I am an avid pearl jam fan and since 2012 I just recently discovered this incredible song I'm in awe and shock such a beautiful song always brings me to tears and smiles
I love how he changes the word "portion" this is one of my all time favorite songs. This song will always put me in a good mood and into tears. This is one of those songs that makes you realize what's important.
Lyrics - Know a man His face seems pulled and tense Like he's riding on a motorbike In the strongest winds So I approach with tact Suggest the he should relax But he's always moving much too fast Said he'll see me on the flip side On this trip he's taken for a ride He's been taking too much on There he goes with his perfectly unkept clothes There he goes He's yet to come back But I've seen his picture It doesn't look the same up on the rack We go way back I wonder 'bout his insides It's like his thoughts are too big for his size He's been taken, where? I don't know Off he goes, with his perfectly unkept hope There he goes And now I rub my eyes For he has returned Seems my preconceptions are What should have been burned For he still smiles And he's still strong Nothing's changed But the surrounding bullshit That has grown And now he's home and we're laughing Like we always did My same old, same old friend Until a quarter to ten I saw the strain creep in He seems distracted And I know just what is gonna happen next Before his first step He is off again
"his face seems pulled and tense like he's riding on a motorbike in the strongest winds" I love that metaphor, and love Eddie. Thx for upload this man, great quality.
I love this song, I knew a couple of people just like that, while your with them it's wonderful and having a great time and then they leave for awhile and show up out of blue again, so sad. Anyways, awesome performance by everyone, I love Pearl Jam, my favorite band on this planet!! Thank you for sharing this awesome video 😊💓🤘✌️
What a fantastic song, but I wish this version was played a bit slower.. like on No Code. Much more melancholy there. Vs this one where it's more up-beat - which to me, makes it seem more positive. Still a great version. It's amazing how different they can be.
@vzbenster vzbenster....this is not synched from the "Live On Two Legs" album. It is a different version and just as good! I love this better than the studio version from the No Code album.
He's singing about himself ,in a interview he says " the song off he goes ,that's me being a shit friend , everything is great one moment and next thing you know, I'm gone ,hence off he goes "
Without QUESTION the most overlooked PJ tune. Can’t believe black and even flow ended up being bigger hits than this masterpiece.
It needs to be played more often. I love this song.
I agree with Jeffrey!😄💞💞
I know Im quite off topic but does anybody know of a good site to watch new tv shows online?

Lyrics -
Know a man
His face seems pulled and tense
Like he's riding on a motorbike
In the strongest winds
So I approach with tact
Suggest the he should relax
But he's always moving much too fast
Said he'll see me on the flip side
On this trip he's taken for a ride
He's been taking too much on
There he goes with his perfectly unkept clothes
There he goes
He's yet to come back
But I've seen his picture
It doesn't look the same up on the rack
We go way back
I wonder 'bout his insides
It's like his thoughts are too big for his size
He's been taken, where? I don't know
Off he goes, with his perfectly unkept hope
There he goes
And now I rub my eyes
For he has returned
Seems my preconceptions are
What should have been burned
For he still smiles
And he's still strong
Nothing's changed
But the surrounding bullshit
That has grown
And now he's home and we're laughing
Like we always did
My same old, same old friend
Until a quarter to ten
I saw the strain creep in
He seems distracted
And I know just what is gonna happen next
Before his first step
He is off again
best pearl jam song ever 🙂
I love this song and and Eddie is my favorite singer.
Awesome guitar solo. You can tell he's feeling the music through every fiber of his being.
An all time classic from Pearl Jam Love it.

No comment ,how to choose the best song from Pearl jam !
Almost IMPOSSIBLE.❤❤❤❤❤
There is a story in everything song he sings 👍
That's one of the performances I will never tire watching.
Think of my grandfather... He was my only father... Miss you dad!
I adore this song, and Eddie’s voice, and the arrangement, and everything PearlJam, really! 😊💜
Live on 2 legs version is freaking awesome. the guitar in it makes it jus that right kind of country-ness to it.
Their best live album
Thank you Pearl Jam for one of the prettiest songs about the saddest subject....
it's eddie writing about himself... it's actually quite the opposite
@@AnthonyKruegerOfficial it’s not it’s about kurt
@@sydneyneill6537 it’s about a friend never being there for you, and Eddie is that friend. He said that was the meaning of the song multiple times
@@drewlehtola3726 it’s abt kurt lmao
@@sydneyneill6537 no it’s not. What are you fucking dense? It’s crazy the amount of songs people think are about Kurt that really aren’t.
This is such a great song...
Love this song. Eddie sings it so well.
I was at this show! Ive been to 11....this was the best.

Bring back Jack
I guess the sound comes from the live CD and was synchronized with the video images.
Seattle If you hear me do your Ulramega OK albums, We Die Young
Who is Ed singing about? CC?
He's singing about himself ,in a interview he says " the song off he goes ,that's me being a shit friend , everything is great one moment and next thing you know, I'm gone ,hence off he goes "
But he's only movin' much too fast, and there he goeth
eddie should cover rem’s songs
This song , I chose for my son's funeral. Aged 32, he committed suicide. It depicted him to a tee.
there is one...Alice in Chains (with Layne of course)
isnt this is response to kurt ??
