and i love on Live at the Showbox when he pushes himself up on the balls of his feet to make himself taller as he sings that line.
i love ghost.
actually, i'm going to edit this post to note that i don't know if jeff or ed wrote that line, since the credits on the album have the lyrics written by Ament/Vedder. i just assume that ed's beef with advertising was coming thru on that one.
I love this one and was hoping to see it live, but I only made it to two shows this time around and they didn't play it. Thank God for boots
My favorite line
My senses gone awol awol awol awol...

When i first heard riot act, this song was the stand out for me along with save you. I think along with i am mine these 3 songs are vintage pearl jam. Suprised at the lack of play it got on the riot act tour but one hell of a rocka!!!!!
Great topic! I loooooooove this song! Im listening to it now from The Showbox 12-6-02. Ghost has been on heavy rotation for the last month or so. I hope that it gets played more on the next tour.
Its on this part right now:
love is deep, dig it out
standing in a hole alone
working for something that one can never hold
a place in the clouds
good place to hide oh my oh...
Last summer I got an incredible glass pipe I called the Cropduster. I passed out on a hammock, it slipped through the mesh and shattered into dust. As a going away present I got a clear dark blue and blue striped one, its been christened the 'Ghost'. The name isnt original but the song deserves the honor.
I agree w/everyone else and say this song is HIGHLY underrated. I think it is truly a gem among the other songs on Riot Act. Great song, I haven't had the pleasure to hear it live.
SHOW some LOVE for GHOST!!

LOL omg it does!!! What in the world is going on there? haha. That's hilarious. Another Eddieism to add to the list.
well if someone is described as going awol, i think it means they are going mad.. like loosing the plot. Im not too sure if thats how you spell it though.
and i always thought it was like a-wol :S
"My senses have gone"... AWOL
SO YES THAT WOULD MAKE SENSE - MY SENSES ARE GOING MAD!
I dont think it makes sense. I think you're giving him too much credit. :eek: hehehe.
*EDIT* Wait a minute! I've been listening to that part over and over and I think you're right. I always thought he was just making random Eddie noises. I think it does actually make sense! haha. How cool!
