@@mikecalkins6467 Eddie was 45 in this video, Roger was 77/78 at the time of that performance. That’s not a fair comparison at all. Roger sung it best originally and in his middle age. Eddie would probably sing it better now than Roger, but Roger has 20 years on him…
@@allbottledup9513 yeah i knew it wasn't a fair comparison, but that guy said Roger DOES it better, like today he does it better than Ed... no he absolutely does not. (to me)
Only love can make it rain The way the beach is kissed by the sea Only love can make it rain Like the sweat of lovers Laying in the fields Love, reign o'er me Love, reign on me, rain o'er me Rain on me Only love can bring the rain That makes you yearn to the sky Only love can bring the rain That falls like tears from on high Love, reign o'er me, rain on me Love, reign o'er me, rain on me Rain on me On the dry and dusty road The nights we spend apart alone I need to get back home to cool cool rain I can't sleep and I lay and I think The night is hot and black as ink Wooh God, I need a drink of cool cool rain Love, reign o'er me Reign o'er me, o'er me Love, reign o'er me Rain on me Love
damn - that is one brave performance - there are but a small handful of singers of ANY era who are brave enough to even attempt to sing this and fewer still who can actually pull it off - hard to follow in the vocal footsteps of someone like Daltry on such a demanding song - a legend song - I was truly nervous for him risking so much but ... ... ... he nailed it
It wasn’t a one off thing. They’ve performed that song for years (their version is on the soundtrack for the movie Reign Over Me from 2007) and they’ve done covers of The Who since the beginning. Eddie Vedder’s favorite band, that he grew up listening to and singing along to, so he’s had some practice.
Agreed. That's a DIIFFICULT song to hit and EV nails it. The vocal jumps and emotional range is so difficult. But BOOM. He rails it. Yeah, Rails. No typo. Superior cover.
No puede ser!!!!!! En días pasados, estaba escuchando la versión de THE WHO. Y pensé - si Eddy cantara está canción? Cómo seria-. Y hoy me la conseguí. Extraño no?😊😊😊😊
He's not even stressing the "love reign on me" part. It's so amazing to see that! It just comes so naturally to him, it's beautiful! ^_^ Such a great cover!
who would have thought that Eddie Vedder and Pearl Jam would be doing this song in 2010. to go from 1989 to this song. OMG, it is so awesome. Pearl Jam rocks!!!! Eddie going from pumping gas to being the star that he is. I am getting goosebumps.
‘Who would have thought’? They’ve done covers of The Who songs since the formation of Pearl Jam in 1990. It’s Eddie Vedder’s favorite band that he grew up listening to. They released this song in 2007 on the soundtrack for the movie Reign Over Me.
Oh my gosh, I can't believe I found this... I was about to leave because I needed to catch a train when I heard this start and because it was close to the end of the night, I was able to sneak to the side of the stage. Amazing performance.
I know for The Who for a long time, but I never listened them, until I did it few days ago, and first song I was listening is this, and first thing what I think is that I think about how it would be that Eddie sing this song. And then, here I am, and.. I'm speechless... One and only Eddie Vedder!
Why compare. He does the song in his version and it kicks ass. What I especially like is that doing these types of songs keeps their spirit alive and god only knows we need to keep it going. Well done Eddie, keep spreading the love.
Yeah, consult Daltrey &Townsend so they can tell you what Vedder fans they are. They can tell you about the mutual respect & admiration that exists between the two great bands! It's not a competition it's a tribute.
Eddie kicks fucking ass on this song. Am a big freak of THE WHO. Saw The WHO 5 times. This song only two times live with The WHO. They said years ago it was just to much to perform this song live. But with all the new technology they have been able to do it. Back in the early 90s the who started doing it at most shows. But PJ does it fucking great and of them. The drummer is awesome guitar player fantastic and of course Eddie kicks ass. ROCK ON WORLD
A most powerful rendition and a fitting tribute to Roger Daltry. If you have seen the movie, you will know how fitting this song was for the title track.
Coming from Brighton england the quadraphenia capital this had to be more than good and I wasn't let down cooking brilliant well done Mr v and the boys
Wow! And, I thought Heart's cover of this song was amazing. But, this is absolutely brilliant. Wow, can that man sing! I'm sure Roger Daltrey is so proud of this version.
Nooooooo Don't ever say that again. You may already have a front seat and you know where. Damn I loved every second of this...He is a god I do believe. Ha!
Saw them do this at MSG 1978 and played this for" Keith" first tour after he died Roger sang this running in place the whole song crazy and singing this !!! Boston your my Home dirtywater baby
OMFG!!! Sorry everyone! I m so in love with this man! His voice is phenomenal! He gets better as the years go by! The passion he puts into his work! Such a SEXY SOULFUL voice! Just added this 2nd on my playlist after BLACK! Comfortably Numb w David Bowie now to 3rd! I wake up and go to sleep with Eddie everyday....30 years now! 🥰
As a longtime PJ fan (with Vedder being the reason I started singing in the first place), his performance of this song just blows me away. I don't think his voice has hit me as hard since I first heard "Ten" in the early 90's, and that was a life changing experience for me as a teenager so to still have that sort of impact is just incredible.
Has to be one of the best covers ever of any song.
Yep…….and the Heart cover is equally as good !!
WOW!! Definitely the best!!
It was indeed quite good!
Chris Cornell's version will give you chills.
It was. Was there. Had an orgasm during it. Nothing more be said.
I applaud the fact that Pearl Jam chose not to earmark their version but play it straight (for the most part) Lots of respect here.
Eddie is so freaky perfect for this song. Love itl.
I like this cover a lot. But a chris Cornell version would have been a fucking riot
Those arms!
L0p
God damn this man can sing ..
Eddie Vedder is a living legend!!
Absofrickinlutely!!!
Only PJ can give me goosebumps after seeing both them & The Who do this live!! So great to be a concert junkie for 60 years!!!
Pearl Jam is only surviving Superstars from the grunge era of 90
The VOICE...cannot do better than this....absolutely phenomenal!
absolutely agree:)
Roger does it better.
@@BernardWilkinson Originally, MAYBE. Right now?- Go watch the Jazz Fest performance from '22 and tell me it's better than this...

