SONG OF THE DAY: Eddie Vedder - "Society"



The best way to experience Into the Wild, the soundtrack, is to watch the movie. Eddie Vedder, the lead singer of Pearl Jam, wrote the album after seeing a first cut of the movie, Into the Wild.  His work perfectly captivated the essence of the movie and completed it in a way that no one else could.  Vedder wrote "Society", with incredible lyricism.  "There's those thinkin' more or less, less is more,
but if less is more, how you keepin' score?".  "Society" tells the struggle of breaking all ties with societal norms.  If only Bon Iver would cover this on his next trip to that magical land in Wisconsin.
