Great reaction, with the exception that Rob Thomas and Matchbox 20 were "unknown" prior to this single being released. They were huge, with several platinum albums in the late 90s, and Rob Thomas was quite well-established as a singer and songwriter. I thought this collaboration with Carlos Santana was Rob Thomas' crowning achievement though!
Yeah, they were already huge! They’d only released one album up to this point, though
Seconding this. Rob Thomas and Matchbox 20 were already huge. Look at the chart history of their debut album "Yourself or Someone Like You". Push, 3am, Long Day, Real World, etc. They even had their own controversy regarding the lyrics to Push.
"Yourself or someone like you" was an absolute GEM of an album ... every song is fantastic!
This is one of my all-time favorite songs. Rob's voice goes so well with Santana's style that it's intoxicating
This music was a little before I was around so you very lucky and fortunate to hear it fresh. Seems Lake Rob Thomas was at the top of his song writing game around 3 to 4 years In a row give or take. Carlos Santana wanted Rob Thomas to write the lyrics. He never had any intention for Rob Thomas to be the vocalist. Carlos Said he was thinking of so one more like a George Michael type voice for the track. Rob Thomas asked Carlos to just listen Give him a chance and just listen. I thought there was a cool story and a cool interview were Carlos talked on This. At the end of the day Rob Thomas was only supposed to write the lyrics but Carlos Never planned on Thomas Singing this track. At matching this to a few people and showed them a couple interviews where Carlos mentions this. Most people find it hard to even comprehend anyone Doing the vocals other than Rob Thomas. People can't even imagine a George Michael or that type of caliber singer doin this track
@@choice12ozborne the summer this dropped the entire world was listening to it lol literally all people from all demos had this banging in the car….this were the days
Ahhhh. Carlos Santana has that signature sound. You’ll always know it’s him playing the guitar. ❤️❤️
Hey! Check out my latest reaction of Faith Hill and Carlos Santana: ruclips.net/video/nZR6Htqd0RU/видео.html
Besides Carlos' amazing playing; Rob's pronunciation style (?) is what makes this song unique and great!!
What I love is that it flows throughout. Never misses a beat. Perfect rythym. Smooth is the perfect name for it.
Matchbox 20 were huge in the States before this came out. Yourself or Someone like you hit no 5 in the US Billboard chart.
So I'm not the only one remembering it differently ;) They were pretty well established here in Germany as well
In 1997/98 you couldn't turn on the radio or MTV without hearing Matchbox20 every 15 minutes. They had like 5 songs popular at the same time. Those first 2 albums were really good and they still hold up. I played "Yourself or someone like you" album again recently and there's not a bad track on it.
Yeah, that's pretty much the same for here in New Zealand. They were already a well established band before this song came out.
Yes, I worked at a music store at the time, they were huge, that's why he was on this album.
Same
In the original video, the woman dancing in front of Carlos was Rob's wife :)
You mean the film clip?
The girl in the blue top, not the white top one.
Is...
It's been said that Carlos learned his signature style as a 17 year old playing music in the brothels of Tijuana Mexico.
@Art Thanks for the additional info.
What an ignorant comment about hooker's and donkeys, Tijuana is so much more, your comments say more of you than anything else., Sad comment.
@Naturally Art wayittattune
@@marcomoncada352 Okay? And? Las Vegas has some of the biggest casinos in the world. Doesn't stop it from having prostitutes and hookers.
What an ignorant comment from you, your comment says much more about you than other people.
Rob Thomas is such a great singer. I went to his concert two months ago in Arizona and he's also one of the most down to earth artists out there he stayed for a long time after the show taking pictures with the fans, also he sounds exactly as the record. Btw, he's coming back with matchbox twenty next year. 😊
Awesome ☺
I hope God listens to you. We need more hit singles from people that can sing without auto-tune and dramatic stage effects.
@reconz 82299 I'd love to hear her reaction to "Downfall". Rob is bodacious singing that song.
This song will never go out of style. The video will be watched for ages....its well....smooth
Rob Thomas and Matchbox 20 was huge before this song came out -- very well known and famous -- lots of hits
Great song... one of my fave combo's of Carlos.
Carlos and Michelle Branch (one of the handful of singers with perfect pitch) singing the Game of Love is a great reaction video.
Amazingly after a long and storied career working with Rob gave Carlos his first #1 record.
One of my favorite songs of all time. Rob makes it interesting and sexy. Never would have imagined him singing a latin flavored song, but it was fate.
Matchbox had a multi platinum album and several top 40 hits with their debut album.
