This was back when MTV was still good and actually played music. I still don't fully understand why, but their Unplugged series somehow created some of the most amazing live performances of all time!

[raymcarthur]

Hard to find a better live performance than this one, it’s a real masterpiece!

[douglasanderson]

I heard Black on the radio hundreds of times and never knew what it was about or really gave it much consideration. Then a few years ago I saw the unplugged version from MTV. I don't believe I've ever heard a sadder song, and what a fantastic performance. Thanks to this song this old hippie decoverd all the great grunge bands l would of missed. So glad Pearl Jam has been able to survive.

This is better than the studio version.

I know someday you’ll have a beautiful life, I know you’ll be a star, in somebody’s else’s sky, but why, why, why can’t it be, can’t it be in mine.

That is pure poetry!

[Duane]

This song never gets old for those that have been through similar heartaches, life flashes before your eyes/black

Pearl Jam's Album "Ten" is Flawless as a of this band served their apprenticeship with other bands Like Green River and Mother love bone so, in my opinion, this is perfection.

I always find myself listening to this version of the song over the original. His vocals here are incredible. To this day, the best live performance I have ever heard.

[aaronmurphy]

These MTV Unplugged concerts were amazing! Pearl Jam was an incredible live band back then. I'm sure they still are! Eddie was always an extremely passionate performer, and the whole band was super high energy live. Their performance from the early 90s at Pinkpop is definitely worth checking out!

I used to live in the Seattle area and I actually got to meet Eddie Vedder once, at a Trader Joe's of all things. He was the most humble guy you could ever ask for. I told him that his song Black on Unplugged was the most epic I'd ever heard and he smiled and said, "Not bad for a guy who had a cold that day." I shook his hand and let him be. It's my opinion that Pearl Jam releases records to give us a hint of what we'll see live. Their studio albums always pale in comparison to what they present live, and that's something practically all bands can't boast. Pearl Jam is ALWAYS better live.

"If you can't appreciate this man...I don't know what you're doing with your life". LOL, I love that!! Women STILL falling in love with Eddie Vedder all these years later! I've loved him since the start, Pearl Jam is brilliant.

[adamworld]

This is the one I've been waiting for. ❤

[lesterwilliams]

The best sounds reach deep inside your soul, a place we have tucked away and tried to avoid dealing with.
It's the best kind of music to me.

[alanhembra]

This is the performance I point people to when they ask me about Pearl Jam.

You should definitely do Jeremy next.

[J-Schizzle]

Such an amazingly emotional performance. Thanks for another excellent reaction.

[christinegrenier]

Hey Ashley.
I loved your Reaction to Pearl Jam's BLACK. I had the exact same reaction. One big thing I noticed and was so impressed with, was that the live version of almost every one of their songs is like the studio version.
Thank you for sharing your 'Reaction'.

[Kobenoz]

...when people ask me; why couldn't you move on from the 90s' music? This video is one of the reasons...

[GALACTUS-WORLD-EATER]

Hi Ash. great reaction to the live version.

[brianforrester]

Whether or not you do reaction vids, you should watch each song from the Unplugged set. Each performace...stellar.

Funny enough Black didn’t get any air time (at all) in Australia. In fact even after working in radio I’d never heard it till recently. May I say after watching “all” the other reaction channels on this yours has been the best hands down. Jeremy is a 😢sad song about suicidal teenager and nothing to do with a mass shooter. Pearl Jam stopped making videos after Jeremy for this reason alone. In my opinion and it’s mentioned in Michael J Fox’s Biography “Given to fly would have to be the best most uplifting song ever written. Unfortunately it wasn’t included in this unplugged series from Melbourne Park Australia. Love to know why they performed unplugged at the Melbourne Tennis Centre nevertheless as you mentioned the mixing and sound quality is second to none. 🎉Happy New Year 24 House of marsh.
