As someone who likes Pearl Jam, I see absolutely no issues this sounds amazing

I like Pearl Jam but English is not my first language so it took me a moment to realise what's going on. >_>

@Straight White Fatherly Figure I'm a fan and was over-the-hill even back then ...still like 'em.

I love PJ. I lmao at this!! TIRI is an amazing channel run by someone super talented. Can’t deny!! 😂☺👍🏼

Probably could make some good money translating Biden & Fettermen.

I'm like yeah this version is totally rad.

As someone who has never liked Pearl Jam, it doesn't sound different from any other time I've ever heard Pearl Jam.

He did say that when he's happy he looks insane, technically he gave us a heads up

I really really wanna learn this mess and cover it.flawlessly

It's ok to admit  you like terrible music!

It's ok to admit  you like terrible music!

Yep they nailed it for me just about every song they do sounds just like that. God I could not stand the Seattle scene especially them.😂

I've never listen to Pearl Jam before but if it sounds like this I might be interested the sounded great actually no joke

Anyone here ever saw them doing this tune on an MTV  live acoustic  performance around early '90s?<br>Well if you missed it,... find it on you tube- it's emmence!! 🎉

as someone who utterly and completely hates them i believe you.

@deadass deadass You got that right! Well, maybe not quite as bad as them!

You like Pearl Jam because this sounds amazing to you.

I wasn't very familiar with Pearl Jam before I heard this, but I thought it actually sounded pretty good, so I went and listened to the original.

Turns out I like Pearl Jam.

@Zero Point Star Nirvana was big as fuck in '91. Before Pearl Jam was. Nevermind was huge when it was out. Teen Spirit was everywhere. Where were you?
Came before and was Bigger than Ten.
That's not to say better than Ten. It's not.
But Nirvana wasn't only big when Kurt died. They already had a buzz when Nevermind came out. Couple albums down and live shows before PJ even existed.

@Juicicles The only reason Nirvana became bigger than Pearl Jam was Kurt’s suicide. I am a fan of Nirvana, but Pearl Jam was the king of the grunge mountain.

Right on man! I was kinda hoping there would be some Yellow Ledbetter looped in.

I'm willing to bet that you even liked the extra doo-baba-doo-baba-doos

@Straight White Fatherly Figure I understand the 90's, as was a teenager back then, and never loved Pearl Jam except for one song or two

The pixies are way better than pearl jam

The pixies are way better than pearl jam

i don’t trust the opinions of nevernudes sry abt it

As someone that knows and loves Eddie, personally. Have sat through a Cubs loss in the bleachers with him... but we had tacos after so it was still fun. I kinda think of his wine bottle onstage as Mom's influence in his life, young. <br>"Hey now... again" is real fucking funny.

"Hey now... again" is real fucking funny.

From a psychologist’s perspective, people who don’t like PJ are indistinguishable from sociopaths

@KT can't...  Stop... Dying ... 😂 THANK YOU!

Same! It's a tricky song to sing what with the lyrics I can't make out but I don't mind. Some songs you just listen to. I ❤ that voice!!

Same here! Right on dude! "Mary had a little lamb" would go platinum if Eddie released it!! 😊😛😄👍👍👍

@Tom Weissinger yeah only people who understand the 90s, understands why pearl jam rocks lol

Pearl Jam rocks. I would pay for this lol .. ok I wouldn’t but still .. too much hate

I like Pearl Jam and it took me a few times to realize what was wrong with it

For real lol. It’s just a normal song, written in the same language as the Prisencolinensinenciusol song, lol

I’d love to hear the entire album remixed to this incredible level!


The grunts and whimpers had me laughing way harder than it should have. 🤣

🚫 But he failed to show enough of Eddie Vedder's ridiculously exaggerated on-stage facial expressions, which are designed to dupe his audience into thinking he's all "brooding and deep"(despite how obviously fake and contrived it looks).

I first pointed that out over 25 years ago, then last year i watched Bill Burr talk about talk about it in a comedy routine, and I finally felt vindicated! It's funny as hell.
https://youtu.be/ZX5KwUNgaCI

They should have added the sound of 100 gorillas mating towards the end. Lol.

It sounds the same as it did in the 90's to me. I never knew WTF they were saying anyways. Something about Jeremy's broken?

I'm too sick to laugh right now. It's hard to keep it down.


Props to the lady doing sign language, to decipher what he is saying and put it instantly into a different language is impressive

@lurifaks92 it's strange that we can't understand the fucking president of the United States.

@26AccountsRemoved what a strange thing to say

The crazy part is the fact there are no words in reality. The fact she can translate it means she might be the only person on earth who can tell us what Biden and Harris are saying

Why in this universe..someone deaf goes to a grunge show😅

She is a sign language interpreter for Eminem. That clip was taken from his concert while he was performing Rap God

@david derricottThat's exactly what she's doing too. Nobody ever understood the first word of any of these songs lol

@SuperStriker412there is literally no way it is not. Can you imagine the face on a signer that was unprepared tho? Like wtf am i supposed to do with this?

@Raps Calorie I can’t decide what’s more potentially injury prone. Metal deaf translators or rap translators. Both so HARD.

@Philip B. I'm not sure how translators at rap shows manage to not injure themselves lmfao

@Philip B. It looks like she is having a blast. I would be too, that concert looks awesome.

As someone who has worked with loads of live concert venues, sign language translators go crazy along with the artists to the point they are almost more entertaining then the artist themselves, its an art.

I know you’re making a joke but I imagine it was probably rehearsed beforehand

I laughed so hard at this kkkkkkkkkkkkkk

But since it’s Pearl Jam, she might be just waving her hands around maniacally.


90s kid, I love Pearl Jam,but this was still funny AF, and very accurate lol

@tonia-lynnkeller1970 That came on my Spotify radio and it unlocked the memory of this exact video. Still was vibing to it at work though.

That’s what I came to say! I LOVE Pearl Jam but there’s times that’s exactly what it sounds like! (Yellow Ledbetter anyone!) But I still love it !❤

We never knew what the Grunge bands were singing but we "jammed" anyways. 😅


As someone who has played live with Pearl Jam, this is actually very accurate.

As a drummer for Pearl Jam, this is exactly the sound the band was always striving for.

Are you related to Cottoneyejoe? Because if not for him, I would've been married a long time ago.

@raaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaAaaAAaaaaa The Weird Al version! "My baby's in love with Veddy Edder" lol

@Wesa Two Rivers And Pearl's Jam had the apostrophe, too much like Jane's Addiction, drop the apostrophe, plus Pearl is the name of the drum brand, so it all fits.

@The Runner D7Pearl is Eddie Vedder’s grandmother and she supposedly made jam with a special ingredient rumored to be LSD.

@ImTryingHere Interesting - just saw that Super  Tramp was called Mother and had to change it (conspiracy is that it needed that name for the now infamous 911 Breakfast in America cover!)thnx!

@Raw Olympia They used to be called Mookie Blaylock, after the basketball player.  But they had to change it for legal reasons and they came up with Pearl Jam.  So it wasn't their first choice.

@Raw Olympiawrong.. they were jamming.. and the drum name was pearl.. thus pearl jam..

@The Runner D7 I always thought they were referring to pearl necklaces.

It’s supposedly a psychedelic jam one of the members aunts made.

@RustyGuy Ya gotta ask Jim Morison, Mr. Mojo Risin!

@The Runner D7 that's why I never listened to them ever, this came up as I was hearing other bands, but it's cool, now I know what they sound like but all those Mr. Mojos are just too much.

@Raw Olympia Eew. Why the hell would you name your band that??

@The Runner D7 spermatoza ~ like Mick Jagger screaming I ain't got that much jam! (Some Girls)

@Raw Olympia To this day, I have no idea what it means.


Man, this is really good work. You did a great job creating a caricature and making it still flow perfectly.


As someone who is indifferent about Pearl Jam I can't hardly even tell that this isn't the way the real song actually goes.

Agreed! Indifference is the key. It’s not about liking or disliking.

You probably just need to hear it once to know it doesn't at all sound like this. I haven't listened to this song in probably 20 years and knew it was off

Stole my words, I couldn’t tell you if it is not the original, even if you offered me money.

Joke’s on you because this is how the song goes

@SgtSeth
I think the problem was that they kept the kids' name the same. They shouldn't have done that.
By the way, how did you work the term "autobio" into the discussion. Nobody said anything about it being an autobiography by Eddie Vedder.

As someone who used to listen to Pearl Jam, this is what Pearl Jam sounded like in my memories.

I know the band very little, but I assume this is Even Flow, their most famous song. Either an exact cut from the song or a cut that has been a little bit edited to exaggerate that song's segment.

Yep all of it sounds just like this one 😅

Actually, all he had to do is be a little selective with his sound choices. Pearl Jam is two bands in one. One is the alternative rock guitar band and the other is a sloppy, shouty garage band. I hate the later. Listen to the album Pearl Jam from 2006. Most hideous album ever. My favourite song of their's is from a collection album. Crazy Mary I think is the title of the song. I have to listen to it 3 times everytime I bother putting it on.

This is definitely the best Pearl Jam performance I have ever heard.

Go listen to breathe and see if you have a new found appreciation for his voice or the MTV acoustic sets.

@Heartwing because it litteraly is just the song skipping 5 seconds ahead this proves nothing.

because it basically is the song skipping. thats it. like this proves nothing.

@SgtSeth he took a real life tragedy that actually happened to someone's child and said to himself "i can make an edgy song about that" and proceeded to do so without asking or caring at all how it might make them feel. They had to see that music video played on mtv and vh1 50 times a day and all over the radio as well.  I mean think about that, think about how popular that song was and imagine if it were loosely based on your kid shooting himself at school but then had all this extra shit mixed in to make it sound like he was a lifelong headcase with a shit family.  Vedder is a prick through and through.

