Animal will be the clear winner so I voted for ITM.
Im good with any of these winning

Even though I'm voting Animal here, this is another description of it that captures why it's not an elite song for me.Kevin Davis wrote:I can.

"Animal" is tremendous, but in the end this just isn't the side of the band that's kept me coming back for all these years. It's probably not even in my top 50 honestly. Which isn't meant to be a slight against it -- there's just a lot of other Pearl Jam music that's more closely aligned with my tastes.
Easy vote for "Moonlight."
Yep. I'll hold this ground with you, Kevin. "Animal" is a great piece of powerful ferocity, not the least of which is the way Jeff's bass hangs and growls there near the ending. But I still went with "In the Moonlight" because that's more the band that was really "my band" at the peak of my fandom.Kevin Davis wrote:I can.
