Pearl Jam performs "No More" for Iraq veterans

[ziongp]

Eddie for world president....

[coffinxcandy]

I love this song. I can't say that I'm close to the war effort, but this song brings me to tears and I wish it's lyrics could be true. no more war.

[xsshimlerx]

iam an afghanistan vet, and the first time i heard this made fell sad and shed tears while listening ,specialy for 2 friends of mine who got killed in iraq and afghanistan, i miss you both dearly

[vedderclone]

i think id take a bullet in the back or just about anywhere for the chance to meet eddie and have him write a song for me, like the soldiers he is a hero and he proves it over and over by doing things like this

[puppynut5]

Asa two time Iraq veteran I realize how lucky I was to come back with no injuries. So many times I came so close.Driving over a roadside bomb with it blowing up the vehicle behind me instead. I realize how lucky I am for the couple times that happened but feel horribly guilty about it as well.

I may be out of the USMC and working a different job now,but the nightmares are still there and getting anything done except Celexa perscribed is pretty much impossible.I wish this war had never happened.

[CCDevlin]

I witnessed this song live in Holland. The version was used on the Into the Wild Soundtrack. We sang "No More" with 50.000 people.... what a moment. I felt like finally we could speak out on something together. It's so important. I think that day we felt a small little glimps of what the 60's might have been like. To this day I am proud that I was there and not sitting at home jacking off or something. But despite my pried let's not forget the point of this song: End this nightmare!!!!!

[dirtyfrank81]

this war needs to be stopped. we dont belong in iraq so why are we sending our troops over there to die? its not worth giving up your life for some b.s. war. how many ppl need to die before its over. NO MORE!!

[hollyschmollystar]

Pearl Jam is coming on Austin City Limits soon, and I heard that he will be dedicating songs and appreciating the troops. Nov 21 on PBS local stations.

[staindforever]

This song compliments the documentary very well. I loved Body Of War. I wish everyone would see it.

[reywilliamr]

thomas and other iraq vets from a viet vet god bless you and no more war

[AmericansAnnoyMe]

Service in Iraq is NO badge of honoUr.

[hwj28]

no more war. thank you eddie. I really hope your voice is heard. we need to end this and bring everybody home.

[AdamSheets18]

I wish Eddie would release another solo album with songs like this, Here's to the state of George W., and maybe even the song he did about the White Sox.

[PTurchan1]

Bring my brothers and sisters back please.

[DietrichHoffmann]

Thankyou Eddie. If pictures and videos of murdered children aren't enough to teach people war is horror, perhaps your beautiful music can reach and crack those concrete hearts.

[jsbutty]

what is it for? the twin towers or for oil ?

[KEN305DADE]

WIT HIS LIFE HE SAYING "no more war" MY FUTURE WIFE OLDER BROTHER IS OVER SEAS AND HAS BEEN THERE FOR ONLY 2 WEEKS AND ALRAEDY HE HAS KILLED 2 MEN AND HE HAS SAID HE SEEN HIS "bestfriend get killed..." GOD BLESS

[KEN305DADE]

i love this song.... END THIS WAR.....

[udorilde]

Beautiful!

[ntiego]

thank god for comments like this. i get really depressed reading the pro-bush stuff...its sad and overwhelming. probably abolitionists during the slavery era felt this way also. i dont get people..i really dont. we cant take care of our own people..what business do we have in iraq..none

[FancyPantsElitist]

Tomas is now in a coma. He had an embolism in his lung. Please send positive energy whether through prayer, or just good thoughts for his recovery!

[pooscrog]

Hell yes. Thank you Eddie Vedder. You speak for many. We need to mobilize, I am an Iraq Vet and we need to make a move now, before the election, to shake it and stop racial politics from being 2008's gay marriage. They will use it and we all know it. Now is the time for the IPOD generation (no offense to MAC) to escaope the entertainment trappings and change things. I'll check back here, but perhaps October 2008, on the DC mall. Lets do it. It starts here. 1,000,000 say leave Iraq. 10/18/08.

[tweezey222]

God Bless Our Veterans

[SMoldie]

Thank you.

[jetplane2006]

Nice song. But it doesn't change the fact that the us administration under the current presidency have done and will continue to do whatever the hell they want to and spread their slavery throughout the rest of the world under some new face in the upcoming election.

That is because of the weakness of the american voting public. Only you can vote these guys out and demand their impeachment.

Nothing has changed.

[reywilliamr]

lets end this bull shit now

us out of irag now

from a former viet vet

[zalxemptyx]

[Ryguy5150]

i was just wondering if they were ever going to put body of war on dvd, i really want to see it

[brucegarrett]

it will be released next spring. Ellen Spiro sent me an email from her Iphone lol

[dnelson1977]

i did see it... great film

it was on tv about a month ago

[SpiritualMachines]

You can watch it on Netflix's "Watch now"

[74567889]

This song is great. Thank you Eddie for doing it!

[BelieveYouMe]

Eddie Vedder is a wonderful to write this honest song. However, I think he, Thomas Young, and their peace organizers could have used this opportune and unique time at Lalapoolza better. Instead of telling people to go to websites with their little homepagesm they should have told the Lallopooolza fans to go to their district offices on a specific day that week (when congress members and senators where in their home states in August) to protest this illegal, violent, and endless war.

[hanley33]

Illegal ??? please explain! but GREAT SONG nonetheless.

[sheagiesler]

War is only sad when you are on the losing side. The winners write history and prosper.

[1787patriot]

Thank Youu Friend Your Post is wonderful

[syroste]

Just Beautiful. Thanks for sharing

[bubetoy]

Thanks for this, Jim.

[Minepj]

Thanks! Is there a better quality audio of this around?

[jim294]

I assume the song will be on CD soon. If I hear anything I'll post it here. Thanks for viewing the slide show!

[Minepj]

The slide show is great! T.Young has all of my admiration for what he is doing and Vedder is great as always. I noticed some similarities in the backing vocals here and Harper's on Lollapalooza.

[ebtje]

@Minepj

There are a few decent live versions of this song. Not cd quality of course. I was at the concert in 2007 in Nijmegen, Holland. Pretty impressive I can tell you. It's on YouTube, so take a look and see if you like the sound quality. =:-)

[naberrieskywalker]

and is that Ed and Olivia 3:36 into the video?

[naberrieskywalker]

I mean :52 into it.

[jim294]

Yes, it's the studio version of Pearl Jam's "No More" which, I believe, is not yet released on disc. And yes, that's Eddie and his daughter, Olivia, 52 seconds into the clip.

[alessiana]

Thanks Jim. This is sweet.

[naberrieskywalker]

this is the studio version?

[alessiana]

Thank you. This is wonderful.  Thank you for sharing this one. The photos pull at the heart and the quality and clarity is outstanding. Thank you.

[yerfucked]

Cool!