@Billy Cole I would say to you or anyone that took that song at face value, that there was no "claim" for it to be an autobio song. It was a song, not unlike any movie or show that happens to be loosely based on an actual event. For anyone to have believed it to be true to the letter was either looking for a quick buck, looking to make a name for themselves, or are looking for a reason to dislike Pearl Jam or Eddie Veddar. Regardless, it was an amazing song that evoked alot of feelings and was done amazingly by Pearl Jam.

41 Helens agree that this is indistinguishable from what Pearl Jam is supposed to sound like.

@SgtSeth what about Jeremy?  He completely embellished and made up that story about that kid's family life and school relationships to make a hit song that made him millions.  The mom and grandmother of that kid were completely blindsided by that song and have come out on record saying that he was not miserable at home, he was not ignored, he was loved deeply by his mother and grandparents and got along well with kids at school.  He just had a breakdown one day for unknown reasons and killed himself at school.  Richland Hills High in Texas.

And, as someone that loves Pearl Jam, I can tell you that you are missing the depth in Pearl Jam and Eddie Veddar's music. Veddar's voice alone is a reason to enjoy Pearl Jam, but the deeper meaning of his writings are also reasons to enjoy. Evenflow is the look into a homeless man's life. Pearl Jam shows not only is his life hard, but the hopelessness of each day and how pointless it is to a better future. The fact that looking to a future that is almost pointless, yet he continues to live is heroic in its own right. Which speaks to the resilience of such a person.

That wouldn’t make the worst t-shirt: Indifferent to Pearl Jam.

I guess, over the years, that’s what it balances out to. They’ve had some of the best drummers over the years. When I was young and first starting out behind a kit, Dave Abbruzzese was a big inspiration and influence. Made it really clear what could be done. Matt Cameron challenged me to push the time signature envelope in Soundgarden. Jack Irons challenged me to keep it simple and lay the foundation from the Chili Peppers. And Pearl Jam had all of them.

They have two stellar guitarists as well. So I really should love the band. But fuck if Eddie Vedder isn’t one of the most pretentious assholes in the biz. And so yeah, it balances out to a sort of indifference. Although I’m tempted to say fuck ‘em because they couldn’t do the same to Eddie.

lol! Right?! I am like “wait, what is he saying there?” Eddie Vedder actually sounds decent when he’s not acting like this on the stage. Like I saw him on Howard Stern and you could actually understand him. So…hmm. 🤔

Same here.

It gets annoying, when you have to listen a station playing their songs daily. Otherwise I don't really care

I want someone to do one of these videos and then just play the normal song.

@Jeff Allen same, i know this is not how the song goes, but i wouldnt mind it either

@Jamie Rain - Redflufflykins It's nit an impression, that is Eddie Vedder's voice, they've edited the verses of the song even flow together.

I was thinking it was a bad live performance or something. It’s a great impression.

@Alex Dramarco it's not a song rip. The song he is parodying is called "even flow" by pearl jam and this video matches up with the song starting at 1:28 in the song.

I kinda like Pearl Jam and this just sounds like them.

Every time I say I don't like a band bc I've heard it too much on the radio I regret it. I remember our local alternative rock station would play them all the time and I didn't like them but hearing it after the station shut down just hits different. Didn't appreciate what I had when I had it :( I miss hearing Pearl Jam <3

@Scottydon't pearl jam was great when they released ten but after that, the music has been downhill and underwhelming. And this is from someone who was a massive Pearl Jam fan.

@OP:<br>I was like that with Monster Magnet and Static-X. Both of them, I didn't like when I was young and they first came out. Now, I'm able to appreciate how skilled and passionate they are.

@OP:

Do you really miss Pearl Jam or do you miss your station? The same can be said about MTV. I don't miss Pearl Jam videos but I do miss MTV just before they started playing them.

@Scottydon't Really? The lead vocalist has awful diction. It sounds like he's forgotten his words. I don't understand the appeal of this song.

You mention John Lennon as one of the very best ever...there goes a big part of your credibility. One of the most overrated musicians ever. There have been far better musicians who remain less heralded.

I'm fed up with people who don't know the difference between "my favourite musician" and "best of all time!" Such people sound ludicrous. Why can't you just enjoy music, instead of making everything a pissing contest?

I had to look up who the fuck Chris Cornell was.

Oh, you call me ignorant? Without going to a search engine or musical encyclopaedia, match each of these lead singers to his respective group: Larry Blackmon, Charlie Wilson, Levi Stubbs and Roger Troutman. Can you name them all? Can you name even one?

Yeah, never mind the multitude of other musical styles that exist. Never mind the classical musicians who didn't have recording technology, who could keep entire elaborate musical compositions upstairs. Those folks were just hacks, right?

Never mind musicians who work outside the Anglosphere. The best musicians always sing in English, right?

Singers who write their own songs are not that rare. Some of them even produce their own albums. It's not really that big of a deal.

So, you need to get real, not everyone lives inside a hard rock vacuum. If you like it, fine, but you sound like a demented man desperate to prove that your taste is so much better than what everyone else likes. You must be big fun at parties.

Yuck. I grew up in the 80s, 90s, have an appreciation for music from that era and STILL don't like pj. Totally overrated. Lead singer needs to learn words. and melodies. This satirical vid was closer to the real thing than satire. PEARL JAM, LEARN HOW TO PRONOUNCE WORDS FFS!!

You’re listening to the wrong stations then. I like Pearl Jam, but they’re STILL overplayed on the radio.

Pearl jam is one of the greatest bands of all time!!! There's a reason they were on the radio so much. And I agree....some of their songs were definitely played out. But as a true Pearl jam fan, I know they have lots and lots of other great songs that weren't played out. For instance "Garden", "Dissident", "Nothingman", "Elderly woman behind a counter in a small town", "Corduroy", "Once", "Animal", "State of love and trust", "Last kiss", "Immortality"...which is one of my personal favorites..."Just breathe"...which is another of my personal favorites...I could go on and on. Eddie Vedder is one of the greatest song writers and performers that has ever lived! Right up there with John Lennon, Willie Nelson, and last but definitely not least The incredibly talented...and in my opinion...the greatest musician of all time. CHRIS CORNELL!!! When you're talking about all around talent...nobody even comes close. Well maybe Eddie Vedder...but nobody else!!! Chris had one of the greatest voices in music period, not just rock. He was an amazing song writer and composer. He didn't just write lyrics, he composed pretty much every song he ever wrote. He was a great guitarist, and not many people know this but he is was also a great drummer, piano player, bassist, harmonica player, and mandolin player. And probably played other instruments that I'm not aware of. You or anyone else can't name another artist with more ALL AROUND talent. Sorry, didn't mean to change the discussion to be about Chris Cornell...but every music discussion should be about Chris Cornell lol. And you don't have to miss pearl jam...they're music is everywhere!!!


As a long time Pearl Jam fan. I wish this version was on the original album. Love the extra grunting and whimpers.


As a fan of pearl jam this is one of my favorite versions of this song. Vedder sounds amazing live ❤


Still sounds better than a lot of music tbh :)


as someone who doesn't know what Pearl Jam is but then heard this and was like "oh - THAT band," I can say this is 100% accurate.

@Vincent Perschau Jr. I thought it was jizz.

@Mad Scientific Sorry. I thought I was replying to someone else.

@Jeremy Main Same. Sir Edwardo Vedderick there didn't have a working mouth however. 🤷♂

@Jeremy Main I guess dawg. I gotta take your word for it. Clearly you have a working translator. I couldn't make heads or tails of most of it 🤷♂

@Mad Scientific It's a song about someone who has no control over their life and who can't figure out how to fix it, either because he's too dumb or too misguided, it's not clear. He ends up chasing answers away and ends up with nothing but misery. It's all just an even flow of sh*t.

We weren't little psychopaths to each other. We understood how bad life could be and we were trying to support each other.

Evenflow is the name of the song. It's good. Honestly.

this. i am laughing so hard  i remember while growing up, my friends liking pearl jam but i don't remember any of their songs and then i played this and i thought the same thing! ohh.... that band!!! the accuracy!

Anything that sounds as ridiculous as Vedder...

@Tedley Reynolds why are you watching it then?


Fun fact. If you're just listening to this in the background, you may not even notice the difference -- at least until the slide whistle kicks in. 😄


The sound effect at the end really takes this piece of art to the next level. Magnificent.


Could you release an entire album of this?  It is the album I never knew I needed.


As an 11 year old when that song came out, this is how I heard it. Now I love it more than ever 😅


The fact that he does it so well is what makes it so good.


You didn't ruin it.  You distilled it to its essence.  This is like a shot of everclear for your 90s nostalgia.

@Torgo1969 Pearl Jam is awful. Ten was brilliant and the rest was meh. This review pretty much distilled what the band has become: "Pearl Jam on record have essentially been reduced to the rock ‘n’ roll version of wearing sweatpants: they’ve given up trying to impress anyone, so they may as well be comfortable."

"Just about the entire early 90s period turns me off these days." Nah, Alice in Chains are still amazing.

As someone who hates Pearl Jam and drank Everclear, well said 😂

@Adam Jenkins I’ve never heard them referred to as Pearl Jizzle. I’m stealing that lmao

@SirActionSlacks speaking of everclear they don’t sound much different

Fan-tas-tic!  Comment of the week for me!

