  • I love this song, but oh! my God, this video is so creepy.

  • i dont even care that the vid is crappy i just luv the song :):):):):):)

  • Wow all you open minded free thinkers sure are critical any time a thought, interpretation or idea doesn't fit into your little box. You critics are so in tune with the truth I admire you .

  • HAHA he gets her with a daisy pump BB gun!!

  • the 1 thing i would never do is hit a women..Powerful film clip for thoughs who have,

  • Publicidade vai a merda.

  • I think alot of the beauty in music is derived from the personal experiences and meanings people derive from them. The same sentence can be read in many different ways, and the same applies to lyrics. I don't think it matters if you like the song, the band, or know anything about them. The simple fact is; Its entirely opinion. You like it or you don't. You care who Eddie Vedder is or not. That's no reason to try to change other people's opinion, especially by QQing about it on Yutube. Go heroes

  • @ITouchGoats

    That being said, I like the song and the video. I think it's an interesting interpretation of the message they were trying to deliver, and I commend you. The camerawork is a tad amateurish, but there as a time when Vedder's guitaring was a tad amateurish too.

  • is this the real video

  • @drag0n3y31 READ THE INFO BAR

  • @excitinglifeofmadi they tried to find a cool name and i guess it just popped in stone gossard's head and they kept the name thats what they said in their documentary.

  • This is one of my favorite pearl jam songs, and they never made it a single and they didn't even liked it themselves because it was "too commercial" ugh they were do far up their own ass...

  • La canción es muy buena, pero el vídeo es horrible.

  • ummm... i think this is really good and i don't know why everyone's being a little bitch about it.....

  • I love this song.Reminds me of my ex husband.Makes me wonder why I stayed so long,but I had a beautiful daughter.. so it wasn't as bad as all that.I am now married to my soul mate/best friend and about to have our first child July 24,2012 :)

  • Lol, everyone on here DOES understand that all songs are based on your perception, right? Songs are whatever you can take away from them... so stop complaining.

  • Awesome video.  I HOPE that is not based upon a true story

  • @DanmanT15 you are one angry kid! just cant figure out if your jalous of Eddie's voice/music or the fact that you cant get a dick in your mouth yourself!

    aside from all the hate, GREAT SONG lets not forget!

  • @roeterdink21 Wow, that DanmanT15 is beyond crazy! lol

  • Pearl Jam...can't find a better BAND!

  • 1:31, Eddie vedder, just cant resist the urge to stick a cock in his throat, which he's so used to singing with. So listening at this point you will hear him say "man", however it comes out "maEEEEERRRRRNNNNN". This occurs when Vedder forgets to sing "man" with a cock jammed in his throat, so half way through he jams one in, to give us that ever so hated Eddie Vedder sound.

  • @DanmanT15 This video has almost 3million views and you're saying Eddie Vedder has hated vocals?  You're jelly bro.

  • i think you misunderstood the meaning of the song

  • Awesome Video, hard to do but fun, i know, way to go and thanks

  • HORRIBLE VIDEO, GREAT SONG !

  • I had the feeling somebody was gonna pull out a gun... good video for a great song

  • Can't find the butter mam'........

  • Great video...you have a lot of talent....make movies....

  • Make it easy, let everybody have their own missinterpretations and dont share them... and dont complain about other peoples missinterpretations make your own mistakes!

  • Wow, did Michael Scott make this video?

  • @LiteratureInterviews Ha ha that may be the best insult yet! lol

  • @LiteratureInterviews I love you.

  • @LiteratureInterviews Uh oh... clean up on Isle 5!

  • @LiteratureInterviews DUDE,,, THAT IS PROBABLY THE FUNNIEST COMMENT I HAVE EVER HEARD.....AND YEAH, I WAS EXPECTING AGENT MICHAEL SKARN TO POP OUT SOMEWHERE. HAHAHAHHA..DUDE, NO HOMO, BUT YOU AND I NEED TO HANG OUT ....THATS A GREAT SENSE OF HUMOR.

  • Am i the only one that knows what this song is really about?...........you people need to crack a book or do just a little bit oc research on eddie and pearljam. Do any of you even know where the name pearljam comes from ?

  • @sunamcmnairb Dude you need to chill. You are the 875th person to complain that the song doesn't represent the songs true meaning. Who cares?! It's my interpretation not yours. Go on with your life.

  • @obiwankubrick hey guys, the important thing is that you both found a way to feel superior to the other!

