I really dislike In Hiding.
Lowlight is alright but just doesn't do much for me.
Pilate is a good song.

Pilate is a pretty good song.

In Hiding does have a strong pre chorus, but the chorus is weak, and the verses are some of the most insufferable in the catalog.

Stip strikes again!

Clever way to get rid of In Hiding this early, friend. Well played. I mean, I officially hate you, but... well played.

ANYWHOOOOOO...

Low Light.

But In Hiding is a VERY close second. I fucking love it so much. Pilate is also good. Just less good than the others.

Would In Hiding have had an easier time against Faithful, Brain of J, No Way, or GTF?

I was too easy on it!

Low Light and Pilate are my least favorite songs on Yield. Easy vote for IH.

Of course not. This is RM. It wouldn't have had a much better chance against Hummus or Red Dot.

Low Light I guess.

Pilate. It just has this moment.

All tied up early!

This could end up being a really good contest.

Spoiler: show: Except In Hiding. That probably won't get more than 5 votes.

Low Light is so good. I could listen to it every day of my life. Maybe I'd be a better person if I did.

Low Light and In Hiding may be my favorite 2 song run in any album. I hate to see them against eachother.

I might consider In Hiding my all time favorite Pearl Jam song so I'll vote for it. But Low Light is so damn great.

Pilate is fantastic as well, honestly.

Low Light is ridiculously overrated.

Man, I love that sweet bridge in Pilate. But it's In Hiding all the way. It's such a cathartic song.

Of course you rubes think In Hiding is better than Low Light and Pilate.

Low Light sucks

Gonna have to listen to these 3 I think...

It's Low Light. The answer here is low Light.

No one had posted in the meantime so I just edited my post. Easy peasy.

In no way is any song here a runaway, but I'll give a slight edge to Low Light. In Hiding is great, and was hovering around my top 10 for quite a while. But Low Light (similarly to Sometimes) just has an x-factor. Jeff's songs are great at putting you in a setting as opposed to a story; the music and vocal to Low Light puts me in a very specific spot every time I hear it. And it's got one of my favorite Ed vocals.
