Everything has chains...absolutely nothing's changed

I love Pearl Jam.

Since I first saw them in 1991 open for SoundGarden at the Concert Hall (Toronto),

To now, 20 years later. I still love Pearl Jam. The feeling hasn't diminished. In fact, it has grown... There's no mix of words that I can muster up to describe 20 years of music other than it has been the soundtrack to the last 20 years of my life...

Words are pittance when it comes to the feeling that comes over the audience at a Pearl Jam concert... The energy is simply overwhelming.

And the only words left after a Pearl Jam concert are, "HOLY SHIT and FUCKING AMAZING."

See for yourself...

Corduroy

The waiting drove me mad...you're finally here and I'm a mess
I take your entrance back...can't let you roam inside my head
I don't want to take what you can give...
I would rather starve than eat your bread...
I would rather run but I can't walk...
Guess I'll lie alone just like before...

I'll take the varmint's path...oh, and I must refuse your test
Push me and I will resist...this behavior's not unique
I don't want to hear from those who know...
They can buy, but can't put on my clothes...
I don't want to limp for them to walk...
Never would have known of me before...
I don't want to be held in your debt...
I'll pay it off in blood, let I be wed...
I'm already cut up and half dead...
I'll end up alone like I began...

Everything has chains...absolutely nothing's changed
