Why is it better than being hugged?

Because you get closer to the person!

    Anyone have a link to what they consider a "definitive" or compelling review of this song?

    And has it ever been played live?

    The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun.

    True. However whenever I listen to this one I'm left unsettled. Later in the day I'll realize that I feel disturbed and discontented and can't put my finger on why. Then I realize... It was stupidmop again! I guess that was the whole point.

    Not completely true, on March 18th, 1995 in Melbourne, the ninth song of the set was Daughter tagged with Stupid Mop (if you want to count that as actually playing it). They've never fully played it, for obvious reasons lol, but this is pretty much as far as they've gotten. What surprises me, is that they didn't use it as the intro music back when the album came out, that would have been so typically random and PJ to do, but I don't believe they ever did anything like that. Take a listen below, gotta listen closely but it's there! Eddie says "My spanking...that's the only thing I want so much" at 3:20 and continues with a few more lines before starting Another Brick in the Wall. 8-)http://www.pearljambootlegs.org/modules ... 3D&ext.m3u

    I was only going by the 'official' playlist: http://pearljam.com/music?order=desc&fi ... er_by=song

    Don't think they list songs with 'tags', but it would be kinda cool if they did.

    Yeah I see what you mean, like I said, only a tag but if you listen it's definitely there which is interesting just to know they've done anything remotely close to really playing it at all haha.

    I think it's a great tune myself. Musically it builds and builds and gets pretty groovy. The theme doesn't bother me to be honest. It was put on the album to be listened to. Maybe not as much as some of the other tracks but it has its place.

    That song is scary and weird and it gave me nightmares.

    But it's brave. And memorable. Kudos to them. Freaking us all out like that ;)

    the line effected me as a mother ...
    the only children who want a spanking are the ones who live ignored.
    Why many act out for any reaction they can get.

    Not saying that was at all the meaning just how I felt from observing relationships
    around me.

    Agreed. And I wouldn't change it as the ending to Vitalogy. It goes along with some of their first experimental stuff and is a good fit for the end of the album. I understand it not working for everybody but I like it.
