[@BisscuteReacts]

Thank you for watching the video, It means a lot to me . I will leave this pinned message here to REMIND everyone that i do not have TELEGRAM and there is no GIVEAWAY. Those you see are bot scams . Keep yourself safe and know that I would not ask for your info. ❤ ❤

[@munkeeBraynStoo]

Irl, I am Jeremy. It means God's Chosen. I never cashed out like kid in video, but I totally relate to him. Always been the oddball, the weirdo, the stranger type. I keep few ppl close to me, and really let even fewer inside, if you knowhutimeen, Vern

[@felipevazquez3395]

There are some songs You need to see the oficial vídeo not an concert, this is one of them and i can see some more in your reactions

[@lippy131able]

Love your reaction videos. This one you should do the uncensored official video. It’s an entirely different experience.

[@michaelbriefs9764]

Jeremy was a kid that was going through troubles at school and at home. It is based on a true story of a kid who killed himself in front of his class. The lyrics and video take artistic license, to some extent, and paint a picture of a kid who is sensitive, artistic, and good but who is going through pain -- probably emotional. He may also be bullied at school. The critical point is that the parents are checked out and they don't give him the love and support he needed during this dark time in his life. Now, that part is not accurate to the true story, from what I understand. I believe the real parents were trying to help him and were communicating/supporting but something made the kid snap and he took his own life. You should see the official video. it's intense. Great reaction, Bisscute!

[@danjackson1016]

I think the song is actually about 2 separate children. I think it's two stories combined.

[@thrashdagnarz8103]

@@danjackson1016 I also thought that too,talented writing

[@aarondavis2698]

@@danjackson1016 Yes, first verse is about Jeremy and second verse is the classmate/bully.

[@danjackson1016]

@@aarondavis2698 that's not true and not what I meant. The second verse is from the bullies perspective but it's about Jeremy. This song is a story of two separate children. One of them was an actual kid called Jeremy who shot himself in front of his English class and the other was a kid Eddie went to school with who once brought in a gun and shot a fish tank.

[@Mikael_Puusaari]

I always felt like it was a given that he was bullied at school and wanted the other kids to know they are the reason he killed himself and wanted to make them suffer knowing it, which is the reason he did it in front of them perhaps because I talked to 2 persons who in adult life told me they were close to doing something similar when they were younger due to being bullied, so I think of them and how many others there might be that thought of doing it too

[@robertsanssouci2093]

True story, Eddie Vedder was climbing the scaffolding at Riverport in St Louis. He jumped down right onto me. He put his hands on my shoulders and asked if I was ok. I was like YEP! He shook the hell out of my hand and ran back to the stage lol. Great show!!!! 🙌🏼

[@bradgordon3760]

Should have watched the official uncensored video before the unplugged version. The official video was video of the year and maybe best video of all time.

[@santiago451]

It got a little overplayed at the time, but you're not wrong. Helps to actually see the visual cues for a first-time listener, as well.

[@chefgeopec6255]

Yes, the video version makes it clear what the song is about

[@rickygoff3199]

Definitely 100

[@iSpitboxer]

No doubt

[@Iansco1]

Eddie makes some serial killer faces when talking about Jeremy in the Official Video. It MAKES that video.

[@lisaharrod8386]

Eddie has this gorgous, gutteral, vibrato that goes down like 180 proof moonshine. Combine that with original, soul soaked phrasing and razor sharp diction...toss in a howl at the full moon, and you get Eddie. The one and only...

[@ilovekobe994]

Eddie's voice is just amazing. I could listen to Pearl Jam on an endless loop just for that reason. The emotion in his voice and the messages in their lyrics are just an epic combination! The fact that he sounds this amazing live speaks volumes about his talent.

[@DanielLake-xz8qi]

I do mostly. I had 37 Pearl Jam cds studio imports and live concerts released onto cd.

[@ssacra22]

No one has to apologize for being fond of Eddie Vedder. Unique, and powerful voice.

[@BisscuteReacts]

[@ThatOneGuy-gd8jm]

"Seemed a harmless little [redacted]" I guess for some reason, he was not allowed to swear on that stage.

[@JoshSmith-wo7zw]

Jeremy Wade Dell he read the story in the newspaper then he remembered a similar situation that happened at his high school while he was going there but he wasn't there that day. So he heard about it from friends. But this kid that he bullied on a fairly regular basis committed suicide by jumping off the roof of the school. So he took parts of both stories when he wrote this song.

