Lost my Dad tonight. Had to listen to this immediately. “..that this is just goodbye for now.”

[@kristophermiller7895]

God bless you, my friend. It's only good bye for now. ❤

[@christopherconnelly6912]

I miss my dad.

[@richardwillmarth4446]

Same. Played this at his wake in '09

[@ericmorgan391]

And he waits for you...

[@BIGEVILCHEVELLE]

Me too

[@kylewhiteford1240]

Me too

[@marisantana7137]

Me too

[@OandBcards]

I scattered my dad's ashes listening to this. Goodbye for now.

[@alwaysblessed2629]

October 17, 2015, my son, just short of 32 years old became The Man of the Hour and took his final bow. Fought the monster known as ALS for almost three years and in the end won, was freed from its ugly grasp and grew his wings. Good bye for now JoelyD, see you later Son. I miss you always ❤❤❤.

[@John.Skelton]

"Eddie Vedder paid tribute to Staley during a Pearl Jam concert in Chicago on August 22, 2016, which would have been Staley's 49th birthday, and dedicated the song "Man of the Hour" to his late friend." 💔😢

[@sharonheine833]

I think of my dad when I listen to this song. He was a gentleman who loved his family and friends and especially my mom and I. He was diagnosed with arthritis in his 30’s, probably from having both legs broken in WWII. But he persevered through the pain, and worked in a steel mill until he retired. He was amazing, strong and a good man ❤

[@AFx3144]

May God bless you and your family and provide power and confort for you. I hope his soul will be with the Lord Jesus Christ.

[@ngadiminsrowot5399]

it's such an honour having a father like that. May the almaighty god bless your beloved father...

[@joshwhitfield9315]

"Father ruled by long division" -- breaking down big problems into smaller pieces.... "young men pretend, old men comprehend" - such a marvelous way to explain the generational gap in wisdom

[@eddaniels9880]

truth

[@melanie-oj6kq]

This song makes me cry my heart out. My brother passed recently at 37 of spinal meningitis. He was a navy corpsman in the US navy. I miss him so much my heart is broken. Till we talk again....

[@copee2960]

There will never be a song written about .........the bond between father and son........no matter the strain........i came to blows me my late father...after enough time i came back and said sorry..my dad was like " i won that fight"...silence...and then we both burst of laughing.....sorry dad, you were the best...love yer pa...love from the UK.

[@shannonbutler7563]

I just said "Goodbye For Now", to the love of my life of 23 years, the most gut renching feeling ever! I feel like I can't breathe! But it was necessary. Totally heart broken in N.C. USA. So thank God we have music, especially by Eddie Vedder and Pearl Jam, to help me and him, navigate through this. Keep singing...

[@mpeacock7696]

Wow, so sorry to read this. Prayers for your strength, from NC.

[@shannonbutler7563]

thank you for that support... And especially the prayers, I need them so. You made me smile,friend, so thank you, Peace and love all around.

[@mpeacock7696]

You are welcome. I hope you find peace and healing soon.

[@shannonbutler7563]

thank you...

[@shannonbutler7563]

I'm working on it M Peacock. The replies give me a smile and I do draw strength from that. So, again thank you and I hope you have a blessed day! "I'm Still Alive"😏

[@bayusakti5811]

I think this song teaches us to never take a moment with our family for granted, because one day they will be gone.

[@of_the_how_or_why_of_me__t8685]

Depends on the family you experienced . There's the family you're handed into and some of us have a chosen family .. for those in my chosen family they know I would take any harm heading towards their way , without even a word .. and some in my family that I didn't pick some know if given the chance and harm popped up .. I'd shove them face first right into harms way .. they don't take the risk .. they stay away . ..

[@Blaylock2]

My dad passed this week and I go to this song .

[@Rick-xe8jj]

This my go to too, may he rest In peace

[@markstafford5886]

One of my Favorites. This will be played at my funeral you can bet that.

[@rse1113]

This always gets me and reminds me of how much I miss my old man. I wish he were still around for me to take him to a PJ show and tell him how much he means to me.

