was anybody at Groundwork 2001? Seeing PJ and Rahat Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan do this in Seattle a month after 9/11 was one of the most incredible moments Ive seen on stage.
@StraightPunkEdge93 Nusrat had died before this performance. Eddie dedicates this performance in the start. He is sitting with Rahat Ali Khan, the nephew and successor of Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan.
@ScopeDentarro Don't hate people you don't even know man. You are just getting anger inside of you. You should fight that with love, love for your life, for waking up and living another day.
@ScopeDentarro Well, they might just get another kind of experience when listening to this than you are. The fact that they post comments like the ones you quoted doesn't make them "gay" just a bit more apprecieative for the music we are listening to. They are not the assholes here, you are. Some people are blessed with a slightly bigger vocabulary than yours and are able to express how they feel when they listen to music. Saying "this song rocks" doesn't describe this song at all.
pearl jam amazing......rahat fateh ali khan who is nephew of the great pakistani singer nusrat fateh ali khan who sang in the original song....does a wonderful job. 5 stars man
@thelostpiranha Ya, its actually Pakistani Sufi touch... One of the most famous singers Pak has produced... sa re ga ma pa dha ni sa could be related to doe re me fa so la te doe
@hauntedrooftop because h e is true musician, that's why...sorry, that was a dumb question. it should be better asking, why don't we see them together more?
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Good version of this song up till about the 4:10 mark, before our Indian friend on vocals goes a bit nuts and demonstrates the reaction to eating a hot vindaloo curry. I go blind and babble after one of em too.
Vedder attended San Dieguito High School, now called San Dieguito Academy. Vedder donated proceeds from a 2006 Pearl Jam concert in San Diego toward the construction of a theater for the school in the name of his former drama teacher, Clayton E. Liggett. Liggett was Vedder's mentor in high school. Vedder wrote the song "Long Road" (from Merkin Ball) upon hearing of Liggett's death in 1995.[76]
Scott Stapp is one of mayor responables for destroy grunge reputation. With his shitty songs, he helped to MTV to make people believe that it's not necesary have feelings for apreciate grunge music, and they turn this "grunge" (post-shit-grunge) in stuff like Poison without make up. Fuck Scott Stapp, and more important, FUCK MTV!!!
this is a badass opener... or first song back from a break... picture it... the band sitting in a circle... acoustic... would be nice. I like when they open with Of The Girl, too. what can i say? pearl jam can do no wrong!
When they put my body on the funeral pyre, I'll request this song be played. What better way to transition into the next realm than having this work of beauty lead the way? peace -
nice to hear a variation on one of the absolute finest tunes in both the Pearl Jam and the venerable Neil Young's discographies....besides, its all one song.
To the comments about the Pakistani singer overdoing his part: he's only restricted to Sargam(sol fa...) and without actual words to sing, has to make do with intonations.
wowwwwwwwww!
