I was 25-26 when this aired. We were all partying, happy, drinking having a great time watching the show, it was great. Then he began that initial moaning or whaling. The entire room shut up and focused directly to the TV, maybe 20-25 people. Even though it was basic TV speaker sound we all stood there slack jawed for the next 4 minutes or so. I'll never ever forget it!!! I would be shocked if anyone wasn't moved by that performance! We talked about it the rest of the night. Have never heard anything like it before or since. Happy someone your age group has taken interest and is noticing how special these times and sounds were. Much love.
well, i used to like drinking coffee and having a smoke while listening to pearl jam back then.. and now i like to drink coffee and have a smoke while watching reactors i like listen to music and watch stuff i like, so.. were all good
Every band u listen to, you’ll be saying these are my favourite.. in those days they were all unique and dripping with talent, what a golden age we had
Chris Cornell acoustic version of “Nothing Compares to You” , one of the best vocalist in all of rock history. He fronted the band Soundgarden who were also a huge grunge band along with Pearl Jam and Nirvana. Guaranteed to blow you away with his version of the song which was written by Prince, made a hit by Sinead O’Conner…….but owned by Chris Cornell…..if you like acoustic stuff you will not be disappointed!!!!!
Best version for me, no knock on Sinead…… but Chris owns that one ….. especially since it’s a live performance and it’s done flawlessly with pure passion. To each his own tho
@@andybenetin2926 I’ll be honest Chris Cornell is hit or miss for me, sometimes I like him other times his voice just grinds on me. But Sinead owned nothing compares to you and history reflects it.
Didn't hear Black until I was 24. By chance, I just happened to overhear my cousin playing this on his CD player. I stopped mid-conversation and said "What's this? What band is that?!". And as I listened, it just got better and better. I was absolutely startled. Utterly, utterly beautiful song.
I personally love finding a channel with someone I feel I would vibe with in real life. Then watching them experience all the music I already love along with you. Maybe even discovering some new music myself.
MIA!!! im so happy you have this channel!!! Youre workouts have helped me as a male. Like, your motivation and drive have helped me be a better person. I hope you are doing so well. You deserve it!
Next one from the you gotta see is "Jeremy". But you HAVE to watch the official video. All I'm gonna say is it's based on the true story of Jeremy Wade Dell
Pearl Jam hit the scene when Nirvana started. Same era and still together. Try "Daughter" for songs like this or "Even Flow" and "Go" for fast bangers. ❤❤❤
...and we had to wait to catch I. No digital TV or DVR to record it. After watching it on unplugged, I LOVED it when I would catch the replay. I even bought a brown jacket just like his. The entire time period was golden.
I miss when MTV was still Music Television. Keep doing what makes you happy and remember you don't have to explain or justify yourself to anyone. Don't let the negative energy get to you. You have more love than you know. Stay you stay blessed and keep up the awesome content
Reaction channels are a guilty pleasure. I never thought I would be entertained by these videos. I started watching them in 2016? Late? Idk maybe 2017. To me, it's like watching someone opening a Christmas present you've had and loved and get to pass on to the next, knowing it will change their life. It's why the movie "Almost Famous" is one I will keep suggesting. Love you, Mia.i first heard of you thru the UA-cam algorithm before you had 10. I think you were at 3.5k but the algorithm just spat you out at me, knowing I'd love it. I don't know why. Love you, Mia. And love you "Mia in the Moment". I have since followed and subbed to your other content. I enjoy it all. Not the Of so much cuz i broke lol. But here. You clear it all. So cleanly. Your insight on being new to all this life-style is very much worth watching. Your comments are Raw and balanced. Never offending. That's professional sexy. 👏
Reactions channels are for the most part filled with idiots who want clicks and pretend to love the songs when it's obvious they don't. Many explain the meaning of the song to us, as if we don't know what the f song means. Most are idiots.
IMO the saddest song ever written. Check out the studio version when you have a chance. The line "I know someday you'll have a beautiful life, I know you'll be the star, in somebody else's sky. But why can't it be mine??" get's me every time!
