    I feel like I’m not in on the joke. The best song on Backspacer isn’t better than the worst song on Ten. What’s next? Gonna See My Friend vs Rearviewmirror? Got Some vs Lukin? The best song on Backspacer is Speed of Sound. I will say that any song on Backspacer is better than Mankind. But the sound of explosive diarrhea splattering the bowl is better than the sound of Mankind so the standard isn't that high. I’m not smart enough to get the joke that is this thread. 
    Peace,Love and Pearl Jam.

    Imagine that in 92 unplugged rather than the mediocre version of Black.  What could have been...

    Peggy Lee's lyrics in her version are strong too. But if I'm going Guitar, I'm going with PJ"s Guitar. ALL DAY. 

    Johnny Guitar
    Play the guitar, play it again, my Johnny
    Maybe you're cold but you're so warm inside
    I was always a fool for my Johnny
    For the one they call Johnny Guitar
    Play it again, Johnny Guitar
    What if you go, what if you stay, I love you
    But if you're cruel, you can be kind, I know
    There was never a man like my Johnny
    Like the one they call Johnny Guitar
    There was never a man like my Johnny
    Like the one they call Johnny Guitar
    Play it again, Johnny Guitar


    OR

    Johnny Guitar
    Johnny Guitar Watson staring at me
    Riding on 3 wheels, a woman on his knee
    With a leg under the red dress I wish I could see
    Further North the warmth of lovin' lingering
    Now Johnny he be having lots of women
    Oh the reason he'd be smiling known to him
    On the left the girl in red so innocent
    Never sheds her clothes even when she goes to bed
    Yeah the type of girl responsible for original sin
    Can't help but wonder where and who she is
    Oh and the memory's always getting clearer
    First thirty years and more I've loved her so
    But now I need to know why she's with him
    And I sleep with the light on in case she comes
    And I sleep with the light on in case she,
    Recently as I was waiting on a dream
    She came to visit lost and lonely me
    Oh she leaned over the bed and with…

    I'll never forget the first time I heard Lukin live on a broadcast.  Recorded it off the radio and listened to that song over and over.  Awesome song!
