I think this one will be close.

Any post pearl jam song after Riot Act has people who will vote against it on principle.

Of The Earth is one of the most over rated songs in the catalog.

I still voted for it, though

I legitimately prefer Sunburn to Of the Earth. That might've changed if we'd ever got a full-on studio album version of OtE.

"Sunburn" is a sweet song. I wish we had a good quality version of it.

Of the Earth. I don't really like either song.

OtE is ok, I can hear the potential for a good track, but Sunburn is very catchy. I love it.

I'm having a hard time with this one. Is Sunburn really PJ, or pretty much just Stone?

It's a No Code outtake, so it's Pearl Jam.

Jorge will be happy that I didn't call it a Yield outtake by mistake.

It's a nice song overall, real catchy chorus... but I just can't get past that "o hymn o hymn" part.

yeah, that takes me out of the song before it really gets the chance to get going.

Plus I just don't like it very much when stone sings.
