An example of that for me is "All Or None". I couldn't care less about that song.

And for a song that i do like but it seems most love would be insignificance. its a good song, good live song as well, but not one i love or really need to listen to all that often, though like with i am mine, i did wear it out pretty bad because i got the nais single before the album came out and listened to those 2 songs a ton
When I say people I mean Stip.I think you said it was a top 5 song for you which boggles my mind since I normally agree with you on all things Pearl Jam. All things Chris Cornell not so much.
I've only admitted this one or two other times on this board and I always fear for my life.darth_vedder wrote:You crazy bastard.E.H. Ruddock wrote:In My Tree.

I thinks it's great. Mostly for the lyrics. The song its self is a little flat and could have been more dynamic but a 4/5stip wrote:I love it way more than most, but i know I'm not the only one!bada wrote:stip wrote:people seem to not often feel neutral about FoN.Dr. Van Nostrand wrote:Not sure if there are a lot of us that love that song, but i definitely dobada wrote:People seem to like Force Of Nature.

I feel the same way. They'll come for me first, so if you see me disappear watch out.E.H. Ruddock wrote:I've only admitted this one or two other times on this board and I always fear for my life.darth_vedder wrote:You crazy bastard.E.H. Ruddock wrote:In My Tree.

And there's been no mention of Gone yet. Unbelievable. Is it that it's just so inoffensive?
btw, Parachutes, All Or None, NAIS.
I like Insignificance more. I might say I like Grievance a lot, but I LOVE Insignificance.Strat wrote:Are there really people who don't like those two songs?
stip and B probably.
Listen, if you're gonna do this, please do it a brand new thread so B doesn't have to make one for you.knee tunes wrote:I don't know. Can B just B joking?B wrote:For tommymctom, here's my least favorite in no order:

I seem to remember something about that. I think someone else did and I latched on to them because I didn't think there was anyone else.yofismom wrote:Are you the one who named it in the "most overrated" thread last summer?E.H.

Beast drumming, great intro, strong lyrics, great soaring vocal melody and delivery, driving rhythms with well placed and subtle leads, strong build up and explosiveness towards the end. This is a perfect Pearl Jam song in my books.
You not agreeing with any of the love for it part was what got me.Strat wrote:Thejambi wrote:My mind is blown.Strat wrote:I was contemplating which song best suits me for this topic. Took me awhile.

I know. i should like it but i dont.
oh yeah, you are good with the album version? i still think the demo and ed solo versions are decent, but i cant get into the full band version at all.durdencommatyler wrote:Dr. Van Nostrand wrote:Im not sure anyone likes gone though,LetMeSleep wrote:Wishlist, Just Breathe and 1/2 Full.![]()
