I've always liked Pearl Jam, but I keep forgetting they exist. Odd how I always scroll right by them on the iPod.
I loved the images they matched up with the "lyrics", here. FWIW, the (supposed) real lyrics aren't that much more comprehensible -- it turns out to be just another break-up, life-sucks kind of song. Oh, wait -- that's why I keep scrolling by PJ on the iPod. You either have to be in the mood for that kind of thing, or a teenager. I'm neither.
Funny stuff. The genre expands: Couldn't help but think aboutTamori-san, a Japanese comedian, who has made this kind of thing a small part of one his shows for decades: random sample
That is one of the most creative and funny bits of social commentary that I have seen in a long time. Why communicate something with your vocal track when you can just mush out your angst in unintelligible crying blather? So hip and modern.
"This makes the song unique as it has managed to become a staple favorite among fans of one of the most important bands of the 90s, and yet has no real lyrics or meaning that can be attached to the song."
