:-) Oh, and for you Cold Case fans, this song was featured in a two episode series featuring Pearl Jam (right after their greatest hits album "Rearviewmirror" came out). The end of this song gets your air guitar going. Apparently, this is about Vedder hating is stepfather. For some reason, I initially thought this song was about some sort of date rape, but them came to realize it was about becoming free of abuse of someone who was hated with a passion. And then "I took a drive today/Time to emancipate". The beginning instruments just captures you. Rearviewmirror ( Vs., 1993): A hard-hitting, fast-paced song with Vedder on the guitars. "Lost nine friends we'll never know, two years ago today". It is dedicated to nine people that died during a concert Pearl Jam was giving in Denmark in 2000. It is actually a very emotional song, especially to Pearl Jam. Love Boat Captain ( Riot Act, 2002): This song starts builds from slow to fast and ends slow. By the way, for the video below, I was at that concert in San Francisco :-) At least it is not "Last Kiss", I guess (although, I like that song better than a lot of people). I would say this is the most "poppy" song on my list. Talks about being lifting yourself up from the depths of some sort of despair.
Without further ado, here is the list of all Pearl Jam lists, with video samples so you can get an idea of how great these songs are:ĭown ( Lost Dogs, 2003): An uplifting song off of their Lost Dogs album, I have no real main reason for liking this song other than I just like it. Then I listened to those 25 to come up with my decision. I quickly narrowed down the list by grabbing my "5-star" rated songs off of iTunes. Narrowing the list down to 10 was horribly difficult. I would say their catalog consists on the order of 175+ songs, and I like a bunch of them. I was challenged to come up with my Top 10 favorite songs by this band, led by Eddie Vedder.
Lollapalooza 1992 pretty much defined my musical interest in this band, and there has been no turning back. :-) When anyone asks me my favorite singer or band, there is no hesitation that it is Pearl Jam.
