I quite like the Wasted Reprise. My Father's Son has interesting music and a great bridge, but the lyrics are just too much for me.
I assume it is going to get clobbered, but I'm not kidding when I say acoustic #1 has become one of my favorite pearl jam songs. There's something both immediate and mysterious about it, despite the simplicity of the music. It's all Eddie's performance, and I think it is one of his best. He just envelops this song, hovering over it like a wounded guardian. It's warm, confused, hurt, distant, wistful, but somehow manages to convey this powerful intimacy and stubborn hope. It perfectly crystallizes all his strengths as a singer during his early years, without the music to distract you from how good he is. I don't even know what it's about, and never tried to decipher the lyrics. It's a song that's so good at making me feel that I don't care to know.

Until right now, I hadn't heard Acoustic #1, thanks for the link stip, I enjoyed that more than either of the other choices.

"My Father's Son" has its flaws but the other two barely register with me. Easy vote for "MFS."

MFS, best song of Lightning Bolt.
The other 2 are pretty nice for what they are.

I like Wasted Reprise quite a bit, actually. The Acoustic #1 thing is forgettable.

I voted for Acoustic #1. MFS is alright and Wasted Reprise is decent, but I really enjoy Acoustic #1.

I've heard it enough. It's fine. But I don't need to hear it again.
