Worst Pearl Jam song ever....

No Coder

I've never liked the album version of Speed of Sound - that's easily my worst song. The demo version was more likeable

And Sleeping By Myself should never have been recorded by the band, just bad

Btw, wouldn't blame you if that was the case, Pap. Should've seen my face when I read the Comatose post.

Sirens
Last Kiss
All of Backspacer (except for Supersonic....I like that one)

Those are two pretty polar opposite songs!

Ten - none
VS - none
Vitalogy - Bugs plus all of that experimental crap that no one listens to
No Code - Mankind. Just not a good song and I enjoy Don't Gimme No Lip a lot so its not because it is Stone.
Yield - none
Binaural - Evacuation. Parts of this song are just ok while others are unlistenable. 
Riot Act - Cropduster. Just not a good song imo and a set killer at the shows I have seen with it there.
Avocado -  Big Wave. One of the worse chorus's they have "Got me a big wave, ride me a big wave, got me a big wave"
Backspacer - The album with the most duds imo. Gonna See My Friend, The Fixer, Johnny Guitar, Just Breathe, Supersonic,The End
Lightning Bolt - My Fathers Son, Let the Records Play, Sleeping By Myself, Future Days are all duds. 


Only picking 15 songs over 10 albums is a pretty good track record if you ask me. The last two albums I picked over half on one and almost half on the other. I am really hoping the next album is more solid. 

Pretty darn close! 
Don't forget about I'm Open. I'm not much of a fan of Pilate and still struggle with PMPM. I'd like to soon forget the song Soon..(sorry, I won't finish the bad pun)...Unemployable never did it for me. Did you forget to include Sirens?

Yellow Ledbetter
Sirens
The End

These are the only PJ songs in the entire catalog that I don’t like.

I feel that I've asked this question before but I'm just wondering if you've always disliked YLB or do you feel that it's just been "played out" - especially as a closer - for quite some time now?
Just curious.

Totally forgot Sirens somehow. Unemployable is not good but not terrible either imo. I like I'm Open live. It is a pretty cool intro to other songs like MFC. Pilate is an odd song because parts of it are great and other parts are awful. Soon Forget is a song that has not aged well imo and I probably could have listed it as well. Plus about a quarter of Lost Dogs could make this list easy as well.

I'll play:
Ten-none
vs- none
vitalogy- stupid mop (bugs was actually good live!!)
no code- mankind
yield- I guess pilate
Binaural- evacuation, sleight of hand
riot act- crop-duster, ghost, you are
self-titled- comatose, parachutes, unemployable
backpacer- surprisingly none
lb- my father's son, infallible, future days
honorable mention: in the moonlight

This is a solid choice as well. I almost went with it. Other than these 2 I find redeeming value in the others.
