Hey guys, I noticed some of you were talking about the best song since 2000, but noticed the lack of Nothing As it Seems being mentioned. I will assume this was an oversight. thanks.

Wasn't that in 2000? I usually say that and mean since Binaural.@SkitchP wrote:Hey guys, I noticed some of you were talking about the best song since 2000, but noticed the lack of Nothing As it Seems being mentioned. I will assume this was an oversight. thanks.

I really have no cause to get involved here but I feel like the other guy is just being a supreme fucktit and anyone can hide behind the internet I suppose but dissing someone's disability is a tad out of bounds no?

Insignificance, Grievance and Sleight of Hand were mentioned, so I presume there is no track location restriction.

We are only considering binaural tracks from 6 on. It is an odd rule, I agree, but we live in a society of laws...@SkitchP wrote:HardTI wrote:Wasn't that in 2000?

I almost think there are nothing but 4-5 star tracks on Binaural.@SkitchP wrote:HardTI wrote:Wasn't that in 2000?

Anytime I say anything remotely controversial about anything, he's on my ass, yet other people do it all the time. Apparently I am not allowed to crack jokes because I am not Harmless' "friend". I didn't know that everything I said had to go through him first. Thank god he is here on the forum 24 hours a day, ridding the place of filth.sward wrote:I really have no cause to get involved here but I feel like the other guy is just being a supreme fucktit and anyone can hide behind the internet I suppose but dissing someone's disability is a tad out of bounds no?

Yeah I don't have many either but if you give a song a 5 and I give it a 4.5 does it really matter? Seems like we get pages of arguments over a couple tenths of a percentage point.stip wrote:On balance I bet i have fewer high scoring songs than most.

I'm not saying there are 5 star songs on Binaural or Riot Act. I'd have to listen to those records again. I do consider Sleight of Hand a 4-star song - that's the best song I can think of from those two records at the moment.stip wrote:how can any song from Binaural or Riot Act be 5 stars compared to that?solace wrote:Coach wrote:People have lost their minds.
For example, Release is a 5-star song. How can any song on LB be a 5-star song when compared to that? Ya gotta grade your PJ on a curve, people!
Even within the 5 star range there's lots of room.
I don't know if any songs on here will be 5 stars. But quite a few will come close.
A 5-star song to me is a Pearl Jam song that I can hear over and over again and still enjoy, still feel that raw emotion that I felt when I first heard it. It has zero flaws. I'm talking Release, Animal, Indifference, Long Road, Black, Last Exit, etc. They come in all shapes and sizes and I grade them on a "pound-for-pound" basis. So there are 5-star rockers and 5-star softer tunes, mid-tempos, etc.
While some time has to pass, at first glance, I don't see how anything on LB comes close to 5 stars. That said, I am buying the CD, will blast it in my car and enjoy new Pearl Jam.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but my only crime here was getting annoyed at Wendy's incessant and boring negative comments about everything Pearl Jam. It's fine to be incessantly negative if you can cope with people's dislike of it. Up until now, the apparent "rivalry" had been entirely about our feelings about Pearl Jam.
