🎵 Attention, Music Fam! 🎵 It seems like KZfaq played a little trick on us - somehow, English subtitles ended up under the "Finnish" subtitles button *AGAIN*. I'm sorry for any confusion this caused! To find the English subtitles, just click on the "Finnish" button. I want every single one of you to be able to fully engage with my videos, and it's frustrating to know that KZfaq's quirks might have hindered that experience. Thank you all for your understanding and patience as we navigate through this sort of hiccups together. Your support means the world to me, and I'm truly grateful to have such an incredible community backing me up every step of the way. 💙

I'm not a devoted Pearl Jam fan but this song is incredible . R I.P to all the Jeremy's that were crushed by an indifferent world .

All these MTV Unplugged performances were so incredibly in pocket - something really special and magical about these concerts

The official uncensored version is so powerful. Eddie is an amazing artist!

I want more Pearl Jam/Eddie Vedder

I have NEVER seen or met someone like myself who openly cries to beautiful music. I assumed there was something wrong with me when I cry to powerful emotional songs and there are hundreds of songs I have cried to due to their beauty ❤.

As a huge Pearl Jam fan, I've always appreciated Eddie's vocal prowess. But, it's great, for me at least, to see real experienced singers/vocal coaches explaining what an exceptional singer he is, in a way that your average listener would not be able to recognize or identify.

Oh wow, how did that not hear the unplugged version before ? Of course I knew the album version. It was on when I was a teenager all the time on the radio. Only later I got a better understanding of what the song (lyrics) actually meant. As a non-native English speaker I just enjoyed the tune. It was before internet was a thing so the story behind didn’t reach me at the time. Understanding now Jeremy took his life in class makes it gut wrenching and never as innocent as before. This version is vocally really interesting. Eddie takes it two or more giant steps beyond the album version. Get your tissues and emotional support cuddly toys ready.

State of love and trust song really shows how good his voice is

He was probably the most iconic band when I was a kid, everybody could recognize him by his voice. This brings me back. 🤔👍 Have a great weekend.

I liked your reaction, I lived in Seattle in the 90's, and saw Pearl Jam many times, and Eddie never ceased to amaze me, he lived the music and that was his charm, every bone in his body conveyed his message. Every performance was different, which made me want to see them again

Was listening to Ten, Pearl Jam's first major studio album, the day my parents dropped me off at college. I didn't know anyone so I just played Ten over and over the whole evening in my dorm room. I got a chance to see them live in Charlotte a few years later and it was everything I thought it would be. One of my favorite bands from that period of my life.

Hi Anna, you really need to watch Pearl Jam ‘Release’ live Hollond 1992! Eddie at his most Raw and vocally appealing best. You won’t be disappointed

I love watching Pearl Jam play live! Coincidentally, just the other day I bought tickets to see them in November. It's been far too long since I last went to a PJ concert, well over 10 years, so I'm very much looking forward to seeing them again.

you are really humble and professional lady, and now what you talking about All love and respect to you

Please watch the official video. It is truly a powerful statement. As always great reaction and a great choice in in songs!

I always give Eddie the credit to have the heart, compassion and humanity to write this song.

If you have never seen the video made for this song you might want to check it out. I think it may be one of the best videos ever made. No one comes close to Eddie and his beautiful soul. My favorite band of all time. They just came out with a new album called Dark Matter. Eddie and the guys are in their twenties here, now in their 50's maybe sixties and still are making great music. They get better and better. This concert is so special and I love to go back and remember those days.

Thrilled to see you getting back to some more PJ. 💛🤘🤙✌️

Dave's drumming, emulating machine gun fire, was just amazing, too. Cool reaction

Can I just say, there are very few more beautiful things in this world than Anna when she's being moved by music. Love these reactions!

One of my favorite bands from my formative years reviewed by one of my favorite people. I usually save your videos for last, as I like to end my day with intelligence, beauty, meaning and enjoyment.

What a beautiful soul that is so exposed! Bless you with this gift and burdon.