So pretty unfair to say he was unknown:
BUT it is fair to say that this song didn’t let people forget about Rob and his band. So it was a great lead into the release of their second album
This was also the first song that Rob wrote that wasn’t for Matchbox. He had people lined up to write with him after this
That being said... I do love that you take the time to research some of the things you review ahead of time and get peoples influences
Good luck with the move back to Scotland
What a great song, you're right, it's one of those timeless tracks that reaches across genres.
Beth, I hope you don't mind, but I watch your videos mainly to listen to your accent. It's very soothing and calming. Your voice analysis is very interesting too, though I don't sing lol. You're the best vocal analyzer in the business!
What he said !
That and her bubbly personality.
Least we forgot the red hair
Let's just say it... She's beautiful!
@@jeffreymorris5815 agreed
I absolutely love Rob Thomas' style
I like Mana and Santana in “Corazón Espinado".
One of my faves! Carlos playing guitar w/ Rob Thomas singing is the perfect match.
I saw Matchbox 20 in 1996 on their first tour and was I think everyone was surprised at just how good they were.
I saw Matchbox20 in 1996 too in Greenville, SC and was blown away. Small venue, maybe 300 people max. Wasn't even a fan then, just went with a girl on a date. Then a few months later they had like 5 songs on the radio at the same time. Still one of best concerts I ever saw.
I've seen MB20 and Rob Thomas solo many times. They are an amazing live band. Instrumentation and vocals. And Rob is quite funny.
Yes!!!! Rob Thomas 😍😍
He is yummy💟
I know nothing about singing, but watching your videos gives me a much deeper appreciation for songs I already love. I also get to find some gems I had not heard before. I love it. Keep up the awesome work!
Such an awesome, Awesome, song...sheer brilliance!!
Oh yeah!!! The whole Supernatural Record was a master piece thanks you Beth another Mexican legend and Rob Just the cherry on the top 🙏
You have to watch the video of them doing this in a street in Spanish Harlem, where the neighborhood comes out and jams and dances in the street with them 💙💙🎶
Wow! Thank you, Beth, for this one. You are amazing and this song always gives me the chills.
No matchbox 20 was big in the US 2 or 3 yrs before this. Maybe big where you live after this.
Guy is magical - saw him with Matchbox 20 in a bar way before they “hit” and his mom busted us and a friend of mine smoking a joint outside of the bar.
Yeah! I have memories too... With just one second you can realize is Santana plying, a sound so bright, happy and deep at the same time. Greetings from the other side of the world.
Carlos is the bomb! and this song is great. So fun that you reacted to this,
This song and Rob Thomas are incredible. If you haven't seen or heard it before you should react to Rob Thomas and Daryl Hall singing I Heard It Through The Grapevine
The very best of all the reaction vids of this song.
A Saturday upload from Beth is amazing.
This song is perfect...sexy and emotional. And in general lets just say that both rob and carlos are both profound collaborators.
Uh yeah...no. Matchbox Twenty was huge in the US way before this song came out.
agreed completely, i don't know where shes getting her information but she is wrong on that one.
That's what I thought!
From wiki... "The album sold several million copies in the U.S and was certified Diamond, and it was also certified multi-platinum in Australia, Canada and New Zealand." Then, Rob went and did Smooth.
@@captainKbobkeeshan If you're gone was huge long before this and it was released in 2000! Still my favorite!
I wake up to this song every morning, It makes me get out of bed dancing, love it 💕
Yeah, this upload is amazing, have a great day Beth!
This song brings me back to a relationship and a girl that I loved so much, good memories...
A nice contrast to the last one begging for someone to love you. #Oh boohoo, please I can't make you love me if you don't. In this case #Give me your heart, make it real, or else forget about it 😘😎✌️😏
Yourself or Someone Like You was my favorite cd for ages.
The same for me
I love all MB20 CD, and the earlier Rob Thomas solo CDS
Santana has been a great name in music since the 60's. My dad always hummed "black magic woman" as he would cook during his school breaks when he went back to college. He took over the home duties and worked on the mowers and cars while mom just worked her 8 hour shifts. He really spoiled us all. Taught my sister to knit and play a recorder and I changed mom's clutch in her mustang without any physical help. Just hints and advice from him.
So many memories of late night cruises in summer. Everyone meeting up to grab more beer and the girls all dancing. Ending the nights at daybreak and a few drag races. I still hold the record almost 20 years later. God I would go right back there for another go at the easier days
Your mum has great taste! This is one of my all time favourite songs. Great collaboration.
I've always loved his voice because he uses that nasal tone so well.
Actually Push and 3am were huge Matchbox songs that were out before this song. He was a big deal for about a year before this.
I love how Thomas doesn't try to keep up with the band in his vocals. Perfect complement to the amazing instrumentation.
