+dereksbooks Those are the examples you name? Swift and Drake are hardly worth mentioning in a negative light. Now, if you had mentioned Chris Brown and Kanye West, than you'd be on the right track.
The one live show I went to was everything I ever wanted. Tossing tambourines, sharing wine, jumping around it’s just as much fun for them as it was for everyone in the stadium. Love em!!!
Because eddie is that kid that happened to even meet his heroes and be appreciated by them. He always puts joy and respect in his covers, way more than when playing his own songs
@@EclecticCleric Spot on. Pearl Jam have so much energy, like the Who did in the day. Every one of the band were loving and having fun with their performance 👏👏👏👏👏👏
Fantastic! I can't choose which is the best, this cover or the original. But i guess it doesn't really matter. Great job, so powerful. Thanks God Pearl Jam and The Who exist!
I made it a tradition to always listened to this performance at the end of every college semester to celebrate my hard work, I just turned in my last exam for senior year and it’s so crazy to look back at where I was the last several times I listen to this
I honstly don't know what it is, but this whole video gives off amazing vibes for me. I feel like they are all so happy when they are paying tribute to the who, especially since the crowd gets so into it. I know that pumps the artists up even more. great vid, great band, great song.
And why not? Performing a rock & roll classic - no, the anthem of the rock & roll generation - in the cathedral of rock & roll, with 15,000 fans singing along - no, taking over - it's every rocker's dream!
Just love the energy that the whole band brings to this song. And off course the audience singing in tandem for that short chorus. All in all just love Pearl Jam wit this classic
Agreed, this is about the best part of it. You have PJ playing a cover and the audience still belt it out like it's one of their own. That's exactly how it would have gone down in a The Who gig. Big smiles all round... it's a damn nice cover.
I saw The Who -- with Pino Palladino & Zach Starkey -- maybe 10 years ago at a huge venue. I was there with my 20-something son, & there were people who were there w/their children _and_ grandchildren. Three generatiions belting out "Don't cry, don't raise your eye, it's only teenage wasteland." "Epic" is an overused term, but that truly was an epic moment. And I hope that I live to take _my_ grandchild to experience the sharing of great music across generations.
Never imagined any band other than The Who performing this song. A pretty good rendition, of course, missing several of the classic elements, but obviously the crowd grew up listening to our fogey rock ... and loved every second of it.
Probably the ONLY Band out there that can cover this song!!!! I have yet to see a GREAT cover of this song! Eddie pulls it off! Hell he is one of very few lead young guys that the old MASTERS of rock would allow on the stage with them. Eddie is always on stage with some GREAT classic rocker.
Brilliant band! Without doubt the closest to The Who, who are my favourite band of all time, but growing up I also liked Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin, Yes and a few others, but if I was young today, Pearl Jam would be my #1 favourite band - they have musical talent, amazing energy and stage presence (as The Who did when they took the rock world by storm!) They're superb 👏👏👏👏👏👏
And here we have a bunch of blokes enjoying themselves on stage and getting the entire crowd pumped. In other words, a good old fashioned bunch of fun!
what a massive kick, to play a fantastic song, from one of your biggest idols ... and pull it off!!!! awesome Pearl Jam!!!!!! .... one of the few who could do it!
The one guy who could sing this song BETTER than Roger Daltrey! This has got to be the GREATEST Old meets New stage performances. To see the utter joy on Roger Daltrey's face playing with these amazing musicians and stage performers. It probably was his greatest gig ever. It is like watching the inventor of the combustion engine see what it's like to be turned into a Harley.
In my opinion, WHO are best rock band ever...with Tommy and Quadrophenia they catched immortality! And, hear a group of 2 generation after, pay tribute to them with this joy and involvement is fantastic!

Music is the best facet of humanity
Albert Hofmann And also the worst, see Taylor Swift, Drake, etc.