  • @sunamcmnairb Please, I speak for all of these Comments, enlighten us with your knowledge or interpretation of "Better Man" and a quick historical background on how Pearl Jam name was found.

  • @gsus723 I second that. if you people are all so enlightened, tell us what's up. if you're so damn smart, let oithers know at least where to get the information...youu don't even have to tell us yourself, just let us know how WE can know...I am tired of internet assholes claiming they know everything and yet they never give any facts they just go around complaining about shit.

  • @sunamcmnairb What does the name of the band have to do with this song?

  • @sunamcmnairb Fuck off dude, that's not wht music is about. What Eddie says the song means to him doesn't mean that's it's only meaning and what it has to mean to us. People can take songs and interpret them anyone that works for them.

  • Every interpretation of a song/poetry is valid...it means whatever someone thinks it means. And, if you publish your interpretation in a public space, you are making yourself open to the critic's eye. It's how art works. Both reasons are why art is important to us.

  • @obiwankubrick I think you did a good job on the video. Oh and @JudoinKC, frankly it doesnt matter WHAT you think it should be. Everyone has their own interpretation of music. Easily: STOP BEING A DOUCHE.

  • god they are terrible at this, the song is good though.

  • recently i had to watch a video in school for poetry and it compared song lyrics to poetry. the examples they had were crappy pop songs by lady gaga and others. then all of a sudden this song comes on, surprisingly, no one in my 8th grade class knew this song or who pearl jam were but that didn't really bother me. it still made my day

  • @ZondaRon64 It's sad what music young kids don't know about/

  • @ZondaRon64 some of my friends tell me i listen to crap. like i told her i was going to see pearl jam and she said she didnt know who they were so i played some songs by them and she told me its crap it means they dont kno what good music is

  • It isnt the message that eddie vedder was getting across but thats the beauty of music, is that everyone perceives different songs in different ways and i think that you did a really good job on this video. congrats :)

  • If you don't like the video then don't watch the rest of it. Just stop after a few seconds -___- I liked it, much better than staring at a picture or lyrics on a black screen. :)

  • I hope them actors have a day job.

  • wwwgreatbuyoutletscom

  • whoa wrong video for the record ive never hit a girl or anything like that and i would never do that and this video sucks bad

  • nicole when i was a jerk i didnt understand how i was im guessin its a bit like this song im so sorry angel. life has been utter shit since you left i miss you everyday and i cry a lot. i know that i will never get over you im sorry angel i miss you i love you

  • This video blows but the song kicks ass

  • this song is the best

  • Love this Song

  • lol what a cheap video gayest pimp slaps ever

  • lol what a cheap video

  • @SPURS1FAN96 Lame. No one thumbed up your dumb comment. lol

  • @InaGameComa Hahaha that would never come to my mind lol

  • Well I think the video is good,the song excellent of course.But the slapping should've been a little more drastic (just for the sake of the video) even though I do not agree with physical violence towards anyone,any kind of abuse to me is just wrong,that's all.

  • i like the part when the kid smacks his girlfriend. priceless. hell yeah good video dude

  • That girl is nice and Thick and she looks good too!

  • You are all MENTAL! ABUSE IS NOT FUNNY!

  • @malinoisone I do totally agree with you

  • lol love the part where he was beatin her. he wasnt beating her because she loves some one else. he was beatin her because she was out of the kitchen

  • I have that exact dresser lol

  • Yah FFS......you dont even know that Its suppose to say Dear John....Not Dear Joseph, Everybody knows that...Screwed up the easiest part

  • really, stop saying it's a bad vid! like y'all could do better?

  • dude your video sucks balls!!! no offence

  • @cma2380 dude, make a better one, give constructive criticism, or shut the fuck up

  • Comment removed

  • the butter man is with the muffen man

  • WTF type of ending was that?!

  • @CreeRawkz Right ?

  • Great song but this music video SUCKS GIGANTIC BALLS!!!!

  • because this idiot really screwed it up

  • Nice ending

  • The beginning sounds like Soundgarden's Loud love.

