To all the "I hate Pearl Jam but dig this song" folks out there, Pearl Jam is not Ten and Versus.

They have been around and maintained a very large fan base because they are a collective of 3 brilliant songwriters and two other viruosos who also contribute to the writing. Each of the 5 has different influences they bring to the table. Each of them gets the time to stretch out and pursue other musical and art projects.

They are not Eddie. They are built on the foundation of Stone and Jeff who were writing separately and together many years before PJ. They have a top ten lead guitarist in Mike and a top five rock drummer in Matt. They are a band in the true sense. Check em out.

Of The Girl lyrics

oh he deals em off, off the top, ties em off
fills it up, with his past, gets carried away
oh half his life, a hand me down, wasted away
of he fills it up, with the love, of a girl
oh he left it alone, drilled the pain, with money to buy
how he makes his getaway
how he makes his getaway
oh he chose a path, heavy the fall, quarter to four
fills his night, with the thought, of a girl
how he makes his getaway
how he makes his getaway
how he makes his getaway

hola, that's 'cuz this is actually stone gossard. i mean it's pjam but it's really gossard. he wrote it,laid it all out,played guitar,even recorded it at his studio i think. plus the binaural recording techniques weren't their ideas either, they used a different producer...plus throw in matt cameron....

Great song even better live to open a show. For those that can't stand PJ, check out their Yield album and reevaluate.

Not cool!!!!... I hit the rate button too fast and got the default rating of 5... I then tried to re-rate it 9... 3 times, but seems my rating of 5 has stuck... What up Bill??? That was a mighty fine track

Edit: Ok so now my 9 rating shows... I wonder if it shows 3 times {#Whistle}

Anyone else just get back from PJ20 as I did.

Unbelievable 2 days of music.

ok...not a massive Pearl Jam fan but this song is brilliant! I thought it was Ian Ball from Gomez singing at first. Never head the similarities in their vocals till now. Fabulous!
