  • EU AMO PEARL JAM AMO ............CURTAO PEARL JAM NO VOLUME MAXIMO SEMPRE E VIVA NA PAZ......

  • made my night alright when i turned this song on :)

  • im sitting in my room right now with the lights off. this song is playing and i am crying. my life is fine, and nothing is wrong

    .-this song-

  • Gotta be one of THE greatest guitar riffs EVER written...EVER!!!

  • man, he really nals tht SRV sound, classic

  • Unforgettable. This song still makes me smile. Every single time.

  • lots of passion in these songs

  • This song needs to be played in church

  • the last part gives me gooes bumps :P

  • I first heard this song in the car with a good friend, it was on of the most peaceful times of my life and the last time I would see her mom, her mom died shortly afterwards due to Cancer. When this played at the end of 50/50 I almost died. Pure happiness.

  • Pearl Jam are amazing. Let's just agree that this song is an all time classic, and whether you heard it the first time today, or 15 years ago, I don't care. You heard it, and your probably liked it which is the important thing isn't it?

    Keep loving the good stuff :)

  • more of my generation needs to listen to this real stuff besides that auto-tuned bull crap they call "music" amazing song!

  • I have this song, heard it many times. Once it played at the end of the movie "50/50", my heart felt like it melted. Such a great song!

  • shit who hasnt heard this. its been on the radio playing twenty times a day for fifteen fuckin years. great song tho.

  • love it, chamfert bites

  • With songs like this, PJ really are a timeless band. #classic

  • If this doesn't make you wanna just blast it through your stereo than your obviously listening to today's shit.

  • Comment removed

  • I hadn't heard this for a long time before it played over the end of 50/50. Was nice to hear again.

  • i knew this song before 50/50 too but 50/50 reminded me of how good this song was because 50/50 was also a good movie 

  • Turned it way up at 1:52

  • @EddieKuntz94 make me fries?

  • @EspiaDelDiablo yup.

  • I had to google 50/50 to know what the fuck people were referencing here.

  • @JacobFCO same here xD!

  • @JacobFCO Me too. lol.

  • just shed a tear when heard the first chord on 50/50. FUCKING LOVE THIS SONG

  • to all those saying the guitar sounds like little wing by jimi hendrix, thats were he got the influence from...

  • When I die, I want this song to be played at my funeral

    What better way is there to leave this world

  • i cant understand a word he says for most of the song but who cares :P

  • lmao why do people care if people got this song from a movie... talk about music snobs.

  • @emdawn1 What does that have to do with being a snob -_-

  • The first few words sounded like King of Leon's lead singer's voice.... nice!

  • @susionbigtour No, the king of leons lead singers voice sounded like the first few words of yellow ledbetter... BTW, FUCK KINGS OF LEON

  • @213mrbrandon so true

    

  • Kind of ironic how fans of one of the most famous mainstream rock bands in the history of the world can get so snobby about it. This is a b-side that has 4.7 million hits. Get some perspective.

  • @jpencz i agree with your point, but that's not irony

  • The fact that this is in a movie makes me want to see the movie. Otherwise I've loved this song for years and forever will.

  • good thing i saw 50/50,because not only was that a great movie,it also introduced me to another great song by pearl jam

  • @ivan3028

    kind of a shame you didn't know about this song before the film.

    it is a famous song actually. but maybe pearl jam wasn't up your alley to begin with, so who am i to judge.

  • the guitar sounds like little wing by jimi hendrix

  • classic.

  • This song reminds me of Betty-Pratt Johnson. Alki Beach.

  • its up here with lyrics....over >>>>

    

  • huddy ledbetter (ledbelly) peace man 

  • 50/50

  • who gives a fck wot he saying still sounds good

  • lots of hendrix influence here....

  • @meant8 it's a bit of a tribute

  • @meant8 sounds like chords from little wing

  • @meant8 Indeed. The first time I heard this I thought it was Hendrix. I couldn't believe it was Pearl Jam.

  • @meant8 and what a great influence he is =)

  • What the fuck did he just say?

  • fucking awesome song jst wish i knew what he was saying

  • Here are the lyrics to the chorus of this song;

    Heyyyy eyyyy! Can you see demmmm! Out on da porch! and they dont waaaaaavve, and I see them! arounf kjdfkhdfkns dfkjhnbsdkfjnfskjdfnksdjnf!

  • Guess what I just watched.

    (That should suitably annoy a few people)

  • Thumbs up if you knew this before 50/50

  • People will be talking about Vedder's lyrics like they did about Picasso's abstract paintings.

  • this is what the song is all about:

  • @bajuriphd The song was written during the first gulf war, when "Papa Bush" was President, as Eddie calls him. The story is about a young Grunger kid, all dressed up in his flannels with the long greasy hair. His brother goes off to fight in the war and gets killed.

  • @bajuriphd He gets a letter that comes in one of those yellow army envelopes and learns of his brother's death. So, all upset, he decides to go out and walk it off.

