These guys are as nice & gracious as they are talented, too. I have great high school & college memories in Mississippi hearing them play at Ole Miss & other schools. 1991-1996.. and their very first release, Surprise, is outstanding, too.

Thanks for your comment. I went to lots of concerts when I was in America and Better Than Ezra, Melissa Etheridge and Del Amitri were the ones I really remember and which blew me away. Better Than Ezra were incredible, as I knew they would be but better than I'd even imagined. They're a great band and I never get tired of hearing their songs!

Probably one of my favorite BTE songs. I do cry when I hear it. He has put into words what every parent feels.....Yes, the one thing that we both did perfectly...

Thank you so much for sharing this video! This is a GREAT song! Better Than Ezra is a great band and has been rocking for a loooooong time. I remember listening to them when I was in middle school... HAHAHAHA! Those were the days!

I love this band and have been a big fan for years since Deluxe came out. I don't understand how they can be barely even known here in England because they're so good. This is an excellent acoustic version of Closer, which is one of my favourite songs of theirs. It's so moving. Kevin has the most amazing voice and his songwriting is fantastic. I was lucky enough to see them live in NYC in the 90s when I was in America for awhile and they were incredible.

Just the BEST BAND NEVER NOTICED! I am still taken aback that these guys aren't more prominent. It's a shame. Kevin's voice is one of the best voices in any genre or time...not to mention song writer....I cry every time I hear this song...

That's right... They're my favortie band. We all ezralites agree to say they might be one the most underrated bands ever, but may be that's what makes them be so good... Concerning Kevin's voice, I'm speechless, it's awesome, it's among the best ,like you said, in any genre, what about the falsetto in Juicy, for example?... Anyway, fans keep them alive and kicking, no matter how well or badly their records sell. Long live BTE! ha,ha

The band at least seems to be handling the departure well. Travis is a great guy and I wish him nothing but the best. I can't wait for the new album in May.

BTE are truly the BEST band of the 2000"s , when it comes to originality and great songs! IMHO

Travis left???? Aww I thought they were gonna last forever. So glad they aren't breaking up, I think I would cry if that happened. They are my favorite band since I was like 12, so almost 14 years!!

Well apparently by '3rd album' you mean Friction, Baby. I was too young to ever realize they had 2 demo albums and I always thought Deluxe was their first one. I've never heard of the other 2 even when searching for rare BTE stuff. Do you know if those songs can be found anywhere?

xGSx, when something is 'acoustic' simply implies the instrument types played during.. and in the case of this video/song, it is most certainly acoustic not electric. All the sounds are naturally produced by the individual instruments.

Any background on Michael Jerome, the new drummer? I hate Sugerland for stealing Travis. We need to hear it from the band, I guess, then we'll hear it for ourselves. Drummers are notoriously able to grab a song in a hurry, and play it as well, if not improved, from the originator. I assume BTE knew of a great backup , don't you? Always prepare for the worst.
