116. Chinese vs. Comatose

[stip]

[Strat]

I swear every time i've seen this song live they crank camerons drums up in the mix. And i fucking love it. Pummeling.

Great song. Comatose.

[stip]

Instrumentals don't usually do much for me, unless they are something special. Chinese is...fine

Comatose is a spikey middle finger in all the best way. Searing lyrics, maybe Eddie's best political commentary of the era. Great raw energy, awesome solo, and Eddie's best growly performance since DTE. 5 star song, probalby

[Jaeti]

Comatose is fantastic.

[Chris_H_2]

Comatose is Pearl Jam finally succeeding at forced punk. Love it.

Comatose is Pearl Jam finally succeeding at forced punk. Love it.

Hey that’s a good description

[Strat]

It was the song they had to write after the VFC tour and all those punk covers they did.

[Higgs]

Chinese is nice, Comatose is great.

[PHATJ]

Not a huge fan of Comatose, but every now and then it hits just right and I can totally get why some people love it. I can’t remember what the other one sounds like.

[EJ]

Crapshoot Rapture easily wins here.

[epilogue]

I almost want to abstain. These are both throw aways. Chinese I guess because it's not violently offensive to my ears.

[Anders]

Chinese is cool.

[Anders]

Comatose is one of my least favorite Pearl Jam songs.

[epilogue]

Comatose is one of my least favorite Pearl Jam songs.

Same. Nothing about it works for me. Hell, Is rather listen to Habit on repeat.

[B]

Pearl Jam supposed to be a rock band. Gotta vote for the rocker once in a while. Comatose.
