Re: Song of the Moment: Down
Yeah. For a song that is going for an uplifting vibe, Ed sounds so... listless

Re: Song of the Moment: Down
Absolutely. That sort of "listless" quality people are describing is so important to why this song works. He sounds content but wistful, like a grown-up "Wishlist". I love this song.chewm wrote:Ed sounds great here.

Re: Song of the Moment: Down
The fact this song could have been on Riot Act is crazy to me. It is so much better than almost the entirety of Riot Act. How this song didn't make it when other songs did I dont know.
I guess it wouldnt fit because it's a good song.

Riot Act is like a warm fuzzy ax throwing jacket. It wouldn't fit because it was too big. Get your facts from a factual source buddy.

He meant the Pearl Jam album “Riot Act”. Which sucks. What are you talking about?Birds in Hell wrote:Almost everything on Riot Act is better than this song.
