  • This is not too difficult a song....missed picking in the lead, Eddie Vedder not really doing the vocals justice....they sound like a local cover band here...

    

  • Inenarrável!

  • 12 people are E.T.'s

  • pink floyd who........lol

  • Heard this on the radio while i was running. does it bring back anything ? :)

  • are you kidding me?? learn the song eddie!! he was tripping over his tongue the whole time! he was looking down at the lyrics but apparently couldn't see them!! 2 thumbs down!!

  • I'm a Huge Pearl Jam fan. I think the Music was good on this but Eddie's voice just gets worse and worse. I think he did terrible here. Sounding more and more like goatboy everyday. Not even close to what he once was. Still love him though

  • @ji122470 His voice just aged, Show me one great singer that sounds exactly the same at the age of 47 as he did in his 20s. It's just not possible. Your voice changes a lot over the years, it get's older, more used and it also mature.

  • @JTGyoyo Totally agree with you. Not sure alot of it's just his voice, What's with the michael buffer fade on every word he ends with? He never used to do that, it's annoying. Someone needs to tell him to stop the shit..

  • @ji122470 It's just on this song I think, he doesn't do it on the Into The Wild CD

  • @JTGyoyo You're right, he doesn't, but man for the last few years it's gotten worse and worse. That has nothing to do with his voice, just his delivery..It's a bad habit.. ahhhhh ahhhhhh ahhhhhh after every word is annoying. That's all I'm saying..

  • @JTGyoyo The smokes and wine don't help either

  • @ji122470 Never said that it did lol but your voice will change no matter how little you talk, if you don't smoke, don't drink it's just shit that happens xD

  • Really; all this arguing over a great song. It will always be what it is. A legendary Pink Floyd song, one of many that speaks to all. Yet, this is a brilliant cover of it. Eddie Vedder's voice and passion rings true throughout the entire tune. So instead of posting such an array of bullshit, enjoy it for what it is...

  • AMAZING.

  • Mike...Mike can play ANYTHING!

    

  • OMG when he says "is it just a waste of time"

  • god damn it !!!! shut up !!! it;s pearl jam singing mother, shut up already and enjoy the show !!!

    Long live PJ.

  • Never have I heard any one say " break my balls " with such passion. Long live EV and PJ.

  • man, did I just shed a tear? fuck

  • this song is very beautiful

    by pink floyd or paerl jam

    its very nice i love pearl jam and pink floyd

  • Lmfao Stone right when the song ends.

  • What a shit!!!! Pearl Jam it's a good band, but this version was bad!!!

  • when jesus meet god

  • Astonishing...

  • the wall was based on syd barretts life you tards..basically an autobiography set to music

  • @Pnkfyd man you've got it all wrong pearl jam are a brilliant band so was pink Floyd. Someone who clearly loves the Floyd as much as i do. Does not need to hate on 1 of the only true rock icon bands left, for tributing pink Floyd. Would you feel the same if Metallica tributed Zeppelin ?? I wonder!! Or muse tributes queen! The list goes on! My point is it's a respect thing. From one brilliant band to another!

  • @yield269 you're right about one thing the wall and final cut albums are as emo as they get. But syd Barrett was not in the band during those albums! As I'm sure you know! As you said it's all about the music so I shall fuck off now. Going to see Roger waters in Sydney rock on fellow rock lover...

  • 1:18 FUCK HELL YEAH

  • Es la mejor versión de Mother que he escuchado!

  • 11 people built the wall without help of their mother

  • Comment removed

  • ESTE SEÑOR NO TIENE FRONTERAS.

  • Behind the voice of Angel Gabriel was Eddie Vedder...c",)

  • thanks so much for this !!!!

  • Weak guitar playing. There should be a lot more picking along with the strumming, that's what makes it a Gilmour rhythm. Lead guitar is quite good and Eddie sings it well.

  • Comment removed

  • "Mother, should I run for president?" YES, President Vedder.. you should. That just sounds right.. President Vedder.

  • That was beautiful. Easily my favourite Pink Floyd song. It sums up a lot of Roger Waters insecurity, emotional and maternal issues, . Eddies voice and range are perfect to express the futility of conflict and war with that scary cry for help. There aren't many better songs around to show you how desperate a mother can be to protect her son. Such a brilliant song.

  • So touching

  • can u imagine being his daughters and having him singing u a lullabye? 

  • This is actually very beautiful, Im impressed, normally i hate covers, but yeah this is good 

  • Ooh

  • Mike Mccready, ladies and gentlemen. I'm sure he made David Gilmour proud

  • @swirlingsand45 You are wrong, who wrote the wall was Roger Waters. So who needs to feel proud of is Roger Waters

  • now,all the fucking children will say that they are pink floyd fans,just because they listened to pearl jam playing this music,if i see an emo wearing a floyd t-shirt,i swear,i will kill the mother fucker

  • @pnkfyd "emo" people don't listen to Pearl Jam. If anything, your dumbass comment is the most "emo" thing I've seen in a while. Have a nice fucking day.

