Wash. But I enjoy the other two as well. On a different day my vote could go to Sirens.

Re: Round 1C: Wash vs. Alone vs. Sirens
Wash and Alone are two of my least favorite ten outtakes.
I actually really like Sirens.
Sirens it is.

Re: Round 1C: Wash vs. Alone vs. Sirens
I love the Dave A. version of "Alone," and have ultimately come to believe that "Sirens" does what it aims to do well. But "Wash" is wonderful -- I will go out on a limb and call it my favorite "Ten"-era song apart from "Oceans."

Re: Round 1C: Wash vs. Alone vs. Sirens
I voted for Alone even though I think Wash will probably win; they're both great songs, but Alone has a kind of near-psychosis going that doesn't come up in many other Pearl Jam songs. Man, it was hard to vote against Wash's guitar.
And god damn, people: how does Sirens have the same amount of votes as Alone? Sheesh.

Re: Round 1C: Wash vs. Alone vs. Sirens
Alone and Wash are both strong early era tracks still. When I listened to Brad's last compilation Alone stood out as a strong Bside. Stone just kept flinging them outback then.

It's kinda ridiculous really.
I've heard both live and flipped out each time. I have to say hearing Wash live was super special, though. Just elevated the whole night. I really love that song.

I might've actually considered voting for Sirens if Wash wasn't such a beauty

It is, but I think the original version from the Ten sessions with Dave K (from the leaked Sony demos disc) is even better.Strat wrote:The version of ALone with Dave A is so fucking great.
Alone is top tier Pearl Jam for me.

Re: Round 1C: Wash vs. Alone vs. Sirens
I really love Wash; the opening riff, many of the lyrics (though I don't have a clue what it means), and especially the way Ed holds back the entirety of the song, till the very end. This is one of those songs from Ten that never felt immature to me when it was played later in their career. Maybe that's due to rarity, but I think it's more that it feels timeless; I could see the song as played here living on any of their records post-Ten:
