Pearl Jam - 'Just Breathe' (2009)


I haven't had much chance to listen to music this last month... Since I followed Shellhunter to Dubai, I've spent most days looking after our daughter and the evenings when Shellhunter is at work I'm watching TV shows that I've downloaded...
My preference is for American crime shows and a lot of them end with a random song most of which I've never heard of. A couple of weeks back I was watching an episode of 'The Blacklist' and a song came on with a very recognisable voice so I shazammed it. Then this evening I was watching 'Castle' and the same song came on at the end...
Eddie Vedder's voice just gives me goosebumps when he sings the slower numbers that Pearl Jam excel at... 'Sirens' is probably my favourite slow 'un but there are countless others...


COVER NERD SPECIAL


Willie Nelson covered the song on his 2012 album 'Heroes' so I've included it for no reason other than I like covers. Oh and it's pretty good too.

Great track by a great band. The Willie Nelson version shows how good the lyrics are good. Nice one.
