Okay, if the quality is significantly better that's another mark in its favor. I've had these on boots for a long time and neither was a particular favorite, so I think that single got one listen out of me.
Did anyone here actually expect something besides the breezy and humid mist of a particularly wet fart, when it came time to receive the Pearl Jam Ten Club holiday single for the year of our lord 2013?

I guess the only real disappointment is it was a missed opportunity to release a Lightning Bolt cast off or two. But honestly, those songs probably suck too.
Other than that this is a perfectly cromulent holiday single.
99 problems is ok, Jeff sounds like he's playing WMA.
I watched the video of Jeanne Triplehorn on Kimmel, and it explains why they did it. Anyway, I would have liked to fuck Jeanne when she played Tom Cruise's wife in The Firm. Not so much anymore.
The No Jeremy/Falling Down single was nice. Good quality of a pretty fantastic performance at Red Rocks. Enough said.

06: LROM/Rockin in the Free World
I really like this one. The Ujam thing was a good choice. I never listen to it, but it was, at least in theory, a cool collaboration. And LROM is my favorite thing to appear on any Xmas single.
I feel like this is easily the worst Christmas single. A song they had recorded for a movie and a cover that is legitimately one of the most embarrassing moments in the band's career.
This year's single looks pretty good, though I wish they'd go back to recording new stuff.
