merkinball: more vitalogy or more no code?
Two of pearl jam's best songs were released 21 years ago today pretty much smack tab in the middle of two albums. In your opinion, would "I got id" and "Long Road" fit better on vitalogy or no code? Or maybe something else perhaps?
I'll ride the wave where it takes me......

Damn you OP!
Long road with it's simple chord structure and mellow build up and basic emotions could be on Vitalogy.
Id with its unique sound and complex grief fits more with No Code's theme.
But I can't think straight. I'm in Canada and its starting to get cold!!!
What I'd like to know is if "I Got Id" is considered a cover song when PJ plays it?

Beautiful pieces of music.
I say Merkinball fits closer to No Code and I Got Id is possibly my favourite Pearl Jam song.
On the flip side we have long road which is my all time favorite pj song. Unfortunately I haven't seen this one live since 2011.
legend has it Neil told Eddie he was up to write a song for the sessions... Ed responded by saying "I got shit"... Neil said "great, that's the name of the track"... or something along those lines
^^and yes mytwohands that is the correct story. Ed tells the story on a bootleg (can't remember which one)
