Aired tonight in Central Ohio (and probably other places as well.) I don't know if it's a new episode or an old one, but here's the play-by-play.

The one guy, Carl, who seems to have a fairly commanding lead selects "Requests for $800."

Alex reads the clue:

"Who You Are" by this Eddie Vedder band would really help me get my head straight.

The guy easily nailed it.

    lol Trebek would have called it wrong then during the break the judges would say it was acceptable, as has happened a thousand times on that show :)

    I don't get the "head straight" bit. Is that some sort of Pearl Jam reference?

    :confused:

    for the casual fan that song is pretty out there. But for us hardcores, it's like "oh that's easy".

    I love that one of the question writers for Jeopardy is one of us hardcores!

    Gee, wonder how he nailed it with that clue?? Not like he asks who the artist of the song is....

    is it just me or does anyone still not get the clue, or what the catagory has to do with it??
    My favorite Pearl Jam song: "Corporate Greed Boat Asshole Behind a Counter in the Oval Office"

    "I'll take famous titties for 400"


    If I knew where it was I would take you there. There's much more than this

    I remember 2 other questions from years ago. Something like along the lines of, in 2000 this band released all 72 concerts as bootlegs or something like that , and this bands second album Vs. set the record for most sales in the first week.
    CURTIS: Mike was definitely not a good drinker. He'd do stupid things: taking his clothes off, passing out, pissing in the corner.

    so i would say you've got a part
    what's your part? who you are
    you are who, who you are

    is your head straight yet...
    Who You Are lyrics

    come to send, not condescend
    transcendental consequence
    is to transcend where we are
    who are we? who we are
    trampled moss on your souls
    changes all you're a part
    seen it all, not at all
    can't defend fucked up man
    take me a for a ride before we leave...
    circumstance, clapping hands
    driving winds, happenstance
    off the track, in the mud
    that's the moss in the aforementioned verse
    just a little time, before we leave...
    stop light plays its part
    so i would say you've got a part
    what's your part? who you are
    you are who, who you are
    "...believe in lies...to get by...it's divine...whoa...oh, you know what its like..."