[@spaolozzi53]

Jeremy "spoke" metaphorically. He made a statement by shooting himself, having been neglected by his parents and bullied at school. You nailed most of it, just not the payoff. The uncut MV is pretty clear as to the meaning. Eddie's vocal is probably better here than in the studio version, as its raw power when unleashed is a force of nature. Probably helped along by having to compete with Dave Abbruzzese's barely restrained drumming in his right ear. 30 years later and Pearl Jam are still touring, with four of the original five members, the fifth member having been with them since 1998.

[@Nick-we9ll]

wonderful reaction to a wonderful song at a wonderful venue, Jeremy is maybe the heaviest track ever, made us all pause and think

[@BisscuteReacts]

Thank you, glad you liked the reaction ❤️

[@veeyazzie3957]

This is a great song & music video, definitely recommend watching the uncut version of the music video when you can. Currently practicing this on my guitar. Hope to see more Pearl Jam reactions 👌🎶🎵🎶🎵

[@thepsychophonic]

Totally agree. The official music video for this song is so so good (in its full uncensored version) that it's a shame Bisscute didn't react to it

[@thistlestalk3289]

I was about to write the same thing.

[@ToniMcGinty]

The music video is one of the most revered (and controversial) of all time. You should see the uncut video, but either version makes the meaning of the song clear.

[@smillstill]

Watch the uncensored official studio version, the meaning becomes very clear.

[@sumonjamal1653]

Eddie Vedder wrote 'Jeremy' back in 1991 about a particular issue that was not addressed a lot back then - teen suicides... school bullying... The song was inspired by the story he had read about a high school kid in Texas named Jeremy Wade Delle who had apparently killed himself in front of his class, apparently having had enough of being tormented in school and at home... Vedder himself knew kids in school who had difficult lives and couldn't cope. The music video made for 'Jeremy' in 1992 by director Mark Pellington was a powerful (and sad) depiction of the song, portraying a young boy who is the only one moving in the video (everything else is still) like he is living in pictures and the video grows darker as the boy seems to become more agitated... It became a huge hit on MTV back in '92 and put Pearl Jam into superstardom (which they hated... they refused to do any music videos for years after). U can see the uncensored version now, but back then, they had to edit the video... there was a shot of a school class giving a nazi salute during the assembly... and in the final scene showing the boy walking into his class, they didn't show him pulling out a gun and putting it in his mouth (the edited video shows the boy face the class and zooms in on his face as he closes his eyes). The last still is of the class kids holding up their hands and u can see blood flying in the air.

[@treetopjones737]

It's a rightwing myth that shooters are caused by bullying. For example Marjory Stoneman Douglas shooter wasn't bullied, he was hated for being an asshole creep to girls.

[@jimmyb524]

Great reaction! From this same Unplugged you can either watch for yourself’State of Love and Trust or ‘Porch’. Everyone here will agree!!

[@ricejacksonton9750]

I agree completely!

[@BisscuteReacts]

Thanks, glad you liked it

[@MadDogHoek23]

I remember watching this on MTV the day it came out, 30 or so years ago, and it is STILL gives me goosebumps, one of my top all time favorite performances!! It’ll never get old! Nirvana and Alice In Chains are two amazing performances but you can’t leave out Stone Temple Pilots, Unplugged either. Highly recommended!!

[@BisscuteReacts]

Noted ❤

[@gatorunleashed275]

Same here, my friends and I loved MTV unplugged this was maybe the best performance of them all. All the bands are talented though, I remember KISS was on MTV unplugged and we really didn't know what to expect, they killed it.

[@pianoekket]

If you love Eddie's voice, you HAVE to listen to his solo album 'Into The Wild'. Especially Society. But the whole album is gold!

[@kenburns2014]

30 years later and these songs still hold up. "Yellow Ledbetter" is another great PJ song with great vocals and amazing guitar. Live at MSG is a good performance you might want to check it out.

