wow, I gotta give kudos for you people being capable to list all those songs!
I'm browsing through these lists and realise I don't even know all of those PJ songs or have heard them..
but out of the songs that come to my head now:
- Indifference
- Sometimes/ Everybody Hurts (REM)
- Black
- Jeremy
and naturally many others, there's no room to list them all..
But it's weird, you know, that all those beautiful songs actually hurt. They should maybe make things "easier", you know.?
And I'll almost cry when I hear them, and then feel happy 'cause I could express my feelings somehow..
Does this make any sense?
I don't have that "end-thing" yet, I haven't had an idea for it yet.."Don't be faint-hearted, I have a solution! We shall go and commandeer some small craft, then drift at leisure until we happen upon another ideal place for our waterside supper with riparian entertainments."0 -
The "Man of the Hour" at the HOB show was excellent, and moving because Eddie Vedder prefaces the song with the story of losing one of his best friends, Johnny Ramone. "Thumbing My Way" at St. Johns #1 tore me up for some reason.There is no such thing as leftover pizza. There is now pizza and later pizza. - anonymous
The risk I took was calculated, but man, am I bad at math - The Mincing Mockingbird0 -
nutshell by alice in chains and also the spoken bit in frogs, the "7am...on a tuesday....next week ill turn 28" part is so real it feels like layne is talking to you, particularly on the unplugged album. also release and black by pj"I remember one night at Muzdalifa with nothing but the sky overhead, I lay awake amid sleeping Muslim brothers and I learned that pilgrims from every land — every colour, and class, and rank; high officials and the beggar alike — all snored in the same language"0

Man of the hour
its remaind me a good old friend.drop the hate0 -
You know you've done enough
when every bone is sore
You know you've prayed enough
when you don't ask anymore
You know you're coming to
some kind of understanding
When every dream you've dreamed
has left and you're still standing
Mama says that God tends
to every little skinny sheep
So count your ribs and say your prayers
and get to sleep
Nothing is louder to God's ears than a poor man's sorrow
Your daddy is poor today and he will be poor tomorrow
Hey, that's the poor man's house
Everybody get a look at the poor man's house
Everywhere they went before must've turned them out
And now they're living in a poor man's house
There's nothing like poverty to get you into heaven
They got alot of wine and fish up there and the bread's unleavened
Thay got alot of ears that've heard a whip go crack
Lots of missing toes and fingers and scars upon their backs
Daddy's been working too much
for days and days and doesn't eat and
He doesn't say much but
I think this time it's got him beat
It isn't that he isn't strong or kind or clever
Your daddy is poor today and he will be poor forever
Hey! That's the poor man's house
Those kids are living in a poor man's house
They walk to school with the soles of their shoes worn out
and go home in the evening to a poor man's house
Why are you chopping that wood, now?
Why are you growing that corn?
Mama's sewing a brand new shirt and
you're wearing the one that's torn
I guess it's for someone else's kid who wasn't born in a poor man's house
Hey, get a look at that house
Everybody, we're living in a poor man's house
Seems like everywhere we go thay find us out
Find out we've been living in a poor man's houseLife is the riddle
Of which we're caught in the middle.
A couple of lucky ones
Tangled up in too much love

Descending by Black Crowes
Have mercy baby
I'm descending again
Open your eyes
This time it's sink or it's swim
No sermons on ascending
No verdict on deceit
No selfish memorandum
No confusion for me
Chorus:
Curses
Curses and clues
A feast for fools
Have mercy baby
And hand me downs
It was just a few years ago
You'd hand me ups and map
Right out of town
But i would let it slide
Like mercury
Silver and quick
Poisonous and deadly
So deadly
Curses
Curses and clues
A feast for fools0 -
I have SSSOOO many. Many only by Pearl Jam as well, and you know how you go through phases of different songs being more powerful to you for whatever reason, well right now I'd have to say Light Years and Man of the Hour...could change by tomorrow though...walk the bridges before you burn them down...0

This circus is falling down on its knees
The big top is crumbling down
It's raining in Baltimore fifty miles east
Where you should be, no one's around
I need a phone call
I need a raincoat
I need a big love
I need a phone call
These train conversations are passing me by
And I don't have nothing to say
You get what you pay for
But I just had no intention of living this way
I need a phone call
I need a plane ride
I need a sunburn
I need a raincoat
And I get no answers
And I don't get no change
It's raining in Baltimore, baby
But everything else is the same
There's things I remember and things I forget
I miss you I guess that I should
Three thousand five hundred miles away
But what would you change if you could?
I need a phone call Maybe I should buy a new car
I can always hear a freight train baby if I listen real hard
And I wish it was a small world
Because I'm lonely for the big towns
I'd like to hear a little guitar
I guess it's time to put the top down
I need a phone call
I need a raincoat0 -