  • Love this song and that's why I came here but the video not only sucks you missed the meaning of the song... first of all it's not referring to two separate men she is dealing with it is her abusive relationship and changing emotions towards ONE man she is dealing with... ask Eddie Vedder he will tell you the man it's about is "the bastard that married my momma" as he would put it... but in the end she still loves him and stays with the one that abuses her... doesn't leave for another man

  • @JudoinKC glad you typed this out for all of us who understand this song

  • @simbear125 my comment wasn't directed at you or anyone that understands the song it was directed at obiwankubrick (the guy that made the video) so don't read the comment since it doesn't pertain to you

  • @JudoinKC you shouldnt judge ... this is what he/she believes the song is about... ever heard there is no wrong answer??? that is called an opinion deal wit it ... your opinion is not fact bro

  • @lowbob39 that is not my opinion that is what Eddie Vedder himself (the guy that wrote the song) has said in multiple interviews it IS fact and has been proven so stfu

  • @JudoinKC Lmao, WIN. You jus got told obiwankubrick XD

  • @JudoinKC Just stop crying that the video isn't what "you" want it to be. It's my interpretation you moron.

  • @obiwankubrick now you are misusing the word interpretation... interpretation means to bring out the meaning of something and you didn't do that you changed the meaning of the song

  • @JudoinKC You're arguing semantics. This is my video and it's what I want it to be and represents the vision I had. Not yours. You need to get over that and relax.

  • @obiwankubrick you can argue about it being your video all you want cuz it is but Eddie Vedder had a very specific message when he wrote that song and you missed that which means you have never REALLY heard this song

  • @JudoinKC totally agree with you.

  • @JudoinKC Your argument kind of defeats itself. Yes. It's ,y interpretation of his song and not his interpretation of his song. Just because I made the video my own interpretation doesn't mean I don't understand his interpretation.

  • @obiwankubrick Look, you had some good shots in there. But watching it is confusing because I know the song. So its like watching something unrelated with better man thrown over the top. You have the right to create whatever you want, thats true. But when you create something and put it on youtube, there is an audience, you've created something for the public. So are you really making it for you? When people comment about it then, you can't get angry.

  • lol i love how pearl jam's singer like sings backwards

  • cant find a better man.

  • 401 people think JohnLawrenceCobraKai is as intelligent as he does.

  • Is there any video where Bieber isn't on it when he has nothing to do with it? Smiles good song,xo

  • Comment removed

  • @toreachbrandon You're obviously one of them. You faggots spam his name on every music video.

  • Comment removed

  • @toreachbrandon Who the fuck are you to judge someone for the music they like? Especially coming from someone who spams Justin Bieber's name on a totally unrelated video? You're a fucking joke. Who would take anything you say seriously?

  • Comment removed

  • @toreachbrandon I know what you said. The lyrics are part of the music, you dumb cunt. It's ironic you mention ignorance. Laughing out loud! It's the pot calling the kettle black. Laughing out loud! You're obviously an insecure faggot since you feel it's necessary to spam every music video with the name of someone who is totally unrelated to this video. Get a life.

  • Hahahahahha I almost pissed myself watching this..... its so cheesy... and full of Cliches......  The song is awesome, why would you make such SOFTCOCK video for it.

  • in a way, that was horrible

    but it was also really good.

    good job mates (: sad story though

  • 04:24

  • best song ever.

    ever.

    efffffff all those losers.

  • what's with the large number of dislikes? Pearl Jam is not pop??

  • The slaps are so fake but other than that it's a good clip and a mad song

  • So did he shoot her with the pellet gun or not..?

  • Last time I watch this one, damn 45 second add. Haha, I guess I have to not be lazy and put the CD in.

  • The slapping parts, cmon.

  • @Molyneaux88 Hey, that's what it's about, abusive relationships....

  • @gnatpiz They were cheesy.

  • I lost my dad almost 3 years ago and this was my mom and dad's wedding song. I'm only 16 now and I still cry almost every time I hear this song. I live in CT too, thanks for the post, it's cool seeing my state and my favorite and most meaningful song.

  • You did an amazing job on this video. The video is just as powerful and full of emotion as the song. I give it thumbs up.

  • god can i totally relate to this one

  • I love this song it's so beautiful yet so sad.

  • @InaGameComa let us make an entire song parody

  • Im not gonna bitch about the ad, but seriously why can't the video stream underneath it? my internet is a little bit slower than most and I'd like to at least be able to watch the video when the ad finishes, not have to wait a few more seconds for my video to buffer

  • @kilosnew My question exactly.

    

  • What an ending!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • the video really fits the mood of the song :) good job!

  • She dreams of margarine on her bread... cant find the butter man

  • Now you guys got me thinking about a butter man... I bet I can find one.

