"I Know My Mind, I Only Know I'm Mine" I like that line a lot, the rest is fantabulous too, of course, from the Pearls, whatdyaexpect?  Riot Act? |

I'm not a Pearl Jam fan. They write a lot of music that goes nowhere. But this one is absolutely fantastic. The tone of his voice is pleasant to me and his phrasing is amazing. The guitar work is stellar. It's a 10 in my book.
Pearl Jam has earned my respect.

You are right. Maybe that is why I like this so much. |

seems to me that you're drawing the comparison in the wrong direction, there are alot of bands (creed, nickelback) who to me, are alot more 'cliche alt rock' and in my opinion, are major pearl jam/eddie rip off
couldn't agree more. . .

Right. It was hallucinagenic jelly, made by his native american grandmother for his native american grandfather who liked it.
What seventh grade perverted adolescent convinced the person who commented about the origin of the band's name that it was a reference to sperm? I'm not a rabid pearl jam fan, I used to listen to them a lot in the early 90's however and read a great many interviews and articles that actually researched their sources.
pearl jam.....jeez. guess they got it from the ole pearl necklace reference.

There are a couple of songs that I find appealing though, maybe if someone else sang them.
I disagree with 99% of what you said, but he does sound like goat boy on this song. |

Kinda like Elvis sped up sounds like Cher. That Belinda Carlisle observation is hilarious. I can really hear it. Another singing sheep. But somehow I find it easier to tolerate a male singing sheep than a female singing sheep. Go figure. |

so excited to see PJ in Vancouver in September...it's so thoughtful of them to play a concert on my birthday! I'm sure they had that in mind when they scheduled this tour... |

I like to make Eddie Vedder faces and look in the mirror when I lip-sync to this song.
