Can you show me a properly executed cover by PJ?
I think covers are one of their strengths.

There's plenty: Baba and RITFW are reliable old faithfuls, Fuckin' Up is always welcome, Timeless Melody was great, Crazy Mary was fantastic on the 2000 tour, etc.

ive never seen this movie, nor did i watch the clip, but this is the kinda live stuff i enjoy. impromptu, spur of the moment type stuff. they used to do it more often. im sure eddie vedder watched the movie w/ his kids and had the song stuck in his head. hopefully the next movie he watches is 'stop making sense'
For the record, I love Frozen, and love the song.
I'm not complaining that he did it, I love that he did it.
Its just unfortunate that it sounds horrible.
Especially because he got so much attention for it. I was gonna post it on my wall and then I listened to it and decided not to because I don't want to show that off.

Their Gut Feeling is quite faithful to the original.

This is from Eddie who supposedly "spends hours deliberating which songs should be placed into a setlist and where they should go"... this is quite pathetic. I wonder how long it took him to think up where to put this Disney song.
Ugh. You people sicken me.
Desperate for what exactly? You think that small clip was to tap into a certain demographic? Yeah thats the ticket! Obviously for his kids…..
