Thanks for doing my song guys!! It just seemed like a song you guys could appreciate.

Anyone who listened to this and is not moved, well I feel sorry for them. Dave captured a raw soul stripped down, layed bare. Their guitars and his voice send you there. Moves me to tears every time I hear it. Simply amazing.

Still has a huge following!!! I’ve seen Dave live 62 times

Ive been seeing Dave every summer since 99. Amazing live band & Dave, in my opinion, is one of the best song writers of the past 30 years

DMB has some of the best musical arrangements youll ever hear.

This one is a direct hit to the heart.

Probably the most under appreciated albums of all time. The entire album is a spiritual experience, not even in a religious kind of way. They like transport you into a different realm or something. The feelings I have when I listen to the two of them together is unlike any other music or artists in the business. They are truly one of a kind. When people think of Dave they immediately think of DMB, when in reality it is almost a completely different genre than when it’s just Dave and Tim. I don’t even like DMB, but Dave and Tim hold a special piece of my heart. I wish you’d guys do a reaction to “The Maker” “Some Devil” or “Sister”. You’ll have the same reaction. Constant chills

One of the greatest live performers out there.

This is the right way to do a music review/reaction. Sit through it without interrupting and THEN talk about it.

Dave Matthews band is the most incredible live band on the planet. For anyone who doesn't get it see them live. Trust me you will be blown away. And you will get it.

I saw this and as a DMB fan, urge you both to go to a DMB show. The energy, Dave’s voice, and the music genius from every member of the band will leave you in awe, I guarantee it. Oh, the fans are loving in the best ways.

Appreciate you reacting to this song. However you interpret it, it's a powerful song, this being the best version of it. And it's 16 years old. I've watched it many, many times. Each time I get goosebumps watching Dave walk out and scan the entire room over and over. It's like he's in awe of where he is. And interestingly, he was a bartender as he established this band. 10/10.

Great reaction. Huge DMB fan, i have seen them live 50+ times. Experiencing your reaction made me get emotional myself, and I heard this performance countless times. Thank you!

There is a duality to the song, Dave battled alcoholism, and the references also reminiscent of someone begging to get over an addiction alongside the religious imagery. "The wine that is drinking me' seems very much an alcoholism reference. But that isn't just what it is about, he's really talking about his whole life.

Been a Dave fan the day I heard them 15 years ago. As a drummer, it's hard NOT to gravitate towards DMB. But Radio City.. This performance is SPECIAL. I cannot count how many times I've watched this whole show top to bottom.

Omg!! Havent listened to them in ages. I am crying. This is so beautiful. Thank u for this.

Tim is one of the most underrated guitar players ever.

So glad to see you both getting into the beauty of Dave Matthews' music. Hope to see you at a show sometime, feeling his music in a live setting has been the most powerful live events I have gotten the privilege to witness. Every show is a different experience and their musical talent is unparalleled

DMB shows are a blast. Fun and uplifting.

Dude this makes me emotional everytime I hear it. Glad you felt it.

Dave Matthews Band -The Last Stop (Live In Chicago '98)

Dave's lyrics speak to your soul.

One of the BEST performances I've EVER seen. Bar none. This track....and "Don't drink the Water" are simply magical musical moments. What an incredible performance.

I was at this show.. it was beyond amazing.. if you want to see what the entire band can do, check out All Along The Watchtower from Central Park.. I was there as well.. 120k people in the middle of Manhattan.. it was soul changing.. it’s a bit of a king some but I promise it’s worth it. Your jaws will be on the floor. Bible.

This one of my favorites. “The wine is drinking me” talking about the gold that is causing his problems in the world.

You gotta do the dave matthews band - All Along The Watchtower (live at Central Park Concert ). These guys live are amazing!!

Hoping this makes you guys fans! Thank you for appreciating Dave and Tim!

had, saw, you're talking about Dave in the past tense... He and the DMB are most defineitly still touring and making EXCELLENT music.

