Love the resolution of this one. This is the kind of Pearl Jam I never grow tired of - Eddie's voice rising with the chiming guitars. So good

This one is great!
Love the guitars on this
Has a U2 & Cure feel
Eddie's vocals are spot on too

The verses give me a Binaural feel, maybe something like Light Years or Rival with the stompiness of Smile

This may be the catchiest chorus they have ever written.

This one is going to have to grow on me, especially since the two that follow are incredible.

Massive U2 vibes on the outro. But as Alan Partridge might say: "It just works!"

for me, it's those two quick vocal triplet runs after "waiting for your message...to come"

"da-da-da! da-da-da"

Liked this one initially, but was taken aback at just how poppy it was. It's growing on me with each listen. Can't wait to hear the album version in good quality audio.

That was liquid Pearl Jam

Peter Gabriel all over that chorus. Stunning composition

This may be a grower for me but happy to see that people seem to be digging it... I really thought people were going to react negatively to this one

Are you kidding, that line where he goes waiting for your message to come is genius

This was a favorite from the metal door leak, it is a truly great composition!

100 percent. It could have been delivered straight, and if I sing straight it is good. Instead he twist in a very great way. It created a moment of what did I hear I wasn't expecting that. Then it comes again pretty quickly. It is little bit of a grown up version of the same technique being used in glorified g. This is partly what makes Go Your Own Way so earwormey

The fact the lyric to the hook came to Jeff Ament in a dream is pretty amazing. I keep coming back to this song.