  • @pnkfyd Not a cool Pink Floyd fan like you, huh? What has more 'emo' lyrics than The Wall or The Final Cut albums? Syd Barret was about as 'emo' as they get. Like Pink Floyd, Pearl jam was before the 'emo' thing. Its about the music and you dont have any authority over who likes what.

    You should look for the similarities rather than the differences. Perhaps then you will overcome the anger you have. You kinda sound like a dick. Now, younger folks will think all Floyd fans are dicks too.

  • @yield269 I agree with you, I hate how people talk about this emo crap anyway, if a song is depressing, and has emotion who cares, if a song doesn't have any emotion, unless it is musically brilliant, or funny, why even bother listening in the first place? Music is about emotion, and expressing it!!!

  • @pnkfyd You're a piece of shit. You dont deserve neither Pink Floyd's nor Pearl Jam's beautifull music and skills.

  • WTF..!!! 1.30 Eddie has the most amazing voice on earth!

  • Very ambitious to cover Pink Floyd, but WOW. Great job.

  • Great cover! Awersome! I love Pearl Jam

  • great cover...Eddie u r the best

  • have to say this cover is better than the original..awesome pearl jam.

  • @santoshzoso Come on dude... Don't say such a stupid thing...

    Nothing, I repeat, NOTHING is compared to Pink Floyd.

    But I agree Pearl Jam has the right to cover any Floyd song.

  • @santoshzoso uhauhauhauhaauhauhauhauhauhaha­uhuahauhuha......auhauhauhauha­huauhauhauhauhauhahuauh.......­......auhauhauhauhauhauhauhahu­auh....dont make me laugh you emo please uhauhauhauhauhuhahuahuuhauhaha­uhaauha oooooo god please give me patience with these children pleeeaaaseeee,go wear pants and then try to say something

  • @santoshzoso I agree.

  • ok sos grande

  • Comment removed

  • Before the solo, in 3:00 . He talked like a red neck. HAHHA

    Beautifull song beautifull cover!

  • awesome vocals! incredibly tight band. loved it!

  • Great song. Love Pink Floyd and Pearl Jam versions. Does anybody know where I can download Pearl Jams version?

  • Big Pearl Jam fan, don't really like what he did with the vocals here

  • @Maytag818 then ur not a big pearl jam fan.....r tard

  • @vedderclone Hey jackass adults can like one thing an artist does but dislike something else they do. Only giant assholes think every single thing someone does is good no matter what

  • @Maytag818 moron....dig a bigger hole....sorry gonna listen to an awesome song and not argue with muppets with u.....BUH BYE

  • @vedderclone That's barely English try again

  • everytime i listen i love it more, its fucking phenomenal....like 2 beautiful worlds colliding in a perfect moment

  • and this is what happens when the two greatest bands in the world mix together..

  • la vache!!!

  • best live voice ever...

    

  • @robert5465 I love them and I love Eddie, but I wouldn't go THAT far. Bruce, Billie Joe from Green Day, Chris Cornell, all have better live voices in my opinion. But Eddie's is certainly excellent

  • te amo eddie

  • I love it!!!

  • Good cover. Eddie needs to learn the lyrics a bit better though.

  • @gperkins151 ...Vedder even changes lyrics to his own songs depending on personal / political / emotional circumstances....after Floyd, PJ is my favorite band and I love seeing them cover the likes of THE WHO, PINK FLOYD & Mother Love Bone...it's a fukn shame that it will take this band to be gone, b4 the "mainstream" world realizes how great and impactful they really were...they shunned fame/videos just to prove music is ALL emotion

  • @edvedd19 I hear ya about Eddie deliberately changing the lyrics on other songs/performances, but here it sounds like he had a memory slip. As for pearl jam being under-appreciated, I agree 1000%. I hate when I hear people say that they lost interest after the first few albums, as Yield, Riot Act, s/t and Backspacer are among their best work. Not to mention the fact that they have the courage to take chance musically, following their artistic notions rather than the dollar.

  • i was in the audience for this. i teared up

  • @Rustyy444 So Cool!

  • wow, beautifully done. one of the best covers I've seen them do. gave me goosebumps

  • that was the most incredible cover of one of my favorite songs.

  • bellisimo

  • My fav song with my fav band...more than heaven could ask for

  • the best version ever made..indeed surpasses the original, it is my humble opinion

  • @jmanno1973

    surpasses the original...ummmm no...but good version...original is what it is...the original...

  • Fantástico! 

  • I just love this song and now my all time favorit band plying it is just mindblowing

  • Heard it live at Buenos Aires just yesterday! it was amazing!!

  • @petaka89 me too! goose pimples...

  • 4 people thought it had to be that high

  • I think Eddie Vedder is the greatest singer of our time. He's just so good all of the time and everytime he covers a song, he does an incredible job.

  • merci

  • Essa eu vi ao vivo aqui no Rio. This one I saw live at Rio de Janeiro !!

  • Complete Zen! I love this band!

  • Thank you.

  • Dude, I think I just filled the cup...

    

  • Perfect!

    Best with pearl jam.. =)

  • if u dislike this video, u really just dislike yourself... go jump off a bridge, shoot yourself in the head or overdose on sleeping pills because you are not worthy of living on this planet!!!

