Thank you for this beautiful song and extraordinary film. I know some of the folks involved at the Harte Research Institute for Gulf of Mexico Studies at Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi, should you be in Texas some time, and want a private tour and update. All the best!
@dolunaydainsanolan sure mr Vedder grows better with time but don't disrespect Chris Cornell, the man is a goddamn legend for a reason and he's going to show it to us all, hopefully with the next Soundgarden record.
Thank you, PJ, for sharing the words. They help me articulately share the lyrics with my blind daughter, who can't see this amazing video. GO GRIZ!!!!!!!!!!!
@karimala1 But she can feel the waves. The video is simple sight. Feeling, hearing, touching and sensing the waves is much better than seeing them. Just imagine you closing your eyes and 'seeing' it from her perspective. Todays world is often full of nonsense. Feeling is everlasting.
@swassontelus Love your perspective! :-) But...OMG...remembering the day she and I were tethered to a parasail together when the rope failed, and we were left hanging up in the air for over an hour. And then the rope being cut and plunging straight down into Lake Coeur d'Alene! All I could do was talk to her, because she couldn't see what was about to happen. This video alleviates any leftover fear from our time bubbling up under the water. Beautiful and amazing!!!
what a fantastic song! these guys keep doin it after all these years. pearl jam has been my favorite band since ten. and remain after backspacer. thanks matt mike stone eddie and jeff
i loved this band in the early 90, got old and faded. this reminds me of the passion of this band. they live to play and it reminds me of my younger years. If you love music, you love this band
there is always an album that you heard for the first time that change your life forever for me that album was ten I was eight years old . I love Pearl jam In high school i convinced a friend i was dating Eddie Vedder. Pearl jam got my though high school and my home life.
i wonder if thats ed pullin into that barrel ? I really loved hearing that story about him meeting Mark Richards on a plane when he was 15 coming back from Hawaii. LIVE YOUR DREAM !!
im seventeen and i love pearl jam to death and theres barely asnyone else my age that listens to them and it really sickens me because songs like this are so beautiful and have so much more substance than the top 40 shit, and also ten is one of the greatest albums ever made
@FeRNandoKaZaHaYa I LIKE YOUR ANSWER,BECAUSE YOU DONT OFFEND THOSE WHO LISTEN TO MUSIC POP OF THESE DAYS.I LIKE MUSIC WICH YOU MENTIONED ,PEARL JAM MY FAVOURITE,BUT I DONT OFFEND THOSE WHO LISTEN BIEBER,BRITNEY.........FOREVER ROCK
@RetroGamerr: Ur lucky u even get stations that play pearl jam. Ontario music sucks donkey butthole. The only pj song they ever play is even flow and it's on almost every fuckin day on one station. Radio has power that is used incorrectly all the time.
@mastrchief47 You have even more luck to even been able to listen to even flow. Here in brazil everything that plays on the radio is ''tecno brega''. Have you ever listened to that THING? I pray the lord you never have to.
@moonchild678 Respect my elders , i do respect my elders . But see i consider my elders to be atleast in their 40`s , and actually , you think you know more . I have seen the light wait nevermind , God isn`t real .
i listen to backspacer once and i wasnt impressed,i was listening to radio just now and i've been blown away completely by this song,it's such a beautiful
"I can feel like I have a soul that has been saved..." Thank you Pearl Jam.
