    What a bummer that there's not at least some new studio recording. Loved Better Things from a couple years ago and a lot of the earlier choices, covers and originals. Slapping live recordings on there two years in a row is just lazy.

    Both of these digi-songs are brilliant.
    This release couldn't be more perfect at this point of the bands career.

    I don't understand 10c haters.

    It's harmless and a little funny but I didn't make it all the way through.

    Or a joke that they play with rappers and do private shows?
    I know, right?? Rappers?? How dare they go outside of the box that is rock! Next thing you know they'll be collaborating with Cypress Hill and putting it on the soundtrack to a shitty Emilio Estevez movie! Then what will we do??!!

    I think they are both very weak. Was just hoping for something much better.

    There were way too many incredible performances of songs new and old to throw something like that on a Christmas single. Disappointing really.

    I hate to say this, but a lot of people in this thread seem to be displaying a similar sentiment... so... i guess it's my turn to be the PJ/10C defender...

    ... What a bunch of spoiled rotten brats we are to be complaining about the fact that an annual single is "live" recording and not a studio track...

    Most bands don't release even 1/2 the live material that PJ makes available... For this reason we're now going to complain about the release of special material and call it lazy cause it's a live recording? There's obviously still a lot of work that went into this product for us... just the setup that went into making the recording possible is probably more work than 1/2 of us do in a year.

    Fact is, the 2 tracks on this single will probably never be released via any other medium, so the band and/or 10C decided to make them available to us via this method. that's their prerogative.

    Hate it or love it, but don't call it "lazy" just because it's a live recording. this band is anything but "lazy" when it comes to bootlegging and making live material available to us.
    Houston, Texas... Believe it or not, there are 7 million people here... must be a couple of fans who'd love to see you play.

    OK I listened. So it's Jeanne Tripplehorn singing Shattered as Julie Andrews. Uh... Does this even count as Pearl Jam? I guess Eddie does the shidoobies.... but uh...

    But man... Ain't Talking Bout Love would have been so much better to have on a 45.

    Better Things has been one of my favorite songs to listen to the last year or two. Love it every time I hear it. Maybe my favorite Christmas single, though I still have a soft spot for Someday at Christmas, Santa God and Olympic Platinum. :)

    ummmm, they played WMA for a while before Jay-Z came out, but this single starts with only Jay-Z... it's a cool single but they cut out half of the experience! You can barely even tell that it's WMA the way this is presented.
  • I can live without it. That's about all.
