If you've never seen NKOTB live you have no idea just how fun that over-the-head arm wave is!

I think the new single rocks, but i agree with your comment that some of mbt's best work is not heard by the masses.

VERY COOL, ROB!

Thanks for posting--and thanks to you and the guys for the song!! It's GREAT! Can't wait to hear the rest!!

Hey SLU...

No need to apologize for your opinion... in my opinion anyway. I understand what you mean about not feeling it. I like the idea of the song... but not necessarily the producing. Now generally I like the music that Steve Lillywhite produces but with this particular song it seems he veered to the pop side of things and left the rock mostly out of it. I do want to say though that I love the drums in the intro and the bridge is cooler than cool... and I also find the syncopated rhythm intoxicatingly addictive (though I wish the tempo was abit slower).

So… I love parts of it but as a whole… not so much. I look forward to seeing where the guys take it live. I suspect we will find it a lot easier to “feel” then.

I couldn't agree more. Very nicely put!

Thanks for keeping us up to date Rob.

Love the new song

Can't wait to hear ( and see) Pookie sing.

LONG LIVE MATCHBOX! I have already emailed my favourite radio station and requested How Far We've Come. So far they have not. But I will not give up.

OMG!

I love you Rob!!!! I can't believe i'm listen to a new song from you guys after so long!! It's so touching

I LOVE IT! It's awesome!

CAN'T WAIT TO HEAR THE OTHER ONES!

(man, now the waiting will kill me LOl)

Thank you Rob, YOU ROCK, rock, rock, rock! =)

LONG LIVE MATCHBOX!!!!!

Thanks for posting Rob

I love the new song. It's different but I like it.

the record will have 6 new songs on it. i'll admit that it was a direct response from coming on here and hearing how dissapointed you were with waiting so long and only getting one new song

It's nice to hear from you that you read the boards and listen to your fans.

Glad to hear that you and the guys had fun making the album.

It's great to have Matchbox back

That's one up on me! I only know of one (in L.A. of all places) station in my area that plays MB20's/Rob's music religiously but I've boycotted that station.

Fortunately, there were plenty of nice peeps here that posted the link to the interview/song from various stations so I just come here and click and repeat, click and repeat, click...well, you get it.

Okay this is gonna ramble

Thanks for stopping by Rob
That is just more proof that you and the beautiful matchsticks are AWESOME people (among many other brilliant traits...)

I'm liking the new track alot, it's by no means my favourite Matchbox song but it is CATCHY as hell and totally makes me wanna shake my ass!
And any new Matchbox is good Matchbox of course
But I cannot wait for the rest of the tunes to be out in October!!! ( Can you bring the date forward just a little??? (Pretty Please???)

Okay love ya lots babe (and all the other matchstick babes )
(((Hugs to everyone)))
