Bushleaguer vs River of Deciet

River of Deciet is the best thing Layne Staley ever did outside of would and 3 songs on Jar of Flies. easy vote

i like river of deceit and mad season a lot but am team bushleaguer on this one

the music to bushleaguer is actually really interesting

and the power its performance has over audiences literally drives some people crazy

it is a powerful song

Bushleaguer is good. River of Deceit is one of the best songs of its era.

This is a PJ tournament. Riot Act is a Pearl Jam album. Buahleaguer wins by default.

River of Deceit is one of the best songs of that time period. I can see it going far in the tournament.

You spelled deceit wrong!

River

No, let's not play like that, please. If a song is in the tournament, let it live.

I'm sorry, Anders. I must be true to myself and my values.

Because Hunger Strike is the better song, and Hungry Strike features all of Pearl Jam.

I think l genuinely prefer "Bushleaguer."

"River of Deceit" is okay, and it seems like a really authentic song for Layne, but all of that "my pain is self chosen, etc. etc." type stuff just doesn't connect with me anymore.

"Bushleaguer" is a gnarly, offbeat little song that serves as a micro-showcase for that era of the band's weirdest tendencies. I miss that era of the band a lot.

It’s perfectly fine to vote for a song not by Pearl Jam. You don’t have to use MAGA-logic to make it ok.

Layne is more miss than hit for me as a writer (with some exceptions) for those reasons, but the performance is undeniable, and the music is gorgeous.

I'm not doing that not thank you for your permission.

At the end of the day, Bushleaguer is the better song. I haven't listen to River of Deceit in sometime like 30 years.
