拥有首张专辑就获得美国录音工业协会(RIAA)最高荣誉钻石奖(销售量达1千万张)荣誉的火柴盒20合唱团(matchbox twenty)，其中的风云人物，也是乐团里的灵魂要角-主唱罗伯汤玛斯(Rob Thomas)，曾获选为People杂志“50名全球最美丽的人物”之一，也曾在1999年为山塔纳(Santana)重新复出的首波单曲"Smooth"助阵而一举获得8项葛莱美奖，不仅替山塔那缔造音乐事业高峰，更在乐界传为一段佳话。这位散发迷人气质的乐坛才子，将在今年五月推出第一张个人大碟《Something to be》，单飞不解散的罗伯，势必为2005乐坛投下一颗大炸弹。
在专辑尚未发行前，罗伯的首支单曲‘Lonely no more—不再寂寞(暂译)’在美国告示排行榜上(截至目前为止)，已经开出亮眼的好成绩： 流行单曲榜拿下No.14、成人单曲榜 No.2！除了首波出击的音乐大受好评之外，音乐录影带更是令人眼睛一亮。‘Lonely no more’砸下重金拍摄音乐录影带，首先看见的是一改中长发颓废装扮的罗伯，以削短发的全新形象，搭配镶有钉扣的蓝色丹宁布外套与富有设计感的牛仔裤，新造型完全把罗伯本来就有的天生俊美脸蛋，表现的更加出色，有人觉得他像都会版的魔戒弓箭手，有人则觉得他像乖乖牌的阿姆。在整支MV中导演运用了电脑特效，让场景中的每样事物都大玩变身魔法，从舞池到卧室，从客厅到饭店，一幕幕的变化表达出现代速食爱情的无常；每个场景里的每样布景(如窗户、壁砖、家具...)也都来回变换。其中值得一提的是，在卧室的一幕场景，当罗伯坐在卧室的床上时，在他身后的多名辣妹，就像回转寿司般，来回在罗伯的床上翻天覆地大玩美女回转寿司。
Rob自己说道,"我之前创作的音乐主题都是比较愤怒和孤寂的,这支单曲也代表着我想改变曲风的双重含义."全新的潇洒形象,全新的摇滚演绎,Rob Thomas的新作不容错过.
Don't you wanna go for a ride
Just keep your hands inside
And make the most out of life
Now don't you take it for granted
Life is like a mean machine
It made a mess outta me
It left me caught between
Like an angry dream I was stranded
And I'm steady but I'm starting to shake
And I don't know how much more I can take
This is it now
Everybody get down
This is all I can take
This is how a heart breaks
You take a hit now you feel it break down
Make you stay wide awake
This is how a heart breaks
Don't you wanna go for a ride
Down to the other side
Feels so good you could cry
Now won't you do what I told you
I remember when you used to be shy
Yeah, once we were so fine
You and I why you gotta make it so hard on me
And I'm sorry but it's not a mistake
And I'm running but you're getting away
You're not the best thing that I knew
Never was never cared too much
For all this hanging around
It's just the same thing all the time
Never get what I want
Never get too close to the end of the line
You're just the same thing that I knew back before the time