Oh shit, you went with the live acoustic performance. Wonderful. Just more audible proof as to why this is the greatest song of all time. In the history of music where there are thousands of fantastic songs and hundreds of incredible songs, Black by Pearl Jam is the greatest song of all time. Eddie is the goat. Enjoyed your video, Mia. Good luck to you.
Lead Singer: Eddie Vedder Guitarist: Mike McCready Guitarist: Stone Gossard Bassist: Jeff Ament Drummer: Dave Abbruzzese(1991-1994)/ Matt Cameron(since 1998)
absolutely Grunge in every sense of the word.. Pearl Jam, Sound Garden, Nirvana, and Alice in Chains all great Seattle bands. truly this will awe you to the core, Eddie Vedder truly had a voice of his own. truly moving. like this song and many of theirs just makes me feel in awe everytime i hear Pearl Jam.
"Alive", "Jeremy", "Even Flow", "Porch", "Daughter", "State Of Love And Trust", "Release", "Rearviewmirror", "Nothingman", "Better Man", "Given To Fly", "Do The Evolution", "Oceans", "Sirens", "Comes Then Goes", "Dark Matter", "Running", "Corduroy", "Yellow Ledbetter", "Last Kiss", "Elderly Woman Behind The Counter In A Small Town" and "Future Days" are great Pearl Jam songs for you to react to.
gonna do "No Code" like that? red mosquito, off he goes, and others I forget the name of but that album is great. it's when they protested ticketmaster and the radio completely ignored no code. then they came to some agreement and yield hit and they acted like it was some kind of comeback album lol.
Great reaction, you are definitely getting into your groove. Great comments, great song, and I love the "dressed down outfit". Leaves something to the imagination. Seriously, great reaction.
Thank you for enjoying Pearl Jam! So many good songs and albums. My favorite is probably going to be Even Flow, but you can't go wrong with anything off of Ten, like Jeremy or Porch or Alive. Eddie Vedder is my spirit animal, haha. His voice helped me survive the 90's. Thank you for your reaction, and I am glad you enjoyed!
For a smaller channel, let me first tell you that your camera and audio is a 10. Very nice and I wish you nothing but success in your You Tube career. Yea, MTV has a bunch of unplugged sessions and I think you would love some and your fans would love to see you react to them. Have a great holiday season and thanks for sharing this song. I grew up in the 90's and Pearl Jam was a huge part of my generation.
Babe I really like and respect what you said I love what your doing for you and no one else I’m happy for you and I will always be here supporting you by your side ❤
Mia, check out "Alive"(official video). Nothing wrong with live performance but we all heard the album version first, which is what I recommend for all of your reactions.
Pearl Jam is one of the bands I often hear about, but I never checked them 😅 The singer is great, seriously! The song is nice, probably I would have enjoyed knowing the lyrics, I'll listen to it later knowing the lyrics 🤦
I honestly think A LOT of terrific music is being produced today, but when listening to this you can't help but think: Remember when the biggest hits of the day were REALLY and truly great??
My wife died in 2001. She was 28 and, I was 32. My daughters were 8 and 6 when I had to tell them. Sometimes, tattoos are permanent. Sometimes, they are eternal.
Love your channel! I like it even more when I can show my wife your content. You're smart. Your tee makes me (and my wife) so much more interested in YOU. We both listened to u today without one comment between the two of us about how you looked. Refreshing. Great reaction!
Don’t sweat it girl, if you don’t have hater’s & trolls then you’re not doing it right… let them hate while the rest of us appreciate..:) looking beautiful today as usual
Wait until you read and understand the lyrics. I mean that as a positive. Clearly you're hearing it for the first time. You're doing great by the way being a newbie to the scene of classic OG grunge! Super refreshing! :)
Mia just keep doing what you're doing and well done. I hope you have the caption on while you're watching the music videos? It gives you more feelings and emotions for the artist and the songs
I absolutely love this song! Still so emotional even after 30+ years! You should listen to Let Her Cry by Hootie and the Blowfish, or maybe She Talks to Angels by The Black Crows.. both great songs!
You have no idea. When the was first released, there were folks that played this song on beaches and the band had to ask them to stop playing this song as it impacted the lean singer so much.
