MYM Lyrics, and Thoughts?
Ive listened to the new single multiple times. I will be first to admit, I am not the best at deciphering Ed's lyrics. I am shocked that there isn't more talk of lyrics, cause this is one of the main things I love about Pearl Jam. So, with a little help from my friends.... what lyrics are you guys hearing?

What's the matter with Speed of Sound?
I've read many people talking about Amongst The Waves, Just Breathe and Unthought Known from Backspacer. I really think they're amazing songs but nobody mentions Speed of Sound among the good ones on the last album. Since I listened to the demo I thought it was wonderful. The words are really powerful and I believe they…

Corduroy... Lyric interpretation
Just a little food for thought... I had always believed that... Could "Spelled my t-shirt" be "spill my diction" - - What I always thought it was... and for me, makes it a more intelligent lyric... Diction 1. the choice and use of words and phrases in speech or writing. "Wordsworth campaigned against exaggerated poetic…

Hail, Hail
A No Code favorite of mine...it totally rocks. Here's a clip of the band performing it live on David Letterman's '96 show. He comments on how the band's appearing "sponsor-free". Love it! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zOAzJFd4KDA (Only thing I hated was how they cut off "Leaving Here", which closed out the show. Ah,…

MYM and other PJ songs with religious commentary
There seems to be a lot of contention over the religious implications of Mind Your Manners, but if you consider some other songs by PJ I think Ed's, and presumably the rest of the band's, contempt for religion is clear. Consider Garden and Faithfull. Garden seems to be about facing death without buying into the consolation…

Given To Fly - lyrics/song discussion
This has to be one of the most uplifting liberating songs in Pearl Jam's catalogue. I just want to know what do you all think it is that has liberated this person who the song is focused on? I am not to sure, but he has achieved happiness somehow to rid him of personal demons holding him down. LYRICS: He could have tuned…

Favorite specific part of a song?
I was lying in bed the other night, in the darkness...just drifting away with PJ...I had my skullcandy's on at high volume, and I put on the bootleg of my very first PJ concert...07/02/2006 Denver, CO... They opened with WWS, and it was incredible, but it's not until now that I realize how spot on they were that night.…

when a word is sung like what it means...
Is there a term for when a singer sings a word in a way that suggests the meaning of the word? I think Ed does this brilliantly. An example would be the way he sings "cringe" in "Sometimes". It sounds just like he's cringing. Anybody have other examples?

"Of The Earth" lyrics

crazy mary
okay, so is this song ultimately about not letting hatred (small group hatred for instance) take a person's life? like in the same way that the KKK played God--or Hitler for that matter.? It also kind of reminds me of the Salem witch trials a little. Am I right about this? what is the song really about, if I'm wrong here?
