Pearl Jam Evolution

[hitikan]

CGI is alright.but traditional animation has its charm.

[kentaokabe]

Currently 2011 we are at the 3:05 era or the computer is everything stage. Next 20 years, is gonna be very scary.

[dignasy]

is that "Death" from the Sandman Series???

[TheLeka27]

yeah vid have point....rly the best

[OoryanoO42]

True story.

[RaTeDRKOdwyer94]

Best. song. best. video. ever

[Wyatt19961212]

2:50 skull pilot for those who dont want to wait and watch the whole thing

[Danno1850]

WE MADE IT PAST 2010 YYAAAAAAA EVERYONE DO THE EVOLUTION

[Missrainbowmuffin]

By far one of the best music videos ever made.

Ongoing inspiration for me as an artist and I hope to take things further, using this as just one of many examples.

Thanks Pearl Jam and thanks to everyone apart of sending such a powerful and important message to everyone in internet land.

[ryanbrownrigg888]

Listen to my videos and i'll grant you three wishes

[KarlaMercury]

amo la parte de la 2 guerra mundial¡¡¡ 2 war world is he best¡¡

[sdlfndvn]

0:30 lol

[MrZeus141]

dont see what the dancing woman is suppose to mean though? any ideas

[Missrainbowmuffin]

@MrZeus141 Death, she pops up at all the right moments, or wrong moment I should say. She dances in the face of tragedy and suffering, then transforms in a split moment to show a skull replacing her pretty face...she wears the army helmet and gives you a wink ....How is it not death? It goes well with the way the lyrics are sung, the screaming "its evolution baby!".....Besides I moreso love the themes of ongoing corruption, doom and destruction of nature being shown and done by humans.

[MrZeus141]

@Missrainbowmuffin mmmmmm if thats what death looks like then im gonna jump of a tower lol

[dignasy]

@MrZeus141 she is "Death" from the "Sandman" graphic novel of Vertigo DC

[kentaokabe]

@dignasy No she isn't. Different hair, different clothes, different make up. They just have similar theme, gothic. But no that's not Death.

[MrZeus141]

make war not love :) hahaha

[Kemonokami]

America's all about freedom.

The freedom to exploit.

The freedom to invade.

The freedom to destroy.

The freedom to consume.

The freedom to produce.

The freedom to pursue happiness and prosperity at the expense of everything else, including happiness and prosperity.

[AvacadoDesperado]

@Kemonokami  America's also a place of free speech. Otherwise in other countries LESS-free you'd be in a camp as a political prisoner. Be thankful.

[Kemonokami]

@AvacadoDesperado

I am most thankful, but...

[franco6able]

@AvacadoDesperado free speech is only useful if you actually get listened to

[Kemonokami]

3:33 - TETSUOOOOOOOOO!!!!

[Kemonokami]

Good old fashioned Misanthropy fuel.

[kjsway]

Great video a classic cartoon depict of what the globalists have been planning for the next few years yet we the people are trying to prevent !! @swayworldwide

[bielfs15]

how Pearl Jam can be so perfect ?

[freshjay3]

Uhm, how old is dis song??

[Duraan84]

@freshjay3 over 10 years old.

[JDart1776]

110 people are obviously unable to appreciate the talent of Pearl Jam.......... =p

[ghofspa1]

So... who's the girl with black clothes and black hair?

[unrealassasination]

@ghofspa1 I dunno....Death maybe?

[kenseisato1989]

humans are the ying and the yang, exepet one side is stronger and its called corruption

[darrylsh]

109 nazis like this

[JDart1776]

@darrylsh: 109 Nazis DON'T like this...........how about that? LOL. =p

[guythatonlycomments]

wicked song and video and the 109 dislikes were from kids under the age of 6 that got scared and disliked it.

[defenderofreason22]

@guythatonlycomments I remember seeing this on TV when I was six and I thought it was awsome.

[guythatonlycomments]

@defenderofreason22 kool



[coolkid350]

basically the worst of humanity in a nutshell

[hotelmario510]

Okay, I am going to blow your minds. Pause at 3:35 or so. You will see the face of the banker who killed himself earlier.

[COFF1NNA1L]

this song was ahead of its time. best music video i have ever seen, still.

