This song is a lost classic. It should have been on the charts and received radio play. But, no. That's why its so legendary. It's not over played or commercialized. Its raw.....pure, uncut, relentless grunge. No sale out. It reminds me of AIC "Don't Follow" and "Nutshell" . They are truly treasures.
Somebody build a freakin fortress around this band. God just listen to this, it can saves lives. I'm so freakin glad I was a teenager in the 90s. They just turned my world upside down in 1992, I was 12. For the next decade, nothing could compare to these guys for me. Still today, with 2 kids, the mere fact that they are still around put a smile on my face everyday.
We really were lucky. We had late 70s music in our childhoods, 80s music in jr high through college, and 90s music to start our lives. No generation was as fortunate musically as we were.
@@adrian-vu6gt Perfectly worded! We were so lucky to have seen some of the greatest bands of the’ ‘90’s. And most times we saw them on an outdoor stage!
Rebecca Chester me too. The lyrics are ridiculously relevant, I took a long drive and I realised.....and I've never looked back, not once. Best of luck to you x
Saw things...Saw Things...Clearer...Clearer...Once You...Were in My...REARVIEW MIRROR!!!! One of my favorite moments in any song ever. Not just PJ but any band. So much emotion. I can never get enough.
this is close to the best live song I've seen performed . i was three rows back , just past spitting distance . every time i hear this song i cry . it wakes up what's dead inside you .
I miss the nineties and being a teenager and listening to bands like pearl jam, smashing pumpkins and nirvana, when they they first came out. Someone invent a time machine. The nostalgia is killing me!
I can never seem to get past .57 seconds!!!!! That cute as smile and little eye brow lift when he says"sorry" gets me every bloody time, I just automatically find myself hitting rewind!!! So effin beautiful 💕🔥🎶. I'm off to listen to the first verse again 😉✌️
Pearl Jam in August 2024🎉🎉 Eddie Vedder Best front man ever. I can listen to him sing all day and never get tired. He's Truly An Amazing and Beautiful man❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
@@leeleeturn Imagine being the bitch that had him just for herself during his best years and then dumped him. And he is literally more beautiful than her. And I'm a straight male. And I bet you he never cheated on her. Now, that's a tragedy.
I love how he apologized after he botched a line... To a crowd in the Netherlands. Seemed odd at first, but I'm pretty sure they speak better English there than they do in most US states.
Im 52 years old and I love the Beatles and ACDC into the 80s I Love Iron Maiden and Metallica scorpions and Into the 90s its Chilli peppers Foo Fighters and of course Pearl Jam. I remember the first time I heard them exactly the spot. The party was shit until they played Jam. As soon as I heard Eddies song I was there. Im a person who loves all forms of music and Pearl Jam deliver it baby.
They're still so freaking amazing 30 yrs later. Timeless, beautiful and amazingly talented. Thankfully we still have them here. So many lost... Drugs and suicides. 😭
I've been watching every version I can find of RVM, and this is the best. It's in the daytime, so it easy to see them all. The sound is awesome. The instrumental part is really well done. Eddie looks so mesmerising. I keep coming back to this one.
Was almost going to say something like here's "the boys in their prime" but I couldn't because they are just ALWAYS in their prime. Every era, every album (yes, I still like to say album sometimes!), every lyric and strum of the guitars. The HEART and the beat of the drums and THAT voice. Words and Music. Words and Music.
this version is SIIIICK! God everything about this is so awesome... the song, the quality, the fans being captured, the fact that its a VHS copy.... I LOVE IT.
We all know how amazing a band is when their live versions are better than the studio versions. Virtually every song they played this show sounded better than the studio versions. If they’re not the best live band they are up there.
Lord what a feeling that must be-- humanity as far as the eye can see, going apeshit over what you're putting down. These guys SO deserve it! Just 5 minutes of it and I could die happy...
The look on his face and the gleam in his eyes is why this is real music! You can’t fake that emotion. New music is just commercials set to a catchy tune
Matt Cameron just can’t do justice to any Dave A. song no matter what. Dave was just different and his feel and accents were another level. He really made Pearl Jam.
I'm always shocked how Dave fanboys manage to nullify the significance of the original 4 members who were there since the beginning, who never left, and those 4 are 3 guitarists, 1 bassist and 1 singer (4 musicians). And give all the credit to the drummer (1 musician, 4 musicians > 1 musician) who was the fourth drummer of the band, and who had absolutely nothing to do with the first album, that MADE PJ iconic I genuinely don't understand how come you be so delirious
I've seen this video more times than what sounds sane and yet I just realized he actually says SORRY with the cutest of the smilesssssssss. He's reached Kurt and Jack White's place of greatnes since I saw him live a few days ago, I'm obssesed with him, specially the song SMILE, mind-blowing, hottest song ever.
I was lucky , I grew up in the late 70's early 80's by the time I was 21 it was 1993 and I went through early deep purple iron Maiden Metallica anthrax and pearl jam etc.. To me Pearl jam never reached the heights they should have done, today they may have done, but thanks to online videos old videos of this can live on. One of the best bands of the 20th Century. This is a classic
I gather speed ... just that line ... defiant, empowering .. makes me want to run & fight & stand up. Exact same feeling now as when it was first released. Watched this just before bed & now I’m wide awake!
I took a drive today Time to emancipate I guess it was the beatings made me wise But I'm not about to give thanks, or apologize I couldn't breathe, holdin' me down Hand on my face Pushed to the ground Enmity gaged, united by fear Forced to endure What I could not forgive I seem to look away Wounds in the mirror waved It wasn't my surface most defiled Head at your feet, fool to your crown Pissed on my plate, swallowed it down Enmity gauged, united by fear Tried to endure What I could not forgive Saw things Saw things Saw things Saw things Clearer Clearer once you, were in my rearviewmirror I gather speed from you fucking with me Once and for all I'm far away I hardly believe Finally the shades, are raised, hey yeah Saw things so much clearer Once you, once you (rearviewmirror) Saw things so much clearer Once you, once you (rearviewmirror) Saw things so much clearer Once you, once you (rearviewmirror) Saw things so much clearer Once you, oh yeah
IT´S AN OLD BATTLE SONG, THANK YOU GUYS FOR MAKING THIS SONG WHAT IT CONTINUES HELPING ME TO FOLLOW IN THIS LIFE, IT ALWAYS APPEARS WHEN I NEED IT, LIKE IF YOU SEE IT AT 40'S !!!
"Saw things so much clearer, Once you were in my rearview mirror" One of the best lines ever!

