@@Xmunchiexx i was worried that this might be the beginning of the (slight) downgrade in live performances having not played for 3 years, and the fact that they’re not getting any younger. given the show the other night at Sea Hear Now, it’s safe to say i was a fool for every worrying about the quality of a live PJ show
And he was very sick to boot. So I'm sure he was surprised that he hit those notes and that's probably why he was smiling. I mean, what a boss Eddie Vedder was and frankly he still is.
I remember being in middle school and playing in band and kicking it with my bandmates who were predominantly white skater kids. They opened the door for me with the grunge movement and I am appreciative for it. Opened my eyes to so many other forms of music as a black kid other than rap and hip hop that I was use to listening to. Music is universal. Still listen to these classics to this day and it just take me back to when grunge was just popping! LOVE IT!
The sound of his voice on this song helps me through tough times. When I'm sad, bored, angry or just need to be calmed down to go to sleep..this is my tonic.
I grew up listening to Pearl Jam cause my parents are fanatics and every one of the countless shows they go to they just stand in the crowd singing and crying 🥺
Yeah, I get kind of sad when I watch these old shows and remember how young they--and we--were and how all this was still new and exciting for them--and us.
Mixed voice actually, no hooty-flooty falsetto. It's mainly head voice but mixed with a gulp of chest voice. That's why it sounds "round" and "full" 😊 Cheers from a singer
Hold on to the thread The currents will shift Guide me towards you Know something's left And we're all allowed to dream Of the next time we touch.......... You don't have to stray The oceans away Waves roll in my thoughts Hold tight the ring... The sea will rise... Please stand by the shore... I will be... I will be... There once more.........
The first verse of this song makes me think of the one that got away. It's the exact words I'd like to say to her. Maybe I could sing that to her one day, as long as we're able to get back in touch again.
No they sure won't. Not as long as we're still alive and kicking and passing it on to our kids and grandkids anyhow. My son, who was born just a year before they performed this, listens to some god awful new age heavy metal which thoroughly sucks, but I have faith he'll come back to his roots in grunge someday lol.
Sweet Jesus. There are no words for this performance...... I saw these guys in 1993 in London..... I was 17 it was utterly magical. I met Dave in the crowd and he was a delight. It's a song that leaves any normal emotional human breathless......
With this performance, I particularly like the smile that appears on Eddie's face at 0:56 when he nails the falsetto. It's like he's thinking "oh, yeah, I nailed the note!" Just an impeccable performance of a great song!
I go into a trance when I’m listening to them… Just like in the 90s’ in the first time I heard them… was just a young teen. Now I’m 43 and still feel the same. True Legends 🖤
Watching him sing this and Black unplugged makes me fall in love with him all over again! 💕 Eddie Vedder and Chris Cornell hands down the best male voices to come out of the 90's! 💯
so i know everyone's talking about eddie and rightfully so, but can we please take a second to appreciate how cool that bass sounds? like, holy shit, my ears are having an orgasm.
Finally the original version of this video posted by the band! This is one of their best songs and the way it was performed on this TV show it's just perfect...
✨🌿🕊️☀️🤗🌅🌌🌿✨ Been listening to Ocean..besides the Ocean since i was 13years old in 1991 like i did just Today, where i was born East Coast NewZealand, if one could swim with Ocean Dragons, capture Love in a Jar, with the Sound of A Sweeping bird in flight..this is it. Thankyou Guys, Thank you So Much✨💖👑⚔️✨
Its crazy how good this performance is. The band is so in sync and Eddie's emotion is there both visually and audibly. PJ unplugged is an experience everyone should go through.
I remember in 94 as a little kid jamming with my dad's friends , walks in Eddie . Best night of my life. I became a studio musician at 16 and play woodwinds mostly. Thanks Eddie 🗽
This song causes the hairs on the back of my neck to stand on end... Bless up the mighty Pearl Jam & may their music & legacy continuely live on for decades to come... 😁
Eddie is perfect... besides having the most beautiful voice and the incredible sensitivity of a poet, he is also the most beautiful man in the world. I love it too much
![Goo Goo Dolls - Iris (Live in Buffalo, NY, 7/4/2004) [Official Video]](/img/n.gif)
His transition from his baritone voice to his falsetto is absolutely flawless in every way
Ruby Lea exactly probably as perfect as it gets
@allright715 i’d argue (and i’m sure many others agree) that pearl jam TODAY still sound better live than the studio versions
@@joshtonkin7684 I think you're right. They do phenomenal live performances, which are often the hardest thing for many musicians.