I saw them perform at an EdgeFest in Dallas the summer before they broke out. They were a late afternoon filler band. Everyone was asking who the fuck are these guys!?!? Their merch booth sold out before I could get a CD. Ispent the next day searching every music store to find 1 CD. Haha good times. Me and my friends went to the lake dropped acid and cranked it up to 11, because that's more than 10. Gen X rules!
90’s grunge was a great time in music. I was in high school during its peak. Such great talent during a relative small window of time. Alice In Chains, Pearl Jam, Nirvana, Stone Temple Pilots, etc. Such a magical time. Kudos to you for giving music you’re not familiar with a try. You will definitely be rewarded, especially given the sorry state of music today compared to what was done in the past.
@MiaintheMoment - Interesting back story on the song is that Eddie didn't want it released. It was a rather deep personal story of lost love. It was even noted once that he got rather upset when he came across a group of people listening to it at a local beach in the sound treating it so casually. While you took the time to do a live listen it may have some value to go back and re-listen to it again and take in the story of the words on the music journey on this one to offer Eddie some love in sharing his pain from his journey ;) Note: My fav is "Even flow" official Video off their page is from concert... Want a feel of Peal Jam Going off live, you'll like it ;)
By the way babe I love you and your channel whether you stay at 20k subscribers or if you hit 1 million I will always be by your side and your number 1❤
I love for Pearl Jam faded with each new album, but their debut album titled "Ten" - part of what you're listening to here - is fantastic. Eddie Vedder is one of the great front men in music. There is a great live performance of their song "Porch [ from PinkPop 1992 ]. It's an amazing experience to see just how cool a lead singer Vedder was in live shows. I hope you check it out some time. Thanks for posting this one.
Mia! Lol. The React community is a nice community. I get you want to be private or maintain an image. You say you hate showing feelings. Life is too short for all that. Lmao. Let go. Besides, the way you stop short when you want to say stuff says it all. 😂❤
the greatest thing MTV ever did was these unplugged concerts. this is also how we introduce people to Pearl Jam with this video/song. Eddie is the only original lead singer left of all the grunge bands, which is an absolute shame. the band was part of my youth and part of a generational voice for all of us. Eric Clapton, Pearl Jam, Alice in Chains, Nirvanna and the 5th best show can be debated. i can not stress enough how big this was when this happened.
Best band of the last 30 years imo. Deep deep catalogue of music where the B sides are often even better than the hits. The official video for Even Flow is the next logical step or alternatively Alive. Then the off the beaten track songs like Release, Betterman, Present Tense, Porch live from Pink Pop and of course Yellow Ledbetter.
Damn right at 9:20 I could have sworn that was the singer's from the Kings Of Leon voice. You should check them out if you haven't. They had a hit with Sex on Fire, but I really like Notion. --also, Eddie vedder was in another group with the singer from Soundgarden called Temple of the Dog. They had a good song called Hunger Strike.
MTV Unplugged was a Fantastic series. The Nirvana and Alice In Chains performances in particular were Amazing, and Pearl Jam was great one too. That would be a cool reaction series to do. Pearl Jam is a great band and Eddie Vedder is one of my favorite singers. He did a song called Hunger Strike with Temple of the Dog with Chris Cornell as the other vocalist who was incredible.
