Pearl Jam Yield Television Commercial

[fentdog84]

Yield is an absolute masterpiece, hands down their most ambitious & inspired record. Whilst it isnt quite as accessible as Ten or Vitalogy it really grows on you the whole album joins itself together perfectly- its not just a collection of great songs, its a full listening experience, as in you are meant to listen to it the whole way through. thats what makes it PJ's best album

[ancalagog6]

does anyone else dream about just driving down a completly empty highway with nothing but desert or grassland for miles in all directions just like in this commercial? I do.

[naypi83]

awesome view...wonder where is this place? anybody knows? pls. tell me

[jetsonic69]

any reference to the movie: into the wild? =)

Didnt the kid drive through the desert??

[thunderFence]

this commercial was for yield 1998

into the wild was like 2008 or some shit

[ancalagog6]

true but the book, and story had been around for a while and im pretty sure Eddie read the book long before working on the movie.

[Germanjorge]

A human being that was given to fly...

[AllThoseYesterdays]

my first pearl jam cd! and to this day my favorite pearl jam song! i've had this album since 1999 and it's still in perfect condition.... plan on it being in the same shape after the next ten years.

[ImyOUrcrEEp]

I remember the PJ show here in 91 and i was into them before ten came out.

[OlebeustvdK]

I most certanly would have bought it after seeing this, if I hadn't done so before!

[Phgr28]

This was My first pearl jam Cd =)

[DigitalRecursor]

I remember how surprized I was to see a commercial for Pearl Jam considering how anti-commercial they'd been in their early years.

1998. Goddam where did the time go?

[billyhay]

pearl jam gives me a concrete mustache every time! awesome

[Jibiti]

Why did the car disappear at the end?

[GrungeRock1991]

why not?

[rojas1546]

I first got into PJ when this cd came out, THey are now by far my favorite band still all of their albums are great

[birdonawi]

one of the best rock albums ever made!

[anth711]

thats so rad

[BlueMoonStar82]

i remember seeing this on tv and being excited for days... thanks for sharing :)

[RollingThickandHeavy]

that commercial & Yield made me a Jammer!

[quentinbeagle]

damn. brings back memories of freshman year of college. ahhhhhh

[benwolf888]

that's awesome

you get to see where they shot the pic for the yield cover

amazing album

one of their best by far

[MaybeMemories21]

i agreeee!!

:D

[autopilotoff3323]

watching this makes me wanna play nintendo 64 and rock with Bill Clinton...better days.

[thunderFence]

yeah... good times

[Cizcan]

They made a commercial?...

[edved13]

But being the best live band in the world does make u cool

[foolmoon70]

ISN'T THAT THE (82-85?)DODGE CHALLENGER HATCHBACK?

IT FEELS LIKE AN OLD 80'S CAR COMMERCIAL WITH ALOT BETTER MUSIC!

[thunderFence]

Pearl Jam was best when Epic/Sony were guiding them instead of Ed & The Cunt Squad from TenClub

[cobainkid]

yeah, it's always better when a corporation makes decisions for a band instead of the band itself... ass.

[thunderFence]

look colonkid.... anti-corp doesn't make you cool

[CurseForThisTown]

Yeah, you're point is weak thunderFence. Pearl Jam were best when they were making the music they were happy making, and making the choices they wanted to make. And it's hardly like Sony/Epic were dictating PJ on what to do - PJ have always been respected as a band who have done things their own way, i.e. releasing Who You Are as the lead single of No Code following up Vitalogy.

[thunderFence]

damn good point

[rechasmed]

is there any vc for 'given to fly'? or whishlist? yield is my all-time favorite album

[rechasmed]

very2 cool
