I can't believe Porch has 32% of the votes. Those Ten fans.... :shake:
I agree... I'm neither...

Just listened to them both back-to-back and the choice became surprisingly easy. Nothing against Porch, but Hail hail wins this one.

This was an easy choice.
Hail Hail along with corduroy and given to fly is an embodiment of what pearl jam do best.

However, it's fucking Porch people. Go listen to any version from 1994 and get back with me.
this... though I would say any version from those halcyon days of the early nineties.
Though fuck Hail, Hail is good.

I always forget how intent he was during that era to not sound like Eddie Vedder. It really hits home when you watch him a live clip and hear him sounding like that.

Glad to see RM loves Hail Hail so much... I always thought that might be an overlooked gem

I'm glad you said that. A friend (not a PJ fan, but a musician) once told me that it's incredible to listen to Ed on that version, as he sings so high for so long on that song.

Eddie Vedder should sound like Eddie Vedder. That's who he is. He sounds neutered.
