I've seen alot of people talking about underated songs lately, so i thought i would devote a thread to it. My top 3 are

No Way - one of my favorite songs off my favortie album. Its only been played a handful of times live, and thats why i think it gets lost.

In Hiding - Another one from Yield, and i think it is an all around great song.

Insignificance - I wouldnt call this song catchy, but the way that the guitar part repeats itself throughout the song is awesome. I never hear to much praise for it.

ya those are all really good

ones to add: strangest tribe, drifting, let me sleep, education...

the strangest tribe/drifting/let me sleep trio on lost dogs has got to be the best 3 in a row songs on any pearl jam album. and they are all underated songs.

I think Down and Ghost are two very under rated songs.

I love Insignificance. It's the only reason I choose to listen to Binaural. I like some of the other songs off of Binaural like Sleight of Hand, Grievance, and Thin Air, but none of them compare to Insignificance.

It might just be me, But I think Love boat captains quite underrated. And all of a sudden not popular because it became a single.

On a national popularity level:
Red Mosquito
Immortality
Do the Evolution
Light Years

I think these songs could/should have been big.

On a PJ fans level:
(I am not sure if any exist but...)
Love Boat Captain- I think this is the closest thing to an epic song PJ has had in years.
Garden- I love the way this song rolls. soft LOUD soft ROCKING!!!!etc
