I was listening to some of the ed only shows in 2002. He played some beautiful songs... "Satellite", "You're True", "Longing to Belong" etc.. my favourite was Broken Hearted it was really private and clinging with pain.. post what you think of the song

don't mind me, just let me be
my eyes so far away
i don't need no sympathy
the word, the word gets overplayed
i'm alright, it's just tonight
i can't play the part
i'm alright, it's alright
it's just a broken heart
don't have eyes for the world outside
they're closed and turned within
trying to find the light inside
it's lit, but growing dim...
i'm alright, it's just tonight
i can't play the part
i'm alright, it's alright
it's just, just, just, just...
just a broken heart...
“ ahh…. Yaa…. If you trust me at all… if you wanna listen to me at all… which you certainly don’t have to. Speaking from experience I can tell you that things change. You could believe me, you don’t have to. They probably won’t change, unless you make them. The best way to change something around you, something you don’t like, is.. to change yourself. I don’t think you want other people changing you.. I think.. I think.. the only person you want changing you… is yourself. So if you ain’t happy…. If you’re reading magazines about generation x’s and thinking ‘ya im one of them’ well fuck that…. Don’t let anybody tell you who you are. No… No…. No one can tell me who I am. I can tell you who I am but that would be a long story… I can tell you who I am and it wouldn’t fit in a Rolling Stone…. It wouldn’t fit in a video… it wouldn’t… its my life…. Its your life. Youre the only one that knows who you are. I hope you know who you are. If you don’t know who you are, figure it out. Cause you are some body. And Im probably stating the obvious. But I just thought I would do it anyway. So if you fell like you got a piece of duct tape on your mouth, if you feel like you cant speak. Take it off, Speak up. Speak your Mind. Shout it Out. Let ‘em Hear Ya. Shout it out…… YAAA YAAAAA yAAAAAAAAAAA.” Eddie Vedder (Porch ’96 Randle Island 2)

    I think the song pretty much captures the feeling.

    I think that faltering part...(it's just, just, just, just, a broken heart) is perfect.
