    I dont care for the yeah yeah yeah's either. Makes Fixer and Supersonic way to cheezy. I'd like the songs way more without them. If I wanted cheezy I'd listen to Bon Jovi.

    eddie has really gone "yeah yeah" crazy...

    he says it now at shows when he first gets to the mic or during breaks between songs, and even puts it into older songs

    i believe he threw some "yeah yeahs" into Rival from the Philly show, for example
    "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 Young

    My first thoughts after hearing them play this in London were, "What's with the yeah, yeah, yeah songs?"

    It annoyed me right off. I do like Supersonic, though.

    when they got to the Yeah yeah yeahs on the Fixer at Jazzfest, my non PJ friend looked at me and said "wtf is this shit?" other than that she loved them.

    she reminds me of Ziggy.

    Just listened to Supersonic....it's alright. More yeah yeah yeahs.....meh!
    The problem with Supersonic isn't the words. It's the music. Go listen to mankind, they're way too similar.

    Definitely. When I heard this being soundchecked at the )2 in London (before the album release) I thought at first it was "Mankind" (the sound was fairly muffled outside the venue) but then conceded that I had no idea what the hell it was. Regardless, it's waaaaay better than "The Fixer".
