Just a reminder to some of the crazy PJ fans (I love both bands, so I'm not dissing the band by any means), Aaron might've messed up lyrics a little but there's freakin' karaoke versions of this song that messed up the lyrics. Aaron's said before that all his covers come out of respect. He never wants to outdo anybody or be credited more for something that's by someone he respects (Eddie Vedder, for example). Some of you say it's a bad cover, but as long as it's not PJ you can't give it credit

@pearljm67 Okay, so he messed a few lyrics. I love Pearl Jam, but there's plenty of times I can't tell what he's saying. Even some of the licensed karaoke versions of this song had different lyrics. I know this because I sing this every time I show up at a karaoke bar somewhere. Aaron's said himself that he has a bad memory (mostly from when he used to be a heavy drinker), so he can slip sometimes just like anybody. I've heard singers mess up their own lyrics. No big deal. We know the song

Better than Pearl Jam! Wow

@24TV1 If he wanted to honor Eddie Vedder than he should have looked up the lyrics, cause he didn't get them right!

@KillerDiaguR Hey bro, I didn't say mine was better, just that I put more emotion into it...I mean I was pretty much in tears as I put myself into the song fully. Don't get me wrong, it is a great cover!!!
-
@sircumfrins no way bro i listened to yours and i gotta say this one's better. how can you say this has no feeling? level for the sake of it. this cover clearly owns
-
@smooth1133 That's fair enough. I respect that. I stick to what I said. Sung well but doesn't invest himself fully into it...and he doesn't need to. Oh ya, I completely agree that he is one of the most emotional singers. I am a big fan of Aaron and Staind. Later.

@sircumfrins your version was plain as it comes

@sircumfrins dude really, r u serious, u must be high, hes one of the most emotional singers EVER.....

I think he SINGS the song beautifully but I don't FEEL anything when I listen to it. I think he is void of emotion and passion. This video was the single reason why I decided to do my own cover and put it up. I put my soul into it...people can check my version out if they feel like it.
One of the best covers I've ever heard. Aaron was dead on. It's good to see how much he honors guys like Eddie Vedder, as well