@@Xmunchiexx i was worried that this might be the beginning of the (slight) downgrade in live performances having not played for 3 years, and the fact that they’re not getting any younger.
given the show the other night at Sea Hear Now, it’s safe to say i was a fool for every worrying about the quality of a live PJ show
@@joshtonkin7684 they tune down more to lower the ceiling for his range. Still truly on of the best voices in music. Touches that magic spot.
Eddie’s voice is basically a musical instrument in its own right!
Friend: so what instrument do you play?
Eddie: oh, just the Eddie Vedder
@@tactical_ninjas_8748 That actually sounds gay LOL
*was
I fell in love with this at a young age,he was my idol back in my teens.
agree there, his voice is amazing, trasmits a lot of emotions
Best MTV Unplugged ever
Amazing.i could go on forever about Pearl jam. Huge fan from the beginning. Beautiful 😂🎉
Absolutely breathtaking
Pearl jam, alice in chains and nirvana unplugged are legendary
+Conner Armstrong ehhh, who?
+Conner Armstrong must not be very good , never heard of them
+cinnamontoast3344 How on earth have you not heard of aerosmith
+Jess TheMetalHead I'm making a joke, I hate Aerosmith, I think they're basic and overrated
+Jess TheMetalHead I like Steven Tyler but not that band #boring
When Eddie hit that note, he smiled. He’s the end-boss of vocals.
It’s a vocal technique but your point still stands :)
And he was very sick to boot. So I'm sure he was surprised that he hit those notes and that's probably why he was smiling. I mean, what a boss Eddie Vedder was and frankly he still is.
Eddie vedder is a work of art
you can't not be more right
for sure
Preach! \m/
Basil Leslie a precious angel and a blessing to the human race
School,,,
Life would not be as beautiful without this man's songs
I absolutely love this song. His voice is pure perfection
That little smile at 0:54... "Oh, I'm really good at this shit" lol
I'm in love
aren't we all
😍
Gabriela lol so clad I went back a saw that , literally the truest and funniest comments I've seen in ages
I Love Pearl Jam.
He wasn't actually smiling but it's a singing methow that (and yes he is good, he's so fine too).
Eddie "Better" has the most attractive natural voice in mankind's history.
I remember being in middle school and playing in band and kicking it with my bandmates who were predominantly white skater kids. They opened the door for me with the grunge movement and I am appreciative for it. Opened my eyes to so many other forms of music as a black kid other than rap and hip hop that I was use to listening to. Music is universal. Still listen to these classics to this day and it just take me back to when grunge was just popping! LOVE IT!
music has no colour my friend , it`s a universal rainbow
90's just hit different... music was damn good.
Dennis Rodmans Favorite Band and mine too. So your not the only Black person that Loves PJ.
😊
Must've been an awesome experience 💯
Perfection. I mean that voice, that passion, those eyes, those lips, those cheekbones, that hair. OMG. Sorry, it had to be said.
also, long eyelashes.
You said it perfectly, Yolanda! And let’s not forget that smile. Just everything about Eddie Vedder is perfection. ❤❤❤❤
Right! I’ve loved him since 1991 when 10 came out.
Those eyes and lips omg ❤
@midnight.blue42 OMG IKR. HES STUNNING.
The sound of his voice on this song helps me through tough times. When I'm sad, bored, angry or just need to be calmed down to go to sleep..this is my tonic.
It’s pretty perfect
It will be okay ❤️
I feel the same with release me, it's soothing
@@seanwilkie9358 agreed. Release is completely underrated. One of my favorite songs.
I know exactly what you mean: therapy for the soul
Im not an emotional person but I get tears when I sing along to this performance. Maybe it's because the last 30 years has gone so fast.
I grew up listening to Pearl Jam cause my parents are fanatics and every one of the countless shows they go to they just stand in the crowd singing and crying 🥺
@@flowassss345 sounds awesome...
They sure have, haven't they?
Indeed they have
Yeah, I get kind of sad when I watch these old shows and remember how young they--and we--were and how all this was still new and exciting for them--and us.
This song and Eddie's voice is a complete work of art. From falsetto to baritone. It is beautiful.❤😊
Mixed voice actually, no hooty-flooty falsetto. It's mainly head voice but mixed with a gulp of chest voice. That's why it sounds "round" and "full" 😊 Cheers from a singer
Hold on to the thread
The currents will shift
Guide me towards you
Know something's left
And we're all allowed to dream
Of the next time we touch..........
You don't have to stray
The oceans away
Waves roll in my thoughts
Hold tight the ring...
The sea will rise...
Please stand by the shore...
I will be...
I will be...
There once more.........
