“I know this song so well, I can smoke a cigarette, have a drink, brush my teeth, take a shit, and mow the lawn while singing it. But I'll only be doing a couple of those things during this version.”

Pearl Jam wrote a song about a boy who shoots himself in front of the classroom? I can't believe I've been listening to them for 20 years. What song was that, In My Tree, Ledbetter?

No, In my tree is about a girl who was instituionalized for smoking pot. Ledbetter is about the little bee girl in the Blind Melon video.

Ed explained Yellow Ledbetter at his New Jersey 8-7-08 solo gig. Ledbetter was written during the 1st Gulf war with Papa Bush. An alternative looking guy had a brother who fought in the 1st Gulf war. He receives a yellow letter saying his brother was killed. He takes a walk around the suburbs to clear his head. He sees a couple on a porch and he waves to them. The couple looks at him and doesn't know about his brother.

It's an anti oral sex song.
I think it's actually about Forrest and Bubba's first fight.
