PEARL JAM BLACK | REACTION

[@aaronandelise]

know someday you’ll have a beautiful life, I know you’ll be a star, in somebody’s else’s sky, but why, why, why can’t it be, can’t it be in mine. - Painful beautiful poetry.

[@jebadiahfyefye8994]

Some people are touched when the greatest live performances are shown to them. Some people notice interesting hats.

[@Reneg4deVakarian]

To be fair, this is one of my favorite performances ever - but every time I've watched it, I can't help noticing the hat too

[@dramacidal6998]

I always love to see the different reactions to this masterpiece of a performance. In my opinion the greatest live performance I've ever seen. The raw and incredibly deep emotions Eddie feels and the importance of this song personally is something that sticks with me forever. That being said when you pause a song like this so many times it keeps from actually feeling the performance and getting in deeper. But I still enjoyed your reaction and I like how you take some of the criticism cause most times it's nothing personal and you seem to get that and that's really cool. Wish you the best, I know this was a year ago and lots of views later so kudos on the success.

[@CanadaDan]

Kinda sensed a lack of appreciation and even a tiny bit of disrespect towards Eddie and how we was pouring out his emotions on this song and she was laughing n making remarks on some nonsensical stuff, the giu's hat n Eddie's facial expressions, which btw I had never heard anyone else doing reaction mention, we all seen it but nobody says anything because we all get it.

[@jhester23]

Thanks for the warning

[@Randomstuf5]

I don’t understand how you say you can feel his emotion and then pause the video before the moment ends, of all the reaction videos I have seen to this song this one frustrated me just for that simple reason not to mention the other stuff already mentioned by others

[@rjuleson]

​@jeezusmurphy I agree. The last few breaks for comments were at the worst times.

[@jamjar5525]

Stop pausing while he’s singing, especially in the really emotional bits.

[@calibansfury]

If you don't want her to pause during the video...just watch the video. It's a reaction video, not a "watch the entire video then react at the end" video. This is how reaction videos work. First time?

[@jamjar5525]

@@scottderechinsky9896 I know but I’m talking when to pause, not about not pausing at all. Pausing while the singer is still singing is bad form. When they take a breath or it moves to a guitar solo or whatever, then pause. I watch a lot of reaction videos and many people have figured out when to pause so it doesn’t take away from the song or the reaction.

[@kyresearcher]

Not possible to have full appreciation of this performance while pausing 9 times through it

[@kailamay2278]

True. When I listened to the whole song uninterrupted afterward, I heard things I didnt hear the first time.

It was a time I will always remember. Love Grunge, Eddie Vedder the scene, please take me back.

[@mollyprice1485]

In your defense, most people don’t know that you have to pause for copyright reasons so the video won’t get blocked. You might explain that and then when you have to stop, go back a few seconds when you start it back. Don’t give up!

[@kailamay2278]

Thanks love

[@michaelgilbert197]

The More You Know: .....1) Not "80's hair... this was in '92..... 2) Any "faces" Eddie makes when singing is pure EMOTION.... He sings with his soul and wears his heart "on his sleeve" so to speak... Just watch how he is gyrating on the stool as the song progresses.... that's RAW emotion. 3) This is grunge, and it's what this sub-genre is/was all about.... 4)Eddie Vedder is the ONLY lead singer out of the "GREATS" of grunge still alive. All the others have passed due to suicide and/or drug overdoses. Pearl Jam is still on top of their game. RIP Chris Cornell, Kurt Cobain, Layne Staley, Scott Weiland and all the others who left too soon... Thanks for the music boys and good luck to you Kai on your reactions journey. Peace :)

[@kailamay2278]

Hey Mike. Thanks for watching the video and taking the time to comment. I thought the performance was amazing. It made me so happy watching him lay everything on the table. That kind of vulnerability is rare to see. I think I'd need a pile of tissues handy if I listened to this song when I was sad.

[@babylonkid]

Just about the best song of all time.

[@briankachelman]

[@D0N0CIDE]

Someone else said to stop pausing the vid.. I appreciate reactions where pauses are made especially on the parts that i like because it means that the reactioner noticed that part too..(but back it up a few seconds after that to get back in the flow) .. and Yeah have lyrics on hand, try to know what the song is about going into it... though it's also entertaining to see reactions where people try to figure out the song as they go, but I think it's better if you already know and you have the lyrics with you. Good luck doing reactions.. do some more!

Try the band Faith No More. The lead singer (Mike Patton) has been ranked the number 1 singer in recorded music in terms of range. He has a range of 6 octaves. He is also one of the most versatile vocalists in the game. He performs in at least 20 other bands, and owns his own record company. I hope that sparks your interest enough to want to check them out.

Got a tip for ya... Reacting to the band TOOL will bring a ton of subs your way. Fans of TOOL are called the TOOL ARMY, and they will come. It’s a plus that the singer in TOOL (Maynard) is one of the best vocalists in modern progressive metal. Most channels start with their song The Pot as it is probably one of their least complicated compositions. The band is known for polyrhythmic arrangements which is a treat for those who write music.

@@kailamay2278 awesome! If you're into harder stuff, definitely check out TOOL. A band of trained artists that produce some really unique and masterful music. And they're a view and sub magnet, especially since their newest album was released a couple of years ago after a 13 year hiatus (the lead singer has two other bands, A Perfect Circle and Puscifer - you'll probably really appreciate A Perfect Circle). All of their songs are masterpieces (some truly are, some are just really fucking awesome lol). But TOOL's standout tracks (to really get an introduction to their style and skill) are: Vicarious, Right in Two, Jambi, The Pot, Lateralus (also an album title - look up the Fibonacci sequence relation if you're interested in geometry and nature), The Grudge, Ænema, Parabol and Parabola (two tracks that need to be played together), Fear Inoculum, Descending, Invincible (these three are from their newest album) - and honestly anything else from them.
