good song, not great. would've been sweeter had they bothered to mention the band's relationship w/ rodman in the doc. vedder even sang the national anthem before game 3 of the '98 finals
If not for our house fire this year and my battle with depression and suicide, I would have done everything to get a side job to see my band that has helped saved my life in MN
We need to appreciate PJ in the present tense....one day Wikipedia will say Pearl Jam "was" an American rock band formed in Seattle, Washington in 1990
Saw Pearl Jam in 90'/91'. Since then I've been to 70 or 80 concerts. I've seen dozens of bands from Rock,Punk even Blues. But, that PJ Show was the most electric and energized concert I ever saw. Eddie actually climbed the scaffolding, stood on the speakers about 30ft up and stage dived. He landed right on me and a friend. First thing he did was to ask us "You alright?". He then surfed back to the stage,grabbed the mic and continued singing. That was the best bruise/concert Injury I ever had. EPIC!
That was one of those "Pearl Jam Moments" that the fans who were in the room as well as us who weren't will never forget/cherish to our death bed. Thank god for Pearl Jam
This song never fails to bring a lump to my throat. PJ are my favorite band ever but I don't think I appreciated this masterpiece till years later....and every PJ album is full of these gems
You can spend your time alone redigesting past regrets, Or you can come to terms and realize... You're the only one who cannot forgive yourself. -Just. Fucking. Perfect.-
The measure of the greatest music is its ability to MOVE you at the deepest spiritual place within your being. Pearl Jam is very rare in that there are many song in their catalog that can do that. But this one in particular can stop me in my tracks and bring chills and tears at the meer sound of the opening notes. I love this particular version for the audience singing the chorus. I have no words for how that verse makes me feel.
You can’t do better than Pearl Jam in 2006. They were at the absolute PEAK of their powers then. Not that they aren’t still great today, but this version of them is really tough to beat
Many people say that the album "Ten" and specifically the song "Alive" saved their lives, in my case "Present Tense" and this wonder called "No Code" did exactly the same on me, thanks Eddie, Jeff, Mike, Stone and Jack for such beautiful artpiece.
What a fantastic song to be singing along with Ed and the band. It was the most intimate and wonderful experience I've ever had that day at the Letterman Aftershow! A day I'll not soon forget. Thanks for the video.
Man what a feeling it musta been to be there!! 🤘💚 I did have the pleasure and honor of seeing them in concert back in 2005 which was still the most amazing experience of my life!!!
One thing I love about Pearl Jam is that they rock, but a lot of their songs are optimistic. The women getting away from abuse, the child escaping abuse (she holds the hand that holds her down, she will rise- best lyric line EVER) .
Do you see the way that tree bends? Does it inspire? Leaning out to catch the sun's rays...a lesson to be applied... Are you gettin' something out of this all encompassing trip? You can spend your time alone redigesting past regrets oh... Or you can come to terms and realize You're the only one who can forgive yourself oh yeah... Makes much more sense to live in the present tense... Have you ideas on how this life ends? Checked your hands and studied the lines? Have you the belief that the road ahead ascends off into the light? Seems that needlessly it's gettin' harder To find an approach and a way to live... Are we gettin' something out of this all-encompassing trip? You can spend your time alone redigesting past regrets, oh... Or you can come to terms and realize... You're the only one who cannot forgive yourself, oh... A-makes much more sense to live in the present tense...

This fck song was one of the things that took me out of a depression. PJ is my safe home for 23 years.
PJ is my safe home, too.
Me too, brother. Got a tattoo to honor this masterpiece
This and I am MINE. Keep me alive. Thru the crap. ❤
Same here. Kept me alive, without a doubt
"You're the only one who can't forgive yourself." That got me.
Same
Eddie, thanks for sticking around. You matter a lot.
Dark matter?
I can't imagine the absolute joy musicians must feel when the entire audience sings one of their songs back to them. It must be heaven.
How sweet was it for Last Dance to close out with this underrated masterpiece 😏
good song, not great. would've been sweeter had they bothered to mention the band's relationship w/ rodman in the doc. vedder even sang the national anthem before game 3 of the '98 finals
GOAT BAND FOR A GOAT DOC
@@dice1296 Thanks for adding more detail to this
MJ and PJ! The very best of the USA.
@@dice1296 The Rodman link has absolutely no relevance to the documentary.
If not for our house fire this year and my battle with depression and suicide, I would have done everything to get a side job to see my band that has helped saved my life in MN
You gonna be able to see them on this upcoming tour?
The greatest band ever - I am 48 now ( God that sucks saying lol) and they been with me for my whole life - I am most certainly grateful .
I’m 54. I couldn’t agree more bro.
im 49 and same, cant live a week without listen Eddie
I'm almost 65 I have been a huge Pearl Jam fan since album Ten came out in 1991!! Long Live Pearl Jam!! 😊💓🤘✌️
We're blessed
thats a proper crowd!

