    FUCK YEAH!!! My favorite PJ song! The opening riff just kicks ass! It's the epitome of that album cover. No limits, possibilities are endless. Sounds like you should post to the Yield Fan Club and sign up. Please note the prerequisites. ;)
    No longer overwhelmed it seems so simple now.

    It's really one of my absolute favorites.

    Love the backstory we got on Single Video Theory about the little tape recorder and Stone trying to get the band to fall in love with it while Eddie tried to come up with just the right words.

    It's perfect. I'll never get tired of hearing it. Never forward past it.

    Nature's perfect song.

    I love the way In Hiding starts like a real quiet song that you have to strain your ears to hear the words but then out of nowhere this killer chorus comes in and blows you away easily my favourite PJ song
    I also is the perfect song for that album with songs like "Brain of J" and "evolution" it shows the lighter side to the album along with "Low Light"
    So in summary the song fuckin' rocks!

    For me, "Faithfull" and "In Hiding" are the highlights on "Yield".

    it is prob my fav song off of yield and it definitely has my favorite pearl jam lyric ever:

    This track is inspirational. Has anybody ever done this? Lock yourself in a room with nothing for days, no material distraction, no music, no company but your own? After only the first night, you wonder why water never tasted this good before. And yes, I agree, the first person you see afterwards can set you back 50%...

    I love this song! It builds up so well and Eddie has the golden touch on it - makes the hairs stand up on my neck!

    I bought Yield a long time after it was released and was only familiar with a couple of songs when I bought it. In Hiding was one of those songs that made me think, "Why haven't I heard this?"

    It's a great song, but did it get much radio play?

    yeah, actually it got as much or more than any other tune on yield, except for maybe Do the Evolution, but that was mostly on MTV, it is a great song and should have been in heavey rotation, and should still be to this day

    I have been playing this song A LOT lately. I wish they would play this one more...I would love to hear it live. Chicago 98 is a great version, I can't get enough of it.

    *it's been about three days now since I've been aground
    no longer overwhelmed and it seems so (fuckin') simple now <~~he adds the F word in that version
    it's funny when things change so much
    it's all a state of mind*
