I don't think "Future Days" is a bad song. In fact, it's probably one of the better songs on LB.

It's hard to say for sure. All I could hear were his frog hiccups.

Re: UNPOPULAR PEARL JAM OPINIONS
It just seems like blatant Springsteen emulation to me, which I can live with. Far less embarrassing than something like "Let the Records Play", which is basically the musical equivalent of this.

From the first time I heard, Future Days confidently earned the spot of worst PJ song for me, and unfortunately that hasn't changed.

First time I heard it live last night. Enjoyed it more than when listening on the album. I just thank God they didn't play MFSBirds in Hell wrote:Let the Records Play is awesome, you buffoons.

Re: UNPOPULAR PEARL JAM OPINIONS
Listened to LB yesterday for the first time in 2+ years. Didn't mind it. Everything except My Father's Son, Lightning Bolt, Yellow Moon & Future Days came off well to my ears. Getaway, Infallible & Pendulum stood very far out from the rest.
Almost made me want to spin Backspacer, but I'm scared. Probably just listen to the Conan Tonight Show version of Got Some & call it good.

Re: UNPOPULAR PEARL JAM OPINIONS
Let the Records Play has a great bridge, that's something.
Future Days is awful.
