Did Eddie Vedder get better at singing?  What a great song…

Pearl Jam – Just Breathe

Yes I understand that every life must end, aw huh,..
As we sit alone, I know someday we must go, aw huh,..
I’m a lucky man to count on both hands
The ones I love,..

Some folks just have one,
Others they got none, aw huh,..

Stay with me,..
Let’s just breathe.

Practiced are my sins,
Never gonna let me win, aw huh,..
Under everything, just another human being, aw huh,..
Yeh, I don’t wanna hurt, there’s so much in this world
To make me bleed.

Stay with me,..
You’re all I see.

Did I say that I need you?
Did I say that I want you?
Oh, if I didn’t now I’m a fool you see,..
No one knows this more than me.
As I come clean.

I wonder everyday
as I look upon your face, aw huh,..
Everything you gave
And nothing you would take, aw huh,..
Nothing you would take,..
Everything you gave.

Did I say that I need you?
Oh, Did I say that I want you?
Oh, if I didn’t now I’m a fool you see,..
No one know this more than me.
As I come clean.

Nothing you would take,..
everything you gave.
Hold me till I die,..
Meet you on the other side.

It’s almost an hour… but it’s definitely worth it.

Ok I’m not a music expert or anything, but I like to find out who my favorite hip hop artists sample their music from.  It’s like finding out who inspires someone great or finding out who your idol’s idols are.

Here’s one I realized today while perusing Imeem.

And here is the more obvious one… he made a classic out of a classic.

Logs sent me a link to a playlist called The Best Hip-Hop Original Samples on Imeem.  Check it out if you’re into that stuff.

Brian McKnight sang “If This World Were Mine” to Nadine a couple days ago for our anniversary.

Here it is!

You can listen to other dedications he’s done on The Wave’s website.
