This is my response to NAIS. Without the interesting time signature and replace Soundgarden with Pink Floyd. Oh, and I don't like the bridge.

Man, I love everything about Nothing As It Seems.

I love everything about you.

I know. Everyone but me does. It just seems like Jeff heard Comfortably Numb on the radio and went home and tried to come up with something similar. And I already hate Comfortably Numb. It just hits absolutely nothing for me as far as what I like in a song.

See? I'm the only one in Pearl Jam fandom that doesn't like it.








It's pretty lonely here at the bottom.

I DID finally come around on Sleight of Hand, at least.

Sleight of Hand is top shelf Pearl Jam. And it has been (for me) since the first time I heard it. From listen #1 it was my favorite song on Binaural (an album that's taken a long time for me to catch up to) and it hasn't let go since. I goddamn love that song so much it's sickening.

I've never noticed any similarity between the two. But I also really love Comfortably Numb. So.
