The video is a low-key drive through the soul of a father-son relationship that captures both the love and the sense of mortality each must face. One thing comes clear in both the video and the song, these two, although there is more than 50 years of age between them, share a strong and uncommon bond that. During our short phone conversation, I made one comment to Lukas regarding the song and the video….

But when the respected country musician took on a cover from the Pearl Jam catalog, it was only a matter of time before it came to our desk. Eddie then recalled getting to know Dunn while touring with Neil Young in the earlier days of their career — Booker T.

But she is now in nuero rehab and improving every day. It's day 46 since the stroke She can use one arm and her memory and personality seem intact. We have a long road full of uncertainty ahead. This song has provided comfort to me and I will never forget it. Yeah- I can even see the God angle to the song. My wife has overcome huge odds to get where she is.
We are not church going people, but the power of faith is within me. Something much bigger than love is guiding us and it's beautiful.
I don't think Eddie and the boys are trying to make any specific points here. That's the beuaty their poetry It's written is such a way that the message becomes yours No hidden agendas, but rather their gift to you to help you sort out your life. I thank them for it. Enotexa on February 14, Link.
There was an error. Wow my heart goes out to you I pray for your wife to make a full recovery, and isnt it strange when a song comes on at just the right moment Hang in there brother. For her, and for your kid. Enotexa sending my best to you, your wife, and family. Here I am listening to the song as I read your post and suddenly I'm chopping onions. Thank you so much for sharing your story. It really impacted me in an important way.
P-Dizzle on November 22, Enotexa agreed, thank you for sharing mike on November 23, Chaos80 on February 08, I was very good friends with guitarist Johnny Ramone who died of prostate cancer in I was at some of the concerts when the Ramones opened for Pearl Jam in in New Orleans and San Diego and saw the friendship between Eddie and John start and blossom.
Johnny used to tell me that Eddie Vedder was his best friend and that they spoke on the phone every day. Eddie used to fly to LA often to stay with Johnny at his house there. They were the best of friends. When Johnny died it was horrible for me and I'm sure it was horrible for all his friends. Prostate cancer is such a sad way for someone to die. I was watching Saturday Night Live a few years ago when Pearl Jam was on, and they performed this song.
I turned to my wife and said "This song is about Johnny. To go into more detail about the lyrics, here's how I think they fit. He is telling John he is lucky to have him as a friend, AND telling himself that although he is being robbed of decades of friendship with Johnny, he needs to be thankful for the time he has had. The truth is that Johnny Ramone was one of the nicest human beings I have ever known, and he was never anything but completely kind to me. Eddie is saying, under the celebrity or the rough exterior, John is just another human being suffering as humans do.
It is hard for me to think of John as anything but an Immortal, but he was not. Sometimes it was hard for me to tell Johnny that I cared about him, that's something that guys don't usually do.
They show it in actions. Eddie is saying that he wants to say it, and if he doesn't then he is missing the opportunity. He gave me many gifts over the years. Eddie is very generous too. But I think this refers to the friendship and the advice that Johnny gave to Eddie. Johnny was a VERY wise person who always knew what to do.
He gave me great advice over the years, and I know that Eddie asked his advice on several subjects, like whether to release that "Last Kiss" song. The rest of Pearl Jam didn't want to release it, but Eddie did. Johnny told him to force the issue and release it.