@JustinSane 11 not even close to the same thing, woke is anti white

@Zachery Smith He stumbles and he falls down then does it again. Why won't he ever learn?

yeah, second that. i enjoy that. shit. times were better back then when we was young

everclear and Pearl Jam are my two favorite 90s bands

@JustinSane 11 Not True. The 60s were so anti-war that the cia tried to change the culture to stop all the peace and love. Nowadays if you are against war in Russia/Ukraine you are called a Putin-lover for not supporting Ukraine exclusively...... there is a big difference

@Aλpha the woke agenda?  You mean like what every hippie song from the 70s and 80s was about unless they were just about getting stoned or laid?  Or how about punk rock from the 90s who’s basic message was down with America and the government? It may be a different kind of woke but as someone that listens to all rock music except for country ( I like some rockabilly and real country like Johnny Cash) from the 60s through the time periods and popular bands associated with those bands to still listening to it today. There is no difference. They talk about being gay more. And the music just plain isn’t as good. That’s it

I remember the '90s fondly but 90s rock sucked

This still sounds better than most woke-agenda music today

The woke-agenda is literally trying to destroy the US from 10 different angles

Democrats help flood the US with Fentanyl, fueling the homeless crisis and OD deaths (now the #1 leading cause of death for people 18-45)

The trans agenda is aimed at reducing the amount of patriotic strong men, simultaneously trying to demonize Christians for having an opinion against child sex changes

Please spread the word, post this on a tree around town.... this isn't hate speech, it is True and protected by 1st Amendment

@Josh112096 my whole college life involves doing just that but with vodka. I wasn’t trying to kill myself just get through day after day on a bender nobody else knew about. It works wonders. The old stoplight.

Green means go so  lime or whatever green flavors they had to start the day

Yellow means slow down so lemon was next

And red means it’s time to stop. So fruit punch or cherry…. Before you know it. Another day of college in the books.

Another school day in the books not an entire night and day so that’s when the real alcohol would come out. Lol

@Adam Jenkins having a black girlfriend?

The deadliest drink combo is Everclear and any Gatorade of your choice. It's scary how you can't even taste the Everclear trust and believe you won't be disappointed lol

@XVI PHO ENIX everclear has always been annoying to me. Almost every song is about the same thing really.

F**kin right. They didn't ruin it. They enhanced it. Gave ol' pearl jizzle a boost

@Jack Straw Sounds like you grew up. Lol. Jp

OMG I so forgot about Everclear. I loved them and haven't listened for awhile. Thank You.

Everclear?  "Bada bing black boots on an old shoe face.  I gotta find myself a new taste..."  what it sounds like when you don't like Everclear

@Stefanie B and that "Oh yeahhhh" part from father of mines and everything else.

Now you don't have to listen to the whole awful song.

ever clear was AWEFUL - except heroin girl - that song rocked

I understand your meaning. Everclear as the purified alcohol meaning this Pearl Jam mashup was distilled down to a high potency shot. I agree this didn't ruin it.

@SirActionSlacks our impression of Everclear when we were kids was " no...! Yea-yuh! No....! Yeah-yuh..<br>!" 😅

@SirActionSlacks our impression of Everclear when we were kids was " no...! Yea-yuh! No....! Yeah-yuh..
!" 😅

I remember Everclear as the band that utterly stole the line "the hand you hold is the hand that holds you down" from Pearl Jam. Disgusting. Just about the entire early 90s period turns me off these days.

@SirActionSlacks He can't be everything to everyone ....

Too bad he didn’t do this with Everclear.


😂.. as a lifelong fan who bought every album as they came out; i have no issue with this either. You can:t ruin it.. its just too dam good 😝


I was a teenager when these guys broke. I went to Lolapalooza 2 when I was 16 (on acid... of course 😉) and had one of the best and for about an hour or so when I lost my friends and thought I was gonna be ALONE. For 12 more hours,... terrifying times of my entire life.

Now, after my life's story, THIS, this video...  is pure art! 🤣🤣🤣 I laughed through the entire thing. If people get offended by this they really need to get a life. Even Pearl Jam themselves would die laughing at this. Well done. 👍


This is their new single. Can't wait for the entire album!

you just did, every song will sound like this


I almost made the mistake of drinking diet cola just a few seconds before the slide whistle.  Even though I've seen this video a few times now, that perfectly timed slide whistle matching up with Eddie Vedder's movement still gets me!


You  need to make an entire song like this. Love Pearl Jam, but 100% agree with the sound of what other people hear. Reminds of what Yellow Leadbetter, misheard lyrics.


The fact that this video has united people who like & dislike Pearl Jam is beautiful

He had me at "freeeezin...(something something something)...concrete."

Tis the most fascinating... thing. I don't remember too much olde English.

Anyway, it's amazing how the same thing can be a plus, minus, or inconsequential depending on the person.

The_Jaguar_ Knight we all have the chance to edit our typos.... Android text interface is horrible anyways, and their autocorrect is like old McDonald's Farm in a newspaper better days even though they don't know to read... EEE iii Ooo...🎵

OP deserves to be the next president. They're the hero we need.


ive never heard a single pearl jam song in my life and now i dont think i need to bc it's too great and i don't want to be disappointed

Check out a song called Yellow Ledbetter. I promise that a minimal amount of the lyrics will be in an intelligible human language.

I feel the same way about Breaking Bad after hearing that one iconic music remix


I haven't heard this song in forever and i just sung right along with it like i listened to it every day for the last three weeks 😂 word for word!


This is perfect! That's exactly how I hear Pearl Jam in my head every time I think about them. To me the vocals sound more like drunk rambling than singing.


I couldn’t understand them as a kid but still loved them. They rock!!


Everyone's talking about the slide whistle, but that completely out-of-nowhere 'HRNGH' in the middle of his babbling at 0:27 is a thing of beauty.

0:28 - 0:36 sounds like the poor guy is gonna explode

I was nervous there. I thought he was slipping on a bannana.

@Ethan Wthat moan cracks me up everytime.

That's what made me laugh the most. I was like how is that even possible?

Yeah, that's pretty sweet.  I like "unh uh ngh..... again."

@LadyScarface Angel I seriously had to watch this like 30 times the first time I saw it before I could stop crying from laughing so hard. I still watch it occasionally, and yes it is even funnier when you're high 🤣

@Ethan W <br>That part has me laughing the loudest! I love to smoke a bowl & watch this first thing in the morning. Makes my whole day go right! 🤣

@Ethan W
That part has me laughing the loudest! I love to smoke a bowl & watch this first thing in the morning. Makes my whole day go right! 🤣

Yes, and at 0:31 with the little moan snippet taken from Once 🤣🤣


The musical talent in your work combined with the original ideas + riotous execution make you some kind of polymath bro, keep up the fn hilarious work!


Here is the thing, I grew up listening to Pearl Jam. This is exactly what they sound like regardless of if you like them or not.


I love Pearl Jam and if they recorded this version I would probably enjoy


😂 The slide whistle will never not crack me up!


I'm crying, this is so funny. As someone who graduated high school in 1993, I find this hilarious. AI and comedy are amazing together.

This is just isolated vocals from rock band, no AI involved here


When I was a drunk college student in the 90s, I may have sung it exactly like this. 👍😄

@Ricardo666I 100 percent sing it like this to this day 😎


Please make more of this series! This is pretty good. Better than the original.


This is pure gold mate, honestly not sure if you ruined it or created a masterpiece but either way, thanks for the laugh!!!   (from a huge PJ fan as so many other comments are. lol)


i was not a fan, but can't deny that vedder is talented and unique. i was kind of a fan of chris' voice more than eddie's. chris' voice is one of the top five best rock voices, imho


I love Pearl Jam, and honestly, this is still accurate.


Honestly as someone who loves this song so much they cried the last time it played on the radio after not hearing it for a long time

That’s exactly how Pearl Jam sounds to me lol


As someone who does not like Pearl Jam, I can verify this is 100% accurate.

@Southern Oregon Cat Mom i used to call them Squirrel Jam.

If you dont like pj but you like grunge i highly recommend pj albums vs and vitalogy, sooo different that the commercial stuff from "ten"

I'm with you brother, but it's the evolution of the sound and the men involved that keeps the real fans tuned in :)

I was gonna say, it sounds the exact same, then I was like, wait

The verification symbol itself verified it's own opinion!

seriously what next some dude sings about how he doesn't like to be called daughter...how high are these guy's.

Adam Sandler in his SNL days did a hilarious Eddie impression

What I hate the most (and I saw them live opening for Nirvana, when he kept climbing on those stupid stage sets and did the same fkg thing in every fkg town, cuz we met Kurt and got free tickets, sans air), is how goddamned fkg endless their fkg songs are on the radio- and I hate the fkg radio— I’ll be checking back like fifty fkg times “it has GOT to be TFOVER by NOW, right?”=> ”… RIGHT?” => “… RIIIGHHT!?!?”=> “OH COME TFON WITFFF!!!!!” — just infuriating dogshit. Love Green River though— for all you gahey Jizz Jam fans, that’s the same guitarist and Mark Arm from Mudhoney, bhitch. [and only a billion times better than your corporate fagrock)

@Chuck Ficago Any relatives of Huck Fuston, or Luck Floss Fackangeles? (the second one actually gave me a turn, but it sounded best, despite the unorthodoxy).

@Secret Agent I keep forgetting my YouTube is fucked up. I just see everyone's email address instead of user name

@Washburn Switch the Ch with F in Chuck Ficago. 😂

Hell I like pearl jam and it sounds like this to me

Eddie vedder has the strangest use of pronouncing words it's near unlistenable

As someone who actually understands what he is saying, i also can verify.

As someone who DOES like Pearl Jam...this is 100% accurate

YES THIS IS SO TRUE 😂 I don't like Pearl Jam at ALL except for that song Jeremy. Now that song's a bop imo

As some one who loves pearl jam I can verify that this is 100% accurate as well

omg this is EXACTLY how pear jam sounds to me!

Gramma lamma ding dong pillow made of conrete...                Yeah.

no its not and I don't like Pearl Jam. Too much "ehbahdebaskebba" Pearl Jam is just "AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH kin-BEHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH UHN DEHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH BAH-DEH!" Kinda like a more retarded version of Lynard Skynard free bird "ifah leeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee hee-ah t-mawwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwroh"

It was still not enough of that Eddie urrrr voice tone though, could have been more of that imo.

@Secret Agent You should meet my cousin, Buck Foston.


