at every concert he says something different with this song and somehow it just doesn't matter. beautiful song, beautiful voice, beautiful man and somehow with this song the words just do not matter, love you Pearl Jam!
When i was in their concert here in Brazil ... When they played this song , somehow my faith in humanity was restored ... I could see a perfect world for those 5 minutes or so ... Was a magic moment indeed that i'll never forget ... Brought me joy , happiness ... Probably the best concert in my life , even thou it was raining
he makes up different words to sing everytime he sings "yellow led better". and people think they know what he is going to say. thats why he is smilling. and the people are crying because, the music moves them not the lyrics.
Knowing that this kind of music (along with others like Red hot, foo fighters, etc) still fills up stadium makes me still have hope on music, even tough the music mainstream is a bunch of crap.
One of the best things about this song is when Eddie says "Make me cry..." when the solo starts. I don't know if he says it here, but It doesn't matter much, this song is fuckin' awesome any way you spin it.
@knixon1972 I'm not sure 'cause I wasn't there, but It seems the Foro d'assago in Milan. I can't tell you tha day, but I'm pretty sure about the place.
@Cowboyup170 He's a good rock singer but not a very good vocalist over all, I can think of plenty of other singers in history that were just incredible
In one of my exams to get into uni I read the first question and thought fuck, wrote some shit introduction, lost hope, and this song began to play in my head and I let it for three minutes then got almost full marks in the exam, so for my place at university, cheers guys.
@kkwillsaveus Yours is my new favorite Youtube comment. Thanks. Feelings mean more than thoughts. Sometimes I think Eddie should be considered more a visionary than an artist.
All I can state are facts. Eddie graduated about 6 years before me in Encinitas, CA at San Dieguito HS in Encinitas. The only thing we have in common is our HS and a one time meeting. We partied and had a great time. He actually drove a used Green Convertible Cavalier to the party. He's a great guy. In my mind I don't think anyone besides him (Even the band) will know what was originally put down on tape. He's a great Musician. Will always be.
I think it's crazy (great) how connected the fans are to Pearl Jam. And none of the band members have ever been a show boats. They 've jumped around and got crazy having fun in younger times and playing their music, but it's always about the music.
Everybody looks so tired in this video, Eddie's leaning on the mic stand and Mike stands almost totally still during his solo. Haha, Pearl Jam's getting elderly. They should take a nap in the middle of the show.
I like Pearl Jam.. but really... FUCK NIRVANA they are shit, people only like Kurt Cobain because he blew his brains out, the guy was nothing more then a whiny emo bitch and people are to stupid to see that
these are the real lyrics, this song is about his friends brother dying in war so its an song against war, if you listen to it a couple of times u will get it. only this version cause the studio one is fucking crazy.
PEOPLE! There is no written lyrics to this song! It started as a simple riff that mike started to play, and the rest of the band fell in, and eddie just mumbled words, there is NO written lyrics, read there book, it proves it! THUMBS UP SO PEOPLE CAN SEE!
well..i took a look at every Yellow ledbetter video they got here on youtube. and eddie changes to words everytime. i think hes just singing what he feels. But every version sounds great!!!
I don't listen to this song for the singing quite honestly, I couldn't give a damn what eddie's saying, I listen to it because the guitar brings me to tears every time I hear it. It's just so beautifully played.
I think he sings it like that cause, the studio version is meant to be really unclear, due to the crying he had when he found out his friends brother died in the first Iraq war.(what the song is about)
@minotsam yeah man definitely :) he just makes it sound awesome on every performance maybe because he changes all the words whenever they play the song. I couldn't care less i still love them :)
at every concert he says something different with this song and somehow it just doesn't matter. beautiful song, beautiful voice, beautiful man and somehow with this song the words just do not matter, love you Pearl Jam!
