124. Be Like Wind vs. Get It Back

This is a nothing matchup for me. Be Like Wind is an okay filler instrumental that I always forget the sound of. But Get It Back is pretty boring, and was a let down after how good everything on Gigaton was. I might actually lean towards Be Like Wind. I expect much less of it, but it delivers what I expect (and the guitar tones on it are kind of interesting)

[LetMeSleep]

Get It Back is better than half of Gigaton. There were the bones of a bloody good record there.

Get It Back is a fine little song and gets my vote.

I Mike.

Get It Back is good. Not sure I've ever listened to Be Like Wind and I don't care to.

[epilogue]

Get It Back. Easy.

Get It Back. Easy.

Gigaton was an unexpected delight last year and "Get It Back" was like getting dessert long after you thought you were done. It's got a lot of Matt's quirky hallmarks in the song construction and is well deserving of the comparisons I've seen to Wellwater Conspiracy.

"Be Like Wind" is whatever. An inconsequential little guitar doodle that I don't think I've ever heard before and wouldn't remember even if I had.

Great post. I really, really like "Get It Back," and you described it perfectly -- it's a song that's at once surface-level pleasurable and compositionally quirky, my favorite kind of Pearl Jam.

[Birds in Hell]

Get It Back is my favourite Pearl Jam song in years.

[stip]

that makes sense.

Is Be Like Wind that Patrick Swayze tune?

Be Like Wind is what my asshole says to farts as they go forth.
