Matt Wong

Matthew Wong (born January 12, 1973 in Hilo, Hawaii) is a bassist and one of the founding members of the California-based ska punk band, Reel Big Fish. He left Reel Big Fish on June 26, 2007.

Wong plays a candy red Music Man Sting Ray five bass with a trademark black pickguard with a piezo pickup.

Appearing on most RBF music videos, his absence from "Don't Start A Band" confused many fans. Matthew regrettably could not attend filming of this video because he had to attend his grandfather's funeral in Hawaii.

His younger sister appears on the cover of the band's first album, Everything Sucks, with a dog's snout in her mouth.

In an extra feature on the DVD included on Our Live Album Is Better Than Your Live Album, Wong states that he came up with the name "Real Big Fish". The band had not had a name up until their first demo. The demo was entitled, "the Fisher King: Reel Big Fish," after the movie. The band's lead singer, Aaron Barrett, decided on Real Big Fish, and he changed the a in the word "Real" to an 'e'. Matthew said it was the most embarrassing thing he'd ever done in the band. They planned to change it when something cooler came along but it never happened.

No No Never

by: Matt Bianco

Come closer to me, drift into my melody
Don't resist my charms
When you could be in my arms
Let your inhibitions go
Let me take control
Come closer to me, come closer to me
Let your inhibitions go, body and soul
Come closer to me.....cha cha cha
No, no never, no no never, no no never
No no never
Come closer to me, step into this harmony
Don't deprive yourself
To a helping of myself
Let your inhibitions go
Let me take control
Come closer to me, come closer to me
Let your inhibitions go, body and soul
Come closer to me.....cha cha cha
Give in to, give in to - no, no never