Never realized how low this song was for him, yet it fits the song perfect. Saw him a few years ago and hasn’t lost an ounce of energy. Same can’t be said for Adam Duritz…
Love that you went with the live version over the music video. Love this concert.
Just a heads up, Matchbox 20's Yourself or Someone Like You album was released in 1996 and was already over 7x platinum or so by the time smooth came out 3 years later... Maybe they never made it big in England I don't know but they were all over MTV and the radio in the USA.
I wake up to this song every morning, It makes me get out of bed dancing, I love it 💕
So me and a group of friends were traveling around Europe about the time Matchbox 20 was hitting. We would hear song after song from the album on the radio. One of the girls in the group commented about buying the album and we all agreed that it was great. Fast forward a few months and I am headed back to work after a business trip. A coworker and mutual of the girl friend told me she had died. I thought it was a terrible joke. Unfortunately it wasn’t. She died in her sleep of some sort of undiagnosed heart problem. When I last saw her she was young, beautiful and so full of life. She was just a bubbly person that we all gravitated toward. When I hear this band I am reminded of her and our adventures.
That crowd is absolutely jumping for this song. Even the top floor were on their feet dancing.
Love this track my dad used to play the album supernatural that this song is from in the car all the time such nostalgia Santana is a bad arse guitarist
I think it's interesting, you mentioned something about Rob using techniques singers wouldn't normally use during certain parts/notes, but I don't think the song would have the same feel if he sang it any other way. I hope I made sense there, I'm not a singer or musically inclined in any way. I just know what I like and learn from reaction videos. Being mostly deaf, I don't pick up on things while listening to music, so I appreciate when things are pointed out and discussed that I would normally miss. Thanks for a great video!
Love Rob Thomas and Matchbox20. Pls react to one of his own songs or an M20 song. They have a lot of good ones.
Unwell
Santana has been my favorite artist since the early 70's and have seen him live more times than I can say and have seen this song performed with numerous singers. Nobody can seem to add the fire to it like Rob Thomas.
Woke up to this! Great way to start my Saturday!!!
you way of analyze all those singers or the way of your eyes, i dont know really what is so much beautiful
i actually already knew matchbox twenty and liked it before this came out. A good amount of people from school knew the band also, when i saw this song i was like hell yea i like them both and i loved the song quick. what i think is, most people maybe didnt know his actual name and just knew the band before this song.
I was not expecting this! Fantastic! I had no idea he sounded so great live. Thank you so much for taking a look at this.
Can I request something from LP? Like "Lost on You" or "Muddy Waters", both have Live Session versions!
Hey! Here is my reaction to LP: ruclips.net/video/Z9IuH61-RbA/видео.html
Great selection...two great artists!!
Fun story from my university days... We played this song to my friend's roommate who never heard of Santana...and she said: Awww, Santana is so cute, I just don't understand why he needs that grandpa! xD We tried not to laugh too hard, but we couldn't help ourselves!
🤦😭😱
This Live version is my favorite of this song, So relaxed yet so much energy and emotion from this Live version. The original video version of Smooth was ok but it was more rehearsed and set up for a music video. Carlos Santana is one of my favorite guitarists also and he's not a spring Chicken anymore but to play with such emotion and energy at his age is fantastic.
I love Rob Thomas I love Santana, They are both smooth
Love that song! Reminds me of Freshman year in college! It is a timeless song, but at the same time, is a definite moment in time!
That guitar is a custom love the tone, you know you have made a mark when someone hears you and they know by style and tone who it is.
These guys had a really different sound. Loved them.
So glad you picked the best version.
God, you could not escape this song when it came out. It was like a fart that would just not waft away.
Who would want it to?
I have been a fan of Santana since I was a kid in the late 60's, and my father owning their 1st 5 albums on 8-Track tapes. THIS comment is definitely true on LA "Hit" radio stations that I had to listen to at work, and various public places :p.
Going to have to correct you....Their first album came out in 1996 and had 5 hits on it. THEN he did smooth with Carlos.
I'd never heard of Rob before this, but LOVE this song with it's incredible Latin vibe. IF so could dance I would be doing it now. Not heard this live version but really enjoyed it - 'Just forget m'bout it! '
Hi Beth!! The article I read, very interesting by the way, mentioned Santana not having much of a hit in the last few years. One day Santa had this casual meeting on the East coast as I recall, with a very good friend who was part of his group years before around the time of hits like "Black Magic Women" in a capacity as a producer or something like that. This friend wasn't doing much and suggested they get together again. Beyond that I don't remember how "Smooth" came together and unfortunately I didn't save the article. I mention this because the title of the article was how "Smooth became the second largest selling single ever". I love Santana but had never heard "Smooth" before.