Latisha Loftis you are the same of " I remember sitting in my room with repeat bottom on" of another video

Latisha Loftis I agree with you
Latisha Loftis maybe it is not played that much on TVs and radios but RVM is one of the songs that pearl jam played live most

Lugosi2006 You and your generation are very lucky... Sadly i was born too late (1999). I'd give everything to live in the 90s.
Was in my 30s in the 90s but this music speaks to me more than any other. Keep on rockin'!
I was in high school in the 90s and it was the best time of muy life. I'd doo anything to go back.... the music, the clothes, the whole experience
I'm also glad they're still around there, waiting impatiently for them to come back to Brazil
Well said
mah dude is smashing those rythmic riffs while singing like it was nothing
That’s our Eddie.
What a band. What a front-man. What a song
Sweaty Eddie = the definition of true beauty
Sweaty Vedder.
Love love love it!
"But I'm not about to give thanks... or apologize..."
"sorry"...
isn't he the cuttest
?
About having been beaten as a child?
Yes he is. Funny. love and peace
He is
He is!! It’s just crazy how cute !
I’m so proud to be Gen Ex and to have seen some of the greatest bands ever. Pearl Jam was iconic of our generation. This was their best song.

Best band ever existed, my all time favorite
0:58 ... I love this smile and "sorry"
Onur Bilginer He messed up the lyrics.
Actually he does It a lot of time with this song
It's that voice...troubled, manic, haunting but most of all brilliant.
this is close to the best live song I've seen performed . i was three rows back , just past spitting distance . every time i hear this song i cry . it wakes up what's dead inside you .
I understand that feeling
Best song ever this is my anthem song I play daily.
I love how he says he is sorry for messing up the lyrics......Eddie is the best.....and absolutely gorgeous!!!!
4:09 that freakin bass line 🤯 This masterpiece is my ringtone for 15 years.
They need to get them to play at half time for a Superbowl. One of the best American bands of all time, it needs to be done.
Agreed!
As a photographer I would say Eddie was one of the most beautiful male acts of the century.....

annie stone what a great comment. So true!
They started to play this song and several others way slower somewhere in 2000s so I can't agree, I think 90's was their prime
this version is SIIIICK! God everything about this is so awesome... the song, the quality, the fans being captured, the fact that its a VHS copy.... I LOVE IT.
Turn " the lights off Josh ! " Its not a TV studio , its a rock concert .
That was a great moment when Eddie just let’s rip after the musical break. I love it when he plays guitar with the band.
Saw things so much clearer... ❤
Head at your feet....fool to your crown! Fist on my plate....I swallowed that fucker down!
Gotta love this fucking band! They are the greatest
One of the best songs of pearl jam
My favorite rendition of Rearview Mirror! I love the rawness of this band! PJ you will always be my favorite band!

I've watched this f***ing performance so many times! It never gets old~
That "sorry" gets me every time 😢😅

Or on heroin

I took a drive today
Time to emancipate
I guess it was the beatings made me wise
But I'm not about to give thanks, or apologize
I couldn't breathe, holdin' me down
Hand on my face
Pushed to the ground
Enmity gaged, united by fear
Forced to endure
What I could not forgive
I seem to look away
Wounds in the mirror waved
It wasn't my surface most defiled
Head at your feet, fool to your crown
Pissed on my plate, swallowed it down
Enmity gauged, united by fear
Tried to endure
What I could not forgive
Saw things
Saw things
Saw things
Saw things
Clearer
Clearer once you, were in my rearviewmirror
I gather speed from you fucking with me
Once and for all
I'm far away
I hardly believe
Finally the shades, are raised, hey yeah
Saw things so much clearer
Once you, once you (rearviewmirror)
Saw things so much clearer
Once you, once you (rearviewmirror)
Saw things so much clearer
Once you, once you (rearviewmirror)
Saw things so much clearer
Once you, oh yeah
Oh man thank you! So glad to have the lyrics!
TQ 🙏
