“I know you will be a star in someone else’s sky but why can’t it be mine” this line always brings tears to my eyes. Eddie captures that feeling so perfectly in that lyric. There will always be the one that got away.
I'm 52, I was in my twenties in the middle of a breakup of my first really serious relationship, sang this song through tears many times, lol. Still gets me in the feels .
This song was very personal to him, and it took a lot of persuasion for him to release it. You can see how emotional he is when he sings it live. Wonderful reaction!👏🏻👏🏻
I also read somewhere that the band was worried about him having to perform it over and over if it went on the album. They didn't think he could handle it
Man the lucky few that were able to be in the audience that night must have been blown away and left with a moment that will be with them forever. One of the most passionate, dramatic, soul wrenching, masterful and simply beautiful songs every sung. And it was live. Eddie Vedder is a legend. Amazing the power of music and how deep it reaches.
Every woman that sees this video, gushes over what he does to them. It’s amazing how he was seriously blessed as a singer and songwriter and performer. It’s doesn’t get better than this. Pure art and the way he transfers his emotions to all that listen is magic.
In every reaction I see, I also notice this, in women the effect is much more emotional, perhaps because of the lyrics, his delivery, in short, everything. It's just perfect, it goes straight to the heart.
the title of this video should be "how to fall in love with Eddie Vedder in a few seconds" 😂 But that's it, this performance is a real gem and we are privileged to hear the most beautiful voice in rock
Eddie was from the Pacific Northwest, the same place this genre of music (Grunge) came from. The way he over-pronounced his lyrics started a whole genre of singing, called "Yarling." Some trivia for ya.
Eddie Vedder has one of the best voices in rock. And yes, he’s very handsome. Though this performance was 30 years ago, Eddie and the band are still going strong. In fact, they’re in the middle of a world tour now. To see more, I would recommend seeing the other songs from the MTV Unplugged program, especially Porch, and State of Love and Trust. One of their most popular songs, “Jeremy”, was made famous from the video they made of it. If you watch, make sure it’s the uncensored version.
@@FeelItRising I agree. I never get tired of watching it. It’s the perfect example of Eddie’s captivating stage presence, combined with his powerful vocals. I like it more than Black.
I think this is one of my favorite reactions to _Black Live on MTV Unplugged_ & I've watched probably 50 or so, some of them multiple times & sometimes multiple reactors at one time. Thank you for being brave & continuing the reaction once you realized you were tragically in love; heartbreak inescapable.
Never get tired of watching that performance. No one puts more emotion into their music. First time here Steph, enjoyed your reaction and appreciaton...
So much in the world is made for mass production. However, some things are so special, so unique, they will only happen once. This performance was one of them.
We been fans since 91 and I’m so glad you enjoyed it and got it they’re one of a kind never again…… I actually watched this live when it was on unplugged as well as Alice In Chains which was one of their best performances before Layne died…….
Eddie Vedder (singer) is from Evanston, Illinois, the band was formed in Seattle. Pearl Jam is one of the key bands in the "Grunge movement" of the 90s. By 2018 they sold 85 million albums worldwide and were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2017.
He moved to San Diego, California, when he was about 10 years old. There's some footage on youtube with his old band 'Bad Radio' before he joined Pearl Jam in Seattle.
This style of music is called Grunge. They are not southern they are from Seattle , Washington .This show was recorded with acoustic instruments instead of the electrical versions you usually hear on all their lp’s. I feel sorry for this newer generation that has been subjected to auto tune and the lack of live instruments like it was back until the 2000’s . You missed out. Great reaction by the way.👍
I get a lot of joy seeing younger generations experiencing the magic of the authenticity from 90's grunge. It's like you can see the neurons firing: "holy shit, THIS is what authentic music sounds like!" It's cool how good music transcends generations.
Hello Steph! Glad you connected with Pearl Jam and Eddie's voice. He poured his heart out in that performance. You can see he was living those memories on which the lyrics are based. You should check out the Unplugged version of "State of Love and Trust" by Pearl Jam! It's awesome.
Eddie Vedder grew up in the Chicago, Illinois area. So, if you're hearing an accent, it is probably a mixture of upper midwest/southern canada and northern plains. Chicago itself has a pretty specific accent. Vedder is one of the last big, huge voices of the 90's still around. Cornell, Staley, Weiland, Cobain... they're all dead now. If you want to hear Vedder and Chris Cornell on a single song, try "Hunger Strike" by Temple of the Dog.
