This one's POWERFUL | Dave Matthews & Tim Reynolds - Bartender [REACTION]

[@dandority]

The most humble musician ever. If you don't know Dave and his catalog... You won't be disappointed getting into it, especially live.

[@krash2fast99]

Has to be live to truly appreciate DMB. Might I suggest Live at Red Rocks for a taste kzbin.info/aero/OLAK5uy_kC1dFcRGBymds6-vfaTa0bfY2A1jfTceA, or anything from their Central Park concert. Remember, this is live audio: kzbin.info/www/bejne/sKTPeJt-pM6glbs

[@dandority]

@@krash2fast99 That is my favorite live concert of theirs, hands down (Central Park). I enjoy nothing more than putting that DVD on, grabbing my Taylor guitar (bought cuz that is what Dave played for a long time) and jam along with them. Cheers!

[@del_84]

You can't say that. Music is a very subjective thing. There's no way everyone can like a particular artist.

[@krash2fast99]

@@del_84 Yes he can. He can say whatever he likes, even if you don’t agree with it. Wtf do you mean “he can’t say that”?!? Because you say so, your royal highness? Who made you king of KZbin?

[@dandority]

@@del_84 My comment was directed at @rogueRxyce since she clearly appreciated Dave's voice and this song/rendition. With that information I felt confident enough to suggest listening to the rest of his catalog since, I believe, there are much better songs and live performances available. Like their music or not they are an amazing, talented live band to watch. One Love.

This was my Fathers favorite song by them. He passed a few years ago. Every time I hear this version, instant tears. There is so much emotion that’s impossible to describe.

THANK YOU 🙏🏼 I’m 30 and was basically raised on Dave. My 2 older sisters started bringing me to his shows when I was 11 and my oldest sister took her life the next year so it had always been very sentimental for my whole family and especially my other sister and I. Dave is an incredibly gifted lyricist and it’s truly a shame how he’s dismissed.

[@rorto002]

I agree with you, I think he is too complex for some

[@empathninja541]

[@scorpioprince7]

Dave Matthews is hands down one of the most intense, direct, raw lyricists in music's history. I often wonder if he's aware of his own power which is in a class of it's own among the greats. An exceptional writer, performer, vocalist, singer, instrumentalist. He's an all rounder and all all rounders have been known to be out of this world.

[@Zoot_of_Anthrax]

Dave absolutely paints like van gogh with words. It always made me laugh how in the 90s dave was an absolute sex symbol (i felt it too) despite the fact he sings with facial expressions like a man being hit by a taser while having violent gastric distress. But i think that is why he is so attractive - he puts absolutely 200% into his voice and emotional release while singing. You cant help but be touched deeply by someone like that

I'll be 60 this year and I've been wanting to see him in concert for over 20 years and...finally! Saw him last year for the first time and it was everything I knew it would be. I'm beyond thrilled that you felt what I've been feeling about his music for so long. Seeing him live..he sings from his soul. He wrings the emotions right out of you and he and his fantastic band will provide a show you won't soon forget. The beauty of this band is they always seem to sing like its the first concert they've ever done. They don't phone it in. He especially doesn't. He sings, whispers, growls, cajoles...and you react right along with him. You can't help it...

This reaction made me quite emotional. Dave matthews has saved my life several times over the last 25 years. You should start by reading about Dave's history....where he came from ...his family...etc. then go back in time and start listening to his music. His music will suck you in and you will be a life long super fan. With Dave , you are either super fans or they general don't like his music. There is no in-between. It's like a club. Either you are in or you're out. Your life will be better for being in. I guarantee that every single person in the audience knew every single word of that song. He's that powerful. Dave is also a generous caring human ...very down to earth and grounded. He shines mostly when he has his big bang and they are all geniuses. Tim is a guitar genius. You can see Dave alone on tiny desk concert if you want to see him up close and personal. I hope you keep going and become a super fan.

[@AndImOkayWithIt]

Don’t mistake the felt effects as cause. I have to argue that the “this” you speak of, the reaction of the listener, is but an EFFECT of the performance, the motive for which, is simply authentic & personal, for Dave.. and as a result of exactly THAT, we feel it..& it resonates to the extent that we end up personalizing it.

