Thank you all for your kind words and comments. It's been 8 years since my father passed away on this day and I made this video for him. He was my hero and I felt the images in this video, needed to be epic. At first it was going to be without the lyrics, but the song is so powerful, it's great to singalong to.
Eddie wrote this song while he was looking out of the front of a studio window when it was pouring down rain outside in Seattle on a cold drizzely day. (He was looking outside at the world as it goes by. The door to the studio entrance kept blowing open so there was a chill in the room itself (feel the chill) he was sitting on the windowsill looking out (i see the birds in the rain) the reason i know this is because i was there. I followed them there on my mountain bike. Not knowing at the time how fortunate i truly was to experience such an incredible moment that day would become to me. Also not knowing how BIG the band would become the talent was undeniable. Their music saved my life and still to this day i will NEVER forget that day. Their music still means more than any lyric can write. Thank you to Pearl Jam and the greatest American Rock band on the planet!
What a life, what a ride. Thanks for sharing that Chad my man. Truly one of the best of the best this song stirs my soul. Takes me to days gone by, good days!
I dont care if anybody believes me its not about me its about the moment and what this songs does to the emotions of its listeners. He also wrote this about his real Dad he Never really got to know that well as his Mom didnt tell Eddie it was his real Father until he was around 13 (Hense “Son have i got a story for you, at age 13 your real Daddy was dying”) its part of the Trilogy- Once, evenflow, Footsteps
I believe you and think that's amazing man. I don't know what stuck with me more, the movie Out of the Furnace or this song on the soundtrack. Both just visceral thunderstorms of tremendously dark beauty and sadness.
Me too.... R.i.p. to our dads ❤. I had a dream about him last night and woke up crying 😔, i miss him so much. Wherever he is i know I'll see him again one day.
My dad died in 86 when I was 7 my mom in 92 when I was 12 and inwas sent to live with my grandmother one day I was listening to this on my walkman and I look up and see hundreds of monarch butterflies covering the tops of the trees in front of my grandma's house
I use this song as my release from sin, God is my dad. Yesterday I found the Holy Spirit and everything has changed, I’m released from the chains of sin
Hands down the most beautiful lyric video on TH-cam thank you so much shed a tear at the end then read your comment on your father and now i appreciate it even more. Always remember that he will be with you untill one day you meet again. Salute
I heard this song after seeing Out of the Furnace and I felt how powerful this song was. I just looked up the words and realized the year my dad passed away was the year Out of the Furnace came out and I play this song often. This opens my heart every time I hear this song. It's beautiful and powerful and spiritual beyond belief. I can feel him singing this as a prayer. So beautiful.
This song... I like it a lot and enjoy singing to it. I have my own bad history with my father. He disowned me and grew I to hate him. He wasn't always around as I grew up. My mom still will tell me every now and then I'm just like him at times... Sometimes I wish for approval... Idk... Wish things didn't come to what they are now. I don't know, part of me still misses him and hope he'll contact me and the other part wants nothing to do with him anymore... This song speaks many levels.
I understand completely. I won't go into my he'll, but I will tell you if you don't find a way to let go of the hate and the bitterness it will ruin any chances you'll have at happiness. I speak from experience and years of being all messed up. Life is precious and short....
This was my goodbye song to my dad. I did not know him very well in life but i now know him in death, because he walks beside me. After his death I walked a very dangerous path leading up to drugs and alcohol, I shaved my head not knowing that our hair in my culture is sacred and our connection to Spirit. I am told i look just like him except for being a female. In my addiction i listen to this quite often and will always and forever be grateful for Eddie vedder and the band. I am now sober and have been for Three years.
I'm 18 and only in the past two years discovered pearl jam. Just now hearing this song for the first time as I look at my window...all I thought of right away is how I absolutely need this on vinyl. The song hits too close to home and I relate to it here in Michigan. Sort of similar weather as Washington and we have the great lakes for some waves as well. Man such a great song. Edit: The visuals on this video are fantastic as well! The pictures go great with the words. Amazing job👍
My brother recently passed, and his very good friend said this song has been weighing on her mind. And its my brother speaking to her! I hope so! I hope hes pain free, and out there somewhere with my father!
This was the first song i played after my dad past away in June 2019.. It will always be the song i link with his passing.. don't think there will ever be a day in my life that I would not mis him.
I love this song so much, also it really reminds me of home. Wich I will be returning to in a week from today. When I first herd this song, I just thought of home, driving through The Smokey Mountains, looking out of the back window, sipping on coffee. Remember that moment like it was yesterday.
kingleonidas Stay strong. Mine passed away 8 years ago. I still miss having someone with whom to share my wins. The pain won't go away, but it will settle down and you'll find the way to live well with it and the memories. Just look ahead! That's how he'd want it to be.
My Father past away when I was 12 years old in my arms he was my best friend my brother the only person that ever understood me. It was a great lose for me pain that word can't compare to anything that you feel when a father passes away. My man it well be hard it well be very hard but think about this we live In hell he is at piece now and one day let me many years from now you well we him again. Live life not in pain but for him in his memory make your life such a great one that it well shack the very gates of heaven make him smile from above my man is the only thing I can say. Be strong bro it well be a long road man but do it make him proud.
when its nice and sunny out i get my old 73 jeep out and drive the countryside i have this song turned as loud as it will go feels so damn good to be alive.
Lost my dad a year and a half ago, this song definitely resonates and hits the heart HEAVY .I have played this song a million and one times, and will probably play it a million and one more. Thank you for the Awsome video imagery and thank you Pearl Jam for such an amazing heartfelt song😎👍 a song meant for sons who lost their father
My dad still here. I listen this song in the car right after i dropped my kids in their mothers house. I came home crying like a baby and hug my old man like i never did before. Think im ready. But im not
I can't believe this video has only had 100,000 views. I've been missing my dad this morning, beautiful video. My dad was a Capricorn, so the earth and water elements in the video, really resonate with me. Thank you.
Ive never been touched so profoundly by a song as i have by Release. My dad walked out on us when i was 5 and it affected me deeply through childhood cause i was that kid in the late 60s with no dad. What saved me was surfing my guts out and coming to terms with the hand i was dealt. I met my dad some years later spent little time with him over the years until his death in late 90s. Im ok now and i know in my heart its because of the music of this iconic band. Thank you PJ from bottom of this healed heart😊❤️🏄. And oh ya, still surfing the wave here in Ventura Cali 😁
All that reads this. Please check out Release 1992 Live in Holland on you tube! Its HANDS DOWN the most INCREDIBLE VERSION i have EVER HEARD to date!!! Ive seen Pearl Jam Perform Live 9 times but none compared to this early Live performance!!! Incredible!!
This takes me back to my days as a US MARINE in Somalia. I remember listening to this to relax after all hell broke loose on our first day on the ground.
Great job on the video....beautiful! 1st time I've really listened to the lyrics. Lost my Dad when I was really young. Eddie's so passionate hope he's around for a long time to come
Because. My dad ignored me this song so resonates with me. Every single day of my life. I chased so many unavailable man, Because I would have no idea what to do with a man if he actually was capable of loving me and I also allowed myself to be Ina highly abusive marriage because at least then with all that pain I thought and truly believed I was accepting the love that I thought I deserved so like I said this. Song resonates it is not my father's fault. But when you don't have love and encouragement from your primary male figure as a baby/child You are, or at least I ran trying to get it in all the wrong ways and felt the pain at every turn.
The cover of Fun Some Nights is the actual window that became the theme of some of my music. The same room I recorded Pearl Jam Ten in was the same room they used to be in. It’ll be Kurtains for you heheheee yeah my career was taken from me. I was so wide out I couldn’t remember how to write. Scream it out loud.
This song is hard to listen to. I had two dads growing up..a bio and a step. Sadly never had a good relationship with either till right before the end of both their lives. My dad struggled with depression and ultimately took his own life few years ago. A year later i lost my daddy to a heart attack. Growing up i felt so angry bc i had my dad who left me and a step dad who couldn't stand me when i never gave him a chance. It took me almost my entire life to forgive my dad for waking out on me and wasn't long after i did he left me again in the way u cant come back from. My daddy loved me despite what i thought and i never took the time to tell him how much i had come to love respect and appreciated him before his heart gave out. I couldn't miss them both more if i tried
Thank you all for your kind words and comments. It's been 8 years since my father passed away on this day and I made this video for him. He was my hero and I felt the images in this video, needed to be epic. At first it was going to be without the lyrics, but the song is so powerful, it's great to singalong to.
I find myself thinking of my deceased father as well.
Dude!! This video is awesome my Dad just passed away, Pearl Jam Is My Favorite Band And I Liked This Song Before And Now I Like It Even More! !
Giuseppe Mignano I cry everytime...thanks man
Sooo much love....
I pretty much hate my father. Never was a dad. More like a monster. Pretty handy he was.

