The original is perfection, I agree. But, I think Eddie does an amazing cover. His voice and acoustic guitar playing are right on the mark. I really can't imagine anyone else being able to pull it off. I know a lot of people think Pearl Jam is some washed out 90's grunge band. But, I really think that EV comes very close to Moz's talent, both lyrically and with his vocals. He also has a huge, loyal fan base. You may ask why I am not posting this at PJ's site. Because honestly I like Moz fans better. I am staying here. I've made Solo my home. I hope no one minds, lol.
