This import contains 3 great tracks, an album version of "Stay," a radio edit of "Stay," and a live version of "Lover Lay Down." Excellent listening pleasure for any ears, especially those that belong to you seasoned DMB fans!

5.0 out of 5 stars The best song from "Before These Crowded Streets"!, October 1, 1998

This review is from: Stay / Lover Lay Down (Audio CD)

This single provides several versions of the best song from BTCS. It has been touted as the liveliest and happiest song ever produced by the band, and rightly so. Combining lyrics which evoke nothing but smiles, Matthews is accompanied by gospel singers and instrumentals that make this song worthy of all five stars!

5.0 out of 5 stars Dave at its Best, April 23, 2004

This review is from: Stay / Lover Lay Down (Audio CD)

Dave is the best of the best of the pop rock genre, bridging the gap between jazz and rock. That's what makes his songs so awesome. If you're expecting a standard rock group, Dave isn't for you, but if you're at all open to listening to music other than metal or classic rock, this song will turn you into an instant convert.

If you're a skeptic who doesn't understand exactly why Dave is so popular, just listen to this song and you'll understand. This is pop rock at its BEST.

If you're one of those people who've heard alot of Dave and don't think it can get much better, listen to this song. In my opinion it is the best upbeat song he's ever written. After the first half, it gets repetitive, but the first half is AMAZING.
