  • one of PJams best think I was about 12 of 13 when i first heard them, and back then i regret to say i was listening to bands like limp biz, deftones and chili peps, and knew i loved music as it seamed to go right to my core, Pearl jam helped me evolve that need for music into a creation of music thx PJam, oh and im 25 now

  • Ived loved them since i was 16. Im 26 now... yeah, took me a while to catch on to them but im glad i did!

  • age:2

  • I've heard this ages ago and never actually knew these were Peal Jam, although I knew them. My God, one of the greatest moments of my life was once I found out Eddie is singing it and I absolutely love it / all of their music.

    Iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii I still alive!!!!!!!

  • I want everybody to write their ages after finishing commenting, I'm just curious

  • I'm trying to think what made him sing the words "I'm still alive", maybe I didn't understand it because English isn't my native language?

  • @Itaymyemail its because the song is a true story. It happened to Eddie and the chorus means that even though he had been lied to by his mother, it was ok cause he was still alive, even though he thought that sort of news (That his father wasnt his father) would kill him

  • @stakeelee So what you telling me is that Eddie found out in an early age that the man who supposed to be his father is not his father?

  • Thumbs up if you are going to play this song @21-12-2012

  • Having this played at my funeral... just for the chorus!

  • this is so awesome. i wish i could be in that crowd.

  • fucking awesome song, a fucking great band, alice in chains, soundgarden, screaming trees, so many other's, etc. and of course nickelback...only kidding...what a fucking joke that band is compared to this

  • IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII! IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII­II HAY! IM STILL AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAALLLLLLLLLLLLLL­LLLLLIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIVVVVVVV­VVVVVVVVVVVVEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE­EEE HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHAAAAAAAAAAA­AYYYYYYYYYYYYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYA­YAYAYAYAYAY!

  • i rilly dont want to hear about smash

  • Oh look, I'm on that awesome side of Youtube again

  • pô essa banda é foda man ela destroi....

  • I was going to post a comment to say how much I love Pearl Jam but words wont go far enough. Thank you Eddie Vedder, Mike McCready, Stone Gossard, Dave Abbruzzese, Jeff Ament, Matt Cameron, Jack Irons, Dave Krusen and Matt Chamberlain. I owe you all my life.

  • @EddiVedderMan31770 you should add andy wood in there somewhere

  • @randellanddante Don't get me wrong, I'm a massive fan of Mother Love Bone and Andy Wood was an incredible guy but Pearl Jam is where it's at :)

  • I remember being a teen, and hearing this song for the first time..

    and then hearing it live at Lollapaloza 94 in Saratoga during a wicked thunderstorm at the outdoor ampitheatre.. wow NO WORDS CAN EXPRESS

  • bring us back the 90s !!

  • matt chamberlain on drums... excellent.. i wonder if he had stayed with the band would they be any different?... probably not, but he definately made an improvement to the drums on this song

  • God I have to play this song for a concert... I'm fucked

  • Anthem of a generation!

  • masterpiece

  • Comment removed

  • i'm still alive yeah!!!!

  • Jup Jup

  • Pearl Jam is the shit especially live!

  • linda de viver!! desde meus 11 anos!!! essa foi a primeira que escutei na mtv do BRASIL e pirei, piro até hoje, muitoooo!!! lov u! ♥

  • @FerSpeltri eu tambem escutei eles pela primeira vez na mtv,eu me lembro que achei bem melhor que nirvana

  • very good song.

  • perfect post-2012 song.

  • live version from ten ;)

  • Theme song of being the last player alive on a fps.

  • this song in my funerAl

  • Thumbs up if this song kills you ! and you're not "still alive" !

  • vevo fuckin blows ass

  • @mrworm80 Why so? Is ther something I missed? Just curious...

  • i always listen to this song in any situation that makes me very sad, angry, etc beacuse at the end you know im still alive, so whatever.

  • vevo sucks ass

  • @destiny9blondie Vevo pays artists when you listen to their tracks. So they actually gain something from their fans.

