This might be the best song on the new album. There are certain songs that show his weaknesses vocally but they should lean into others that are played less in the past that work now in his range.
Eddie doesn’t sound like he used to and it shows on older songs. But these Dark Matter songs he and the band sound great! They fit what he’s Got to Give now and I can’t wait to see them in Portland!
Yeah, they definitely write songs to his current strengths and try to adapt older songs to his range as it is now. Every so often he misses on an older one, but yeah, on these new ones he sounds amazing.
i totally agree. It’s a blessing and curse knowing how raw and amazing the old stuff sounds. New stuff sounds great, though. I think anything after Vitalogy, especially No Code would fit in pretty well with Ed’s current vocal capabilities. Too bad Ed can’t remember the No Code album name or lyrics(😂) because I’d love to see more of those songs played live.
His voice has more gravel to it now yeah, but if you're in the building he still sounds incredible on the old ones. Who wouldn't sound different 33 years later?
@@CZAR151 just saw them in Portland and it was incredible! They all sounded great. Also Pearl Jam radio is playing the 2nd Vancouver show and they sound amazing!
awesome! this sounds like a challenging song for Ed but he pulls it off. in the original key too - if I'm not mistaken those are high B's he's reaching in the bridge? for his age very impressive! also it looks like that main chord progression uses the sliding E-shape à la Not For You - very cool!
Maybe a dumb question, but do you have an iPhone or Apple Music and not turn off the Atmos thing? The first two times I listened to it, I had that feature turned on, and it sounded awful.
@@lukelarsson Not a dumb question, bc I don't know what you're talking about. I do listen through my iphone. I'll look into how to turn it off and see if it makes a difference.
For over $200 a ticket I was kinda disappointed there weren't more of the old songs that we love. They played.... Alive Even flow Better man Jeremy And all the rest was new stuff that is ok but jeez..... $200 a ticket. I wanted to hear Daughter, unthought known, yellow Ledbetter, sirens, black, corduroy, porch..... Twenty more songs that we love from the olden days. Actually feel kinda ripped off.
