Got a book from my kids for Mother's Day. It's called "Lyrics by Sting" & it is the words to every song he has written plus a little history behind the individual songs. Kinda reads like a book of poetry. (BTW - don't tell me you don't like Sting - to each his own - that's not where I'm going with this...)
ANYWAY, my first comment upon opening the book was, wouldn't it be cool if they had a Pearl Jam book like this.....
I like listening to their music & making up my own interpretations of the songs, but I would like to hear the bands perspectives on it, what they are really writing about, why they wrote it.

Btw, Sting is cool, wanted to marry him when I was 17 (long time ago) ...
The following quote would be applied for every song:
"When I wrote "fill in the blank", it was to convey my dissatisfaction with Republicans."
The End.
