That's a great song off Vs. The reason I bring this up is because I have to have a blood test done today (fasting). Now I have that song on my mind, especially when the needle hits my arm today.

    Paint IT big
    Turn IT into
    one of my enemies.


    makes a lot of sense that its "paint ED big"

    I just discovered it was "Ed" like two weeks ago :oops:

  • Blood is the new Blood.
    Ten minute version from Atlanta '94 (ie. Dissident singles)
    woop woop.
    or should i say, bow wow wow, yippie yo yippie yay.
    :D
    If I was to smile and I held out my hand
    If I opened it now would you not understand?

    I say this all the time: If Ed's voice hadn't blown out for the Summer/Fall 95 tour, this would be without a doubt the best version ever:

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UdZRkX8HaaM

    Vocally you can point to any 93/94 show (St Petersburg and Atlanta come to mind), and of course you can always throw on Self Pollution Radio and be astounded by how Ed just rips it a new one:

    One of my favorite little tidbits in the Pearl Jam canon, how Ed slips into third-person narration there for a second.

    This news to me! :shock:
    It certainly does make more sense.
    LOVE Blood, especially certain live versions. I pray to see it live someday and that Ed will still be able to do it justice if i do.

    I hope you didn't start bumping your head back and forth, while they had the needle in your arm - that could have been quite painfull... Or starting screaming: "It is my blood", when they walked off with the tubes... ;) But yeah, great song.
  • I can't believe the first time I heard this song I didn't like it. Now I so want to hear it live. I like the live version I think from New Zealand that is on PJ20. I can watch that over and over.

    Always loved Blood but when i saw the Verona 06 version on Immagine in Cornice i then realised this was the zenith of its being! Not as aggressive as the early days but a band that was so tight & taking a song to another level, which PJ have always been the masters of.

    My favorite version is the one from Croatia, 2006. It's fucking awesome IMO. It's the Atomic Dog tag/heavy breathing part that clinches it.

  • Love the song, but truly hate the soldier field version.

    That was a historic moment. During the outro, Ed destroyed his '82 Fender Telecaster (that his mom bought him after hocking her wedding ring). You know, the guitar with the "SKATEBOARDING IS NOT A CRIME" sticker on it.

    One of my favorite versions is 11/1/95 SLC, Jack Irons was in top form.