As a teen in the 90s, my parents introduced me to the Dave Matthews Band by dragging me to a show. I was an untrustworthy middle schooler and couldn't be left home alone, lets just say that. The show changed my life. It was so ridiculously hot that day I nearly passed out from dehydration but besides that, I found something that day that changed my life. Much like people do with God. Im atheist, but you could say that the music, the lyrics, the story behind Dave's life, everything that this band has been about has opened my mind, my world, to different kinds of music, people, ways of life, cultures. They sparked a deep interest learning about black history here as well as in Africa and learning about apartheid. It introduced me to the idea of venturing out of comfort zones and drenching myself in diversity. I have to admit that I judged you when I first started watching the video. As the song progressed, as did my thoughts. Im atheist, Im liberal, Im not patriotic, I had so many excuses to judge you....but listening to this band has taught me to remain open, and loving, and always willing to learn. Thank you for opening your hearts and minds to this song, Im trying my best to hold judgement of others and keep my heart and mind open to things I typically reject or judge. I hope you both get to see the band live some day. What is a song you would ask me to listen to to learn about you?

No one talks about the harmonizing intro and outro... the i to is like that of pain, uncertainty, discomfort.... and the outro is like an ascension. Very final

They are amazing live!

Saw DMB play this live at Alpine Valley, WI. Amazing

Just let it play. Nothing less. Well played, sir's.

Brian’s mesmerized. Like the rest of the Warehouse

Just in case it's not mentioned in any other comments below, I hope you know that this performance is from a double Blu ray DVD titled Dave Mathews & Tim Reynolds Live from Radio City Music Hall. This DVD was/is considered to be one of the best recordings (highest fidelity) ever produced. As you stated, listening on headphones really let's the audio shine. I hope you get a chance to watch the entire performance sometime with headphones or a really good sound system. I actually own a copy but I have no idea where it is and I haven't watched it in years, but as I recall it's quite long, possibly 4 hours even? Anyway, there are sure to be other cuts that you will also love. In my opinion, Dave Matthew's & Tim Reynolds as a duo are better than they are together in the Dave Matthew's Band. Check it out & see if you agree. Thanks for posting this.

I love how he takes me into it with the strength of a dream, brings me back down to earth with the lyrics and then takes me out of it like I’ve been set free. I think the wine means give me life and purpose.

I've seen Dave and Tim several times...Bartender always brings tears to my eyes...so soulful...no discussion...no words...just the total emotion and message...Dave and Tim on the beach in Cancun has been epic for wife and I.....you should check it out for next yr...not cheap .. but life changing experience for sure...btw....drinks included. Lol.

Another great track is Gravedigger. Really makes you thing about how fleeting life is for all of us.

My brothers. Beautiful reaction. I just subbed to your channel and look forward to see your other videos. Thank you for the honest and raw reaction.

Another great video and Dave Mathews is a great and talented musician.

I’ve seen these guys several times over the years. Many Memorial Day weekends he would perform over the weekend at the Gorge Amphitheater in George, Wa. Awesome show every time. ❤❤❤

Two of the most talented people on earth on that stage!

Moved to tear always by this one of a kind musical moment

Great reaction. I love this song. Dave was also once a bartender. Look forward to seeing more stuff

The 3 times denial was Peter (whom the church was built on)...but the judas reference is of not denial, but betrayal over monetary worth. Very cool reaction, and 💯, I've heard this song so many times, but never under this pretense. Hope you do another dave with his full band LIVE🙏

Just subscribed. Great to see two guys react, let the music play, and lay some great original takes and analysis great job. Cant wait to see what else you guys do

Tim Reynolds is small in stature But a Giant on Guitar ❤

What makes this even more interesting is that Dave is not a very religious person and doesn’t know if there’s a god or not but he still wrote this song.

