I don’t know how Ross does it but I love to watch him play. I’ve watched this entire concert many many times. I’ll never get sick of it… and then Shane on drums just kills it.

Back when Collective Soul totally rocked. For the 90’s!

[@privatename3621]

This sounds SOOOO GOOD! If you ever wondered if Collective Soul dressed up their studio sound with a lot of tricks that could never be performed live, then this proves that false. It sounds just exactly like the studio version and this was LIVE kiddies! No Pro Tools fakery here.

[@grahamjarman]

[@jackhaugh]

I saw Rick Beato interview their lead singer, and he said he yelled “Yeah” through the cardboard at the center of a used roll of toilet paper in the studio. Some trick! I saw them open for Hootie and the Blowfish last night, and he doesn’t even sing that part anymore. All 25k people in attendance did it for him!!! I guess that’s the real trick!

Usually I don’t get to hear this song on the radio, but I did just today and it just made my day! They usually just play the same handful of CS songs. GOOD songs, but it’s nice when anything else of theirs gets any air time at all!

I saw them open for Sammy Hagar at the Toledo Zoo, yes, zoo, a few years back and I have to say they should have given Sammy the rest of the day off. These guys absolutely rocked!!!

[@ashemgold]

Love it when the back up band blows the big boys off the stage. It happened in Houston in 1980 on the Rolling Stones Steel Wheels tour when ZZ Top opened for them in the 70,000 seat Astrodome for two nights only. The Little Ole Band from Texas showed up and showed out!

[@darkwun1461]

Came of age in the 90's, this song didn't stand out from their other singles as much as say Shine or Gel (which I don't care for as much now), but after getting nostalgic and revisiting CS, this is definitely my favorite CS track , esp. when it's played like this. I don't think the original recording had the bass levels right like it is here.

[@kamijenkins4202]

Long time fan here! COLLECTIVE SOUL was the very first rock concert I ever went to. It was in Charlotte, N.C. My Dad got the tickets and came and got 3 of my friends out of school to go to it!! Cool Dad, RIGHT!?! Anywayz, we didn't know the name of the band so halfway on our hour trip to Charlotte, I ask my Dad. "Dad, who is the band"? He responds happily, "Collective Soul"! I say, "Collective Soul, who is that"?? He say's, "they are a new band" So I'm like ahh...thinking this is gonna suck!! My AWESOME Dad turns on the radio and about 25 mins later he yells, "This is them and turns the radio up". My eyes get big as quarters and I jump outta my seat and yell, "OMG, I LOoooVE this band. I listen to them on the radio ALL THE TIME"!! I just didn't know the name at the time!! I say "Dad, you did a great job. Cool Dad move"!! Needless to say, I was very happy with his choice and we all had a blast all night long. Ross Childers changed my life forever that night without him knowing it!! I have loved electric guitar ever since that night. I mean I really LOVE it and ALL who play it. Ross plays with his soul. I hated to hear that he was no longer in the band. But things happen for a reason. Collective Soul ROCKS and I love the band so much. It was an amazing show and I have even went to more shows because I love the band so much. I am so glad that the band is still together and that you cool guys are still Rocking Out!! Great job to you all. I can not wait to hear more and see more of you guys. Many blessings to you all.