When Pearl Jam formed in 1990/ '91 in Seattle, they were part of a rock scene that was underground... They wrote music and songs that were stripped down to the basics - guitar/ bass/ drums/ vocals... and minimal production values. Nirvana was also a part of that scene... Seattle rock bands by the early 90's were not as musically accomplished but they were very raw and real sonically. By 1991, the music industry was producing polished rock bands w/ big hair and spandex pants (Often called "80's hair metal") at an alarming rate to appeal to pop audiences... It had become to much like fashion formula - a rock band was usually signed from Los Angeles (or somewhere in California) ... We had so many bands that looked and sounded the same; bands like - Firehouse... Slaughter ... Danger Danger... Enuff Z'nuff ... Trixter... Winger ... And every band was expected to have a 'power ballad' single to appeal to female audiences. Producers gave these bands a polished sound w/ keyboards, vocal layers, and songs co-written w/ studio professionals. Their records ran costs in six figures which the bands had to make up in record sales by appearing on MTV and touring. For a bit, Guns N' Roses lit up the scene w/ their brand of hard rock n' roll... but even they were looking like an arena rock act by 1991 on tour and their singer W. Axl Rose personified everything that was wrong w/ the "80's rock star" w/ his tardiness and blowing off GNR fans... People wanted a change in the 90's decade... and that came in late 1991 when Nirvana broke big on MTV and radio. Pearl Jam was formed after another Seattle band Mother Love Bone broke up in 1990 after the OD death of their singer Andrew Wood... Jeff Ament (bass) and Stone Gossard (guitar) brought in Dave Krusen (drums), Mike McCready (guitar) and Eddie Vedder (vocals) and formed Pearl Jam, who were signed at the same time as Nirvana in 1991 to a major record label. Drummer Dave Krusen was soon fired in 1991 after recording the debut album by Pearl Jam. Unlike the 80's bands, Pearl Jam was not interested in catering to female audiences w/ pop ballads and 'crossover' hit singles... They wanted to play imperfect, raw, heavy, emotional and real rock music... They wanted to emulate their heroes like Led Zeppelin... early Kiss... early Aerosmith... Neil Young ... Jimi Hendrix... whose music were great w/ imperfections... Pearl Jam recorded their debut album 'Ten' in 1991 and they were rather unhappy that producer Rick Parashar glossed over their sound on the record. However, w/ Nirvana breaking big in 1991, it was Pearl Jam's turn in 1992 to see their album 'Ten' on the charts as the band appeared on MTV and radio... That album sold over 12 million copies in the US to date (Outselling Nirvana's album 'Nevermind') w/ hits like 'Jeremy' ... 'Alive' ... 'Even flow' ... 'Black'... In 1993, Pearl Jam switched producers to Brendan O'Brien and delivered a raw & heavier rock record 'Vs.' (versus) and it went to #1 on the US charts... Pearl Jam disappeared from MTV and only promoted their records by radio or touring... They are not as revolutionary as they were in the 90's but their brand of hard rock still captures new generations of rock fans.
New Sub! You're fantastic! Glad you're discovering these tunes for the first time. Suggestions: "Saved By Zero" by the Fixx, and "No One Is To Blame" by Howard Jones.
I miss MTV unplugged so much, There's no autotune, no distortion, just the band and their talent. Really wish they would bring it back.
Stripped down talent!
Pre post production...
MTV still plays music?
@ don’t think it has in years.
really, it was studio fixed. love you for thinking that.
" I know someday you'll have a beautiful life. I know you'll be a star. In somebody else's sky but why cant it be in mine?" Great song
My favorite line in any song.
I was 25-26 when this aired. We were all partying, happy, drinking having a great time watching the show, it was great. Then he began that initial moaning or whaling. The entire room shut up and focused directly to the TV, maybe 20-25 people. Even though it was basic TV speaker sound we all stood there slack jawed for the next 4 minutes or so. I'll never ever forget it!!! I would be shocked if anyone wasn't moved by that performance! We talked about it the rest of the night. Have never heard anything like it before or since. Happy someone your age group has taken interest and is noticing how special these times and sounds were. Much love.
well, i used to like drinking coffee and having a smoke while listening to pearl jam back then.. and now i like to drink coffee and have a smoke while watching reactors i like listen to music and watch stuff i like, so.. were all good
Eddie Vedder did a song with Chris Cornell and Chris Cornell's band Temple Of The Dogs called "Hunger Strike". There voices together are amazing.
Super good way to be introduced to the god that is Chris Cornell. Anything from Soundgarden or Audioslave is amazing
@@nathanlandry1016 CC’s solo work shows off his pure talent and musicianship as an artist
I love your honesty Mia and I love watching your reactions because you give us your honest opinions on your reaction videos
Every band u listen to, you’ll be saying these are my favourite.. in those days they were all unique and dripping with talent, what a golden age we had
Chris Cornell acoustic version of “Nothing Compares to You” , one of the best vocalist in all of rock history. He fronted the band Soundgarden who were also a huge grunge band along with Pearl Jam and Nirvana. Guaranteed to blow you away with his version of the song which was written by Prince, made a hit by Sinead O’Conner…….but owned by Chris Cornell…..if you like acoustic stuff you will not be disappointed!!!!!
