Matt Scannell of Vertical Horizon - Everything You Want (acoustic) @ West Islip, NY

Matt Scannell, the frontman of Vertical Horizon performing a solo acoustic set at The Atlantic Auto Mall in West Islip, NY, on 8/7/10. This is part of the acoustic version of "Everything You Want". Also includes a play a long with an ice cream truck and the history of how he wrote the song. Great show by a really great guy.

I can't believe VERTICAL HORIZON didn't last that long. So amazing music, as well as TONIC, another fantastic band.

[@zmaniaac1]

He is a cool guy. Met him In VA Beach at a bar. The he walked outside and started playing guitar lol

[@m.m.3156]

It's 2023 and I still love this song as much as when I first heard it!

[@thewab1974]

He's a genuinely affable public performer and even though the crowd was considerably smaller than what he was likely accustomed to back in the awesome 90s, he still gave a great performance. Excellent rendition and impressive audience participation.

[@natevm7888]

I had no idea theyr huge in Manila Philippines there's a concertfrom other day off them online!! So good

[@paulee304]

best guitar riff sends chills down my spine

[@m.m.3156]

Matt is sooooo talented!! I never get tired of watching him perform

[@realboltfan]

Dude seems chill as hell

[@cblunceford]

yeah man i hope he comes out to Utah again. He sometimes come out to the film festivals here in utah up at park city and does some solo performances.

[@togue777]

That attitude is why he's so consistent. I have yet to see a bad performance from this guy.

[@mintgumdropz1]

The way he tells this: this is a song straight from The Other Side. Angels gave this song to him.

[@musicmadantidevil3688]

I think the lord gave him this song... not angels:)

[@DianaGonzalez1983Chulita]

This man needs to be playing Madison Square Garden ! Sooo talented and awesome still in 2020 .

[@mitchellbrown9722]

He was def part of my childhood in the 90’s brings me back to being a kid

[@claylapointe88]

But then who's going to play parking lots of car dealerships.👍😀

[@mintgumdropz1]

[@chettster]

Been a fan of Vertical Horizon since the 90's.

[@jerryp6001]

We Started with running on ice...then live stages....then back to there and back again .then they threw a curve ball with everything you want Album

[@PMeventsLT]

Great voice. Pity he is not in a big arena with full band.

[@nethsouza6570]

How sensational Matt Scannell, beautiful voice, his show is very interesting here for his audience 'in off' to watch. I loved this presentation ... wonderful music!

[@EricBlackmonGuitar]

Always loved this song. Back here after all these years.

[@CaapriceTube1]

Loved this song since 5th Grade back in 1999-2000. Classic tune, great melody!!

[@SitNSpinRecords]

Hearing him playing this on that GS series Taylor is my favorite version of this song. What a great guy and songwriter…

[@wardianangel]

was there with my little daughters was very cool and loved his storytellers intro to songs and this was great

[@romzibawazier4638]

He have good voice cool still my favorite song

[@ASINODE]

How good is this. One of the best songs I have ever heard. That is just so natural. What is he doing now. Hopefully touring, \Come to Aus.

[@Brillemeister]

This is a much more enjoyable performance than your typical arena show. Dude clearly has a passion for what he does.

[@JoannaDimples]

That was cool!!! I regret that I was in the hospital, sick and very weak when they had their concert in Manila. :( I wasn't able to come for the concert. Wish you will comeback in the Philippines. Great Talent Matt! indeed.

[@pinavinada]

I love how he told story behind the song. Had a great memory with it.

[@MrZeToZe]

Doesn’t matter where he plays. Even although I was surprised to see such a great singer playing in a used car lot. Kudos for the owner of that establishment. The talent always comes out. Hope you make it again.

[@WilliamC1966]

What a regular guy...relating his shit....💓

[@WilliamC1966]

He shared his songwriting

[@lovemoody]

This guy is just amazing. His personality, his writing, his singing, his guitar play, EVERYTHING!

[@colefisher1095]

This song is seriously my life right now

[@alpha754293]

"I gotta learn my own words to my own song." LOL....LMAO....so awesome.

[@sabresthoughts5407]

Love this guy. Great voice and this song is killer. Loved this track growing up

[@bmwd4000]

No matter how many times I hear this song it truly never gets old, I would love to meet this guy - Matt

[@coondogtheman]

A great song by a great guy and awesome band.

[@th3silentassassin357]

OMG!!!! here it is I've been trying to find this song for a week now been driving me crazy, I could remember the story at the start but non of the song would come to me. Great song!

[@nocundead]

I grew up on this song man such a great riff

[@genesiscontreras2366]

and I thought at one point that this song was by DUNCAN SHEIK since the rhythm and the similar voice made me think that since I heard it from time to time in the Fm, one day I tune in to Shazam and the biggest surprise that it was not Duncan sheik but a group called Vertical Horizon and I WOW !! the subject is beautiful without a doubt.