  • @ilikehorses57 really? real artists don't care about the money, especially musicians like Eddie. They want their art to reach as many people as possible to have the greatest impact. If artists knew how vevo makes listening to their music less convenient, I'm willing to bet they would stick with independent broadcasters.

  • @destiny9blondie real artist also have to eat. You don't know how huge bills they have to pay and how much they earn actually. If it's hard to you to listen it on vevo, go, download it ;).

  • @Ratlee94 I usually have all the music I listen to on vevo on cd, but like to see the music videos. I don't think Pearl Jam has any trouble paying for food, or other bills...but I do see your point with some of the other people inevitably involved in the making of music videos.

  • When I was about 9 or 10 years old, I found Eddie's album "Into the wild" in my sister's stuff. So I told myself, "I bet this is shit". Once I listened to the album, I told myself "Ok, I was damn wrong, this rocks". So I search who the heck Eddie Vedder is and find Pearl Jam.

    That day, I personally discovered how it's like to meet God.

  • Comment removed

  • @musicmeans2rock did you meet eddie vedder?

  • @musicmeans2rock oh wait don't mind me just being weird as usual

  • @musicmeans2rock You have an awesome sister! :)

  • guess what my name is stone too. i just need to change my last name to Gossard

  • does anybody no what this song is about,it was and is great

  • @SuperTestfreak Its about a young man discovering that his father is actually his stepfather and the man actually resembles his biological pop

  • @TheNevilleA close, but its actually about a 13 year old boy finding out his father is actually his step father and the 13 year old resembles his biological father so much that the mother comes onto him

  • Gets told the truth about his dad..n thinks..I'm still alive. Then, she (his mom) walks slowly across a young mans room.. she says "I'm ready for you" (and rapes him) he didn't remember anything to this very day..Except "The Look" (from his Mom sexually)..He just stared."Is something wrong she says?" he thinks, F**k, well of course there is!?(condescending, she says (I just raped you and ur stiil alive..) but he feels does he deserve or want to be? and if so, who answers? (God?, mom?, himself?)

  • @kimmietwotime Mate im sorry but this could not be further from the truth. there is nothing about rape in this song, the song is about him not knowing his father and his mom not telling him and then finally telling him...

  • @rowen57 No, In the second verse his mother rapes him because he has a resemblance to his birth father. Listen to the lyric 'I'm ready, for you...'

  • @SuperTestfreak Its about Eddie Vedders discovery that what he thought was his dad was actually just a guy that represented his dad. His real father was actually a family friend and he knew this man.

    Alive was the first song that the band wrote together and was the song that launched them into the stratosphere. You should buy the DVD PJ20 its amazing.

  • I loooove this band, and I want more than anything to go see them live!

  • This is still such a classic.

  • love this song

  • este wn es la rajaaa!

  • i listen to this everyday. enough said

  • Funny i don't remember typing in VEVO.com

  • @tgramz217 go back to ur fuckinnn dirttty gym mat smellin perl jam

  • @tgramz217 Right, What's your noblem? I mean like VEVO always gives out good music with good sound. I don't understand people like you.

  • LOVE THIS SONG

  • the lyrics are so POWERFULL

  • Thumbs up if you want this music back and a revolution! If you want a platform for finding new good grunge bands and posting ones you know of, check out the facebook page "Spread the word of good newer grunge bands"

  • @KristinNirvana I appreciate your view on wanting to bring grunge back.... but should we really? With all the shitty artists that get pumped out and popular, I think it would give it a bad name. Let's leave it in the past and remember it as the flawless music style it was!

  • @Priz420 true

  • @Priz420 Well it would get rid of all the bad artists like it did before. FINALLY good music could be in the mainstream again. I SO want to know what that's like. I'm sure everyone would rather hear stuff like this on the radio instead of the junk that's out today, we have to do it for the children! So they can have a brighter future of what's popular. Back in the 90s, people were laidback and down to earth because of grunge getting popular, now everyone cares about looks and gloss.

  • beautiful song

  • damn, not enough broadband capacity

  • ...so beautiful...

  • the sopa will stop in the same second than pearl jam play alive again
