yeah, this one is climbing for me. It’s the closest you get to Yield without getting your eyes wet.

This is probably my second favorite after Setting Sun now. It just keeps getting better for me.

I've heard the album like 20 times and had never heard the "Go!" At the end.

I hear it more on one particular mix. I've listened mostly on Apple Music, but I've also played a bit with the EQ settings there. Not sure which exact combo of streaming platform and settings makes it most audible, but I love it when I get it.

One time it sounded more like "C'mon!", but either way :heartbeat:

The music is uplifting but the lyrics are pretty brutal and direct. It's a fantastic song.

You're telling me! I have at times felt that way about several of the songs on this album.

At any rate, if you are a The Who fan, this makes perfect sense as this is the first time Pearl Jam has just 100% perfectly dialed in that kind of rock and roll. And if you're not a Who fan but love this song that much, you should be!
