Gloooooooooooooorifiiieeed!

I love the way Mike's CCR-ish riff locks in with Dave's drums and Stone's biting rhythm part and the unexpected upwards rush of the "always keep it loaded" bridge section.

Truth be told, I think I'd probably rank Glorified G in my top 20 Pearl Jam songs. Perhaps even higher.

I would not.

But I do like it more than many on RM seem to. It's a blistering track that I've always gravitated toward.

Picking any PRAMG song over any Vs. song is ludicrous.

I really like everything about it. Especially the chorus and how Eddie sounds in it. He does some great (and some unfortunately not so great) things with his voice on Avocado. I really enjoy his more melodic singing here. Warm, vulnerable, a little weary, a little raspy. Like honey with cigarettes. The stretch form Marker to Unemployable really showcases this.

Not when that PRAMG song is way better than the VS song, bubby.

Marker is half of a good song, but I really don't like the wimpy chorus. Gotta vote Glorified G, despite it's lyrics.

I love Glorified G. Not top 20 love, but love nonetheless.

At first I thought Marker, but wasn't sure, so I listened to em,' Marker first, it was pretty good. Then I listened to Glorified G, it was off to a really good start and was starting to think I'd vote for it, however by the outro I was kinda bored. Marker in the Sand it is.

Marker is a great tune and gets my vote here.

I understand the love for GG though, good tune.
