This is probably the lane of Pearl Jam I like the least
You’re a lame-o
two things can be true
Why do you hate Matt songs so much?
I love The Fixer, so I go for the Matt songs that arent cool.
And of course Get Right

If this was Pearl Jam Live Performance March Madness, I think Animal probably wins, yeah.

I love how Jeff is jumping around the stage like a maniac and Stone is just standing in one spot and grooving

We had a big group too. We were all trying to guess what they’d play. A new, unreleased song never entered anyone’s mind. Blew us all away.

That’s why Jeff’s knees and hips are shot and Stone is in peak physical condition.

Is that anything? Anyways, I'm voting for Animal. In the Moonlight is a top 10 song, but Animal is even more of a top 10 song and it needs to win this tournament.
I was saving "Carrie Coonlight" in case a pun run broke out in the White Lotus thread.
Not sure it completely works though. Would you be able to tell it was a play on "In the Moonlight" without the "in the"? The syllable count works but I'm not totally confident
It's musically a pretty tricky song for Pearl Jam. Every instrumentalist who isn't Matt needs to really concentrate to get it right. But it's worth it, because it sounds great.
Another vote for "In the Moonlight". Jorge's Law continues to apply

The more people declare in thread that they're voting for song X, the higher the likelihood that song Y will win
