I’m sad…

So sad…

I’m bawling…

Okay, no I’m not….

But I really am sad. Sad because Pearl Jam…they…they’re done. They refuse to be good. Their last good album was Riot Act, and then they crapped out, as I said in my Minutes to Midnight (by Linkin Park) review.

So, what’s bad about this song? EVERYTHING!!! This isn’t like their old songs. This song tells no story. It deals with no subject. It’s just crap. And I will not allow Pearl Jam to change their name to Pearl CRAP!!

Okay, I’m just gonna start from the beginning. My dad said to me that when I was a baby, he used to rock me to sleep with Long Road. Yes, I’ve always been cool. Even today, Pearl Jam stands as one of my favorite bands, maybe even my favorite, ahead of Linkin Park…at least the old Pearl Jam.


Ok, I guess I'm bein' kinda harsh. I mean, MAYBE this song is okay. But it really will never match up to their previous greatness. My favorite songs from Pearl Jam are Even Flow and Given to Fly. Does this even come 10 feet to being close? NO!!!!!!

For one thing, the only lyrics you can actually hear are “Life Wasted!!!” over and over and over. That’s just the beginning! This song deals with nothing real. It’s just Pearl Jam literally wasting their lives with a stupid song! And the song doesn’t even SOUND good! I mean, stupid lyrics don't mean anything, as long as it's well-composed! But it's NOT!!!!!


Anyway, this song is PROOF that when you get older, you’re not very good. This happened to Rolling Stones, too. Maybe Pearl Jam should consider retiring if the rest of their songs aren’t any good. In short, don’t buy this. If you liked Pearl Jam before now, just don’t buy it. You’ll be, forgive the pun, wasting your life. Break out your old albums and singles and listen the fire out of them. I’m sure the single’s already sold too well for Pearl Jam to know how crappy they are, so it’s too late to tell them to go back to basics. But it’s not worth the 10 bucks anyway, so just leave it if you liked old Pearl Jam.

Overall: Crappy. Pearl Jam, stop being mediocre and be good again. Please.


I have decided not to do the end-of-the-year award ceremony, since I'm obviously not going to get any e-mails. Besides, I think I was also supposed to pick something almost on par with the best and worst stuff, so the people would have more variety. Maybe if my site is more popular next year, I'll do it.
