Goo Goo Dolls "Slide" captured in The Live Room

[@JTNewby]

Drum lick at 2:52 - never gets old.

[@KTVBOSTON]

I will NEVER get sick of this song..

[@jeffreyadams207]

This song is timeless! Saw these guys in Buffalo before they were big!

[@michaelneppel1748]

Their drummer is perfect. That high-hat work is just how it ought to be.

[@jb111082]

Glad you noticed that. Good eye!

[@binoyperera5471]

So sad he had to leave

[@michaelneppel1748]

The fill before the “May” part. I mean come on. So smooth.

[@seldomfadeofficial8718]

Sucks Mike ain't a part of The Goo Goo Dolls anymore...

[@AbdassLeo_]

@@binoyperera5471 Because his twins were born wtf

[@kittydog80]

Woke up this morning....enjoying our blessings...and thankful to be able to hang out with my rescued fur babies sitting on our porch.... drinking a cup of coffee n listening to the goos! A purrrfect day...its gonna be goo goo good!😃

[@rgoob4045]

I vividly recall seeing this video in heavy rotation on MTV/VH1 and I rarely dream, but when I do to this day, I dream of the sequence of "Mae" sitting at the burger counter staring while Johnny is singing in my ear and people spinning around us. Same dream for decades...blows my mind really...

[@barbarabarrie4910]

a masterpiece in my opinion. not just this performance, but the composition itself.

[@jbru9576]

This song is simply amazing. Tragic and hopeful at once John is an incredible song writer

[@shizazzz]

That electric guitar sounds awesome! Just completely solid!

[@briankrol7447]

Best performance of the song i have seen in quite some time

[@dogzillasquad9524]

Great band 💋💋💋💋👍👍👍

[@kepler240]

clean and crisp....shows you how good they actuallty are

[@PW1316]

I feel for these guys because they didn’t get the financial freedom like other bands and they well deserve it .Top 5 bands in my book with VAN HALEN AND THE EAGLES AND AC/DC LED ZEPPLIN GOOGOO DOLLS.Can’t get much better than that .

[@OkieGrower75]

The drummer was gettin off!!! Very cool share!!!💚💚✌

[@k-asp3r754]

What a groove.

[@agnieszkasokulska3254]

I love this band ❤ love he's voice!

You live with all your faults I wanna wake up where you are I won't say anything at all So why don't you slide Yeah, I'm gonna let it slide Don't you love the life you killed? The priest is on the phone Your father hit the wall Your ma disowned you Don't supposed I'll ever know What it means to be a man It's somethin' I can't change I'll live around it I wanna wake up where you are I won't say anything at all So why don't you slide Ooh, slide And I'll do anythin' you ever dreamed to be complete Little pieces of the nothin' that fall Oh, May Put your arms around me What you feel is what you are And what you are is beautiful Oh, May Do you wanna get married Or run away? And I'll do anythin' you ever dreamed to be complete Little pieces of the nothin' that fall Oh, May Put your arms around me What you feel is what you are And what you are is beautiful Oh, May Do you wanna get married Or run away? I wanna wake up where you are I won't say anything And I'll do anythin' you ever dreamed to be complete (Yeah, slide) Little pieces of the nothin' that fall (yeah slide) And I'll do anythin' you ever dreamed to be complete (Yeah slide) Little pieces of the nothin' that fall (Oh, oh slide) Yeah, slide between the sheets of all them beds you never knew (Yeah slide) Why don't you slide into my room Just slide into my room Oh, we'll run away, run away, run away Source: LyricFind Songwriters: John Rzeznik

[@edwarddavenport9881]

[@michaelpellegrini5401]

their music is great i think . my wife and i just got station at drum ,ny and this was when they were just getting going . bring wonderful memories of living in upstate new york ... thank you for the great music .

[@TrishaLynnDYI]

💘 Goo Goo Dolls!! When 🎵 music was good.

[@dabass14jsb]

Back when pop songs were written by 3 dudes. not 15 producers.

[@shizazzz]

Sadly true...

[@devinblalock6562]

Amen

[@thefallenskies]

***** Just 1, in this case.

[@justin6296]

savage garden is another good one... they wrote all theirs.

[@rf8362]

Painfully correct comment...nice comment as well.

[@supermanjersey]

i feel I'm good looking with this song

[@dexboyhandle]

Wow, just great song by a great band!;)

[@DafitFirdausVMU]

drummer is perfect.

[@jbru9576]

This song is about a girl who gets pregnant young and her family disowns her. I just learned that recently and it rocked my world. Adds a whole new meaning and tone to the song and it's great

[@sturmbergi8409]

This version sounds sooo modern, and I'm loving it. Also, am I the only one who really likes the way John has adjusted his tone of voice, and singing style to sound more modern? I believe it's intentional on his part. The funny thing is, that he sounds more boyiah now, in his fifties than he did way back. This guy is ever evolving, and it's so cool to see. Just listen to BOXES.

[@Teona.aka.Maria.Tureschi]

I love Goo Goo Dolls!

[@drummercook60]

Nice job guys, I've always loved this tune, right ON!

[@pierograziani8885]

Molto emozionante, conosco i Go Go da 30 anni circa.

[@kittydog80]

I 💖when he says this is Slide! The Goos r amazing! Can't wait to see them this summer!

[@robm8233]

U lads r so in the pocket.Blown away by those rythums on the acoustic guitar

[@alessandrofacciani7209]

Damn good song..love them💙

[@dogzillasquad9524]

[@tathianasantos6568]

Eu adoro esta banda do Goo Goo dolls

[@nicolasfernandolopesmachad3036]

Eu também!