My heart explodes!!!!!❤

I like your guys analysis of this Dave Matthew's song. A song I'd like to see you review is Stevie Ray Vaughan's last Austin city limits concert where he plays Tight Rope. SRV just smokes on this song.

Masterpiece Song

Outstanding breakdown... I've loved this song since it dropped yet haven't heard a reaction like this ever. Grateful the algorithm brought me to you. RECOMMENDATION: "Maze" by Candlebox (new and grossly underrated track from their latest [last?] album.

love love love

Not religious at all, but I love this song, this performance, and you guys. Love y'all.

Ok gentlemen… a musical turn-on for you. Check out Mike Love. Specifically : Penniless, and Permanent Holiday. For Brian the musical geek, his guitar skills will blow you away, for Cedric, this dude is pure rasta, and his lyrics, well, you just check him out, eh?🤙🏻

Another great reaction to a song which I had not heard. Also, I sent a Venmo request for a song. I’d never used Venmo before so I hope I did it correctly and for enough money. The request was for Dear Dad by Austin Forman.

I had two friends saw him24 times. I saw him8 times in 4 years.

Love the song & reaction. I have to ask. Are the 2 of you former military?

It’s Tinsley

Love me some Dave

I thought he’s in heaven asking for another chance, to resurrect - looking to go back.

if my memory is correct, pretty sure he was raised Quaker.

I was tricked I just saw the title Bartender.I thought it was the song Bartender by Danny Boone from Rehab.I did enjoy the song

Tim’s a great guitar player

Alright, I'm a mega Dave Matthews Band fan, and I don't think the bartender represents God, but rather it could be any bartender. It's the drink. Dave now has one brother, one sister, and mother only now after his father died from lung cancer when Dave was 10, and his eldest sister (Anne) was murdered by her husband. First verse is to his brother (Peter) to not forget him and hold his memory dear even with his faults even if he dies before he is an old man. Second verse, is to his Sister (Jane) to not be angry at him if he dies at a younger age then he should have. Last verse is to his mum (Val) that if all of his success and wealth leads him down the wrong path, kick him in the pants and press the reset button on his soul. The easiest way to not think such heavy thoughts is to just go have some drinks, but it doesn't last.

If you want live emotion, Tedeschi Trucks is the only answer.

If you want to nerd out, check out Tim Reynolds!!

Dave Mathews Band was SOOO much more than “a 90s band”. They’ve been selling out venues for over 30 years! I saw them for the eighth time, just last summer, and they’re still demanding ticket prices that modern day bands simply cannot demand. You guys have grey hair. I’d think you would know better 🤷‍♂️

I would love to know if yall have seen the band live yet?!

Bartender isn't even a top 5 performance of this show. The version of Bartender from 2002 live at folsom field in Colorado is way better and the whole band played.

Folsom Field (whole band) is still the best version in my opinion.

Tim's using a slide with effect pedal ✌️

christmas song

I think the rooster crowing is Peter betraying him and not Judas.

Do some research dude Tim is a legend a god and he needs respect if your going to play Dave and Tim just saying from devoted fan

I’m not sure if anyone said it, or I missed it. But no one says anything about Dave being so vocal about not believing in god.

Tom Reynolds wanna the best to ever do it

He lost his sister in the par tide in Africa.

The denial with the 3 rooster crows was Peter not Judas. Just FYI.

Wish I could have heard those lyrics over the music, I would have liked the analogy.

Hello bro, plis review: You Don't Own Me- Tamino. Everybody Knows- Sigrid. The First Discipline- Tamino. Plis plis bros ❤❤😊

That's just one song you cant listen and not just stare at the screen. Even the religious part just makes you understand people of religion, i hope.

Do people still believe in the fairy’s in the sky hilarious

Cringe…. As fuck why so much production for Dave Mathew’s?? That being said I’m a fan. This is weird guys. 🤨

Not a fan of the music or vocals, screaming, not singing.
