i like the structure of this cover better than the original version, it flows better, they dont play a chorus after the first verse, and the dont play the a minor interlude of the choruses, its much better
TrentJD, about your comment on "how bands today just copy bands they idolized" ...
Well actually the grunge bands were tired of flamboyant hair metal and they wanted to bring back good music. This was in the 70's when bands like zeppelin, black sabbath used heavy riffs while being inspired by the raw energy of punk and they wanted to bring that back so they tryed to copy them pretty much but came out with something different.
I watched this live on Dutch TV in '92 and it was monumental show. Years later I read an interview from Eddie Vedder and he said this was one of most important moments his band ever experienced. It was the 1st time that they played in front 60,000 people. He still considers it one of the best shows PJ has ever played.
wat festival do ne of u know that rocks as ahrd as that or any of the festivals b4 1994<<<thats when rock died. but like g-bus, ther must b a resurection
I didn't call them a carefree band. I said that I felt a carefree vibe from the performance because of the crowd. And you disagree but then make the same point I did...Realize what you're reading.
Everbody (In America at least) just seems so damn depressed these days. It seems to have affected the music we hear now. I just get a "carefree" vibe from watching this. All of the modern bands just replicate the bands they used to idolize. It seems like the true essence of rock and roll has faded away. It's all about being rebellious, pushing the envelope, and doing your own thing with passion. Energy is contagious and we just need a few good bands to start another musical revolution.
I would hardly call Pearl Jam a "care free" band. If anything I would say the opposite of what you are saying-- Music in the early 90s was all about a flowering of reality, while music today is pretty souless and written for the sake of getting people to dance.
You should have been there - I was, also at the Tivoli concert; lucky me ;)these are concerts that change you life. They still kick ass with the same intensity as in 92 as they showed last week in NL
yea, but you got to admit, these times were Magic times, they were young, they were Rebel! It was just Magic, on the nowadays they kick ass but in a different way, I wish I could be there in Netherlands in '92... :(
hey that's great! I was there. soaking wet from the rain, but the best show I'd ever seen (and probably the best of the hundreds I've seen after)! Eddie's wearing a T-Shirt of 'Tivoli' a tiny club in Utrecht where they played the night before - even more legendary I'm told. I remember that they played Neil Young's original of this song over the PA prior to the show.
There is not much good music today, but Pearl Jam still plays. Built to Spill is a good band. My Morning Jacket is great. Sonic Youth are still together. Neil Young is rocking into his 60's and on his 5th decade of rock n' roll.
Oh my god all this time I thought i was just weird. I was born in 1990, so i was too young to appreciate all of this amazing music(Guns N Roses, Alice In Chains, Nirvana, Pearl Jam.)
Someone needs to invent a time machine ASAP!
I wish i were like 20 somethin in 1990 and just live there till like 1995, pure heaven
OMG! we're the same! i was born in 1989 but i dig older Rock Music..i think music back then is wayy better than the music these days..I love Pearl Jam,Collective Soul,Nirvana,U2,The Cars,The Doors,Radiohead,Oasis,Foo Fighters (Although some of them still rockin..) The New Bands the i love are Coldplay,Snow Patrol,Keane,Travis..
But whenever i see older bands performing,Goshh!! I have to agree with you,I think we need a Time Machine!!
im guessing your like me in your ealry 20s?? haha yeah i have neaver been to a pearl jam show yet but im guessing eddie does NOT do this kinda stuff much anymore him getting older and all? sad we can only see things like this on video and not real life! but hey at least when pj or eddie time comes to an end people should say! hey that was a damn good band who spoke there minds without being scared and they are were freeless!!
yeah and unfortunately, people don't see bands like this in real life anymore because many of them today are clones of pearl jam (*cough* nickelback)...and like you say, few are fearless anymore.
i like this song anyway, but love this version! hot!

the guitar solo is sick! pearl jams the best! the problem with music today is no heart, no passion,
no creativity, the rock bands from the 90s were too diverse, such like smashing pumpkins,Soundgarden,Stp,
Bush,311,radiohead,AIC,tool,NIN the list is endless...
Im looking forward for the next decade maybe Rock will come back in a big way!
