This is sooooo much better than the crap they play on radio stations these days! Absolutely beautiful music.

[@Hiedi3o3]

Absolutely love this one. Still listening 🎶 to Rob Thomas and Matchbox Twenty in 2023 and will be listening to them in 2024 and so on.

[@T.Novak5312]

Rob Thomas is a lyrical genius & has a one of a kind vocal sound that cannot be imitated.

[@ShandaKBransom-bo7uh]

You got that right!

[@erin2112]

And longevity

[@jeanenemeadows1237]

Agreed on all ❤

[@mcace1372]

I agree I love Rob Thomas!!! However lol, I can imitate his voice virtually flawlessly for some reason I’ve always been able to naturally…. His vocal style is one of my favorite to sing and listen to.

[@gloriaf8517]

Wow dam good !!! Mad season album is so underrated. His voice still melts me

[@chrisbas9490]

Agreed. "You wont be mine" is an OPUS!

[@shazaridarius6963]

OMG sooo awesome!! STILL Loving this sexy man with an amazing voice in 2024 🎉❤ 🌹 who else still loves this amazing band?

[@kayanncee8291]

Love this song. I think it was one of their songs that didn’t get as much attention, but it’s one of my favorites.

[@chrisbas9490]

Same with "Last beautiful girl." The whole album is underrated.

[@colebry04]

Dr

[@tammypowell73]

Same with " Leave " and " Josephine "

[@donnaschneider2937]

Love this song especially when he says "It came to mind that I didn't care!"

[@joshrapp6716]

I love you. And you know this. Please just home. I miss everything

[@joshrapp6716]

I know you are listening.

[@sheilagreenfield8102]

That was my exact feeling when I knew my marriage was over.

[@zrx338]

100%. And tell me you never felt that way about someone? Killer line for sure!

[@tiebaojin]

Rob Thomas has sung the words of my life. Truly amazing,

[@misty8794]

Imo alot artist don’t sound the same live as they do on the album but Rob Thomas definitely does, n i could listen to him for hours ❤

[@jamieroberts1985]

Very underrated song love it!

[@irisstevens1540]

Life sucks sometimes x

[@discussdebate]

BEST SONG THAT (TO ME) GOES BASICALLY UNNOTICED

[@davidhudson4542]

Douglas Steven Luna agree... most people (the common fan) has never heard it.

[@Micah-kbluezr]

Agreed

[@georgia9886]

So underrated

[@damouldo]

Yes..I saw them sing this in a small auditorium @ UMASS Amherst..like 500 ppl..the back screen vid they played was if licence plates..great song..changing metaphors if Rest Stop..love it

[@Lkn88]

The best band of all time for me is Matchbox 20. Saw them for the 1st time last year in Gilford, NH. Literally one of the best days in my life aside from graduating from grad school in 2021. I'm 43 and I loved them in my 20's and their even better now! Love u guys❤

[@deekromie396]

I love the symphony in this song, makes it awesome 👌 👏 👍 😍

[@elizabeththompson9814]

Here in 2021 still jammin this song!

[@chrisbas9490]

2023!!!

[@sheilagreenfield8102]

I can relate to this song so well and how when I finally ended my marriage I just didn’t care and couldn’t go another step (mile) further acting like I cared. It’s not cruel but rather self preservation and letting the other person go for their own benefit to find their “person” who cared.

[@Im_not_your_mamaluke]

Okay I'll give you self preservation, but I still think it's cruel not to drive him the last three miles. It may have taken her, what, three minutes. I think she is a b*tch. PERIOD! Otherwise great song.

[@michellehall2154]

Oh my goodness..Thiis is the most amazing song ever ❤

[@CONCRETEMAN5581]

Miss the days before i knew how it all would end up.....

[@davidhudson4542]

ConcreteMan 1776 I really felt this comment, I’m on the verge of 40 yrs old. I miss everything about the 90’s and what it was to be young.

[@burrdyr5743]

And I'm reading your comments in 2021. Let's go back.

