@@mikecalkins6467 Eddie was 45 in this video, Roger was 77/78 at the time of that performance. That’s not a fair comparison at all. Roger sung it best originally and in his middle age. Eddie would probably sing it better now than Roger, but Roger has 20 years on him…
@@allbottledup9513 yeah i knew it wasn't a fair comparison, but that guy said Roger DOES it better, like today he does it better than Ed... no he absolutely does not. (to me)
He's not even stressing the "love reign on me" part. It's so amazing to see that! It just comes so naturally to him, it's beautiful! ^_^ Such a great cover!
Only love can make it rain The way the beach is kissed by the sea Only love can make it rain Like the sweat of lovers Laying in the fields Love, reign o'er me Love, reign on me, rain o'er me Rain on me Only love can bring the rain That makes you yearn to the sky Only love can bring the rain That falls like tears from on high Love, reign o'er me, rain on me Love, reign o'er me, rain on me Rain on me On the dry and dusty road The nights we spend apart alone I need to get back home to cool cool rain I can't sleep and I lay and I think The night is hot and black as ink Wooh God, I need a drink of cool cool rain Love, reign o'er me Reign o'er me, o'er me Love, reign o'er me Rain on me Love
Oh my gosh, I can't believe I found this... I was about to leave because I needed to catch a train when I heard this start and because it was close to the end of the night, I was able to sneak to the side of the stage. Amazing performance.
who would have thought that Eddie Vedder and Pearl Jam would be doing this song in 2010. to go from 1989 to this song. OMG, it is so awesome. Pearl Jam rocks!!!! Eddie going from pumping gas to being the star that he is. I am getting goosebumps.
‘Who would have thought’? They’ve done covers of The Who songs since the formation of Pearl Jam in 1990. It’s Eddie Vedder’s favorite band that he grew up listening to. They released this song in 2007 on the soundtrack for the movie Reign Over Me.
damn - that is one brave performance - there are but a small handful of singers of ANY era who are brave enough to even attempt to sing this and fewer still who can actually pull it off - hard to follow in the vocal footsteps of someone like Daltry on such a demanding song - a legend song - I was truly nervous for him risking so much but ... ... ... he nailed it
It wasn’t a one off thing. They’ve performed that song for years (their version is on the soundtrack for the movie Reign Over Me from 2007) and they’ve done covers of The Who since the beginning. Eddie Vedder’s favorite band, that he grew up listening to and singing along to, so he’s had some practice.
Why compare. He does the song in his version and it kicks ass. What I especially like is that doing these types of songs keeps their spirit alive and god only knows we need to keep it going. Well done Eddie, keep spreading the love.
As a longtime PJ fan (with Vedder being the reason I started singing in the first place), his performance of this song just blows me away. I don't think his voice has hit me as hard since I first heard "Ten" in the early 90's, and that was a life changing experience for me as a teenager so to still have that sort of impact is just incredible.
No puede mas ....es increible este tema,como lo canta,como lo vive,como lo siente....como grita y el intacto ahi parado....lpmqlp..q piel de gallinaaaaa!!!!!!!!esta banda es lo mejor q hay !!!!!
A most powerful rendition and a fitting tribute to Roger Daltry. If you have seen the movie, you will know how fitting this song was for the title track.
I know for The Who for a long time, but I never listened them, until I did it few days ago, and first song I was listening is this, and first thing what I think is that I think about how it would be that Eddie sing this song. And then, here I am, and.. I'm speechless... One and only Eddie Vedder!
Saw them do this at MSG 1978 and played this for" Keith" first tour after he died Roger sang this running in place the whole song crazy and singing this !!! Boston your my Home dirtywater baby
Coming from Brighton england the quadraphenia capital this had to be more than good and I wasn't let down cooking brilliant well done Mr v and the boys
This is one of the best things I've heard in a long time! It's the perfect example for why Eddie has no prime. I mean for sure, 1991-1994 he had the most Volume in his voice, but I mean this has something special about it, too!?😀😍
I was at this concert when I was 13, this was one of a handful of songs they played that i knew. it was absolutely amazing! I'm seeing PJ again at Fenway Park in august and watching the videos from this concert has me psyched to see them again!!
