One of my favorite Pearl Jam songs. As you were saying, it really does carry a powerful message. And I love how Eddie Vedder begins singing the song in a relatively normal voice, but by the end, while singing about evolution, his voice actually starts to devolve into something almost animalistic. It’s brilliant.

Thanks for the great commentary on the video/visual. As many times as I've watched it I had never picked up on the giving birth thing. Anyway, when they perform it live, the crowd goes crazy. At a Madison Square Garden concert everyone was jumping around so hard it made the stage shake.

Loved your commentary, been waiting years for someone to make a really good reaction to this song. Thank you for being the one to do it!

Thanks for commentary, by some reason a lot of people doesn't even notice the message

One of my favorite PJ songs ever. This riff is so great, his vocals delivery is perfect, everything. That video. Best of all time, IMO. Yup. Not much else to say on my end.

If someone were to ask me "how does somebody get woke?" I'd probably have them check this video out. It covers almost everything.

Still one of my fav music videos!

Nice to see a reaction to this. Wish more people would.👍

Todd McFarlane from Spawn comic collaborated on this outstanding video. Perfect mesh with the song. Thank you for reacting to Pearl Jam.

Good reaction

Pearl Jam Ten album is actually my all time favorite album. The entire album is amazing. Also.. Last Kiss by Pearl Jam, is a remake, but amazing rendition by them. Jeremy is deep.. Would actually love to see you react to the album from beginning to end.

The girl stepping on the anthill doesn't seem to get mention in most reviews. Take a second...

I always assume it was collateral damage from a previous war. what do you think it means ?

@@alexterrieur5800 I always thought it meant landmines from past wars still not found and can be easily activated. The daily threat of losing their live or limbs , Land mines make land unsuitable for cultivation, restrict people and their communities. Your interpretation of it can also be true.

@@adrianisawaffle_738 Yeah, there's a section in France called "Zone Rouge" that is littered with toxic chemicals, and unexploded ordinance, left permanently uninhabitable to humans. It's a carryover from WW1 that stands today and well into the future. Perhaps this is what that scene is referencing. Landmines are a horror of war that continues well after it stops.

I always took it that not matter how innocent and peaceful we may be, we're still able to destroy things around us unintentionally. But the again, those ants killed other insects for food and destroyed other ant hives. It's all an evolutionary order.

Try Quick Escape from Pearl Jam. Or maybe Sirens.
