What a great song!
Is it cool if I hope Pelosi and Schumer die of Coronavirus too?
I only picked 1. You picked 2. that doesnt seem like a fair trade, phatj.
What if I pick Obama? Or is that racist?
That's not racist. Thats just dumb!
You’re right, he’s not president anymore. Would’ve made more sense eight years ago.
See! Trumpsters CAN use their brain!
Okay back to how amazing this fucking song is.

This song is maybe my favorite PJ song since Sleight of Hand.

It's the first time to me in like 20 years of albums that Pearl Jam sounded like Pearl Jam, I was shocked

I’m not well-versed in Kerouac. Anyone want to take a stab at the “Kerouac sense of time” lyric?
Do you think it’s a reference to beat poets, and their delivery, or the sense of time relating to his part in the counter-culture?

Mike is doing fine work here on the outro but Jeff Ament is just fucking killing it. I could listen to this last 1:20 forever

I'd love to see a Single Video Theory take on this song alone. They're all on fire, but Jeff at the end is just unbelievable.

I love how it just seems to fall apart at the very end.

Absolutely
Name another "rock" song by a band 30 years in, with the guys all in their 50's, that grooves that hard and sounds that lively and unhinged. There might even be one, so let me know, but this has to be way up there.

Having gone back to this one a few more times, I think it's only OK.
I wouldn't say it's a song I particularly enjoy while listening to, at least not at this point.
Perhaps I'll feel differently once I can hear it without the transcode murk, but I'm a little doubtful.

I do like it a lot, but I may be overrating this in my own internal thinking about the album so far because of the love it's getting here. SHOULD I love it more?
