I love sleeping by myself. It's one of my favorite songs on Lighting Bolt. It's full of a playful brave smile sadness and one of their best love songs. But it's not Animal.

Arc always disappointed me. Wordless Eddie vocalizations are one of my favorite things, but this feels like a gimmick, despite the real sentiment behind it.

Aw man, I wish Sleeping By Myself could survive in this tournament for a little bit longer. One of my favorite PRAMG songs. I'd love for them to do more in this style. What a lovely little song. I remember all the reports from the listening parties wondering if this is supposed to be a joke. The arrangement is a little different than one would expect from Pearl Jam but I think it's great.

Vote for SBY just because Animal will win anyway.

I know. That is what is funny. All the other matchups today he is voting for the crappiest song. Then out of nowhere he votes for Animal here.

I consider myself a defender and promoter of SBM but Animal is a magnificent beast of a song.

Yerp.

I would have voted Sleeping BY Myself against a lot of other songs. Just not Animal.

I think it's funny that the online recording guide lists Arc's working title as "Aaahh Hnnaaa Aaeehha"

I may be one of the few here, or anywhere, that think SBM is better on LB than Ed solo. It's a fine song, and one of just a few I like on LB, but it ain't Animal.
