  • That’s incredible. Best song on the record so far that I’ve heard. Obvious who the song is about. Pretty direct. Can’t begin to understand what it would feel like to lose a brother and best friend within a year of each other. Life can be cruel sometimes but music can make it better.

    Music is great, lyrics are wow. Kind of first draft? Feels like he’s spitballing. Less poetry. Interesting.

  • Today is my brothers birthday.  He passed away several years ago from an opioid overdose.  We saw quite a few shows together.  The fact brother the cloud came out today is stars aligning or something and hits so hard but so needed.  Thank you Ed.

    A recent interview mentioned they did things quickly, not a whole lot of time for ruminating on things.

  • Best song of the 3 so far and I love Long Way. 
  • I love the song but can't help but feel like it could do with some editing. I'm sure Eddie has his reasons for putting out what seems like a raw cut.
  • Why don’t you do better?

    I'm sure it was edited to fit exactly what he wanted. Writing, recording, mixing & mastering is quite the process.
    I LOVE MUSIC.

    I was being sarcastic. Someone said the song needed editing so I said why don’t you do better. I never quoted it . I think the song is great

    Ah - hence why the output seems different than usual.

    Agreed. Especially compared to Gigaton where it seems like he put a ton of time into the lyrics. But for Ten he wrote lyrics quickly - is the tank more empty these days for quick writes?

    Why don’t you do better?
    Obviously we are not the artists here. But we can provide commentary as the consumers. Also I’m just comparing Ed to Ed - certainly seems rougher.

    I’m allowed to not love it!! And feel like he can do better!

    You are allowed to do whatever but the song is getting a lot of positive feedback and I just thought your comment was negative but if you can do better than you should write a song. That’s all, we all have opinions.

    Everyone can have an opinion.. cmon guys its all good in the hood. Mine is that song is sick. In that I include words in lyrics, flow, and the instruments all weaving together. Now, someone else said its obv who its about. Is it agreed among the PJ elite that song is about Cornell?

    Combo of Cornell and his brother I would think. 
    This show, another show, a show here and a show there.

    Don't think it was about Cornell. When Brother The Cloud was released, Danny Clinch posted an image of Ed & Chris together on his social media pages. They are now all taken down. So guessing it was a mistake & not about Chris.
