You're most of the way there already! Now maybe focus on the outro.

You quoted wrong. I love everything about Cropduster.

Yeah, fail.

The first Pearl Jam album I downloaded off the net before release.


Good times

Been really liking Love Boat Captain lately.

'i am mine' is just a better song than 'cropduster'. songs with unusual time signatures aren't always cool, this is a great example. i like the chorus more than the rest of the song, but 'i am mine' is way better.

I am Mine is bottom 3 on Riot Act.

it's probably in my top 5, but i don't think this is a great album. it's probably just above LB/Backspacer

"Cropduster" is several notches above "I Am Mine" for me, and it's not just because it's in 7, but because it's a thoughtfully composed song with a lot of cool touches and a compelling hook while "I Am Mine" is some corny bullshit

Look, I don't actually understand time signatures at all and Cropduster is better. But both are great!

And there's nothing about I Am Mine that I find corny.

i guess if you think the anthemic nature of the music is overdone or the lyrics are too cheesy you could find it corny, but i absolutely love the song, from the opening riff to the soaring outro. it's exactly what it's trying to be, a self-affirming yell, even if you are just yelling at yourself to convince yourself to overcome something. maybe people find overcoming self-doubt corny?

I am mine is not corny at all

Jorge is just having a jaded and gritty phase guys

I don't hate "I Am Mine". In fact I like it better than pretty much every lead single that followed. But yeah I think it's pretty corny

nobody said you hated it, but again, its not corny

future days is corny

"Future Days" is more cheesy than corny

its shitty

"Mind Your Manners," meanwhile, is hammy

Weird