This song is so hot. His voice 😍
Great selection for a reaction! RAWR!
A very special friend of mine was playing the trombone in that concert!! His name is Abel Figeroa
You should react to "Matchbox Twenty - Bright Lights (Live)" that's an amazing performance of the band!
Pleaseeeee
BETH YOU THE BEST!!
They’re doing this song faster than the recorded version. Btw, Rob Thomas was homeless, when he got signed with Matchbox 20. I drove the producers daughter, who told me this, but I’m sure this information is on the internet.
I like your breakdown like always, but I'd be lying if I said I came here for anything other than Santana. Best guitarist EVER.
Those dance moves though haha. More Rob Thomas, Matchbox, classic rock
I love you Beth, but Matchbox Twenty was a legit hit band years before smooth. My band was doing a cover of 3AM before Smooth ever came out!
Great analysis though.
Tony Vasile well said! I caught that too!! We love ya anyway Beth!
Yeah they won tons of awards for their debut album in 96...
And a fantastic debut it was
Indeed. I remember back then it was more like Santana trying to hitch the Matchbox 20 wagon.
I remember this song as the end of Matchbox 20 and Rob's solo career launch.
back in 2000, me and my mom used to hear this on the radio on our ways to Grandpaws house to check his blood sugar!!! lol
Hi Beth,
So I'm an old school fan of Santana, as this and The Beatles in the late 60's is what I grew-up on, since my late-Father weaned me on Rock music. He owned the 1st 5 albums on "8-Track Tapes", and we heard them on every trip in my Papa's 67 Mustang Fastback.
It's a MUST (I'm not sure you have yet...) that you hear the early era with "Gregg Rolie" on lead vocals and keys (he also co-founded Journey with guitarist Neal Schon who was 18 when he joined Santana as well). Since its Latin/African based, most of their music makes you want to dance, even you have 2 left feet like I do :p. But they were a staple at family parties, with all the other older Latin singers you've been featuring.
But all these guys were extremely virtuosic musicians, no matter what line-up throughout the 70's and 80's.
Try tracks (Live or in-studio):
Black Magic Woman/Gypsy Queen
Everybody's Everything
Hope you're feeling better
Evil Ways
- I hope you do more Progressive Rock and Prog Metal soon Beth :).
I listen to another Englishwoman, Mary Spender, who interviewed Santana last year. His understanding of what music is about was enlightening in their short interview. She is on RUclips by her name. She is a singer songwriter and guitarist.
Loved this song more the first million times i heard it, but it is still such a sweet groove.
..and if i may, if any further proof were needed that Gingers are the most stunning beauties on earth, there is Beth . Add intelligence, sunny disposition, and of course that voice as well. Your BF is all sorts of fortunate.
Cheers!

I absolutely love Matchbox Twenty 🥰 You should react to more of his songs 🎵
I was dancing along with you in Australia in 2021.
Santana "Corazon espinado!!! Such a great review as always!!!!
8 Grammys off one track lol they were killing it that year
Carlos Santana de los más grandes músicos que pasará ala historia. Cómo mexicano es un orgullo que represente a México gracias Beth 👏👏🍀🍀
Please consider doing a vid on early HIM, Ville Valo has a great voice!
Elizabeth Beach yes, Ville has incredible voice!
HiM - Rebel Yell live ❤️
Yaas Gone With the Sin
Wicked Game
Passion's Killing Floor
Oh now that you mention him, please you should react to George Michael! what a great singer he was.
Who did you do the six part harmony for and how did it turn out? Love Santana and all the great artists he performed with! And thank for all the info that you oblivious have do research. Love it Young Lady!! Great analysis!!👍😎 Subscribed after only listening just a couple! Keep up the great work, greatly appreciated!!!❤️👍😎
sooo cute!! rawr! love the energy
Thank you!! 😊
I got to see Carlos once, at the Amp in Tampa. Rob wasn't there.
I have seen literally hundreds of guitarists; none can compare. His fusion of Spanish, blues and rock is amazing!:)
Ooh love beth dance
i love your little history facts about the artist
Well for this video specifically she is wrong, Rob Thomas and Matchbox 20 were a huge band years before this song.
This song did not catapult Rob Thomas or MB20 into stardom, they were famous already.
I've always loved this song
In the original video, the woman dancing in front of Carlos was Rob's wife :)
Please consider doing a vid on early HIM, Ville Valo has a great voice!
It's the woman in the window, then dancing in front of Rob, not Carlos. Blue top. Her name is Marisol.
Great song, Beth your hair is glorious 😍
Hello from Mexico City Beth!
Hello!!! My English is bad, I need to watch the video sometimes two time :D, but i love your reacts.
That's a good practice then. :)