[123sjovballon]

109 of the people who watched this video are apparently creationists...

[SirGeorge8600]

@123sjovballon Nah, I just don't like Pearl Jam. First time I heard them and meh.... I believe in evolution though....just not bad music. ;-)

[Irishinobi145]

2010 didn't go to fire

[00djSeaweed00]

Luv this music video.......

"Admire me, admire my home

Admire my son, he's my clone

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

This land is mine, this land is free

I'll do what I want irresponsibly

It's evolution, baby."

[omerlavi]

 who made this animation and when? does anybody know?

[TheKaisama]

@omerlavi The music video was made in 1998 and Todd McFarlane and Kevin Altieri co-directed it. That's as close as you'll probably get to know the animators of it since it was done in Korea.

[Nipplemuff]

@omerlavi Todd Macfarlane, creator of Spawn, 1998.

[jcmagicalmysterytour]

They're very good at producing an angry sound.  Maybe the military could use their music.

[heavymotion]

wow brilliant !!! best video ever

[jcmagicalmysterytour]

NOISY !

[Watchfr1]

[chalky609]

Most accurate song and clip ever released. Think about this.

[ArtKbal1KING]

Apocalipsis!!

[viperpulse]

Can someone help me, just leave a reply, what is the Pearl Jam song from the 90s where the music video was animated and had the immovable robot chick churning out babies like it was breeding. I cannot for the life of me remember which song that was.

[xXTyroneBiggumsXx]

@viperpulse Ummm this song?

[Th3MetalShockwave]

i love  grunge

[nam9456]

the anime series the vid is about rlly tells what we have in store and what has happened ive only watched a couple episodes but its a rlly good series and makes us look at what WE ALL have done to our own world

[SpiritoftheEmperor]

fucking McFarlane ripping off Bruce Timm's style.

[redeemer61190]

DEvolution sounds more like it

[hussi434]

ROFL THE SKULL PILOT FROM WTF BOOM!!!!!!

[JDart1776]

@hussi434: Yep......so now you know where that part of the meme came from. =)

[Kibblinator]

@hussi434 it was here first >:D

[Zach9898]

I love the meaning to this song and video

[hotpantsjenny]

I like this guitar solo.

[MetalShreader]

2001 space odyssey clip FTW

[freklez123456]

[Meecoseven]

[ethanashton]

1:06-1:14

[babylonkid]

McFarland + Vedder. Is that heaven?

[helenaglima]

caramba, esse clipe é DEMAIS!

[PsychoJosh]

The girl's supposed to represent death, how she's been with us through every generation of man, constantly dancing right in front of us.

[PennybagDarrell]

@PsychoJosh if thats what death looks like i hope i die tomorrow.

[NickNorie15]

@SlyNicolai

Nah, I know what the girl is but she has man-like face at 2:48

Is that a caveman?

[NickNorie15]

@SlyNicolai

WHAT WAS SO BAD ABOUT THE CRUSADES?

Are you fucking kidding me?

[eternalnate]

@NickNorie15 Holy fucking shit...

[NickNorie15]

@eternalnate

what?

[eternalnate]

@NickNorie15 dude asking what was so bad about the crusades.

[NickNorie15]

@eternalnate

"holy" shit indeed...

[eternalnate]

@NickNorie15 Yes, indeed

[Kemonokami]

Despite all of this, I remember the most important universal truth:

No light without darkness.

No death without life.

No joy without suffering.

No hate without love.

No dreams without nightmares.

No matter what it is, it relies on its better and worse halves.

[NickNorie15]

2:48

Who was that supposed to be?

[edgbarrowwight]

somewhere in the heavens, God/ Allah/ Jehovah/ Brahman or whatever created earth and the universe is facepalming him/herself saying 'we should have just stuck with the dinosaurs'

[JoshBoyy1]

at the end of the day...you just gotta do the evolution.

[Makzim83]

politicals are Not elected by folks.

funny thing is - we Know that we smoke eat drink s hit.

[Grandbiku]

2:51 is the best effing scene in music video history.

