but this one song is blatantly ripped off.

Do you really think they sat down and consciously copied Devo’s material? That’s what blatantly ripped off would be.

So they might be similar . . . but not intentionally copied as you suggest.

is Get Some (or Got Some) the same song as what is being called The Fixer?

or

is the The Fixer another new song?

Got Some actually blatantly rips off the Fixer.

Sarcasm. The found comedy of message boards.

I was actually blatantly ripping off George Carlin.

Listen to Devo's "Gut Feeling" AT LEAST until the 2 minute mark of this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YievWIX9AKk

They sound similar because this clip is actually pj dressed up as Devo doing an early version of Get Some/Got Some :-) What is the real name of this song? Get Some or Got Some?

I didn't think this would get me so pumped up..!! I love it!!! Right into my veins!
The performance aside (not that it was bad, but the sound etc..), it is a great song!
I needed it...
I wish I could make out all the lyrics...I need to know!!


Edit (lyrics without repetitions):
Every night with the lights out
where you gone
What's wrong?

Every time you can try
but can't turn on
a rock song

I got some if you need it

Get it now, get it on, before its gone
Let's everybody carry on
Carrying on
Turn it up, set it off, before its gone
Let's everybody carry on
Carrying on

This situation, which side are you on?
Are you on the rise, are you falling down?
Let me know.....c'mon let's go yeah

I got some if you need it

This situation, what side are you on?
Are you dropping bombs, are you getting out?
Have you heard of diplomatic resolve? Yeah

Precipitation, which side are you on?
Are you drying up, are you a big drop?
Are you a part of fool detrimental?

Got some
Carry on

Good stuff man, thanks.

Thats funny . . . and might be the case, but do we have two songs being talked about or just one?

is Get Some (or Got Some) the same song as what is being called The Fixer?

is the The Fixer another new song?

Seriously

edit: two songs . . . got it . . . thanks!

No, Got Some and The Fixer are two songs. The Fixer reportedly is what the band plays in an upcoming Target commercial.

Nice to know . . . . thanks!

I love Devo and I love Pearl Jam. It was great to see Ed in a Devo shirt for the Paul McCartney/David Lynch benefit thing back in April.

kiljoythemerciful

Can't stop watching the peformance, it's great. I guess ed is a little winded, but watching it in HD with my soundsystem turned UP, it fucking rocks.

and unless your the dude who shook the first gourd all music is connected. In this case I don't see anything blatent...its not like Vanilla Ice and the extra note.

edwho

New music! Nice!! Can't wait to hear it live :!:

Keeping with the precipitation theme, I think he closes with "Are you a puddle full of detrimental?" He definitely says the word "puddle."
I have to think he may have messed the lyric at the end, I can see the album version: "Are you drying up, are you a big drop in a puddle fucking detrimental?"

Thoughts?

Either way, I love the lyrics to this song. Ed sounds skeptical of Obama throughout. Are we continuing this war in Iraq or are we sending our boys home? (Are we dropping bombs, are we getting out?) Is the storm almost over (drying up) or are you just another part of it (big drop)?

I think the "some" that Ed has is COURAGE. If Obama doesn't have the balls to reverse Bush's policies, then Eddie's "got some" he can have.

Even though everyone might not love Riot Act and S/T, you have to admit that the lyrical progression of these three albums is going to blow us away. A trilogy based on historical perspective. RA, S/T and Backspacer will be very fucking interesting in 50 years time.

yeah, the songs sound somewhat similar but, "Got Some" is a much better song, and Peal Jam looks much less ridiculous than Devo performing it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zQj6vI_LX9g

This might be a post for the Moving Train, but if Ed is already jumping ship on Obama five months after publicly pimping him for President ... then Ed is being a jackass.

And I didn't even vote for Obama.

I have to think this song is about something more general than that ...

Doesn't sound like he's jumping ship, just holding this president to the same standards as the last. I definitely didn't expect any sorta anti-Obama tune this album, though.

I like the vibe. Stikes a chord in me similar to Sugarcult's 'Los Angeles.'

Again. Give the dude longer than a couple of months.

Looking at what I think the lyrics are, I don't think this song is *only* about Obama, or the war ... I think it's about something bigger, broader and more general.

TheLastRockStar

sooo does anyone know when this comes out on itunes? or even when the album comes out?
I'm pretty behind on Pearl Jam news sorry!
