Is it the best ever song from a Pearl Jam side project?

Objectively it’s probably Hunger Strike. My favorites are on Mirror Ball. Wake up is really good but I voted for Black.

No, it’s the best song on that album, just ahead of River Of Deceit.

I do love Hunger Strike. Third best song on TOTD.

Black is a classic, but Wake Up has far better lyrics, and sounds less grounded in the 90s. Just timeless.
Also fantastic solo by Mike on Wake Up.

Not even close to beating Wake Up. Five stars vs four stars.

It got crushed by Scared Of Fear in round one. That’s evidence enough.

Wake Up is pretty dreadful, real self-indulgent navel gazing stuff.
Black's alright, in contrast, though still too melodramatic for my tastes.