[BGCAMERON]

Awsome socio political statement, but it goes beyond that, it also shows how science is becoming the new religion as a means for control. With it's mention of cloning, and the visuals of the embryo, it encompasses our manipulation of the genetic code and patening of genetic traits. It's about humanity's lust for wealth, social standing and control. The subjugation of resources, economies, nations and people. Just look closely at modern global economics, it's not even hidden!.

[franco6able]

@BGCAMERON i agree with what you are saying except for 'humanity's lust for....', it isn't humanity, it is this culture. There have been thousands of human cultures that have had much healthier values. It just seems like we are humanity as this culture has trampled all others into oblivion

[TheANSELMO999]

105 people doesn't like the evolution !!!

[Linares187]

Well, that was epic.

[LionTroy]

I'm pretty sure this is the reason the aliens are keeping the hell away from us.

[Dynamo1316]

till this day that video still raddle's my brain-cage.. the shit stays bad ass!!!

[AlmigthyIsDead]

I fancy myself a cold-hearted SOB, but this video in combination with the music always brings a tear to my eye.

[NickNorie15]

@AlmigthyIsDead

A tear??? Fuck, man, this video only makes me angry. I reckon that's what they wanted to inspire more than sadness: Anger. That's the first step towards change, I reckon.

[asaradec]

@NickNorie15 not the kinda change we need man. We need peace. Fear and hatred is leading humanity to the dark side.

[NickNorie15]

@asaradec

Fear is bad, yes. It's what leads people to supporting entities like the U.S government. But anger? I think that if more people were angry at the atrocities the U.S government (and a lot of other governments) do, things would change for the better.

[chillytoes1]

i love the chick in this one, she is like a female version of the joker LOL!!

[RAGE903]

Mcfarlane make a greath Job!EXCELLENT!

[SilentAlien55]

BEST MUSIC VIDEO EVER. GREAT WONDERFUL EXCELLENT

[AkanwasaIbo]

Ehehevolution but not so fast, not so fast, my dear Americans. Peace sells, but , who is buying?

[mike840]

gotta love the Yield sign gettin blown away......nice. : )

[mm67701]

i hope my mom dies a horbal painful death

[hoohoohooboo]

@qcumbers23

no man, Its the mirror of society ! its because they want you to think and reflect about the "creepy stuff" as you put it, and to realize that its not good and that we can do better! they are putting the nazis, kkk, the beaters of slaves, the emperors and the modern politicians in the same domain - in other words - they are the same shit.

stop watching tv take a history book. if you dont, you ll misunderstand a lot lot more, not just Pearl Jam.

ROCK is PHILOSOPHY!

[jinxedblz]

It's always someone esle for you.. When actually it's humanity itself. We created modern society, we created hatred, we created war and we are now protesting against it and realizing our mistakes.. WE are the ones to blame.

[m4rk092]

I think that if we continue doing things wrong our world is probably going to end like in this video...

[qcumbers23]

Also, what the hell did I just watch. That is some disturbing shit that I saw. Whats with the Nazis, KKK, and the beating of slaves? Pearl Jam racist or something? Creepy stuff.

[attananightshadow]

@qcumbers23... show's our evolution ;)

Pearl Jam definately isn't racist, the vid just highlights how we advance in our evolution, which gets more evil and messed up as we progress.

[hoohoohooboo]

@qcumbers23

no man, Its the mirror of society ! its because they want you to think and reflect about the "creepy stuff" as you put it, and to realize that its not good and that we can do better! they are putting the nazis, kkk, the beaters of slaves, the emperors and the modern politicians in the same domain - in other words - they are the same shit.

[manka6]

@hoohoohooboo You have nooo idea what you're saying.

[hoohoohooboo]

@manka6 well than be kind and explain.

[qcumbers23]

WTF BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

[Arabesquian]

This is the song of a dying planet. According to the Dept. of Defense, there's going to be severe oil shortages in five years unless we change.

I'm scared that I will be among the generation that may witness the death of oil- and plastic-based civilization. It may even be the end of YouTube; I don't know what will happen.

[Womper1992]

I used to not like the girl until i realized she was death, it actually does fit with the video

[MrSoygenial]

the white girl is hot

[MrEfra1983]

Este video, hace chance, cuando era pelado lo vi y me impacto y siempre lo queria ver, yo creo que ese fue el dia en ke practicamemte empece a eschuchar este tipo de ondas sonoras distorsionadas provenientes de un instrumento de cuerda conectado a un amplificador electrico, lo ke llamamos rock. Yo era joven, 8 o 10 años de edad, y hasta ahora...

