Dozens of Pearl Jam songs and this is the only one they decided to include in the 1,001 Songs You Must Hear Before You Die. With the melody and lyrics coming after the song was complete.

The Walker Brothers - "The Sun Ain't Gonna Shine Any More" (1966). From actual brothers who didn't advertise it yesterday, to a trio who weren't related, marketed as brothers today. Tuesday, July 17, 2012. Sparks - "Beat the Clock" (1979). Odd band, interesting story, song that doesn't stand the test of time but is historically significant. Producer Giogio Moroder had ...

1001 Days of Music. Every Song in 1001 Songs You Must Hear Before You Die. Monday, April 30, 2012. Elliot Smith - "Between the Bars" (1997). I can't believe it just ends like that. I want more. Is the person he's singing to? Or does 'between the bars' actually evoke the image of a drunk's pub crawl and he'll kiss them when they leave one bar, but before they enter another? Sunday, April 29, 2012. Headlights on the Parade". The Blue Nile - "Headlights on the Parade" (1989). I think I like the B-side.
