This has to be one of their most underrated songs. Man this is such a great song.

I like Pilate. But I think it's probably rightly rated. It's good, not great. It certainly isn't terrible. I think most fans have a good grasp on where it ranks.

I have loved this song since I heard it on the Given To Fly single before Yield came out.

Possibly my favorite thing about the second PJ20 show is that the whole single got played that night.

The bridge is everything.

No need to be mean about it

Reading through this thread has me wanting to listen to In My Tree.

Poll?

Albums are about "feel" for me. And everything about the bridge summarizes the feel of Yield every time I listen to it .

I love this song so much.

Damn right I am quoting myself quoting myself:

You’re damn right I’m quoting myself:

Yield - in my circle anyway - signaled the end of the bandwagon Pearl Jam fan. No Code was “weird” compared to the first three records which the whole world loved. I feel like people gave No Code a pass, and waited to see if the next record would be another Ten. It wasn’t.

When Yield came out, you either knew you were locked in as a Pearl Jam fan for life, or you moved on to the next thing...

I’ve posted about this before, but the song Pilate embodied this for me. I love this record, of course. Half my friends suffered through me playing a song like Pilate and decided PJ was old news. On to the next thing. See ya, suckas!