He clearly says, "I see the verse in the rain" not birds, which goes with the previous line about words. Saying birds makes your story sound not true.
I love this song,l always think of my dad while listening to it. R.I.P DAD
me too
Me too.... R.i.p. to our dads ❤. I had a dream about him last night and woke up crying 😔, i miss him so much. Wherever he is i know I'll see him again one day.
Same. Rip dad. Miss mine terribly
Unfortunately I know exactly what you mean rip Dad 2002
My dads been gone 30 years now. This song still hits just as hard every time I hear it
+Kenneth Perkins
WOW I listen to this song just for that. My dad passed 32 years ago.
41 years
Whenever I am feeling depressed, I put this song on for some reason and it always makes me cry.
hits hard indeed, 12 years...
My dad died in 86 when I was 7 my mom in 92 when I was 12 and inwas sent to live with my grandmother one day I was listening to this on my walkman and I look up and see hundreds of monarch butterflies covering the tops of the trees in front of my grandma's house
I love this song. You can really hear the emotion in Eddie's voice
I don't know what made me decide to click on this lyric video for Release, but it's the best decision I made today. Well done, real nice work.
I lost my father two days ago. This will forever be my message and dedication to him. The pain is overwhelming still right now
I use this song as my release from sin, God is my dad. Yesterday I found the Holy Spirit and everything has changed, I’m released from the chains of sin
GIVES ME STRENGTH WHEN I AM TRULY WEAK!!!
Missing my Daddy... he came to visit me in my dreams... I’ll leave the light on pops...
Wow. What a profoundly powerful comment. I guess I somehow got here this day, this minute just to read that. That got me. Miss mine too.
I love it when my dad comes to see me in my dreams
Hands down the most beautiful lyric video on TH-cam thank you so much shed a tear at the end then read your comment on your father and now i appreciate it even more. Always remember that he will be with you untill one day you meet again. Salute