    PJ dominates again and again..

  • Se me paró!!!!!

  • d~.~b

  • Go Pearl Jam

  • Typically, I don't like live versions of songs and I especially don't like live versions of a band trying to redo a classic, such as Mother. In this case, the song sounds like it was written for Vedder's voice. In my opinion, The Wall is one of the best Rock albums every produced but I think Pearl Jam does a great job with the song.

  • What tv show is this from?

  • @Sitopia Saturday Night Live!

  • Eddie Vedder, long the a rock god...

  • i wish he'd sing the gilmour comfortobale numb chorus.

  • The song itselfs makes me cry, but I wipped with this version :,)

  • ....is that Jon Lord from Deep Purple on keyboards?

  • @ARDUNNO Boom Gasper

  • @Negonzalez1 I wouldn't go as far as sucks but I do prefer the original too... if anything it feels like they tried too hard to STICK TO the original, and it came off a little flat...

  • Amazing!!

    

  • hardcore pinkfloyd fan, this dame good job.

  • one of the only bands that can pull off a pink floyd cover

  • @Jakeisaawesomedude Shins version of Breathe was better.

  • Good cover, but still nothing like the original version. PF is the greatest band of all time...hands down. They shouldn't even be allowed in the competition.

  • Excellent cover by Pearl Jam !! Pearl Jam .. is perhaps the best thing my ears have heard and my heart as felt !!

  • ...Excellent...

  • cover de Pink Floyd

  • @PFguitarmate83 god shut up asshole its a cover its not the original go listen to the wall for the original.

    cant stand people like you. always complaining!!!!

  • Ahahahhahahah, hey SouthernTraditionsWA - take it easy man... Relax, its just a song (besides Eddie Vedder is a million times a better singer than Waters...)

  • Everything was acceptable but Matt Cameron's drumming ... I know his drumming is great in soundgarden but , for other things is to dry, to solid, no feeling, is flat and boring ....

  • La puta madre.

  • Sounds like Eddie didn't know the words...

  • @ou1248 It doesn't sound like Eddie didn't know the words, he just made it his own. He is one of the most talented musicians in the world. He has also said that Pink Floyd is one of his favorite bands. As a Pink Floyd and Pearl Jam fan, I can honestly say that this is the best Pink Floyd cover I have ever heard.

  • Great tone at 5:07 and throughout

  • Comment removed

  • it feels that Eddie feels this song :)

  • @calixa this band sings...so many amazing songs..you gotta look in to them , you wont be disapointed

  • Ed's voice is like a fine wine... fuck he's amazing.

  • Speachless!

  • pink jam.. pearl floyd.. stupid i know, but this cover sounds great

  • Pearl Jam el sabado 01 de octubre en la television norteamericana haciendo Mother de Pink Floyd

  • awesome

  • BEST COVER EVER!!! I'm waiting for you guys!!! In less than a month you'll be in Argentina!!! THUMBS UP IF YOU AGREE!!!

  • this band is great.......what else do they sing?

  • Podes ser mas Grande Eddie Vedder??!!! TREMENDOOO!

  • Awesome as fuck..Anybody else notice that Eddie kept looking down at his feet @ the lyric sheet though? shiiit bro..that's rough for a live tv performance..still sick though.. Long live PJ!!!

  • Wauw

    

  • it was a great interpretation, but Eddie messed up the lyrics badly

  • @perrrcibal I choose to see it like he is trying to sing the song his own way!

  • @perrrcibal I choose to see it like he is trying to sing the song his own way!

  • @perrrcibal when????????

  • @Sgabroz in the 2:20 ,an i like the guitar solo.

  • Great tribute from a great band. Eddie is a very talented man

  • So, so, soooo good. Love it!

  • Nice but Eddie screwed up the lyrics a bit.

  • I don't know if I have heard EV's voice better.

  • Please tell me there's an mp4 recording of this. I needs

  • Eddie...just when I didn't think you could get any cooler....damn you're fine!!!

  • I would like to meet Eddie in person.

  • @moron32 I was lucky enough to meet him, and he really is a very nice guy in real life too!

  • Qué pésima la voz de esa oveja....

  • DOUBLE CLASSIC

  • Oh my God, both bands I really love

  • pink floyd 2 de marzo en chileeeeeeee aya estamos

  • The next 20 years with Pearl Jam will be.. .just amazing.

  • Increíble, magnífico.

  • Was this the first time they have covered this song live? I know they performed part of a different song called Mother by John Lennon years ago (1998) as a tag on Daughter..

  • I love Eddie Vedder's deep voice... excellent cover for an excellent song from an excellent band.

  • Absolutely incredible-Ed's voice is terrific and the band sounds incredible! Love this!!

  • Not the best cover, but I mean it's a tribute to the best band on Earth. That counts for something.

  • @Fhernxndo correction it is a cover from the best band on earth.

  • @matjennifer Pearl Jam is good, but can't comparte to Pink Floyd.

  • Eddie´s voice is like hot apple pie on a cold winter´s day, or like cold beer on a hot summer´s day...whatever you prefer.

  • perfect
