First of all, this song really creates a sense of musicality combined with a lot of emotion added in. As a musician, I hear all of the little intertwining musical parts, and I wonder how a band could do such an amazing job at creating a song. Let’s go through the instruments:
Acoustic Guitar
Drums
Bass
Saxophone
Electric Guitar
Vocals
All in all, the Dave Matthews Band did an amazing job creating this song. It is worth a good listen. The song’s feel goes from an emotional romance at the beginning to having a little bit of a depressive kind of feel, but that is also reflected in the words of the song. Matching the words with the feel is part of what makes great songs.
