放了這麼一些歌，卻沒有放matchbox20的歌會有點奇怪，
畢竟我給予他很高的評價，也讓我為它風靡一陣子。
這個團體的組成，有點故事，
主唱是德國出生的，年輕時逃離家裡往美國東南部流浪，
那年他才17歲，高中還沒有讀完，生活只有音樂跟創作。
當時在當地的樂團中靠著他性感的嗓音四處表演，
順帶一提，他曾經獲選為全美聲音最性感的男人，不過那是之後的事了，
之後他在奧蘭多遇到鼓手，然後接連在各地遇到其他的團員。
事實上，他們樂團沒有成麗多久就跟唱片公司簽約，
也順利的在隔年發專輯，專輯也得到熱烈的迴響，
199˙年被滾石評比為最佳新人團體，
接著就是巡迴演唱，一切都很平順，計畫著之後進軍歐洲。
如果每一首歌和專輯都有買，
不難感覺到他們每個階段的成長，
不管是曲子的嘗試和變化以及演奏的扎實等等，
從青澀的少年轉成熟的男人，
曾經有一小段時間他們各自朝自己的目標發展，
好像是解散，卻是各自提升、休息以及重新思考出發，
(聽說各自都在不同領域都有很大的發展)
後來又出了一張專輯，這張我有買...More than you think you are(2002)
卻被我搞丟了...
雖然不是增加很多新元素，像其他樂團加了饒舌加了電子或刷盤等，
(並不是說加了那些元素不好，大家都不一樣的風格)
matchbox20決定，吉他是吉他，貝斯是貝斯，回歸原本因此風格更明顯了。
不知道為什麼在台灣算是小眾市場，
以下這首歌有得過獎喔!!!
Unwell
All day staring at the ceiling
Making friends with shadows on my wall
All night hearing voices telling me
That I should get some sleep
Because tomorrow might be good for something
Hold on
Feeling like I'm headed for a breakdown
And I don't know why
[Chorus]
But I'm not crazy, I'm just a little unwell
I know right now you can't tell
But stay awhile and maybe then you'll see
A different side of me
I'm not crazy, I'm just a little impaired
I know right now you don't care
But soon enough you're gonna think of me
And how I used to be...me
I'm talking to myself in public
Dodging glances on the train
And I know, I know they've all been talking about me
I can hear them whisper
And it makes me think there must be something wrong with me
Out of all the hours thinking
Somehow I've lost my mind
[Chorus]
But I'm not crazy, I'm just a little unwell
I know right now you can't tell
But stay awhile and maybe then you'll see
A different side of me
I'm not crazy, I'm just a little impaired
I know right now you don't care
But soon enough you're gonna think of me
And how I used to be
I've been talking in my sleep
Pretty soon they'll come to get me
Yeah, they're taking me away
[Chorus]
But I'm not crazy, I'm just a little unwell
I know right now you can't tell
But stay awhile and maybe then you'll see
A different side of me
I'm not crazy, I'm just a little impaired
I know right now you don't care
But soon enough you're gonna think of me
And how I used to be
Yeah, how I used to be
How I used to be
Well, I'm just a little unwell
How I used to be
How I used to be
I'm just a little unwell
