Man. My friend was a huge Pearl Jam fan back in the day. He would sing this song every time we went out to any place doing karaoke. I got my heart absolutely torn apart once, and he really helped me through it. When I just didn’t want to be alone he was down for me to come by every night and we’d sit in his garage and drink beers and smoke and talk, and he played me this song—now, I grew up on Pearl Jam in the 90s. Loved them. But I hadn’t kept listening to them.
But one night when I was avoiding being alone with my thoughts and he was there for me, he told me I needed to listen to that song again. He played it and Jesus Christ, man. I never felt so personally seen by a song I’d known my whole life.

I would recommend you Chris Cornell’s album “Songbook”.
You probably know all the main Grunge bands but Mother Love Bone is not that well known. I totally would recommend!
