Bit of a legend huh? Not too shabby with the guitar either......

I voted for "Why Don't You & I", with "Maria Maria" close behind.

I voted for Game of Love. It was one of my favfe tracks of last year. But Maria Maria was a VERY close second. Hes is a ledgend and hes coming here next month!

Close call between Smooth and The Game Of Love, but TGOL got my vote in the end.

I like Maria Maria, but I thought it wasn't on the poll so I voted for Smooth. Can someone vote for Maria Maria please :cry:

by **BronxBadBoi** » Tue Feb 18, 2003 6:55 pm

I voted for Maria Maria because I really don't like the others. The others are too pop/rockish for me. Maria Maria was the joint when it came out. :wink:

Definetly Smooth

not that i'm biased being a Matchbox 20 fan :wink:

followed by 'The Game of Love'

Smooth followed by Maria Maria

Yep!! (my new favorite word..oh lord) I loved Maria Maria. I thought those guys were gonna be huge after that :-?

Smooth and Game Of Love were great too though.

by **BadRapture** » Tue Feb 18, 2003 11:57 pm

It's a close call with all the votes.....Smooth just out on top at the moment. Btw, I voted for the Chad Kroeger feature, it's just that little bit rockier than the rest.

I'm going for Smoooooth...luv it! I also love the one w/Musiq (err, the name of the song escapes me at the moment) Those are all great tho, huh. Wow!

by **turnip** » Wed Feb 19, 2003 5:53 am

'Game Of Love'....'Smooth'....'Maria Maria'. How can you expect me to choose?! I love them all!
^^ btw Lili- the song is 'Nothing At All' (another great one!)

"Smooth" - that song is pure class 8-)

Didn't he have another hit with the Product G&B, called "Dirty Dancing"?

by **Muzikritik** » Thu Feb 20, 2003 4:09 am

I liked "Game Of Love" and loved "Maria Maria" but for me, it's gotta be "Smooth". It's allllll class!!

A lot of folks like that smooth song. The guy who from matchbox 20 has an annoying voice. But anyway Santana is great.

lol I don't like the guy's voice either but somehow I love Smooth (and Matchbox 20's song Disease too, hmm)

I like how everyone loves Santana

Oooh - they're all good. I'm not voting just yet...

Out of the ones I've heard, I'd say either "Put Your Lights On" or "Maria Maria". However, when I hear the new one with Chad Kroeger on vocals - that might sway me. I think it'll be a massive hit. Why? Because Chad is Rock's most successful one hit wonder

He's had one hit as frontman of Nickelback (and the others were a lot smaller)
He's had one hit fronting a supergroup
Me thinks he can get one hit as a featured artist
Sadly he failed to have one hit as a producer with Default, but that could still be to come.

Yeah, that could be still to come as he has co-wrote a few songs on the Default album - which by the way is good

I think Smooth definately but I've heard that his duet with Dido is great,something to do with fire.

by **angeldust** » Sun Feb 23, 2003 6:00 pm

I voted for 'maria maria'cause I really like the song but unfortunately "smooth" was most voted. I like "smooth" but in my opinion "maria maria" is a much better catchy song.

I really liked "Wasting My Time" by Default!!

Anywayz I don't find Rob Thomas' voice annoying at all! I think it's very distinctive and datz good cos whenever you hear him on the radio, you know it's Matchbox 20.

Rob Thomas's voice doesn't annoy me, but I'm biased.

I think Smooth is the best of those, but then I would, as I said just now, I'm biased. It's one of those songs which just reminds me of happy times, it's a generally happy song for me. Happy songs are great. Yeah, I'm just going to sit hear babbling incessantly about how happy songs rule until somebody tells me to shut up... So where was I? Ah yes, happy songs... [shut up Alli] Ok.

Yeah, same here. You see i first heard the song on the Kerrang music channel, i bought it went it came out and played it none stop

so the next time i was up in Glasgow i bought their album and i love it

I don't find Rob Thomas's voice annoying either as you said its distinctive and im happy that their album 'More Than You Think You Are' will be making the top 40 album chart

Shame Disease missed out in the top 40 though :cry:
