hey guys!
what's your all time favourite line of PJ?
makes much more sense.....to live in the present tense.
a man lies in his bed in a room with no door, he waits hoping for a presence, something, anything to enter....after half my life....pearl jam came along
It's a hopeless situation and I'm starting to believe that this hopeless situation is what I'm trying to achieve.
I am so hooked on that song!
Hi,
just read in the "favourite line" thread that you said you're hooked on that song, obviously meaning "All or None". Just wanted to touch base with you because I feel the same way, this song is just the best song out. I'm listening to it now - the Benaroya Hall version just KICKS ASS!!! I listen to it a lot. If I ever heard it live played the same way, it would probably reduce me to tears. Mike's guitar solo is just superb, even the bit where he goes off key sounds good to me, if that makes sense!!
I feel like rocking up to a show with a banner saying "All or None". Dont know why they dont play it live more often, would be a great closer instead of Yellow Ledbeter.
Hope you're enjoying the new album if you have it. I've listened to it on and off for the past 3 days.
We were but stones, your light made us stars.........

The line that comes to mind whenever I see someone with the Green Disease--
"Sorry is the fool who trades his soul for a corvette... thinks he'll get the girl, he'll only get the mechanic"
Soon Forget
But I'd find it impossible to pick one favourite.
eg. "I was the fool b/c I thought I thought the world... turns out the world thought me..."
Who made up, made up, made up the myth: that we were born to be covered in bliss?
Who set the standard, "born to be rich?"
Such fine example, skinny little bitch!
Model, role model, roll some models in blood,
get some flesh to stick so they look like us!
I shit and I stink, I'm real, join the club
I'd stop and talk but I'm already in love <satan's bed>
Sorry, I guess that's a verse, but a sweet one.
Oh, also: "It's egg rolling thick and heavy" <hail, hail>
And the young, they can lose hope cause they can't see beyond today,...
The wisdom that the old can't give away
and
Hold me, and make it the truth,...
That when all is lost there will be you.
Cause to the universe I don't mean a thing
And there's just one word that I still believe and it's
Love,... love. love. love. love.
see the path cut by the moon....for you to walk on,
see the waves on distant shores....awaiting your arrival.
a man lies in his bed in a room with no door, he waits hoping for a presence, something, anything to enter....after half my life....pearl jam came along
Feel the sky blanket you
With gems and rhinestones!
See the path cut by the moon
For you to walk on

And now the question's:
Do I kill them?
Become their friend?
Do I eat them?
Raw or well done?
Do I trick them?
I don't think they're that dumb
Do I join them?
Looks like that's the one
But the strangest thing today,
So far away and yet you feel so close
I'm not going to question it any other way
There must be an open door for you
To come back
"...Dimitri...He talks to me...'.."The Ghost of Greece..".
"..That's One Happy Fuckin Ghost.."
“..That came up on the Pillow Case...This is for the Greek, With Our Apologies.....”

Once and for all I'm far away
I hardly believe, finally the shades...are raised...
oh yeah.

I can sooooooooo relate to that feeling.
and
"I'm like an opening band for the sun."
Word. Coolest PJ lyric ever.
How about "and the boy was something that mommy wouldn't wear."
"With our thoughts we make the world"
Do I kill them?
Become their friend?
Do I eat them?
Raw or well done?
Do I trick them?
I don't think they're that dumb
Do I join them?
Looks like that's the one
from "Bugs" (Vitalogy)
I would have fallen from the sky till you
and
what a different life had i not found this love with you
So far away and yet you feel so close
I'm not going to question it any other way
There must be an open door for you
To come back
unbelievable
AND
i know someday you'll have a beautiful life, i know you'll be a star in somebody elses sky, but why can't it be mine?

This is only one among so many great lines they presented us over the years.