Only love can make it rain
The way the beach is kissed by the sea
Only love can make it rain
Like the sweat of lovers
Laying in the fields
Love, reign o'er me
Love, reign on me, rain o'er me
Rain on me
Only love can bring the rain
That makes you yearn to the sky
Only love can bring the rain
That falls like tears from on high
Love, reign o'er me, rain on me
Love, reign o'er me, rain on me
Rain on me
On the dry and dusty road
The nights we spend apart alone
I need to get back home to cool cool rain
I can't sleep and I lay and I think
The night is hot and black as ink
Wooh God, I need a drink of cool cool rain
Love, reign o'er me
Reign o'er me, o'er me
Love, reign o'er me
Rain on me
Love
One of my top three PJ covers. Ed really shows the power in his voice after all these years. Doing Roger proud.
agreed. sittin on the dock of the bay..#1 imho
Such a powerful voice, and he makes it look effortless.
Not many bands would attempt this classic
Fair play
What a song!!!!
when I first heard this cover, it brought tears to my eyes! Talk about hitting it out of the fucking park!
I know right. Made the hair on the back of my neck stand up.
@@tanyaleavitt5652 got me deep in my stomach
This is insane. I cried a little.
that last scream... shows it all...
I KNOW..IT DOES SOMETHING TO MY SOUL!! I LOVE IT SO!!
GOD..EDDIE IS SO FUCK COOL!! NO ONE NOT EVEN THE WHO CAN DO THE SONG AS WELL AS EDDIE!!!
Timothy Miller I think a lot of people would disagree there
For much as I love Roger Daltrey, this is incredible...

