It’s been about 30 years since that performance and the band is still going. They released an album in 2020 and were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame a few years back. Their performance from the induction ceremony was great.
"Jeremy" is based on two real stories. The main inspiration came from a newspaper story about a 15 years old boy, Jeremy Wade Delle, from Richardson, Texas, who committed suicide with a firearm in front of his English class, at Richardson High School, on January 8, 1991, at 9:45 am. In an interview in 2009, Eddie Vedder said he felt that "he needed to take that little news story from the newspaper and turn it into something that would cause a reaction, turn into something bigger." The other story on which this song is based, involves a student named Brian who Eddie Vedder met in high school in San Diego, California. This student did the same thing, only he didn't kill himself, but ended up shooting a class of oceanography.
@@kailamay2278 hey thanks keep giving me attention bc I'm pretty...ABSOLUTELY no substance...'hey guys...have you ever heard pearl jam?' OMG....check me out on twitter everyone....yay...kids dying....catch my on social media guys
You've got to do another song from the Unplugged show called "State of Love & Trust"! It's an amazing Pearl Jam song and the guys -- and Eddie -- just nail it! It ROCKS!
This one was so good! I’d love if you reacted to a much later solo thing Eddie Vedder did from his Ukulele Songs album called Longing to Belong. It shows so much of his range and it’s such a beautiful song.
as much as i love this performance, I'm not sure this is the best way to be introduced to this song. its much tougher to get what he's trying to say without the imagery. this way, it's just beautiful, not simultaneously terrible. go see the official video or maybe better yet the uncensored, which is findable now.
Thanks love. I did watch the official music video after I did this reaction and it definitely would have been better if I heard it for the first time with the video.
it's a song about a kid who suffered bullying and was ignored and neglected by everyone around him. inspired about a kid named jeremy who killed himself in front of his teacher and school mates.
I had no idea about the backstory. It makes the song so much more meaningful and impactful. Someone wrote the full backstory in the comments. Man, Eddie Vedder is so talented and deep.
To quote Chris Cornell "sometimes you just gotta lock yourself in a room and a mic and just experiment on your voice" paraphrased. Anyway the grunge era I believe was that result.. just yell your heart out and hope it catches fire, Kurt Cobain being my favorite voice of them all. And the grunge era being my favorite of any genre.
You should react to Alice In Chains “nutshell” at MTV unplugged. It’s was right before Lane Staley died, it’s a beautiful and haunting song because it was his cry for help...
@@kailamay2278 His girlfriend died of a drug overdose and it started him down a dark path from which he never recovered. He fought addiction for years and in the end withdrew from his friends and family, he died alone in his apartment. Sad song, and you can hear it in his voice. Edit: But yes, taking a strangers word on everything is not wise this day and age, I would look up his story. Thank you for responding.
Watch them sing Animal and Rocking in the Free World with Neil Young at the MTV Music Awards .. that was probably the best and last great performance on MTV.
OMG! I just watched the video! It was so intense, knowing that it's based on a real life. Yeah I think it would have been more impactful and shocking if I watched the video first.
I learned the whole backstory and I just watched the video. It's so intense. I think it would have been better if I watched the video for the first time hearing it.
Seattle provided some of the best music of all time. Kurt blew everybody's mind then the rest of the world started paying attention. Music fans were tired of formulaic corporate BS. Grunge was the 90's punk. I can go on a diatribe but it would take too long.
Great reaction, you need to check out Led Zepplin (stair way to heaven live) or Pink Floyd (wishing you were here live) I think you are the right person to do so
React to Metallica song: one. You’ll be mesmerized by the music. Just make sure to read what the song is about on Wikipedia. Else you may get a little confused. This song will singlehanded you get you several thousand subscribers and a lot of views. It’s a masterpiece of a song and a staple of any reaction channel. But very important to read what the song is about first.
You're hot =) Please make many more reactions. Love seeing people discover artists, tunes, genres, etc. for the first time when I've heard this stuff countless times for years and decades. Gives a new freshness to this stuff. Good video, good reaction - keep it up. peace
Thank you so much!! and thanks for watching. Don't worry I have more on the way. These songs are magic and they really inspire me with my own music even though its not the same genre.
@@channelnumber73 lol hey, understandable. if she's a woman of a thousand faces I can't find this chick nearly as attractive now anyways lol the chameleon-look girls always scared me a little bit. they can look completely different and morph from day to day, and their attitudes usually follow lol
Wrong video to watch. Not a cute song. Uncensored video available. Suggest you watch video to understand what you're hear. Eddie could be reading the newspaper and that's all you from this message.

