Here's a man who's famous, cashes checks written to him for songs he wrote that are famous, travels the world and gets to play in venues that are world famous, is afforded the opportunity to hang out with other people who are famous, and is STILL trying to convince himself that fame doesn't exist.
I guess a parent who loses a child isn't really in pain over that loss because really it's their brain that's telling them to be sad. It's all in your head.
All you had to do was tell Jack Irons you weren't interested in writing any songs for anybody in Seattle and kept pumping that fucking gas and none of this would have happened.
And I guess I'm still gonna buy this mediocre new record with the other 12,000 people. Great effort. Nice country song. And thanks for bringing punk music back. Awesome.
Dude, overreaction city man. Not everything he says is so serious. He likes to stay away from the hollywood stuff...and the comparing what he said about fame and losing a child, that's below the belt. How'd you go from what he said about fame to that? What was your thought process? not yelling at you, just curious? That seems like a huge leap to me.

I believe that Eddie Vedder is quite aware that he is a famous person in a famous band who writes famous songs and gets to hang with famous people.
Perhaps you should watch the video again, this time with your English interpreter who will hopefully explain to you that the question posed to Mr. Vedder was "How Have You Learned to Deal with Fame".
By which Eddie quite -clearly to my ears-explained that this notion of stardom and how you deal with it, is all in your head. In other words it's up to the famous person to decide how they are going to deal with it and react to it. Eddie unlike most celebrites decided long ago that it helps him to get away from people -far away from people-
Not quite sure how you equate these comments on dealing with fame with dead babies and shit...seems like a rather large leap into a rather strange and unrelated situation altogether.
Take Care, hope the medication kicks in.

maybe when you become famous and a woman convinces her self you are jesus and that you fathered her two children by raping her so she rams her car into your house you'll have room to talk. haha.

You just severely misinterpreted some things that were very, very easy to interpret. Go back and watch the video again.

I fail to understand why people care so much about artists' personal lives/beliefs. So Eddie is a rich, uneducated surfer married to a supermodel....who gives a fuck?
He's a great musician. He was born to rock the shit out of us. That's all i need to know.

Exactly. I admire Ed for a lot of things, but not everything. Sometimes it's tempting to put these guys on a pedestal, but they are just as big of hypocrites as all of us are (plus they have more money).
