yeah I hate it, I have been to 4 shows post Backspacer release & it's the only Backspacer song I have gotten, and I got it twice, always skip it, it's hardly up to their standards it's little league or whiffle ball, many of the songs on Backspacer are either much more advanced lyrically or musically, I always skip it along with Johnny Guitar when I am listening to the album

Not my favorite of theirs, but it has some songs that I like a lot: Speed of Sound The End Just Breathe (yeah, it hits all the right cheese for me) Amongst the Waves Unthought Known
Got Some and Force of Nature are probably my 2 favorite, but I really like the whole album. If not for all the over play and exposure, I'd probably still like Just Breathe more than I do, but it's a good song. I really like Unthought Known, Gonna See My Friend and yes, Johnny Guitar (Watson).
It's an album I can easily put on and just listen straight through and then repeat. I like it.

Ups. Sorry. I just can't stand this record. And can't believe that some people might love it.
Its catchy. Breath of fresh air really
Totally agree, Got Some, Force of Nature & Supersonic are all totally unique songs unlike anything in the rest of their catalog
Supersonic is totally unique? Mankind called, it wants its music back.
"I'll tell you what: If all I had was Pearl Jam, and I didn't have another band in the world, I would not be worried. Because in there is the essence of making great music. You don't have to use it all at once, but it's there." - Neil Young
