Song of the Moment: Of the Earth

Post by E.H. Ruddock »

Old thread here.

http://archive.theskyiscrape.com/viewto ... 1e&start=0

Not going to do a write up, but of all the songs Pearl Jam has done, this is the one that I wouldn't know what to do while listening to at a concert. It just feels... awkward.

It's a novelty bc it's never been released. If released, even more people wouldn't care.

I can see this going the Hard To Imagine route and getting released via some random avenue just to get it off their plate

Invalid Comparison.

"Hard To Imagine" is good.

Of the Earth has never felt like a finished song. 2 stars because I kind of like some of the instrumental section.

It might make the top 40 of the last 10 years, if they've released fewer than 40 songs.