Not only was it 2 sets but for 25 yrs(at least) a different show a different set list...NEVER the same! I am a CHRISTIAN! Always have been. When I say it's like church i don't mean like Dave's a God. When you're waiting to go in especially Pit People we wait hours & hours. Heat or rain it doesn't matter bc we come prepared. Eat, drink & be merry take a nap start it all again yea that kinda wait. I don't socialize much bc my anxiety is ridiculous unless I'm dranking! The excitement we share!! You're almost giddy or we are. This comment is way too long!! We laugh we cry we dance & holy hell if it's your 1st show...life changing! You want to get railed of course if ur in Pit!!!

SOULISH OR SPIRITUAL? Verse 14 of 1st Corinthians says, "But a soulish man does not receive the things of the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him and he is not able to know them because they are discerned spiritually." Soulish men are those who have not been regenerated By Holiness and who do not have a new spirit. They do not have an intuition; what they have is only the mind, emotion, and will of the soul. They can reason, judge logically, and express what they like, but they cannot "receive the things of the Spirit of God" because they do not have a regenerated spirit.

Since I first witnessed DMB live, his live performances are absolutely spiritual. He never plays a 65 minute set.. He gets into an absolute trance. Plays his heart out, every song, every note, acknowledging his fans, jokes with the audience & plays for well over two hours.. It's non stop perfection. He has mastered his craft. He is a poet, phenomenal performer & magical, soulful, blessed singer/songwriter/musician that has been getting better with each passing year.. Every one of his songs is masterful.. Dave Mathews is 'master class' & an absolute soundtrack of our lives, journey & path in life.. He is One of the greatest. Been touring for well over 30+ years & still creating, performing and making us fans feel fulfilled & happy after creating songs that make you remember certain times of your life, memories, growth, path/journey. He still gives me the chills at age 44.. He is a true gift to music lovers. 30+ years of Quality, Original, masterful music.. tours/shows still give me the chills!!

I cannot thank you enough for reviewing this. I have listened and watched Dave so many times alone your reaction was perfect. If you can do another please.

[@thebustedstuffbus194]

My first Dave concert was in 1996 and since then I’ve been to 301 of his concerts. His music still moves me and it’s a beautiful feeling to see someone’s first time hearing him and actually feeling the song. Please get yourself to a live show to get the full experience! Much love!

[@demigee34]

Wow, watching someone who is not a fan listen, and watch them perform for the first time, is magical. You helped me to see this song from a different perspective, and your emotions, made me emotional as well. Dave, DMB, Dave & Tim are amazing performers. I only hope that this is not the last of their music that you watch and listen to. There are so many songs that are so beautiful. Thank you for the gift of this video.

LOVE Dave Matthews! I took my future wife on a first date to see a little duo in a coffee shop in Virginia back in the early 90’s and ever since then we have become life long fans. You should check out Crush on the same album…really shows off Tim’s beautiful gift. If there’s one musician who can change lives for the better IT IS Dave Matthews!

[@michaelweiner1]

Fantastic review of one of my favorite live shows.Tim Reynolds is amazing on the slide guitar and Dave sounds amazing in this beautiful venue!! I love this song, version, concert and you really teared me up with your reaction. Glad you enjoyed it.

[@joeyboombatz68able]

I'm about to watch now but I am going to comment first. I'm so excited about this reaction! DMB had been my favorite band since I was a teen 20 years ago. I went to their concert in NJ last night at PNC and it was amazing. It was my 23rd show and after 2 years of quarantine and no concerts it felt great! You totally fit the vibe for a DMB fan. Listen to Two Step next.

[@SENSO1966]

Rogue, thank you for the extremity of depth of your humanness...it is an honor to watch, to feel your emotion...

[@steecie3045]

I just discovered Dave Matthews 6 years ago. The first time I went to a show was Dave and Tim in 2017. I was leary of not seeing full band first but now, I'm so glad it worked out the way it did. The songs are so much more "spiritual" this way. And I don't mean religious. Now, I have attended 2 D&T shows and 10 shows full band. I have been captivated. ❤

[@854medic]

2017 where? My wife and I were lucky enough to be able to see them at the Barcelona Maya.

[@steecie3045]

@@854medic Detroit and Blossom (Ohio). That was the tour that year. No full band. Rumor was they took the year off because of "Boyd Issues".