[@michaelbriefs9764]

Here are lyrics: At home drawing pictures Of mountain tops With him on top Lemon yellow sun Arms raised in a V And the dead lay in pools of maroon below Daddy didn't give attention Oh, to the fact that mommy didn't care King Jeremy the wicked Oh, ruled his world Jeremy spoke in class today Jeremy spoke in class today Clearly I remember Pickin' on the boy Seemed a harmless little fuck But we unleashed the lion Gnashed his teeth and bit the recess lady's breast How could I forget And he hit me with a surprise left My jaw left hurting Dropped wide open Just like the day Oh, like the day I heard Daddy didn't give affection, no And the boy was something that mommy wouldn't wear King Jeremy the wicked Oh ruled his world Jeremy spoke in class today Jeremy spoke in class today Jeremy spoke in class today Try to forget this (try to forget this) Try to erase this (try to erase this) From the blackboard Jeremy spoke in class today Jeremy spoke in class today Jeremy spoke in Spoke in Jeremy spoke in Spoke in Jeremy spoke in class today

[@DrMou93]

OCEANS

[@bighouse1695]

Amazing song! The official video definitely gives you a clearer picture of what’s happening in the song. It’s still relevant today. This video from the Unplugged performance was another gem. Great reaction Biss!

[@BisscuteReacts]

Thnk you so much

[@jasontragesser3823]

It would be great to see a reaction to betterman Madison Square Garden. Shows how much Eddie and the band learned to love and work the crowd as the band matured.

[@courtneyclark1258]

This song is about a kid that killed himself in front of his class because of bullying and this happened in a school not far from where in from.

[@aidenellison9317]

One of the few artists that sounds better live than on the records

[@munkeeBraynStoo]

Bisscute My name irl is Jeremy. Don't tell anyone!!! 😂 I was the quiet, keep to myself type of kid. Didn't come outta my shell until high school. In early school years, it was something if i spoke in class, cos I didn't speak unless i had something of merit to say. I was reading before kindergarten and pretty smart. Missed being gifted by 3 points on the tests. Had 1 friend all thru grade school but, he went to a different (Christian) school, so i only hung out with him sometimes. Lost contact after my family split and moved. Have had other friends but, never felt as close to someone like i did with JD. So this song, i sung a LOT. I think i was 12th grade when it came out. I i spoke in class, ppl listened, cos it was very rare. I'm more sociable now, but still need plenty of time alone, just me, the Lord, my thoughts and guitar. Why do i feel like I'm selling myself? Why am i saying any of this? God, i have no life!!! 😮😢

[@grampajim1595]

Eddy's Number One fan :) I feel sad that younger generations may never even hear of some old band called Pearl Jam and will never hear this once in a century voice.

[@santiago451]

Check out Pearl Jam playing "Porch," live at Pink Pop 1992. Will give you a better sense of what the band is really like when they're not doing one of their slow ballads in these unplugged performances. The ballads are great, sure, second to none, but that was never their focus -- it's just what everyone who doesn't know the group instantly associates them with, because this was the song that went mainstream. It's like saying Red Hot Chili Peppers are a slow ballad band because of Under the Bridge. Bring a change of pants.

[@bradgordon3760]

Epic

[@azja6666]

Yass!

[@davidwhite3181]

There song are often sad in nature but his voice makes them beautiful. This is an extremely rare commodity.

[@DanielLake-xz8qi]

Jeremy speaking was pulling out a gun in front of his classroom and pulling the trigger in his mouth!! That’s why he says try and erase this from the black boooooooooooooooaaaaaarrrrrddd!!!!

[@charleswilliams6236]

This song is so awesome with a beat and perfect sound for the ages and still stands up for the times of these days

[@rogerbianchini2982]

Bissc -- PLEAZZZ tell me you took Michael Briefs advice 8 months ago, and reacted to the official video knowing the story that Jeremy was the bullied at school, unloved at home kid who blew his brains out in front of his class at school ..... As MB said, it is POWERFUL

[@munkeeBraynStoo]

Ten is PJ's best album. Oceans is my fav song from it, tho i love them all. If you've not yet, check out oceans. It's how i feel right in this moment, looking upon your mahnificence and beauty

[@davidwhite3181]

Here we go again, we listen to extremely sad song with utterly heart breaking lyrics. But Eddie shape/shifts the music into beauty. That is VERY special and rare almost impossible!

[@TerminatorJuice]

"from one thousand to ten, in a second" That's a perfect description of that transition! : )

[@yonblek4542]

Swear he could sing the ingredients on a shampoo bottle and still make it fascinating

[@abrahamesparza01]

Just came from seeing them at Madison Square Garden. Epic show

[@Iansco1]

Love how Eddie almost slipped on "harmless little ........" even gives a little "didnt get me" smile after. Official Music Video, Eddie makes some creepy faces.