I sometimes wish I could experience this voice for the first time again. It was "Black", back in 92 and shortly after the record came out. The song hit me on different levels, but the voice ... I cried for the first time since childhood, in public at a club, working behind the bar. I just cried. No song until then or ever after hit me like that. And no other singer I'm sure could have evoked that. And what a long list of amazing songs they have published since then.

Eddie trying to resist the temptation to say fuk in the line seemed a harmless little ..... 😆Great review as per usual !

Really enjoying your reactions and insight, Thanks! I particularly like "The Wolf" from Into The Wild. Eddie Vedder solo, haunting.

BEAUTIFUL REACTION ANNA!! THIS WHOLE PEARL JAM SESSION IS INCREDIBLE!! EDDIE MAKES YOU FEEL EVERY SINGLE WORD!! THANK YOU FOR SHARING THIS AWESOME VIDEO!! YOUR AWESOME!! 😊 🩷 🤘 ✌️ 🌹

Try to watch and react official music video of jeremy by pearljam

It is fun to see you, a younger generation, experiencing for the first time and embracing this phenomenal band. I truly enjoy your insightful nature and listening to your lovely native language. Please 🙏 continue the PJ exploration. Cheers …any/all of the mtv unplugged PJ songs are well worth your time.

Thank you for your reaction. Jeremy is a sad but also great song. I come from a working class (but most astonishingly also liberal and humiterian) background and did not have to deal with the trials of a Jeremy or at least had means to deal with those problems. So to all parents out there: Take care of your kids or at least try, it's the only thing that'll remain when you are gone. Beyond that topic I have to say, that my favorite of Pearl Jam will always be "Do the evolution". Great song and video that precisely hit my anger. ;) Have a good weekend. :)

Thanks to reacting for this song, Anna. You're amazing 👏👏👏

You now have an official "Eddie Vedder" fever :)

I prefer MTV Unplugged version for Black but for Jeremy I prefer the studio version. But for MTV Unplugged version of Jeremy, I love to Dave Abbruzzese drum

Eddie Vedder also performed several times at the Kennedy Center Honors. (These are five awards given annually to honor those who have contributed to the creative arts- typically to American culture. During these ceremonies, artistic peers and friends of the artists being honored perform/speak to the importance of the honoree's work). Eddie's live performance of "My City of Ruins" to honor Bruce Springsteen is truly beautiful. You may want to watch/react to Bruce's original before watching this one. Please check this out. Even if you choose not to do a reaction video to this, it is very emotional. Thank you. Love the reactions and insights you provide.

Nice moment, when you get lost in song, close eyes and listen .) that´s what pearl jam can do .) nice reaction as always, look beautiful as always :)

I would like to recommend more bands and songs to add to the polls. First is MOTHER LOVE BONE - CHLOE DANCER/CROWN OF THORNS. This band was at the beginning off all grunge scene. Second band is JEFF BUCKLEY - GRACE live in the BBC late show this artist has a amazing voice and some good voice techniques in flipping his voice around. And thank you for all your great reviews Anna.

So happy to see that you decided to listen to Jeremy, and that you enjoyed it! Definitely one of the best songs by this iconic group.

the music video with matching visuals is a must watch

There are so many great performances from the 1992 MTV Unplugged with Pearl Jam. You should check out these other songs from the show. The opening number "Oceans". It's a love song that Eddie wrote about his surfboard & "State of Love & Trust".

Outstanding! Anna, great job. This album is grunge royalty.

Besides Ed’s fantastic voice, he is a beautiful poet. He is a very thoughtful and empathetic man. He takes the music the band members write and writes the lyrics to all of their songs. He also helps out with some of the music sometimes, but he’s definitely the lyrics guy. Another great live PJ performance for you to check out is “Release” (Live from Holland in 1992.) I believe a fan recorded it from the audience, but it’s great quality. It’s the video with over 1M views (if you’re interested in reacting to it). 💜

You really need to watch the unedited music video.

One of the best unplugged sessions back when MTV still played music. Go and watch the Nirvana unplugged session too. Saw Pearl Jam wayyyyyyyyyyyy back in 1995 - was a stunning show.