[@kittydog80]

The Goos! 🥰💕

[@rivercats58]

This is so weird hearing this song played in such different manner from the past 19 years I've been listening to it

[@nydeerhunter5166]

To each their own I guess tbh

[@kinhoprado]

I love this song!

[@hobeljasonmagistrado4072]

Goo Goo 🙌🏽🙌🏽

[@lyndapeterson2304]

For as much as I love the Live Room performances they do come across as mechanical and bored... I've been catching up though and my most recent favourite is the gorgeous "As I Am"... makes me bawl every time, reminds me of my very flawed (aren't we all though) but beautiful boyfriend who gave up on himself and passed away unintentionally through bad decisions 7 years ago. I loved him as he was, always did, always would.

[@chadbaker9514]

Beautiful

[@foxmx250]

Wow he still has it!!!

[@xAliceWings]

goodness i love the song, i love the voice, i love the band

[@45dable]

I love everything is so natural, even the voice is natural. Does not need the stupid thing of autotune, which kills what the music must be.

[@Miracle7Seven]

How does he play the opening part?? Im tryna look at his hands and match the notes, I have a capo on my guitar too for the f but ill just keep tryna hear it..

[@thewanger]

Awesome!

[@gadget7894]

LOVE this track, so pleased he's keeping it alive, we had it playing at our wedding (over 6 years ago) and takes me straight back there, very emotional.... "put your arms around me, what you feel is what you are, and what you're is beautiful, wanna get married and run away".... am in disbelief we got tickets to see them Live in the UK, (Norwich) in October ! CAN .. Not... Wait !!!

[@wig99]

slide into my room and i will run away. ❤️

[@sly8220]

amazing

[@shannonjk13]

Love it

[@mfdl8034]

Tacac´s harmonies is gold here.

[@MariaCrisantaVRaya]

It's Takac...Robby's last name

[@kepler240]

thats cool as hell

[@sharon714ful]

I have heard and watched him perform all these songs before and love them all but this time he seems really sad, like something is weighing heavy on him.

[@sparky7718]

Just saw him last Wednesday night at a private function, acoustic all alone. It was a 10. He was top notch. Super nice guy, too.

[@Woodwerker]

Sharon Crabbs sounds like he is bored

[@PeteNThat]

He has had his demons in the past. He's human. Not the kind of musician to put an act over and act.

[@detecthistory5271]

Sharon Crabbs Johnny got sober 5 years ago. I faced the same struggle. This is right around that time.

[@tryphenasparks]

@@detecthistory5271 well he was just about to get married too so ......

[@loriketz2431]

❣

[@ricksmith6298]

But i do know what its like to be a man... this song always makes me smile

[@Floydandsome]

it is almost 18 years for playing this song everyone will get bored of it

[@kathleentaylormykitiak9921]

My favorite version of Slide, could have used another 15 minutes of the improv, as it was really still revving up in the end..

[@josecastro5905]

What you feel it's what you are And what you are it's beautiful 😏

[@RuledByMars]

If you love this song like I do, check out the version Live at Daryl's Place. Then let me know how That one makes you feel :)

[@binoyperera5471]

It's perfect

[@RuledByMars]

@@binoyperera5471 Thanks for your reply! That's my favorite version 😊 Happy I could share it with you

[@Cuberonix]

Sounds great, but damn if they don't look bored as hell playing this song lol. I don't blame them either.

[@jb111082]

They're not bored. They're just on it!

[@xxKilljoy0498xx]

Don't you love the life you killed! The priest is on the phone! Your father hit the wall! Your ma disowned you! Story of my life. :/

[@nydeerhunter5166]

Layla 0498 😭

[@jonathanmccormick499]

I don't like how Rzeznik says slide when he says "Why don't you ccslide". I like it when he says slide normally.

[@jpmacc94]

Quality

[@jennywu73]

Such a sad song.

[@sixsentsoldiers]

Thomas Shelby is a great singer.

[@bakerbevcam4736]

As it should be.

[@leesauter2837]

This was every night for karaoke in college lol

[@DTlolage]

Is this recording going to be released as an ep?

[@OntarioAndrews415]

[ Like ] ...a lot. :)

Probably true, that and there's no audience for them to feed off of!

[@jessegomes6366]

Oooooo Buffalo

[@embraceforever21]

lol why can't that comment be for this song too?

[@buckbard]

A shame what Rzezneck did to George Tutuska over a few dollars in royalties.

[@AleeRaya12]

What about Mike Malinin

[@sammckenzie8805]

Do you wanna get married 💫⭐️😁💖💋

[@dafid1000]

naah.. it's something he wants to do. I doubt he'll ever get tired of it

[@boogiman007]

you can tell his sick and tire of playing this song.

[@Woodwerker]

He doesn't even try to sing anymore... Sad

[@mariarasmussen6936]

Uhm :)

[@Xeltos]

How? lol, not even.

[@adriennewood-wheeler1408]

I love this song and I love this performance but John Rzeznik is the perfect example of how plastic surgery can make someone less attractive... It looks like his skin is stretched across his face.

[@PinkAlphaMom]

Adrienne Wheeler He doesn't even look like the same person.

[@Xeltos]

You obviously haven't been keeping up with them over the last 11 years and lol The song isn't even 19 years old, you fraud. The song is only about 15 years old give or take. You've been listening to the wrong song that's why it's so "different"

[@xAlyssaJones37]

This song is useless without an audience. Great rendition of it though. :D

[@lemoncrete]

love it
