    How anyone could hate a song sung by Mr. Jeff Ament is beyond me, you should all be ashamed.

    It's gotta be:

    "Rearviewmirror"
    "Dissident"
    "Sleight Of Hand"

    The first two are so repetitive and uncreative (creativity and originality are characteristics that typically define, not lack in, a PJ song), and the last one is just so utterly boring...

    Sweet Lew - What were they thinking? They might've have a lot of fun playing it and recording it, but I never enjoy it, let alone, had fun with that song (was that "let alone" used properly? I mean, grammatically)

    Push me pull me, what is it about? is it introspective? were they trying with other music genres? were the amps out of order that day? did the guitar tech call in sick that day? Still figuring it out

    Stupid mob, they tried to make their own version of Revolution N° 9 and it didn't come out as good as expected...
    ... I am not in the business of being liked anymore ...

    ... is one of Pearl Jam's most underrated songs.

    Correct, sir.

    I didn't like RVM at all when I first heard it, for the exact same reason you mention. After about a year or so and several listens (mostly live versions), it really grew on me.

    My Three (never have and never will listen to these songs when they begin playing):

    Spin the Black Circle- hardly profound, loud, trashy, and annoying (I know many like this song... not me).
    Bugs- drunken sailors on acid make me regret having ears.
    Johnny Guitar- eesh.

    Are people serious when they suggest Rearviewmirror as one of the worst songs? Come on, Man.

    I like some songs that don't sound good or are even annoying b/c their lyrics are meaningfull.

    I mean not liking some songs that have very powerful lyrics, good stories or can paint a picture in your mind is beyond me.

    Like not liking

    black
    betterman
    off he goes
    spin the black circle

    It seems this worst 3 songs list isn't taking into account lyrics or the meaning of them....

    However after seeing the diverse amount of worst songs it is good they do mix up their set lists. :D
