This song really does not sound like Pearl Jam at all though. I just can't get myself warmed up to it. The lyrics are soooo weak.
I've made this point elsewhere on this site ... I am a lyric guy. That is the No. 1 most important thing to me. You could have the best music ever made, handed down from God Himself, and if the lyrics are shallow, I ain't buying it.
That said ... I actually LIKE the lyrics to the Fixer. I think they are a little deeper than people are giving them credit for at first blush (especially the "fight to get it back again" bit). I'm not going to sit here and trying to convince people that it's the best thing Ed has ever written ... but they are good enough for me. And I have high standards.
everybody wants the most they can possibly get
for the least they could possibly do

It's about Ed fixing songs.. how deep do lyrics about Ed making lyrics deep need to be???
i'm pretty much over the Fixer and all Fixer related bullshit. Im also over hating on it. the rest of the album sounds pretty fucking incredible, and the only way they could screw up the next single would be to release Supersonic. Everything else sounds great.

I'm waiting for the anti-Fixites to show up and claim this as proof of how "poppy" the song is ...

Effin' sell-outs

I suspect that's coming up fairly soon.

They're not. They are just optimistic instead of angry or depressed.
if this does happen, do fc member get a chance to get on the field for the 15 min show?
