    ...Pearl Jam, a group filled with pride, passion, and intricate musicianship. Their music is full of subtle textures, rich color, soul-searching power, imagery, and eerie dissonance.

    Does the song off of the single have to be an A side or can it be a B side track???

    You're the only one who can't forgive yourself
    Makes much more sense, to live in the present tense

    which ever one had "Black, Red, Yellow" on it as the b-side. I'm too lazy and tired right now to go look it up. I just remember in high school playing the crap out of that song.
    I’ve seen Pearl Jam 25 times, Eddie Vedder 9 times, and Brad once.

    that would get my vote. but I have always thought of this as a two song EP. ;)

    so with that being said, I have to go with Given to Fly :D

    The best PJ song ever, "I Got Id". And it's "Id", not "ID", as in...

    "The id is part of the id, ego, and super-ego, the three parts of the psychic apparatus in Freudian psychology." - Wikipedia

    Also think the Jeremy single and the Hail, Hail single both are killer vanilla (rad)!

    I really like the NAIS single. I had never heard music like that, and the fact that it was NEW pearl jam made it more meaningful. I remember buying it in my last year of high school and my friends and I marvelled at how intense it was.
