    ooof. Def not something I want to hear. Maybe this was ill phrased? I hope. 
    I mean yeah, if you want to go all the way negative in the blink of an eye. If they mean the way fists get pumping and we all chant yeah during Alive and you don't want to hear it then there isn't much left to be said.

    Feel like a lil kid on Xmas Eve 🤗


    Fucking great being in my mid 40's and feeling like this, isn't it? God bless this band!
    I'm 45. There's really nothing like the feeling of new Pearl Jam. 
    Like a kid on Christmas!

    Uhhh. That part during alive ISNT the chorus bub. It’s an extension they’ve cultivated while Mike solos. It’s awesome, but that’s not the vibe I get from this line in the article. 

    I get, “you can’t dennnnyyy me” chanting and cowbell. That makes me want to vomit. I hope I’m wrong!

    It would make sense that it is Stevie Wonder. SPIN mentioned one song process began during the recording of Earthling, and Stevie Wonder guests on that.

    Could be. I'm hoping for an ode to SRV as Mike has mentioned how big an influence he was to him and that he saw him a number of times in concert in Seattle back in the day.

    While waiting for Stevie Wonder to get to the studio, Ed wrote a piece of music. Pretty sure this came out of an interview with Ed for Earthling.

     Oh right! At the Earthlings show in Vegas Oct 2022, he told a story about waiting for Stevie Wonder all day! Maybe @MDZIAMA got video of that?