Despite owning the album and listening to it hundreds of times, I still couldn’t tell the difference between your version and theirs!🤣


Brings back memories of staying up all night at house parties, freezing as the drugs and alcohol wear off.


As someone who listened to all Pearl Jam albums, I actually like this and wish it was a real song😂


Pearl Jam is one of the most iconic grunge bands and the way Eddie Vedder sings is very unique


As someone who likes Pearl Jam<br>This has some serious flow lol

As someone who likes Pearl Jam
This has some serious flow lol


As a massive Pearl Jam fan, I can honestly say I completely sympathize with those who are not (and this was damn funny).

I respect what pearl jam accomplished. With that said, they just suck.

@Mike Scott Now this I can get on board with.

@Sir Fizz  I dislike Pearl Jam as a band less than the fact they spawned some of the worst 90s bands and cliches that looked to emulate them.. I hate the dozens of clones looking to copy that "sound" bit more than Eddie himself.

@Hijodeganas1  was gonna poop all over pearl jam, but you're too kind, dude.

I dislike Pearl Jam a lot. I find it awful.

As someone who REALLY didn't like them and couldn't get away from them (that's always the hard part), I appreciate you magnanimity.

Me with Smashing Pumpkins. Really like them (most of their stuff, anyway), REALLY don’t blame anyone for hating them.

i tried to love pearl jam, i have album VS, its sound strange, its like you are screaming angry and stopped for next two second after you start scream.

At one point, when I had a driving job, my favourite radio station played them so often, that I started "singing along" in a sarcastic, overly hammy, derpy voice. Mainly to keep it from becoming an ear worm, but also for mockery. My wife used to find it both infuriating and hilarious, when I started doing it at home too.

Never knew I liked Pearl Jam til I heard this 😂

Even for those of us who love Eddie's singing, if we're being real and honest it's not hard to understand why lots of people hate his vocal style. Personally i think that he's the only one who pulled it off, and the way i feel about the vocalists to follow who emulated his technique is basically how some folks feel about his vocals

@LordBowler I can appreciate it brother!  It's all good.

I'm pretty sure there's a good band up on stage with that guy who keeps rambling over the music.

Edit: Meant in good fun.  Like what you like, brother.


I’m a fan, so it’s still sounds great to me!<br>I listened again, and honestly it sound’s better than the original.

I’m a fan, so it’s still sounds great to me!
I listened again, and honestly it sound’s better than the original.


I know I’m not alone in this, but the reason I enjoy songs and bands I can’t understand is making up my own lyrics.


Lmfao I love that Eddie starts dancing and thrashing right when the song is ending 😂


I saw Pearl Jam live in 2009. It was such a great show


Anytime I ever think of Pearl Jam, this specific vocal line comes to mind. "Freeze and mano mano mano mano mano made of concrete. Oh yeah."

@Deborah Cooney thoughts arrive like butterflies. Oh he don't know, so he chases them away. Someday yet he'll begin his life again, life again, life agaaaaain

@CasperInkyMagoo that is so perfect. 😆 I'm dying over here.

You just made me realize that despite having heard this song many hundreds of times I have no idea what the hell he is saying 😳

@Buffalosabskis My mom thought Aerosmith's song included the line "Everybody's got a Tuesday night buffet."

"rests his head on a pillow made of concrete."

"rests his head on a pillow made of concrete."

He says “looking through the paper though he doesn’t know to read”

"she cries and says she's a lesbian. Can't find the Butter Man"

Thanks for the comments.  Some are pretty damn funny.

I was gonna translate as well. But figure I'd read all the comments. But I'll toss this out there. I never really wanted to know all the words to this one. It takes away from the mystery.

@Nunya Bidness vomit emoji for a guy kissing another guy eh? showin that ass out here in the comments

@BlkWinds
Jeremys foreskin YEEESSSTER DAYYYYY
eeeep eeeep eeeep

@Nunya Bidness He did that, on a porpoise. It’s called “phonetic ambiguity”.

I haven't laughed at a comment like this in so long. Ty

@Jon Gilbertson "Thoughts arrive like butterfles/Oh he don't know, so he chases them away"  Translation: muthafukka be crayzay

@Buffalosabskis Any era of music has examples of that... famously Jimi Hendrix is often misheard as singing " 'scuse me, while I kiss this guy " 😘🤮

@Nunya Bidness I thought Bush was saying “Mushy Head” when I was growing up haha. I was like why does he have a mushy head?

cheese and mayo made of concrete,  ohhhh yeah

You can just replace every word and syllable with "Yeeawh" and it still doesnt sound any different to me.

Hahaha I always have a "Wooooo Hoo WHOOOOOOOOOAAAA LOOKIN THOUGH HE DOSENT KNOW TO READ IT.......yeeaaahhh."

@A. Rod I never understood more than two words of Led Zeppelin either, but I never cared & they're still the greatest band ever.

"Crinky trundout luv
Grooby leather kiks

-Trampled Underfoot, "Physical Graffiti" Led Zeppelin

I could never understand what the hell he or Kurt Cobain were ever singing. 🤣

Freezin', rests his head on a pillow made of concrete. Oh yeah.

Rest his head on a pillow made of concrete yeah.

Rest his head on a pillow made of concrete yeah.

"rests his head on a pillow made of concrete" it aint that hard....

@Timothy A As someone who has trouble sleeping, I do admit Pearl Jam are very talented in helping in that way.

Music is in the ear of the suspect. One can't deny talent.<br>Though sometimes it takes a lyric print out 😂

The line that I always remember is “Jeremy’s foreskin, aaaahhhh yeaahhh”.

For me the first thing I ever think of is their non-musical appearance as the members of "Citizen Dick" in Singles

It’s sentimental mayo made of concrete. Have some respect for the artist.


Wow, this actually sounds good and I LOVE Pearl Jam!! Especially pre 1996 PJ


First time I listened I heard something like this, then trying again I slowly appreciate them till considering them one of the best band ever.


I couldn't stop rewatching the last 10 seconds. I think it got funnier every time 😂


I love Pearl Jam but this had me in tears 😭 😂


I laughed so hard at the grunts towards the end. It’s true but they are still one of the greatest bands of all time. And the only big Seattle band from the 90’s that’s still doing their thing. Come to think of it, Eddie Vedder is the only lead singer that’s still alive…sad.


It’s just… so… GENIUS!  Seriously you good mixing, bro.  I laugh EVERY time I see this…😂


I'm a huge Pearl Jam fan, this video still had me laughing for hours after I watched it. Well done.

@Rich Dean I know the name, but I don't think I've ever heard their music before. Sounds like the name of some hipster band so yeah, I'd probably hate it.

@Secret Agent there are actually humans that like Morrissey. They actually really like it. Can we both agree how hard that sucks?

@Secret Agent Wow! PJ is honestly top ten but yeah I’ve listened for so long, kinda burnt. I not only don’t like I kinda hate REM. That’s what makes the world go round right👍

@Rich Dean I'm not for them nor an I against them. A few songs I like or think are ok, but if I had to choose between listening to REM and Pearl Jam, oh God, I'd rather listen to REM then! Listening to Pearl Jam is torture! 😖😣😩😫😭

@Secret Agent I’m gonna bet you like REM… right?

For hours huh? I probably won't even remember this video 5 mins from now.

@Chelsea GreeneIn the last five days since I discovered this video I randomly grab my phone and play it a few times every day. It gets funnier every time 🤣

@Martin Kirik I don't how I could ever start liking pearl jam. They were like the nickelback of the 90's.

@Secret Agent I like Pearl jam, but I remember not liking pearl jam and it was 100% like this.

I think I’ve watched it 20 times in 2 days <br>Agaaaain!

I think I’ve watched it 20 times in 2 days
Agaaaain!

I didn't disrespect them, I just expressed my opinion of their music. Not liking a band doesn't mean you're disrespecting them.

@Secret Agent you don't deserve hearing. I hope a deaf person can do a karmic switcheroo with you

yeah this was hilarious! hahahahaha lmao

Me too man, Pearl Jam are awesome, still found it funny


I could never understand it when I was a kid and all my mates were getting into it. Still can’t now but that’s art. Some you get , some you don’t.


As someone who loves Pearl Jam, this is a contender for the best thing ever.


The clown whistle at the end never fails to make me laugh


It's still bad ass. You can't ruin pearl jam, infact I'm going to workout to a playlist of them right now.


I love Pearl Jam and this is exactly what they sound like.

Lungho Bob Dylan is much better than you'd think if you remove the same extremely nasal bleeting sheep sound.

😂😂🤙🏾 so true. I had to read the lyrics on so many of their songs!

@Kurdt Good man.  We can still be friends.

@Kurdt That's cool.  We all have our unique tastes. <br>Did you like it better than Ten?

@Kurdt That's cool.  We all have our unique tastes.
Did you like it better than Ten?

@1SqueakyWheel I really like VS. I wasnt alive when it came out tho

@Kurdt it was okay at best.  I bought it when it first released, and I guess my hopes were too high. It was the last album of theirs I ever bought.

@1SqueakyWheel to be honest, “VS.” is a great album too

DMK666 Yes!  Ten was a great album.  Far and away their best one ever.  The rest of their albums just kinda sucked, and it was hard to care.  But then again, this change was perfectly timed with the advent of Vedder sociopolitically sliding up his own ass, so there's that.

It's a profound demonstration of how a band who reaches great success through the effort of trying hard, transitions into coasting and artistic laziness as they almost immediately sit on their laurels the moment after they suddenly make it really big, and just concentrate on churning out the same similar crap which they believe formulaically follows the recipe of their most successful breakthrough material, even though the underscoring spirit just isn't there, often missing the point entirely.

I've always theorized this at least partially explained a good portion of one hit wonders.

Fortunately for Eddie and the Jam, they managed to make it so huge with a whole first album that was seemingly made of gold lightening with smash hits like Black, Jeremy and Alive, that they have been able to coast for 30 years. Not many groups can do that, so props to them!

