Someone posted this in another thread. Seems these guys did a pretty kick ass job of translating live.

I give them an “A” for trying something different.  I give them a “C” for execution.

I’d prefer the synth sound in the first ~20-25 seconds be removed and then remove the last ~25-30 seconds of the song to shorten/tighten it up so I don’t lose interest.  

It will be interesting to hear how it sounds when performed live.  



I'm wondering the same thing. All I can picture is how smoothly Radiohead makes this sound work in studio and concert. But this is how they have always made music (for most part). I'm just having a hard time seeing how this song will be smoothly played or transitioned to live. Guess I only have a few more months to find out. 

Great version

I don’t either and can still read it. It’s not private

Thanks @Kat!!! That’s so awesome 

lastexitlondon

That's  why  we love this band.!

nicknyr15

I just knew deep down that somebody from the band would acknowledge that cover. 

facepollution

Damn, that cover is incredible!  Everybody's pretty much spot on, but the singer's voice is amazing, bravo!

Really dig the music but not relating to the lyrics. Chorus is not my favorite. I really hope this album isn’t their Me. Roboto 

pmcgrath5

Listening to Stones interview where he said DoC is the outer edge or something like that really makes me think there won’t be too many like this on album if any at all. He says there will be “some straight rock songs” “some ballads”. A good variety as he says. Super pumped!!

Liked the music more than Ed’s vocals. The dad growl in the beginning was, meh. Thought I heard a line about boys take pills for their dicks lol. Was grooving at the end though.....

Me too was grooving until the chorus. Then it was like someone knocked over the DJS turn tables and the dancing stopped.

I have never waited so long to be punched in the face. What on earth was that!? It wasn’t music! 

Lol. It’s kind of like the Chicago Bears football season this year. The bears were all hyped and expected to be great then meh.

Thanks for sharing. Even more excited to hear the album now. 

Just love the first single-the more I listen to it!

Jammin909

The new single is great. Eddie's voice is as strong as ever. I love the new direction. It was time to mix it up a bit!!!

Listened a few more times. Like the music, just can't get with the vocals. Maybe its just the aging voice, but again... the song is ok.
Definitely will not become my new go to PJ song on my playlists.

Kinda sad how his vocals sound. He got away with it somewhat on LB but when his voice sounds like this in the studio you know it's lost a lot of it's punch. Age and smoking will do that to do. Obviously he still sounds great but it's not what it used to be. 

His voice has more or less sounded like this since Backspacer. At least here it seems like he knows his limitations. He obviously has lost some off the top of his vocal register, but that's expected at this point. His voice has changed from album to album since the beginning and he's had to constantly adapt it.

I m well known among my circle of friends to love Pearl Jam. There are many that despise pj and have made fun of me for years.  Dude who absolutely hate pj texts me today and says, “mike I cant believe I m saying this but I totally love Pearl Jam s new song.” Wtf?! Lol

I'm expecting to get lot of that from my group that also makes fun of me for being a loyal pearl jam fan

I get "mocked/picked on/made fun of/singled out" by all my friends for being The Pearl Jam Guy.  They all think I only ever listen to Pearl Jam and nothing else.  What cracks me the hell up about this is - aside from being totally wrong on that front -  they all chase the same fucking bluegrass bands at the same fucking festivals year after year after year and never listen to nor go see ANYTHING live except for bluegrass shows.  They never shut the fuck up about fucking bluegrass.  If you try to change the subject or move the conversation to another genre, they just ignore you and continue talking about bluefuckingrass. All. The. Time.

Are you me? Lol. What's funny is that while I constantly get mocked for being the "Pearl Jam Guy", I have literally never even attempted to play them around anyone aside from folks who seem majorly interested. All my friends know about my fandom is the fact that I occasionally skip town to go to a show or two with my pops.

haha, that's me too, I'm the pj guy in my group of friends. Everyone thinks I'm a weirdo, but they go to every effin dumb ass county show that comes to town and listens to it constantly! At least my band has a soul!

They're the ones that showed me that.  I'm pretty sure they're all Billy Strings groupies at this point.

me too. it was even mentioned a few times at my wedding. last summer, a bunch of us sitting around drinking, I just shouted out randomly  "PEARL JAM SUCKS" and there was honestly, literally, a massive gasp from everyone in attendance. 

it was fucking funny in how stupid it was.
