    Cropduster is a great Pearl JAm song. One of my all time favorites.

    My favorite Pearl Jam album!.. It's close. So many good songs. Cant Keep, Save You, Love Boat Captain, I Am Mine, You Are, Green Disease.. I think it's a tie between Cant Keep and Save You. The best thing ever is the transition from Cant Keep into Save You!

    i love this album and especially GET RIGHT and 1/2 FULL... and especially live.. PJ is one rockin fuckin band!!
    Down the street you can hear her scream youre a disgrace
    As she slams the door in his drunken face
    And now he stands outside
    And all the neighbours start to gossip and drool
    He cries oh, girl you must be mad,
    What happened to the sweet love you and me had?
    Against the door he leans and starts a scene,
    And his tears fall and burn the garden green

    You know, I couldn't pick one single 'best' song off Riot Act.. This album is so incredible, and it came out at a time in my life when it was perfect for me.. There are so many memories, my greatest memories really, tied to that album.. But for arguments sake,

    Can't Keep.

    Something can't be best by far if there is something close behind it ;)

    lyrically... thumbing my way

    musically... cropduster. (mike's solos are not counted here.. writing does).

    all together.. all or none is the best. :)

    Can't Keep... Save you is a close second, All or None Third.

    But I would love to see Arc live.

    Haven't gotten to read through all the replies but my favorite is Arc. Does that qualify on this thread? If not then it's You Are, for the moment anyway.
