Jerry Hannan "Society"

[@knownaigm]

Vedder did an amazing job with this song but I can't thank Hannan enough for writing it. This is one of those songs that has moved me more than I can describe.

[@djstock02]

Amen brother/sister.

[@forestdweller9794]

indeed

[@alexlee8513]

" society, you're a crazy breed i hope you're not lonely without me " .... hauntingly beautiful ....

[@SasquatchGirlSandraRainsDeBusk]

Yes, it is. The movie was so sad, too

[@jordanm756]

one of the best songs ever written. society is in such a mess right now. i now understand why supertramp wanted out. to smart for this way of living.

[@AquaticVampire]

This is... Just my heart song...... No words. This song. This movie........... All you people come talk to me in my house because I hate the internet unless it leads me here.

[@thenoob9857]

This song it really makes you think... We live in a society

[@guitaristssuck8979]

Unfortunately

[@selinabegum4418]

Had no idea this was a cover by Vedder, and I’ve been a fan of Into the Wild since I first saw it many years ago. Only discovered this was a cover and Hard Sun was originally by Indio! Eddie did a great job on both, excellent song choices for the soundtrack

[@davidjasonsteiner5951]

Selina Begum same here...with both songs!

[@domrafones]

But never forget that he changed the lyrics of Hard Sun. Which made Indio angry.

[@BrenAGC]

Losing my job because my sales aren't high enough. "Not a team player". It was inevitable, I'm not going to fool people into paying for more than they need. Just because the rules are written, doesn't mean playing by them makes you moral.

[@Hertsgooner123]

Shame on your employers - sounds like you will leave with your values (good) intact

[@maxwmusic8276]

Good luck on finding your path👍

[@michalstolarczykKRK]

You did good My Friend. Hope you've already found better job. Good luck !

[@kunglao7694]

Fuck the system ! Be a HUMAN!

[@reginaldsmithers3468]

Sounds like you know why I never could make it in sales. Don't worry, there's always some cunt willing to take your place.

[@chenolean46]

This is the BEST song ever, thanks so much Jerry Hannan !

[@TheCoasterDoctor]

I love this song.

[@FeelTheSmasH]

Hannan recorded his own song, "Society" with Pearl Jam’s Eddie Vedder, which is featured in Sean Penn’s film Into the Wild. “I Thought I Was You”, written by Jerry and brother Sean Hannan also plays in Into the Wild.

[@eden-ski]

lovely. gives me chills every time I listen

[@wookie20f]

Jerry's is the best.

[@caiochagas00]

This solo is wonderfully beautiful

[@John.Skelton]

I HAD NO IDEA THIS WAS ORIGINALLY JERRY HANNA'S SONG! I NEVER KNEW EDDIE VEDDER'S WAS JUST A COVER!

[@ashleydavidson166]

❤❤❤

[@dogoboi]

He's playing where I work at the weekend, cant wait!

[@wilsouza5685]

irado irmão! (amazing bro)

[@satanyanko]

This verson is different from the one on The Ligh Gets Brighter, may I know where this version is from? It's beautiful.

[@festermann]

Hi there - it is Jerry Hannan's version, you should be able to get it on iTunes. Happy Week!

[@festermann]

it's on his album also called society - cover the same as displayed : )

[@satanyanko]

@@festermann Sorry for my late reply and thank you for answering my question! I indeed found it on iTunes as a single. 🙏 Have a great day! :)

[@ArleshMaharjan]

Eddie Vedder brought me here. love the lyrics. :)

[@therealmbassy]

as far as i understand the version on the film soundtrack is original version, meaning first released version. third take i guess. hannan wrote it for the 2007 film and played it together with eddie in the studio. this version by hannan was recorded later, 2013. correct me if i'm wrong here, just seems like many here are under the impression that this is the original version and the film version a cover, when it was actually a collaboration.

[@richardmoulding2495]

this note should be pinned to the top of the comments!

[@reallymanas]

Anyone in 2022? 😍🥺

[@biologiskt]

Great writing and Vedder did a great job covering it

[@---H_M]

love it

[@whodiisb]

"I am" brought me here

[@robertradamant1801]

+whodiisb ' Me too :) Such a great movie! This movie should be part of every childs education.

[@chodes1987]

Me too, absolutely loved it.

[@michaelmiller6574]

Me too! One of my all time fave songs!

[@xonidadso]

Con todo!!

[@robertgonsalves-ci2qb]

Just as good as Ed on this one.

[@inb77]

Genial!, Gracias!

[@nicklorentzen4528]

my Smartphone wanted to listen the original version 😄

[@JRTokin]

Blessings to all!!

[@solchaves9439]

Sorry ! I love you Eddie !!!!!

[@manutd728]

always thought this was eddie vedders song, I apologise Jerry Hannan, actually think his voice is more suited to the song as well, sounds better

[@stephenforbes2762]

No need to apologize. 1 because it's your (unhumble) opinion. 2 because Eddie Vedder is one of the best vocalists around. 3 because Eddie would have never sung the song with out Jerry Hannan's song writing ability. 4 because Jerry Hannan will never read your pretentious comment

[@rubenjov]

Yeh everybody's thought of that 😉

[@djstock02]

Original is amazing. Both have soul though

[@Hogweed666]

wow... i like this so much better!

[@MeisterEck]

'plane and simple'... depends

[@RawEeMk]

I brought me here

[@stephenforbes2762]

that's impossible

[@verlatenwolf]

This version is so much better, this song needs authenticity.

[@ashleydavidson166]

✌&❤

[@robgonsalves6128]

I like this one better than Ed's.

[@jialing7355]

Mm

[@272attwell]

"Charles Veitch" channel brought me here! ...Way better than Vedder.

[@2mlgames]

The Lyrics are awesome but i think vedder's cover is better :)

[@frankmick8683]

Vedder made a ton of $$ off this tune. He even made it sound like HE wrote it. Typical.

[@lestikurniasih1]

dibawain eddie vedder lebih perfect..

[@dionprass]

Honestly, the guitar solo is much better here

[@the318pop]

It's difficult to agree with someone who can't tell a ukulele from a guitar.

[@Jeremie_le_couvert]

So disappointed by Eddie Vedder, it's exactly the same song but not the same singer, I thought that Vedder had more sang this song with his interpretation but absolutely not, even the "solo" is exactly the same :/ I prefer this one now

[@ttleahy]

+Jérémie BN_Choco I prefer this version too, but I give credit to Vedder for not changing anything. I think the song is perfect as it is and doesn't need his interpretation. I think it's a huge compliment to Hannan that Vedder had the opportunity to sing this song to a wide audience and kept it pure. I'm glad Vedder kept this masterpiece intact.

[@Jeremie_le_couvert]

Yes, finally I agree

[@stephenforbes2762]

I'm sure Vedder is really concerned with your disappointment...God what the F is wrong with you stupid paople!!!

[@eddievargas7680]

But if it weren't for Vedder, you wouldn't even know this song existed. Paying homage doesn't always necessarily mean a unique interpretation. Sometimes, things should stay exactly the same.

[@layek9906]

We're crazy breed.

[@chatoXvato]

Better than Vedder's but Vedder didn't do a bad job either.

[@kennethclarke2133]

I am (Documentary) brought me here. Not that wank film 'Into the wild'.

[@TheSpartanTheory]

I am is amazing

[@cristiandiaz7353]

who cares what brought you here !

[@XerxesRu]

Brilliant.

[@fangzhenyuinca]

IMHO, I am is kinda retarded..but into the wild is truly amazing

[@emeraldsun8]

Just saw I Am and it was beyond beautiful

[@NuttyNu]

into the wild brought me here ;)
