perfectly. ...and then Rob introduced Carlos to his wife. As Carlos put it, "Then, it all made sense."

[@hopeklemann1]

🌸 Rob Thomas matchbook 20

[@DavidSingerSongwtr]

This song won song of the year at the Grammy’s. Rob Thomas is the lead singer of Matchbox Twenty and they were big in the 90’s.

[@Tampahop]

Playing For Change... Oye Como Va, Carlos Santana.

[@jamessugg7061]

Autograph - Turn up the Radio!

[@yevettebrinegar6699]

This song came out the summer of 1999… it was the song of summer!

[@paulaanderson7691]

One of my very favorite summer pool vibes!!! Never get tired of this song. I wish they would do more together!

[@setonhillstudios]

@@paulaanderson7691 Such a great tune!! 🔥🔥

[@Eurynomea]

Savage. Plain & simple.

[@DanReviewsIt]

How am I still not sick of this song? They beat this to death in 99/00, but it's just such an absolute masterpiece of pop music. Other Santana hits from this era include Put Your Lights On f/ Everlast, Game Of Love f/ Michelle Branch, and Why Don't You & I with Chad from Nickelback. But for more Rob Thomas, check out Matchbox Twenty with Bent, Unwell, or 3am, or his solo stuff like Little Wonders, Streetcorner Symphony, or Mockingbird. Keep up the great work Steven!

[@KeithEstopinal-i2o]

When the convertible caddy is going by Rob at the beginning they are playing another Santana song called “samba pa ti” you should give it a listen its an instrumental.

[@michaeladame526]

I wouldn’t say “he reinvented himself”, as he’s been producing hits his whole career, very deep & extensive rabbit hole here. 👍🏼

[@brendahipsher273]

BLOCK PARTY IN THE HOUSE/STREETS! FORGET😂ABOUTIT!

[@lilamuzik3385]

This is absolutely best dancing song ever....picture me up dancing with my phone. Rob Thomas met the beauty in this and married her.n😊😊

[@Jude_196]

LOVED THIS SONG, when it "hit"....but, STILL LOVE OLDER SANTANA, MORE!! HUGS from TEXAS, STEVEN!!!

[@lynneblacketer6479]

First time I heard this was on the radio. Had no idea who the singer was, but immediately recognized the guitar as Carlos Santana.

[@kellypickle]

I love that move of Carlos genuflecting over the hotness of that dancer lol😂

[@JudyDuduks-gm4rb]

A master class.

[@michaelkozlosky3919]

Rob Thomas and Matchbox 20 wrote this song for Santana

[@richardrenfroe676]

Rob Thomas is from match box 20 and Santana is one of the masters of the guitar

[@hopeklemann1]

🌸 Carlos Santana is I think so underappreciated and not talked about enough.... he's amazing but this also this song is amazing as well

[@AngelaGoodwin-fh6fw]

You probably recognize him from the band Matchbox 20. More from Rob Thomas: "Unwell" (with Matchbox 20), "Someday", "Pieces", and "Lonely No More".

[@joancurrie6748]

Rob's wife is the girl in the video! Rob's band is Matchbox 20.

[@Eugene-u8f]

From the album Supernatural 1999 it went 15x platinum and won 9 Grammys.

[@setonhillstudios]

@@Eugene-u8f Wow!! 🤯

[@RosewaterElf]

It was THE song of the summer the year it came out. So cool.

[@DebraMaloney-s6z]

Around this time Santana also did a song with Everlast called Put Your Lights On, thats real good.

[@susanhanson528]

The album is called supernatural, and it is phenomenal!!!! ❤

[@setonhillstudios]

Thanks for the insight! Have a great one! 😁

He was in his forties when this album supernatural was recorded

[@tlgarrison8433]

Before I fell through a deck and tore up my shoulders, hips, and back my husband and I loved dancing. This was a favorite. I'm now disabled and walk with a came most days. We were recently at a wedding and he asked it I wanted to try and move a little when this played. Muscle memory is an amazing thing. I was stiff, but we cleared the floor as he led me through a very watered down cha-cha. I was barely about to walk back to our table and couldn't move at all for the next 2 days, but man was it worth.

[@setonhillstudios]

Oh wow! So sorry that happened to you! Hang in there! 🙏🏻

[@tlgarrison8433]

@setonhillstudios Thank you for your kind thoughts and prayers are always welcome. I have great doctors and my wonderful family is very supportive. My husband is an OTR truck driver. Our youngest son moved into the in-law suite and works from home so he can be here while his daddy is on the road. He's given up so much to help me but he never complains. 😇

[@setonhillstudios]

@@tlgarrison8433 That’s amazing! My prayers are with you and thank you for taking the time to share! Have a great one! 🙏🏻❤️

Do Santana's "Maria, Maria" for another great collab from this era.

[@SebaMankind]

Carlitos Santana es una eminencia de la guitarra a nivel mundial, y un pilar fundamental de la música latina, me gustaría que reaccionaras a Corazón Espinado - Maná ft Santana , please, you would like it, es un banger con todas sus letras. Un abrazo enorme desde Chile 🇨🇱♥️ Muy buena reacción bro.
