Starting to really dig Ed's delivery on the chorus "Mind your manners!"

Again, said it elsewhere, this is a great song to listen to while at the gym.

Switched from love it to like it. I think it's a more accurate vote. When it pops up in a playlist it is quite enjoyable but I don't have a very strong craving to want to hear it. I do like it better than a good portion of Backspacer so it still has me excited about LB.

Its a great song, full of energy and Eddie´s delivery is really good. Wish the guitars were more present though..sound too Backspacerish to me.

We're moving to the point where people realise it has little shelf-life and tiresome. Give it another 2 months before you all hate it like me.

Putting it in context with the past 3 PJ albums I assure you I won't ever hate it.

I have an unfortunate feeling
I've been beatin' down
I feel like I'm done believing
Now the truth is coming out
What they've taken is more than a vow
They've taken your innocence and they threw it in a burning pile

All along they're saying - Mind you manners!

I caught myself believing
That I needed God
And if he's out there somewhere
We sure could use him now
Trying my patience? My patience's tried
This world's so lonely that it makes me wanna cry

All along they're saying, mind your manners!
Someone's saying!...

Self-realized and metaphysically redeemed
May not live another life, may not solve our mystery
Right around the corner could be bigger than ourselves
We could will it to the skies or we could something else

Go to Heaven? That's swell! How do you like your living hell?

I'm still liking this song.

I played it for a guy who's not too into PJ...he likes the first three albums, and his favorite song is SOLAT, and he enjoyed MYM.

it's ranked #78 in play counts for Pearl Jam on Last.fm over the last 6 months, between Pilate and Breakerfall. And ranked #8 in Pearl Jam songs played over the past week, between Yellow Ledbetter and Daughter.

I skipped last week because it seemed like too much number need to do it that often. Tomorrow is the end of the fourth week, so I'll do it then.

Also I've been runnin around town recording songs, so.
