This song is pathetic, but in an kind of endearing way- like watching my Uncle play the accordian.

Does the vocalist get that sound by physically shaking his Adam's Apple?

Again - still waiting for your OPINION on a better purely American "rock and roll band", a "better live rock and roll band," or a "rock and roll band with a better cadre of songwriters" and another rock band that is not named the Rolling Stones or U2 could sell out NYC arenas for 3 nights YEARS PAST THEIR PEAK RECORD SELLING TIME. There's a handful of very good bands currently in their prime record selling exposure who are selling out arenas for 1 or 2 nights. |

Personally i can easily think of a couple of live bands still touring today, but that's offtopic...
All the things you mention are a matter of taste, i can understand why you feel that way, but don't put it down as if you're talking about facts here, because Pearl Jam doesn't rank high in my book... And i'm guessing there are quite a few with me here on RP... Solidarity brother!  |

I'm right behind you on that Lemmoth. Pearl Jam is the last true rock and roll band!

This song would be really great if it was just Eddie and a ukelele. Deep in the Mariana Trench.

In response to the previous comment - Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers. Nothing against Pearl Jam, I think they're great too.

So -still waiting for your opinions - other than an opinion on Lady Gaga - who -SOB is right is very talented. What I am saying is there is a reason for the fanatacial loyalty of us PJ fans, and at the heart of our relationship is the music. |

Ms. Gaga is a very intelligent woman. And she is very talented. As is PJ. Good music both. |
