30 songs

Wed May 13, 2020 9:24 pm

So there's an Instagram story worm out that has a list of categories for 30 days. I took that idea and tinkered with it from a Pearl Jam centric point of view. Only rule is no repeats. Of course it's going to be very subjective and there is some overlap in subjects.

Color: Yellow Ledbetter
Music: In My Tree
Guitar work: Given to Fly
Being outside: Unthought Known
Play it loud: Grievance
Makes you want to dance: Dance of the Clairvoyants
Makes you want to drive: MFC
Makes you happy: Smile
Makes you sad: Nothingman
At least 25 years old: Immortality
Pre Vs but not on Ten: State of Love & Trust
'00s song: Severed Hand
Not on their greatest hits collection: In Hiding
Grew on you the most: Parachutes
Favorite they've covered: Timeless Melody
Favorite classic: Betterman
Classic you still enjoy in person: Alive
Classic that's much further down your list of favorites: Black
If you had to karaoke: Last Kiss (not an original but I would never karaoke a true Pearl Jam song)
Traditional opener: Long Road
Want to see performed live but have not: Tremor Christ
Made you a fan: Jeremy
Moves you forward: Rearviewmirror
Deep Cut: Sad
New that sounds like old Pearl Jam: Never Destination
Reminds of another artist: Swallowed Whole (REM)
In love song: Just Breathe
Heart breaking: Parting Ways
Ed & a guitar: Comes then Goes

I think you just did. I love Go but I can't place it in one of those categories.

100% agree with this. Also agree with Betterman on the list.

I think we can all agree that the only list worth reading on this website is when that one guy posted his career record in Small Claims Court.
