How do you differentiate between "PJ songs that I'd like to hear covered by other artists" vs. "PJ songs that I'd like more if they were originals by other artists"? I can feel that there's a difference but I can't quite pinpoint it. The end result would likely be functionally the same

i pretty much listed my least favorite pearl jam songs and artists that would make them better. it would be cool to hear QOTSA cover "Go", but I'm not going to like it more than pearl jam doing it. on the other hand, "Lightening Bolt" sucks, but Bad Religion doing it might make me like it more.

There are a lot of Pearl Jam songs that I like and would love to hear another artist tackle. What I'm looking at here are songs that Pearl Jam wrote that I don't really love or that don't totally work for me, and that sound to my ears like they could actually be covers. Songs that are similar to styles/strengths that I value in other artists' work, but that Pearl Jam aren't credibly pulling off in a way that's as satisfying to me as they would be had that other artist written the song.

Does that make sense?

I don't know. Maybe there isn't really a functional difference, but in my mind there is. But I like people doing whatever they want with this thread/topic. It's a little fluid and open to interpretation and I'm cool with just seeing what other people make of it, too.

Since you hate Habit, how about Black Sabbath doing it?

I don't know much Sabbath outside of the mega-hits. Is Habit a Sabbath style song?

It's a little too fast and thrashy but early Sabbath riffs are similarly heavy and use the tritone and dissonant intervals, which "Habit" does a lot

Interesting. Then, yeah, maybe that would be a good example of what I'm talking about in this thread. Maybe a Sabbath 'Habit' would be pretty cool.

"Amongst the Waves" by Steve Roach or somebody. Stretch that mf'er out into an ambient drone piece so that is completely unrecognizable from the original.
