I like all these, and almost love one

Inside Job: this has grown on me over the year as I've made space in my heart for the cheese that has always been present in their music. Inside Job is when it stops hiding. Plus I just want to root for Mike

Ghost: Mike does some great work on this one. There are a lot of these ground to a halt songs on Riot Act. Too many. This is the best one.

Marker: This could have been a great song, but the juxtaposition between verse and chorus is a little off, and I don't think the bridge works. This feels like three songs stapled together, and S/T's sound does that gorgeous chorus no justice.

Marker is Top 5 PRAMG for me.

But I'm going with the warm fuzz of Ghost.

All three are very solid and respectable late period Pear Jam songs.

Marker, I think.

It definitely feels right, but can 2002 be considered late period pearl jam?

Sure it is!

Can't decide between Ghost and Marker.

Ghost from St Paul is a favorite of mine. Ed was in a very salty mood and he has a bit more of a punk snarl to the performance that I love.

Marker has a lot of beautiful things going on with it though.

Hmm.

Ghost is great.

It ain't in the same tier as Marker for me though.

Inside Job is getting jobbed, so I will make a change. It’s like preferential voting, except not.

The manic vision of me laughing at a rectangle in my hands convinces the dog that she rode with the wrong species and survival would have been more plausible with the wolves.