She hasn’t done Chris or Soundgarden yet?? 😮
It isn’t even the best version of nothing compares to you. Sinead O’Connor did it much better.
Best version for me, no knock on Sinead…… but Chris owns that one ….. especially since it’s a live performance and it’s done flawlessly with pure passion. To each his own tho
@ I have to agree with you!
@@andybenetin2926 I’ll be honest Chris Cornell is hit or miss for me, sometimes I like him other times his voice just grinds on me. But Sinead owned nothing compares to you and history reflects it.
Didn't hear Black until I was 24. By chance, I just happened to overhear my cousin playing this on his CD player. I stopped mid-conversation and said "What's this? What band is that?!". And as I listened, it just got better and better. I was absolutely startled. Utterly, utterly beautiful song.
It’s funny cause this is the earliest song I can actually remember loving. Like when I was 2, lol. Some of my earliest memories are of this song.
MTV was the thing of the day, watching listening to MTV before school was a reason to get up
I personally love finding a channel with someone I feel I would vibe with in real life. Then watching them experience all the music I already love along with you. Maybe even discovering some new music myself.
MIA!!! im so happy you have this channel!!! Youre workouts have helped me as a male. Like, your motivation and drive have helped me be a better person. I hope you are doing so well. You deserve it!
Mia really enjoy your reactions, music is one thing that can bring people together from all walks of life. Stay strong which I can see you truly are
Next one from the you gotta see is "Jeremy". But you HAVE to watch the official video. All I'm gonna say is it's based on the true story of Jeremy Wade Dell
Yes, the original song and video are shockingly great! I love the album 10.
You have a great personality and I love your reactions. I totally understand wanting to compartmentalize your online presence
Thank you for being real, and genuine, true to yourself
Pearl Jam hit the scene when Nirvana started. Same era and still together. Try "Daughter" for songs like this or "Even Flow" and "Go" for fast bangers. ❤❤❤
This entire album was so huge. I must have listened to it a thousand times. The 90's were awesome, so much nostalgia with this song.
...and we had to wait to catch I. No digital TV or DVR to record it. After watching it on unplugged, I LOVED it when I would catch the replay. I even bought a brown jacket just like his. The entire time period was golden.

I was around in the 70’s and 80’s but grunge was huge in the 90’s which was the last era I liked 😂
Great reaction, Mia. This is song has so much feeling behind it. Keep being true to who you are and let your light shine through. *hugs* ❤️🙏😊

Not only acoustic but a live one take, seriously the best version of this song ever.
You have an amazing personality,one of my favorite reacting channels.
Lead Singer: Eddie Vedder
Guitarist: Mike McCready
Guitarist: Stone Gossard
Bassist: Jeff Ament
Drummer: Dave Abbruzzese(1991-1994)/ Matt Cameron(since 1998)
Stone and Mike are both phenomenal guitarists. Anyone who studies guitar should watch their playing & interviews.
Pearl Jam is a amazing band I have a good feeling you're going to love them and my favorite Pearl Jam song is there song Black 💙
absolutely Grunge in every sense of the word.. Pearl Jam, Sound Garden, Nirvana, and Alice in Chains all great Seattle bands. truly this will awe you to the core, Eddie Vedder truly had a voice of his own. truly moving. like this song and many of theirs just makes me feel in awe everytime i hear Pearl Jam.
song starts at 6:39
"Alive", "Jeremy", "Even Flow", "Porch", "Daughter", "State Of Love And Trust", "Release", "Rearviewmirror", "Nothingman", "Better Man", "Given To Fly", "Do The Evolution", "Oceans", "Sirens", "Comes Then Goes", "Dark Matter", "Running", "Corduroy", "Yellow Ledbetter", "Last Kiss", "Elderly Woman Behind The Counter In A Small Town" and "Future Days" are great Pearl Jam songs for you to react to.
