I Got Id
I had a revelation the other day while listening to I Got Shit. I always preferred the title I Got Shit, mainly because it's more fun to say than I Got Id. It was no mystery why the song title was censored, shit is one of those words you just can't say on the radio. It never occurred to me why they chose to call the song I…

Now im single and every song is reminding me!
Isnt it strange,when youre going through an emotional time (happy or sad) pretty much every song you hear (especially pearl jams) is relevant to that situation. I have just separated from my partner of five years, and on the day I was,of course, listening to pj, and I hear some lyrics" I know,life could be different if I…

Thumbing My Way
I have not been home since you left long ago I'm thumbing my way back to heaven Counting steps,.. walking backwards on the road I'm counting my way back to heaven I can't be free with what's locked inside of me... If there was a key, you took it in your hands. There's no wrong or right,... but I'm sure there's good and bad…

Typewriter/Gunshots?
At the end of Binaural you can hear what sounds like a machine gun or a typewriter, but it sounds more like a silenced semi-automatic. I can come up with an explanation for the typewriter, but what if its is a gun? what does it mean? anything to do with riot act?

Who loves "Breath" !?!?
I haven't been here that long, so forgive me if this has been discussed before. But i've seen a lot of love for other songs, but no love for "Breath" yet!! I LOVE THIS SONG!!!! especially the part in the middle when it gets a bit heavier... Come. Here it comes. There it goes. When it comes. Where it goes. Where it comes.…

Wedding Song
My sister recently got married, and she is a Pearl Jam fanatic. She's the one who got me into Pearl Jam in the first place, so I am thankfl for that. But to get back to my point, she used Soldier of Love, from 07-03-03 in Mansfield as her last dance song. It was just so beautiful. Do you know anybody who's used any Pearl…

Gremmie out of control
There's nothing worse than a gremmie out of control! Still, it's a great song imo and I don't understand why I see so very few (if even 1) Gremmie-appreciation thread. Give it up for the gremmie. (btw, wtf is a gremmie?)

Last time a song made you happy
I just wrote on the thread "last time a song made you cry" and I figured we needed an opposite thread...because lifes like that! For me that would be Eels with "Mr E's beautiful blues": God damn right its a beautiful day..ahah! May sound strange but thats my funeral tune right there... :D p.s. Kushikushun means "Lets be…

New Album
Sorry if this has already been talked about, but here's my theory on the new album cover/ album booklet inside. I think it really has to do with the government in this country. A lot of people don't know well enough, ut the government is unstable and very evil on the inside(hence the crazy artwork for the booklet) So,…

Release
I am listening to Release right now. It has been a while since I listened to it. I can just really relate to it right now. Its funny how a song written by a complete stranger can relate to someone else so much, amazing. Such a great song...

~Throw Your Arms Around Me~
I love this song, sadly i didn't get to hear it on this tour, but I love this song and heard it on the boots. To those of you who have heard it, you are truly lucky and blessed. :) Lately, I had this song on my mind, which is really strange and yet nice. Longing for that someone that you truly care for and just want to…

PJs greatest lyrical CLICHE or ZEN mantra ;)
I love cliche's...most of the time they present simple truths that can have a great impact on my attitude or the way I am feeling. One of my favorites that is used in I am Mine is: "I know I was born, and I know that I'll die, the in between is mine.." So, on which one do you dwell upon from time to time....? For a none PJ…

Last Time A Song Made You Cry ?
For me it was "Around The Bend" . On the way home the other day I had it on, and thoughts of my mother and daughter flooded my head as the lyrics buffeted and wrenched a few painful tears from my eyes.

The importance of music, specifically Pearl Jam, for me...
Hello all, I just wanted to post a brief comment about the effect that music has on me. As Jeff says in SVT, music is "one of the most healing art forms" and I totally agree with him. For me, listening to music is a way to get away from my daily worries, and I'm lucky enough to like bands that have put out such a diverse…

Tell me why Jeremy is pearl jam's worst song ?
There's a thread were you can list your favs and least favs from each album. And there are a few people who named Jeremy as worst song...!?! Why? I can't understand it because I love the song and I love it much more since I saw Pearl jam playing it live... so why say it is the worst song?

Pearl Jam college course
Do you have to be a professor to teach a college course? My dream job would be to teach a class about the only thing that i am really passionate about, besides my kids :) , pearl jam..the lyrics are intense and meaningful. They should be broken down, line for line, word for word, just a suggestion. Tracey

new interpretation of Black
Hey guys, I'm writing an assignment on Pearl Jam and during my analysis of Black I came up with a different view on the lyrics. As many have noticed the first line "Sheets of empty Canvas, untuched sheets of clay" refers to art objects, so I figured that the lyrics might actually be about an artist. With the line "Laid…
