While you were sittin home alone at age thirteen Your real daddy was dyin, sorry you didnt see him, but Im glad we talked... Oh i, oh, Im still alive Hey, i, i, oh, Im still alive Hey i, oh, Im still alive Hey...oh..."
  • Grunge will never die

  • there's just one word for this

    awesome!

  • aguante pearl jam

  • Dave Abbruzzes rocked those drums. Matt was great in Soundgarden but his current sound seems so much tame since the grunge days.

  • What show is this on?

  • Saturday Night Live

  • they nail the solo on this!! one of SNL's great moments!

  • Do you think backstage in their SNL dressing room, they thought they just rocked millions of TV veiwers and would still be here today 17 years later???

  • who knows man, I remember being 13 years old

    watching this very same video on some tape I found around the house and ran to buy the record and being kinda dissapointed cause this is even better then the actual record!

    lol I love pearl jam since that very day...

  • Pearl Jam is (by far) the most wonderful rockband that i've ever seen... and i've seen a lot. Ten album save my life, realy. They play what they fells. Like ed says... "i was alone,... and far away, hey.. when i heard the band start playin..." I'm still alone, but i fell better now :)

  • I always loved Eddie's stage appeal. Now that he's in his 40's he can't really do the stage diving and the crowd surfing.

  • No seriously!! How are they morons? I just had to ask!!!

  • the way they look, the way they move, ummm the way he talks when he's not singing, their horrible grungey dress sense haha. The only people i've seen in real life who look like this shower are homeless.

    But like i said, the music is brilliant.

  • Brilliant I agree - or probably even better than the B word. This is legendary. In regard to their clothes and whatnot: It's in the beginning of the 90's or so. What did you expect? That they would dress for the future? ;)

  • They didn't look like idiots? Come on: They looked like something out of a fucking comic book bro' ;)

  • Pantera bad-ass?

    lol

    they look ridiculous

  • PEARL JAM=

    "The best Band in the Fuckin WOrld"

    thats all...

  • that is the biggest rack tom i have eva seen

  • they need WAY more performing space!!

  • thanks to all the people whose make posibe to see this pearls at this times of mushit.. it was a great season!!!

  • PRIMERA ACTUACION EN TV

  • pearl jam still alive in our heart/.

  • that whammy at 4:24 is sick!

  • incredible wha wha!

  • Thanks for the post.....EXCELLENT!! Does anyone have the Even Flow video??

  • Pearl Jam FOrEver!!!!

  • thanks for posting this video!

  • best SNL performance ever...too bad he doesn't rock like this anymore

  • eddy had some pipes he cant do it like this anymore but who can...great performance

  • abbrussaze on drums what do u expect this was the real pearl jam,

  • That is simply the best musical performance in the history of Saturday night live. Thanks a lot for posting it!

  • I agree!!!!

  • I think Faith No More's performance of 'Epic' would be up here with Pearl Jam's 'Alive'. Both performances had so much energy.

  • Eddie plays guitar on some songs. Sometimes he'll come out before the opening act and play a few songs solo with the harmonica around the neck thing- it's pretty cool.

  • Pearl Jam is the nEw LED ZEPP, Here and NOW ...!!!! because de fkin sound is Xtreme and powerfull, like a Lions, God Bless Pearl Jam.!!!

  • I believe that you would be referring to Soundgarden, Chris Cornell defiantly gave the band a Zeppelin vibe

  • no i was talking bout when pj sacked their drummer dave abbruzzese, who was a fucking legend

    but i like soundgarden too

  • dude why did people give u thumbs down? I don't remotely agree with u but why do people have to dismiss a negative comment about the band? Ur intitalled to ur opinion

  • ppl dnt like 2 admit that abbruzzese is a better drummer than krusen, irons or cameron...

    pearl jam were at there best when they had a groove going as the backbone of their songs (via dave a, gossard and jeff ament) now wit cameron his beats are simple punk beats with gay lil fills, and his approach doesnt suit the band, if he stayed wit the same style he had in soundgarden then everything would b fine

    sorry 4 being preachy

  • hear hear

  • agree there

  • Pearl Jam is so kick ass, they have the cure for cancer.

  • I first saw this many years ago, when it was first on SNL. At the time, I had never heard Pearl Jam at all.. This performance blew me away and I've searched for it all these years to show up again somewhere. THANK YOU!! for this, I LOVE it!

  • Amazing performance. One of the best bands to ever hit the stage. Glad they're still around. Hopefully for a long long time.

  • Pearl Jam is and always will be better than Nirvana period....

  • Hey, Hey, Hey...calm the fuck down and take your medication. It's stupid to even compare the two. One is in the underground tradition of grunge and the other is in the hard rock tradition of grunge. They're based on complety different sensibilities of rock and both were the best of their respectitve backgrounds.

  • nevermind. i just watched the ending. and asnwered my own questin =]

  • did eddie have all his hair in that hat? or did he cut it?

