which brings me to the question of course that is always at the forefront of my dmb thought process (when i'm not thinking about the ways 'crash' encapsulates everything that is wrong with white middle class universities in the states) -- is dave matthews the fault of 'in your eyes'?

No they're not.
Their music is the best there is.
False in a manner that defies all semblance of language.
DMB is full of musical talent
If so, they do a fabulous job of suppressing it.
....and Dave himself is the sexiest man alive!!!
Clearly a matter of opinion, but not an opinion I happen to share with you.

Honestly, he's not that kind of "macho man around the guys, ladies man in public" kind of person. You don't have to believe me, but I think the wholesome validity he has is near impossible to fake. His outlook on life is much more pious and emotive than one might think someone in his position would have. I'm going to assume you're a woman. That said, you can understand that a LOT of men are what you described above (putting on a nice little "sensitive male" front to get what they want) but unbeknownst to them...it's obvious and we can figure it out. I can't commit to memory any instances in which he seemed less than sincere than what his lyrics convey him as.I really believe that he is genuinely writing his feelings, and I'm sure that if he thought a woman would take offense to those lyrics and get turned off to his music that he would have at least restructured the song.

Well, no. Kara expressed those sentiments as absolutes, so I decided to respond in kind. That DMB is NOT the greatest band ever isn't just my opinion, it's a hard, cold, carved-in-stone F A C T. As to whether he's sexy or not, that more of a gray area. I don't find him sexy, but then you might.

in other news, as has probably been mentioned previously--one's opinion of DMB is slightly different if one was a university student in the mid-late 90's. Then, you'd have EVEN MORE reason to hate him, cuz of those two fucks on yer dorm floor who'd play the record over and over and OVER AND FUCKING OVER AGAIN...

"hike up your dress a little more/ and show your world to me:" is a funny line. dont you guys like humor in your music? do you have to really take music so seriously? its only music. I like music as much as the next guy but why do you hate a band so much. At least they play their instruments and write their own songs. Unlike those Pop idol 'artists'.As for yuppies /lawyers/accountants liking them so what? Is that a reason to hate a band?Why not hate the overhyped Nirvana, the WORST thing to ever happen to music. They were rubbish at their instruments, Kurt couldnt sing , He was a junkie. They spawned a million of horrible 'indie & alternative' bands meaning an entire generation missed out on bands whoc ould actually play!

I'm trying to figure out what group came out in 1983 that was more talented than DMB. I'm hoping it was Kajagoogoo.
― Dan Perry (Dan Perry), Tuesday, 8 July 2003 15:06 (twenty years ago) link
Haha since when did being able to sing or play instruments matter? Give me Nirvana over DMB,Creed, Limp Bizkit et al any day.
Dan, maybe he meant Wham?
