Whatever song wins here needs to win it all.

I just don't get the level of love for Hail Hail... it's good but It isn't the best!

Man, I don't really give a shit about either of these songs. I guess I'll go Hail, Hail b/c it was the first Pearl Jam song I ever heard live.
Everything's perfectly all right now. We're fine. We're all fine here, now, thank you. How are you?

Hail Hail is a much better song gentlemen

Brain of J is a great example of a certain type of Pearl Jam. Hail Hail is the best type of Pearl Jam. It would be a deserved winner

I've listened to these songs 3 times a piece and am still having trouble, but I am leaning Brain of J. right now.

Just one piece of the pie, but Jack's work on BoJ is just, sha-wing.

I just listened to both twice and I genuinely love them equally.

That said, for the distorted slide guitar accents in the left speaker at 1:12 and 2:28 (the latter the closest the band ever came to a woozy, Swervedriver-esque moment), I'm giving this one to Hail, Hail.

Gotta go with Hail Hail because Ed turns "relieved" into a 3-syllable word in Brain of J.