[@Chrisassin]

Let’s all go back

[@jodyellison2563]

❤ love Rob Thomas, big MATCHBOX 20 FAN. Before anyone knew who they were. Such a great writer. I swear...he is looking inside of me.

[@pattin5411]

Always have been one of my favourite songs. There aren’t many new artists that can sing live as incredibly well as Rob!! True talent ❤️

[@2312medic]

Matchbox 20 has been one of my favorite bands since around 2000 when I was just enlisting in the Army prior to the world going tipsy turvy and has steadfastly remained as such through the world re-righting it’s self and falling back over. Thanks for that - the music brings sanity. Love you guys

[@coryjackson6944]

Has been mine since their inception! For some reason their music just resonated with me..

[@Samanosuke1138]

I used to cry listening to this song. Its so freaking good..

[@BrookeWrightisMadamMagnolia]

Sexy man, sexy voice! I'll never tire of Matchbox Twenty. Many good days dancing around the house listening to this fantastic band!

[@barton1809]

It's May 2nd 2023 & if you're listening to this Great Song & Voice of Rob Thomas & his Great Songwriting on Rest Stop 🔥 Matchbox Twenty never gets old they're Great 👍 in Concert & they're back together touring ❤️ 🔥

[@CherylHShannon]

You definitely have a way with words Rob. Thank you and all of Matchbox 20 for the best songs.

[@danielherrera8574]

Cheryl Shannon im not a troll but....hell yeah!

[@bolwell]

Such a good story and Paul Doucette's drumming just superb

[@jjnb57]

You gotta respect the girl in this song. She decided it wasn't going anywhere and ended it right then and there. No compromising and no second guessing. Didn't string anyone along and just ended it. This is how relationships should end.

[@eddiemartinez773]

I've always told people this is the best breakup song ever written. I've actually made a whole zine on this song and why it should be the template for every breakup. Its so beautiful and simple.

[@julesharger8865]

@@eddiemartinez773 I have to agree with you perfect break up song!!!!

[@ryankenyon5010]

True. I'm sure Rob would have preferred that she had this epiphany just a few minutes later, though.

[@paulaquip1454]

Are you actually serious...u should have enough respect to end on better terms...

[@iyot1020]

And this is why i always bring my own because cunts would have no problem ditching you in the middle of the freeway

[@smaxwell8363]

"While you were sleepin' I was listenin' to the radio and wonderin' what your dreamin' when -- it came to mind that I didn't care." "So I thought: Hell if it's over, well I had better end it quick or I could lose my nerve..." I've been in this situation. This song captures it perfectly! I didn't lose my nerve.

[@user-gm8ou4cj5q]

The GOAT

[@lardellmahkee1940]

I was listening to the radio........hell if its over..........just 3 miles from the rest stop...

[@leannnoak7934]

I remember watching this on TV when it aired!!! Love Rob, his voice and writing skills

[@carloboado3277]

This is my favorite song from their mad season album.

[@Samanosuke1138]

For me, its a 3-way toss up between this song, Bed of Lies, and Leave

[@TheGuiltySaver]

Super underrated album of MB20

[@Samanosuke1138]

@@TheGuiltySaver I wouldn't call Mad Season underrated lol... It was bigger than their first lol.. But I get what you're saying... It doesn't seem to get a lot of love..

There is no such thing as a Bad Rob Thomas Song, the man is a Genius!

[@tmartin8902]

Beautiful Loved them then, love them now.

[@susiesmith1290]

Rob Thomas IS his music 🎶 I love watching him and his talented band.

[@vixter28]

2022 still rockin 🎶🎸💃🏻 Saw them 2001 ! Fantastic Why don’t they play on radio ?

[@andreamize4496]

“Crumpled down man.”Genius lyrics & voice! Love Rob Thomas and this song!

[@larryhorsman4226]

The line is, "she knew the crumpled-up promise of this broken-down man......"

[@eddiemartinez773]

I have always believed this to be one of the best breakup songs of all time. I made a 16pg Zine all about this song and what it means to me.

