Songs you want to see Pearl Jam cover

[warehouse]

basically any Talking Heads song

Have you seen/heard this ??

I have, and love it. Would love to see the whole band do that, Life During Wartime, or Road To Nowhere.

pearl jam isnt funky enough to do Life During Wartime

felicity's surprise

[warehouse]

we should make a rule that all suggestions cant be grunge-related or classic rock. this thread would barely get past 2 pages.

with that said, they should cover mudhoney and the doors.

I don't think I want to hear Pearl Jam cover anything new at this point. Basically because of the way Ed sings. Even when they nail it, like they did with Mother, I still can't get passed the breathy-ness and warble of Ed's voice. Plus, when they nail a song like Mother, it's just a straight on version of a played to death classic rock song, there's nothing special about that.

If I want them to cover something I want it to be a little bit out there. Even if it's a pretty standard song in terms of it's arrangement, I don't need to hear them do another Who or Neil Young or Pink Floyd song. I'm thinking more along the terms of Timeless Melody from the 2k tour. But even then, I don't know how much I'd enjoy it the way Ed sings now.

If Pearl Jam evolved they way I wanted them to, and they way I thought they were evolving in the early aughts, I'd have a nice little list of songs I'd love to hear them perform.

As long a they stop covering "Know Your Rights" I'll be happy.

Too Drunk To Fuck.

id like to hear them tag the last 3 minutes of grand funk railroad's 'i'm your captain (closer to home) on the final leg of a tour.

bell bottom blues by clapton

[Let's all laugh at Rangers]

Du Hast

[Coach]

Enter Sandman.

[Brainof23]

My favorite cover to date is I Believe in Miracles.

I would love to hear Poor Girl.

If I could pick a Soundgarden song I think they could rip up 4th of July.

Ever since Limp Basket butchered if, I thought they should play Behind Blue Eyes.

Ain't Talking Bout Love was cool and I think they should let Mike have his way more often.

Since I love making lists- here are my top 10 PJ covers I have seen live.

10. Waiting on a Friend (6-23-06, Pittsburgh, PA)
9. Kick out the Jams (10-3-04)
8. Soldier of Love (10-21-01)
7. Can't Help Falling in Love With You (10-22-00)
6. I Got You (9-5-00)
5. Chloe Dancer/Crown of Thorns (9-11-11)
4. Love Reign O'er Me (6-24-08)
3. Ain't Talkin' 'Bout Love (5-15-10)
2. Baba O'Riley (9-02-00)
1. I Believe in Miracles (10-22-03)

Hard to leave off RITFW, Fuckin' Up, I've Got a Feeling, and Timeless Melody).
I didn't consider tags.

So, what's the list for say, 2001 pearl jam?

i hate how ed didn't do the 'ooh oh ooh ooooh oh ahhhs' at the end of waiting on a friend. would have made it a top 5 cover for me

[VinylGuy]

Beast of burden again....River of deceit would be amazing.

[EJ]

As a one-off, I've always loved their cover of "25 Minutes To Go."

[Chloe]

Chelsea Hotel No. 2

[Jorge]

As a one-off, I've always loved their cover of "25 Minutes To Go."

The first time I listened to this I couldn't enjoy it because I was so nervous, all the way through the song, about when Ed was going to mess up the lyrics.

He messed up the count a few times. Doesn't take away from the performance for me though.

I'm also really digging their DC 2004 cover of "Masters of War." Might be my favorite version they've done.

Chelsea Hotel No. 2

Ugh, breathy Vedder would destroy this.

[Chloe]

Chelsea Hotel No. 2

Ugh, breathy Vedder would destroy this.

No way. I listened to it earlier and it's perfect in my head. Don't ruin this for me, chud