  • Those are some weak slaps, you have to get a full range of motion and use the back of your hand. :P

  • SHIT LONG COMMERCIALS...

  • pesimo video, pesima actuacion, = a chupenla

  • @InaGameComa she dreams in butter, he dreams in bread. still can't find the butter man!

  • She lies and says she's in love with him...can't find a better man.

  • Amazing job on the video. I love how you made it your own and how you captured the meaning of the song. Very well done Especially for doing the acting urselves:)

  • I don't know why you all hate the video. It may not be the best filming ever, but he did a very good job of portraying the song for what it means.

  • God this is retarded, but the song is great of course

  • i like the song, but some of the acting was a little cheesy

  • fucking retarded video

  • If he gave you a pat on the back....youd list it on your resume!

  • Touch me Again- Ill kill ya Bruce Willis, the last boy scout

  • NICE JOB!!!!

    

  • i cant stand this video but the song makes it all better:DD<3

  • She dreams of curry, she dreams of me. Can't find the butter, man.

  • wow tis video is amazing, look at the the video for it happened today, totally different but same style plus eddie does backing vocals, again i must say this vis is so amazing

  • THUNDERCATS HOOOOO!

    

  • this song reminds me of my mom. she lied about being in love with my stupid ass step dad for years, so glad she finnaly left him

  • You really filmed this? You're very talented! Well done! LOVE THIS SONG! Well, love Pearl Jam in general. Spent middle school and high school playing the same CD's and over and over.

  • this video sucks thumbs down for you

  • @SCVPIRATESA1 trolling, much?

  • Good video. I loved the "thrashing" he gave her.

  • OMG! THIS RIPS MY HEART OUT!

  • Nice video.

  • why did pearl jam have an intro for another intro? love this song. RIP 90's

  • I have a hard time believing anyone would be afraid of that little guy and the smack scene was hilarious! Good song though.

  • oh i forgot to mention, for how u interpretted it, it was a really good video for a fan video. even though i dont think thats what its abt, you displayed ur interpretation of the song really well.

  • not to hate but the song wasnt abt the woman cheatin on her husband and then him beating her. it was abt a woman whos husband wants to have sex all the time and beats her. hes not the man she fell in love with. hes changed and she doesnt love him anymore. still, a good attempt and a decent video

  • I have exact same dresser in that room in mine!!

  • This song/video makes me so emotional. It's just amazing.

  • thi is like my favorite song ever :)

  • Please make more videos. This provided hours of entertainment for my friends, and I. I wouldn't worry about using that girl again though. I wouldn't fuck her with Rosie O' Donnell's Dick. Who did your fight choreography Jackie Chan? So believable. Maybe use a little more Michael Bay slow motion technology. Also Haters keep on hating that shit cracks me up.

  • INCREDIBLE video! You did a fantastic job. I don't know who would make negative comments to you about this. My Dad always told me....."Some things are better left unsaid" and if it is going to hurt someone, that's even more of a reason to keep comments to oneself! This was awesome and I am old enough to be your grandmother.

  • LOVE THE SONG, the vid is a lil amateur but that nots not what matters.

  • omg that was awesome. the only thing i wish was different: i wish the slaps were more believable :( otherthan that, GREAT

  • The million dollar question: is she dead; or did he get he get blown?

  • sounds like bruce springsteen

  • thatwas good but i found it when he hit her halerius cus i could tell he was holding back laughing

  • fuck the haters, good video at least you got off your ass and did something rather than spend all your life hating on you tube, like the other sad fuckers. nice vid . peace

  • cant find the butter maaaaaan!

  • Nice!

  • lmao video is terrible

  • Beautiful interpretation of the song, thank you for sharing!

  • Love the song but, the video is LAME!!!... sorry man

  • oooh soo good. i really like how u made the video to go with what you think the song can mean. i would never had the nerve to make a video like this. lol but i looove it. ^^ very good. :)

  • Dude. Amazing view to an amazing song. Really reaches in and pulls out the depths for the lyrics in your own personal view. People expect hollywood when they watch a music video... For a decade ago this is mint.

  • when i was a kid my mom was abused and hurt by some fuck. i tried to fight back and got my ass handed to me. i remember listening to this song over and over again and wishing that this fuck would leave. this song gave me hope, and one day he just left..my mom cried for days but i kept saying she will find a better man. now that i am huge i would have killed that guy if i had another chance. my mom found another great guy before she passed. R.I.P MOM

  • This song reminds me so much of the situation my sister is in...
