Backspacer is in my top five...Why am I wrong?

Beats out Vitalogy, Binaural, Avocadao, Riot Act, Yield (I know blasphemy!!!), and Lightning Bolt (Only on my 4th listen).

Ten, Vs., and No Code are my top three.

What's wrong with me that I like Backspacer so much?

    You're not "wrong," everyone has different tastes.

    It's Vitalogy by the way :nono:
    Another habit says it's in love with you
    Another habit says its long overdue
    Another habit like an unwanted friend
    I'm so happy with my righteous self

    First half of Backspacer is good.....

    Second half fizzles out for me (minus Force of Nature).......

    I'm pretty sure that if you pool everyones top 10 ranking of PJ albums, Backspacer won't be top 5, however, if its in your top 5... you're right!

    Backspacer is my least favourite PJ album... and I'm right ;)

    There is no best Pearl Jam album. Someone's Backspacer is someone else's Vs. If you had ten children, they aren't all going to act the same. Some will be obedient, some disobedient, some quiet, some not so quiet. But at the end of the day, you love all your children, who are each unique in their own way.

    That said, Yield is the best.
    everybody wants the most they can possibly get