It also helped, I suppose, that they were one of the top two most iconic bands in the scene when the Seattle Grunge sound first broke out, topped only by Nirvana.  That obviously counts, heh!

I still can't believe they cut this version of Even Flow from the album. A big mistake on their part

I wish they still sounded like that to be honest...

lol, always hated them and yeah, that´s exactly what they sound like.


That’s hilarious, as a longtime fan.  I embrace all versions of this song 😊


OMG... this is what I heard when I first listened to PJ. I desperately wanted to know the words to sing along.  So I just felt the music & the "HRNGH"!! Then, after listening to my husband sing PJ karaoke,  I loved the songs even more! <br>This video is hilarous!!

One of the all-time great rock bands. But some people just have their Hang-Ups and they're stickin to 'em.

@Jasper Chance Nonsense. At least, if you're talking about there better material. The first three albums, specifically. Their early stuff was great.

c'mon, really just below average and if you can't tell, well, sorry


There is music that is timeless, and then there is grunge rock.


The damn whistle!!! This is better than the first version! Bravo!!!!!


As a huge fan of Pearl Jam, I can verify this is exactly how their music sounds to me.

is it really Even Flow if you can’t decipher half the things Eddie is saying?


As someone who is a huge fan, this is so accurate 😂


As someone who started from Guitar Hero 3: Legends of Rock. <br>I can't stop listening to this! Seriously it just works! Kudos.

Can you make more of these kinda videos?!  This was golden!


As someone who loves Pearl Jam with every bone in his body, I honestly laughed my a** off 🤣


I love Pearl Jam and this is pretty spot on.


I need a whole series of 'what it sounds like to people who don't like it' for all my favorite bands.

Do Tool! Gonna be a lot of random drum lines with Keenan nasally moaning..

Late to the comment chain but a guy called Bradley Hall has a pretty spot-on video like that. Go check it out!

@Brian Ciofani Metallica would be just James saying "Yeah" for 2-4 minutes tbf

Metallica. Ed Sheeran. Post Malone. That would be fun.

Not exactly the same, but this guy has a whole playlist of "songs by famous bands but written by a bot" (my favorite is tbe Metallica one): https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLoIUp-A8EDmrY0cJzEkioaeE0HEJCzjoX

Agreed they need to do basically any TOOL song

100% agree. We must have this. Loved it.


For decades I could never hear the attraction of Pearl Jam.  I just found it.


I love Pearl Jam and they still sound like this to me lol.


It would be so cool if he really went off like that , ramp up the fast singing and knarling 1000% Eddie!!!!


You got to love Pearl Jam. Still rocking it out.


As a Pearl Jam fan since '92 this is funny. Well played.


Dude every part of this thing has me rolling. I love the way Eddie’s still spazzing out after the song is obviously over, and then the perfectly timed clown whistle. This is great stuff.

There are two kinds of rock singers- bellowers and screamers.


I was on the ground for the debut of grunge, exactly the Gen X demographic that record labels were looking to sell CDs to. I detested virtually all of it. STP, PJ, N, AIC, etc. This video accurately reproduces about seven years of radio listening experience for me.

THANKS FOR THE TRAUMA REMINDER!


I laughed throughout this video, but then the slide whistle at the end just about DESTROYED me! Oh my gosh!


That third line where his energy amps up just to go into a series of grunts and whimpers has me rolling.


Never heard Pearl Jam much, but this sounds unironically good!


I was getting more and more anxious as I waited for the slide whistle and, sure enough, there it was right at the end. You did not disappoint.

seattle bands like mudhoney and fugazi were jumping off in 1990, but everyone likes this guy who sings like a cow.<br>fcku me i'm sick

seattle bands like mudhoney and fugazi were jumping off in 1990, but everyone likes this guy who sings like a cow.
fcku me i'm sick

This still sounds better than most woke-agenda music today
The woke-agenda is literally trying to destroy the US from 10 different angles

Democrats help flood the US with Fentanyl, fueling the homeless crisis and OD deaths (now the #1 leading cause of death for people 18-45)

The trans agenda is aimed at reducing the amount of patriotic strong men, simultaneously trying to demonize Christians for having an opinion against child sex changes

Please spread the word, post this on a tree around town.... this isn't hate speech, it is True and protected by 1st Amendment

I like Pearl Jam so I guess I just completely phase the slide whistle out.


As someone who bailed out of rock and its offshouts just after the Vietnam War ended, now I can say I finally heard Pearl Jam, unless this was entirely a spoof.<br>But hey, every generation has a right to their own music.

As a Pearl Jam fan I can say this is 😎👍 still great.


As someone who grew tired of people saying "if you like alice in chains you will find pearl jam amazing!" I can confirm this is 100% accurate.

Alice in Chains, Sound Garden and The Screaming trees are my favourites by far.<br>Have heard some live Pear Jam I thought was brilliant though. Pink Pop and MSG where epic concerts.

@James Mccarthy i posted a comment on a pearl jam reaction video that they peaked with 'ten".  you would have thought i called someone's grandma a filthy whore.

@Glenn Davis There's a few songs where you'd be surprised how much they sound similar. PJ and STP also have some songs that sound very similar.

ɑʟpʜɑ ɱɑсʜɪиɑ

@Michael A I can't go with "awful". Sour, dark, a bit twisted... Sure. Awful no... One of the tighter sounding bands of their day at the very least... Well mixed...

Naa there are groups that fit under awful... AIC isn't one of em 🤷♂

In order. Sound Garden, Alice in Chains, Collective soul and then maybe Squirrel Jam. But that's a handful of 90's bands. Definitely not an overall.

@Mad Scientific What? It's awful. I liked it as a kid though.

Fuck no lol 🤦♂

They are not even on the same planet.

Fuck no lol 🤦♂

They are not even on the same planet.

Alice in chains is a billion times better than Pearl Jam.

It requires a lobotomy to like Pearl Jam more than AIC......

@daryl foster Because you only know 10 bands

@daryl foster Because you only know 10 bands

Alice in Chains doesn't sound anything like Pearl Jam

@Mia JC STP, AIC, and sound garden are my top three. Nirvana and pearl jam overrated imo.

They are both terrible bands for clueless idiots with no taste, sneaking amongst a bunch of amazing bands.

@Mathew Steele That can't be. I don't see how his voice sounds any better in Jeremy then the rest of their songs. I think you just need to listen to more Pearl Jam.

@The Runner D7 Oh I wasn't saying it's their best, just the only one I like and the only one where Vedder's voice doesn't annoy me.

@Mathew Steele Dude, what are you talkin about??? That's nowhere near their best song.

I love Alice in Chains and the only song by Pearl Jam I can stand is Jeremy.

They're both awesome bands, but entirely different styles. Who the hell would say they're like???

Ah, people arguing over something subjective! Priceless! 😂

Give me aic anyday over pj ..even silverchair rocks over pj

not a fan of either personally, but I'd listen to PJ over AIC if given the choice

@Mollikar I agree. I liked pearl jam early on. After their 3rd album they made a lot of bad, boring music. Layne Staley has a much better sounding voice. I can't stand pearl jam these days

NOT true I loved Alice in Chains but didnt like Pearl Jam, Layne has vocal range.

@soupalex why? <br>beside Vedder pronunciation, PJ has great sound. well maybe not as hard or complex as SG. but still great IMO.

@soupalex why?
beside Vedder pronunciation, PJ has great sound. well maybe not as hard or complex as SG. but still great IMO.

@Xanthro2 people who like pearl jam usually have girlfriends who are more manly than they are. Hahahaha.

@Amin Muhammad how could you ever compare soundgarden to… <i>pearl jam?</i>

@Amin Muhammad how could you ever compare soundgarden to… _pearl jam?_

@Xanthro2 pearl jam is overrated and very mesiocre

@Xanthro2 pearl jam is overrated and very mesiocre

Anyone putting AIC in the same group of music with pearl jam needs to be hit... Hard...

Alice In Chains:Pearl Jam=chocolate:shit

That’s a dumb comparison, they sound nothing alike

I like Pearl Jam but AIC blows them out of the water

I like Pearl Jam but AIC blows them out of the water

No way, AIC and PJ are nothing alike. Whoever coined that statement is absolutely outta their fkn mind! I'm an AIC fan but not so much into PJ.

AIC is my fav band of all time pearl jam i dlslike quite a bit

@Mia JCSoundgarden* and Stone Temple Pilots 👌🏻

@Mia JCSoundgarden* and Stone Temple Pilots 👌🏻

@Alan Bernard same,<br>I’m more of a Alice In Chains type.

@Alan Bernard same,
I’m more of a Alice In Chains type.

@Amin Muhammad everyone’s wrong… Stone Temple Pilots is the best 😂

@Alan Bernard both are amazing, but for me soundgarden is the best

Alice in Chains is better than Pearl Jam tho. For me personally, anyway. I'm a fan of both.


As someone who loves Pearl Jam, I find this absolutely hilarious.


I love Pearl Jam and I know that each of their concerts is unique but but I'm just curious, what other bands (or singers) don't play the exact same setlist on the whole tour? Of course I'm not talking about one song (ex. some cover).


As someone who loves Pearl Jam- this shit goes hard


This is a riot! Now I know what my husband hears. Well done. 🙌🏻


I LOVE Pearl Jam and this is absolutely hilarious!😂🤣😂🤣Great work!


“Yellow Ledbetter” sounds EXACTLY the same to those of us who love Pearl Jam and those who don’t

Hahaha, I play that song on guitar a lot, and know almost all their 90s albums' lyrics by heart, but in "Yellow Ledbetter" I only understand "am I boxer or a bag" bit :)

I LOVE Yellow Ledbetter!The meaning behind the song is what makes it so good!

