Regardless of who invented it, Vedder brought the yarl into the mainstream: sure, Staley was doing it earlier,

So was Jim Morrison.

This is kind of the point. That article uses best for "white born after 1960" and all time as "since 1989".

Dennis Rodman Sings ‘Pearl Jam’ Karaoke in North Korea



Upon arriving in North Korea for his third visit, Dennis Rodman, the former professional basketball player turned
“friend for life” to the country’s mercurial young leader, was treated to a “gala supper” of seafood and chocolate
cake, followed by an evening of karaoke with the state minister of sports, said a spokesman traveling with Rodman.

Rodman, in the country to train the North Korean national basketball team, has became a unlikely (and significantly
pierced) face of Western engagement with the country’s young dictator Kim Jong-un.


Rodman “was very relaxed and excited to be back [in North Korea] to see old friends,” said Rory Scott, a spokesman
for Paddy Power, the British sports gambling site that is sponsoring Rodman’s visit.

Following the “intimate dinner,” Rodman sang a karaoke version of a Pearl Jam song, while North Koreans in attendance
sang patriotic songs.

Rodman and his entourage have been put up in a luxury hotel in Pyongyang, the country’s capital.

Rodman’s visit is the third since February, in which he first met Kim, the country’s 30-year-old supreme leader and avid
basketball fan.

The visit comes on the heels of the young leader’s first significant political purge, in which he executed his uncle after
accusing him of drug abuse, womanizing and attempting to foment a coup.

Ahead of Rodman’s visit, Shin Dong-hyuk, , the only person to have been born in a North Korean concentration camp who
escaped to the West, wrote an open letter to Rodman reminding him that “It’s your right to drink fancy wines and enjoy
yourself in luxurious parties, as you reportedly did in your previous trips to Pyongyang. But as you have a fun time with
the dictator, please try to think about what he and his family have done and continue to do.”

Paddy Power’s Scott said Rodman had no idea whether Kim would meet with him as he has in the past, and that visit was
apolitical.

Rodman is training the North Korean squad in preparation for a friendly match he is organizing with other former professional
basketball players to be held sometime next year,

“This is not political, it’s a sports exchange,” said Scott. “Dennis really believes sports can play a big roll and some good
can come out of this visit.

Spoiler: show

Not strctly PJ but there's a sound system advert in the UK that I saw the other day that has the Dead Boys version of Sonic Reducer on it....


I don't think there's a less clean studio recording of a song ever released so it's a bizarre choice. Well done Sonos (or whatever the product / company's name is).

Yeah, they have that commercial in the US too. It's really bizarre. But then again, the last Sonos ad that got a lot of play here had Janelle Monae & Deep Cotton dancing to Deep Cotton's "We're Far Enough From Heaven Now We Can Freak Out," so apparently the people making their commercials just have some pretty cool tastes.
