I still remember where I was the first time I heard DTE and heard that squwak and wondered what the fuck Eddie did to himself.
Easy vote for DTE

Faithful has that bridge. Do the Evolution is the Godzilla that stomps on that bridge - except it’s the Godzilla that’s also the first mammal to wear pants, yeah.

I think this would have been Evolution for sure in years past, but my estimation for Faithfull's only gone up over time, and they've become far closer to me. I'll maybe send the vote there this year.

Love them both. Voted for Faithfull to try to tighten things up.

Oh wow.
I never thought of it that way. Fascinating. I have no idea how you picked that up from his post.

Man. Two powerhouse tunes but Ed's finest is DTE.
Hadn't seen this video before. Never seen ed have so much fucking fun with this song too. Geezes, he's all over the place.
This is gotta be the earliest performance of it yea? Opening for the stones. Remember having a boot back in the day. Never saw the video.
Fuck, DTE is the best maybe.

DTE pretty much captures everything I love about this band.

This is the hardest match in this round for me. There's like 20 minutes left and I still haven't decided. "Do the Evolution" is a fucking beast of a song, just unhinged raving. It might be my most favorite aggressive Pearl Jam tune. "Faithfull" is soaring and life-affirming, a brief flirtation with the idea of something bigger. The palindromic structure of the song is an absolute joy and I love the little spoken word bits in the background of the closing verse. Two top tier songs that I am hating the thought of having to vote against.
