Song of the Moment: Green Disease

[darth_vedder]

This is a great song.
It took me a lot to get into Riot Act (idk why, its a great album), but this was always a fave.

It and Ghost were, and continue to be, two of my favorites from RA.

Ghost is an amazing song, another early favorite of mine actually. These were the 2 songs I really enjoyed and felt that didn't get enough recognition.

I remember loving both, and not getting the hate. Looks like folks are finally wising up though.

You bros are way overthinking a fun-ass "Pearl Jam does pop punk with a new wave tinge" song. They've rarely sounded this fun. Turn off your brains and get on your Pogo Ball already.

4 stars.

[Biff Pocoroba]

Definitely better live than in the studio. Lyrically not their best but a fun beat not the less.

I hate this song.

especially when you're like "OH ITS CALLED GREEN DISEASE HOW DOES IT GO?" and you start it and its like "It's a disease and they're all green"

Im just like *sighs*

[E.H. Ruddock]

Lol

[Sgt. Crackpot]

AL

Another song where EV manages to squeeze in Wave references.

[PHATJ]

I actually agree with mjd on this one.

[chewm]

I don't, I love that part

[mikejasond]

Starting the song Green Disease with the line "It's a disease and they're all green" is the fastest any Pearl Jam song just completely dies right from the getgo. Maybe one of the fastest falling on your face moments in all of music.

Are you just reposting/rephrasing old posts now?

[mikejasond]

No, Im just listening to Pearl Jam and posting my thoughts. I forget what I said in the past. But I was right then too >:(

[mikejasond]

And I was kidding about all of music. But the song does make me cringe whenever it comes on and when I think of Riot Act it is the moment that keeps coming to mind.

Great song. Lyrics are fine with me. But this was funny.

[Matters]

Don’t listen to Pearl Jam.

[Matters]

You’re right though, the first line is vomit.

[Kevin Davis]

This was the first song that really grabbed me off RA. I think it's a bit underrated these days.

[Jaeti]

I thought it was amazing upon first listen and held it in very high regard for quite a while. Still like it a lot, but even at age 21 it was on pretty thin ice lyrically for me. Twenty years later, that ice has definitely cracked.

It's the start of a pretty magnificent musical run: Green Disease -> Help, Help -> Bushleaguer.

[VinylGuy]

man i loved it when Ra came out..mainly because of the bass line, i was like fuck yeah Jeff A

[knee tunes]

madison square garden live is the best dvd yes/no?

[Leatherhead]

Top 5 on Riot Act.
