Mount Rushmore of _______ is a cliched topic but a fun one to think about. And yeah, this one would be a candidate for mine too.
its good for when you cant pick one single "favorite" anything...like pearl jam songs.

When Ed sings "
but if logic is a tree" when performing this song live, is he possibly referring to this?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Issue_trees
I've wondered this for a long time. I haven't heard these called Issue Trees before, only just now that I search for a wikipedia page for an easy example, I believe they're most often called Logic Trees or Truth Trees.

Wow! That was fast, and I didn't expect TC...

Tremor Christ is phenomenal. It has been my favourite for a long long time though initially I wasn't taken by it. Took a few weeks of the studio version to sway me.

What's better... IMT or TC?
EDIT: Both are on my 5* shelf, but I guess it depends on the mood.

TC without a doubt.
But this isn't the place for such talk.

Not only is In My Tree my favorite Pearl Jam song. It's also in contention for my favorite song of all time by any artist. I fucking adore that song. It means the world to me. It just cuts me to the bone. I consider it a damn near perfect piece of art.

That's high praise... Glad I saw it live with Jack back in '96...
