well, it sounds like he doesn't think he has much time left; wouldn't you?

I love that they're just going full-on on every song.

me too! yeah you could say there's too many, but fuck it, there's "too many" on Ten as well and who doesn't love that?

I received a link, but says I need a decryption key. Any help?

something special sounds like a Weezer song.. they would sound better playing it i think

It seems that way, doesn't it?

Something Special - Got To Give is the serotonin boost I needed

album is mid

So theres a link?? I'll gladly take it!

i dunno.. i'm only listening on my desktop computer speakers but i'm not a fan of this album.. doesn't feel genuine or something.. i'll give it a generous 3 stars for now

Got to Give is great. I love this iteration of Pearl Jam that uses piano/keys more.

I love how spontaneous Ed sounds on this records. Lots of little parts with lots of variation that don't seem too thought out. Just letting loose

What are these crackheads smoking?

yep - got it too of course, as my red 10c variant waits in fucking no man's land. Honestly we should all email them back a snarky response like...

Noticed the Email was sent as 'High Importance' too......

Agreed a few pages ago:

K, bye.

I don't think it's a bad thing, but it does kinda make them not that special, added to my pet peeves about this release.
