So many merch threads. Thought this would be an unusual way to discuss some Pearl Jam music.

What do you think is the Best Side 2, Track 3 on a Pearl Jam Album

    I Am Mine
    For lack of a coin, I flipped a Post-It notepad with I Am Mine written on one side and Insignificance written on the other, and I Am Mine came up. :lol: Those are two of my favorite PJ songs, and it's like Sophie's Choice for me. I do think that a live version of Insignificance is both better than the studio version and a better song than I Am Mine when it's live (I felt SO lucky to see it live in Vancouver 2013, and it was fucking spectacular!). But I have more of a personal connection with I Am Mine and the sentiment behind it. So they break totally even in the end.

    Unemployable is a gem on that album. Rats is killer too though. I do like every other option but not big on them. Garden is probably my least listened to of the choices

    MFC, of course.

    The only truth I know is you.

    amongst the most underrated Pearl Jam songs, did you know that the largest supply of nuclear weapons in the United States is 20 miles west of Seattle, so this song becomes more relevant as our world governments unravel

    And Boeing was still based in Seattle when the song was written, and they make military planes.

    I Am Mine. Some excellent songs for us to choose from.

    Seattle.
    Has nothing to do with anything, just felt like adding it in.
    Seattle, baby!