  • lovely solo in this performance, one of my favorite, and don't start fights on these comments it makes you look like an idiot when you criticize someones comment.

  • The best ever......................

  • thank you i feel the same way why do dick head people watch the video in the first place if they hate the band that much?

  • i do believe that my good friend can play this song better.... YNGWIE MALMSTEEN IS HIS NAME ./.. and scamming ladies is his game

  • well..thats fine for you and your boyfriend..

    but why he isn't doing it then?

    just do it and cut the blahblah

  • youre good friend?

    Yngwie is indeed one of the best guitar players ever (G3 etc..)

    but what has he to do with it?

    lame ass

  • you are gay you should not say that cause no one iz better than peal jam or plays the song better

  • eddie vedder's voice is awesome. i hate that, of the four really big grunge bands - alice in chains, nirvana, pearl jam, and soundgarden - nirvana's the one that got the most notice. the other three were incredible bands. RIP Layne Staley.

  • bassface...i think nirvana got the most notice within youths in the 90s. becuase they released alot of emotions in there music tht many teens felt aswell. thats why they got the most notice in my opinion. becuase it had such an impact on teens overall it was noticed by the press etc and they became huge that wway. each band u mentioned gave off an impact in a different way.

  • Great performance of a great song. Thanks for posting it. Pearl Jam is the best!

  • Best use of a whammy bar during a solo. EVER.

  • By far the best performance of this song. EVER.

  • Can people stop turning this into a Nirvana vs. Pearl Jam thing,people who prefer Nirvana must be just as petty and insecure as Kurt Cobain if they feel the need to mention Nirvana on Pearl Jam videos.Pearl Jam have outlived all that grunge rivalry crap to be the greatest band in the world,Nirvana on the other hand...

  • Stop turning into a Nirvana vs. Pearl Jam????? YOU JUST CONTRIBUTED TO IT YOU STUPID ASS. But yes.. good song.

  • i love this video eddie looks great

  • ke tal video.... OH IIIIIIIII I'M STILL ALIVEEEE......

  • sinistersane you are one the the shitheads who read too blender magazines perhaps you take thier comments make it your own making you looking smart.. You dont know music making stupid remarks, fuck you and get out of your basement!

  • amazing

  • anyone know what year this was from?

  • Ninety-Two

  • eddie lost his pipes just like maynard james keenan from tool both greta performers in their day but they get old like everyone else... great performance..brings back memories with dave on the sticks

  • eddie is the hottest person alive and you kno it love you eddie....

  • They were certianly in something of a slump a couple of years back but their last couple of albums have been excellent. I saw them live a few years back and they kicked ass more than 99% of the "new" bands that are out today. Total props to these guys. Rock on!

  • pearl jam may have gotten worse over the years but kudos to them for lasting this long and still getting out there and playing shows and making music.

  • Pearl Jam sucks and they are boring. They only have a few good songs thats all. Their last album with that avocado on the cover was a complete joke how bland can you get!!??? Kurt Cobain would laugh at that album. But I guess all you need for people to like a band now aways is to be reeally loud! and be distorted! Oh yay! Nice Brain fart of rock n roll this is!

  • stfu u can dislike and u can find them boring but don't say they suck, u suck more saying that

  • ...you really don't understand nothing about music..The pearl jam's guitarrist is one of the best of the world...and they are a very consistent band! I saw them last friday and they still rock! you just that its cool to like nirvana! and I enjoy nirvana's music but I really think Cobain would appreciate pearl jam..and if he would not, fuck him..He is not a god!

  • just because I don't like Pearl Jam doesn't mean I don't understand music. Its my opinion. And I could give a rats ass what people think is cool. I like Nirvana because they were interesting they weren't my fav band but I liked them. And Kurt hated Pearl Jam check out some interviews from him genius.

  • Oh right Pearl Jam's guitarist is one of the best in the world yeah right. Thats like saying Billie Joe Armstrong is the best guitarist in the world just because you like the band. John 5 and Slash could kick his ass on the guitar even if they are not my fav guitarists either.

  • I don't care how much Pearl Jam has rebelled against the music industry and tried not to follow the rules, and didn't like the fame of being rockstars as much as the next band you can still believe in that and still be a boring and crappy band.

  • He has technique and creativity! I prefer John Frusciante than Slash or John 5! And it's not because of his technique, I like the way he sound, the musicality. I think you have the right to express your opinion, but I didn't like the way you did it

  • but Mike McCreaddy it is one of the best...if you dont´t like pearl jam then why are you here on their video? nirvana never ever had the skills on writting music or performing live that pearl jam have

  • If you use another person's opinion(like Kurt Cobain) to support your critic it's not really a constructive one

  • Nirvana and Pearl jam toured a bit along with the chili peppers, but Cobain absolutly hated Vedder..... which isnt surprising

  • cobain didn't hate vedder.he just hated pearl jam.he actually said that vedder's a nice guy.

