I wish I was a radio song, the one that you turned up I wish, I wish, I wish, I wish I guess it never stops... I'm surprised no one's commented on this part. I know when I'm driving in my car, and I turn a song up that makes me think of someone... I'm there driving fully into that song. I can always just go for a drive, and think of that someone by turning my songs to that person on full blast. Amazing song, by an amazing band... You can't expect anything less from these guys

"i wish i was as fortunate, as fortunate as me" "i wish i was the verb to trust and never let you down" unbelievably good lyrics, possibly Eddie's best ever lyric.

About sharing favorite sentences, I can't tell between the one mentioned by ELS and "I wish I was a sacrifice but somehow still lived on"... Hell of a song... Just as usual for Pearl Jam...

Agreed skaman...DC version was the greatest (out of the 4 i've listened to). The others weren't bad, mind you. Even if the words were incoherent this song would still be blissfully beautiful.
