I LOVE PEARL JAM. MY NEW STRESS RELIEVER. MY husband passed this year. I'm so lost. Pearl jam helps me. I know they were here bout a month ago. I missed seeing them. My son forgot to tell me. TAKE CARE 😘

This is better than the studio recording … that little improv soloing touch Mcready puts at the end, fucking beautiful and the rasp in Eddie’s voice and growl.

[Trey]

It's def one of the most underrated and dopest songs in the catalog.

[QueenFan-cjjh]

This is like the most Pearl Jammy Pearl Jam video that ever was. Best band in our modern times. damn you COVID for wrecking the tour!

[surferdjnj]

Music like this is more than just words and melody. It has its own gravity too, heavy, dense.

[Saviol]

Pearl Jam and the ability to make awesome b-sides

[ONUR]

I don't have enough words to explain this song. SO FUCKING AWESOME

[sebastianreysr]

Happy birthday Stone Gossard! Pearl Jam is the best band ever!

[walterjr.steinert]

So this is the Best version i've seen. Eddie's voice has a nice growl, Mike adds the killer 52 Tele tone, Stone's LP is Cranked and Jeff & Matt are really into it. Super cool video!

Songs from the past that resonate forever.

[BanthaPoodoo]

Paint a picture, using only gray
Light your pillow, lay back, watch the flames
I'll tell a story, no one would listen that long

It's hard to imagine, it's hard to imagine.
Tear into yourself, count tales on your arm
Ah the beating, tickin' like a bomb
After having seen all that they saw

It's hard to imagine, it's hard to imagine.
Things were different then, all is different now
I tried to explain, somehow.
Things were different then, all is different now
I tried to explain, somehow.

Things were different then, all is different now
I tried to explain, I hope this works somehow.
Things were different then, all is different now
I tried to explain, oh, somehow.
Ooh, oh, oh.

Something about this song, especially the version they played in Boston in 1994, hits you deep in the pit of your stomach..

[MossiahAce]

Love this song. Love the AOL sessions performance to this song.

[paulocruz]

lyrics, music, voice the perfect symbiosis for a band that has a legion of fans unimaginable.
THANK YOU EDDIE, STONE, MIKE, MATT, DAVE

[paulprice]

The band is everything..the people I’ve met through this band are everything

[digitalhavok]

Greatest song, poem, lyrics, whatever you want to deem them, ever...

[MoodyMegReads]

This makes me wanna see you guys live again SO BAD

Sigo a la banda desde el año 1996, cuando tenia 10 años. Desde ahi nació mi amor por la banda. He crecido junto a ellos, pasé mi adolescencia, juventud, el inicio de mi vida adulta y hoy tengo una hija de 11 meses. Cada etapa de mi vida la he acompañado con esta musica. No tengo palabras para describir la sensacion que me embarga cada vez que los escucho. Recuerdo la primera vez que los vi en vivo, en el año 2005 y fue algo muy emocionante. Los siento parte de mi vida, ojala que por mucho tiempo mas. Simplemente gracias.
