    THANKS GANG.
    I would celebrate our momentous joining by making badges but something tells me that a "sleeping by myself club" badge would never be worn :lol::lol::lol:

    Love the title of this thread :lol: I dig the full band version also, wasn't a big fan of it on the Uke album, but really like the full band version, love that guitar sound on there.

    I like both versions, really think Pearl Jam can use this one to hit up the country market

    Am I allowed in the club if I like the song a lot, but not on the album Lightning Bolt? :P I think this would have made a great Xmas single.

    Or better yet, a B-side to one of the singles from this album.

    Remember when they used to do singles with non-album B-sides?

    Definitely like the song. And since I think I listened to Uke songs, maybe one time, it's effectively a brand new song for me.

    I respect that some folks aren't thrilled that it is an alteration of an existing song, but I do not believe that anything got bumped for it. I.e. if SBM was not put on LB,the album most likely would have been 11 songs like Backspacer. If that perspective is true (which of course no one but the band knows) than it eliminates any reason to hold a "grudge" against SBM. :)

    But damn, it is a catchy little tune for sure.

    Ok, I think I might need to revoke my membership becauase I can't get this darn song out of my head :lol:

    I do hope they play it on Leg 2. I'd perfer this over Future Days.

    I started a new thread about this without realizing theres already a similar thread. Here's a copy of my post:

    I know this is easily the least liked song off of Lightning Bolt by the majority. Somehow, the band seems to know this because they haven't played it live. I think Speed of Sound fell into the same category during the Backspacer tour.

    I personally think the song is absolutely stunning. Love the lead guitar part (not sure who's playing). It makes me feel like I'm in 50's style Hawaiian resort.

    So PJ, don't be ashamed of this one. It turned out great. Play it!!!

    It's good, kind of sounds like a Christmas song too (a little bit)

    I really like this song. Don't understand the hate or even dislike of this version. If anything, it shows the weakness in the Uke only versions. I said it before, if the Uke version was labeled a demo (which in effect it was) folks would love this song and be thrilled it was finally officially released. Can definitely see its place in the live rotation instead of Setting Forth at times.

    And it's not like this hasnt been done before. Can any child of the 80s forget Don't Stand So Close To Me '86? :crazy: now THAT was unnecessary.
    Sorry. The world doesn't work the way you tell it to.

    I liked it a lot since first listen. The production is awesome and I love the guitar tone. Ed communicates the lyrics beautifully too. I'm in.

    Me too. Why all the hate for this song a few weeks ago? People need to chill out. Pearl Jam can put whatever song they damn well please on their albums.
