    Who You Are is my White Whale song, I guess I’m lucky because I’ve caught a couple of mine over the years, but that’s the one I can’t seem to catch.  Maybe next time....
    How close have you been?

    ...and the 2009 version of Brother deserves mentioning. Got some radio play back in 2009 (I think) yet hasn't been performed since 2010 (I think).
    which is super disappointing! MYM gets played every show, what about some of these other great songs that are way better that never get played?
    Agree 100% on MYM. Play it every 3 or 4 shows and breathe some life back into it.

    How about Bu$hleaguer? It was some sort of single, no?

    (I get that it might not be "greater" than Who You Are but we can't all just answer "yes" and that's it for the thread!)
    I never meant or said that Who You Are was the correct answer and all of you should just read and not respond or add songs to the discussion.

    Brother got huge. It was #1 i think
    It was awesome with the lyrics added and they sounded great.
    It always had lyrics. They just officially released the instrumental version on Lost Dogs first
    The original version from the Rough Mixes of Ten is a bit better than the rehashed lyrics that ended up on Ten Redux, in my humble opinion (which is of course right cause its my opinion, quiet Lewbowski)

    I love the absurdity of the packaging of a lot of the old illicit boots (yeah fucker I bought this one, sue me KC and crew, it is glorious) freaking joker productions as if they were getting access from pj themselves.

    Where the Brother vocals re-recorded by Vedder (like Hard to Imagine on Lost Dogs) or is it an alternate vocal track from the Ten sessions ?

    Moline proved that the band can rock this song and should play it more. I’m guessing someone in the band really doesn’t like playing it.

    It's just that you are probably right. WYA is the biggest single that never (rarely) gets played.

    Saw Brother in 09, Melbourne.  It rocked.


    Just wanted to add that.

    Dissident has taken quite a hit lately...and didn't Glorified G get some sort of promotional release? One is lucky to hear that one these days.

    I think they were, but I can't say that for sure without a lot of the evidence in front of me.  I think either in liner notes or in the pj20 book it states that the vocals were re-recorded.  But again, that is without the stuff in front of me.  

    I don't think that HTI on Lost Dogs is simply a vocal re-record though.  I believe the version that is on Lost Dogs was a studio take done during either the vs. or Vitalogy sessions.  The Chicago Cab take was apparently with Jack during sessions that ultimately became No Code.

    MYM by far had the second most people going to the aisles at Fenway last year. Evenflow had the most. MYM is nowheres near the level of DTE and I am not a big DTE fan.

    Granted, I have not looked up towards the aisles at any Pearl Jam show (since I was located back in the arena in Philadelphia I guess) but my feeling is the crowd (tenclub area) get into it like DTE. But maybe the casuals further back has a diametrically opposite response to it. Never seen that though.

    Anecdotally - the response looks good in Barcelona (should start at the correct spot):

    MYM can be a song on fire and other times really flat. All I am saying is that it is not a song that should be played at every show and giving a couple of nights off in a row will give the song a boost imo. DTE is played at almost every show and the crowd is usually into it. Also every song looked good Barcelona. Wish I made that show. Great crowd.

    Yeah wish I had too. Never been to Spain.

    I knew it was gone in 2018. But didn't know it was gone as early as 2013. :O
