To understand what that music meant to us that went through it at the time. We had no voice until bands like pearl jam and radio head forged the way.
We all saw her fall in love 1 min and 53 seconds in.
O álbum “Ten” do Pearl Jam, é repleto de músicas tristes, que em termos fazem parte de nosso cotidiano, e como vc pode sentir, parece que a música é algo que esta acontecendo ou aconteceu conosco, ou com alguém que conhecemos…
As letras das bandas de rock ou grunge, são letras do dia a dia dos autores, porém se assemelham tanta aos dias comuns ou msm incomuns de uma pessoa qualquer…
E é isso que faz sentido… pois falam de algo que experimentamos, que vivenciamos…
Está chica recibió una clara imagen de realidad. De cómo no siempre las cosas son como son. De cómo un corazón partido y destrozado aún puede sentir algo por alguien. La mejor cancion
Very new to this page and these videos (love them both!!) Black is one of my all time favorite songs. I’m 46 and I literally remember going to the mall to buy this on cassette and listening to it on the way home. It felt like one of those life changing moments that good music gifts you. I would very much like to see you react to Khruangbin’s video for “So We Won’t Forget”. Some very raw and visceral moments in this visual representation of loss. Keep doing your thing!!! Thanks for all you all do.
my heart has turned black after all hope is lost now that my ex husband remarried glad to know its healthy…you gave me hope. Thank you!
The biggest sin is to be stripped of all your skin , dropped off in a sandstorm , and getting so used to the pain that you decide its better than changing .
Some things cannot be mended. Some things do not heal. Some things when gone are gone forever.
Gen X the greatest…
Thank you for the breakdown at the end. It’s been 3 years and I’m still spinning but that explanation gave me a glimpse of optimism.
I’ve never felt so low, idk what to do. She was my everything and she left because she didn’t love herself anymore 
there were no fights or arguments that led to it. It feel like life isn’t real
51 here, was a late teen and early 20’s in these times. Saw them 5 times and they were all amazing, Eddie was always on point. Thanks for the reaction.
I gave up a long time ago on the world being anything but black. I learned to deal with it… kinda had to. It is what it is.

Please click that link or reply to any of us if you need a friend… you might actually get a real warm human hug if you’re local. Come see me in Atlanta and get all the most welcoming, accepting hugs you’ve ever dreamed of… I love you and you are amazing, yeah no seriously I am seriously talking to YOU… yes, YOU are amazing! Go share that beautiful thing that you are with the world!!! <3
I absolutely enjoy your authenticity
30 years too and I’ve almost forgotten her. But now I get to miss the memories too. Good times.
This is why I believe in parallel universes… Somewhere, somehow, we are together…
I’m not posting this for help, I’m posting this as a warning NOT TO TURN INTO ME. I was 25, and I was insanely in love with my wife. We lived in Hawaii, made love frequently, never argued, and life was amazing. Then I went to Iraq for 15 months. In that time she cheated, broke my heart, gaslighted me into thinking I abandoned her, and ruined my military career due to the deep depression about losing my world that I fell into. For 15 months I went through hell. Saw friends and brothers die, was blown up several times by roadside bombs, and yet it didn’t come close to the hell of her not being there when I returned home and everyone’s loved ones rushed to their soldiers while I stood alone with no one there. She destroyed me in every way a man can be destroyed. She moved on, married, and had children. Meanwhile, other women have tried to love me but I can’t find it in me to trust or be loved again because I was ruined. Every woman since has told me “they can only get to a certain point with me” and I don’t let them get any closer. I’m now 43, and even 18 years later the pain remains. I tried counseling but nothing seems to help. My life is work, going to the gym, and coming home and hanging out with the pets. Unless you want a life where you just wait for death and for the pain to go away, DO NOT BECOME ME!
That song is one of the most iconic pieces ever written! And I can so perfectly relate to it… having been in a cult and after waking up and exiting, I have not only be shunned since then by family and friends that I’ve known basically my whole life… but it also caused my marriago to fail and now I’m watching by two daughters being raised in that cult and there is notmuch I can do. That song and it’s lyrics hit so hard, because I often feel so helpless in this situation, trying to be a good dad, teaching my kids important values and life lessons, while watching them being sucked into the cult… it sometimes paints my world in black and every now and then I’m listening to this song that keeps my going and not giving up!!
Not enough people remind everyone that that last harrowing 30 seconds of the song… ISN’T PART OF THE F*CKING SONG. Go listen to the studio version, that’s all improvised (or just a grown man crying)
