II-26: Low Light vs Daughter

[Strat]

This was a very hard choice for me and I could switch to Low Light before this is all done. These are two of my very favorite songs.

I remember jamming to Low Light with you in Charlotte. Special moment right there.

Did he touch your penis?

[PHATJ]

I love Low Light, but come on, Daughter gets the vote.

This should not even be close. Daughter is a heavyweight champ. Low Light is the water boy.

[chewm]

I love Daughter but i love Low Light more.

[WaitingForBluey]

Low Light is usually pretty rough live. Jeff is usually a bit off key. The Benaroya version is ok, but that's one of the few.

I'm not considering live versions for this round. I have in other rounds, but like platy said, Low Light is one of their greatest recordings. It sounds perfect. Live, the song is a little meh... the layers and subtleties are missing. It's a studio gem, and a border dud live.

[epilogue]

This is insane. I can't decide yet. I have to think about it. This one's way too tough. I may just abstain all together.

[Birds in Hell]

Low Light kind of sucks, Daughter is perfection.

[LetMeSleep]

Come on, Joey. Do what's right.

We'll always have Ole.

These are both two of my favorite Pearl Jam songs. This is fucking tough, guys.

PICK DAUGHTER AND MOVE ON WITH YOUR LIFE

[epilogue]

[tragabigzanda]

Come on, Joey -- surely you remember Daughter from SNL? With the ad-lib tag, then the Neil Young tag? The repeating guitar lick? Other live performances have been similar...There is a sense of mystique in the back half of Daughter that is one of PJ's greatest strengths; that Lowlight, for all its charms, is lacking.

[epilogue]

Your live versions argument has no sway here, friend. I'm team chud on that score.
