Bracket 5 Finals: Animal vs. In The Moonlight

[stip]

God, In the Moonlight is just a boring fucking song. I've tried really hard with this over the years. I have. And there have been more than a few songs RM has gotten me to reconsider (including Around the Bend on the strength of KD. Strangest Tribe is another). But not this one. This is probably the lane of Pearl Jam I like the least

You’re a lame-o

two things can be true

Why do you hate Matt songs so much?

I love The Fixer, so I go for the Matt songs that arent cool.

And of course Get Right

If this was Pearl Jam Live Performance March Madness, I think Animal probably wins, yeah.

i remember being at a friend's house in college with like 25 people there and this was on. everyone there knew to be quiet for my sake.

I love how Jeff is jumping around the stage like a maniac and Stone is just standing in one spot and grooving

We had a big group too. We were all trying to guess what they’d play. A new, unreleased song never entered anyone’s mind. Blew us all away.

That’s why Jeff’s knees and hips are shot and Stone is in peak physical condition.

In the Carrie Coonlight

Is that anything? Anyways, I'm voting for Animal. In the Moonlight is a top 10 song, but Animal is even more of a top 10 song and it needs to win this tournament.

I was saving "Carrie Coonlight" in case a pun run broke out in the White Lotus thread.
Not sure it completely works though. Would you be able to tell it was a play on "In the Moonlight" without the "in the"? The syllable count works but I'm not totally confident

Crazy Carrie

[Chris_H_2]

in the coonlight is still peak rm for me

[Buby]

The groove though.

Spoiler: show

[Jorge]

It's musically a pretty tricky song for Pearl Jam. Every instrumentalist who isn't Matt needs to really concentrate to get it right. But it's worth it, because it sounds great.

Another vote for "In the Moonlight". Jorge's Law continues to apply

[wease]

What is Jorge’s Law?

[Jorge]

For March Madness and similar song-vs.-song tournaments, I offer

Jorge's Law

The more people declare in thread that they're voting for song X, the higher the likelihood that song Y will win

Fuck yeah. Highlight of the weekend for me.

Hmmm

It's musically a pretty tricky song for Pearl Jam.

This... Tricky enough to be interesting while avoiding the too tricky for its own good type of song trope.
