Your Favorite Pearl Jam Songs?

edited July 2008 in The Porch
I ask because though PJ is my favorite band, I only have 40 of their songs on my iTunes, and I'd love to hear more of them. So I figure this a good way to get new songs. Also, what would you guys say is their best album? Thanks, I wanna get back to watching V for Vendetta, I got distracted hours ago by FaceBook, which is more than I meant to type.

    Get Lost Dogs.....
    Conversations getting dull
    There's a constant ringing in my ears
    Sense of humor's void and numb
    And I'm bored to tears.......

    Oh, gosh.

    Favorite album: Yield, but Binaural is growing on me, rapidly.

    Favorite songs: Rearviewmirror, followed by, in no particular order: Alive, Release, Leash, Betterman, Daughter, Dissident, In Hiding, Given to Fly, Gone, Marker in the Sand, Inside Job, Do the Evolution, Thin Air, Present Tense, Footsteps, I could go on and on. Dirty Frank has a special place in my heart, it always makes me giggle. :-)

    You're going to get people who will vote for each of their albums as the "best." I don't think they have a "best" album at all. Each one is totally different, and all contain the best rock music you'll ever hear. You MUST own a copy of Ten though. Ten is one of those records that goes down in history. It sounds like you're a little younger- for those of us who were teenagers when Ten came out- it was HUGE it changed people's lives. It was like the soundtrack of the whole decade.

    as for favorite songs- completely hard to choose. sometimes I'll hear a version of a song that's never been my favorite and be like wow that was awesome. but if I had to choose some you might not have...

    In My Tree
    Sad
    State of Love and Trust
    In Hiding
    All those Yesterdays
    Brain of J
    Of the Girl
    Oceans
    Immortality
    You Are
    Ghost
    Wash
    Undone
    Last Exit

    Just get every album. And download some boots.
  • TT98TT98 Posts: 136
    I got their greatest hits when it came out I was only 17 so didnt know a whole lot about them, but I was hooked instantly. I then joined Ten club and bought everything they released in a 2 week span. I dont think it matters what songs u get there all good, except for maybe a few that I dont really care for, but there is something good about every album. Still waiting for that 1st PJ show though been to Eddie Vedder what was amazing but cant wait for PJ.
  • john dakerjohn daker Posts: 18
    two words... inside job

    best. song. ever.

    other runners up... probably wont show up in any greatest hits lists on itunes but are some of my all time personal favorites...

    release
    in my tree
    man of the hour
    footsteps
    down
    low light
    faithfull

    as a parting shot... you might want to download anything you can from "into the wild" by Eddie Vedder solo... it's fantastic
