The riff gets me every time. I know it’s simple, but it sounds so great. Jeff is on fire, and I love Ed’s performance too. It’s a really great song. 48 Stars.

I think everyone is great on this. I've heard some people not liking Ed's enunciation, but I like it here. Jeff is an all-time great rock bassist, and he's his usual amazing self.

pretty comfortable with my "1" rating

Way better than Never Destination and other songs from Gigaton. It lacks a 'harder' production and more heavy drums from Matt, but is a good song overall.
Fuuuuuuuck this song is good. Definitely ranks above some Gigaton songs, which is crazy, cause I pretty much love all of 'em. Come on Pearl Jam, give me more, please.
It's a non-essential b-side. It is where it belongs!
Thought the same the first couple of times I heard it but then liked it better and better as time went along. I am not sure it belongs on Gigaton but I would have loved this to be a part of another album.

snatch texted me his predictive interpretation of this song a couple days before it’s release, and I legitimately remember that much more clearly than the actual song. Definitely listened to it more times.

I like it better than about 75% of Gigaton, which is more a compliment to this song than it is meant to be a jab at Gigaton. I really just enjoy Matt Cameron's songwriting for Pearl Jam; I especially think he and Eddie have a really complementary musical relationship, with Eddie being able to breathe life into Matt's songs in a way that belies his own natural abilities, while the extremely deliberate structures of Matt's songs force an element of focus in Eddie's performances and keep some of his more dramatic tendencies as a singer at bay. Just right up my alley all around; my tweaked version of Gigaton would probably include it (I like Gigaton and as a whole it holds up for me, but there are definitely a few tracks I'd be glad to see go).