That song sounds to me like "onnaseeyeharghawaglaglehglehgehglehoooyamidonadonaeeehyaaaayCanYouSeeThemyaaaaaayglibglib" on repeat

Was just listening to it on the radio today and though to myself, "this is the most unintelligible song I have ever heard."<br>Glad to know I am not alone. Love it anyway cause the feeling gets across anyhow.

Glad to know I am not alone. Love it anyway cause the feeling gets across anyhow.

Never  knew the name of the tune.  But the title sounds just as dumb as the song.

Yellow… man I was gonna say the same thing 🤦🏼♂🤦🏼♂🤦🏼♂🤦🏼♂😛

Dude I so agree I tell ppl the same shit all the time but it was one of the most played on radio so everyone know that song

Pearl Jam: "Here's a song that wasn't good enough to make our album, but we hope die-hard fans appreciate it." Early 90s FM radio: "MOAR PERL JAAAAAM!!!!!!"

@Jason Lefler I recently played it on a pub juke box and a group of guys at a nearby table liked it so much (never heard it before) that they kept re-playing it.

@NoBrakes23 Something along the lines of it being about his brother(?) being killed in a war and he was scared to read it....something like that

We refer to that song as 'Yellow Bedwetter'.

When I discovered the lyrics were, "Unsealed, on a porch, a letter sat," I was like WTF?

@Jason Lefler its not a really bad song, its just very hendrixy instrumentally with ultra 90s style vocals

YL is possibly the more overrated song <br>in recorded history.

I don't know how any zoomers who grew up playing Guitar Hero and Rock Band can dislike Pearl Jam. This makes me nostalgic for Guitar Hero III.


Being a lyric hound and knowing this song, this actually wasn’t that bad.


Still a hell of alot better than most of whatever they're coming out with now.😅


Funny part is this is thd only song of theirs that even sounds like this, lyrically. Most of their work is actually coherent.

Yeah, seems odd he would make a caricature of a song that isn't representative of their sound


I still don't know the lyrics.  But now I wanna hear some Pearl Jam.


As someone who doesn’t like Pearl Jam, I actually can’t stop listening to this.

And so it begins...how often now do you listen to them?:)


Nailed it! That’s exactly what it sounds like. Some some songs you can here too many times


As someone who likes pearl jam, it sounds exactly like I remember it.


As someone who likes Pearl Jam.. this is gold 😂


The thing about grunge bands that made them great wasn't their sound, it was the content of the songs. The sound was only special because bands like Pearl Jam, Alice in Chains, Sound Garden, Mother Love Bone, etc. all managed to use the music to set the perfect tone for the lyrics.


I only listened to Pearl Jam because Eddie was a spot on doppelganger  of my ex who I was still in love with. My ex even sang exactly like him - he would sing Pearl Jam songs and every chick in  the whole place would squirt like he was the real EV.

But I never knew what tf  most of the lyrics were to their songs either just like I never knew what tf  my ex was talking about half the time when we were dating which is probably why we broke up lol.


As a professional Pearl Jam despiser, The only thing missing is if Eddie Vedder sing “I’m still Alive” 500 times in a row, and every time he did, I fell closer to comatose

You all get thumbs down for not knowing good music when it bites you on the ass

I, too, despise Pearl Jam.  There are whole Kanye West albums less pretentious than "I'm Still Alive".

What about 'ooh, ooh, ooh ooh...'  5000x like in Jeremy...ugh!


My gods i loved the hell out of this band <3


OMG! My stomach hurts, I got tears in my eyes! That was so funny! You nailed it!


Now I gotta spend all day listening to Pearl Jam.. Thanks alot


Lol, I'd still jam to this if it was how they actually sounded. Fuckin' love Pearl Jam.


Is it just me but it still sounds dope 🔥🤷🏿♂💯


as someone who has loved Pearl Jam since they came out when I was a teenager, this is completely accurate and I still love it!

Right? I love the song Evenflow and it still sounds mostly like this to me!


I can confirm no matter what, it sounds exactly like this.


BWAHAHAHAHA!!   I am French-Canadian and I love Pearl Jam, but when you come from a culture where nobody  speaks english and you are struggling to learn,  I can confirm that this is exactly what it sounds like in your brain.   Back then you could buy the cassette tape of the band, and there would be a little leaflet with all the lyrics of all the songs  and cool pictures of your band. So I could learn English and sing along.  But then again, nobody around me ever bothered to actually learn what the lyrics meant. That means my grandmother and my parents could HUM Elvis Presley's songs but never actually could sing them.   I'm glad I broke that cycle.


This is a Pearl Jam song I actually like, and I love this version but I was like, "I am so glad I'm not stoned right now".


Huge pearl jam fan, but, this had me laughing. (Which I don't do often.). I will admit yellow led better is still pretty indecipherable even with years of being able to make out his lyrics.  Rats is another that is a bit tricky as it goes so fast.  To each his own I guess.


As someone who is a casual fan of pearl Jam I can conform that this is what they sound like


I would pay real money to hear Pearl Jam sing this version of Even flow in concert.


Funny, but on more accurate level, Pearl Jam was about letting out healthy aggression. Perfect music for Mosh Pit activities, what I would like to call controlled chaos.


As someone who has an issue understanding / hearing/ comprehending lyrics, this is exactly how Pearl Jam sounds to me


this is sooo good.  SOOOO ACCURATE!.  I believe the creator of this was hiding in the back of my car as I made these EXACT noises "singing" along when this tune was getting airplay.    I think I need royalties...


I am a Pearl Jam Fan and I want you to produce their next single.


Actually Pearl Jams time is yet to be. They will be bigger in the future than they ever were today's.


Not a big pearl jam fan but their unplugged version of "black" has got to be one of the best live acoustic performances ever. Eddie nails it with a Jim Morrison feel kinda

@Denise Darland I said Jim Morrison, not The Doors. And Jim had already been dead for two decades before Pearl Jam came along.

@Jeff Benzos The Doors disagreed. He sat in for Jim during The Doors RnR Hall of Fame induction ceremony. :) It's a beautiful bootleg if you can find it. I have it somewhere.

Looks up The Doors induction to the Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame, Eddie is the Lizard King 🦎

Eddie Vedders career doesn't even touch one of Jim Morrisons performances 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

@Jeff Benzos Eddie could carry anyone's ball sweat. How heavy could it possibly be? I bet if you collected an above average perspiring dude's ball sweat throughout his whole life it wouldn't be more than a gallon or two. Eddie got that all day.

Vedder couldn’t carry Jim Morrison’s ball sweat, let alone his style

Mmmmmm, gonna have to go with Alice in Chains Unplugged topping that.

Then again, I just never cared for Pearl Jam.  Alice in Chains, Stone Temple Pilots, Soundgarden, Nine Inch Nails, I mean, I could go on for hours.  Pearl Jam is in that list... somewhere?  Not even remotely near the top 20.

@secondhandsmoke10 agreed, very special rendition

That particular version always hits me somewhere other songs can’t.

i love that whole set but yeah black is next level


I love pearl jam, and even this sounds good to me


I come back to this every few months just to get a good laugh.


90s/2000s kid here. This is 100% accurate. Shit, this is what it sounds like even if you do enjoy their music 😂


I laughed for at least 30 seconds after watching this. That ending lmao


Yet it still sounds better than 99% of new “music”.


As someone who has never even heard of Pearl Jam or their ouerve before, I also agree.

@Nivelazos David JesteЯ OSI honestly, I’m with you there

As someone who thinks pearl jam is a religion, I also agree

All I understood was "pillow made of concrete" 😆

@Daniel Drader state of love and thrust! Best song by them

As someone who liked Pearl Jam pre-Jack Irons, I agree 3 x 33.33333~%.

As someone who loves Pearl Jam, I agree! Hilarious 😂

As a Pearl Jam fan I hear freezing, rests his head on a pillow made of concrete, again

@Dave Robles Actually it was Ten.  Although, I realized that there are some songs that I've always skipped over, even on that album - Jeremy being one of them.  I think maybe I just really love Evenflow.  I never heard anything after that album that connected with me.  Maybe I'll try listening to Riot Act, just to see if there's something that appeals to me.

As someone who has always been a fan as well, I agree 100%.

As someone who has just ate some jam on toast I also agree

As someone who has nothing else to add to this conversation I also agree

@𝒜𝓂𝓎𝓓 As someone who really loved Pearl Jam for one album and then completely lost interest, I also agree.

As someone who thinks Pearl jam is okay... I also agree.

As someone who doesnt like pearl jam, i also agree


I loved Pearl Jam’s 1st album. That is all.


I wanted to stay mad cause I like Pearl Jam but was agreeing on the inside, then the whistle at the end had me cracking up. 😂


🤣😅🤣 As a child of the 90's, yes, this is straight up fact.  I still like Pearl Jam.. but ya nailed it!


I'm still enjoying it. Pearl jam is amazing


So I was already in tears and then , the interpreter pops up . 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂


This style of “ruining” is amazing; would love to see more versions of this from you (complete with slide whistle, of course).

This reminded me of the scene from Ted where he said music from the '90's could be sang with nothing but vowels.


As a big Pearl Jam fan, I can´t distinguish this version from the original one.


As a non-Pearl-Jam-fan, I can confirm this is accurate.


Lol as a Pearl Jam fan I completely understand why people would hear it like this 😂


Rock music went through quite a dark spell in the 1990s, and it never really had a full recovery. There were a few gems from then, and through the following decades, but the golden era of rock was over.


This is basically for any genre that isn't understood. People who say metal is "just screaming" or rap is "just talking." Those elements exist and even though I'm not a rap fan bc it's just talking i can still see how that isnt the only element to it.


I LIKE Pearl Jam, but yes this is exactly what they sound like.

Not really. Most of their songs don't sound anything like this.

If you haven't seen it yet, you HAVE to check out the "Yellow Ledbetter" misheard lyrics video.

same, this is just a great impression, this guy should start a cover band

I was in school when they were huge and this is what every high school cover band sounded like.


