I can totally get enjoying it live. I like Boom's piano. I like the song structure. But the lyrics... are difficult to stomach on most days. Some days I'm feeling sentimental enough to appreciate them for what they are, but now I have this... this is my slow jam.Dugg wrote:Inside Job is definitely better live - I saw a nice darker version in Chicago that really changed my mind on the song.WtOB? wrote:i like em both!harmless wrote:Even now we have Sirens?

Re: Lightning Bolt - October 15
waiting for the kids to go to bed to give the video another listen and hear the good sounding copy of the song. I am definitely prepared to say I like this song, and while I don't love it nearly as much as many of you seem to, it does warm my heart to see so many people gushing over new pearl jam..

As someone else noticed, the flip is the best bit
Ten or so posts about how they hate it
Five about its ok
2 admitting its amazing.
It's quite a butterfly effect chrysalis thing.

So I should just shut up about my opinion? I'm hardly the only one here who doesn't like Inside Job, dime. Not a single band member in PJ is a poet so that's pretty irrelevant.dimejinky99 wrote:Harmless, I'm in the majority here

But as I say, I don't hate it, I just don't like its lyrics except for on days when I'm feeling particularly sentimental. Thing is, Sirens will work for me even when I'm not. I'll be able to sit outside in the street considering whether to throw myself in front of a bus with this song in my headphones. That's not Inside Job.RisingTides wrote:There is more kindness on the internet than we would care to admit to ourselves.

I think S/T might deserve another listen at some point, definitely. But I'm considering Backspacer practise and experimentation for this one...stip wrote:Now we get to see if s/t enters its cocoon one backspacer from the trash heap and emerge a beautiful binaural/riot act
