    for me they would be:
    in hiding-dont ask why i just love it
    hard to imagine
    man of the hour
    small town
    yellow ledbetter

    EDIT: just because i have this name doesnt mean faithful is my favorite song. i wanted lyrics as my name and thought these worked together nicely. it is one of my top songs but probably not my top five if i could never listen to any others.

    In this order:

    1. Go
    2. Long Road
    3. Corduroy
    4. Of the Girl
    5. Breath
  • Indifference71Indifference71 Chicago Posts: 14,872
    This would prob change from time to time, but right now I would say:

    1. Black
    2. Come Back
    3. State of Love and Trust
    4. Present Tense
    5. Ledbetter
  • indifferentmanindifferentman Goshen, IN Posts: 731
    probably hard to pin this down but:

    1. Indifference
    2. Sometimes
    3. Untitled - from Live on Two Legs
    4. DTE
    5. ?

    The top 3 have pretty big significance to me, DTE is a must have, and I'd have to say 5th would all depend on what my mood is at the time. Mainly because as I'm sure the rest of you could relate to, PJ's music has been a "Soundtrack to my life", and different songs have tended to capture the moment at different points.

    Damn, that's tough. # 1 is easy, after that much less so. But off the top of my head.

    1. Black
    2. Hail, Hail
    3. DTE
    4. In Hiding
    5. Porch

    But other than Black at the top, I could give this more though and probably have a total different next 4 as there are so damn many great PJ songs.

    Considering I have 108 songs rated 4 stars or better (out of 5) on my iTunes right now of Pearl Jam, (and thats just their studio albums) and I have the every song on the V/S album rated 5 stars this is a tough one. I'll give it a try.


    I got ID - favorite song- everything else is in no order.
    Immortality
    Not for You
    Tremor Christ
    Yellow Ledbetter

    What kind of island only allows 5 songs? Do they only have cassettes or 8 tracks or something?? Anyways, these would probably resonate the best on an island:
    Alive
    Breath
    In Hiding
    Insignificance
    In My Tree
    Change don't come at once, it's a wave, building before it breaks.
