Rob Thomas Explains The Meaning Of ‘3 AM’

‘3 AM’ was the 3rd Single off Matchbox 20’s 1996 debut album, ‘Yourself or Someone Like You.’  The song hit #3 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart!  

Up until recently, I always thought that Rob Thomas was singing about a relationship with a former girlfriend. According to Rob, “3am was written about a time when I was 12 or 13 and my mother had cancer.”

After watching the video below from VH1 Storytellers, you may have a whole new appreciation for the song.
