    Guess I’d never really listened properly to those lyrics. Makes sense it’s about homelessness… To be fair, it’s pretty bloody hard to understand what EV’s singing at the best of times.

    I often wonder what changed about Pearl Jam’s songwriting - they never managed to recapture that same intensity that Ten had. Incredible debut, not a bad song on that album. Then Vs, a couple, maybe three dud songs. Vitalogy, maybe 50/50. Stopped listening pretty much after that. Certainly never bought another of their albums.

    Like Vedder’s solo stuff tho.
