Pearl Jam - Marker in the Sand (Webcast Clip)

[rafagee1]

I think that he is disgusted how both sides of the conflict he's alluding too use god as an excuse for their actions/

[PKTrekGirl]

Crazy Eddie Eyes! 1:54 I love it when he does that! LOL

[josipache]

AMOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!

[BenteSugarvenom]

why shouldn't he be an atheist?

fckgdthisrocks!

[macdaddyluigi15]

LOVE THAT FREAKIN CHORUS!!!!

PEARL JAM ROCKS:p

[racerwes7]

look at matts vocal mic! its bouncin like a motherfucker hahaha

[PearlAnatta]

Eddie is indeed an athiest. He's said it many times (eg. I'd like to thank God who I don't believe in"). The religious ones among you should not condemn such a good human being that. The fact that he has different beliefs should be embraced. And just because he talks about faith doesn't mean his religious. Faith can be in almost anything.

[dlbbc94]

um i dont understand the song. can someone explain it to me??? its great though thats for sure lol.

[melbchrissyboy]

I always felt it was about the War on Terror......

[dlbbc94]

Perhaps! Thanks for sharing.

[goleshuachipato]

booooooooooooooommmmm gasper

[ThrashSnap]

i luv how the song changes so much thruout. one day ill have the chorus in my head then the next ill hav the verse.

[stmburg]

It never fails to amaze me how people believe they can decipher the entire psyche of a songwriter simply from their lyrics, and how they bend each interpretation to suit their own beliefs. Artists are not meant to be known inside-out, nor fit into the label we make for for them. The great thing about Eddie is he will always challenge and confound his biggest fans....and that's why we love him

[hugermb]

they're yelling boom, not booing

[hugermb]

they're yelling boom, not booing

[dingie74]

and omg they're actually booing that song _O-

[enfieldcc4eva]

boooom

[dingie74]

Always good to get the christians all fired up, whehehe.

[jankapoker]

The gospel of Vedder is the one and true word.

[revolutionday1]

This shit makes me wanna' go gay. Maybe it's Matt Cameron...

[GTFman]

I love this song!! Bonaroo '08

[greenday5454]

im sorry for yelling lol

[greenday5454]

maybe i am mistaken?

[greenday5454]

eddies too cool to be atheist even if he is its really not bad he can beleive what he wants right?

[greenday5454]

yeah shut up eddie isnt an atheist

[jord619]

Does it matter?

[HolyHell999]

It my seem hard to believe, but... Eddie's an Atheist.

[manarfd]

what do you expect him to be??

religion is for suckers who have to believe in a greater power..you dont know what the church or jews or anyone control..religion is the richest industry in the world..nothing more..eddies a samrt man for being an atheist..

[trocker4evr]

atheist or nonconformist? Does he not believe in god or just distrusts organized religion?

[mmmartynek]

WTF?

[frane00]

Eddie is my GOD

[videoFFAAMM]

"burn the bridges before you walk them down..." lol

[potsos]

I'm about 100% sure none of you have any clue if EV believes in any gods. Throughout the years, his lyrics have mentioned god(s) and alluded to religion both positively and negatively. On this particular song and on the album as a whole, I'd say he's disgusted with it.

[kknay]

of course he believes in God, he don't supports the hypocrisy of the priests and the president bush. sorry for the atheist

[faustopego]

I'm actually an atheist, but I do really think that E. Vedder made himself look like someone that believes God in this last album.

[toejam699]

fuck.. sensational.. whent and saw they when they played sydney australia.. gr8 night got smashed and moshed away.. and im 42 lmao

[leoboi85]

eddie, believe in anything u want,just keep doin this amazing job with PJ...

[Maatsoul]

eddie atheist??.. please tell me I'm wrong

[huaracagrande]

eddie an atheist??? where the fuck did you get such stupid information? i suggest you first do your homework and then you can talk with the truth, otherwise i suggest you shut the fuck up PRASIDDHA!

[prasiddha]

I am serious. I am no atheist myself. But like a lot of other PJ fans, am obsessed with Vedder. I went to a "celebrity atheists" website (google it), and read an interview w/Vedder, where he says he's an atheist.

[huaracagrande]

eddie is just trying to fuck with you, his mom is catholic and his dad was a baptist, ok so he grew up non-christian, but i'm sure he believes in god, plus he says it nearly every interview that he thanks the one up above for having a life and a beutiful daughter. ATHEIST?? SHUT THE HELL UP!!!!

[bassetc]

Is there something wrong with being atheist?

[Eddiemily]

no, i just became one within a year.

[kotrin]

@bassetc No.

[loushi]

Actually, if you read the lyrics to the entire song, you hear alot about his personal opinons. I kind of agree with him. Where is 'GOD' in personal crisis? Why would 'GOD' let good people die?

PEARL JAM FOREVER!!!!!

[loushi]

Yeah, Eddie hs some very religious phrases in this song.

"Misunderstanding,... what original truth was

And out expanding,... in a faith but not in love"

and

"Those undecided,.... Needn't have faith to be free

And those misguided, there was a plan for them to be

Now you got both sides claiming killing in Gods name

But God is nowhere,.. to be found conveniently"

[atthegrindhouse]

Follow the link to the person that originally posted it....most of the songs from this show are there.

[friendswithbenefiet]

why are there people who are yelling whoo in the crowd? the song is great!

pearl jam fan for ever

[atthegrindhouse]

They are saying "Boom" (it's the name of the guy on the piano). PJ Rules!

[friendswithbenefiet]

how.. thanks .. I didn't understand that :)

[prasiddha]

It's because Eddie was making fun of how the mood of the concert is turning "church"-like (remember, Eddie's an atheist. I've read some interviews in atheist websites where he was pretty outspoken against religion)

[friendswithbenefiet]

thanks man.. I like to know as much as possible about pearl jam but it aint that easy like whit the red hot chili peppers(alsow a great band) 'cause the haven't a book like anthony kiedis .. so thanks for the information about vedder been an atheist

[loushi]

Actually, they have several books that have been written about them. If you are a true Pearl Jam though, I don't reccommend reading them. They are all written by people who are obviously biased against the band. The band is kind of portrayed as boy band-can't play thier instruments-sell outs. Really, it's disgusting that people truly hate PJ, especially Eddie so much.

[friendswithbenefiet]

oh that sucks..

[cubicleboy]

he's not an atheist, he just doesn't believe in the orgnaized religions that try to cloud people's minds with all of their BS so they can't think for themselves.

[friendswithbenefiet]

they've got 5 or 6 really good songs on theire last album but this is the best! verry good.. his voice is so great live! en the band plays alsow soo great live! they rule

pearl jam fan for ever

[tomest1980]

[BelieveYouMe]

f*(&in' amazing! God, it must have been so great to be in such a small venue!

[givenTOlisten]

OMG! simply wonderful! This song always cheers me up!

[babylonkid]

[BelieveYouMe]

Hey, that's interesting...I bet they would make an amazing duet...

[edtheved2]

spirit of pearl jam!!!

[Sandizza]

BOOOOOOOOOOOM!!!

[prasiddha]

I hate the way YouTube keeps deleting these awesome webcasts. And why does it seem as if YouTube keeps getting awesome vids of music removed?

[pacch]