[@Drucilla-bj6sr]

OMG. August 22nd WAS my youngest daughter's birthday also. Such a lovely person also. So much so jealousy drove fools parting with to inject her fatally with a hotshot. We saw Pearl Jam together in Mempgis, TN in 2014.. GREAT SHOW and for this memory I am eternally grateful. Pearl Jams music has and is keeping me alive in an ungrateful world. I love them❤.

One man with a voice that can heal the world ❤❤❤

[@bayusakti5811]

Tidal waves don't beg forgiveness Crashed and on their way Father he enjoyed collisions; others walked away A snowflake falls in may. And the doors are open now as the bells are ringing out 'Cause the man of the hour is taking his final bow Goodbye for now. Nature has its own religion; gospel from the land Father ruled by long division, young men they pretend Old men comprehend. And the sky breaks at dawn; shedding light upon this town They'll all come â??round Cause the man of the hour is taking his final bow Good bye for now. And the road The old man paved The broken seems along the way The rusted signs, left just for me He was guiding me, love, his own way Now the man of the hour is taking his final bow As the curtain comes down I feel that this is just goodbye for now

[@jonathantomaro6736]

1 year ago my brother passed away. This song always makes me think of him

[@IndependentManyUnited]

This song… 🔥. We played it at my dad’s memorial service and I come back to it often, in memory of him. “Young men they pretend, old men comprehend.” I wish my dad was here to talk through everything happening in the world. There was much I think he comprehended that I didn’t understand then.

[@Drucilla-bj6sr]

Those lyrics are some of the most moving and unforgiving ever written, in my humble opinion. God bless u all.

[@BarterBales]

Makes your heart beat

[@batuhaneker9946]

Still feeling devastated after Chris. please live a long and happy life Eddie!

The Great Eddie Vedder

[@andrielidasilvapires6501]

Don't turn everything into words inside the head... Some things are made to be felt and others to be understood. If you feel something you will understand it, but if you try to understand something that is meant to be felt (and automatically learned) you will not be able to understand it (or learn from it) and you will create a lot of words, questions inside your head for trying to understand it but it will only sink you for these words, they should never have existed because they deprive you from the truth, they make you get lost for words... Please, don't get lost for words... Be good, be ok... You will find yourself...

[@uAvengerable]

[@andrielidasilvapires6501]

I don't know how people can spend their lives (smile, time) in a so futile way, with so futile things. To me everything in the world is with a so wrong way that I just can't be comfortable in "just live my life" without trying to concert things, change things all around. It's kind of, I can't be 100% ok in mind if I know there's something of wrong... Well... Sometimes it's almost impossible not to feel wrong like everything around or simply out of what you always thought it would be, should be in a world like this... I know that it isn't just me so... One day, when I was feeling like this (and I was very furious) as always I couldn't hear anything that was being played in my player so, I turned it off and thought in what could I hear in that moment because, I did not want just stop to hear music as times before because I did not want to end up staying away from music and... After few time trying to find that what I needed inside of me Man Of The Hour was what came... What can I say? Well, that was the best thing (most certain thing) that I have ever made in my life (no exaggerating)... For those who have moments like these know that they always come back some time... For those who know to feel, need to feel, Man of the Hour has the cure for these feelings... After it started it really pushed me to where I needed to be inside of me, made me find (feel) myself again... This may sound just like words for those who are just reading to, it's good to remember that things they come just when you are truly needing to, when you are ready for, and it's not good to get lost for words, not even thoughts, but when you need it you will feel it right...

[@samuraisoul1043]

Andrieli da Silva Pires if you haven’t seen the film big fish watch it and you realize just how good this is as it was written for the soundtrack. I am blown away by their lyrics they truly are amazing. And it amazes me that someone who would have been quite young at the time wrote those lyrics for black. Also I get what you are saying I’m quite lucky to get that feeling when I listen to music and there is some songs that I hear once and just don’t lose the feeling or forget the feeling when I heard them first time this is one of them I understand what you’re comment means it’s quite beautiful .