[@davidwhite3181]

Eddie is cool, kind and empathetic. Which makes him special.

[@neverwasforyou]

Jeremy Wade Delle On January 8, 1991, Jeremy Wade Delle, a 15-year-old sophomore, fatally shot himself in front of his second-period English class. The incident inspired the Pearl Jam song "Jeremy".

[@jvanceify]

I used to live in Richardson Texas and saw Jeremy grave

[@deviousraul]

"He's cool" YES!! that's how we describe Eddie Vedder

[@munkeeBraynStoo]

I AM Jeremy!!!! Do NOT push me too far!!!! I'll blow my brains out right here, I'm telling you, danmit!!!

[@artsilva]

It was a true story about a boy in Texas who was bullied in school and had a bad home life who ended up shooting himself in front of his class, hence the "Jeremy Spoke In Class Today" chorus. The official video to this song is intense but gives a clear picture of the story. Brace yourself at the end of it if you watch the un-censored version, it hits hard... the Censored one does too but there is one scene that is omitted for good reason and for general public viewing.

[@philrossi5917]

I love watching your reaction to this song! I have been listening to Pearl Jam since their first album debuted. It is nice to see someone appreciate the power and emotion this band offers. More pj songs...try Given To Fly, one of my favorites

[@BisscuteReacts]

Thank you, glad you liked it ❤

[@jasonsteele4642]

Enjoy watching your musical journey very much! Keep it going! Blessings!

[@joaofigueiredo823]

Glad that you came back to Pearl Jam, while this performance was great you should have reacted to the original uncensored video to understand the lyrics, it is based on a true story, Jeremy was a boy that killed himself in front of his school class.

[@jeromemotter4344]

You should also watch the official video. Very strong message. Tear jerker.

[@felipecampos3045]

check out "daugther" and "state of love and trust" next ;)

[@MrKrazykraut]

Definitely watch the uncut video

[@bigcatmueller]

If you watch the original music video of Jeremy, you will understand what it is all about.

[@jvanceify]

I'll let the flower for him and took a picture

[@davidwhite3181]

Eddie's tone is primal, it connects with our animal self. We all have it. After all we are all animals.

[@davidwhite3181]

There is a creative energy that runs through our world and some people are able to plug into this energy. And Eddie I think maybe the essence of this energy. I have plug into this energy in art school and for a long time afterwards and it is exquisite.

[@gaztaylor4178]

Hunter or the prey!!!

[@terrynorman9622]

The song Jeremy was inspired by a newspaper article that vocalist Eddie Vedder read about Jeremy Wade Delle, a high school student who shot himself in front of his English class on January 8, 1991.The music was written by bassist Jeff Ament. That goes to show that taunting someone relentlessly can have serious consequences. The song kind of reminds me of the song Hey Man Nice Shot by rock band Filter.

[@rabidDAWGfan82]

This was at the end of a year long tour and he had a cold. Unreal.

[@GALACTUS-WORLD-EATER]

Jeremy spoke in, class today.

[@Trvler7]

Having grown up in the era this song came out in, it had a big impact on me. My senior year in high school, 1992-93, we lost a few to suicide, a few to other forms of violence in my graduating class. At the time it brought our class closer together. This song always brings up memories of that year. Good and bad. As others have said, definitely go watch the uncensored version of this music video. Still a amazing song, video, and sadly still relevant today. Jadedspyder

[@CaptainCaveman1170]

You will love "State of Love and Trust" from this same performance.

[@ruidos38]

Very good reaction. I recommend you Porch MTV unplugged.. For me the most emotional performance of Pearl Jam and Eddie . Big regards from Chile South America

[@maggieshevelew7579]

Agreed. Incredible performance.

[@BisscuteReacts]

Glad you liked the reaction

[@brianforrester9670]

Check out 'Oceans' from the same Unplugged. So different, but really shows off his range.