You can never go wrong with Pearl Jam
Great list!
I’ve always liked “Dissident”
gonna do "No Code" like that? red mosquito, off he goes, and others I forget the name of but that album is great. it's when they protested ticketmaster and the radio completely ignored no code. then they came to some agreement and yield hit and they acted like it was some kind of comeback album lol.
Great reaction, you are definitely getting into your groove. Great comments, great song, and I love the "dressed down outfit". Leaves something to the imagination. Seriously, great reaction.
Eddie Vedder is pure emotion. Welcome to Pearl Jam!
Just seen them here in their hometown Chicago. Eddie and the band still rocking it and sounding great. You should check out their Jeremy video next.
Thank you for enjoying Pearl Jam! So many good songs and albums. My favorite is probably going to be Even Flow, but you can't go wrong with anything off of Ten, like Jeremy or Porch or Alive. Eddie Vedder is my spirit animal, haha. His voice helped me survive the 90's. Thank you for your reaction, and I am glad you enjoyed!
Music isn't music unless it moves you. When you feel the emotion the artist has done their job.
“Even Flow” by Pearl Jam is my favourite.
For a smaller channel, let me first tell you that your camera and audio is a 10. Very nice and I wish you nothing but success in your You Tube career. Yea, MTV has a bunch of unplugged sessions and I think you would love some and your fans would love to see you react to them. Have a great holiday season and thanks for sharing this song.

Such a deep song with a great performance
Thank you for your reaction. I like Pearl Jam so much. I recomend "Better man" next.
Eddie vedder the lead singer didn't wanna put this song on the album...but his band mates convinced him
Awesome live performance! Mia you should check out Chris Stapleton Tennessee whiskey (live at Austin City)
One of the best live performances ever. 😎
Babe I really like and respect what you said I love what your doing for you and no one else I’m happy for you and I will always be here supporting you by your side ❤
Sinead O'Connor "Nothing compares to you. " A great song for you to listen to and react. Song written by Prince.
And a superb cover by Chris Cornell (as always) as well.
The mtv unplugged shows from nirvanna,Pearl Jam,and Alice In Chains are legendary.
Where PJ really shines is plugged in and the amps cranked to 11. PJ is a real touring rock band that can play anything live
Mia, check out "Alive"(official video). Nothing wrong with live performance but we all heard the album version first, which is what I recommend for all of your reactions.
The studio original is still my favorite song by them, utterly perfect.
Pearl Jam is one of the bands I often hear about, but I never checked them 😅
The singer is great, seriously!
The song is nice, probably I would have enjoyed knowing the lyrics, I'll listen to it later knowing the lyrics 🤦
I honestly think A LOT of terrific music is being produced today, but when listening to this you can't help but think: Remember when the biggest hits of the day were REALLY and truly great??
My wife died in 2001. She was 28 and, I was 32. My daughters were 8 and 6 when I had to tell them. Sometimes, tattoos are permanent. Sometimes, they are eternal.
Would definitely be down to see an acoustic series.
Flawless song love the video Mia stay motivated Dream big 1 mill on the way ❤
Love your channel! I like it even more when I can show my wife your content. You're smart. Your tee makes me (and my wife) so much more interested in YOU. We both listened to u today without one comment between the two of us about how you looked. Refreshing. Great reaction!
You have an infectious cool talent w/o you exposing controversial beautiful body. Your simple talent is awesome and enough.
Don’t sweat it girl, if you don’t have hater’s & trolls then you’re not doing it right… let them hate while the rest of us appreciate..:) looking beautiful today as usual
Wait until you read and understand the lyrics. I mean that as a positive. Clearly you're hearing it for the first time. You're doing great by the way being a newbie to the scene of classic OG grunge! Super refreshing! :)
This band was from my formative years, nice to see newer generations enjoying it
Mia just keep doing what you're doing and well done. I hope you have the caption on while you're watching the
music videos? It gives you more feelings and emotions for the artist and the songs
I absolutely love this song! Still so emotional even after 30+ years! You should listen to Let Her Cry by Hootie and the Blowfish, or maybe She Talks to Angels by The Black Crows.. both great songs!