Glide me towards you*
and Thanks :)
The first verse of this song makes me think of the one that got away. It's the exact words I'd like to say to her. Maybe I could sing that to her one day, as long as we're able to get back in touch again.
❤
Nirvana, Pearl Jam, AIC, STP & Sound Garden absolutely genius! No matter how much time passes they will never be forgotten !
The best band to ever exist hands down!
No they sure won't. Not as long as we're still alive and kicking and passing it on to our kids and grandkids anyhow. My son, who was born just a year before they performed this, listens to some god awful new age heavy metal which thoroughly sucks, but I have faith he'll come back to his roots in grunge someday lol.
Such a beautiful song, Eddie is such a powerful singer.
his voice n range are amazing
The power of the youthful voice.
Truly a beautiful face and such a strong voice ugh so much perfection going on here
I have anxiety and insomnia. This is one of the few things that can calm me down. One of my favorite voices of all time!
best baritone voice ever
The best... but when he slides into that falsetto... damn! Doesn't get much better than this!
I don't disagree. Because he's such a phenomenal vocalist. But I'd add David Bowie, Chris Cornell and Roy Orbison to the List.
Him and Chris Cornell
@@halloweenjack95 isn't Chris a tenor?
@@halloweenjack95 Chris and Roy are tenors
With his voice eddie brings light, joy and hope into the world
I love the unplugged versions. This song is amazing.
Feeling is mutual.Kinda helps one see Eddie's Vocals in its purest form and absolute best! :)
Got an ig?
They don’t make em like this anymore, Ed is truly amazing
True Story. Eddie was a legend
@@leahrhude3013 is alive and a legend
the falsetto at 0:47 gives me chills every single time.
It’s the vibrato that speaks to your soul.
This particular performance is insane
E
One talented and beautiful man...
Pretty good band, too!
How cute he was right there
Is sad to say that the 90' never will back
Is the prime of all music styles
Rap, rock, pop, reggae...
This show and especially black is in my opinion the best live performance ever.
This has to be the greatest "Unplugged" performance ever. I can't see anything topping this
When you grow up with this Music,you
just appreciate you were here to witness it 👏
You can almost feel the breeze and smell the salt air..
I farted right before I read this
Thank you for your wonderful input, Joshua.
@@CarrickWebb 😂😂
I always felt that while listening to Oceans. Sometimes you can even fell the sea currents.
Notixes free dive, the dog i have cant swin..... I swim doplhin,,,
So,,,, i fight My way here, strangers to land
One of the most beautiful songs I’ve ever heard.
ua-cam.com/video/JpabBMygAQY/v-deo.html.
Voice of an angel right there.
Ugh he’s so beautiful!
Eddie's vocals are to absolutely die for! 🤘🤟
What a gem. Thank you Eddie and Pearl Jam for changing my life in a small but beautiful way.
Beautiful Eddie, every inch of his soul is sung through his voice. I will never tire of Pearl Jam.
me too. I was ten years old when I got their first album. 32 now n still love em just as much.
Sweet Jesus. There are no words for this performance...... I saw these guys in 1993 in London..... I was 17 it was utterly magical. I met Dave in the crowd and he was a delight. It's a song that leaves any normal emotional human breathless......
So dam true!!
With this performance, I particularly like the smile that appears on Eddie's face at 0:56 when he nails the falsetto. It's like he's thinking "oh, yeah, I nailed the note!"
Just an impeccable performance of a great song!
this little smile is so cute
This song and Eddie Vedder's voice are like angel. Love it.
how can someone be so beautiful, so perfect
“ Hold tight , the ring “ - his delivery on that line is so sick , it’s ridiculous. There’s just something about it I can’t put into words.
exactly!
Agreed.
His voice gives me chills. ❤ always has
Damn... This song speaks to me, and would still speak even without words.
He’s a literal fucking work of art , singing into my soul
Oceans is my best favourite song of PJ. So many emotions, so underrated song...
What a genuine voice, inner and actual.
I go into a trance when I’m listening to them… Just like in the 90s’ in the first time I heard them… was just a young teen. Now I’m 43 and still feel the same. True Legends 🖤
Best Unplugged of history the MTV....
Agreed!
I love pearl jam but i think nirvana unplugged was the best then this one
Sebastian Leon Ever seen the Alice in Chains one?
yes but the singer dosn't move's!
Alice in chains was the better unplugged
what a magnificent and sentimental song, makes you want to cry and smile
THE perfect song....
Pearl Jam live is so far beyond auto tuned bands of today. People are missing the real talent of bands and singers
Eddie Vedder has such a unique and powerful voice that he performed perfectly anything...!!!!!!!!!
