Also the song after the one that comes after Dark Matter has a lyric about a "secret" which I've seen noted before. So that could be Won't Tell, which means either the dark ballady one before is the same song, or the person recording spliced it in. Which could mean the In Hiding esque one is Upper Hand, and the person skipped Waiting For Stevie and Running. Who the hell knows lol

So, I think this MIGHT be Something Special, since it's supposed to be about Ed's daughters. Which could make the last one Got to Give or Setting Sun.

The person recording definitely skipped a few songs.
I thought Something Special was supposed to be the one that was reminiscent of "Singles era Pearl Jam"

Oh yeah you're right.

I'm curious about that one. I want to hear what Singles era Pearl Jam sounds like.

Possibly, could be wrong. My guess is that they skipped the opener, and waiting for Stevie and Running, maybe more

I was thinking the slow clip after Dark Matter is Won’t Tell but because it sounds like the very first two words Ed sings is “Won’t tell…”. I keep listening to it to make out the lyrics and it definitely sounds like he says “won’t tell”. But yes who knows! It’s fun to speculate!

hey ellis, I like it. It hasn’t blown my hair back, but it’s good enough for modern day Pearl Jam.

I will sit down.

But only because I’m tired of standing up for thread integrity.
