My wife and I danced to it at our wedding.

Some of the lyrics are awkward, but it all just sound so good. So good.

My wife and I had a friend play Thin Air on guitar as our exit music after we said "I do" and everyone filtered out to head over to the reception. :luv:

I love Thin Air. I view it the same way I view MFC. Neither are the best of Yield or Binaural, but both nice little gems that are undervalued.

"Undone" isn't bad or anything, it just feels a bit limp to me. And the verses still remind me of "Kids in America".

I think my entire issue with Undone boils down to this particular group of lyrics:

Can't wait for election day
Witness the occupation
Corporations rule the day


Eeeeeuuuuugggghhh.

yeah, those are not good lyrics. But the rest of the song is just so smooth, and has such a great groove to it, that I'll forgive the lyrics. Undone is probably my second favorite thing to come out of the Riot Act sessions, and maybe one of three-four songs i actually love.

Thin Air, on the other hand, was one of the first pearl jam songs I was afraid to play for people

I probably should listen to both songs before voting, but it's too early in this tournament for me to bother. I'm going with my gut and saying Thin Air.
Everything's perfectly all right now. We're fine. We're all fine here, now, thank you. How are you?
