The English questions thread
Sometimes I sing along to a Pearl Jam CD and realise that I don't even know what certain lines mean, literally. I know Eddie's lyrics are ambiguous and is left for the listener to interpret but that is not what I'm talking about: I mean the English itself - words or expressions. And I'm sure I'm not the only one here so I…

Lukin - Yay or Nay?
I have to say I really don't enjoy this song live. I actually quite like the album version, but whenever the guys play it live it just really doesn't do it for me. What do other people think?

Jeremy.....
Can somebody please help me to understand what these lyrics mean..... "The dead lay in Pools of maroon below" who are the dead? "Gnashed his teeth and bit the recess lady's breast" ????? "King Jeremy the Wicked" is it because no one loves him and he then sees himself as this bad ''wicked'' person?

True meaning "north is to south what the clock is to time"
ok, so maybe i don't "know" the true meaning of the lyric, but here I go: "North is to South what the clock is to time" North is the opposite of South. Many times the way that a clock measures time feel like the complete opposite of how a human measures time. for example, if it's monday and you hate your job, an hour feels…

Rickie Lee Jones and the Black tag
I always thought this was the song that Ed got that little melody from. Does anyone else know this song? I heard it on the radio recently, and I thought about it again. :) We Belong Together by Rickie Lee Jones I say this was no game of chicken You were aiming your best friend That you wear like a switchblade on a chain…

Holy smoke
"Sometimes" I turn to myself, "Dear God..." Tremor Christ? How many of you feel that Jesus would have had a much less painful and demoralized crucifixion had he not spent so much of his time saving the souls of so many murderers, thieves, rapists, prostitutes, and such? Agree? Maybe when you're cursing me you don't feel…

Music - Found Or Created?
Do you think that music was "created" by human beings or "found" by human beings? I go with found because it seems so perfect and universal. Just curious how others felt.

handwritten lyrics to Love Boat Captain?
Hey guys, long time no post!! I am looking for, if they exist (can't recall if they do) the handwritten lyrics to Love Boat Captain. I'm thinking of making a tattoo of Ed's writing for either of these lyrics: OR Please email the scan or link directly to me, as I don't frequent the boards much anymore (though, if it's a…

No Code Vinyl
I wasn't sure which section to post this in, so I'm going with WM...C because it almost seems logical. I recently obtained (today!) a vinyl (yup, a record!) copy of "No Code", which has always been my #2 favorite PJ release. I'll be damned if the words and music aren't hitting me harder than they ever have before. I've…

North is to south as the clock is to time
What does this mean? My husband loves all the other lyrics to "I am mine" but this one bugs him... at first blush, it's a total mis-analogy. The only thing I could think of to make sense of it is something like this: if you know north, you can use it to figure out south, like you use a clock to figure out time-- so it'd be…

EV's Growin Up
I can't believe that my chance of seeing this song played live, sung by bruce and the ESB, is actually less than my chance to see EV cover it, especially on the upcoming solo tour. Bruce really did a great job on this number and I hope ya'll get to hear EV play it! btw...Nice choice for a cover, Ed :) GROWIN' UP© Live 10…

Light Years Question
I have always thought light years was a good song but after I heard it live at camden this year i was really blown away. i have been listening to it more and more since then and also to boots that is included in. but there is one thing that i was unsure of, is the song only about when you lose someone because of death?
