Sometimes I feel like I'm falling
Fall back again, fall back again,
Fall back again, fall back again
Oh, life it seems a struggle between
What we see what we do
I'm not going to change my ways
Just to please you or appease you
Look at this crowd, six billion proud
Willing to punch it out
Right, wrong, weak, strong
Ashes to ashes all fall down
Look around about this round
About this merry-go-round and around
If at all God's gaze upon us falls
It's with a mischievous grin, look at him
Forget about the reasons and
The treasons we are seeking
Forget about the notion that
Our emotions can be kept at bay
Forget about being guilty,
We are innocent instead
For soon we will all find our lives swept away
Look at me in my fancy car
And my bank account
Oh, how I wish I could take it all down
Into my grave, I'd save
Take a look again, take a look again,
Take a look again
Everyday things change,...stay the same
Forget about the reasons and
The treasons we are seeking
Forget about the notion that your emotions can be
Wept away, kept at bay
Forget about being guilty, i am innocent instead
For soon we will all find our lives swept away
You seek up an emotion
And our cup is overflowing
You seek up an emotion,
Sometimes your well is dry
You seek up a big monster
For him to fight your wars for you
But when he finds his way to you, the devil's not
Going--ha, ha
Say, oh say
Late at night with TV's hungry child
His belly swells
Oh, for a price of a coke or a smoke
I could keep alive those hungy eyes
Take a look again, take a look again
Take a look again
Every day things change
But basically you and me stay the same(*)
Forget about the reasons and
The treasons we are seeking
Forget about the notion that
Our emotions can be kept at bay
Intentions are not wicked,
Don't be tricked into thinking so
Soon we will all find our lives swept away
You seek up an emotion
And our cup is overflowing
You seek up an emotion,
Sometimes your well is dry
You seek up a big monster
For him to fight your wars for you
But when he finds his way to you,
The devil's not going--ha, ha
Fall back again, fall back again,
fall back again...
Fall back again, fall back again,
Fall back again, fall back again

Interesting because, for the life of me, I can't understand the blanket "I hate all DMB music" that a lot of folks spew across every DMB comment section.
This song is amazing to me. The way it builds then releases. The joyful introspection of the lyrics. The fucking passion of the musicians! I've been listening to this song for over 20 years now and I still turn it up to 10 every time it comes on.
Lordy, I didn't like that one!
For the life of me I don't understand Dave Matthews's popularity
It sort of reminds me of that scene in an old Woody Allen movie where one older lady says she didn't like the food in a restaurant and her friend agrees and says..' and the portions were so small!'
That 'song' wasn't enjoyable and the portion was way too large!

I first heard this song on Radio Paradise in 2013 and can't get enough of it. Its energy is overwhelming. My wife and me at once became (continuous) big fans of DMB. We really like their music and got the rare chance to meet the band in a concert in Berlin last year after their absence in Europe for nearly five years (the main reason why e.g. in Gernany DMB is almost unknown).Thanks RP for being introduced to the great music and band.

Fingernails on the chalkboard. Can't say exactly what it is that makes me hate this but this is the worst of whatever "it" is.

This is pretty much exactly how I feel about DMB. I'm not a hater and I do like a few of his songs. But most of them, this included, just drive me up the wall with his weird voice inflections. For as much crap as people throw at Bono and U2, Dave Mathews seems at least twice as pretentious.
Epic musicianship for sure, but I just don't believe the stories these guys are telling. Not for want of trying....
DMB somehow always feel pretentious IMHO, music for music's sake, or other musicians.

Another hot chocolate mess from the DMB. Turned on RP with a big smile on my face, coffee in hand, it's gonna be a GREAT day!...and this musical travesty comes forth from my speakers. UGH.
thought is was an acoustic twilight zone for a minute...

An amazing song to see played live. Love those drums Carter! Not my favorite version but rating it a 10 to offset the whiny Dave haters.
"Fuckin' long i'n'it?"
By the time it ends you can hear that most of what's going on is tics and mannerisms ... a little hard to listen to.
A sonic disaster.

Say what you will about Dave Matthews, but the late great Leroi Moore and his sax make the intro to this song so special. He was truly one of a kind.

I totally see your perspective (I think), but this performance really seems to work the same vein so completely that whatever inspiration may have initiated it seems lost far back along the trail. I am generally agnostic about his divinity, but can appreciate the effort that went into this performance. Just not moved in any direction

I like DMB, but this, this, is God awful. I think it has to be one of those "you had to be there" songs.

I'm not a rabid DM fan. I tend to take him in measured doses. But this monumental opus is amazing. The haters can say what they want—of course, they always do—about DM, but he's never stuck in a rut, is absolutely committed to his music, and has kept his band pretty much intact (RIP LeRoi Moore).

It ran a little long for my tastes. And then about 10 minutes beyond that.

This is a fantastic song.
What was Dave on here? Or just super tired on the road from many shows and free forming looped wayyyy out? Usually his wordplay is much crisper than this.

It would be interesting to hear a Dave Matthews/Eddie Vedder duet (both in growel mode). Excruciating, but interesting. They would have to put me into one of those oral surgery chairs with the big velcro straps to keep me from hurting myself.
Live, the way dmb should be heard
Somebody's gonna have to convince me Dave's not actually in pain here.
DMB = Love or Hate. I love it (and I think it's a great live album - bought it many many years ago in Boston).

Put me in the Dave is bloody brilliant camp. The more I hear him, the more I like him.
This is an awesome live performance!

I actually don't mind this song...but DMB's "live" albums have grown tiresome and this version of Seek Up is particularily dull. Ever since Kenny G I do not need to hear saxaphone anymore...nevermind sax solos and fills every 20 seconds. 3

You can argue about DMB's music, whether it's dull or brilliant or whatever. What I really don't understand though, is the hysterical audience they attract. I mean, come on... it's not like they're incredibly good looking or make really exciting music. Then why the incessant screaming? I saw them in Europe once, because I was curious what they would be like live. Apparently a large group of crusties had travelled along and made the whole concert completely unbearable because of their screeching and wailing (no, not the band...)
You can ask the same question about Dane Cook. There is absolutely nothing remotely humorous in his act. But people whoop and cheer (though there's not much actual laughter).
What 's wrong with this guys voice? I can't stand it. sounds like he's singing through a Milk web in his throat.
What a waste of a band.
What a waste of a band.
Holy crap, this sucks.
You can argue about DMB's music, whether it's dull or brilliant or whatever. What I really don't understand though, is the hysterical audience they attract. I mean, come on... it's not like they're incredibly good looking or make really exciting music. Then why the incessant screaming?

It's a while now since I've bothered to comment on RP. But I just have to say that this is the longest set of out-of-tune "musicians" there is on the RP playlist. Time to give it a loooooooooooooooooooong rest, please.
Well, it's not the worst DMB track I've ever heard, and the instrumental opening is quite nice. I was actaully enthralled enough to tab on over, only to discover I was listening to DMB. "Better wait on getting all excited, " I thought. So it gets a solid 5 for the time being.
Uugggggghhhh. Get rid of Matthews and Kenny G and this would almost be listenable. Or not...
Interesting because, for the life of me, I can't understand the blanket "I hate all DMB music" that a lot of folks spew across every DMB comment section.
This song is amazing to me. The way it builds then releases. The joyful introspection of the lyrics. The fucking passion of the musicians! I've been listening to this song for over 20 years now and I still turn it up to 10 every time it comes on.
Case in point: Can't say that I "hate all DMB music" but I do find much of it to be repetitive. With that said, I love this piece.