[@BrookeMcLymond]

Just Dave and Tim is such a treat. I try to get to FarmAid every chance I get. Thankfully I live near CMAC. They throw in an occasional show at that venue with just Dave and Tim even when the whole band is touring!

[@careymcauliffe]

Welcome! Their music is one of the best gifts that life can give. ❤️🥰❤️

[@d1gw33d]

@@854medic I'd highly recommend seeing them in a proper theater. The Mexico trips are fun, but acoustically they're not even close to D&T in a theater.

[@olroy61]

12 years ago I found my youngest son after he had taken his own life. Dave Matthews was his favorite artist. This song, among others of his, are emotional hot spots for me. Seeing you react to his vocals the way I do, had me reaching for the tissues too. Bless you! ❤

Dave and crew have helped me through some of my darkest times in life with their music. People don't know that Dave himself has been through a lot of trauma in his life. His sister was murdered. They moved around a lot, and he was living in South Africa during apartheid seeing the brutality.

[@timothyfoote6658]

his dad died when he was 10 ort 13 or something...

[@jefflast9489]

I think the brutality in South Africa is far worse today than it ever was during apartheid.

[@tinydancer7343]

Amen. I’m 48 and have been a fan since 1996. DMB and Tim Reynolds have guided me through a lifetime of beauty, love, grief, pain, friendship and heartache of every kind imaginable. He and his band are a gift for us all. 💜

[@wesbryan4590]

If you think the lyrics for bartender are powerful I highly recommend you listen to Minarets, The Last Stop, and Cry Freedom. I would love to see your reaction to all three. Others that invoke some deep emotions are Grey Street (with 3rd verse) and The Stone, especially once you understand the context behind it.

[@JLIGHT8823]

Cry Freedom does me in every time. Great suggestions 👍

With tears in my eyes I type this…as a Gen X’er I consider DMB the greatest band of my generation. My heart erupts with joy when the younger generations are introduced to Dave’s music. Your reaction was priceless! Blessings be upon you thank you for sharing. 🙏🏻

[@scottvanhille5688]

Love it when Royce gets emotional. That's when you know a song has touched someone. I can easily see Peter Gabriel singing this as well.

[@wesbryan4590]

Peter Gabriel is definitely an influence on Dave Matthews’ music. He has regularly covered Sledgehammer and Solsbury Hill.

[@MichaelLazorchak]

Peter Gabriel is a definite influence on Dave Matthews specifically. This entire concert at Radio City is amazing and Dave tells some of the influences behind a few songs.

[@mophish]

I'm a huge Dave Matthews fan and this is one of my favorite songs, I've listened to it countless times. This is the first time it's ever made me cry. Thanks for helping me to hear this song in a whole new light.

[@dillantaylor2704]

I have search far wide and wide throughout KZbin to find a reaction to this song from a reactor with the exact same feeling as I got when I first heard this. I am so glad you did this, I am so glad I found you. I hate that a lot of people hate on Dave and his music. He's an incredible singer, an incredible songwriter. If only people wouldn't look for flashy things and focus on looks and actually focus, zero in on the talent that people like Dave or Gordon Lightfoot or Don McLean have, then things would be a little bit better. Thank you so so so so MUCH FOR THIS!!!

[@ericcme]

Yeah! So amazing to see this! Yeah, so Tim used to be in a family gospel band, many years ago- "The Reynolds Five". He was in a gospel band with his brother and sister, before ever meeting Dave.. but man.. he is of another world.. that Reynolds family.. out of this world. As people and musicians..

[@GaSouthernEagles62]

Seen Dave 46 times and watching you feel the emotions you’re feeling as Bartender unfolds is one of the main reasons why I continue to go back. The way this man has with words is just unbelievable. You should check out and read into the lyrics of “The Stone” and “You Never Know”, I think you’d really enjoy them.

[@Treevors30]

4:10 my favorite album by Dave Matthews was crash in it's strange because tonight I heard the song Say Goodbye but I didn't know the lyrics I guess before so I didn't really hear the song before and it's kind of strange because one of my ex-girlfriends just recently passed away and throughout our whole life we were off and on sometimes one night here but going back to being friends and it's so strange you hear a song but then you hear a song and that was moving especially the album version of it it sounds amazing this whole week's been strange

[@DMBVR4]

I was at that show, this performance as the opener for the evening was absolutely incredible. Bartender is always good to see live but that one was absolutely scintillating.
