although I do love the way in my tree and not for you come out of their bridges. A lot of times that's most important than the bridge itself

I think Insignificance and Hail Hail are two of my favorites. The musical interlude in Insignificance, as it roars back into the final chorus, is probably my favorite moment in any Pearl Jam song. It's perfect. With Hail Hail, I think what I love is how unexpected it is in comparison to how bridges seem to work; who would think a heavy riff song such as this would lead to a (relatively) calm vamp in D? But when you hear it, there's no way it could have been any other way.

EDIT: The posts above me made me wonder how I could forget Corduroy and Immortality.

I had already mentioned Corduroy, Severed Hand and DTE as my favorite bridges, but after reading 60 days of Pearl Jam thing I remembered that I love that Life Wasted bridge...

The chord progression is kinda weird yet so awesome.

Pretty much PJ in a nutshell.

In fact...going back and listening over everyone's suggestions, I would say it's what PJ excels at most.

I love that part of the song too, that might be favourite musical moment of that whole album.

I really like Life Wasted, I wish they could remix it so it didn't sound so harsh to listen to.

Agree with most of the songs already mentioned. A much lesser liked song in general that has fantastic bridge is Supersonic.

Evacuation's bridge is probably the best piece of music these bozos have written.
