Doesn't matter if he can harmonize, he a freaki genius with his own voice, look up how ,any cd's he's sold, how many really famous bands want him to come on with them, is your karaoke that good?
Although I do like him in other inceptions, but the tone of his voice does not carry the joy this song needs...sometimes a cover version is hip & cooler....but this is way to laid back...& his voice is .....not suited to this sone..sorry Eddie cause I love ya!
Exactly. Vedder also did a very commendable cover (with Neil Finn on backup vocals no less) of the BEST Split Enz song ever , "Take A Walk." Vedder knows the great stuff when he hears it.
I'm more impressed with Eddie Vedder every time he pulls off something like this -- he's one of the most versatile guys in rock today. Ever hear him sing 'Love, Reign O'er Me'? The man is brilliant!
Why, thanks. Good to know that this ol' f*rt still knows a good musician when I see one. I think Eddie respects the folks who came before him and adds his own unique (overused but in his case accurate) touch to the music, and so, with his own incredible writing, has become his own legend and his own man. It's good to see after all the boring dittoheads out there.
Well actually this is no cover, cause Neil Finn, who is a part of crowded house, is on stage with some other artists like eddie. but it's still a cool & rare performance. :-)
Yeah this was at the St James in Auckland, NZ in 2000. Ed Obrien & Phil Selway (radiohead), Sebastian Stienburg, Johhny Marr (smiths) is the band...& Neil Finn of course
Yeah, this is Eddie Vedder singing alright, but Pearl Jam is not the band behind him. It's a lineup Neil Finn put together for some shows in Auckland several years back.

This is the best Crowded House song ever. Kudos to Eddie for recognizing this good tune, however, CH does it better. Eddie sounds too dark.

Apparently, I'm too old. Crowded House was popular with 'Don't Dream It's Over'.. but this was their best song ever.
Cool how everyone's commenting on Eddie Vedder's (yet another) cover of a great.. or NOT so great song.
This was the best song Crowded House ever wrote. Eddie did a very respectable job covering it. I give him the nod for recognizing an awesome song.

I agree! Little did I know back in 92 when I watched that hot guy jump around the stage, that I was witnessing a true musical genious in the making.

That song will test out the vocal range of the very best singers. Eddie and Neil Finn included. Not many would be brave enough to sing it live!!!

Sheesh, Vedder listened to Crowded House? He always struck me as too nihlist to have gotten to anything like CF