Sorry for your loss
That’s where I discovered this song 🎵 and be listening 👂🏿 ever since it really caught my ear 👂🏿 I’m like Dammm that’s a beautiful ass song 🤦🏾♂️ 2024
It’s been 2 years my dad passed to a new life. Thank you for creating this wonderful video for this wonderful song.
Sorry for your loss
My father, if he can, will be coming home with hospice in the next few days. Thank you for this one.
Is he still around?
@@jawnjawn8404 No. He was unable to come home. He passed in December, probably a day or two after I left this comment.
This song... I like it a lot and enjoy singing to it. I have my own bad history with my father. He disowned me and grew I to hate him. He wasn't always around as I grew up.

Miss my dad so much when i hear this epic song. Love you dad see ya in heaven when its my time🙏
Just brilliant! Took me years to find this, tucked away at the end of the album. Found after my dad died ..... perfect timing ! :-/
So sorry Andrew to here about your father stay 💪 brother
Sorry for your loss
Beautiful. There needs to be more music videos like this on youtube.
Such an amazing song! When i Heard it in Out of the Furnace, I was like: ´Amazing dude!´Pearl Jam is legendary, they are the kings!
This was my goodbye song to my dad. I did not know him very well in life but i now know him in death, because he walks beside me. After his death I walked a very dangerous path leading up to drugs and alcohol, I shaved my head not knowing that our hair in my culture is sacred and our connection to Spirit.

