Fills it up, with his past, gets carried away
Oh half his life, a hand me down, wasted away
Of he fills it up, with the love, of a girl
Oh he left it alone, drilled the pain, with money to buy
How he makes his getaway
How he makes his getaway
Oh he chose a path, heavy the fall, quarter to four
Fills his night, with the thought, of a girl
How he makes his getaway
How he makes his getaway
How he makes his getaway
Cool... did not know that.
So now I'm wishing they had rotated the image on the album cover by 90°, a better visual match to the aural experience.

How much do you spend on various streaming TV channels? RP Must be worth at LEAST that much!

Did you listen via headphones? Because the album has been recorded to be listened to via headphones. Thus it's name: Binaural.
EXACTLY!
This record turned 20 this week. I was 20 when it came out. What a trip.
That means you were eleven when they released Ten, which had eleven tracks, and was released twenty-two years ago, and.... where was I?
It's the Engraved Hourglass Nebula, MyCN 18.
Thank You! It is also an accurate depiction of the polar response pattern of a "binaural recording microphone head". Very interesting! GREAT TUNE!! Thanx RP!

Nice thought but maybe a little egotistical? I give when I can but thank you so much
for paying my way!
Is that the Eye of Sauron? ;-)

This happens all the time. I get an album, listen to it once, hand it back with a frown then trot back to RP. I might as well just stay here and forget everything else...

I listened to the rest of the album, based on this superlative song. It disappointed mightily. As usual, RP finds the gems amid the slag.

I'd probably call someone. There isn't much we can do to help ...

I have to agree...
Eddie Vedder is maybe the part of PJ you really like. With good reason, I might add.

A BIG fat "ditto"
Smart move. this album is full of quirky cool tunes like this one. one of my top 3 PJ albums.

They have been around and maintained a very large fan base because they are a collective of 3 brilliant songwriters and two other viruosos who also contribute to the writing. Each of the 5 has different influences they bring to the table. Each of them gets the time to stretch out and pursue other musical and art projects.
They are not Eddie. They are built on the foundation of Stone and Jeff who were writing separately and together many years before PJ. They have a top ten lead guitarist in Mike and a top five rock drummer in Matt. They are a band in the true sense. Check em out.

Indeed, I'd almost rather ram pointy objects into my ears that hear pearl jam and his mumbling, but I do like this son.
hola, that's 'cuz this is actually stone gossard. i mean it's pjam but it's really gossard. he wrote it,laid it all out,played guitar,even recorded it at his studio i think. plus the binaural recording techniques weren't their ideas either, they used a different producer...plus throw in matt cameron....
Agreed. I don't care for Pearl Jam at all and was dismayed when I saw one of their songs was about to play next. But to my surprise, I really like this song.

Unbelievable 2 days of music.

No. just go to the goods section of pearljam.com and buy it.
Yea, I wasn't thinking when I posted that, the set of CD's I was referring to was the "bootlegs" CD's. However, they are right there too in the same section of the site...thanks!
Ohhh....got to check that out, but I would imagine that is the set CD's recorded all over the world and that one in particular will be hard to find, but I will try. :)

yep
And the version on the "Accoustic" Live CD from the place whose name I never can remember how to spell (Benoyara Hall??) is excellent as well....

Fills it up with his past. Gets carried away.
Oh half his life a hand me down wasted away.
Oh he fills it up with the love of a girl.
Oh he left it alone drilled the pain with money to burn.
How he makes his getaway. How he makes his getaway.
Oh he chose a path. Heavy the fall. Quarter to four.
Fills his night with the thought of a girl.
How he makes his getaway. How he makes his getaway.
How he makes his getaway. Get away.
Agreed, best song on this album..
So glad RP is exposing its listeners to the often overlooked Binaural album.
Many of the songs are of a mood and instrumentation that is quite differnt from the early PJ and some of their latest stuff.
This is one of my faves.
Ditto, ditto, and DITTO!

Ah, the good old days!
8—>9
yeah yeah yeah....Sept 26th reminds me of a friend's birthday - so you are in the same time zone. How does it feel like to be so close to Paradise?
Saturday 30th - 10:45 (Paradise 29th - 18:45)
Like this song a good 8
Completely in agreement. Liking these jamming riffs with just the right touch o vocals. Had to check and see who was playing.
I agree with the comments that appear in this thread about not being much of a PJ fan but finding some intrigue in this cut...

Comes from having 4 very very strong melody/music composers with varied influences - sorry Mike - and a great lyricist.
Definitely an underrated but very fine album.
If all you know is Ten and Vs - try this out.
Or get the Lost Dogs package of rarities.
Don't worry. Based on album sales numbers you weren't alone. But now you can make amends and join those of us who stuck with them. More importantly, don't miss them live next chance you get.
As of 2000 this is where there early album sales were:
*Ten : 11 million copies in the US (last certification 8/06/99)
*Vs. : 6 million copies in the US (last certification 3/16/95)
*Vitalogy : 5 million copies in the US (last certification 10/13/95)
*No Code: 1 million copies (last certification 1/08/97)
*Yield: 1 million copies (last certification 3/13/98) (this is approaching 2 mil)
*Live on Two Legs: less than 1 million
*Binaural: approx 1 million**(gold certification 6/25/00)
*2000 bootleg series: approx 1.25 million combined**
Modest Mouse - Missed the Boat
Tori Amos - A Sorta Fairytale
INCREDIBLE SET!!!!!!! Thanks so much!
