Totally agree with Brendan O Brien.......SIRENS BABY!
It is one of the greatest PJ songs ever......In fact.......I think it is one of the greatest songs of all time.......Unbelievable with this band......But on the flipside......I just love all of them.....but Sirens is amazing......I do not think any band that has been around for 22 years had come up with a masterpiece like this one .........PEARL JAM FOREVERAFTER!

"..That's One Happy Fuckin Ghost.."
“..That came up on the Pillow Case...This is for the Greek, With Our Apologies.....”
Sirens is the epitome of blind loyalty and fanboy-ism(?) of this band (along with Ole'). My God you are all fucking nuts to think this is a good song, let alone a song this band should be associated with. For fuck's sake....
Ole I agree with, but I genuinely love Sirens. Look forward to it every time I listen to Lightning Bolt. I agree with OP. Cheers!
Woot....or better..Ole!!

Or maybe we just have different tastes? I'm not a fanboy- I hate the bands stands on merch and ticket prices, I acknowledge that the first five albums are better than the last 5 released, I don't like when a member acts like a crybaby on stage, I despise Ole (as well as a few other songs), but I LOVE Sirens. Lyrics are fantastic and ballad style music is good too.

Well, No Code *is* their masterpiece... in my opinion.
Sirens -- I was repelled at first listen -- not even "meh," plain old "WTH?!?" It's a devious beast, though -- it sank its claws into my brain after just that first listen, and now I enjoy it. I am not sure how it will hold up over time; I can see it going either way with me.
Now, Yellow Moon, *that* is a lush, amazing song.
It's almost voted out at the moment.
Will see
I'm going more with the flip side of this argument. The "Sirens" hate is more the product of the modern blog/message board mentality. If it's popular, too close to mainstream, not retro enough, out of the comfort zone, etc, etc...then it's cool to hate it. "Oh PJ is being played on the radio again? I hate that song. But you should hear the performance of Bugs at the Philly show in '09!!! I'm cool enough to know that song!!!"
I think you have me confused with someone else. I just thought I would finally make a comment in one of these many psychotic posts about how awesome this song is - this band could literally put their feces on vinyl and most of you people would eat it up.
A troll who felt the need to shell out 20 bux to access to posting on the board?
done
agree 100%. a lot of these same people would have been trashing Daughter in 1993 because it was too light or mainstream and not the 2nd coming of Even Flow or Alive. and can you imagine the shit storm if they released Better Man under today's environment?
:thumbup: That about sums it up (minus first five better than last 5) for me too.
If you don't like it, who gives a fuck, get over yourself.
I agree. It may be grandiose or whatever, but I enjoy it, I think it's beautiful, and, if you don't like it don't listen to it. Art is subjective.
No Binaural! No code is second.
I can't do sirens Man. I was punished though. Went to get a beer during sirens and had to run back because they played a top 5 (In My Tree) next. So yes PJ, I love sirens as long as you play Long Road at my next concert.
Oh and dissident is good in small doses, ha ha.
You don't care for a song, you don't have to listen to it but there will be no hate campaign here.
I enjoy the shit out of Sirens while understanding that not everyone agrees with my connection to it. It's the same with PJ themselves. Some people like them, some don't. Don't incite anger over an opinion. I'm all for spicing up the forum every now and then but....
BTW I love the last five albums, but I ranked all ten of them a few weeks ago, and they just happened to sort out this way.
