Nope I love the LB chorus. The rest of the song is too wordy, the chorus is simple and fun, and followed by a fun solo.

Ain't "fun" just the best thing about this band?

Pearl Jam only did "fun" well when their fun was influenced by Jack Irons.

Screw this Lightning Bolt stuff, I want some Vs. sessions goodies. 
"Matchless"? "Eastern Beatles?" "Dave's Song?"

The best fun they ever recorded was on Lost Dogs.

"Dave's Song" is probably Go.

Actually, the other redeeming thing about the LB chorus is that Ed doesn't scream it, a la S/T. He just sings it.

I don't hear straining, everything apart from the "light-" syllable sounds quite clean, and that syllable sounds deliberately screamed. Having said all that, he strained horribly at Wrigley.WtOB? wrote:he strains it.harmless wrote:Actually, the other redeeming thing about the LB chorus is that Ed doesn't scream it, a la S/T.

It could have been a much more interesting song if they went in another direction there.
It's those verses I'm fairly unenthused about.
(I haven't heard the leak yet, only the live recording and what's in this video.)
Edit: oh I misread.
