I am sure Eddie will do some more solo work and probably play some shows on his own. I hope they don't stay away too long. They represent almost everything I like about music.

There's this one song by Pearl Jam that's playing every time I turn on the radio that annoys me, are they all like that? -.-

 

(I don't know what the song's called)

Eddie's gotten to be a much better guitar player over the years.

The song I was talking about is Just Breathe. Is that what Pearl Jam is like?

1. It is what Pearl Jam sounds like in one sense - after all, it is a Pearl Jam song. I am sure the song is mainly influenced by Eddie Vedder, since it sounds almost exactly like something off his Into The Wild soundtrack.

 

2. Pearl Jam has an evolving sound, so, no, it is not ONLY "what Pearl Jam is like".

 

3. Save Radiohead, Pearl Jam is the best band over the last 20 years IMO.

I would love it if you recommended me some of their songs. :nice:

I think Pearl Jam is more of an album band. However, if you are looking for individual songs, I think the Greatest Hits album, "Rearview Mirror," is a nice collection. The first CD has the heavy songs; the second disc has more of the softer songs. Of course, it's far from comprehensive, but in the absence of another logical starting point, it would be my recommendation. If I could only have one song off each of the Greatest Hits discs, I would take "State of Love and Trust" off disc 1 and "Black" off disc 2.

 

In terms of albums, I would recommend you listen to Ten, Vs., and Vitalogy, and in that order. Most people who like Pearl Jam like those albums. Any album after Vitalogy is for more of the hardcore fan, I would say.

 

Eddie Vedder's voice can be an acquired taste, so there may not be an immediate connection. I think he's great, though.

PJ are the perfect band for me because they're the only band i know who have mastered the art of writing heavy, soft AND pop songs.

I would love it if you recommended me some of their songs. :nice:

 

Alive - Amongst The Waves - Better Man - Black - Brother - Gonna See My Friend - Got Some - Jeremy - Nothingman - Oceans - Once - Porch - The End - The Fixer - Unthought Known

 

:nice:

 

As Pearl Jam fans might notice , I love Backspacer :wacky: :smug:

First clip of Better Days a song by Eddie Vedder for the movie " Eat,Pray,Love" with Julia Roberts. The soundtrack will have 2 songs by Eddie Vedder :)

 

:heart:

Thank you for posting it!!

It's a nice song, I'm just starting to listen to more of their stuff.

So far I only really know the soundtrack of "Into The Wild"... :embarrassed:

Pearl Jam is not the easiest listen. A lot of their stuff is not loaded with big hooks or melodies, and it can take awhile to get used to Eddie's voice. However, it's worth the time, in my opinion. Amazing, amazing band.

You very welcome Sue :)

 

Into The Wild is a great beggining if you want to know a little bit more about Eddie Vedder his voice .. which is wonderfull :P but Pearl Jam music is a bit diferent , just like bjaikan said :)

yaaay ,this thread has people again ... :cheesy:

 

I heard Pearl Jam wasn't that good at Rock Werchter festival in Belgium , now a lot of friends say they don't like them , But I went a week before Rock werchter and they were f*cking amazing ...

:disappointed:

My physiotherapist is a biiiiiiig fan of them, in fact you could call him a proper fanboy hahaha.

He's jokingly teasing me for liking Muse and Coldplay and says he'll make a CD for me - but only after I've been to Wembley because otherwise I wouldn't be able to still enjoy Muse because I'd love Pearl Jam even more. :lol:

He's adorable.

 

I downloaded their Austin City Limits performance for him and I quite like it I must say.

Don't know if that was a representative setlist though. :uhoh:

Aww, that's nice, but a recommendation of like... let's say about 5 songs would be awesome already!

Alive, Even Flow , Daughter , Better Man and Last Kiss.
