just digging ONCE from the Prudential Center in Newark, NJ, in 2010 - you can listen to it at http://www.pearljamlive.com

"i'm not crazy, i'm not crazy, once upon a time" - ev

"i got nothing to say, i got nothing to say" - ev

pearl jam has done a lot for the mentally ill with their music and the subjects that's covered by their music. songs such as "rival," "stupid's mop," "footsteps," "force of nature," "jeremy," "why go?" and "once" just to name a few.

so what do you think about how pearl jam has reached out to the mentally ill?

i think the perfect quote is Jack Nicholson as R.P. McMurphy from One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest, "You're no crazier than the average asshole out on the street"

"Here's my house, drive your car through it."

like in the episode of Everybody Loves Raymond, when Ray's parents drive their car in reverse and end up driving into Ray and Debra's house? :lol:

I'd exclude "force of nature" from that list... I don't think the writer or the subject are mentally unstable in that one.

On his shoulder rests a violin
For his head where choas reigns
But his heart can't find a simple way
To live with all those things - Neil Young/Stringman

an interesting article on mental illness, which tries to portray the mentally ill as humans, which is a good thing

I agree. I can't stand it when the mentally ill are portrayed as aliens OR WORSE as sea creatures

or muppets.

I hate that almost as much as when they are portrayed as silverware, luggage, or other fine decor.
