I hope someday that non-spoken word of Bushleager sees the light of day. The music is great, but that spoken word is horrid.

State of Love and Trust was once my favorite pearl jam song. It's a beast, but more than almost any other song of the Ten era it's a bit played out for me at this point.

I loved the Fixer from the moment I first heard it. The lyrics, the crackling optimism, the great music. There are a few points where BoB makes eddie a bit too processed, and the song could use a final verse, but it's still an overly maligned gem of a song. It's never reached SOLAT's highs for me, but right now I'd rather listen to The Fixer.

State Of Love And Trust is one of their very best early songs. Easy vote here.

SOLAT, and I know I'm kinda in the minority, but I really like the Ten Redux version with Krusen on the kit. It has more of a Crazy Horse vibe to it. The single version may be better, but I listen to the redux one more often.

I don't hate The Fixer, but this isn't hard. SOLAT, easily.

Actually like all 3 of these, Bu$hleaguer while no longer maybe relevant, came a long way for me. But SOLAT is a top 10 tune for me.

The Fixer is awful and anyone who likes it should feel bad.

Matt's demo is still really cool, shame they fucked it up:

State of Love and Trust, obv.

I love it and I feel GREAT.

But I'm voting for "State of Love and Trust" -- what a rockin' song.
