Don't know if I already posted in this thread years ago or not, regardless, this song still might be the best thing this band has ever done. It's at least in the team photo.

This song will always be one of my favorites (if not my absolute favorite). Loved it when I first heard it on Vitalogy, but it went next level for me in 1996. That was the first tour I saw, and this song started the set the first night at Randall's Island. It was so densely packed in down front that when the song started, you basically had to start bouncing up and down whether you wanted to or not. I was still young, and it was my first major show like that. I think that was when I realized how expansive and inclusive music could be since everything I had been a part of till that point had been in small club shows. And hearing "let my spirit pass_____________" belted out live was worth the price of admission alone. This is the one song I hope pops up at any show I go to.

Yeah it's like a complicated song trapped in a simple song's body or something. The way Stone plays that riff has got a certain timing to it that makes it stand out.tragabigzanda wrote:Not sure. I think something about the guitars clicked for me. Where before I used to hear a very straightforward garage number, I suddenly started to hear it as s very odd song. The chord choices, the two note bit before the chorus, the palm muted bridge...It's like it took 30 years for the jigsaw puzzle of its composition to reveal itself to me.evenslow wrote:what finally did it for ya?tragabigzanda wrote:I didn't have a ton of appreciation for this song until a couple years ago.

Dave A's playing on Vitalogy is far and away his high point in the band.

He does exactly what's needed for the songs, without being Captain Cymbals.
Gives something like Corduroy just what it needs. A song like that doesn't need a lot of help.

Getting this song live is so great. Even with PRAMG Pearl Jam, it is so high energy at the show.

None of the songs on Vitalogy really lend themselves to that funky grooviness like tunes on Vs and Ten did. There are a lot more layers on Vitalogy than Vs, but funkified is not one of them.tragabigzanda wrote:Yet it's wildly different from his drumming on Vs. It's still got the loose vibe, but all the funk influence is totally gone.evenslow wrote:Dave A's playing on Vitalogy is far and away his high point in the band.