El video es chevere porque refleja la desconformidad politica, etc, existente en todo el planeta, "Pocos que tienen mucho y Muchos que tienen poco"

[CombatAssassin]

We had to study this clip in Politics class. It's pretty revealing what's found in this clip.

[ThoughtVortex]

i dedicate this song to the great Milton Friedman!

[Jubb3500]

@ThoughtVortex

Milton Friedman. As the producer and co-writer of this video I can tell you that Milton Friedman and his entire "unrestrained Free Market" phillosophy is completely antithetical to what we were saying in this video. The so-called Free Market is part of the cancer that is eating our planet. It isn't free and is definitely part of the problem, not the solution.

[arviman]

the best part is the riff when the goth girl is dancing and it matches so good with the video =D

[livetodie1222]

105 people haven't evolved yet

[lioncrusha]

Charles Darwin must had alot of cock up his ass when he was being taught evolution from satan. Evolutionist reminds me of flys swirming around a pile of shit just thinking it magically appeared and not understanding that this pile of shit was dropped from it's creator.

[gillcio]

@lioncrusha Amen,brother

[eltoro13]

@lioncrusha

lol angry creationalist, keep thinking you are unique and special, and that one day and imaginary magician will come to save you, but remember, in the beginning man created god

[FavioRiveros]

@eltoro13

"magician" 

real mature man!

[TheDermyShow]

@lioncrusha You poor, poor fool.

[Panduhbaree]

woah the video was pretty dark

i like it :P

[napalmdeath16]

history repeats itself,it's our destiny to destroy ourselves ,and then it starts all over again.

[MrJontyp]

[DD8687]

[gingowitch]

most americans dont know what evolution is because they masturbate so much.

[TheBigShack]

I've been the avatar for about 18 months now and pushed in the hurt locker. But now my legs are starting to work consistently honest to God. Its evolution baby! Not your silly version and I'm not 28 yet ;). Oh I'm also married to Lady gaga XO.

ps what next!? Have to go to a local university to learn how to build wings to get to her? Then have to get a pilots license and then have to pass security to prove I'm not G Bush?

Signed BFG Westside represent, peace out LOL.

[unrealassasination]

All Hail Human Nature...Be Sure YOURE COUNTRY will BE in war between now and 500 years in tha future...between this time period youre country will be at war...It sounds harsh but its reality ...Humans are Born Killers...We all are..every human has the will to kill another...And something called like Everlasting peace doenst exist...sadly =(..

[thelastalchemist]

Maaan those 90s were soo damn good

[ManSmokingACigarette]

@zxl345

No not really.

When a girl steps on ant's nest she gets killed by a land mine.

[kbtwrestlinggod]

[MegaNjanja]

we dont need evolution we need revolution

[ArUlric7]

[kyotetwokyote]

[kazinazakat]

@kyotetwokyote todd mcfarlane i think. pretty sure its him

[fordmike]

@kazinazakat Yep...The one and only.

[Jubb3500]

@kyotetwokyote

Go to epochinkanimationdotcom to see who did the video.

[HollandOrange92]

even though it's animated, it's creepy as fuck!

[eImalomeIIeva]

Darwin was a cocksucker

[Darahcos]

[ausfoolia1111]

@mm67701 DMT POINTS TO THE GOD IN US ALL

[SuperBeals]

Reason this one is more popular than the one of Vevo?

Because it buffers faster, isn't weighed down by shitty ads that look like MySpace and don't have 30 second ads in front of them...

[cerbgerm]

@SuperBeals Vevo is garbage.

[kesotone1]

@SuperBeals its evolution of the revolution. i love it when she buffers faster...

[AkanwasaIbo]

@SuperBeals Try to use "Adblock Plus", an add-on from the internet browser ´Mozilla Firefox´-->"Firefox-Add-ons"

[makemarker]

It's pretty comic how we give ourselves all this importance when all our lunacy can basically be summed up in a 3+ minute video. Love it.
