Here's what I went with:

1. Tonight You Belong to Me

2. Just Breathe

3. Longing to Belong

4. Future Days

5. Society

6. Last Kiss

If I was going to include, Last Kiss, then I could stick to just five. She came into town this weekend, so I gave her the CD.

I'll report back on her thoughts on the songs, and if her opinion of Ed's voice changes or not.

Not necessarily Pearl Jam. Only 2 are. 1 Eddie. And 2 covers

I would have gone with
Hard to Imagine
Better Man
Nothingman
Daughter
All Those Yesterdays

I guess the thread title should not had PJ in it. The whole point was to give her great examples of Ed’s voice, not turn her into a PJ fan.

Perhaps an Ed solo show could be in her future. Maybe now you give her the Into The Wild disc?

I think I was lucky enough that she actually would listen to 5-6 songs. A whole album, that's a different story. She's not really a music fan, more into NPR
