I figured now is the time for a Down appreciation post.





I love this song, it's one of my favorite Pearl Jam songs, ever.
YOU CAN'T BE NEUTRAL ON A MOVING TRAIN.

    Love the live breakdown at the end of live versions. I've heard a few boots where Eddie sings the 2nd verse first (would think on accident), then repeats it again when it's supposed to be sung.

    One of the most inspirational songs I've ever heard.

    Thumbs Up.
