When I read so many interpretations of PJ songs like this, it makes me feel all fuzzy... I think it is credit to how fabulous Eddie is at writing lyrics. I really enjoy all the different interpretations guys and I think you should too :) it's not about what Eddie was exactly thinking, none of us will ever know him personally to know what's in his head. It's all part of the wonder, and the song creates different patterns and images for everyone :) |

I definitely got that feeling too straight off the bat with this song! It's really impressive to me that they could achieve that. Pearl Jam create a whole movie in your head, even if it's something you're not familiar with, I'm really taken aback by how they create that for me. Sign of a phenomenal band I guess! |

I've rarely heard racism tackled in a song by someone who's white. This song is really unique, it's quite a feat lyrically I think. It's quite clearly poetic and lyrical but it feels conversational too... personal. Close. I absolutely adore the use of "brother". I think that really makes the song what it is, that one word stands for a lot. Pearl Jam are just one great piece of work after another. |

Please excuse me if I sound like a very emotional wreck... I feel like this song goes through me and into me and runs through my veins and wears off like a drug. It's like a pinch, and a talk with my inner self to listen to this... a voice telling me my best interests, pointing me towards happiness. Eddie is blessed, he's a poet. The most beautiful words fall from his mind to a page and out of his mouth. It feels like listening to something inside yourself. What a wonderful piece of work lyrically, and musically. The musicianship on this track is perfectly in unison with Ed's vocals and the lyrics. It creates beautiful things in your mind, and soothes you and lulls you in the verses... only to hammer home the chorus in the strongest must stripped back way. So beautiful. Well done Ed. |
