I think it's right around my second least favorite song in their entire body of work. Certainly bottom 10.

I will duck and cover on this comment, but it more or less reminds me more of Cropduster - not bad enough to hate but not good enough to care about.
Oh, see I adore Cropduster. Probably my favorite song on Riot Act (which is my second favorite PJ album).
I love how Pearl Jam kicks around their sound on this album, and placed here, Cropduster to me always sounded like Pearl Jam paint-by-numbers.
What other songs sound like Cropduster?

Alive, Animal, Tremor Christ, Who You Are, Spin The Black Circle, Life Wasted, Of The Girl, they all sounds just like it.

my friend, who dislikes the song, has been calling it "Crapduster" for 15 years now, and still thinks it's funny

I don't particularly enjoy Cropduster, Ghost, OR Force of Nature.

UNDERSTAND
Spoiler: show
to be clear, that's not what it is for me
Force of nature is the last Jedi of Pearl Jam songs.

You just don’t get it.

Think force of nature is the only song off that record I haven’t heard live. They never played it much.

Be interested to hear it sped up almost beyond recognition in a live setting

Force of nature is better than Faithful.

There. I said it. Someone had to.

I’ll have to listen to Force of Nature again. This doesn’t seem right.

I’ll disagree. I think Faithfull is still better.

But Force of Nature sounds a bit better than I remembered. I like the rhythm guitar in it.

I think my problem is the speed. It feels a constant droning pace (in the verses and chorus). Nothing really changes. Like dime said above, would be interesting to hear it sped up.

Go to the chorus. One man stands at the edge of the ocean... ignore the lyric and listen to what’s happening around it in the music

Ok, so the music isn’t bad. Pretty good actually. I think Ed’s vocals bring this down a notch.
