I wouldn't say it's a song I particularly enjoy while listening to, at least not at this point.
Perhaps I'll feel differently once I can hear it without the transcode murk, but I'm a little doubtful.

Re: Quick Escape
I don't think this song is the second coming; it's good but just not the thing I most want from Pearl Jam in 2020

This song was an excellent driving companion as I went to go pick up dinner

Re: Quick Escape
I'm more excited by River Cross vibes at this stage in my life, but this song is still 4 stars; didn't know PJ still had it in them

Son and I went on a long drive today and blasted this. It was sunny, spring warm, and everything else that's happening...
It was fantastic.

Re: Quick Escape
Definitely my favorite on this album. I get why it wouldn’t be everyone’s favorite, but I can’t get enough of this one.

This is the absolute 100% possible peak of what I ever thought modern Pearl Jam could possibly be.

Re: Quick Escape
Im just stunned by this song. Where did it come from? They haven't returned to this sound since the 90s. Where did this come from?? I didn't know they knew how anymore.

I remember smiling from ear to ear the moment I first heard that chorus.
Great, great stuff.

This is better, though. It solved the chorus problem ATW has.
