Good song- Corduroy by Pearl Jam

Shitty songs that follow it- Bugs, Satan's Bed, Better Man, Aye Davanita.

How anyone can think that Vitalogy is anything other than Pearl Jam's shittiest album of the 90s blows my mind. God, this album sucked.

Every John Lennon song that’s followed by a Yoko Ono song on Double Fantasy. I burned a CD copy with all the Yoko songs removed and it’s a great, albeit short, album.

Of course it is and much of the crap they released from then on. Vitalogy is when it stopped being Stone and Jeff's band and became Eddie Vedder's

I wish Pearl Jam had continued being driven by Gossard and Ament. And kept Abbruzzese while they were at it. As good as Vedder was he really drove them down.

I feel like most of those weird, stupid songs on Vitalogy was Eddie Vedder trying to be "deep and artistic" but every single song was just pretentious and stupid.

As much as I used to like him, he's the main reason that I quit listening to their music.

Iron Maiden - Gangland

Kind of a buzzkill in between Run to the Hills and Hallowed be thy Name.

Fun And Games followed by Sal. And pretty much every time a George Huntly song follows any song on any Connells album.

I agree, however 'Candle in the Wind' is not a terrible song. It just should have been moved close the end of the album.

Imagine following the epic love ballad that Frank Sinatra called the greatest love song of the century with BANG BANG Maxwell’s Silver Hammer

Skid Row. I Remember You followed by Midnight/Tornado. It's almost unforgivable.
