Sleight of Hand vs Undone

Undone is my second favorite song from the Binaural/Riot Act sad and lonely period. Possibly because it's about not being sad and lonely anymore. But mostly because it's great.

Sleight of Hand is always skipped unless I am making a point of listening to the album in its entirety. And not in a River Cross 'i'm preserving the impact' way. I think it delivers on its core concept. I just don't want to hear it

Your sleight of hand paragraph perfectly encapsulates my attitude towards it as well.

Voted for Undone.

SoH

Sleight of Hand is a gut punch. One of the best songs in the Pearl Jam catalog. I'd have no problem with it winning the whole tournament.

Undone is a RA era highlight, to be sure. A great song that would get my vote were it up against a myriad other competitors. Hate to see it draw one of the big heavies in its first round. But here we are...

Huh, two songs I'm fine with but don't love. Tough, low-stakes vote for...I dunno.
