RVM really is an excellent song. The worst speeding ticket I ever got was while listening to RVM.
SoH might be my favorite PJ song, though.

This is a good one. I love Sleight Of Hand about as much as most people here, but Rearviewmirror was one of those songs that drew me into Pearl Jam. I'm a huge fan of how it has gained a different kind of life live than it had in the studio while the core of the song's drive remains the same. This is going to be close!

"RVM" is a great song, but "Sleight of Hand" is, definitively, my favorite Pearl Jam song. So, "Sleight" it is.

I feel like this match up may take the title for most overrated songs head to head. I'm abstaining, unless somebody can sway me.

I absolutely love Sleight of Hand. I think it is the best song PJ has ever written.

Both great. More memories with RVM though and that's enough for me.

Both of these are monster tracks. Two of my favorite from two different eras of my favorite band. This is tough. And you what, last year or the year before that, I probably would have gone RVM easily, without much thought.
But it's a new year and that's why we continue to do this thing over and over again. I think I have to go Sleight of Hand. No, I do. I have to go Sleight of Hand.
But I won't be sad if it loses. I adore both of these songs. But Sleight of Hand means more to me these days and I reach for that track WAY more often than RVM.