Without your opinion. I would never be the same. You changed my life. Oh great one

I usually hate covers except when they're impromptu live performances that pay respect to the originals and aren't butchered. This is a great one.
i love this. my favorite cover of all time. eddie is the best.
I love that you can see Eddie feeling the music and literally putting that emotion into his voice..... Eddie's the fucking man
he really is.
That's his calling card. Emotion + great range. I agree wholeheartedly with you.
No puede ser!!!!!! En días pasados, estaba escuchando la versión de THE WHO. Y pensé - si Eddy cantara está canción? Cómo seria-. Y hoy me la conseguí. Extraño no?😊😊😊😊

@@leinonibishop9480 He obviously meant still doing this song. So eager to correct somebody you missed the entire point of his comment.
@@allbottledup9513 someone missed the point, but it wasn’t me. Maybe you are so eager to chastise me that you didn’t read either comment correctly.
Love The Who, love Pearl Jam, love this song, just soooo much love for all of this!
My heart my love Eddie and the gang!
absolutely that voice and soul
One of the greatest songs
10 years and still kicking ass
Eddie's favorite band. Absolutely does roger daltrey justice. What a voice ! Perfection !!@@
God, I love this man
Eddie is the perfect guy to do this brilliant classic from the upper airness of a world class band.
They're actually chanting "Boom!" He's the keyboard player for the band, Boom Gaspar
That voice...that man!
Wow....one of my favorite songs as a kid....done by Pearl Jam..holy shit
Eddie is perfect, I love it all! What a wonderful voice.
Oh my gosh, I can't believe I found this... I was about to leave because I needed to catch a train when I heard this start and because it was close to the end of the night, I was able to sneak to the side of the stage. Amazing performance.
When the crowd sings with him, I shake with excitement! It's so powerful!
What an excellent version of one of my favorite songs. They nailed it!

One of my favourite songs and one of my favourite voices. A perfect match.
This might be my favorite song ever, and Daltrey does it about as well as it can be done - but I'm so glad I found this cover, what a great voice.
So beautiful that I feel like crying! ❤❤❤
Fabulous rendition of my favorite song by The Who.
I listened to this while tripping a burst in to tears
Check out PJ playing this song at Pauley Pavilion for a tribute concert for The Who. They were backed by an orchestra and blew the roof off the place.
Goosebumps. Holy fuck, what a voice, what a performance, what an amazing artist.
Mot a patch on the who
Why compare. He does the song in his version and it kicks ass. What I especially like is that doing these types of songs keeps their spirit alive and god only knows we need to keep it going. Well done Eddie, keep spreading the love.
Amazing cover. Eddie V nailed it.
Best cover ever
Love this version by Eddie Vedder
Oh my heavens this is good.
Superb!!!
When you absolutely unleash the beast...because you can.
Yeah, consult Daltrey &Townsend so they can tell you what Vedder fans they are. They can tell you about the mutual respect & admiration that exists between the two great bands! It's not a competition it's a tribute.

You can see how much he loves and feels music. Love Love Love!
LOVE ❤️ I feel the Love of God, The Lord Jesus Christ in this song, Power in the blood Amen...

Incrível! Amo❤️🤘
It was indeed quite good!
What's crazy is this sounds like a Pearl Jam song. If I hadn't heard it for so many decades I would've just thought it was one of theirs.
I feel so much love for this man.
Nobody could have done it better!!!👍🎸
So beautiful it gives me chills all over!! 🖤🖤
Wow! And, I thought Heart's cover of this song was amazing. But, this is absolutely brilliant. Wow, can that man sing! I'm sure Roger Daltrey is so proud of this version.

Eddie, the best rock vocalist in the world today
And yesterday, the man is just simply awesome!
AgileMJOLNIR You are right today & yesterday
Epic...
Excellent❤
I hope this was their encore, because nothing can ever follow this song!
The Pearl jam and the Who. Two leggendari band ❤️
I get goose bumps.
Amazing.
"Love reign o'er me" is not a song. It is a force. It can not be "covered".
This is Pearl Jam's humble tribute and they get it.
don't listen to much pearl jam none actually but this specific video been in my head for 9 years now. That performance is Immortal
OMFG!!! Sorry everyone! I m so in love with this man! His voice is phenomenal! He gets better as the years go by! The passion he puts into his work! Such a SEXY SOULFUL voice! Just added this 2nd on my playlist after BLACK! Comfortably Numb w David Bowie now to 3rd! I wake up and go to sleep with Eddie everyday....30 years now! 🥰

Fantastic perfomance!
Sends shivers through your whole being!

I used to be happy with just having seats to a Pearl Jam concert, but from this perspective, seeing them play just gives me goosebumps.
