Thirteen Favorite Pearl Jam Songs
Thing is, Pearl Jam does not make very many videos so I’ll have to do a mixture of youtube fan videos and the official ones. This is in no official order, my favorites change from time to time. In six months this list may look different.
1. Release
2. Grievance (so very relevant today)
3. Do The Evolution (my favorite video ever)
4. Long Road
5. Corduroy (Live because to me, this song is sort of the soul of PJ live)
6. Bushleaguer (they took a lot of heat for this song – guess what, artists get to have an opinion too. If you disagree, that’s your opinion – ain’t America wonderful?)
7. Crown of Thorns (god I love, love, love this song)
8. Inside Job (this one is going into the “always on my favorite list” status)
9. Indifference
10. Insignificance
11. Army Reserve ( this is a fan video and it makes me cry every time I watch it.)
12. Whipping – I couldn’t find a good video of this one although I have to say the live footage made me smile because I was at a few of those shows. “Don’t need a helmet, I got a hard, hard head, don’t need a raincoat I’m already wet”
13. Nothingman – I’ve been to a number of PJ shows. I’ve heard some rarities I’ll never forget but for cripes sake I’ve never heard this one live. Gah! Anyway, another fan video but I wanted the sound quality for the lyric clarity.
Very good songs on the list!

by Charlene July 5th, 2007 at 12:55 pmUm…I’ve heard of Pearl Jam. I guess that’s a start. I don’t recognize any titles. I’m off to explore a couple of the video links…

Do you hate me now?
by Lorelei James July 5th, 2007 at 1:41 pmI am not a huge fan, but I love reading about what others think of things and looking at them in a new way. Thank you.
by Nancy Liedel July 5th, 2007 at 2:27 pmI’m not a big enough fan to know more than Nothingman; are the others from their albums that didn’t get a lot of commercial notice?
I’ll always admire them for taking on Ticketmaster. And I’ll always be sorry they lost that one, too.
Happy TT, Lauren!
by Susan Helene Gottfried July 5th, 2007 at 2:43 pmCan’t say I’m a big fan, but it’s always great to see what other folks are listening to.
by N.J. Walters July 5th, 2007 at 2:57 pmI don’t recognise most of those.
Thanks for the tunes.