***** An ego-maniac who throws a public tantrum so often that you could set your watch to isn't bad?
La La Land sounds like a lovely place.
Matthew VandenBerg What William said. I was referring to the actual music. No judgment on Swift as a person. I don't know anything about her.
lol. this song is old school. was this on ranbow or w.ever his name is or some movie w/Arnold s.? feels tread millish
Is it just me or does that show look like the most fun in the world?
They always are!!!! ;)
The one live show I went to was everything I ever wanted. Tossing tambourines, sharing wine, jumping around it’s just as much fun for them as it was for everyone in the stadium. Love em!!!
My absolute dream is to go to a Pearl Jam show. It’s bucket list for me!
Because it's from 2003, before the world decided to spend their life looking at/through a cell phone instead of enjoying something live.
When people were not enslaved to use their mobiles
A song you wish would never end
casperld and you wish you could right something as good stands up today
Well said!
The Who contributed some real masterpieces!
Ikrr
i wish wishlist never end
The crowd singing, chills.
Spot on. Best part of the performance for me as well.
No generation was considered more of a teenage wasteland than the X-ers. This is out anthem.
Man....the smiles on these guys faces. It's always fun playing the songs of your heroes.
You will never find a band that looks to be more genuinely happy when doing a a cover than Pearl Jam.
Nirvana
Because eddie is that kid that happened to even meet his heroes and be appreciated by them. He always puts joy and respect in his covers, way more than when playing his own songs
Best “Baba O’Riley” cover I’ve ever listened to. It’s got the pure spirit of the original, but it’s great in its own way.
Agreed. I always caution against covering The Who - no one has as much energy, but this is close.
@@EclecticCleric Spot on. Pearl Jam have so much energy, like the Who did in the day. Every one of the band were loving and having fun with their performance 👏👏👏👏👏👏
Fantastic! I can't choose which is the best, this cover or the original. But i guess it doesn't really matter. Great job, so powerful. Thanks God Pearl Jam and The Who exist!
There was not a single person in this arena that wasn't happy. Epic.
that was beautiful when the crowd sang it PERFECTLY!!!!
That’s what Pearl Jam fans are the bomb diggity!
Gave me chills lol
Best moment of the song.
Eddie Vedder even in a dad t-shirt and short hair still oozes rock star class.
Came to check someone had made this comment.
@@thethrowawaythatstayed7055 hahah cheers!!
Even looking like Paul Reiser he still nails it. Lol 😅👍
ahah how did he choose this cloth ? he slept in the wrong house ? he looks like fresh outta the church
Eddie was almost 40 at this time, he looks like a dad with class lmao
I made it a tradition to always listened to this performance at the end of every college semester to celebrate my hard work, I just turned in my last exam for senior year and it’s so crazy to look back at where I was the last several times I listen to this
One of the best Baba O Riley covers, Pearl Jam kept the heart and soul of this classic - Great tribute to The Who.
the amount of joy everyone had when they recognized the song is what rock and roll is all about
His voice is friggin legendary!!
I saw Pearl Jam play Baba O'Riley in 1993, it was a spiritual experience.
Am 65 year old man I have seen the who 5 times. This is the best cover of this rock anthem. Great job
Jeff is so adorable! jumping around like a happy kid! This crowd is beautiful! I wish I was there
I didn’t know I needed to hear this today!
As one of many millions of "Biggest Who Fans In The World" I highly approve of the energy and rockingness here!
How think in a different way...that's MUSIC & LIFE!!!
Long live The Who!!
The best cover of this classic ever, and they are having fun with it as well.
I honstly don't know what it is, but this whole video gives off amazing vibes for me. I feel like they are all so happy when they are paying tribute to the who, especially since the crowd gets so into it. I know that pumps the artists up even more. great vid, great band, great song.
Zachary Bueche I totally agree. The crowd was awesome! Pre-smartphone era....
they look like jerk offs to me!
😀

Drummer is absolutely KILLER!
Now that’s music and what it does to people is evidently shown in this video and I’m loving it 🥰
What a fucking great audience
Agreed, this is about the best part of it. You have PJ playing a cover and the audience still belt it out like it's one of their own. That's exactly how it would have gone down in a The Who gig. Big smiles all round... it's a damn nice cover.
+kittehhatetube agree
I went to the show.
Friggin teary-eyed after watching all that awesomeness!
I can only imagine what it must feel like to have 30 or 40k people singing the lyrics back at you...my God.... awesomeness...
agree
You actually feel the force of the crowds voice coming up on you thick
That's the best feeling for musicians on stage.. the reason to tour imo
@@tonymanfredi6844 True!
I saw The Who -- with Pino Palladino & Zach Starkey -- maybe 10 years ago at a huge venue. I was there with my 20-something son, & there were people who were there w/their children _and_ grandchildren. Three generatiions belting out "Don't cry, don't raise your eye, it's only teenage wasteland."

I saw them perform this November 23, 2013 in Los Angeles. This song live is magic. I love you PJ. Best experience in my 19 years of life.
The best cover I've seen. Everyone there gained an extra year of life from that energy.
Never imagined any band other than The Who performing this song. A pretty good rendition, of course, missing several of the classic elements, but obviously the crowd grew up listening to our fogey rock ... and loved every second of it.
This looks like so much fun! I want to see them live so bad :(
Real rock, real bands, plays tribute and crowd is pumped! AWESOME!
Peal Jam and The Who... that's just f*ng awesome.
All Pearl Jam shows are the greatest fun in the world
Okay, they did justice to one of rock's greatest anthems! Long live rock!

Thank you Pearl Jam ,,and every one who made this possible ,Rock on !!!!
probably the best who cover ive heard......ty PJ
your5 comment is 3 years ago...yea you are right-),,
I’m not even a Pearl Jam fan(I’m old) but Id give anything to be back in that fun time period and I really love watching Matt Camron play the drums.
Fan Man at 0:12 understands what's about to go down

LesSmith45 Eddie's favorite band is the Who, he became friends with them and sang with them several times.
Mr Big did an impressive cover of this.....ua-cam.com/video/IftwNKO_1WE/v-deo.html
I just heard the original and thought to myself "man wouldn't it be great if Eddie Vedder sang this"
I'm so glad he did lol
This band is everything that's right about the music biz
Brilliant band!