What a song ! What a band !

"Even Flow" (music video) is my suggestion for your next Pearl Jam song. 😁🫶🏼😁

Another fabulous reaction! I think I could just watch you watch Pearl Jam perform all the time lol Daughter is another great song by Pearl Jam (off a different album than Black and Jeremy)!

Pearl Jam managed to make a first album with only big hits, what an impressive band. Anna, react to the live video of Mad Season's Lone gone day, with Layne and Lanegan singing together, I think it's going to be a fantastic experience.

Love watching you listening to the song before the review. You really get into the music, and your facial expressions give us a glimpse into some of the parts of the song you will be touching on.❤

I recently discovered you and I must say you are very kind and respectful for giving the song space to breathe first and than analysing it afterwords not like the most of the people that are doing here what you do, they just pause all the time and it so fucking anoying 😀 also I like the way you explain things it indicates that you know what are you talking about and also the way you are expressing it it's very nice, I'm glad that you are doing another PJ video as I said before I'm new to your chanel and to be honest I searched on it to see if you have another PJ reaction and here we are now, life is weird huh.🤣Greetings from Macedonia. 🇲🇰 I also like to see you react on Ronnie James DIO the former singer of "Black Sabbath" and "Rainbow", the greatest metal voice in heavy metal history and father of the genre, song recommendation I have so many in my mind but for start u can get into - "Heaven and Hell" and "Children of the Sea" from Black Sabbath and "Stargazer" from Rainbow, I think you gon like it very much.😁 and you can thank me later 😛😀 just kidding. 🤣 Btw the lyrics are "Clearly I remember picking on the boy, seemed a harmless little fu*k" but Eddie censored himself because of the MTV and their rules and we can see clearly in his little smile that he hates it but also in the same time it amuses him for doing it and he is like "well it is what it is". 😂 The song takes its main inspiration from a newspaper article about a 15-year-old boy named Jeremy Wade Delle from Richardson Texas who was bullied alot in school and who shot himself in front of his teacher and his second-period English class of 30 students on the morning of January 8, 1991.

Anna amazing reaction as always keep up the amazing work. Love you enjoy Pearl Jam an Eddie V. Be awesome for you to react to Porch front this mtv session. It's a another whole side of his singing

I just discovered your channel today and I'm really impressed by the thoughtfulness and knowledge in your reactions. I'd love to see your reaction to 'Indifference' by Pearl Jam, one of my favourite songs. Also, as someone else suggested, Jeff Buckley had an incredible voice and I recommend that you give him a listen 🙂

Pearl Jam basically shaped me mentally, especially since I listened to them when I was young. Eddie is a modern shaman.

Damn! This Lady is beautiful.

Great reaction! Thank you.

I love your review & analysis of these brilliant songs.

This was great, thank you :)

i love to hear your voice! finnish sounds so good to me. greetings from germany!

thank you Anna

Vedder has such distinctive unique voice. I like some of his upbeat work like --Hard Sun-- cover

Hi Anna, it is said he was sick on that day. Cold or tonsillitis, something like that. But he wanted to perform anyway. You can hear that some notes he pushed as best as he could, and kept it amazing still.

Powerful video for this one too! A must watch.

Amazing ❤

Porch from this show is INCREDIBLE

I love this song for other vocal coaches to analyze….and their song BLACK. Another fairly recent one I’ve been watching is KASEY CHAMBERS-LOSE YOURSELF live at the Civic Theatre in Australia. Very unique voice. Your ears will love it. :)

I treasure your unplugged reactions and to Pearl Jam! I wonder for this song if you would react to the music video in all its video story visual imagery story! 🎉 🎤 🎙 🎧 🥁 🔥

Another great performance especially live if you prefer those performances is Even Flow, just amazing! Love you Anna ❤

You really need to watch the uncensored video to this song to appreciate the message they convey in this song.

wow !!! anna 😅😅😅 another retro!!! unplugged versions are hits in the 90's

The Finnish language is unique and quite beautiful. I work with many people in Finland and always love to hear them talk among themselves. Kiitos!

