    some people have morals some people have standards as well as a dictionary.

    not saying you dont but when it comes to children most parents wouldnt want there children around someone who swears because at the end of the day it reflects them as a parent.

    when vedder curses when he obviously doesnt need to esp with a song like black it comes off very amateur and would expect more.

    I'm no prude and am not the kind of person to get offended by anything really and I'm not saying it offends me but when Ed throws swear words into songs that don't have them normally it doesn't really do anything for the song and put's you right off singing along. It's also pretty inconvenient as I have to cough in the car or at home so the kids don't hear! :D

    Faithful - "through all of this fuckin noise I'm through with screamin'"
    Severed Hand - "You'll see dragons after 3 or 4 I said fuck yeah"
    Sleight Of Hand - "Trapped on a road he fuckin' knew by heart"
    There's even a version of Black with, "I fuckin' know you'll be a sun, in somebody elses sky"

    There are tons more I can't remember right now but it really does fuck all for me!! :D

    I think that's usually how I sing Faithful and Sleight Of Hand!!!! :lol::lol::lol::lol:

    Sometimes adding in a swear word make it sound better. In Bu$hleaguer I much prefer when he sings "what's the fucking ruckus?"

    My favourite has to be 'Not For You':

    Small my table, sits just two
    Got so crowded, I can't make room
    Oh, where the fuck did they come from? Stormed my room!
    And you dare say it belongs to you...to you...

    Ed's sounds fucking incredible when he's screaming that line out!

    EDIT:
    I just noticed that the lyrics on this site contain a 'fuck' that's not sung on the studio version of the song:

    With no power, and fuckin' nothing to do
    I still remember, why don't you...don't you...
    “Do not postpone happiness”
    (Jeff Tweedy, Sydney 2007)

    “Put yer good money on the sunrise”
    (Tim Rogers)
  • I'm surprised he hasn't been bashed for his drinking on stage or passing the bottle to members of the audience. In one 2011 Canadian show, he passed the bottle to somebody that just turned 15.

    I am making NO judgement. Just sayin. Some might see this as worse then some cuss words.

    well how's he supposed to know that someone's only 15? ID him while he's handing him the bottle?

    besides, it's a sip. of wine. which is much less than what most 15-year-olds (at least around here) have already tried.
    please don't start drinking organic green tea during shows, it's just not very rock and roll. :lol:

    Has anyone kept notice on how much red wine he usually drink during a show and has he been drinking too much at any shows and being really drunk so that it has affected the performances of the singing and guitar playing (other than the mtv party shown in PJ20?

    I think it's ok that he drinks some wine during the shows and that they have a good time as long as it stays controlled. I also think it's ok with a little swearing as long as he doesn't add it in too many songs.

    Quick story

    Over christmas break in high school(1997), our wrestling team had a holiday party in the gym with our families. I ran out to my car to grab LO2L and popped it in the gym stereo. We listened to the entire cd over the loudspeakers. Before Fuckin Up came on I debated stopping the disc but ultimately decided to let it play. Besides a couple of friends and myself, no one even noticed. Couldn't believe it!

    I'm surprised this is even a discussion- Ed's been Ed doing what he does and says in Pearl Jam for 20 years. It's not like it's a new thing and I doubt it is going to change now (and I wouldn't want it to).

    I know when I had my angst going on
    I really liked it, felt it somehow cleansing :lol:
    I was pretty angry 20 years ago

    now I don't really enjoy it as much cause he's a Dad and I picture him like that
    I picture him more gentle now and a different kind of role model

    that might be messed up of me I guess though
