Yes it is...well, of course it's not as good as Yellow Ledbetter or Black, but it's fucking close enough ..
'I want to hurry home to you
put on a slow, dumb show for you
and crack you up
so you can put a blue ribbon on my brain
god I'm very, very frightening
and I'll overdo it'
unfortunately i see this song as being the new wishlist ... think ed's gonna mess the lyrics up on this quite a bit ...
i would love to see them play this as an opener of a set either at the beginning of the concert or first song on the encores ... it's not as good when he's winded trying to sing this ...
My friend was going to see Eddie last night. Since he was in Vegas, I gave him 5 Grand to gamble with. I told him I wanted it all to go on Black. Bastard! PhillyCrownOfThorns-11-2-12
I am sure I do, but I beleive the ones you want are already mounted and framed...But take a look and see what you might want and then we can chat. I still dont have great access to my house right now, but if there is something you want, and we can work it out, we will make it work somehow!

It was immediately my favorite on Backspacer. And having heard it live 3 out of 4 (or did they play it all 4?) times in LA, I like it even better. It's pretty funny to hear people singing along with it because they/we don't know all the lyrics yet but you do hear a big GEMS AND RHINESTONES and it sounds great.
"...Dimitri...He talks to me...'.."The Ghost of Greece..".
"..That's One Happy Fuckin Ghost.."
“..That came up on the Pillow Case...This is for the Greek, With Our Apologies.....”
I'm obssessed with Unthought Known. Such an amazing song. This just may be my new favorite Pearl Jam song of all time. This song is further proof of just how brilliant Ed's song writing ability is.
Yep...Agreed.
I've been obsessed with this song since Ed sang it for the first time in Newark.
This is my favorite Ed/Pearl Jam song.
It's a feeling. You absolutely get it ...or you don't.
Here's to 5am!
Here's to Ed!
And to all you Unthought Known lovers,
you're beautiful people.
Peace,

Till there aint nothing left worth taking away from me.....
hey if i was braggin' i would have said it's even better live FROM THE FIRST ROW!!! :P :P
but i didn't...just trying to stay humble :oops:
humility is indeed quite the attribute.
good for YOU!
really?
i would never have guessed that, considering you started the thread.
This one took the longest to grow on me, for some surely illogical reason.
probably!
omg
But holy fucking hell I LOVE THIS SONG!!!!
Love the build up, and really just the warm fuzzy I get listening to it.
Love me some Unthought Known!!!
I luv it too.

Best song ever written? Nope. I have to disagree.

I've been playing Backspacer pretty much non stop since I had it and Unthought Known is the closest I have come to skipping a song...

"..That's One Happy Fuckin Ghost.."
“..That came up on the Pillow Case...This is for the Greek, With Our Apologies.....”
I love the exclamation in that statement. It hits me every time. It paints such a visual picture. One of the best lines I've heard in their music.
Yep...Agreed.
