I was first introduced to Pearl Jam by my mom because it's her favorite band. I was sort of forced to listen to their music in the car at times but the band soon grew on me the more I heard them. Now i can almost sing the words to many of their songs. One of my favorites by them is Black. The lyrics in Black is what I really love. In the first few lines of the song, Eddie Vedder makes an analogy singing "Sheets of empty canvas, untouched sheets of clay
Were laid spread out before me as her body once did." He compares the girl to a work of art which really is a way of him saying she's beautiful. I think that analogy was an amazing way to portray what he was trying to say. Pearl Jam is definitely one of my favorites.
