why all the tags?
do other artists do this? i really don't know. and if so, do people discuss them like we do in this forum? are the tags there to keep us interested in an old song, possibly? what do you think?

"I would rather starve than eat your bread"

Big Fish, too big? Not big enough?
For one, having a classic single linked to a very heart wrenching but otherwise cliche movie should have it merits, in the end it was not enough to win an academy award for Pearl Jam.

Mankind is 10 times better LIVE!
Any live version of Mankind is great! Fast-paced, energetic and fun. PJ's best punk rock moment in my opinion. Check out Las Vegas 2000. The studio version does not do it justice. Hopefully Stone will contribute another song on the next album.

A common theme I've noticed in many of the early stuff is the story of the porch; can…

SNL "Daughter" tag
Just watched the vid of Pearl Jam playing "Daughter" at SNL in '94 and was wondering what the first part of the tag was: "Where I come from nothing's given, Yeah yeah yeah, I resent nepotism Now I paint with turpentine I, I give such good paradigm". http://youtube.com/watch?v=x0RQiCK1o1w I've never heard it before, and…

"Black" revisited
Friends and beloved Pearl Jam fans, It has been said by someone far wiser than I that most good fiction contains certain elements of autobiography within its hallowed pages.
