Eddie Vedder - Flag Day Soundtrack

[Ms Harmless]

just downloaded this; I likely have no interest in the film, but I think I'm gonna enjoy the soundtrack

[Ms Harmless]

I really like some of the ad-libbing choices Ed is making lately

"My Father's Daughter" is emotional in ways I wasn't expecting today

Gorgeous song.

I love the production on the soundtrack. Suits the songs real well. Intimate.

[Monkey_Driven]

There are 4-5 really strong tracks on this.

Nominated for an Oscar. Overdue after he got snubbed for ITW

Your consistency is impressive. Oscar worthy, even.

Listening to this now. Tender Mercies is a really good song.

First time I heard this I felt that the Cat Power songs were the strongest. Now I mostly want to skip them if I hear the full album, and removed them from the Eddie Vedder setlist I've got stored. Tender Mercies however, is a real highlight. Better than at least half the songs on Earthling.

wave, tender mercies, and flag day are my top 3. olivia’s songs are really good too. i didnt realize until that jason bateman podcast that they were intended for cat power

[Anders]

Rather Be Home is one of the highlights for me.

I wasn't crazy about I'll Be Waiting, but it sounds great here

For me, one of the things that initially drew me to Ed's singing was the ad-libs. It's all over those early tracks (Alive outro, Black, Jeremy, etc.); those melodies that have no lyrics, per se, but all us diehard fans know them inside out.

Off the top of my head, I feel like there's been less of that in recent years and I wonder if it's part of the reason some of the more recent stuff up until Gigaton was a bit meh.

Seeing Ed still rocking military shirt jackets brings me such joy.

In high school, my girlfriend said once: "I like when he meows." But I was never able to get her to point out an exact instance of what she meant.

I love "I'll Be Waiting", not sure why, just love it

Chad is killing it

[liebzz]

I love I’ll Be Waiting on Flag Day. Actually my favorite song on there.

[Anders]

That is a good performance. Really shows that the songs from here, have come out at the same period for Ed.
