I wish they would have closed the Spectrum with this instead of yellow. Still would have given a lot to be at that show.

sir iggius · 11-07-2009, 01:26 AM

Yellow Ledbedder

whygohome? · 11-07-2009, 02:06 AM

alive is the better song because they never got around to finishing Ledbetter's lyrics..but they're both awesome closers.

crashintonickdm · 11-07-2009, 02:07 AM

alive, barely.

DmBand801 · 11-07-2009, 02:16 AM

Alive.

coolhotwaves · 11-07-2009, 02:35 AM

I gave it to YL...by a hair. That song just never gets old for me. Alive does...sometimes.

Alive. Crazy story behind it.

When Vedder was a teenager, his mother revealed to him that the man he thought was his father was actually his stepfather, and that his biological father was dead.

Now that you say that the lyrics make complete sense. I didn't think that was actually true though. Damn!

ExistenceNow · 11-07-2009, 01:49 PM

Neither.

RVM.

rickyh24 · 11-07-2009, 01:51 PM

RVM is the better song out of Alive and Ledbetter?

Yes.

You wouldn't think it'd be possible, but there it is.

Yellow Ledbetter. It's their best song. Alive wouldn't be top 5 for me, although it is great.

After those three nights, I could care less about polls now.

Alive gives me orgasms.

proppenator · 11-07-2009, 05:01 PM

Yellow Ledbetter is probably my favorite Pearl Jam song

crashintonickdm · 11-07-2009, 07:51 PM

GTF has garnered a great deal of love from PJ fans over the years, kinda hard to thus deem it "underrated". It's like saying Megan Fox is underrated.

Of course I love it when polls like these are started just pitting together 2 completely random songs, or shows, or movies etc.. whatever the case may be

whygohome? · 11-08-2009, 12:59 AM

Alive is part of the mamasan trilogy and I'm pretty sure eddie has said the story of alive isn't exactly true, as it's hinted that there's some kind of sexual relationship between the storyteller and the mother..to add to the craziness of the story

whygohome? · 11-08-2009, 01:09 AM
