    What a gorgeous song!!!



    ÷÷÷÷ OTHERSIDE ÷÷÷÷

    it's not the same without you up here
    can't find my wheels
    your absence is what breeds this fear
    warm breath and all it steals
    you can't know how it feels to be in here
    all the dark horse fields, befriendin' me
    playin' ain't the same without you here
    we've come to hate the golden rule
    cannot seem to make the dots connect
    the morning light don't show you near
    you can't know what it's like to bleed from here
    the blackened world goes white, it goes nowhere
    oooh hoo..
    death ain't the same without you, dear
    i make the others run and hide
    new york streets seem to make it worse
    all this noise inside the quiet
    i can't hold on, the weight you bear
    my body's broken fast, please lift me up
    you can't know what it's like to be inside
    your fading melodies can't beat my need
    i'm not the same without you here
    how can i quit to be there
    sit and stare
    stare..
    begging for a prayer

    I haven't looked at this thread much. What is this song about? I don't really get it.

    *coughcoughcough....cough cough*

    The dream shan't die! :D
    3 years & counting! I won't ever stop the campaigning for this GORGEOUS ASS song that has YET TO BE PLAYED. With everything else that's been going on this tour, this really, REALLY could be the year!

    ÷÷÷OTHER SIDE @ BRIDGE '06÷÷÷

    PJ! It's time. :o
    TAKE US THERE!!!! We are more than ready!!!!


    BTW Ms. Haiku~ Jeff said that it started off being a song about his mom and dad and their everlasting, strong love/relationship...then it took a turn and became a song about his significant other. :)

    oh man, i would SO need a helmet if they did this!!!! :eek:
  • Today, as I listened to Lost Dogs, suddenly the beauty of the lyrics hit me. It's like someone said in this thread: it's so gorgeous it hurts.
    Then I looked up at the credits: Jeff Ament. The guy is turning into one hell of a writer. What a wonderful song!

    Man, this is one really old thread. Pearl Jam should play the song just out of loyalty, you think :D

    Jeff needs to write more of the songs, he adds an interesting perspective to the mix.

  • I agree, I wish there were even more Jeff songs...His lyrics always have such a strong emotional impact on the listener, don't you think? I love Other Side...it's an inspiration, it makes me slow down and remember to appreciate my husband.

    Thankfully this song has helped me master a new meaning of this phrase!

    Before hearing "Other Side", I just thought "Can't find my wheels." meant being so drunk the night before, you forgot where you parked the truck.
  • Hey Lydi!!

    That song impressed the hell out of me the first time I heard it. And it still does...If I am anywhere near you at the Bridge School show and they play a song that you call again, don't you think I'm the one that's gonna need the helmet? After the 2nd gorge show this year, I think I may have had a minor concussion after In Hiding. hehehe j/k

    I have seriously fallen for this song in the last month, such a beautiful song. It has a real dark quality to it, just the way it sounds. One of my favourites.

    "i'm not the same without you here
    how can i quit to be there"

    That lyric really leaped out at me in the last month as well, especially after I broke up with my girlfriend. Tough stuff.

    Maybe it's never been played live due to the personal nature of the song. Some songs are too close to their hearts. A great song anyway.
