How could I have been anyone other than me?
Dave Matthews

I don't touch electric guitars. It's just not my thing - I stick with acoustic guitars only.

Look, Here are we, On this starry night staring into space, And I must say, I feel as small as dust, Lying down here...
Dave Matthews
Image
Lying on the roof counting the stars that fill the sky I wonder if Someone in the heavens looking back down on me I'll never know So much space to believe
Dave Matthews
Image
I see you young and soft oh little baby Little feet, little hands, little baby One year of crying and the words creep up inside Creep into your mind So much to say
Dave Matthews

I've always been obsessed by visual art as I have been by music personally, but that doesn't mean anything professionally.
Dave Matthews

In so many areas of life, I'm a spaz and incompetent.
Dave Matthews

Being able to scream at the top of my lungs in front of people is very therapeutic. It is a great gift for me to be able to do that.

I've never been much of a craftsman, in an educated way. But I think just the experience of writing makes the avenues I follow a little more efficient in some ways. At the same time, when you're young, you're a little more fearless, and there's less of an internal critic.

I think some people would say that I do overwhelm the words with the music, and sometimes thank goodness I do.
Dave Matthews
Image
I'm a fairly tormented artist, and I'm less willing to indulge myself in self-pity, outside of songwriting.
Dave Matthews
Image
Just knowing that the world is round Here I'm dancing on the ground Am I right side up or upside down? Is this real or am I dreaming?
Dave Matthews
Image
We have to do much more than believe if we really want to change things.
Dave Matthews

Everything good needs replacing

Are you looking for answers, to questions under the stars? If along the way you are growing weary, You can rest with me until a brighter day It's okay
Dave Matthews
Image
Would you like to play With the thought of a friend In a distant passing stage While you lie around With your hands up and out So resigned you will fall down.

A vote for change is a vote for a stronger, safer, healthier America. A vote for Bush is a vote for a divided, unstable, paranoid America. It is our duty to this beautiful land to let our voices be heard. That's the reason for the tour. That's why I'm doing it.

For me, in songwriting, I have a route I can take. Maybe there's some forks, I can go this way, this way. But I know those roads. I still have the experience behind me.

My songs are like a three-legged dog - you have to get to know them to have any love for them.

The idea of God as a fatherly figure who looks down on us and worries about how we're doing or takes sides when we have fights - it's more irritating than Santa Claus. The world and the universe are far more wonderful if there's not a puppet master.