[@Mikael_Puusaari]

It paints a quite vivid picture: "Try to forget this, try to erase this from the black board" Gives me the chills thinking of it 😥 I know bullying exists everywhere still, but it was way more socially accepted up to year 2000 or so, after that it started to be shunned upon more

[@wrum_wrum]

Yeeeeeeeah!!!! 🔥🔥🔥

[@richardbarton6146]

no love at home, no care, he was bullied at school.. and he exploded in a rage! (Jeremy has spoken)

[@Cassiopeia_kamm]

This song is about both a kid named Jeremy who killed himself infront of his class with a gun and a kid named Brian who did something somewhat similar. Jeremy was troubled but his family did care. The second part of the song is about a boy named Brian who Eddie Vedder had altercations with in school. Brian came to school with a gun and shot at his classmates. Pearl Jam seemed to be upset when the song was released that it was misinterpreted due to sensorship at the time (at least for the music video). The song is essentially about bullying and school shootings.

[@hawkaiathemutt1976]

The instrumental to this hits different.

[@audiesoares7963]

David abruzesse magistral,best drum pearl Jam ALL times

[@channel5o7]

Love your passion for Eddie. He's infectious. If you loved this, checkout: State of Love and trust, Foot steps & Yellow Ledbetter. You'll melt

[@laurawatters914]

Suggestion, watched the official uncensored Jeremy video, amazing performance and true story! Love your reaction, I love Pearl Jam and I absolutely love Eddie!! 😊💓🤘✌️

[@shellos8]

If you want to see and hear how Eddie is these days, check out their performance of Release at Wrigley Field in 2016. That's what he looks and sounds like today. Older but still handsome and still has a great voice.

[@overlord580]

Great reaction. React on Pearl Jam Alive ,next.

[@BisscuteReacts]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@matthewgoodA1206]

I love music very dearly but have no training or real education of it. Music theory, which is the advanced and technical side of it, interests me greatly even tho I can’t grasp as much as I’d like to. But there are a lot of books out there about bands and singers and scenes. They always contain tons of terms to pick up on. And I think Eddie is one of the more genuine artists. His heart seems so real and true.

[@Logan-ed4pu]

Part of me wants a 12 string bass because of this song. Part of me doesn't want to deal with changing and tuning 12 strings on a bass lol.

[@chrisjessop4073]

The unedited music video is harder hitting I think

[@davidwhite3181]

Socute...you must check out "Release". He will smash our ❤ again.

[@toddkindron8506]

Keep them coming:)) Great taste in music 🎶

[@BisscuteReacts]

Thank you, I try my best

[@seandobson6221]

Delving back into the journey of Pearl Jam. It’s a very sad story about Jeremy who was so bullied and felt unloved by his parents that he finally spoke in class one day when he killed himslef in front of his class. I had a friend who killed himself while on the phone with his girlfriend and it hit me pretty hard as I was also very close to his girlfriend and the pain she went through. It broke my heart.

[@ThatOneGuy-gd8jm]

The song is already dark but when listening to it for the first time and hearing "Try to erase this from the black board" you might not have expected that.

[@alexgonzalez-bi1cg]

you should also check "state and love and trust" from the same concert

[@CyberChunk77]

I think it's kind of important that people watch the video for Jeremy. It's oddly prescient for the current gun culture here in the US.

[@kentmartin9289]

Some of the lyrics to this song hit harder after more than one listening. If you watch the music video it's more explicit that he ends up killing himself in front of his class. Then when you relisten to the song, lyrics like "And he hit me with a surprise left. left my jaw hurting, dropped wide open. Just like the day I heard" knowing he is talking about the day he heard of the suicide, and "Try to forget this. Try to erase this from the black board" is talking about the blood spatter on the blackboard. Powerful stuff.

[@moonwind6303]

"Daddy didn't give attention, to the fact that mommy didn't care." That's so harsh.

[@user-fo2hk8lk1w]

Pearl Jam good🤗I still listen to the 'Backspacer' music album a lot.♪

[@stevenhardman8579]

You Need to watch the music video...it won many awards for it

[@miguelalvarado1440]

/You have to watch the original video of this song to understand better the song, is very... illustrating! That was the video which introduced me one of my favorite bands ever! I saw them last Sunday in NYC on 9/11 and they were PHENOMENAL!!!! Fun fact: I've seen them twice and they skip this song from those 2 shows :( which is weird because even when they don't play certain hits the show is still one of the best concerts that you might see, that proves you how Amazing this band is!!!!

[@garybarlow5447]

Bisscute, I would like to introduce you to Angelina Jordan, a Norwegian singer, who is my favorite. I think you will like her cover of Elvis Presley, s Suspicious Minds, and many more.
