| Notes |
| Rob Thomas: Vocals, Acoustic Guitar on "Hang" Kyle Cook: Lead Guitar, bgv's Adam Gaynor: Ryhtm Guitar, bgv's Brian Yale: Bass Paul Doucette: Drums Matt Serletic: Keyboards Produced by Matt Serletic for Melisma Productions, Inc. Engineered by Jeff Tomei Mixed by Greg Archilla and Matt Serletic Recorded at Triclops Recording, Atlanta Assisted by John Nielsen Mixed at House of Blues Studios, Memphis Assisted by Malcolm Springer Mastered by Stephen Marcussen at Precision Mastering. "Push" was nominated for a 1998 Grammy Award for Best Rock Performance By A Duo Or Group With Vocal. On YOURSELF OR SOMEONE LIKE YOU, Matchbox 20's debut, vocalist/lyricist Rob Thomas leads his band down the same path as Counting Crows, to a post-Pearl Jam, Van Morrison/Band-influenced home at the top of the charts. Thomas' raspy voice wraps a romanticized alienation around folky, roots-inflected rock tunes that share the thematic aspirations of Van circa TUPELO HONEY and The Band's self-titled second album, if not their literary wisdom. Having lived through the grunge breakthrough, the Georgia quintet puts far more `oomph' into their power-chords than those classic rockers ever could. Their best results--the melancholy description of an emotionally isolated lover on "3 AM," the embittered daydream of "Real World," even the upbeat don't-give-a-damn rave-up "Girl Like That"--fit snugly on the same shelf as the aforementioned Crows and fellow crackers Collective Soul.
