I'm bumping this up to 2 stars. It's still easily the low point of the album, but it's not the complete embarrassment that I was anticipating.

I find this song very moving. I'm also a single parent and my son and I have a very tight bond, so no doubt that figures into it. :heartbeat:

I'm infertile, so this song does nothing for me.

I had two dogs growing up, don't have any pets now, and haven't yet heard this song.

I’ve got a gargoyle come alive and climb down the wall of the Notre Dame whom my girlfriend calls a cat and my son calls a xenomorph.

From my observations she doesn’t like Pearl Jam or music in general. Or people. Or just all things that move and breathe.

You strike me as a sentimental soul, Ms. H. That might be the key. :)

The album really tails off after Waiting for Stevie. Reminds me of Avocado.