Curtis Kleebaum 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤦🤦🤦🤦
When you put it like that, Fuck!!!!
Oh fuck, don't talk like that
Greatest fucking band in the world. I don't even want to think about that day.
This makes me sad

Woah, didn't expect that. Being on 90s PJ concert must have been insane alone, yet with Eddie climbing scaffolding and then even falling on you
The same rolling of eyes
Eddie letting the crowd sing, that's one of the reasons I love PJ, the energy sharing is so honest in both ways. No poses here.
Thats my thoughts exactly!!!!
Eddie letting sing crowd the hardest part of the song ;)
The greatest band ever
That was one of those "Pearl Jam Moments" that the fans who were in the room as well as us who weren't will never forget/cherish to our death bed. Thank god for Pearl Jam
Definitely
I noticed from the tshirts in the crowd, the entire crowd was full of MAJOR PJ fans. I'd say at least half are 10 club members.
No Code was totally underrated. That album was amazing!
Agreed.
My favourite one.
A MASTERPIECE ALBUM! Agreed
Has been my favorite since it released 💗
I doubt the band really give a shit about how the album is rated.
Agreed. I love this album.
Eddie, is a true zen warrior and rock and roll God.
the crowd fucking amazing
Thank you Eddie, ur lyrics. Thank you pearl jam, your selves, unselfish!!!
Letterman had the best ...miss the old times.
The Last Dance took me here. Lyrically beautiful
Eddie's interaction with his fans is incredible. He is extremely humble and grateful!🤩
😍
No Code, best PJ album
This song never fails to bring a lump to my throat. PJ are my favorite band ever but I don't think I appreciated this masterpiece till years later....and every PJ album is full of these gems
I've always loved the message in this song. No Code is this bands secret weapon of an album.
Big fan of No Code as well. Something about this song, up in my tree and smile.
BP O not to mention off he goes
Epic album, def one of their best and most underrated. Yield is still my personal favorite though.
@@Shammrock62 In My Tree a top PJ song of all time.
Off he goes is my favorite PJ song
This song + crowd singing = big time chills.
I love this song ❤
You can spend your time alone redigesting past regrets,
Or you can come to terms and realize...

Of course Last Dance brought me here. Watching MJ rise from that chair to the sound of present tense was the biggest gift to my ears and eyes.

God I love this song
Thank you "The Last Dance" for making this great song your encore song of the great documentary you are. 🤘🤘
This song is special and thought provoking!
F*ing brilliant song and lyrics!

No song has ever saved anybody's life. People who say that are deluded.

Eddie just wows the audience. The audience show their appreciation by singing along and becoming part of Pearl Jam. Love you Eddie 💖💖

Matt Cameron is a beast.
The intricacies of Stone make this outro so much.
So true
I love Jeff’s bass line starting at 3:25
I love when he lets the crowd sing to that hard rocking chorus

What a fantastic song to be singing along with Ed and the band. It was the most intimate and wonderful experience I've ever had that day at the Letterman Aftershow! A day I'll not soon forget. Thanks for the video.
Schatzie DeLuca-Dixon sorry is the fool who did not get to see this show
I know it's PJ but getting the audience at a (the last) Dave Letterman show to sing your song is METAL! Probably this will never happen again.
Greatest band ever!!!!!
2:34 omg eddie...
Man what a feeling it musta been to be there!! 🤘💚 I did have the pleasure and honor of seeing them in concert back in 2005 which was still the most amazing experience of my life!!!
mind blowing!
I love the way he sings "makes much more sense" at 2:52
Forever the best band!
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Best song of PJ, my fav at least, cheers from Spain mates
My God! Still So Amazing!
A perfect analogy for the people we are inspired by and aspire to be, for better or worse . . .
Never heard this song before. mm awesome.
One thing I love about Pearl Jam is that they rock, but a lot of their songs are optimistic. The women getting away from abuse, the child escaping abuse (she holds the hand that holds her down, she will rise- best lyric line EVER) .
PJ forever 🙌🏼 🎸🥁🎶🖤!
Now that’s an audience. Rock out at the end is the best!
Good lyrics
Do you see the way that tree bends? Does it inspire?
Leaning out to catch the sun's rays...a lesson to be applied...
Are you gettin' something out of this all encompassing trip?
You can spend your time alone redigesting past regrets oh...
Or you can come to terms and realize
You're the only one who can forgive yourself oh yeah...
Makes much more sense to live in the present tense...
Have you ideas on how this life ends?
Checked your hands and studied the lines?
Have you the belief that the road ahead ascends off into the light?
Seems that needlessly it's gettin' harder
To find an approach and a way to live...
Are we gettin' something out of this all-encompassing trip?
You can spend your time alone redigesting past regrets, oh...
Or you can come to terms and realize...
You're the only one who cannot forgive yourself, oh...
A-makes much more sense to live in the present tense...
I want to see those coming from The Last Dance :))
Please upload the entire webcast. Love this version
God bless you guys!! Such an inspiration for me over the years!