  • @bajuriphd i heard theres never been official lyrics released and that they will change up some of the lyrics when they play live so noones really sure what the song is about...i've heard the theory of the war letter but i've also head thories on how it may be referenced to surfing...just saying

  • @MaseWindu420 hey..thanks for the saying..its thoughtful saying indeed.. about the lyrics, Eddie yet was making a joke that there wasn't any official lyrics, and i agree with you, but i am still sure that he has meaning for this song.

  • @MaseWindu420 Eddie vedder has come out and said that it is about a war letter... letters that get sent to the familys of the deceased are yellow... hence Yellow ledbetter. and Eddie had a friend named tim leddbetter...

  • This is an awesome song and iv been listening to it before 50/50 .. but i did just watch 50/50 and its a great movie. Hearing the ending i had to come and listen to the whole song because they chopped the fuck out of it.

  • Loved this song long before 50/50 kids! But it was a great movie :P

  • @curlygrl31 AGREED!

  • @curlygrl31

    haaha ! me too haha .....you tube kids !

  • @curlygrl31 i agree! :) great song! ...greetings from Slovakia :)

  • @72lehotan Hey there :))

  • @curlygrl31 Cheers to that!

  • @Mijicm :)

  • @curlygrl31 what's 50/50?

  • @EspiaDelDiablo A movie ;)

  • @curlygrl31 I've never heard of that song but I still have always loved this song. I hope we can still be friends.

  • @CheetosForBreakfast definitely meant "movie"... well i'm an idiot.

  • @CheetosForBreakfast LOL, it's ok ;) Cheers~

  • @curlygrl31 Referring to people who like it because of a film isn't really a valid point to be honest xD Does it matter how people were introduced to the song?

  • @curlygrl31 oh really? i didn't even know about it.

  • Perfect ending song to a night of drinking

  • watch?v=iD32b_iA2uE&feature=re­lated

    Chilean Eddie Vedder!!

  • wow i freakin love the end. deffinately learnin that riff

  • can't stop air guitarring to that song

  • i want this in my mp4 playing in 21.12.12 lml

  • the beginning reminds me of "black". Great song, though.

  • i love this song and i also love it after watching 50/50

  • I've come from the future... to inform you all that this song is still awesome in my time.

  • Sometimes the music makes a movie so good. Which in 50/50 was deffinately the case.

  • I like how you can't understand a word he's saying yet the song is still good.

  • @designmewebsites and when you have researched the meaning behind Eddie writing it, The song is even better!

  • @tribbleville What is the meaning?

  • @finias246 go to wikipedia and search "pearl Jam-Yellow Ledbetter" It was wrote about a friend of Eddies who receives a "yellow letter" from the military. such a cool song

  • @tribbleville I'm still not sure about the meaning, but thank you. I'll do more research....

  • @finias246 I didn't want to tell you word for word, cause even Eddie changes the lyrics from concert to concert...His friend received a yellow letter In the mail, A letter in A yellow envelope from the military means someone has died, Eddie and his friend went for a walk to talk about the letter and his friends brother who was killed fighting for freedom....

  • @tribbleville ah, so they did change the lyrics everytime.

    Still greatest song ever...

  • @alife2play Yes he does, but the meaning of the song stays the same. Eddie pours so much emotion into this song, every single time I see him sing it. It must affect him in a huge way, he's just an unreal artist

  • @tribbleville Thank you

  • Comment removed

  • @designmewebsites So its not just me then!!! The only bit i can understand is Ah yeeeeeaaaaaahhhhhhh hhahahahaha

  • one of the best songs of the 1990s

  • 50/50

    

  • I don't know about you, but I just watched the movie "50/50". :)

  • One of my new years resolutions was to learn the words to this damned song lol, gotta love it

  • I just saw the movie 50/50... didn't fucking except this movie to end like this... and i said "Holy Shit! This movie fuckin' rox"

  • You know there's that time in my usual day when I get fed of all this hatred, stupidness, people and bad music. It's time for Pearl Jam.

  • you can only sing and understand this song if your drunk or stoned!!this epic song is epic!!

  • the song was used to end 50/50 and Friends. amazing song. we're all gonna hear it on December 22, 2012, aren't we?

  • @zednotzee18 nice way to end the world IMHO

  • all 50/50 soundtrack are gonna be on a freakin cd so soon so i could jam on them when i ride my car what a fantastic soundtrack

  • I don't even know exactly what Eddie Vedder is saying in this song but I get teary eyed, feel a lot of sympathy and get a lil depressed when listening to it and I LOVE it!!! Can't explain, never heard a voice with so much meaning.

  • does anybody understand the lyrics?

  • @Winsorhlb go to wikipedia it tells you about the meaning and somewhat the lyrics, There are no official lyrics to the song, to me that gives it even more meaning. Eddies emotion is felt and has perfect meaning...at least to me it does. that goes for every single version I have ever seen him sing. such an incredible person...

  • love dis song and the way it's sung

  • yea Jimi, like groovy

  • @jukedar and the wind cries mary...