Wow, these guys look like they are having the most fun. Everyone.
1:42... holy. crap.
Very amazing: Pearl Jam sing who all together with Madison Square public
And here we have a bunch of blokes enjoying themselves on stage and getting the entire crowd pumped. In other words, a good old fashioned bunch of fun!
John Entwistle died just a year before this concert. RIP John "The Ox" Entwistle aka THUNDER FINGERS!
Eddie is the cutest and so full of energy. Pearl Jam having so much fun. Would have loved Tto have been at this Madison Square Garden concert 🖐🖐💖💖🇦🇺🇦🇺
It is so so so so cool that my new favorite Band PJ is huge fans of my last favorite band of the last 50 years - THE WHO!!!!!
Is very good baba in the duo tube verry good
These Lads are at the Top Of Their Game....FEFREK'NPHENOMINAL
I love Pearl Jam, I love this cover and I f*cking love the Steve Diggle's smiling face. He is so happy to be there, just like a kid playing
3:38 Aw, Moon use to go off right about here.
Like Moon ever needed a time stamp to go off.
Please explain. Who is Moon?
@@kevinneely9878 Keith Moon, the drummer for The Who
@@kevinneely9878 just curios, how old are you?
@@JonBecker81 haha ikr. how the hell
Music is a Gift.
Holy shit the crowd singing gave me chills. I love this video.
It's so good to see that my favourite band is Pearl Jam and Eddie's favourite is The Who :)
This video makes me happy. Everyone is having so much fun.
Love this performance!! Love the 2003 Pearl Jam, so powerful!! Everyone is having a blast!! Eddie does the best covers. Thank you for sharing!! 😊💓🤘✌️
Epic. Best voice in rock and roll 🎸
Superb cover ❤️
This is not a T.V. Studio...Josh! Turn these lights out! This is a fucking rock concert.
hahahaha! yup Josh is at it again!
This is the final encore, they always turn on the house lights to let the audience know they are the 7th member of Pearl Jam.
@@heyyou9693
It went over your head.
@@travzimmerman1340 "it went over my head"
Back ground vocals: "over my head"
"but it sure feels nice"
Background vocals again: "over my head"
@@travzimmerman1340 it appears my comment went over your head, if you catch my drift. By the way, are you from Minnesota, fly over country?
No better band to cover this! 👍👌🤘
really really done well! felt it in the soul!
what a massive kick, to play a fantastic song, from one of your biggest idols ... and pull it off!!!! awesome Pearl Jam!!!!!! .... one of the few who could do it!
Keith Moon Still lives in all of you
Ah, younger Eddie Vedder rockin' that high school history teacher look. So weird to see now
yeshie Mr.Vedder will this song be on the test?
wish he was my history teacher..... long long time ago than we've made some history. omg this is so cliche
@@doreendekruyf2430 *creepy
How old is he here?
@@jennifersmith6597 2003 so he was maybe 40
Best cover..👍
The one guy who could sing this song BETTER than Roger Daltrey! This has got to be the GREATEST Old meets New stage performances. To see the utter joy on Roger Daltrey's face playing with these amazing musicians and stage performers. It probably was his greatest gig ever. It is like watching the inventor of the combustion engine see what it's like to be turned into a Harley.
Roger Daltrey isn't in this video. That's Tony from the Buzzcocks.
To say that it's better than Daltrey and that Daltrey is on the stage...two stupid things said in a row.
Exactly. It's a fine cover but don't be an idiot.
Everyone's having so much fun.
That's pure gold.
01:42 maldito y querido rock n roll........gracias The Who..!!!
Probaly the best cover ive heard of this song. Awesome
This sounds so P E R F E C T 😍
I kinda like the Mod version of Pearl Jam
Mod version?
Awesome!!!!
3:33 Eddie falls over. Lol, takes it like a champ.
He always falls over lol poor thing
Probably due to the 3-4 bottles of wine he downs per set lol
I also never noticed that lol and I've owned this DVD since it came out
LOL, damn
FANTASTIC
WONDERFUL!!!!!!!!!
Simplesmente maravilhoso!!!❣❣❣❣❣❣❣❣❣❣❣❣❣❣
Fabuloso.
Lo mejor!! Eddy eres único ❤
That’s awesome.
great cover
Holy sh*t, that' a lotta people having a lotta fun. Including every damn gentleman on stage.
Vedder...his voice...I will make their concert this year somehow!
This looks it would be such a fun song to play.
Music is one of the most important things for your soul ❤️
In my opinion, WHO are best rock band ever...with Tommy and Quadrophenia they catched immortality! And, hear a group of 2 generation after, pay tribute to them with this joy and involvement is fantastic!
Eddie Rocks!!!!! OMG it's amazing and I love Matt Cameron!!!
The happiness The Who brought to the world , 😎🙌🤘
Epic!
Yes!!!!!!!!!❤😊❤
I’m in that crowd someplace. It was one of the loudest and rowdiest shows I’ve ever been to.
Great great great!!!
Awesome. Nice to see these young people appreciate this great song.
Who on this tiny planet thumbs downed this epic performance?
maybe his screen was upside down
they had fun on stage :')