My Father passed on Wednesday haven’t been able to stop playing this RIP Dad 💙
I'm so sorry. I lost my Mom in 2018. It still hurts. It gets easier. But never goes away. I remember that fresh pain.
@@melaniewood3506 thank you so much for the kind words
@@systemofadownfan1990 You are very welcome. I wish you the best and the fondest memories of your Dad.
Stay strong
My brother recently passed, and his very good friend said this song has been weighing on her mind. And its my brother speaking to her! I hope so! I hope hes pain free, and out there somewhere with my father!

My dad passed away about a month ago! ! Listening to this song makes me cry!!
kingleonidas Stay strong. Mine passed away 8 years ago. I still miss having someone with whom to share my wins.
The pain won't go away, but it will settle down and you'll find the way to live well with it and the memories. Just look ahead! That's how he'd want it to be.
My Father past away when I was 12 years old in my arms he was my best friend my brother the only person that ever understood me. It was a great lose for me pain that word can't compare to anything that you feel when a father passes away. My man it well be hard it well be very hard but think about this we live In hell he is at piece now and one day let me many years from now you well we him again. Live life not in pain but for him in his memory make your life such a great one that it well shack the very gates of heaven make him smile from above my man is the only thing I can say. Be strong bro it well be a long road man but do it make him proud.
It’s ok to cry... Your pain is just intense love for your dad....
Gotta day one of the best lyric videos I have seen. Really added to the feeling of the song
This song came on the radio while taking my dad to hospital for radiation. He died this year, will always remind me of him.
Thank you 🙏 I can’t even write the words because it’s too long of a story & too painful to at this point but this video changed my life today.
Still powerful, still beautiful, still cathartic -- after all these years. 😊
when its nice and sunny out i get my old 73 jeep out and drive the countryside i have this song turned as loud as it will go feels so damn good to be alive.
phenomenal imagery - release me
Thank You, Eddie, for showing me what my Dad tried to tell me! God Bless Your Soul
After years in the game, You make another powerful "deep" hit song!! The emotions make the hairs on my back stand up!! Great job!!
It’s no wonder I fell in love with this singer all those years ago. Right to my ♥️
This one of the great songs in my life that I can only listen to by myself because I will cry everytime
Lost my dad a year and a half ago, this song definitely resonates and hits the heart HEAVY .I have played this song a million and one times, and will probably play it a million and one more.

My dad ignored me this song so resonates with me. Every single day of my life. I chased so many unavailable man, Because I would have no idea what to do with a man if he actually was capable of loving me and I also allowed myself to be Ina highly abusive marriage because at least then with all that pain I thought and truly believed I was accepting the love that I thought I deserved so like I said this. Song resonates it is not my father's fault. But when you don't have love and encouragement from your primary male figure as a baby/child You are, or at least I ran trying to get it in all the wrong ways and felt the pain at every turn.
truly beautiful
Such a beautiful powerful song Eddie's voice oohhh my goodness, thank you for the lyrics 💗🤘✌️
Best song ever and a beautiful video.
Beautiful tribute. From a fellow son of a fallen father.
The cover of Fun Some Nights is the actual window that became the theme of some of my music. The same room I recorded Pearl Jam Ten in was the same room they used to be in. It’ll be Kurtains for you heheheee yeah my career was taken from me. I was so wide out I couldn’t remember how to write. Scream it out loud.
Been listening to this for 20 years or better this n Temple of the Dog was the best vocals EVER!!

Very well done Giuseppe. Beautiful images to such a powerful song ❣
Thankyou- what more needs to be said. You created a great match to a powerful song. I lost my Dad. I get it!
