ive always felt like this song just treads water, and while a song doesn't have to go anywhere to be great, I don't feel like the space that this lingers in is all that compelling

I'm always for more stip.* :wave:

*Even though he's clearly wrong about the wonderful song "Of the Girl" from Pearl Jam's Binaural.

I've been watching that gif for the last 5 minutes or so and I'm still smiling.

Of the Girl is just a great tune. I think the Beyonara version is my fave. I think.

I prefer it live, actually. That's unusual for me.

Great song. Maybe just a notch below my absolute favorites on Binaural, but it's right there at the top of the 4 star list.

If you watch it with "Of the Girl" playing in the background it's even better.

Anyways, I really like most of this song, but am I the only one who thinks the "Now he makes his getaway" part kind of brings the song's momentum to a halt? I hate that part, I like the rest a ton.

Never quite understood this song title. Makes no sense. Love the song though. Not sure why I've been thinking about this. I always thought "getaway" would be a better title for this song, though that's since been taken..



If you think about the meaning of this song the title will make sense all of a sudden.
