this was pretty decent. Need more listens, obviously. Reminds me a bit of that better things cover from a few years ago (Ed in particular).

I haven't listened to it yet. But I couldn't help noticing the running time is double that of Pearl Jam's cover.

This kind of feels like what the last two records are. Not utilizing their skills as musicians but rather a lazy approach to bashing out a by the numbers punk rock song. They're in their 50 bows and have been a band for 25 years.

Whatever. Re just a cover. But geezes that doesn't excite me
it sounds pretty different from the original - somewhat reinterpreted, isn't it? I guess the second half of the original is pretty similar.

by the third listen I like this. It's not game changing, but it's fun. Solid holiday single level. I agree the production doesn't do it any favors - it should feel more open.

I think what I posted might be two songs on one video. Sorry.

The opening snare sound is very similar to World Wide Suicide, right?

I can't disagree with this. But that's something we've been dealing with regarding PJ for a decade now. Feels sort of redundant to keep sayint it.

Not as redundant as it is for them to keep doing it :(

Feels sort of lame when the guy who sang Save You is willing to phone it in for a decade plus.
I don't agree that Ed has been phoning it in for a decade plus, though. I think he's given several compelling vocal performances over the years.