[@jerryp6001]

I never thought that..but barely breathing was def in my mix of acoustic driven music that also included VH and sister hazel and rockwell church and acoustic workshop and jackopierce and athenaeum and collapsis. Ha. I just rambled through my past music preferences right there. Ha.

[@nugrohotriyatma2725]

So excited to see VH playing some music But it's so far away from Indonesia

[@truthfinder4973]

dang bands from the 90s i love it and props for him to keep pushing

[@natevm7888]

Great tune, love it, mad props!! Reminds me of Ed kowalczyk in the 90s. Similar look and voice. Beautiful sounding guitar too!

[@paredescax]

I admire this man very much, for his quality as a musician and now for his humbleness. Matt you're F-awesome! Imagine if today's artists could rock it as well as he does with just a guitar, his voice, in a parking lot.

[@JotaBee2]

About once or twice a year for the past 10 years or so, somehow I end up watching this. This guy is pure talent!

[@nilotpalbaruah6157]

Its addictive..its something magic...what is it??? Thats pure Music...

[@nilotpalbaruah6157]

This is me after 3 years, listening to the same song.lol

[@jillvarela3768]

I'm still listening to this song (2017)

[@johnhookway6816]

wtf. how many people bothered to turn up........7?

[@davids.816]

I know that's pretty depressing for someone who used to be something once upon a time.

[@hrpickinstuff]

We all fall eventually. None of us were what we once were. I use to be able to pick up hot chicks in the 90's. Now I'll settle for a Milf who still has her teeth.

[@Blackskye211]

Still sounds so good.

[@tommy8087]

Looper pedal man... looper pedal. Love VH

[@realboltfan]

was thinking that too

[@RobKMusic]

Was thinking that three.

[@FIZZYTOP]

@@RobKMusic was thinking that four

[@billdek]

@@FIZZYTOP five

[@MrKnisterable]

Never had an idea

[@archiviloria]

I wish this guy the very best in his life. He seems to be such a good person.

[@Tommydudez]

Hell yeah funny goof he is..i can play this song too,course not as good

[@mariahisthe1]

why is playing there? I would be all over him at this point lol.

[@mdanoff]

Just saw Vertical Horizon play at Epcot! Great concert.

[@cuscoquerido1950]

La mejor de fines de los 90s

[@noahjohn2001]

What kind of guitar is that? Taylor?

[@tracycagliero129]

Great musician!

[@tyrellmiller778]

Love this song. Thank you Matt

[@Fossilsunleashed]

[@thucnuchandsidayodrak4284]

My​ favourite​ song

[@blindfrust]

he is everything you want? he is everything you need? oh yes he is!

[@raulbautista6667]

México aún i love. Vertical orison

[@mwroberts79]

When you said imagine hearing the intro loop throughout the song - I recorded that loop you played as a voice memo on my iPhone and played it under you playing the song. It actually lined up lol

[@zerokoolTV]

Why is he playing on the streets? Oh man after he played big Arenas what happen?

[@kcdzn]

such a talent!!!

[@nputra21]

Best friendzone song ever

[@WilliamC1966]

Incredible songwriter!!!

[@cardflopper3307]

every time i watch an artist play their song live like this, i realize how much more complex the chords are than what i've been playing!

[@BaroqueBlues]

4:00

[@scaldwell1982]

Love this video, thank you for posting!

[@rudyyjauregui1193]

i love🎉

[@martinlagrow3330]

This is actually pretty sad

[@realboltfan]

If I may challenge, I don’t think there’s anything sad about sharing your gift wherever. He certainly made his money off it.

[@UnitedStatesAviator]

I remember visiting my cousin and he took me to this I’m somewhere in the video lol

[@thegiaalencar2220]

That's incredible!I love this band!

[@keithmckinnon7047]

It's a great tune and I'm glad it isn't hard to play.

[@stevetabler1794]

He nails it !, Awesome Dude 😎

[@aethrya]

This song reminds me of Jesus.

[@stevo43068]

I had no idea...

[@chryslercartography9024]

Love it!

[@jeosneaks6534]

Great voice

[@kimmejj]

[@justinjones8278]

Is this song about god ?

[@Hopeful_Libertarian]

Actually, no, but he (singer, not He-God), understands why people would relate that way to this song.

[@EileenSharp]

Gah! I love his voice!!

[@igotdaforce9784]

who is this guy?

[@peke4197]

are you serious?

[@31leoceara]

Read the title of the video.

[@goonhoona8186]

Michael Chiklas

[@hihi6548]
