Vocal Coach reacts to Pearl Jam- Jeremy - LIVE!!

[@texasseastar]

Eddie Vedder is one of those singers that must be heard live to get the full effect of his power and the way the music and lyrics shake him to his core. And the band as a whole - it's a miracle that they have survived all these years without splitting apart. I saw them several times live in the early 1990's, including being maybe 20 feet from Eddie and Chris Cornell singing Hunger Strike (Temple of the Dog side project) at an unannounced side stage performance during Lollapallooza. Simply incredible!

[@zyrt3c]

true! have seen him a few times live. but you have to be lucky. I had a show where he was so drunk that he had no interaction with the crowd, well the thought he did, but no one could understand a word he was saying. But even than the vocals where spot on.

[@justindyke2170]

Hunger Strike is a masterpiece! So jealous!

[@EMjFox.55]

Vedder and Cornell would be mind blowing!!!!!😮

[@RockandRant1]

I was there. Last minute invite from my boss. Barely got there in time and this got some of the last open seats that were being held. To say it was amazing would be the understatement of understatements

I don't think anyone else could produce such ferocious lament. He mourns this boy as if he were a brother. To think that the closest he ever got to him was a newspaper article. What powerfully expressed empathy!

[@Adam-oy4ix]

Seen them heaps of times. But the one I enjoyed most was a mainly acoustic one-man show by Eddie, in a small-ish theatre in Perth, Western Australia, just after 'Into the Wild' came out. Had great seats, about 20m in front of Eddie, at eye level. He had a couch on the stage and every now and then a dude dressed in a white coat would come on with a beer for him. Eddie would then walk into the crowd and give the beer a random audience member, go back on the stage, sit on his couch and play while he drunk his red wine. He played a heap of different instruments that night and a great mix of songs.

[@RusShpion]

Eddie was ill w/bronchitis for this MTV Unplugged performance which makes it even more impressive. Loved your Black reaction as well. Keep up the good work.

[@neilp8964]

Wow I didn’t know that. Black is my fav from this unplugged. I really miss this show. It was so cool to see back in the day. I feel all the grunge acts had the best ones…Pearl Jam, Nirvana, and Alice In Chains

[@kasimojohn2017]

Eddie vedder is the greatest rock star of all time. The way he projects his barratone voice with an organic release of emotion is unparalleled. The doors asked him to induct them into the hall of fame and perform with them on that night. John densmore said they would not perform without him. he has earned the respect , love and graced the stage with The who, bruce springsteen, stevie nicks, glen hansard, tom petty, neil young, coldplay, chris cornell, the rolling stones, R.E.M to name just a few and there are many more and in these moments he delivers earth shattering performances. He covered u2s elevation and One at their kennedy center honors ceremony and left the band speachless. he was asked to induct the Ramones, R.E.M. , neil young and the doors as mentioned earlier into the hall of fame. He has done all of this while climbing and jumping off scaffolds singing porch and gave the greatest unplugged perfomance to boot. If you doubt any of this you are just hating on reality. look it all up on yoitube its right here✌ children

[@ncdmedia.online]

Absolutely stunning, control and sings like he saw the whole thing playbout in front of him. Eddie Vedder, legend and super talented, the whole band smashed this unplugged. A song to warn you THE human condition and what may lay beneath in every, single, one of us. Be kind.

[@tinagilbert8902]

Dear lord I love that u did a little research before watching/hearing this!! It's such an important song and I'm so happy u saw this particular performance. That is real emotion from Eddie. In 1991, while thumbing through the newspaper, the article of 15y/o Jeremy Wade Dell's suicide in front of his teacher and 30 classmates in 1991 in the Seattle Times (set in the last page of the newspaper) pissed Eddie off. He was thumbing through the newspaper, full of political and celebrity b.s., etc and then came across the article about Jeremy shooting himself in front of everyone. It pissed him off that it was on the last page of the paper (as an after-thought/filler) and he wrote this song.

[@Cadinho93]

Eddie Vedder live is totally a full body experience since his voice is so iconic. He's also the last Jedi left from the Grunge era. Also, the entire album "Ten", from Pearl Jam, is a masterpiece. Every song is a 10.

[@djstevie69]

To think we've lost Layne, Chris, Kurt, Scott... So many, we need extra bubble wrap for Eddie and Mike Patton.

For the flip side of Eddie's voice, the performance of "Oceans" from this same Unplugged is stunning.

[@EricJSchultz5280]

I have been a long time fan of PJ and Eddie (as well as you, Rebecca) and have had the fortune to see PJ live a couple of times. The first time I saw them was on the Ten tour (with RHCP and Smashing Pumpkins). Not many folks were there when PJ took the stage, but I tell you I became a life long fan after Eddie's first notes. Hearing him on CD was one thing, live he is a whole other animal. Keep doing what you do Rebecca, I love your reviews and reactions!

[@Sunrazor]

Funny thing is that I listned to Pearl Jam growing up. And I STILL find things in the music that drives it forward even today. That I never saw before. I find that truly fascinating.

