What is Blood about?
What do you think blood is about? I always thought it was about the media, and writers in particular and how they take something that is so important to him (his music, his life etc.) and make into their own creation for profit. Creating his enemies and such. Can you guys see this interpretation? My brother seems to think…

just re-listened to "Around the Bend"
I actually like it a lot more than I remembered liking it. Well, some songs grow on you, what can I say. "Around the Bend" is a damn good song.

My husband just killed himself, and I wanted to let you know that..
he really appreciated your music. I know it is highly unlikely that anyone from the band actually reads this stuff, I just wanted to say it. He's an incredibly talented guitar player, and I'm not talking all this new Good Charlotte type crap.. he developed his own scale and everything. He can play everything. Indifference…

Ahh..brainfart... Name of the song that references living in boxes alone... The context I believe is how our society is becoming more divergant and we all live our own separate lives rather than sharing them with others... Help please.

Inquiry about Nothing Man
Hi there-- I may be on the wrong board for this one, but "Nothing Man" was a huge inspiration for my independent feature film I just wrapped called, Plan B. I wrote while listening to it, I filmed with it on my mind and now we are editing and it truly seems to fit perfectly with the main character's journey to taking…

Pearl jam's lyrics.
The words mean a lot to me, I really love them, some songs are like poems. I don't have to understand I can just dream away for a moment, the words are beautiful and thoughtful. My personal reflection is that in some songs there is a lot of pain or sorrow behind the words, but I think that the songs really are mostly about…

title: Arc
What do you guys think they chose Arc as the title of their song to those lost at Roskilde? I am curious about the symbolism here. Would much appreciate your thoughts. -Ryan

A little theory..
The beauty about pj`s lyrics, or, lyrics in general, is that you can interpret them as you self see fit. There is one interpretation that is correct, namely the one the writer intented. And the one you feel is right. I feel the whole point by writing a song is to make the ones listening to it, connect to it in their own…

Best Riot Act song?
I would say 'Thumbing My Way', but if I had to choose a more electric song I would say 'You Are' ( I love the intro) or 'Save You'.

Red Mosquito
Red Mosquito Watched from the window with a red mosquito. I was not allowed to leave the room. I saw the sun go down and now it's coming up. Somewhere in the time between I was bitten. Must have been the devil. He was just paying me a little visit. Reminding me of his presence. Letting me know he's a-waiting. Ohh... Red…

Three crooked hearts, swirls all around....
HELP! I can't get this line out of my head!!!! For two days now, this song, or this line actually, has been playing over and over in my head! It has me crazy! Anyway, the more I 'hear' it, the more I wonder what exactly this line means to people. To me, I relate to it on a personal level, that is very difficult to…

Who You Are slight lyric change on Rearviewmirror?
Ok, I was listening to Rearviewmirror's version of "Who You Are" and noticed a slight lyric change from the No Code version. Its after the line, "take me for a ride before we leave?" Something sounding like "ever lands...." anybody know what Ed is saying? I love some of the minor changes on those discs. State of Love and…

Small Town Interpretations
Hey everyone. This is one of my first posts and I guess I'll use to introduce myself to the boards. My name's Ray and I've been a PJ Fan since the beginning. Was actually a fan of Mother Love Bone and Green River in those days. Anyways, that's me and I guess I'll get to the point. Does anyone know if there are any personal…

I thought you were my friend...
Remind me, at the end of one of the songs, you can barely here the words that go something like this, "I...I thought you were my friend but I think, I think I hate you." Anyone remember which song it was. I forget.

All Those Yesterdays
This probably has been talked about many times before, but does anyone else think that there are strong Beatles influences in All Those Yesterdays. It sounds a lot like some of their stuff. Not sure if anything official's ever been said on it...just a thought.