Ed grew up in Evanston, Illinois, which is close to Chicago. He moved to San Diego, California when he was a teenager and fell in love with surfing and the ocean (which is a major, common theme in all Pearl Jam albums) and was a gas station attendant for a while, then one day his big break came when Jack Irons, drummer of the Red Hot Chili Peppers and friend of Ed's, passed him the demo cassette that Stone Gossard (rhythm guitar) and Jeff Ament (bass) put together of 3 instrumental tracks back in Seattle, Washington, looking for a singer. Ed spent one whole day surfing and piecing together lyrics, and came up with a Rock Opera called the Mamason Trilogy, that became PJ songs Alive, Once, and Footsteps, recorded himself singing over the demo, and sent it back to Stone and Jeff. They hired him on the spot, and the rest is history, Ed moved up to Seattle, they hired Mike McCready for lead guitar, and their FIRST of many drummers, Dave Krusen, joined to finish out the quintet. That was in 1990-91, 31 years ago, and they've been together ever since.
Pearl Jam started up in Seattle and were a big part of the grunge movement along with Nirvana and other bands. But he himself grew up in Southern California. Wait til you hear Chris Cornell. There is so much to discuss it would take hours
Yes they are from the USA......Seattle most likely. React to their song Jeremy (Uncensored) and Yellow Led Better and Alive and Rven Flow.....thanks aand some Morisette Amon
Pearl jam is from Seattle, home of the grunge era from the 90's. Grunge produced some very original music as well as voices. If this voice & performance got you try live performance of nothing compares to you by Chris Cornell from Soundgarden. Another Seattle based band from grunge era.
Steph o Pearl Jam foi uma das bandas expoentes do movimento Grunge de Seatle no iniício dos anos 90. Eu tive oportunidade de ver o nascimento desta vertente do Rock com 16 anos. Eddie tem o sotaque Californiano, mas ele tem uma pronúncia peculiar mesmo.
I’m from Seattle. His gen. He adapted a very Seattle influence to his pronunciation. You can hear it in a lot of Seattle rock of the time. This man exudes sexual heat from his voice. Js
Alright I'm to lazy to read all of the posts below mine, Eddie Vedder is originally from the Chicago Illinois area but then moved to California. He was put together with members of the now defunct band Mother Love Bone from Seattle who's lead singer Andrew Wood died of a heroin overdose from the Red Hot Chili Peppers drummer Jeremy Irons. The first video you can see of him singing with his new band is actually a tribute to the late Andrew Wood along with the Chris Cornell singing Hunger Strike.
Hes from San Diego ca. Just his way of singing. His voice is very different then anyone else. He was one if the big groups of the Grunge music out of Seattle in the 90's
EV is from Chicago area but later moved to Cali and then Seattle. I think his accent is Midwestern USA but listening to the song, it almost sounds like a tinge of Southern somehow.
The grunge genre is mostly from Seattle, Washington in the U.S. Each genre of music has it's own location where it began, like New Wave 80's music is from the UK, Blues music came from the Southern U.S. states, Hip Hop in New York. Koe Wetzel has a similar voice..it's like a clear and powerful emotional voice. He's a Texas country singer and very talented. Let me know if you ever want a song recommendation.
his performance in memory of his good friend Chris Cornell (who you should do a react video next "Nothing compares 2 u") was so moving and made me choke. watch amd react to that.
Eddie Vedder was ranked by readers of Rolling Stone as one of the greatest male Rock vocalists ever...I'm sure this must have been mentioned below, but he did write the lyrics of the song as well.
He sings with another amaiznggggg singer called Chris Cornell this is their song, Temple Of The Dog - Hunger Strike ...I think you would love it. .. actually you would probably go crazy for Chris Cornells voice too ... they are both insane ... love the reaction, hope to see more.
You should definitely react to "Hunger Strike" by Temple Of The Dog if you like Eddie Vedder's amazing vocals. His and Chris Cornell's vocals are what we call a perfect marriage.
Think they have 13 Albums out, I'm part of the Pearl Jam VIP and they sent me 2 new albums (records) and a couple books for free. Just an awesome group
Nobody is ever prepared for that performance, because it's a man baring his soul and being vulnerable in front of everyone, which is a very counter-intuitive thing in general. "Manly" is too often associated with showing too few emotions, when it takes a lot more courage and self-confidence to share those feelings and emotions openly. It's too bad that more men haven't seen this video, because there would be a lot more happy women out there if their men would only be so open.
This is grunge, a take on classic rock and roll. Eddie Vedder is American, midwestern accent, Illinois. Evanston Illinois to be specific. By way way of Seattle Washington.
Eddie Vedder came out of seattle he is part of the big four that came out Soundgarden, Alice and Chains, Nirvana and Pearl jam. Now if im not mistaken he isnt from seattle though.
“I know you will be a star in someone else’s sky but why can’t it be mine” this line always brings tears to my eyes. Eddie captures that feeling so perfectly in that lyric. There will always be the one that got away.
absolutely! this line is what gives me chills EVERYTIME. I think we all have someone in mind when he sings that beautiful line.
Well said ,peace and love
Every one of us goes through a break up that absolutely devastates us. This was about his.
One of the best lyrics ever.
I'm 52, I was in my twenties in the middle of a breakup of my first really serious relationship, sang this song through tears many times, lol. Still gets me in the feels .