[@bodenwhitmore7699]

I totally agree, it is a great breakup song, I recently related to it more than ever when the girl who I was with ended our relationship totally abruptly and out of the blue, and just stopped it, basically using the explanation in the song nearly word for word. This song is just wonderful.

[@julesharger8865]

Again have to totally agree best break up song. Short and Simple!

[@immediateegret2120]

Can we see the Zine?

[@nooksandcrannies9871]

One of my favorite MB20 songs. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

I love the music by MB 20 and this song is one of their best ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤. The voice of Rob Thomas is so beautiful 💋💪💋 ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@user-xp8dk9bo7y]

My #1 favorite Matchbox Twenty song. I've been to 3 concerts and have yet to hear them play it live. Guess I'll have to keep buying those tickets.. :)

[@jeanettekennedy9522]

i was lucky enough to see them July 2023. YES they played REST STOP!! so lucky to be there

[@carlyszalay7802]

Man got to respect the guy he has musical talent no other has👍💯

[@stephenanderson8137]

Matchbox Twenty this ain't no pop band! Rob Thomas is one of the best song writers out there. (In my opinion the best) 3 Am, back to good , Unwell , Rest stop , Bright lites, Hand me down , Long Day , l really cannot think of one bad song they ever recorded .

[@michaelk1812]

Great song....miss real music

[@nina_mendes]

Love Matchbox 20 ❤

[@nog999]

At 58 I have been through the 80s that were amazing then in 1994 stumbled across MB20 on MTV one night and WOW just amazing and still love them in 2024 Best Band of all time

[@Jewls-uk7lp]

Godd Rob Thomas and this song: subjects of my high school feels

[@Lonewolf83ca]

This song deserves more views. The coldest line gets me each time, "While you were sleeping, I was listening to the radio and wondering what you were dreaming then it came to mind that I didn't care." At least she ended it quickly, classless, but quickly.. some people wait years to tell the other person.

[@joyan.aranha]

All time fan of this band.

[@CasaDeChihuahuas]

This song hits hard. it's always interesting how someone can write lyrics that are so unique to their experience, yet you've had it happen too-- and you realize you aren't alone . So, to all of us who have been literally dumped on the side of the road by someone who was supposed to love us-- we have this song. Huge hugs and much love.

[@jeniferjones1205]

I’ve lived this song.

I love the orchestra and wondering what your dreaming ~ realize i didn't care

[@barefootwanderer]

I came to Matchbox Twenty after hearing Mad Season on the radio so many years ago and realising it was the guy who sang Smooth with Santana. Stayed for this song. It never fails to pull the emotion out of me. I have no personal experience that it resonates with, but I do have a very narrative imagination, this song paints a picture in my imagination. Thank you, Matchbox Twenty for this little masterpiece of musical storytelling.

[@lauraheadley9026]

2nd favorite only to Long Day!

Just three miles from the rest stop and she slams on the brakes She said, "I tried to be, but I'm not, so could you please collect your things? Well, I don't want to be cold, I don't want to be cruel But I gotta find more than what's happening with you And if you would open up the door..." She said, "While you were sleeping Well, I was listening to the radio and wondering what you're dreaming When it came to mind that I didn't care" And I thought, "Hell, if it's over Well, I had better end it quick or I could lose my nerve" Are you listening? Can you hear me? Have you forgotten? Just three miles from the rest stop and my mouth's too dry to rage The light was shining from the radio and I could barely see her face But she knew all the words that I never had said She knew the crumpled up promise of this broken down man And as I opened up the door... She said, "While you were sleeping Well, I was listening to the radio and wondering what you're dreaming When it came to mind that I didn't care" And I thought, "Hell, if it's over Then I had better end it quick or I could lose my nerve" Are you listening? Can you hear me? Can you hear me? Can you hear me? (Can you hear me?) Can you hear me? "While you were sleeping Well, I was listening to the radio and wondering what you're dreaming When it came to mind that I didn't care" So I thought, "Hell, if it's over Well, I had better end it quick or I could lose all my nerve" Are you listening?
