Corduroy is the best bridge of not only Pearl Jam's catalog, but maybe the best hard rock bridge I've ever heard.
Agreed, I was about to make a post saying Corduroy has my favirote bridge in any song ever.
Corduroy is pretty perfect, bridge n' all.
No Way has a fantastic spacey breakdown, that sorta counts.
Another vote for the instrumental bridge of Light Years/P&G. That bit is the highlight of both songs for me - the band must've been keen on it too, seeing as they kept it pretty much untouched.
Not For You. That's a good 'un.
EVACUATION - Okay, so we all know how much I'm the unofficial cheer squad for this song. But even if you're an Evacuation-hating philistine, you've gotta admit it's got a helluva bridge.

No Way is pretty great, but it only really works on the studio version. They couldn't quite cover all the parts live. The part with the descending bassline as the drums come back in before the chorus is brilliant.
I'd like to ass Down to the mix.
B - Wikipedia defines a musical bridge, thus: 'a contrasting section which also prepares for the return of the original material section'.
Typically pop/rock songs follow a Verse/Chorus/Verse/Chorus/Bridge/Chorus formula.

spenno, can we start an evacuation club and wear t shirts?
Corduroy, severed hand.
Also, all of Ten's bridges are horrible. So not well written. "uh, there should be another part here, uh, just do a solo?!" ok!
