Red Mosquito

I think these lyrics are very simple, like "Smile", but suited to the structure of the song; and lending themselves to no rushed word salad, lots of space

Oh no. Definitely no.

Yeah these guitars....sound like Kim Thayil is there with them playing. Matt is fucking awesome..

Love Ed´s vocals too...this song is the best mix between Soundgarden, PJ and WWC.

Don't make me get up outta this chair.

Your obvious trolling has clearly succeeded...I'm a pretty reasonable fella, but, I refuse to accept this as a genuine opinion.

Adjusted after doing some listening. Take the Long Way is my new current favorite song of the moment. I absolutely love it. Numbers 2-6 are all glorious. Porch and Big Wave are both cool songs, but I almost never seek them out. My kids love Red Dot. The bridge Supersonic is the best part of Backspacer, but it lasts for like 10 seconds and the rest of the song is crap. SW is poop.

TTLW better than Corduroy??? *faints*

I've always felt like Corduroy was THE definitive Pearl Jam song.

A lot of people think/say that. I might agree.

utterly monstrous top 3 but otherwise one of the weaker track numbers

"Take the Long Way" is definitely enjoying some new song enthusiasm right now, so it may well drop a few spots, but man I love that thing!

I'm not ready to rank it above Corduroy, yet, but I will admit that I do think Corduroy is a pretty overrated song. I like it. It's obviously a good song. But I've never understood how it managed to climb it's way up to legendary status. It's probably a live thing? Don't know. Point is, I don't think it's absurd to rank TTLW above Corduroy.