That moan after the second verse just gets me everytime


I hear this song at least 10 times within 2 hours at work, and it annoys the fuck out of me so to see somebody actually understand my plight is amazing! 🤣🤣🤣


Dunno what you even mean. This is a banger. One of my favorite Pearl Jam songs


The problem is that this is EXACTLY how it sounds to people who DO like Pearl Jam as well.


Pearl Jam was never my favorite but they are so iconic that I always appreciated them and now that I am older I am remembering always hearing their songs, never really understanding the lyrics but great music overall.

Rock music would not be the same without them and now I am looking up their live performances and appreciating them even more


Slide whistle cheapens it and shatters the illusion

Aside from that, I died 😂


True story.  This was actually Eddie Vedder’s last live performance in 2002 before he went nuts.


i like pearl jam and this is what it sounds like to me. the highspeed gravelly syllables scratch my brain just right.


Was never into the grunge scene but Eddie Vedders voice is pure music to the ears,

@Winston Hillchurch "Lyrical genius"? Really?

Cite an example of his "lyrical genius."

People like you are the types who never read poetry. You wouldn't know beautiful lyricism if it smacked you in the face.

@Tiffany W, Dev anyone unconvinced listen to his roar on Outshined

went to a pearl jam concert a few years ago and this dude sang for like 3 hours and sounded amazing. and yes, chris cornell was also amazing. one thing doesn’t cancel the other

@DarkAuraLord I literally only hate them because their music is bad

@soupalex You just listed a bunch of bands I love...😭<br>Yes, even Nickelback. Silverside up was a fucking classic and i'll die on that hill, people literally only hate nickelback because of a shitty meme that started as one guy's shit take on a band he only hears radio singles from.

@soupalex You just listed a bunch of bands I love...😭
Yes, even Nickelback. Silverside up was a fucking classic and i'll die on that hill, people literally only hate nickelback because of a shitty meme that started as one guy's shit take on a band he only hears radio singles from.

@Winston Hillchurch if i could retroactively delete pearl jam from existence, i would do it in a heartbeat. even if you kind of like pearl jam, you have to grant it would be worth it just to be rid of the endless stream of buttrock that followed. fucking… nickelback, trapt, shinedown, creed, puddle of mudd. if only we lived in the timeline where none of them ever existed.

Chris Cornell was the best vocalist of that scene, no comparison, no debate

@SANITIZED, INC. ugh yes it is. I’m a Toto fan but there is no denying Eddie Vedder is a lyrical genius and his voice is another instrument.


Ive been creased for 10 minutes straight now, because back in the day I wasn't on the PJ hype train, and this is exactly what it sounded liked.


This was one of my favourite songs of theirs.


🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 long time pearl jam fan and this absolutely nailed me in the funny bone lol. Well done sir


I’m a Huge Pearl Jam fan! This knocked me off my chair 😂


I love Pearl Jam, and that’s exactly what it sounds like. 😉


The best description of grunge in general that I've ever heard is that it sounds like someone stubbed their toe and decided to sing about it.

@charlotte marsh <br>If you didn't comment this, I would have..   🤣

@charlotte marsh
If you didn't comment this, I would have..   🤣

Love pearl jam...and love this video...can't stop laughing

Bleeting sheep with a head cold. Yuck. Too nasal.


This is wonderful.  Absolutely wonderful.


This is EXACTLY how they sound… and I like Pearl Jam!


When I heard Even Flow for the first time I absolutely thought this was EXACTLY how they sounded. I couldn’t stand them. It changed when I heard “Black” and I’ve been in love with the band ever since. They grew on me. Funny how things work. Lol


I don’t understand half of what he normally says but I still love Pearl Jam


You can feel how electric the atmosphere was there ....


That’s pretty much how the crowd was singing along with them when I saw them live back in 1992 & 1993. The energy at those shows was amazing!

@Clint The Great Awesome! My most memorable Pearl Jam concert was at the University of North Texas in 1993. That was when they boycotted Ticketmaster and sold their tickets the day of the concert for $7. I got up early and went over to get in line at about 7AM, and the line was already all the way across campus. Luckily, I had some friends that camped out all night and got me a ticket. Fun times!

@Ryan’s Custom Shop and Gear Outlet Agreed.  I was in Seattle at that time and the music scene was flat out awesome.

I don't care for them, but i saw them in Berlin about 10 years ago and the show was amazing. The entire arena exploded and people sang every word to every song.


That’s exactly what I hear when it’s stuck in my head for no reason.


Yep, this is accurate.  I didn't even remember who this was, just some music that the radio kept forcing into my ear between the bands I did like... when I could not reach the radio to temporary turn it down


I have no idea what Mr. Vedder is "saying", but I find this as hilarious as much as I like Pearl Jam


funny how this still sounds better than 99% of the music out there.

@Chuck Ficago they wrote this song in the 90’s sooooo

Uh, no. This sounds like rehashed 90s crap.


Using the sign languagest is a stroke of genius, really makes it inclusive, not for those lucky enough to  be deaf at the concert but for those hearing-able who have no fucking-idea what the fucks happening.


I always felt like Pearl Jam songs can be sung only using vowels.


I thank I can speak for all Pearl Jam fans when I say that we've all done this in the car at least once


As someone who likes corn on the cob, I can confirm that this is 100% accurate.


Awesome!  Can’t tell if this is the real or fake version 😂


My brother was a huge Pearl Jam fan. This is not dissimilar to how I would actually sing along to this song when it came on. I just sang nonsense, but it sounded close-enough to be really annoying.


Made of Concrete is my favourite Pearl Jam song. This version sounds marvellous

This is "Never Showed Him Any Concrete", the remix.


Lol! As someone who’s only casually familiar with Pearl Jam, I had to listen to this 5 times and then search out the original (“Even Flow”) before I could figure out how this was edited at all.


My mom is a fan of Pearl Jam. I showed this to her to get her perspective and she says it is accurate 🤣


🤣🤣🤣<br>But seriously, that’s why I always liked AiC and Soundgarden over PJ and Nirvana when it came to those Seattle “grunge” bands. They all had excellent music, but the former two had strong vocalists that you can actually understand in every song.

🤣🤣🤣

i listened to the song once and this is exactly what i remember


I ❤Pearl Jam and this video!!! Great work! 🎉


as someone whose mom loves pearl jam, this is completely accurate


Eff that, I will always love Pearl Jam's music.


as someone who has not knowingly listened to pearl jam, i have no idea what im listening too but ngl it kinda slaps


I’m surprised the sign language lady understands this guy. Very impressive


😂😂😂 I'm crying! 😂😂😂 the timing of that clown whistle is perfect.


As someone who love this song. I too sing that way


Ive never needed anything more in my life than to have this as a ringtone.


As someone who jammed his pearls in a clown car while doing the cha-cha slide, funniest of all time right here.


I’ve never listened to Pearl Jam, and this sounds good.. 👀


Didn't think anyone or anything could make me laugh today. You proved me wrong. Thank you.


Thank you! I’ve always felt they were way overrated. Saw them live at lollapalloza, it was a good opportunity to use the bathroom


That is the only Pearl Jam song that doesn't make me want to dive into a wood chipper (and it's a great song for DJing - you can come out of any song and into it perfectly). I'm just glad someone else hears the same thing I do, and that I'm not having a stroke!

I thought the same thing until I started properly listening to them yesterday. I've only listened to their first 2 albums but both are practically flawless.

Ballsy music Only, if you'd please. I pass on beats pm

@Matthew Vaughan The problem with pearls listening to DJs is that they don't like to jam, maybe.

@Justus Eubank Maybe the problem with you not liking DJs is you listen to Pearl Jam

They have a lot better songs. Daughter, do the evolution,  elderly lady in a small town, black.

Have you heard "Animal" or anything off No Code?


:27 While rambling, still has time to get in a grunt. Fucking love it


I really like Pearl Jam but this is absolutely  hysterical


I can't tell if this is ruined or perfect.  I see no mistakes.


As someone who loves pearl jam, I can agree, this is 100% what I hear as well.


That’s hilarious. All true outtakes mashed together. But nah, as a Pearl Jam fan you definitely didn’t ruin them for me.


I’ve only ever been able to hear Pearl Jam this way since I was 10 years old, jumping off the couch pretending I was in the Evenflow video


I dont dislike Pearl Jam...but it sounds like all bruh did was add a whistle at the end.

💀

It sounds exactly like what Ive heard when Ive heard them. Pure essence of Pearl Jam.


Do the same for Linkin Park please ( I'm a hardcore fan but this shit cracks me up 😂 )


I never liked them since they came out when I was a freshman in high school. It seemed that mostly the girls liked peal jam, and yes, this is exactly what they always and still do sound like to me.


What's the joke? This is exactly how I transcribed the lyrics 30 years ago when my cousin gave me the cassette. Been jamming while wearing pearls around my neck ever since(thanks grandma RIP).


Still better than their last 2 albums 🙄 <br>Man I remember PJ used to rock.

Still better than their last 2 albums 🙄
Man I remember PJ used to rock.


Eddie is one of the best Mumblers EVER! Heard his mentor was Bruce Springsteen 😂


I love Pearl Jam and this is how they sound to me


As someone who lusted after Eddie and still does, doesn’t matter what he sounded like. He and Gavin Rossdale were the sexiest grungsters alive.


I like them and it still sounds like this.


It's so true. I can imagine Eddie showing loyrics to the band, and them saying, those are never going to fit, and he's like "I'll make them fit". The lyrics definitely look like they were written without any music in mind, and then just shoehorned into a song. I was in a band with a guy like that. He had a book full of lyrics, and when the band wrote a tune, he'd just look through the book for anything he could force to fit. We had to go to war, just to get him to change one or two words to make it scan better.


Still better than any modern Hip hop or Rap garbage.

100x better. Today's "music" is bad, juvenile poetry with a repetitive backing track


i want my pearl jam to sound /more/ like this


This started on autoplay when i wasnt holding my phone. As a person who hasn't listened to pearl jam since i was a teenager, i legit thought this was actually pearl jam.


