I just hope ed has come to grips with the fact that he's pushing 50, and that he doesn't embarrass himself with the vocal.

Mostly, I was just surprised to discover that this isn't already a Belle and Sebastian track, or one of the Rolling Stones' mid-60's girl hating songs.

There are maybe 6 people or bands on planet earth right now who could conceivably come up with a great song that might fit such a title. I don't think Pearl Jam are among them.

You're right. It does have a cocksure swagger vibe to it.

Imagine PJ making an 'exile'? Is it too late?

It would be nice, and gloriously unexpected, wouldn't it?

Mind Your Manners more belongs alongside stuff like Stupid Girl and Mother's Little Helper, tho.

Or My Sweet Neocon :-/

Radiohead could have a song titled this, but it would be spelled "Mind Yr Manors"

They're on the list, yeah.

As is Nick Cave.

Parents don't write those kinda songs. Parents write songs called "Mind Your Manners."

On a side note, I'm realizing tonight that there are a lot of Wayne Coyne pictures that seem to represent a lot about where I fantasized Pearl Jam going after No Code/Yield.
