Just curious if people felt this song was better or worse than ‘Can’t Deny Me’?

[Ms Harmless]

I've been open and honest about my precarious mental state on this site, and that I come here for friends and escapism

I have always, for years, said that you take me as I am, as a human being, or you don't get my friendship; I am not about the ribbing, the joshing, the roasting, and the "loving" bullying; I've never had a shtick except for fake cis guy

I think a member of this site (any member, not just me) should be able to say "have at it, with anyone else, and I'll celebrate your mutual enjoyment of it; but that behaviour depends on mutual consent, or *it is bullying*, and I don't consent"; everyone I know who knows and loves me (and I am polyamorous, so that's four people in a romantic basis and even more on a friendship one) respects that about me

I will snap when I feel cornered and bullied, it is what it is, but I've never been anything but honest

intention isn't irrelevant when it comes to how we treat others, but it isn't everything either; I will not admit to an innate flaw in my character just because my feelings are hurt; someone did that, whether they meant to or not

Oh, so much better. CDM is at the botton with Future Days.

Probably got deleted by someone experiencing post-traumatic stress from the mere mention of dogshit CDM

Monstrous Dickhead, now that's a song title.

And a medical condition

[Ms Harmless]

it's kind of amazing that you'd paint my evaluation of that as "my unique personality"

most other people, at least here, take trag's behaviour as fun ribbing and you don't, and you already admit to having to explain to your friends you are sensitive to it. There's nothing wrong with being unique and friends should respect friends' special needs and boundaries.

so are you going to?

I didn't say "flaw"...

I agree that trag has represented himself poorly and that if he had better intentions, he'd show more respect for the boundaries you have illustrated very clearly.

I'm only offering a little more: that you find it in your heart to at least try to understand where people like him might be coming from, to help give a little more benefit of the doubt. Not for his sake, but for yours.

This song is way better than Can't Deny Me in this fan's opinion.

Super happy for Watt invigorating Ed the past couple of years.

Really wish theyd just hand the raw tracks over to Josh Evans though!

he is doing a mix!

not sure they will be the raw tracks and if its going to be any different. I think he's just doing his thing so that it works in Spatial Audio.

No question its better than Can't Deny Me. CDM is a bottom 5 Pearl Jam song. While Running aint great and arguably isnt as good as anything on Gigaton, it is easily better than at least 2-3 songs on LB.

Pretty good summary of things

[blueviper]

I bet "Of the Earth" was going to be on the album, then at the last minute, they swapped it with this.

Official lyric video? I like the lyrics, love the phrasing, but holy shit no way he ever nails this live.

really?

I'm certainly enjoying Running more than most of LB and parts of Giga. It's not a great song by any stretch, but it is fast and fun to my ears.
