 How far they've come August 10, 2008
Amaranth (Northern California)
"How far we've come" is a rare achievement for Matchbox 20. It's an infectious, rollicking song that's not the usual mopey "poor me" song we've come to expect from the Floridian mainstream rockers. There are rumors that Rob Thomas was dabbling in Scientology thanks to Tom Cruise... and in this song,he's tapping into something cosmic. "How far we've come" is ironic, poignant, comic, and timely. It's anthemic. It's good arena rock. It's thoughtful crowd-surfing music. Matchbox 20 has come far!

She is a MT fan and I can tolerate them but this song just seems so repetitive. It's not terrible, but not really a song I can go crazy for either.
 One of Matchbox Twenty's Best Singles March 6, 2008
Flap Jackson (State Road, NC)
After a hiatus from music, Matchbox Twenty/20 is back in business, at least for this half best-of/ep, then it's back to the solo work. So, you could look at this as their comeback song, and it greatly tides over our thirst for everything MB20. First off, the lyrics are incredible just like they are with any MB20 song, with lyrics like, "I'm waking up at the start of the end of the world/ but it feels just like every other morning before." The song is catchy and well-written, and overall just well done. And even though this is a rather successful single, it doesn't really sound it. In fact, most of the best songs on their albums were singles anyhow. The bridge is also great musically, and the only thing that could get me down on this song is the chorus. While it is a great chorus for concerts, and to get you pumping, it just seems like more could have been done to it.
But overall, a great song, a great single, a great group. Here's to hoping MB20 comes back much sooner rather than later. We need new material here!

When it comes to acts who've made reunions this past year, most have brought the substance back to the table like Genesis and The Police. That also was said last year with Matchbox Twenty with their latest track. How Far We've Come, the first single from their 2007 Greatest Hits album Exile On Mainstream is a great song. It really shows that Rob Thomas and the group haven't lost that luster after all those years away from the music scene, and with Rob Thomas on his own with Something To Be. The song sounds refreshing, lively and feels really good. I hope Matchbox Twenty can keep making good songs like this one on their next album.
Song: B+