I love your reactions, thank you for being yourself, glad to see you exploring different styles of music your not familiar with , hood job

Please listen to the studio version,too! 🖤 Different, but sooo amasing!!!
You’re doing a fantastic job. Obviously more than looks ✌🏻✌🏻✌🏻
Awesome reaction babe glad you lived it I lived it too❤
When will you react to 2 pac - keep ya head up ? 😢 been waiting for so long…
Their song “Dissident” has always been one of my favorites.
You’re doing an amazing job on your channel.
2024 and Pearl Jam still best band on the planet
You should definitely check out the video to their song Even Flow to see how much fun a Pearl Jam concert was in the 90's. Great reaction. 😊
MTV Unplugged was so good. Massive shoutout to the sound engineers. Pearl Jam and Alice In Chains Unplugged performances were epic (personal opinion).
@MiaintheMoment - Interesting back story on the song is that Eddie didn't want it released. It was a rather deep personal story of lost love. It was even noted once that he got rather upset when he came across a group of people listening to it at a local beach in the sound treating it so casually. While you took the time to do a live listen it may have some value to go back and re-listen to it again and take in the story of the words on the music journey on this one to offer Eddie some love in sharing his pain from his journey ;) Note: My fav is "Even flow" official Video off their page is from concert... Want a feel of Peal Jam Going off live, you'll like it ;)
Eddie's voice is at its best in "Release .. live Holland" .. simply surreal.
I think "Even Flow" is the next track from Pearl Jam you should check out
Hey Mia great pick. This song is so damn good. It's off their album Ten. A couple other good songs to listen to are Jeremy, and Even Flow
Realease ,live from Holland 1992…… amazing performance!!!! Definitely worth checking out.
Alice in Chains "Nutshell" on MTV Unplugged is legendary 👌
By the way babe I love you and your channel whether you stay at 20k subscribers or if you hit 1 million I will always be by your side and your number 1❤
I love for Pearl Jam faded with each new album, but their debut album titled "Ten" - part of what you're listening to here - is fantastic. Eddie Vedder is one of the great front men in music. There is a great live performance of their song "Porch [ from PinkPop 1992 ]. It's an amazing experience to see just how cool a lead singer Vedder was in live shows. I hope you check it out some time. Thanks for posting this one.
Sorry - should be "My love for Pearl Jam.."
Mia! Lol. The React community is a nice community. I get you want to be private or maintain an image. You say you hate showing feelings. Life is too short for all that. Lmao. Let go. Besides, the way you stop short when you want to say stuff says it all. 😂❤
I remember watching this for the first time it AIRED ON MTV in 92 I think 🤔
They released a New album this year called Dark Matter ! One of their best albums ! The song Scared Of Fear is great ! Greetings from France 🥂🌹🌹🌹 🌹
the greatest thing MTV ever did was these unplugged concerts. this is also how we introduce people to Pearl Jam with this video/song. Eddie is the only original lead singer left of all the grunge bands, which is an absolute shame. the band was part of my youth and part of a generational voice for all of us. Eric Clapton, Pearl Jam, Alice in Chains, Nirvanna and the 5th best show can be debated. i can not stress enough how big this was when this happened.
rearviewmirror, state of love and trust and even flow should be the next ones, that way you can add them to your playlist for the gym :)
Best band of the last 30 years imo. Deep deep catalogue of music where the B sides are often even better than the hits. The official video for Even Flow is the next logical step or alternatively Alive.
Then the off the beaten track songs like Release, Betterman, Present Tense, Porch live from Pink Pop and of course Yellow Ledbetter.
The song Release will break your heart.
The entire album this and Release are off of is AMAZING.
You should do Pearl Jam - Porch - Pink Pop Fest 1992. If you really wanna be blown away.
This is a REALLY INTENSE, EMOTIONAL PERFORMANCE, you can see it's very personal to EDDIE
We are a lot alike. I'm a Homebody and love keeping myself entertained with great music. 🤘😎
Great choice doing the unplugged version . Love it
This is actual 90’s grunge alternative music.
