Since everyone seemed to enjoy the Ten and Vs competitions, lets now move on to Vitalogy.
We will play to determine the GREATEST song on the album Vitalogy.

For anyone new to the game:
You are going to pick the song that you think is the "Weakest Link" after 2 days I remove the four (4) songs with the most votes.
We will then move on to Round 2. - Remember you are voting to eliminate songs from contention.

Note - Since Pearl Jam albums generally have more than 10 songs (which is all I can put in a poll), if you want to vote for:

Track 11. Bugs; Just don't vote and put Bugs in your comments.
Track 12. Satan's Bed; Just don't vote and put Satan's Bed in your comments.
Track 13. Better Man; Just don't vote and put Better Man in your comments.
Track 14. Immortality; Just don't vote and put Immortality in your comments.

Again REMEMBER 4 songs will be eliminated in the first round.

Round 1 Poll will end 3/13/17 (Monday) at 3:00cst

    Yes, but I wanted to include the non-traditional tracks actually on the voting board and not one of the 4 extras, so I won't have to count them by hand.

    It should definitely be voted out but I think I'd take this one over Stupid Mop and Pry To.

    Glad to see all three songs listed in the actual vote so they don't sneak through some how. Bugs however...

    Yeah Round 2 is where it'll start to get tough for me I think. I assume Aye, Stupid Mop, Pry To will all go out in Round 1. If not, maybe Round 2 will be easy too :grin:

    Voting Bugs here because if we are eliminating four songs it and the filler songs should be the foursome to go.

    I think it's lack of live performances (compared to the other 10 songs) relegates it to that tier. Plus it's kind of odd.

    I'm sure you're not alone but likely in the minority... and that's okay.

    I saw it at Wrigley '13, and I laughed the whole time. I thought it was really comical to see Eddie play it, and he thought so too, obviously. He definitely wasn't taking the performance seriously. (but TBH I don't really remember anyone else around me laughing their asses off during that, so maybe it's just me, haha). However, I do genuinely like the song. I think the lyrics are super cool and the music goes with them perfectly. I liked it from first listen.

    Certainly the best song on Vitalogy! But pay no attention to PJFan - knowing him, he's just saying that to bug people, lol. ;)

    Actually it's true. Tremor Christ is meh for me. I have listened to all songs on tape equally because when I first got it I listened to the full album over and over again for months (I calculate about a billion times) and TC never really stuck but I listened to it anyway.
    Aye Dav however is a neat little snippet that I don't skip when it comes on after all these years.

    Tremor Christ is pretty damn boring. That and satans bed are my two least favorite "songs" off vitalogy.
