Hope this hasn't been posted, but I've never heard of the Rockline story before.

    It's in a paragraph:

    The song dates back to an October 18, 1993 appearance by frontman Eddie Vedder and bassist Jeff Ament on the radio show Rockline.[1] Jeff Ament wrote the song's music and plays guitar on the song. Vedder improvised the song's lyrics.[1]

    Jeff Ament on the song:

    Ed and I were told to be in a studio on Capitol Hill around the release of Vs. to be interviewed for Rockline. I brought my guitar hoping to show everyone why I was the bassist...two bottles of real cheap Cabernet later,...we were in the middle of our interview during a break when Ed asked if I 'had anything,' and if so, what key was 'it' in...so what you hear is the one time only version of a song we had constructed on the spot fueled by a couple of riffs, a page of notes, and the almighty red.[2]

    It's on the Lost Dogs booklet!
    “Life is life everywhere. Life is in ourselves and not outside us. There will be men beside me, and the important thing is to be a man among men and to remain a man always, whatever the misfortunes, not to despair and not to fall - that is the aim of life, that is its purpose.”
    Fyodor Dostoyevsky
