    that's my favorite song from Riot Act. well it's probably tied w/ 1/2 Full. they are both incredible live. might be the 2 best live RA songs, w/ Cropduster and Bushleaguer not far behind.

    My favorite song off of Riot Act. First time I listened to the whole cd that was the song that stuck out the most.
    "I will scream my lungs out till it fills this room."

    after hearing Save You on the radio, the dj's decided to play more until as they said "we get the cease and desist letter", so they played You Are, Green Disease and LBC...I knew then that RA would be spectacular.

    This tune, i can't get my head around it. I don't understand the timing, still can't really get to grips with the verses. The chorus jumps on you when your not expecting it.

    I love this tune soo much because of the above reasons. Did i forget to say how much i love the chorus, Ed's sombre romantisicm is incredible. Well done to all that reply to the mans thread.

    Same here. It's such a sexy and smooth tune....it vaulted up to #2 on my favorite all-time PJ songs. "Thumbing my way" would be my second favorite off of Riot Act.

    Bump for this romantic song. Love the lyrics and the beautiful melody. Such passion. This was one of the first songs I heard from Riot Act, and my interest in this band grew even more.

    You Are is one of my favourite songs of Riot Act

    Cameron / Vedder best work yet.

    Beautiful lyrics.

    love is a tower, and you're the key
    leading me higher, when you let me in

    you are a tower, of strength to me
    the darkening hour, sees light again

    love is a tower, of strength to me
    i am the shoreline, but you're the sea

    you are, you are...

    That is exactly how I was. I have a lot of friends that are Jammers like myself and none of them appreciate this song. It drives me nuts b/c I think it is awesome. I'm glad to know there are others that appreciate it and love it as much as I do.