Wow! Thanks for sharing. Knowing the back story makes this song so much more impactful.
@@kailamay2278 It's worth it to watch the official video. You should react to it.
@@poiqwepoi
The uncensored one that is
"Garden"..."Release"..."Even Flow"...these are 3 great songs...the first 2 always give me goosepimples lol
Release live in Holland 1992 really shows the power in Eddie’s vocals
Hey! Thanks a lot
@@kailamay2278 hey thanks keep giving me attention bc I'm pretty...ABSOLUTELY no substance...'hey guys...have you ever heard pearl jam?' OMG....check me out on twitter everyone....yay...kids dying....catch my on social media guys
You cannot go wrong with any song from this show. Try Porch or State of Love & Trust next. 🤘
Eddie pretty much kills himself during every performance. He is legendary.
This is a real story about Jeremy Wade Dell who suicide in front of english class
This lady has no clue.
That's crazy! I had no idea when I did the reaction. Knowing brings this song to a whole new level.
@@kailamay2278 that's just so cray cray....kids dying....OMG.....
Also check temple of the dog with Chris Cornell singing too the best one is hunger strike- temple of the dog
"Jeremy spoke in class today", when he committed suicide in front of his classmates
In my opinion this is best live performance ever done by anybody. much better than studio version.
This song and that performance always give me chills.
Me too!!!!!
You've got to do another song from the Unplugged show called "State of Love & Trust"! It's an amazing Pearl Jam song and the guys -- and Eddie -- just nail it! It ROCKS!
Thanks! I'm sure it'll be amazing! Someone else recommended this song.
This one was so good! I’d love if you reacted to a much later solo thing Eddie Vedder did from his Ukulele Songs album called Longing to Belong. It shows so much of his range and it’s such a beautiful song.
Thanks for the suggestion, he really does have such an amazing voice
React to " Release " next. One of the best and most emotional Pearl Jam songs.
Yes wish I was there also wish I saw them live at all
Yeah I'd see them live anytime if they came to Canada.
Liston to last kiss 😭🥲❤️🔥

Porch - Live at Pinkpop is an awesome high energy performance. Highly rec
Porch

RIP Jeremy Delle......... love how he calls him King Jeremy....... saved many lives when I was in school, this song... One Love
you should react to state of love and trust, also from the same show, eddie sings the hell out of that song
You should react to "Alive", "Nothingman", "Betterman" by Pearl Jam next.
Thanks for the suggestions! I've been getting a lot of recommendations for Alive, getting excited about that one.
@@kailamay2278 "Alive" is the first single from their first album and is one of their best songs. Also, "Alive" is partly based on real facts.
Hey sis, you are doing amazing, keep it up.
Thank you so much 🤗
" Alive "and " Evenflow " next!

