Oh I get The Fixer
that is beautiful.
Why? Is it because people are moving once in a while and they say the word sitting? Or is it that you hear Pearl jam ? Which is the reason that you like it Burt?

I'm just fascinated at how dated that video looks already, even though it's now 9 years old.

They really missed an opportunity to license that song to Dave and Buster's.

Hard to judge with the sound quality but this seems like it could translate well live if Ed is having a good night.

What is the major difference?

This is what I have now combining what was transcribed here and the video on YT. Still unsure about a few lines.
and now you want me to breathe
and be so grateful
oh, for the air that I need
don't make me pitiful
and in the mornin' light
we're just the same, you and me
out on the go, send officials (?)
our propensity to breed (?)
the higher, the farther, the faster you fly
you may be rich, but you can't deny me
got nothin', got nothin' but the will to survive
you can't control and you can't deny me
your lies are sick, they're sick and they're vile (?)
you can't deny me
try to talk down to me
my mind, it ain't so simple
where's your vocabulary?
your ignorance is sinful
you plant your liar seeds (?)
watch as the roots take hold
the country you are now poisoning
condition critical
the higher, the farther, the faster you fly
I know it's true and you can't deny me
nothin', got nothin', you've got nothin' to hide
little bullshit whore (?)
and you can't deny me
the higher, the farther, the faster you fly
It's all so sick and you can't deny me
you can't deny me
you can't deny me
you don't defy me (?)
you can't deny me
the higher, the farther, the faster you fly
you know you're sick and you can't deny me
got nothin', just nothin', you've got somethin' to hide
we see right through you and you can't deny me
darkness, darkness, darkness and light
you can't deny me

I really want to like this because it’s new Pearl Jam, but I can’t, because it’s shite, top to bottom, regardless of the reference point of greatness. We all know it.
It’s wrong on so many levels. A group of tremendous yet lazy musicians refusing to put the work in and jumping the shark on political comment to rinse a fan base out of more dollars because of upcoming tour (s)
Riot act was shite but at least it was structured and well considered shite.
Don’t be surprised to hear in the upcoming and singular pre album promo filmed by Laura Dern backstage at Brad Pitt’s opium den they decided to record during an intense few weeks to buck the trend of recent albums. No, they’re just lazy bastards refusing to admit they’re nostalgia.
More cowbell and Pussy hats please.

Why don’t you tell us how you really feel?

It’s clear to see how I feel, so no need for the question mark as your question was clearly rhetorical. I’m more interested in hearing how you feel, or was that posted earlier before you took to posting YouTube clips without comment.

The verses are a little better live. There's no saving that kokomo chorus though.

Yes. The what I can only assume to be half arsed rehearsal of that train wreck last night only confirms all of the above.
