The video is up on YouTube on Pearl Jam Vevo's channel so I guess it really is the third single.

Pearl Jam is the only band I'll spend money on.

I’m going with

Who Ever Said
SBWM
DOTC
Alright
Seven O’clock
Quick Escape
Take The Long Way
Buckle Up
Never Destination
Comes Then Goes
Retrograde
River Cross

I Can’t believe how much hate SBWM Never Destination & Retrograde is getting.

Whilst confused to how much praise Alright & Buckle Up is getting.

I think Who Ever Said into SBWM is perfect. Never Destination isn’t perfect but makes the toes tap and Retrograde is a nice ballad.

Quick Escape should of been the second single is my only complaint

No more songs, no more singles. Gonna hold out.

Tool had the right idea w/ the last album: one song, album out the month following
We still make records to be listened to — not that everyone will listen to a record track one to twelve in a row or side A or Side B — but we still make 'em in case somebody does want to listen to it like that, that's how we make em…

And on Spotify. Wtf surprise single?
What do you think about the song?
I'm yet to listen to it. Also, I'm in 2 minds about listening or whether I wait until Friday.

I'll sleep on it now and report back tomorrow.

I'm very glad I've already heard it. Waiting is up to whomever, but I don't see any gain personally. Could argue about the quality of the leak, but tihs is no leak.
