  • Something about Eddie, they way he approaches the songs he covers, they always turn out better than the original. And that's not saying the originals aren't great too, but from this, to Love Reign O'er Me, to You've Got to Hide Your Love Away, and the list goes on, Eddie and Pearl Jam always seem to knock it out of the park.

  • This song is amazing and I love love love his voice!

see all

  • absolutly Eddie

  • go look up the original, by Indio (Gordon Peterson). He's a canadian guy and he wrote this in 1989. his version's really good.

  • FUCK I LOVE IT!!!!

  • @PringDaddyPring Agreed on the "Mother" cover. Eddie's getting older, his pipes definitely aren't as powerful as before. That's why I'm so glad there's youtube to watch all their stuff from years gone past. =)

  • @meeuzik I don't know about "always" turning out better than the originals... this one, yes, I agree... But... their cover of "Mother" on Jimmy Fallon was ghastly...

  • @bigrockies

    Revision one: A&M music granted the rights to Universal Music. You were almost right. Someone should have called up Gordon Peterson just for good ettiquete before he heard it on the radio. He must of sold the song outright back in the day with no roaylties or licence. The music biz is savage like that. Make sure to get good management all of you up and comers.

  • Indio was guy named Gordon Petersen. The original version is 1000% better. From wikipedia "Peterson re-emerged into the public when he filed a lawsuit in December 2009 against Pearl Jam's Eddie Vedder, alleging infringement resulting from usage and alteration of "Hard Sun" without Peterson's permission, although Universal Music, Peterson's former label, granted permission. Vedder recorded the song for the Sean Penn-directed movie Into the Wild."

  • this isn't "better" than the original. It's simply true to form and honest in his way. I usually prefer the original, the version sung by the writer, and I do here. But Eddie's version is just fine.

  • The original is better.. But this one still is good.
