Now it's not.

Guess it proves at least that we still love they can bring it live. Last nights show thread proved that at least. There were more people wishing it would a trainwreck than there were those hoping it would rock is my point.

Sometimes I wonder if you read the same board as me! This song was getting pretty glowing reviews from the beginning from 95% of the posters here...

Actually, i think you were one of the few that GREW to like it over time after originally being majorly turned off by it at first listen.

Yes. Pearl Jam invented a new kind of music. It is a fusion of punk and metal and it's pronounced "mim".
No, I knew about that. I was wondering if there was something else. Lotsa pages here, friend.
Try not to get lippy with me, pal.
I would never get lippy with you, Ruddo. Chud though...
:?
Sometimes you're mean to Ruddo. Ruining his frisbees in Europe joke, and all.
Right?!

Most people here liked the single, dime. Some loved it and still do. A minority disliked it. I'd imagine most, if not all, hoped that they could bring the song to life in a live setting. They have, and everyone I've read has acknowledged that. So again... your perceptions seem a little crazy.

Sometimes I think you just really enjoy being contrary.

No, I just think he hasn't been sexed up today and/or is super fucking stoned.

Maybe it was a passionate performance I don't doubt it was. Just funny how heads here can be so easily turned.
I'm sorry, I'm just not sure what you're arguing.

The naysayers are always louder I guess. I do like it. It's not what I expected but I try stay away from it.

I guess I'm confusing picking the shit out of something with liking or even disliking it.

I'd start a 'shut the fuck up you're talking total bollox and going in endless circles' thread but the title bar isn't long enough and I don't need to state the obvious via hurting anyone's feelings:)

It could also be that when the feathers are wet they stick to his duck nether regions, which he'd be understandably bashful about. For the most part, he's quite fluffy, and his feathers do a good job of obscuring any genitalia. But when he's wet? Forget it. Have you seen a wet duck? You can see EVERYTHING.

Excellent point.

Also, when you get out of the shower, sometimes it's fucking cold.
