The sound of Southern rock gets a facelift for the '90s on Yourself or Someone Like You, the record that made Florida's Matchbox 20 a success story. Rob Thomas's charismatic and passionate vocal delivery carries this collection of captivating, personal-story songs, based on honest, heart-felt lyrics rich with cathartic emotion. Anyone who's felt so scarred by love that they can't imagine taking the chance of getting hurt again will relate to a song like "Push" (an exhilarating feminist anthem disguised as just another relationship-on-the-rocks song). A much-needed break from the alternative pack. --Gail Worley

Summary: Great intro to MB20
Comment: Its the cd that got me into the band in the first place. It was given to me and i had never heard of them before that. I had heard "3 AM" before and enjoyed that but hadnt heard anything else of them before that. Each song brings out a different aspect of the band and led by excellent vocals by Rob Thomas and everything else by the band itself. Also has a knack for writing some pre tty good songs as well. Like "Push", "Back 2 Good" and "Girl Like That"
MB20's debut wasn't like the average run of the mill band. I still enjoy listening to it to this day and recently had to buy because the original cd got misplaced. I didnt mind though with a cd like "Yourself or Someone Like You". It bears repeating and many listens regardless.

Summary: Back to Good
Comment: Great Album. I was dating my current wife in late 1997 when she surprised me with a private table dance in my living room. Needless to say, that song was played at our wedding and to this day holds a memory that I will never forget close to my heart and somewhere....

Summary: Transformative and Moving
Comment: My musical tastes are quite eclectic to say the least. I move from Bach to Rock and all places in between as long as its quality. However, whenever I listen to "back 2 good", I feel like I am actually transported into the body of a person who has deep pain and sorrow. This song continues to have an effect on me over 10 years later from the first time I heard it. Most of the other songs are great for the unusual mix of depth and pop appeal. This album is highly recommended!
