Retrograde

[Birds in Hell]

I don't think I'm going to watch this.

It's one of the songs on the album that I'm actually pretty fond of, I'm not sure I want to risk ruining that.

[LikeLukin]

What am I not getting about the animation in this? It is so choppy and distorted, I don't see how anyone can enjoy this. I guess it is for artistic effect of some sort, but sheesh

[Ms Harmless]

hmmm

this is making me uncomfortable

[dprival78]

Greta knows about this?

I think she is going to sue the band.

depends. do her parents gain anything from her inclusion?

Really?

Really?

Lol, if your ability to like something is so fragile, do you really even like it to begin with?

[WtOB?]

i kinda liked it the first time i watched it but i didn’t realise the psychic was meant to be greta. jeez.

[VinylGuy]

Why do you guys dont like greta? It kinda makes sense she is in the video.

this is my favourite track on the album and this video has not changed that.

[tragabigzanda]

pearl jam sucks now

[Ms Harmless]

I think the strip mall bit was great, with the car parking and the rain etc.

the album titles lining the street though was kinda, OK I smiled, but I wish Pearl Jam would stop being SO self-referential all the time

does any other band celebrate their band so much?

I like the video more and more, though; a solid and fitting concept and I'm glad Greta was involved (with PJ and The 1975, nice)

[Ledbetterdays]

This 2-star song is still a 2-star song with a 5-star outro after watching the video.

it seems like some kind of watercolour / coloured pencil phone filter; it looks a little cheaper than I'd like but also kinda appropriate for all that

[Birds in Hell]

This 2-star song is still a 2-star song with a 5-star outro after watching the video.

I still don't get this.

I like the song a lot but the outro is just functional for me, it's not something that really hits me strongly either way. It doesn't drag the song down but doesn't elevate it either.

[hailroad]

Can totally see Ed bringing Greta on stage while singing this or giving a very Ed-like clunker of a name-drop when this is played. Cringe-worthy.

I think 4 singles is one too many. The video is bad but I still like the song.

It’s by far the best part of the song. I don’t get how that isn’t obvious to everyone. *shrug*

[7 Years and Maybe Longer]

Really starting to dig this song. I was just listening to Moonlander which is even more stellar than I remember. Right after listening to it, I wanted to listen Retrograde. So, beverage in hand, I just made this playlist:

Open Door
Push Me Pull Me
Seven O'clock
Light Years
Moonlander (Stone)
Retrograde
20th Century (Brad)
Better Days

May be a one-time listen but enjoyed it.

I want one more single, River Cross. And a video. The band just playing the song in their studio.

I dont see how this video could ruin the song for you.

I watched it once...that's enough for me.

[E.H. Ruddock]

Yeah one view was enough for me. It's not like the DtE video which I'll watch again. Speaking of, I have a thread to bump