I have two words about the singer Eddie Vedder - Hair Envy. 😆 Seriously, these guys are awesome to this day.
Damn right at 9:20 I could have sworn that was the singer's from the Kings Of Leon voice. You should check them out if you haven't. They had a hit with Sex on Fire, but I really like Notion. --also, Eddie vedder was in another group with the singer from Soundgarden called Temple of the Dog. They had a good song called Hunger Strike.
He was going through a DIVORCE I think, and it really HURT HIM, this song is about "LETTING GO"
MTV Unplugged was a Fantastic series. The Nirvana and Alice In Chains performances in particular were Amazing, and Pearl Jam was great one too. That would be a cool reaction series to do.
Pearl Jam is a great band and Eddie Vedder is one of my favorite singers. He did a song called Hunger Strike with Temple of the Dog with Chris Cornell as the other vocalist who was incredible.
THE "Bitches ain't about shit!" Song from the 90s
When Pearl Jam formed in 1990/ '91 in Seattle, they were part of a rock scene that was underground... They wrote music and songs that were stripped down to the basics - guitar/ bass/ drums/ vocals... and minimal production values. Nirvana was also a part of that scene... Seattle rock bands by the early 90's were not as musically accomplished but they were very raw and real sonically.
By 1991, the music industry was producing polished rock bands w/ big hair and spandex pants (Often called "80's hair metal") at an alarming rate to appeal to pop audiences... It had become to much like fashion formula - a rock band was usually signed from Los Angeles (or somewhere in California) ... We had so many bands that looked and sounded the same; bands like - Firehouse... Slaughter ... Danger Danger... Enuff Z'nuff ... Trixter... Winger ... And every band was expected to have a 'power ballad' single to appeal to female audiences. Producers gave these bands a polished sound w/ keyboards, vocal layers, and songs co-written w/ studio professionals. Their records ran costs in six figures which the bands had to make up in record sales by appearing on MTV and touring.
For a bit, Guns N' Roses lit up the scene w/ their brand of hard rock n' roll... but even they were looking like an arena rock act by 1991 on tour and their singer W. Axl Rose personified everything that was wrong w/ the "80's rock star" w/ his tardiness and blowing off GNR fans... People wanted a change in the 90's decade... and that came in late 1991 when Nirvana broke big on MTV and radio.
Pearl Jam was formed after another Seattle band Mother Love Bone broke up in 1990 after the OD death of their singer Andrew Wood... Jeff Ament (bass) and Stone Gossard (guitar) brought in Dave Krusen (drums), Mike McCready (guitar) and Eddie Vedder (vocals) and formed Pearl Jam, who were signed at the same time as Nirvana in 1991 to a major record label.
Drummer Dave Krusen was soon fired in 1991 after recording the debut album by Pearl Jam.
Unlike the 80's bands, Pearl Jam was not interested in catering to female audiences w/ pop ballads and 'crossover' hit singles... They wanted to play imperfect, raw, heavy, emotional and real rock music... They wanted to emulate their heroes like Led Zeppelin... early Kiss... early Aerosmith... Neil Young ... Jimi Hendrix... whose music were great w/ imperfections... Pearl Jam recorded their debut album 'Ten' in 1991 and they were rather unhappy that producer Rick Parashar glossed over their sound on the record.
However, w/ Nirvana breaking big in 1991, it was Pearl Jam's turn in 1992 to see their album 'Ten' on the charts as the band appeared on MTV and radio... That album sold over 12 million copies in the US to date (Outselling Nirvana's album 'Nevermind') w/ hits like 'Jeremy' ... 'Alive' ... 'Even flow' ... 'Black'...
In 1993, Pearl Jam switched producers to Brendan O'Brien and delivered a raw & heavier rock record 'Vs.' (versus) and it went to #1 on the US charts... Pearl Jam disappeared from MTV and only promoted their records by radio or touring... They are not as revolutionary as they were in the 90's but their brand of hard rock still captures new generations of rock fans.
New Sub! You're fantastic! Glad you're discovering these tunes for the first time. Suggestions: "Saved By Zero" by the Fixx, and "No One Is To Blame" by Howard Jones.