  • Explain to me how you can hate Pearl Jam but like Eddie Vedder

  • the same way how i hate a football team but like a particular football player

  • you share somethin common with kurt cobain

  • There are so many holes in that paralell that i'm not gunna bother going into it.

  • if you dont´t like pearl jam then why are you here on their video? nirvana never ever had the skills on writting music or performing live that pearl jam have plus the new record is really good it´s just very diferent to the ones before...it´s just agressive in a good direction not just anger

  • they keep ruling over those victims of fashion neo rockers kids of today, they are the king of grunge

  • Eddie Vedder = "We're not worthy! We're not worthy!"

  • creed sucks and i love nirvana and pearl jam, and the solo in this is unbelievable

  • To quote magickjac:

    Creed?haha!

  • that's so goood !

  • Creed blows. Nirvana blows. Trent Reznor is the cure for all of your musical malfunctions.

    btw-- this video rocks.

  • creed blows,i agree.but nirvana!!???dude!!go fuck urself!!!!

  • rofl creed is the worst excuse for a band ever. AiC, Pearl Jam, Nirvana, and Soundgarden all dominated the grunge scene back in the early 90s. viva la grunge

  • i agree creed did really suck

  • Actually Grunge was defined as a "culture" thing and a music genre...It's just the bands around here didn't want to get stuck into some pop-culture genre, so it went away. Grunge is basically punk rock riffs with organized palm muting. Oh, and they liked Drop-D tuning a lot

  • Creed? haha!

  • awesome performance of an amazing song!!

  • chupenmela todos los que hablen mal de mi banda favorita fuck youuuuuu yankees

  • bien pedos en la orilla de la playa en taboo toda la banda de bachilleres 2 acapulco. y el gallito pidiendo tabacos a los gringos...

  • awsome song,but,nirvanas good too.

  • Has sharon stone shown her grown?Eddie is still cool after all these years and this song will transcend all wannabe's

  • Sharon.....ahhhhh!!!!! fuck fuck fuck!

  • \m/ the best grunge band they own nirvana

  • They are sick, but I wouldn't call them grunge. Neil Young and Crazy Horse is the best grunge band of all time.

  • this video is soooooo sic they look so grungey init hey type in the search bar zac getting owned and go down to the 6th one and that is me. brb ....lol

  • =O excelente presentacion

  • agree love alice n chains

  • 1991 was such an awesome year in the history of rock. 5 months before this, heavy metal hair bands were still running the show. Turn on MTV and all you saw was giant Jon Bon Jovi hair cuts. Suddenly, Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Soundgarden, Alice In Chains all come out around the Fall, and that part of music history was done overnight.

  • thank you for you comment

    i no speak english!!!! (que indio ...)

  • great performance...dave abbruzzese def their best drummer

  • "This guy who was on the phone, turns around and tips his hat like this....and who do you think that guy was?...Emilio Estevez...the mighty duck man, I swear to god, I was there...of course you were, you were the one who yelled the Breakfast Clubbers' name...I was like, "EMILIO!"~~~~Steve and Doug Butabi

  • jesus, pearl jam is the reason i wake up in the morning now

  • ??????!! you are crazy!??

  • haha why? u miss dave?

  • that night on snl they played daugther too...anyone know where i can find that performance? if it's on youtube i can't find it

  • That was a different night dude. It was was promote their new album "Vs" in 1994.

  • your right....emilio esteves hosted when the played daughter...it was right after cobain died

  • emilio estevez???"""

  • yes....pearl jam performed on saturday night live the year cobain died.....they played daugther and then eddie pointed to the k on his shirt for kurt....emilio esteves hosted the show that night dumbass...learn english by the way

  • love this performance

  • Great solo!

  • best band in the world...they are still amazing

  • I also think it's their best song and this snl performance which i also have is their best perfomance i've ever seen.

  • Definitely agree that its a great performance. I saw them several times back then, their shows were always this good. Haven't seen them in at least 10 years tho.

  • He's only resurfaced in a rock/funk/jazz project with some old friends... Abbruzzese was an amazing musical fit to PJ's music.

  • eddie's voice is not from this planet :) fucking awesome boundaries

  • Davuzz Abbruzz, best PJ hitter, ever!!

  • there's only been 2...

  • thers bin way more than 2 (cameron, krusen etc)

  • i know there was jack irons too...but camercon and abruzzee were the only two worthe mentioning

  • PEARL JAM ROCKS \m/

  • This is my favorite McCready solo as well, it really makes this performance even more alive, pun.

  • Eddie almost looks like he was tweaking during this perfmormance.

  • best pearl jam song

  • need i say more???

  • mola mazo Viva Nirvana y Pearl JAM

  • amazing, pearl jam are gods

  • out of all of Mike McCready's "Alive" solo's, this one is my favorite, not as long as the other ones, but still kicks some major ass