Scott Weiland for me.
I definitely need to hear more to pick a favorite but I absolutely love Eddie's voice.
@@kailamay2278 Eddie is a classic. Pearl Jam is just an amazing band. Hope you enjoy listening to the rest 😊
Respect to Jeremy and all the victims of bullying out there
The singer is so fucking gorgeous😍
You should do some of the Nirvana Unplugged stuff as well!
The video makes this 10x more powerful.... Watch it
The music video???
Pearl Jam - Alive
It's a must and won't disappoint
I've been getting a lot of people suggesting that song. I'm excited to hear it.
@@kailamay2278 Hope to see a reaction video to Pearl Jam's Alive soon 😉
Check out the song Hard Sun by Eddie Vedder from into the wild soundtrack.
Watch Eddie truly engage with his audience. Porch live performing at PINK POP festival 1992. 🤞✌
Thanks love!
Just Breathe is my all time fav by PJ....deep song, live in my hometown Austin
Thanks love, Don't think I've heard that one yet.
Try YELLOW LEDBETTER or OCEANS
Check out Yellow Ledbetter by Pearl Jam. Sounds very different from Jeremy. It's a fan favorite at concerts.
You should watch the official Jeremy video clip.
UNCENSORED version!!
You should watch the music video
I'm definitely gonna check it out tonight.
You should react to Alice In Chains “nutshell” at MTV unplugged. It’s was right before Lane Staley died, it’s a beautiful and haunting song because it was his cry for help...
It's Layne*
About 7 years before he died
Should I do a little research about the song before I hear it?
@@kailamay2278 His girlfriend died of a drug overdose and it started him down a dark path from which he never recovered. He fought addiction for years and in the end withdrew from his friends and family, he died alone in his apartment. Sad song, and you can hear it in his voice. Edit: But yes, taking a strangers word on everything is not wise this day and age, I would look up his story. Thank you for responding.
Try reacting to the music video itself it definitely captures the theme of this song and the darkness that comes with it
Please react Temple of The Dog - Say Hello to Heaven Live at Moore Theater / Hunger Strike
Im here for the eye candy
Cool tune
The drummer guys the drummer
Look up the song and read about it
What a pretty smile, you remind me of Penny from Big Bang theory
That's a first. Thank you
Society by Eddie Vedder!
Hunger strike with cris cornell is amazing. Listen to that next.
Watch them sing Animal and Rocking in the Free World with Neil Young at the MTV Music Awards .. that was probably the best and last great performance on MTV.
Awesome! That's a new song noone has recommended yet. Thanks love
You really sould've done the music video...
OMG! I just watched the video! It was so intense, knowing that it's based on a real life. Yeah I think it would have been more impactful and shocking if I watched the video first.
New subsriber. Have you done any chris cornell, audio slave,soundgarden?
Not yet! but a lot of people have been suggesting Audio Slave so I'm excited to check them out!
Check out the vma performance of this
Great song.
JAM PEARL
Sa-Roc- Forever
Atmosphere - Sunshine
Brother Ali - Own Light
Have to watch the video
I watched it. Made everything so much clearer.
I'm confused about Kai Lamay...all her social media posts seem to have STOPPED 3 YEARS AGO. What's going on?
Eddie vedder is a tried and true wizard
Facts!
Ed comes from the school of ..Jim Morrison...
Got named after this song
That's awesome!!!
You should do some Alice In Chains another grunge era Seattle band. Love Hate Love Live at the Moore is a good starter song.. 😎🤙
Thanks love. I'll check them out.
Another good song in this same story line is P.O.D. Youth of the Nation!
Damn you are 💥Gold💥baby 👊😎
Thanks love
Adrenalize Me by In This Moment.
Female metal vocals done right.
Awesome! I think this is the first song anyone recommended with a female lead singer.
@@kailamay2278 If you wind up enjoying it, "Roots," "Whore," and their cover of "In the air tonight" are impressive.
He had to hold back the f-word because he was on TV.
great song , great reaction. Love this song but still feel weird hearing it sometimes, what the songs about and all
I learned the whole backstory and I just watched the video. It's so intense. I think it would have been better if I watched the video for the first time hearing it.
Can you please react to Garbage song called Automatic Systematic habit
please
Seattle provided some of the best music of all time. Kurt blew everybody's mind then the rest of the world started paying attention. Music fans were tired of formulaic corporate BS. Grunge was the 90's punk. I can go on a diatribe but it would take too long.
This music is amazing! Why isn't there new stuff like this???
You have to watch the video. Way more impactful.
You watched the wrong version, watch the uncensored version
Great reaction, you need to check out Led Zepplin (stair way to heaven live) or Pink Floyd (wishing you were here live) I think you are the right person to do so
Thanks love! I'm excited to hear some Pink Floyd, I've got quite a few recommendations for them.
Vedder = GOAT
you should watch the video so powerful
It really is! I watched the video after learning the history and its really impactful.
Why was he emotional ?
Its about a boy who was bullied ..and killed his school mates
So sad
Try Go by Pearl Jam.

Like the video, adore you 🥰
Yay! Thank you!
Will,u be able to react to it?
I can't say when but I'm adding it to my list.
Have you heard Nirvana or Guns and Roses?
I've heard of both bands. I know Smells like teen spirit but I can't think of any Guns and Roses songs off the top of my head.

Jeremy shot himself in front of his class.
I thought this was an amazing song before I knew the backstory and it is just incredible how meaningful it is knowing.
You're so beautiful. 😍
Thank you 😊🙏
Wrong video to watch. Not a cute song. Uncensored video available. Suggest you watch video to understand what you're hear. Eddie could be reading the newspaper and that's all you from this message.
