Ghost...i get nothing from that song...and its not a "weird" song, its upbeat, it has a solo...yet it just SUCKS
Hitchhiker really is worse, but i don't think stuff on Lost Dogs should count
oh, just remembered Gone...i never listen to that song, and when i do i'm reminded that it truly SUCKS"I'll tell you what: If all I had was Pearl Jam, and I didn't have another band in the world, I would not be worried. Because in there is the essence of making great music. You don't have to use it all at once, but it's there." - Neil Young0 -
"Gone" does nothing for me either.0

I'm really surprised at the hatred for HItchiker. I really like that tune."First they ignore you, then they ridicule you, then they fight you, then you win ."
"With our thoughts we make the world"0 -

Last Kiss. I actually really dislike it . . . I ALWAYS skip it if it comes up.
I'd rather hear Evacuation, Stupid Mop, Whale Song, Red Dot, Gremmie etc. than Last Kiss....Barrie 08/22/98

PJ has made it's share of joke songs, but for me to be the worst, it has to be an attempt at a serious song that goes very awry! So, here are my all time least fav songs:
Got Some (worst song ever by this band, IMO, cant stand it!)
Ghost
Get Right
U (it makes sense that Eddie wrote this in like 10 minutes, its weak, and the way it drags on with Eddie somehow trying to make it interesting makes it only that much worse!)I hold the pain, release me!0 -
i remember Jones Beach 2000, they played Evacuation and there was a mass rush for the bathrooms and concession stands....and watching eddie scream "Evacuation!!! Evacuation!!!" as all these people ran away, i thought "Oh..I get it now!"
maybe it was meant to be a piss break song...inside joke?"I'll tell you what: If all I had was Pearl Jam, and I didn't have another band in the world, I would not be worried. Because in there is the essence of making great music. You don't have to use it all at once, but it's there." - Neil Young0 -

Or maybe the band actually likes the song and likes playing it, despite what their moronic fans think?0 -
then they should play it alone in their rehearsal roomEvacuation Rules wrote:
