I went Fatal, but I might change it before this closes.
Everything's perfectly all right now. We're fine. We're all fine here, now, thank you. How are you?

It's probably not top 5 anymore, but DTE was once upon a time. Still top 10, still another song I always hope to get at a show. Biting, clever, on point, unhinged. It's just a monster song.

Fatal has some really nice atmosphere, and the lyrics are better then I give them credit for. I certainly prefer Fatal to the a bit too obvious sleight of hand. But in general I think these songs have a slightly judgmental quality to them that doesn't always sit right with me. Millionaire musicians judging people for having jobs they don't like or dehumanize them is a tougher sell that requires toeing a delicate line. Pearl Jam has a tendency to just fall on the wrong side of it. Not enough to be offensive (bracketing soon forget), but just enough to knock those kinds of songs down a peg.

Yerp. DTE is a monster. I really like Fatal, but it's not even in the same league.

I voted Fatal, love the song.
I guess it's a sympathy vote, DTE is better.
