Match EG: My Father's Son vs. Elderly Woman...

[Thejambi]

MFS is great.

[EJ]

My Father's Son is great.

Heavens, no.

Yeah I still don't get all the love for MFS

Sic semper tyrannis!

[McParadigm]

MFS is great.

Heavens, no.

[Thejambi]

MFS is great.

Heavens, no.

Hells, yeah.

[Jorge]

It's a Pearl Jam song that all our grandkids will know in 40 years.

uhhhh

[WaitingForBluey]

Not sure why some people on here love Riot Act so much but don't have a soft spot for MFS... it would've fit perfectly on Riot Act. Maybe their best song post-RA?

I have no fuxking clue what you're talking about

[epilogue]

MFS is, I think, one of the stronger songs to come out of the last three albums. But Small Town is an all time favorite. One of the stronger songs to come out of their entire career.

To me, it sounds like something that would've been born out of the Yield sessions. Its got a bit of Push Me/Pull Me and Brain of J to it.

Not really. I don't hear the RA connection at all. So I have no clue what you're talking about.

No "great" song ever prominently featured a tired old man trying to nut-flex lyrics this stone cold stupid:

I come from a genius, I am my father's son
Yeah, too bad he was a psychopath and now I'm the next in line

Forget the insemination
And for that, I'm supposed to be glad?

Why such betrayal?
I gotta set sail

Now father you're dead and gone
And I'm finally free to be me
Thanks for all your fucked-up gifts
For which I got no sympathy

[Jorge]

You're always saying that there's something wrong.

[McParadigm]

I tried so hard
and got so far
And in the end...

[Jorge]

As for you in your uniform, your smelly uniform, you think you can be rude to me?

[McParadigm]

You say, "Son, lets forget the past"
I want another chance, gonna make it last
Youre begging me for a brand new start
Trying to mend a bridge thats been blown apart
But you know...

Spoiler: show

...you never built it dad

At night I wake up with the sheets soaking wet.

They don't really get in the way.
