Reconnaissance on the corner
In the old world not so far
First we took an airplane
Then a boat to Zanzibar

Queen cranking on the blaster
And Mercury did rise
Come along where we all belonged
You were yours and I was mine

Had to quick escape
Had to quick escape

Crossed the border to Morocco
Kashmir then Marrakesh
The lengths we had to go to then
To find a place Trump hadn’t fucked up yet

Living life on the back porch
Lifting rocks to make a wage
Every sunset paid attention to
Not a starry night went to waste

Had to quick escape
Had to quick escape

And here we are, the red planet
Craters across the skyline
A sleep sack in a bivouac
And a Kerouac sense of time

And we think about the old days
Of green grass, sky and red wine
Shouldn’t known so fragile
And avoided this one-way flight

one of their bigger sounding songs in quite a while

I don't remember the last time I heard Pearl Jam slowly groove like that; "No Way"?

Dig it! Some Levee Breaks vibes. So into it!

I dare say I'm looking forward to this album.

Could really hear Cornell singing over that. Loved it. Huge sound

This sounds great!!

Reminds me of Infallible (ok, I really like this song), but this has potential to be much better based on the snippet. I can see Ed singing on this and anything will sound cool.

So much fucking groove there. Fuckin a. That space!

this is what Infallible should have sounded like

My hope is that ed stays in the groove and lets the song breathe with a lower register.

It’s such a great sound I find myself in disbelief that 2020 PJ is capable of it.

Yeah ok i'm really digging this one! I dare say taking into consideration the original teaser clips for the first two singles and Who Ever Said that this one might be my favorite of them all.

I think maybe since avocado they havent really tried to do something like this. Of The Earth maybe?

I kind of hope that Ed doesn't over-dramatise the Trump line, but he probably will

Super Led Zep vibes. I love the bass groove. I’m most excited about this one.

Cool clip for sure. Can’t remember based on all the reviews, but is this the tune Mike solos to close it out?
