    What's that song The Verve did that they got sued by the Rolling Stones? It sort of reminds me of that one for some reason. I also feel a lot of Long Road.

    EDIT: Bittersweet Symphony. That's it! A cross between Bittersweet Symphony and Long Road!

    PS: PJ better not do a video where Ed bumps into a bunch of people because Ed isn't very big. Boom better be nearby to protect him.
    Up here so high I start to shake, Up here so high the sky I scrape, I've no fear but for falling down, So look out below I am falling now, Falling down,...not staying down, Could’ve held me up, rather tear me down, Drown in the river

    It seems that the 10c staff has put some copyright claims on the song from the various news articles that were describing the link and offering a link to the music. Obviously it was accident that this song leaked, and not something that was done accidentally on purpose.

    "Better Days"
    Vedder / Vedder

    I feel part of the universe opened up to meet me.
    My emotion so submerged, broken down to kneeling
    once listening
    voices they came

    Had to somehow read myself
    read myself
    heard vibration within my cells
    in my cells

    Singing ah ah ah ah ah ah

    My love is safe for the universe
    See me now I'm bursting
    On one planet so many turns
    different worlds

    singing ah ah ah ah ah ah

    From my heart with discipline
    Put there for the teaching
    In my head see clouds of stairs
    Help me as I'm reaching
    The future's paved with better days

    I'm running from something
    I'm running towards the day
    wide awake

    A whisper once quiet
    Now rising to a scream
    I am me.

    I'm falling free fallin
    World's calling me
    Above my needs

    Oh I'm soaring
    Yeah and darlin', you'll be the one that I can need,
    Still, be free

    Our futures paved with better days

    By the way, yes, it's a Riot Act recording session outtake.

    Vibrations (plural) and then you've nailed it.

    Beautiful.

    But it´s like only vedder. Not PJ. Maybe it´s my computer speakers, but I don´t hear a bass guitar. And is that solo on a ukelele? It sounds like a mexican or spanish requinto. Classical guitar. I would be amazed of anyone in the band doing a solo like that.

    Great tune. Thanks for posting.

    --- The solo has an indian feeling to it, too.----

    Interesting, not bad, but completely forgettable. Don't understand how nuts people go over songs like this and Unthought Known. Maybe it's the older crowd, maybe you're all just getting soft. PJ needs to get back to writing great rockers. Grievance may be the last great example. Avocado came close to a couple of solid rockers, but Backspacer fell off the table. (If anyone tries to refute this by citing Johnny Guitar, your membership is revoked). :lol:

    wow!! really enjoying this song. Definately a cross between Unthought Known & Long Road (Dead man walking version). I think this is vedder only (ITW stuff) not PJ but could be wrong.
    It's Evolution, Baby!

    the song has a bit of Binaural feel to it ....

    kind of like In My Tree met something on Touring Band 2000 .... Foldback maybe ... met Love Boat Captain

    maybe not written in 2000, but sounds like the roots of this song go back to 2000

    some of the vocals sound like Into the Wild and/or Binaural ...

    This song fits in so well with Into the Wild...Does anyone think it might be a song that did not make it onto the soundtrack?
    You have to wonder how a song called "Better Days" would tie into the actual movie.


    eh...I'd say Chris lived some of his best days on the road.
    "Our future is paved with better days..." Maybe you have a point. Nonetheless, I have to say this is a beautiful song that, just like The Fixer, has really grown on me in the past few days.

    One of the reasons I love this song so much, is the fact that this is the exact song I need right now.
