    Of The Earth should have been in place of Sleeping By Myself on Lightning Bolt imo. I think the band has been quoted that it will never be on an album and just a cool song that they play live every once and awhile. Seems like people love this song or hate it. 
    On the Third Man record that is the shit.  HTI into OTE is amazing. 
    TMR version blew me away when I finally heard it last month (gasp) - really got a sense of the various layers and colors.

    Best version ever. And I think the closest to an album version we will ever have.

    Is there a flac version of the TMR show?  I have the vinyl, but no turntable. Yes, I am one of those guys.
    I know I was born and I know that I'll die. The in between is mine.

    I really like the song, I think it is the closest thing to a porch -esque song that they've done since Porch... I think part of the reason they haven't been recorded a studio version is uncertainty around the general structure of the song and how it should end/climax/resolve.

    I would really like this song to get the studio treatment so long as they can keep that "live" feeling and don't do a fade-out at the end. - - However, I think the band has said that they tried multiple times to get a studio cut they liked and were not able to do it, so not sure we will ever see a studio version unless we eventually get a lost dogs 2!

    I think Pearl Jam missed their shot, when this should have been on the PJ20 soundtrack. I would have dropped RVM and replaced it with Of the Earth.

    This song is almost a decade old and way overhyped. Stop wishing for it to be on the next studio album.

    It’s a fun tune. 

    I’m glad I got to hear it in Denver.

    Love it!!!  And definitely want to hear a studio version someday. TMR version is an absolute jam. It’s one of my favorite songs PJ has ever put on vinyl.

    Live I’ve been lucky to see it twice (Denver and Wrigley) and it was fucking amazing both times. It’s not “overhyped” at all. It’s so layered, heavy and they all get to show off what they do best while jamming. Absolutely love it.
