Satan's Bed Meaning?
Could Satan's bed really be about the core of what PJ stand for? I feel it's about the music industry and how you can take an easy route and sell out with "easy/crap" songs. The description of how you make a band by getting "some flesh to stick so they look like us" - style over content ideas. Plus the whole Bill Hicks…

Who's truly felt the essence of 'In Hiding'?
I am so in love with this song. I am truly in awe of how Ed can convey such a powerful story with such few words....and be so dead on. Give it up for the power of In Hiding! *cheers and claps vigorously*

Whipping....
what is this about? Pro-choice? The band vs media and producers? I read it is about pro choice on songmeanings.net and also media and producers? Very angry song love it.

Save It For Later Betterman
The studio version of Betterman from the early vinyl release on November 22, 1994 and even a few days before that on radio helped push Pearl Jam even further into the hearts and minds of the public. However it is a double edged sword. Some love them for their hard-punk-fast-rockin jams and others for their mid-tempo or…

+++ Cant Keep +++
(( this is a LONG OVERDUE thread and I do apologize for the delay Can't Keep)) I love Can't Keep. It seriously is a song that takes you places. The way Ed draws out the chorus..."Can't keeeeeeeep me heeeeeeeere", really fuckin gets to me! Just they way he sings that it's like he's taken us away from where ever it is that…

"Room Service Tray"
Hi! In 1997, SPIN released and article about PJ. In the end of the article, Eddie Vedder mentions he'd been working on a new song. But the song (as far as we know) was never released. You can read it here: http://www.fivehorizons.com/archive/art ... 0297.shtml We're a band from Brazil, and we've come up with some songs as…

How Pearl Jam saved my life
I've never started my own thread before on the forums. Whenever I saw something interesting I would comment on it but I never had anything I felt was important enough to say to start a thread. Today I have something important to say. About two years and four months ago, I was diagnosed with Crohn's disease, the same…

The power of words in a song.
It's amazing how words, well placed words can bring on such an emotional and often physical response. From scribbles on paper, to noise we hear, to a gutwrenching experience - hopefully for the enrichment of the listener. Or to set a palpable stage for the next words, and other emotions. Even just black and white text can…

Force of Nature
This is it. If I ever get married this would be the song. Two people who are nothing to others find so much between them. I think this is the best love song PJ created. I tell you, there's quite a bit of love on this album, eh?

The Fixer Teacher - Awesome Youtube vid
While perusing and reflecting on Pearl Jam's incredible year on Youtube, I found this awesome vid showcasing The fixer and a group of kids and teachers rockin out. The video totally interprets the song perfectly. It's incredible to see that Pearl Jam can still connect with the old and new generation alike. :D…

What "friend" is Eddie seeing? What does he got "some" of?
Both of these songs seem to be about drugs to be, especially Gonna See My Friend. What do you think? Severed Hand was obviously about drugs, so the band isn't that far removed from the drug scene. In my opinion, I think its pretty lame for a 40-yr olds with kids and families to still be doing drugs. Discuss.

THE ENd
I've never had the urge to actually write in to the band i love to listen to how they've grown since ten but one song in paticular on the new record has me thinking is Ed Sick?? in the last song The end it sounds as if he's telling us or is this complete fiction? I thought I read once the Ed's father died of Multiple…

Song for my sons funeral
Hey Sorry this is a quick selfish post. My son Sebastian was born at 20 weeks gestation on the weekend and died just before his delivery. I'd like a Pearl Jam song at his funeral but just can't remember / have the capacity to think what song has the most suitable lyrics & feel. It's a tough one, he was a boy who hasn't…
