Rob Thomas - 3AM (Acoustic) | Live On Kennedy Molloy! | Triple M 

He's singing about his Mom. Gives me chills.

Rob Thomas is severely underrated.

How many times would Rob have sung this song? He still gives it everything. Much respect.

Don’t care what anyone’s says this version is far better then the pop version. ❤

This guy has serious vocal/song writing skills,

This guy wrote some beautiful songs, as I get older I respect and appreciate him all that much more

I love Rob , I’m always listening to his songs , since I was 21 and now I’m 40

Dude doesn't age! I remember watching the video of this on VH1 countdown every stinking afternoon of 1998. Got a haircut but that's it. Good for him.

A classic American song that defined the late nineties.

His guitarist is just amazing… beautifully crafted fills… complimented the vocal, just magic

Matchbox 20 was the first CD i ever had..Everytime i hear this song waves of memories come crashing in

This is about his mom when she had cancer when he was 12 or 13. Didnt write it then but wrote it for then. Always thought it was about a ex GF. Great song. Its best in this acoustic version

One of the first songs that truly helped me through a lot of hard times. Love every song he ever sang but back then this one did it for me. He puts his heart & soul in all his songs, such a great singer and songwriter with beautiful lyrics. Always #1 in my heart & still going strong today as great as the 90’s, I swear he only gets better with age ! 🎶❤️🎶

I love how syllabic the hooks are yet they work so well with Rob's blues voice.

Man, that song seems to still hit Rob as emotionally as the rest of us. What a song, incredible.

This is the best rendition of this song I’ve ever heard. It’s much more complex here, more soulful.

Year 2121 and we’re still listening to this friggin legend !!! Absolute voice of a god !

Nobody compares to Rob

One of my few favorite vocalists. He just seems so relaxed and comfortable.

The fact that this song is written about his mom when he was 12/13 when she was going through cancer is difficult to not be emotional.

Always loved this song but this version is now my favorite.

I had chills listening to this on the radio today. What an amazing musician

The best version of this song I've ever heard. Man is a legend.

Rob is amazingly talented. I love listening to him play and sing

Brilliant version of a brilliant song! Everything sounds better when it’s acoustic...

This BAND....and Rob's voice....as a listener and fan, everything aligned on that entire album with the music, lyrics and vocals....nothing else like it...

God I love him.

Here's a true musician/singer/composer!

A rare good acoustic song. I was expecting to be disappointed. This was quite pleasant to listen to.

..each time he sings...its like hearing it for the first time..aways special, always from the heart.💝❤❤

That little guitar riff before/during the chorus reminds me so much of Bob Marley's "No Woman No Cry"... It can't be a coincidence.

🥀WOW This is one of the best I've heard Rob Thomas singing this song it's so beautiful and I could feel his pain of the loss of his Mother🥀☝️🥀🕊🥀

Did anyone else notice that the backup guitar player was playing a guitar left handed that was strung right handed.

Don't overlook the dude accompanying on 2nd guitar. Super sweet

I will never tire of this song.

I don’t know which I like more. This or the storytellers piano version.

Your guitarist is wonderful, amazing talent.....so far away.....iowa. where is Iowa you say? Yup in the middle of the USA.......Hearts, love the guy with the guitar

This needs more love. He's a good solid dude

Rob Thomas is my all time favorite, most talented, inspiring, beautiful, loving and caring real man in the world!!!If he only knew how much he has helped me with my heartache and I can't thank him enough love u bunches xo xo xo

Great song. Great vocals. Freakin sweet guitar 👍

One of my all time favourite songs! Great version!

Their Bright Lights live rendition is my favorite musical performance ever!

This song and push makes more sense the older I get

The two ppl that disliked this don’t have a soul

Matt Beck never gets enough credit for his beautiful accompaniment.

IF AN ARTIST CAN DO AN ACOUSTIC VERSION OF ANY OF THEIR SONGS..... 100% OF THE TIME ,IT'S BETTER THAN THE STUDIO VERSION...... OUTSTANDING YOU MAN.!!!!!

Gave this a play today with a grumpy sick baby, what do you know she's calm and watching quietly

Love this. Their all my favorites

Kudos to the guitarist. Playing a right handed guitar left handedly.

I still listen to this song late at night 😊

The hitting of the notes! Well impressed.

Awesome singer. Just wow. Bravo

Took care of my mom with cancer and it won april 14, 2005. Was that a wink he put in there? Cute😉!

Such an emotional song. I LOVE it.

Thank you for uploading! Loved it!

Beautiful music, heartfelt writing and the singing... powerful emotions

Outstanding!!!!!

Well that was very emotional.. He put everything he had into that!.. I dont usually like sappy love songs or sad story type songs.. But I must admit I enjoyed this.. It was calming/ nice & beautiful.. I couldn't help but play it til the end.. Well done

This CD was in a listening station at tower records. I was into rap and metal and the guy on the front of the cd looked goofy but it was 6.99. I brought it home and played it for my roommate and he was like “oh these guys are going to be big. It was maybe 6-8 months later and they were on mtv and every radio station lol.

Beautiful💕

This song takes me back

Great performance

To my late awesome mother in law Janice Marie Solley. I miss you and John. K.❤

One of most beautiful song.

I love Rob!!!

Ok Rob is amazing…let’s just set that aside for a second. Is no one going to talk about his guitarist playing the guitar upside down?! I’m sure he’s left handed but those strings are on wrong…and it sounds amazing!

❤️🔥❤️

🎸 💗

my mom is my dad because she did everything for me.

I wish i could sing. I sound worse than dropping a tool box down the stairs.

suggested at 3AM, noice

I found out that this song is about his mom before she died. Never knew that. This song puts a different perspective on it

Wow

I think this version is better than the original. More emotional.

christmas 2022, thanks

so.... what if i was told another beautifully tragic reason this song exists. .....Taylor i wish id met you. id said the same thing ❤

She said, "It's cold outside, " and she hands me my raincoat She's always worried about things like that Well, she said, "It's all gonna end and it might as well be my fault" And she only sleeps when it's raining And she screams, and her voice is straining She says, "Baby, it's 3 AM, I must be lonely" And she says, "Baby, well, I can't help But be scared of it all sometimes And the rain's gonna wash away, I believe it" Well, she's got a little bit of something, God, it's better than nothing And in her color portrait world, she believes that she's got it all She swears the moon don't hang quite as high as it used to And she only sleeps when it's raining And she screams (screams) and her voice is straining She says, "Baby, well, it's 3 AM, I must be lonely" Well, heaven she says, "Baby, yeah, well, I can't help But be scared of it all sometimes And the rain's gonna wash away, I believe this" Well, she believes that life isn't made up of all that you're used to And the clock on the wall has been stuck at 3 for days and days She thinks that happiness is a mat that sits on her doorway But outside, it's stopped raining She says, "Baby, well, it's 3 AM, I must be lonely" Heaven, she says, "Baby, yeah, well, I can't help But be scared of it all sometimes And the rain's gonna wash away, I believe this" Well, it's 3 AM, I must be lonely (I must be lonely) Well, heaven, she says, "Baby, well, I can't help But be scared of it all sometimes"

😘😘😘😘
