    well, I see each album as a story / theme, so....
    The only thing I enjoy is having no feelings....being numb rocks!

    And I won't make the same mistakes
    (Because I know)
    Because I know how much time that wastes
    (And function)
    Function is the key

    As a musician, i tend to think of these threads in terms of how each of the songs are written..

    and there have been some puzzlers with me thinking, "okay, those are completely different..." but this has been at the top of that list so far :confused:

    allryte man get all technical and stuff.i have been playing guitar for a while now and may not have as good ears and skills as you but both those songs imo have a similar mood when they start out,i dont know what it is,maybe the strumming pattern or its just me hearing the same vibe.

    No, i got what you were saying, the chord pattern is the same which creates a bit of a similar mood :)

    green disease & unemployable

    I have to disagree wth these two. Now this is just my opinion, but I don't see the connections here.


    "Save You" is, in my opinion, one of Pearl Jam's greatest songs. "Life Wasted" is just ok. A little bland. Both are good live though.


    I think "Umemployable" has a sound unlike any other Pearl Jam song. It is kind of like if Pearl Jam and Collective Soul had a baby. It is a really awesome song. I always thought "Green Disease" was very dull all around. My least favorite on Riot Act.
    I love my female wife...
    we sit around and wonder exactly why our marriage should feel threatened by gay marriage

    I have an odd one. Has anyone else noticed the live versions of "Not For You" and "Light Years" start out the same? Find a boot with both and listen to the first few seconds of each. Odd since they are such different songs

    i can see the relationship between unemployable and green disease.. well
    hm.. kind of haha for me, i'm a drummer. and matt has this sick part in unemployable part where he plays an interesting pattern on the ride cymbal, and in Green Disease he also has a "ride based" rhythm i guess.
    thats all i see.
    Uheard songs Wishlist:
    1. Black
    2. Breath
    3. Low Light
    4. Thin Air
    5. Oceans

    You are kidding? The verses especially. Try to think more about the singing than the music.