I think its time you delve into tne world of chris cornell. A great one to start with would be him and eddie doing hunger strike in a suoer group band from the 90s called temple of the dog.

Great voice..gorgeous Anna

great reactio,, PJ introduced me to Grunge(30 years late)

Another great reaction Anna! Thank you so much for all you do! May as well drop another suggestion while I’m here 😊 How about Ghosts That We Knew by Mumford & Sons, or Thick As Thieves by Natalie Merchant. Much love and thanks as always!!

Finaly....Jeremy👍👍 After jeremy, PLEASE REACT nirvana - where did you sleep last night (live on mtv unplugged) 👍

Perfect

It was obvious that Anna felt what everyone felt when they saw what an exciting work we were dealing with.

Anna please review their songs “Just Breathe” and “Elderly Woman Behind Counter in a Small Town” Love your tips and your analysis! ❤

I'll be damned. I've been a Pearl Jam fan since the mid 90's, and I had no idea about part of the song also being about someone Eddie actually knew. And yeah, I've felt like he always makes a deliberate choice on how to sculpt his vocals based on what he's singing. You should check out "Do The Evolution." The video is animated (by a number of artists, and produced by comic artist Todd MacFarlane) and the vocals are very harsh and chaotic to reflect the lyrics. Also, said video is incredible, and might require two listens to capture the lyrics and the visuals. EDIT: Meant to add, that advice about creating a story before writing a song is brilliant. I've always had trouble with that. Appreciate that :)

Anna great job with your reaction and thoughts on this live performance of Jeremy from The MTV unplugged with Pearl Jam . This is a sad song about a true story of a Student who shot himself in front of his classroom . The band matter with the hat on does a great job with the backup Vocals.

jeremy spoke is the key line. it makes sense at the end.

I really enjoy how you discuss musical pieces. For me, Pearl Jam is one of the greatest rock bands of all time and I’d put Eddie as one of the greatest front men. I’d highly recommend the opening and closing songs of the MTV unplugged. “Oceans” and “Porch”.

City and Colour - Rain when I die. You will love it and your reaction to it would be amazing

I think it's cute watching a woman as pretty as you fawn over Eddie. The rockstars get all the girls. ;). Your analysis is exceptional though. Really. You know your stuff.

Still 🔥🔥🔥🌲🌲

Do Pearl Jam - Alive (unplugged) next please.

The video for this song was pretty iconic. It created some controversy and I think it won some awards as well. I will suggest Fiona Apple with Elvis Costello: "I Want You" live, I think you would have a great reaction to that one. Amazing performance by Fiona.

need a hungerstrike reaction now

My favorite of the MTV unplugged era was 10000 Maniacs unplugged. The song “Trouble Me” particularly. Natalie Merchant shows an extremely relaxed, effortless warm tone. Please check out their performance. Loving your reactions! I live in Michigan in a largely Finnish neighborhood that borders the Detroit Finnish Coop Summer Camp of which I too am a member!

🤩

pearl jam vh1 rock honors. covering the who. 2 performances back to back. I think worth watching if not already.

Listen to Matt Corby’s song “Brother” live on Triple J radio. Super Australian voice!!

Be kind to one another folks. That’s the message here

Sad song but a great song

God bless Seattle! 😬

nice.

As usual Anna, just seeing you makes me happy. It really doesn't matter what you're listening to, as long as it doesn't make you cry, I'm good with it... BIG HUGS and much ❤as always!

Obviously live is better for analysis. Hope you check out the official music video on your own. That is beautiful and CHILLING in how well it covers the topic.

2:51 Anna wanted him to say it 😂

Great Band! Fantastic performance!! (Probably the best MTV unplug ever except for Bjork maybe). Eddy is an exceptional rock vocalist. Great reaction!!

I'm sure that this is probably the best live version of this great song out there, and therefore, it makes a better choice for vocal analysis.... But if you haven't seen it, you should definitely check out the official music video. It not only carries the narrative of the song WAY more than the lyrics themselves, but it was also VERY controversial back in the day. It definitely evokes more emotion than any live performance can.
