6:10 pm - a little help needed

olansamuelle
Hi, I need to translate into Spanish the lyrics from Backspacer.

A couple of verses from Gonna see my friend and Supersonic are giving me a hard time (I'm Spanish. And Eddie is difficult to translate).

Would you mind taking a look and tell me if my interpretation has a pass? Thanks sooo much.

10:29 am - Romantic PJ Quotes

cellophanestarr
Hey, I posted this on the Pit but I should ask you on here too...

"Hey all, my fiancee and I are getting married next year & I'm in the process of drafting the invitations. We're both big Pearl Jam fans... on our second date, he gave me a burned copy of the Gorge 2006 show, printed in colour and using cds that looked like LPs! that's when I knew there was something special there!

On the invitations, I'd like to open with a romantic line or two, followed by the wedding info. Here's my idea so far:

"It's already been sung, but it can't be said enough.
All you need is love...

[insert date, time, people info here]"

However, that line from Love Boat Captain is all I can think of right now. Any other great lines I'm missing?
(Anyone who suggests a line from Betterman can GTFO! haha)
Thanks!"

Some people's suggestions:
"''And love, what a different life had I not found this love with you" from Parachutes.

"How to be happy and true, Is the quest we're taking on together"

from amongst the waves, "if not for love, i would be drowning.."

"hail hail all the lucky ones i refer to those in love"

"Your love is a tower of strength to me. I am the shoreline, you are the sea." *** (love this but not sure if it's approriate for invitations... maybe could be incorporated into the wedding favours?)

"Stay with me... You’re all I see."

1:16 pm - Backspacer artwork, Speed of Sound...wow... (spoiler!)

olansamuelle
 
The Sky I scrape posted the artwork of Backspacer. They made a contest to find all pictures on the web. People who found them got to listen to Speed of sound.

Link to listen to the song. Nothing to do with The Fixer. Nothing to do with Got Some. I found it completely beautiful (lyrics also in TSIS), and yes, looks like a solo Ed's song.

This post is to share what you heard Ed sing last night on the Tonight Show. See my previous post to see a video of the performance. LJ-cut to not pollute what you hear with what CC showed. Please post what your interpretation of his mumbling is in the comments!

5:18 am - If you need it...

bigangry
Pearl Jam perform a brand new song on the Tonight Show!

Also confirmed last night is the title of the new album, Backspacer. The album art shown, however, is just concept art, and may or may not be final. The album is tenatively scheduled for a September 22nd 2009 release date.

There's no confirmed name for the song, but I'd assume it's called Got Some or some variation on that. Video included in the link, hopefully it's still up later today.

There ARE some mistaken people out there calling this one "The Fixer", but that's just the title of a song PJ played for a Target commercial that may or may not be a Target exclusive when the album is released.

PJ manager Kelly Curtis has confirmed that the band will be self-releasing Backspacer, and will focus on releasing the album with Target, "an online retailer, a mobile partner, a gaming company and with a network or pissibly networks of indie retail stores."
The first single is expected to be released next month (July. Yes, it's June already.)