You know, I thought I liked Pear Jam but this video is a marked improvement.  I can finally understand the words!  Can we get Yellow Ledbetter next?


as someone who used to love pearl jam and no longer does , i find this both nostalgic and accurate .


This is on par with the accuracy of the "Every Red Hot Chili Peppers Song Ever" one.


I wish this was a 5min video because ive been telling people for 25 years this is exactly what pearl jam is 😂


I love Pearl Jam, but you hit the nail RIGHT on the head!


As someone who jams pearls for a living, this is a video. 😂


I think I've always been familair with the name of the band but couldn't, even if you put a gun to my head, have told you the name of a single song they do/did.
Having seen this I can honestly say that I still couldn't, even if you put a gun to my head, have told you the name of a single song they do/did.
But that's not just true of Pearl Jam. It's true about pretty much every band from the 90s


I swear to God that grunt at :33 was the kicker for me that sent me over the edge...while at work. Such a small video but jam packed with nothing but goodness.


This is how we listen to PJ whether we like it or not 😂😂😂😂😂😂


As someone who does like Pearl Jam, this is what it sounds like in general

That's stupid. Pretty much none of their other songs sound like this. And this song has an epic guitar solo.


I saw Pearl jam only because it was for free - I knew a girl who worked in the ticket booth - and this was exactly how it sounded to me.


Finally, someone hears it like I have since day 1😂


As one who hasn't really listened to much of Pearl Jam's discography, this unironically sounded good lmao


32 sec mark killed me. Vedder contaminated all male vocalists in the 90s when his truck overturned and emptied into river of 90s rock. All the kids started singing like him.


Awww man. I was waiting for him to hit the high notes in the hook!


I think the siren whistle is this creators trademark like the pinch harmonic is to Zackk Wylde It's a subtlety to let you know who it is.


Nothing can beat the magnificence of Jurrasic Park being Rick Rolled....nothing.


my old garage band played the fremont art and wine festival outside of a music store. Right after our set one of the guys that worked there got on his phone and drunkenly yelled "EVEN FLOW PEARL JAM" five times until siri figured it out. Then he did karaoke to the entire song mumbling over the PA.


It feels like the world is getting a little darker every damn day.  But you...your creations, your crimes against music...they make the encroaching darkness a little more bearable.  I'd buy you a beer if I could.  Thank you.

Before the lights go out, I want to hear Eddie Vedder going "scabadaba dooby meadow on the concrete"

Book your place in line from Ticketmaster because I'm way ahead of y'all with decades old sake and akavit 😁

Single malt aged 18 years on your rider from here 🍻😂

@Canuck move along kids, papa is coming with slavic blessing of vodka


As someone who does not listen to Pearl Jam, if you told me this was a real song, I would believe you.


This is so on point.  I've never really ever been able to figure out what the hell Eddie Vedder was mumbling about.


Ok. As someone the same age as Peral Jam, and I never liked them, I can say unequivocally that you friggin' NAILED IT!


As someone who has seen Eddie very drunk performing live, this has been accurate

John the lesser of the third of the first


You know who would find this edit hilarious? Eddie Vedder. And that's why we love him.


This is just generally what most music sounds like to me.


The fact is this is actually better than the original


😹😹😹😹 I love pearl jam and this is 100% accurate even


I had a roommate that would play nothing but Pearl Jam. Anytime I hear the first note of any of their songs, I get violent.


I’ve fluctuated from kind of liking them to kind of not liking them my whole life.


As someone who is deaf, dumb and blind, I love Pearl Jam.


I love Pearl Jam! This video is awesome!


The songs I enjoy from Pearl Jam is Animal and Even flow.  I'm more of a Nirvana fan and like about 80% of their music.


As someone who likes pearl jam, this is exactly how they sound


The pained, high pitch groan that’s made when he turns his head is fucking uncanny.


Am a big fan of PJ but that made me laugh 😂.


As someone who was forced to regularly listen to pearl jam any time they got in their brother's car as a teen, I'm traumatized please send help


Was there an esrthquake? <br>Their music is so easy to play they needed a LOT of theatrics to keep engaged. The audiences loved Pearl Jam's histrionics. And their simplicity. It made them feel "Hey, I can do this..." and that's why music is the way it is for certain fans. Pearl Jam fans like easy shit that's safe, but makes them feel comfortably dangerous. Like Christian "rock". Pearl Jam is grunge Stryper. There. I did it. See? I AM a PJ fan after all. (Vs is all I can stomach. Like too much Vedder cheese.)

I've been waiting so long for somebody to be able to explain my condition.

i cannot tolerate pearl jam at all and now i have a way to show other people how much it makes me suffer. thank you so much.

@Wes Broome yes. It's funny how it works when your not a fan of something like vocals or instrumentation, but the same type of sound is great with another band.

i guess we all have noises that annoy the shit out of us and unfortunately pearl jam is one of them

good job on surviving grunge though


I never understood why Pearl Jam was loved so much.  This is funny to me.


This is just about everything from the mid to late 90's.


I’m sure if you played this to most people they’d just nod and say yep this is it.


I've been a fan of pearl jam ever since their first album came out when I was in high school and im gonna say this is 100 percent accurate lol


That's mostly accurate. Their first album is great. After that they went to shit. The worst thing they ever did was let the singer start writing his own song lyrics.


I like Pearl Jam and this is exactly what I hear.


So, I am admittedly not a Pearl Jam fan, and you could have played this clip for me and said it was totally that one Pearl Jam song that I know the sound of but not the name of and I would have 100% believed it was the original track.


This is <b>exactly</b> what Pearl Jam sounds like to me. I can't tell the difference from the real thing.

This is *exactly* what Pearl Jam sounds like to me. I can't tell the difference from the real thing.


Listened to pearl jam growing up this is what they literaly sounded like to me as a kid. Read the lyrics as an adult like WTF? Those were actualy words?  Still a great throwback song, one of their best.


Used to never care for them but must say it grew on me


Is this a newly remastered version of Even Flow!? Sounds great 👍


Lul, this sounds exactly like what I hear when I hear this song. Brilliant job


Still sounded pretty good. I liked this remix haha.


I love pearl Pearl Jam and this is hilarious 😂❤


I'm not really into Pearl Jam like everyone else is but i've heard them before and they have alot of great songs. They aren't just some one hit wonder band, their songs Jeremy, Even Flow, Alive and Black are up there amongst the greats as far as I'm concerned.


Still sounds better then most post Y2K bands


as someone who likes pearljam to a mild degree (meaning dont ask me to list all their songs), is this not just the actual song?


I Love Pearl Jam & that was hilarious!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣


The worst part is, this is the video that made me fall in love with Ten. Hats off to this one!


Most of their songs aren't that bad, but Yellow Ledbetter is literally memeing on itself.


I was ready to be offended and tell all about great music, but instead laughed my ass off. Well done


Actually, if Eddie Veder went into this kind of quasi rap style more often, it would be kind of fun.


i know this song from guitar hero.<br>this is 100% what i heard while trying to hit the notes

That sign language girl is a star in her own right


I'm dying

That's the funniest shit today 😂


I like Pearl Jam and yeah this is very accurate to be honest lmao


As a fan of Pearl Jam, I don't know what you mean by replaying a well-known song that literally everyone has already heard thousands of times, as if that's supposed to clarify anything --

Oh.


When Eddie says "maybe he'll see a little hamalama hubawuba lmabama dooyahama booya" I was like yeah I feel that.


You nailed it. i could never listen to them!


Omg this is hilarious, I’m in tears!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣


sounds like me as a kid singing along to this song, no idea what the lyrics were


These guys had a beastly energy to them.  Can’t replace 90s rock.

90's and 80's was a replacement for the 70's rock! There are too many legends in that era to make any sensible argument.


I laughed harder the 10th time watching this video than the first.


The only reason I can tell this is wrong is cause I genuinely like even flow, if it were any other song I’d be indifferent


Average pearl jam enjoyer:<br>"This actually goes hard."

Average pearl jam enjoyer:
"This actually goes hard."


Going to slip this into a party  mix and see if anyone notices


I just listened to the original song for the first time after watching this video. I swear there's no difference other than the slide whistle.


Man, I tell ya. When Eddie Vedder sang "On a wheelie and a wheastinallawayeeyay, on a coal onasay, onacoal, onasay, ona collab again." I really felt that.


Ironically, this video is what got me into Pearl Jam


That's what they sound like to me. I like a lot of bands from that time, but I could never get into Pearl Jam. Most of my friends dug them. Hey, everybody's gotta eat, so good for them making it big.


Can confirm. My wife, unironically asked, "How is that different from the actual song?"


I can’t stop watching this, and it gets funnier every time.


I actually started liking Pearl Jam yeeeears after they were popular. I don’t know what changed my mind.

That said, I laughed so fucking hard at this that no sound came out.


That was just Pearl Jam. Eddie goes hard.


I sent this to my wife. She goes "I don't know this band." So I sent her the video to Evenflow, so she could hear the real version. She goes "they're different?," referring to the two videos. Gotta love that woman.


I always turn off the radio or change the station when Pearl Jam comes on lol


This video doesn’t bother me because I know that Pearl Jam’s lyrics and music are really good. When this came out it was a breath of fresh air due to all the hair band music constantly being shoved down our throats. Original stuff by Pearl Jam, Nirvana, Soundgarden, AIC and even STP.


Actually,  I think this sounds better than the real Pearl Jam. I'm not even kidding.


As someone who doesn’t like Pearl Jam, this is accurate


This is exactly Pearl Jam, thank you for this


Was waiting for the punchline to drop but am half asleep so there you go. Prettily funny


I am in the don't like them camp, but the song sounds JUST like when I hear them on the radio!! I think he raised the volume of the monosyllabic grunts, but that IS the song.
