Same.

I like Retrograde a fair deal more than Get It Back. Really, I can't think of a song on Gigaton that isn't better than Get It Back.

Good song. Glad it's out there. But it works best as a stand alone track/b-side.

I already like it, but otherwise, I agree. Wouldn't be surprised if I change my tune about this being less than all of Gigaton over time. There's a lot to like about the song. It's got legs, I think.

yeah, its a pretty cool song with many things to unpack but i feel Gigaton is perfect the way it is. Retrograde went from meh to fuck yeah in a couple of months for me.

The heavy part in the chorus is Whipping on downers.

I think it's possibly better than all of them, but hey:



I'm just glad they released it.

Totally. I'm glad they released it, too.

I absolutely adore Gigaton. Get It Back might be my 4th or 5th favorite song on the album if it had been included. It’s a fantastic song.

I gave it 3 stars. I appreciate whenever they step away from "straightforward rock song" mode and I usually love Matt's songwriting but compositionally there's not much grabbing me here. The Stone song is way better.

Agree on all points

Who are you?

Who You Are

I also agree with Jorge.

The Pearl Jam song is a grower. The Stone song is a shower.

I think it’s easier to like and appreciate the Stone song right away because it’s all up front and it’s got a good groove. I really like the song, but after several listens I’m not sure it’s quite as good as I initially thought it might be. On the other hand, the PJ song seems to reveal its self with repetition, only growing in esteem with more familiarity. I really dig both songs, but the Pearl Jam song is better. I think time with show that for many of you.

I very much doubt I will listen to the Pearl Jam song ever again

Has your tall guy from the simpsons avatar had a mask this whole time?

Yeah!

Between this new Stone track and the one they released on the xmas single, I'm SUPER excited for a new Stone solo album. I have no idea if he's working on one or not. But I'd love it if he is.

Well then your opinion carries no weight. It is based on insufficient evidence and is basically stated just so you can read your own insufficiently informed drivel.