[@Shaun72]

I kept thinking this was an old vid of yours (thinking it was the Black reaction) 🙄 What a song and your so right about the emotional side of the song/performance, it makes a huuuge difference. It still has the power punch you in the chest ❤️‍🔥 I've been a fan from the start and this still caught me off guard at the end... literally had to pause and take a breath. This whole mtv show could've been a mess as they weren't really looking forward to it.... They SMASHED IT!

[@_msthings_]

He's so intense. My god he's beautiful and that energy he's putting into the song is ethereal and passionate. He's just this side of completely letting everything go and yet holds it right at that moment. It's amazing.

[@End_Orca_Captivity]

I bought Pearl Jam's 'Ten' album, back in the day and this is a definite stand-out from the album, but fast forward to 2023 and I do feel angry with Pearl Jam for taking 'liberties' with the story of Jeremy Wade-Dell. The song is pretty much a collage of 2 different stories. "Clearly, I remember picking on the boy..." was from Vedder's own past experience of bullying another kid at school and his guilt, and then there was Jeremy's story that the band did not gain any permission to use from the Wade-Dell family. The result of that being Jeremy's parents forever being cast as villains in the song (pretty much), when in actuality, Jeremy was well cared for and looked after despite his psychiatric needs. That being said Vedder's MTV performance is permanently etched in my brain. 😊

[@rogueleader4181]

Rebecca hell yea Pearl jam always love your reaction and analysis.I agree totally about getting into the emotional aspect of the song. I have always sung with feeling and emotion.

[@villaincorp7728]

oh my.... may I PLEASE suggest you go back and watch the official vid. it is potent and was the center of controversy when it came out. also, this song was written when they saw this news story in the back of a newspaper, getting basically no attention. it also reminded Eddie of a kid that he bullied in school, that also brought a gun to school in the class next to him (which verse 2 is about. at least that is what he said way back in the day in an interview... Eddie IS the emotion while singing. He is phenomenal!!!

[@Severinate]

Arc - Water on the Road - Eddie Vedder - Eddie performs a vocal piece in remembrance of 9 fans that died during a Pearl Jam show at the Roskilde music festival in 2000. Each vocal line represents one of the fans that died. It's a stunning and raw performance that only Eddie could come up with.

Incredible song, and what a performance... never get old _{just like Jeremy Wade Dells and all those kids who never had a chance ─ and the current human history in a making is a perfect example ─ and remained unheard too long sadly... and just like that they are an example that must never get forgotten}!_ Eddie Vedder to me remains one of the best voice in Music history still today: Layne _"Man In The Voice"_ Staley, Chris _"Black Euphoria"_ Cornell, Scott _"The Mountain River"_ Weiland, Eddie _"Rats Master"_ Vedder _{quite impressive the fact the four of them are all from the Grunge golden era}_ and Michael _"The Last Rockstar"_ Hutchence... in the exact order with _"My Dream Brother"_ Jeff Buckley _{whom I couldn't listen no more ever, right after a mourning tribute I attended in his Official Italian Fanclub back in that tragic moment of his and, just because of his death, my life},_ Mike _"The Voice"_ Patton and Freddie _"The Queen"_ Mercury on a whole different level without any particular order and forever untouchable, each for a very distinctive reason.

[@calibadgerdude6082]

This one has a very mixed connotation for me. I was a sophomore in high school when this came out, a bit of a weird loner and kinda sheltered from modern music at the time. That, and my name is Jeremy. I had people singing this at me and referencing it constantly to me, and I had zero clue what it was about or even that it existed. I hated the references and comments about it because I was out of the loop and didn’t understand what was going on, so in essence I was being bullied by what is an anti-bullying song. It wasn’t until many years later that I really heard the song and understood what it was about, and it was a bit of a chilling experience. This was, of course, long before the events of columbine so the concept of school shootings and violence hadn’t really entered into the public consciousness, but it struck me that all those kids who I perceived as taunting me were really playing with fire. It’s lucky I’m a generally passive person and had strong family support and love, otherwise Jeremy could very well have been me. So, yeah. Great song, great performance, but it still frightens me to see the parallels and what could have been.

[@sillymonkey725]

A bit of context, if I ranked all the albums I ever listened to by how many times I listened to them, Ten would be in my top 5. I've heard all sorts of versions of each of its 11 tracks. Jeremy is an odd case, I never heard a version better than the studio one (not the music video version, that one is very different). There is something about the bass tone and the multiple vocal tracks on this song, with headphones on it is a treat. I guess what I'm saying is if anyone has never heard the album version of Jeremy, they're missing out. And you are so, so right about the drumming. Pearl Jam still made good music after that drummer left... or was kicked out. But Dave had a signature sound. It's a bit of a shame that things ended the way they did. Love you Dave, you're in my HoF.

I totally agree about emotion being just as important as technique. If I don't buy the story you're trying to sell, it doesn't matter how on point your pitch is or what notes you hit, all that technique will be wasted. One of my favourite vocalists is Trent Reznor from NIN. His tone isn't great his pitch can be all over the place, but when he sings, you feel it in your soul.
