More Than You Think You Are, released November 2002, is the third album from the band Matchbox Twenty. Although it was not as commercially successful as the band's two earlier efforts, (Yourself or Someone Like You and Mad Season), it had a large radio presence. The album features a wide variety of alternative rock sounds: the rock-and-roll guitar of "Feel" and "Disease"; the sarcastic, riff-driven "You're So Real" and "All I Need"; the ballads "Hand Me Down" and "The Difference"; the piano-driven "Could I Be You" and "Bright Lights"; the hugely popular pop hit "Unwell"; and the rock-and-roll/gospel "Downfall", complete with a full gospel choir.