I also read somewhere that the band was worried about him having to perform it over and over if it went on the album. They didn't think he could handle it
They never officially released it. It became popular due to the album's success. Radio stations played it due to overwhelming requests.

Every woman starts with the fanning themselves or by patting their hearts
the title of this video should be "how to fall in love with Eddie Vedder in a few seconds" 😂 But that's it, this performance is a real gem and we are privileged to hear the most beautiful voice in rock
hi my mom says I look like eddie vedder
@@esdrasmanrique6457 Sing like him too and you might have a winning ticket.

One of the best reactions to this song i have seen. I loved it.
Never get tired of watching that performance. No one puts more emotion into their music. First time here Steph, enjoyed your reaction and appreciaton...
I've seen this video a thousand times and dozens of reactions to it, it brings me to tears 80% of the time, conservatively.
So much in the world is made for mass production. However, some things are so special, so unique, they will only happen once. This performance was one of them.
We been fans since 91 and I’m so glad you enjoyed it and got it they’re one of a kind never again…… I actually watched this live when it was on unplugged as well as Alice In Chains which was one of their best performances before Layne died…….
I'm just here to watch people discover this band. I always enjoy it.
Great reaction girl! I think you should react to Alive by Pearl Jam.

Used to run into Vetter, smashing pumpkins -lived down my street- and Al Jourgensen at Waxtrax. I miss my youth for this and many other reasons.
If you want to dive into more PJ, check out the Unplugged performances of Oceans, Jeremy, Porch, it State of Love and Trust.
Thank you for sharing SG. Keep up the hard work, talent, personality, and drive.

And listening to it on analogue cassette tape gave it warmth like a vinyl record
I'm glad you reacted to Pearl Jam. They're my favourite grunge band.
I forgot to mention that he was one of the
bands that started the Seattle “Grunge” genre.
Hello Steph! Glad you connected with Pearl Jam and Eddie's voice. He poured his heart out in that performance. You can see he was living those memories on which the lyrics are based. You should check out the Unplugged version of "State of Love and Trust" by Pearl Jam! It's awesome.
What a great concert and reaction. All is wonderfull.
Greatest band of all time.
I get that feeling back of first listening to this exact video when I see the reaction of someone who has never witnessed it. Chills every time.
I learnt how to feel a song with this one thankyou pj
Congrats, you saw the very best live performance in history 👌🏼
Even Flow the official video is the next Pearl Jam one to watch. Peace from New Zealand
Yes hes amazing ❤
the greatest grunge band to come out of the Seattle scene, IMO!!
One of my favorite songs of all time.
My favorite song, band and singer.
They call Eddie`s style of singing Yarling! I personally think He Is the King of all the Grunge singers coming out of Seattle!

Great reaction to one of my favorites. Subscribed. Tnx!
Yes they are from the USA......Seattle most likely.
React to their song Jeremy (Uncensored) and Yellow Led Better and Alive and Rven Flow.....thanks aand some Morisette Amon
amazing that some people are hearing this song for the first time
It is amazing that the band was not going to release this song. They did not want to play it live as well. It hurt Eddie that much
I think the speed of the video is faster than it should... anyway, great reaction to my favorite song ever.
Pearl jam is from Seattle, home of the grunge era from the 90's. Grunge produced some very original music as well as voices. If this voice & performance got you try live performance of nothing compares to you by Chris Cornell from Soundgarden. Another Seattle based band from grunge era.
I Love You and Your Reactions Baby ❤️💯❤️
Eddie is originally from Chicago then San Diego then Seattle where Pearl Jam originally started
Steph o Pearl Jam foi uma das bandas expoentes do movimento Grunge de Seatle no iniício dos anos 90. Eu tive oportunidade de ver o nascimento desta vertente do Rock com 16 anos. Eddie tem o sotaque Californiano, mas ele tem uma pronúncia peculiar mesmo.

He’s from Chicago And went to Cali Ave then To Seattle where he met the guys

That’s pretty much it. Very unique voice. Lots of voice control. Tight.
You should do uncensored version of the song Jeremy by Pearl Jam!! It’s a must listen!
Ed is all passion and his voice is soothing. I recommend Release, Inside Job, Just Breathe, Given to Fly, Oceans..I always prefer live PJ.
Eddie my man, if that song doesn't get her back, she's gone for good.
EV is from Chicago area but later moved to Cali and then Seattle. I think his accent is Midwestern USA but listening to the song, it almost sounds like a tinge of Southern somehow.
grunge never die! thx kyu...
Great reaction and so beautiful song👍

Grunge...complete emotional soulful singing era ever

It's Grunge. Pearl Jam was part of the "grunge music movement" primarily in Seattle.
But, Eddie Vedder was from San Diego.

Tem que ver outras músicas do Pearl Jam, tem muita música boa, uma boa e totalmente diferente de "Black" é "Do the evolution"
1:23 I feel you girl! And I'm a straight man
Jeremy next! But the official uncensored video.
His voice is masculine that’s why you appreciate it . Great content .

From California to Seattle, Seattle was the Birth Place of Grunge
