PearlJamSongRanker.com FINAL poll #24: Tracks 12 and beyond

[harmless]

I dont like Dave A on Vitalogy. The songs prior to album release that were played live he sounds great but I feel he was massively under utilized on record.

Also, where the fuck are these polls?

I fucking love Dave A. on Vitalogy. Having said that, I like that you said "under" rather than "over utilised". He's got a subtler playing style on this album than he did on Vs., that's for sure. He'd toned down the drumming gymnastics a little, which is appropriate to some of the songs (Betterman, Nothingman, Immortality), but not necessarily to others (Corduroy). Still, man, everything about Vitalogy is perfect to me. There really isn't a better Pearl Jam album in my book.

Vs.
Go (Vs., 1993)
Glorified G (Vs., 1993)
Elderly Woman Behind The Counter In A Small Town (Vs., 1993)
Animal (Vs., 1993)
Indifference (Vs., 1993)
Leash (Vs., 1993)
Dissident (Vs., 1993)
Rats (Vs., 1993)
Blood (Vs., 1993)
W.M.A (Vs., 1993)
Rearviewmirror (Vs., 1993)
Daughter (Vs., 1993)

I know a few of you may have conveyed this before, but I think this album is the strongest top to bottom. There's really not a weak track on it. I never would have thought RVM would be that low, but I guess that's how a feel at the moment. Someone a few pages back said something about Leash not getting any love and I couldn't agree more!

Second Songs:
1. Faithfull
2. Hail, Hail
3. Even Flow
4. Save You
5. Animal
6. Mind Your Manners
7. World Wide Suicide
8. Gods' Dice
9. Spin the Black Circle
10. Got Some

There's a substantial gap between 5 and 6, and then it gets real close again.

Vitalogy

1. Corduroy
2. Immortality
3. Not For You
4. Tremor Christ
5. Last Exit
6. Nothingman
7. Better Man
8. Aye Davanita
9. Spin the Black Circle
10. Whipping
11. Satan's Bed
12. Foxymop
13. Pry, To
14. Bugs

1-7 is probably my the strongest 7 songs off of any album. This one I felt is the worst to rank for two reasons: 1-4 are so ridiculously good and this album really must be listened to from start to finish no skips or breaks or repeats for the best experience.

Next ranking topic - rank all ten Track 3's.

This was the hardest for me - I have three songs in my personal top ten on this list.

The top 3 are heads above. The next 6 are pretty well interchangeable. The Fixer sucks donkey balls.
