Do you really need to start a thread for every fault you find in this one poor tune?
Get over it...
yeah I agree. I'm not digging the song either. But there's already a general thread for the song and another for those of us who don't like it. I don't think we need a thread for every cheesy moment of the song........the board would be flooded.
Oh don't say that. Think it.....but say it.[/quote]
Hahahahaha!
Sorry.
I just think it's funny they called that song "The Fixer". Maybe it was one of those songs in the studio where they couldn't figure out what to call it. The whole time everyone all the guys knew it needed some work and was referred to as "The Fixer".
Stone: "Hey Ed, this song really sucks...how about we just put it on some B-side".
Ed: "Fuck, we've spent far too long on this. We gotta get it in there, but what to call it?"
Mike: "How about Steaming Pile of..."
Ed interrupts Mike: "Fuck it, lets just leave it as 'The Fixer'".
Stone: "But it's really bad Ed. I mean, those lyrics...how did you come up with that crap?"
Ed: "Drunk as shit and was listening to some Nickelback"
Matt: "This is not what I signed up for!"
Stone: "Well, it has been hyped quite a bit and our fans typically will love anything we give them....so maybe it'll work"
Ed: "That's the spirit!"

I am at work just stunned . I will always love the band ,but I can't help but laugh when I listen to this song
" If signals are crossed i'll put a little straightener on em " wtf is that? and that crazy bridge piano crap?
I have to be honest if I heard this song and it was by anyone else I would shut it off immediately , but Pearl Jam I give them a pass and try to enjoy it . I hope this is some kind of inside joke towards Target or if you play it backwards it gives you Pearl Jam back again !

Good one. I love how people are saying this song will be great live. How so? Will the music really change? Are the lyrics going to suddenly become intelligent?
I'm afraid they're actually going to add some "do-wop" singers.
When something’s broke I wanna put a bit of fixin on it......yikes
i wish eddie would've put a bit of fixin' on these lyrics.
LOL!
Seriously!
I'm pretty sure Nickelback could have come up with better lyrics than that what's in the Fixer!
Yikes!
It is pretty corny, but it reminds me of Let My Love Open the Door.. of the new songs I've heard its definitely my least favorite, but its not as bad as everyone is making it out to be. It's purposely cheesy. Pearl Jam takes themselves too seriously most times, so we can let them slide on this one.

Joe Girardi has just pulled Andy Pettite off the mound. Here comes Mariano Rivera! (cue music)
He's gonna put a-fixin' on some stuff.
And when I make some fries, I put a little ketchup on 'em. Yeah, yeah, yeah!

Jose
when something's old, im gonna put a little new on it.
when something's wet, im gonna put a little dry on it.
i could have written this song in 5 mins.
" If signals are crossed i'll put a little straightener on em " wtf is that? and that crazy bridge piano crap?

Till there aint nothing left worth taking away from me.....

It kind of reminds me of The Cure too.
You have your QT movies mixed up. You need to "Fix it".
You are thinking of Keitel's "The Wolf" from Pulp Fiction.