Indeed….He’s quite the epitome of UNIQUENESS!!!!! 😱😱😍👍🙏🌞❗️
When he sing and close his eyes... omg 😍😍😍
This song has the most fluid drumming out of any performance I've ever seen period.
I've been lost here for years ❤️
Watching him sing this and Black unplugged makes me fall in love with him all over again! 💕 Eddie Vedder and Chris Cornell hands down the best male voices to come out of the 90's! 💯
Very true
and Layne.
What about Layne Staley?! Come on girl, Layne imo had the best voice.
all fantastic in my opinion , but Layne is my personal fave
Grunge Vocal list goes layne, kurt, ed then chris, chris was overrated
One often overlooked contribution to the greatness of this song is the fabulous bass line on the fretless acoustic bass guitar.
I love this bass line too but wait is this bass really acoustic? Doesn't look so
It's a great part, but the bass guitar is electric here and it was electric on the original recording as well.
He’s oh so dreamy, and that voice brings chills to my spine. Pearl Jam, love your music.
The whole unplugged set shows what an underrated and legendary singer Eddie truely is
Still giving me goosebumps after all these years
THAT BASS IS FU*KING AWESOME !!!!
so i know everyone's talking about eddie and rightfully so, but can we please take a second to appreciate how cool that bass sounds? like, holy shit, my ears are having an orgasm.
❤️
💯
Jeff is a killer bassist!!! Agreed!
And his hat is also great
@@olivermahoney3429 I love all his hats!!
He hits the notes in the right spots. What an absolute legend of a voice
Eddie Vedder simplesmente perfeito! Que voz!!!
Vdd
Only Eddie Vedder can write a love song to his surfboard and make it so deliciously full of soul and emotion. 😍
"I will be there once more" .. man that part always gets me, just the emotion in the vocals at that point. Thank you PJ.
1:28 the way he flicks his eyelashes, so cute 👀❤💕
To me,it's one of the most beautiful songs ever written ❤❤❤
Sempre quando vou a praia me lembro dessa canção.
What a voice. What a band --- authentic --- beautiful. And just as good live as in studio!
I remember hearing this song with my high school surf buddies as we rode back to the valley while watching the hills roll by
Eddie vedder Will go down as one of the most original and genuine voices what a talent!
Literally gives me the chills every time I watch this.
Finally the original version of this video posted by the band! This is one of their best songs and the way it was performed on this TV show it's just perfect...
Nah, I think the "Oh Beth" parts at the end are still edited.
✨🌿🕊️☀️🤗🌅🌌🌿✨

His smiles, so he doesn't go flat, just kill me lol.
He is the story teller
Their Unplugged show is probably the best live performance ever.
The? Or their? Certainly not the.
@LizSchulz ..... I concur
@@cletus1805muppet
Its crazy how good this performance is. The band is so in sync and Eddie's emotion is there both visually and audibly. PJ unplugged is an experience everyone should go through.
Everything about this performance is perfect!
The best Unplugged in the world in history, ❤️ PJ! The best voice and the best band. I will never get tired of listening to them.
I remember in 94 as a little kid jamming with my dad's friends , walks in Eddie . Best night of my life. I became a studio musician at 16 and play woodwinds mostly. Thanks Eddie 🗽
Imagine discovering this performance in 2022 and the years I spent without knowing these performances...
Better late than never honey! ❤👍🙏🌞❗️
Actually, I’m right there w/ya!! 😱❤️🥰🙏🌞🙏🙏
No way just born
Try 2023.....I'm late to the Jam! 😢
Bro you're being blessed, b thankful
No kidding... I'm 40. I never thought I liked Pearl Jam. I think I was wrong!
Voz magnifica até os dias de hoje! 💟
Goosebumps every time.
the bass is EVERYTHING on this song. it's sensory.
The drummer 🥁 killin’ it
I have nothing but love and respect for each member of this band I love each and every one of them 😍
This song causes the hairs on the back of my neck to stand on end...
Bless up the mighty Pearl Jam & may their music & legacy continuely live on for decades to come... 😁
Eddie is perfect... besides having the most beautiful voice and the incredible sensitivity of a poet, he is also the most beautiful man in the world. I love it too much
I listened to this song 12, 202 times, including tonight today.... since the first day was released in August 27, 1991..
It was in the broadcast? I do not remember but is one of my favorites
In heaven this show plays everyday...
When you thing how sophisticated this is on every part - and they were young guys . It’s a remarkable show
This is the best unplugged of the world
Brasil? Alguém?
Pearl Jam é simplesmente maravilhoso, nunca me canso!❤️
