The fun bouncy nature of the song though is juxtaposed with Eddie singing from the point of view of a man who likes having a gun so he can feel more powerful and masculine: It reminded me a bit of the Spin Doctors, which probably isn't a coincidence since 1993 was the year of The Spin Doctors thanks to their double smash hits Little Miss Can't Be Wrong and Two Princes. When I first bought Vs in the fall of 2002, Glorified G was one of the first songs to grab me because it had a nice bounce to it that was very catchy. After Vitalogy Pearl Jam continued to have rock radio hits, but once those hits ran their course they would be dropped completely and rock radio would return to the songs off the band's first three albums.

Those hits off Vitalogy also mark the last hits by Pearl Jam that stuck around on rock radio long after they were first released.

Vitalogy was not as big as Ten or Vs but it still went #1, sold over 5 million copies and had some of Pearl Jam's biggest and best hits such as Betterman and Corduroy. For others Vitalogy is the last truly great Pearl Jam album that saw the band still at full flight when inspiration hit, but by No Code most of those fans would also jump ship. For some fans this is the album where they turned their backs on Pearl Jam and started listening to other more mainstream post-grunge acts such as Live and Bush. Vitalogy marks an important turning point for not only Pearl Jam, but for many of their fans as well. Vitalogy was also Pearl Jam's weirdest album up until that point with 4 experimental tracks that tested the patience of some of their fans.

Good songs by pearl jam
