  • Rob, you are dying ...and far away from me in miles and mind, but always in my heart..... I am stroking your hair...like you took care of me.... as you say, (said), "forever and a day..."

  • it hurts... but it is soooo touching & beautiful!!!! Eddie Vedder's a genius.

  • does anybody know of any other bands that sound like this?

  • Eddie Vedder isnt one of the best song writers of our time he is the best

  • CHECK OUT MY BAND!!!!

    and

  • I DONT KNOW IF ANYONE can notice this.... But I bet 10.000 bucks that Eddie took PART OF the music from the BLACK BIRD by the BEATLES, listen to it carefully ... when he sings "slide up next to me"... Its the same melody as "black bird singing in the dead of night, take this broken wings and learn to fly, all your life, you were only waiting...and so on" Except its slightly modified, but its still there... Of course i dont mind him...

  • @SincereART It's 3 double note variations on a G Major chord, hardly unique to a song from the 60s... I can think of tons of songs that use the same chords. If you want a genuine example of plagiarism, Given to Fly sounds very like Going to California by Led Zeppelin. But Led Zeppelin outright stole some of their songs off others too.

  • sad but divine!

  • @fullimmerzion the 3 words to describe this song.

  • slide up next to me....

  • I Love You Beth.

  • Soundtrack k můj život má jen jednu píseň.Konec je soundtrack k mému životu. Myslím, že teď už víš proč .........

    "I waited all day. you waited all day.. but you left before sunset.. and I just wanted to tell you the moment was beautiful. Just wanted to dance to bad music drive bad cars.. watch bad TV.. should have stayed for the sunset... if not for me."

  • god bless youtube.. thanks for this

  • why is there no audio in the beginning?

  • Tellement merveilleux!

  • /watch?v=cenOQ3nmhzI

  • i almost never post comments on youtube videos but i need to say this: STRAIGHT TO THE HEART. made me cry!

  • 2:50 he's sad :(

  • Eddie really needs to stop smoking and drinking. Maybe if he did then his voice would regain some of its old power.

  • @Dudalizer It's quite hard, he's been smoking and drinking during the whole gig in Mestre, Italy. :P

  • Weird how I'm the only one to think this, but perhaps he's singing from his dad's point of view? "It's my fault now I've been caught a sickness in my bones"- his dad had multiple sclerosis. "I just hate to leave you here with the kids on your own"- his divorce.

  • Wow...this has left me speechless and teary eyed. Beautiful. Reaches straight into the soul. Eddie...bless you.

  • eddie vedder has the best voice ... PERIOD (:

  • EDDIE VEDDER <3 =')

  • He's got such a special voice

  • his voice cracked at 1:09 XDXD but more seriously now, that is one awesome song written by an amazing musician, wish there were more like this

  • To me this song is an apology to his wife and children. He was "Eddie Vedder" before he met his wife and now he has to continue to play the character as well as being a devoted husband and father to his 2 children. He now realizes that his time is running out to do both and this song tells his side of the story.

  • Great!

    Wonderfull!

    I'm so glad!

    Eddie is a great human being.

    Thank you!

  • Legend...

  • @Titek01 living legend isnt he

    

  • it´s amazing how a band can be even better after all those years!! Eddie, we are waiting for you hear in Brasil. I have to see this alive!! Then, i can die happy and in peace!!!

  • @will61191 just so you know that was me that gave you a thumbs down and it was a complete accident...i meant to do a thumbs up actually

  • it´s amazing how a band can be even better after all those years!! Eddie, we are waiting for you hear in Brasil. I have to see this alive!! Then, i can die happy and in peace!!!

  • This is a copy off my life

  • Beyond Amazing... There are No Word's To Describe...

    This Goe's Out To My Special Darlin',I Love and Long For You...

    Thank You For Letting Me Share Your Soul...

  • @MsGuitargoddess Aww No your the amazing one baby

  • @MsGuitargoddess Hi sweetie :)

  • There will NEVER be another Eddie Vedder

  • eddie é um deus!

  • I cry everytime I hear this song. Eddie you will always be my hero no matter what.

  • I heard this is about his father who died of cancer when eddie was still young. His mother left his father when she found out the cancer.

  • Please "tough guy", The poor use of works!!!!

  • I am a 34 year old man, tough guy and a devout Pearl Jam fan. This is the the only song I have ever heard that makes me cry like a little fuckin baby. I mean tears actually flowing down my face, runny nose the whole pussy bit. Amazing song.

    My eulogy for sure.

  • same here....

  • this is awesome!

  • he surely lost someone that was very close to him, one can tell a performance is from the heart or acted. Or he's a damn' good actor.

  • i wrote in an article in some magazine that this song was written after he thought about him dying... and as i'm a huge pj fan, i can surely tell ya, that he definately sings and plays from the heart. there's no acting. :)

  • my insinuation about eddie being an actor was purely ironic ; of course he's singing and playing from the heart, no doubt . Even in this performance, with a sore voice, it's so beautiful......

  • oh. i missunderstood you... i thought you were like.. someone who didn't know their music and stuff.......... that's embarassing.. sorry...:)

  • no big deal, 2 pj fans can never get into a fight...

  • @elenivanable

    ironic is not the same as sarcastic

  • @josevaldesv

    as a matter of fact you're right. Thanks a lot for correcting me...

  • bow down to a living legend! :)

  • @wceazza damn right

  • @wceazza precisely!!!

  • This performance was excellent and so appropriate on the ABC-TV show CASTLE episode "Sucker Punch"

  • How dies music make it's own way to just be so amazing, so pure, so perfect....

  • Eddie Vedder is one of the best songwriters of our time! Hands down!

  • @Mikeyfra41 and Thumbs UP :)

  • 1:05 e 1:28

  • love the song one of the best inspiring song for my

  • To oct4gon, yes only 185 views. If they want more fans, then how about making the new record available "to the masses" . I understand you guys don't like big companies, but big companies provide jobs for people, even ones who distribute RECORDS.

  • perfeito, eddie é um DEUS! *-*

  • Before I disappear

    Whisper in my ear

    Give me something to echo

    In my unknown futures ear

    My dear

    The End

    Comes near

    Im here

    But not much longer

  • I've never been a rabid fan of any band but there's just something about PJ that resonates with me. You know a song holds up when the lyrics alone give you chills.

  • You know, PJ will go down in history among the best: The Beatles, Led Zeppelin, The Eagle, I can go on. The quality of this writing (as is so much of their stuff) is timeless. Oh how great it would have been for Eddie and John Lennon to have met and collaborated!!

  • Its my fault, Now I been caught A sickness in my bones How it pains to leave you here With the kids on your own Just dont let me go Help me see myself Cause I can no longer tell Looking out from the inside of The bottom of a well I yell Its hell But no one hears
  • Slide on next to me Im just a human being I will take the blame Bust just the same This is not me You see Believe Im better than this Dont leave me so cold Or buried beneath the stones I just want to hold on And know Im worth your love Enough I dont think Theres such a thing
  • What were all those dreams we shared

    Those many years ago?

    What were all those plans we made

    Now left beside the road?

    Behind us in the road

    More than friends I always pledged

    Cause friends they come and go

    People change as does everything

    I wanted to grow old

    Just want to grow old

  • awesome

  • Brilliant!

  • not alot of ppl know that they played in austin. i knew. i really wanted to go but wasnt able to. i love pearl jam. this song proves that they better with age.
