1. Which Pearl Jam album has a song featuring this line: "I cannot stop the thought of running in the dark"?

Answer: Vitalogy

This line comes from the song "Immortality", which Eddie Vedder purportedly had written about Kurt Cobain's suicide.

Answer: Vs

The song is from "Indifference", the closing song on "Vs." "Vs." is a very aggressive, hard-rock album, and "Indifference", the album's closer, is a much more mellow tune musically. The music fits in well with the lyrics.

3. For this song, Eddie got his inspiration from his love of surfing. The line in question is: "Oh. Oh. Oh I will be, I will be there once more." What's the album?

Answer: Ten

This line is from the song "Oceans". Eddie Vedder was stuck in a rain storm when he wrote these lyrics. According to Jeff Ament, they put "Oceans" on "Ten", as musically it is one of the "weirder" moments and the band wanted the freedom to explore those musical detours later on. "Oceans" was the fourth single from "Ten".

4. Apparently Eddie was pretty bummed out when he penned the following line: "If nothing is everything I'll have it all". Name the album.

Answer: Pearl Jam

Answer: Riot Act

These lines appear in "Love Boat Captain". Vedder cowrote the song with Boom Gaspar, the secondary keyboardist who Vedder met in Hawaii and invited to play with Pearl Jam.

Answer: Binaural

The song is "Insignificance", taken from the Binaural album. The album was released in 2000. Pearl Jam released 72 live albums chronicling the 2000/2001 tour in support of Binaural, which set a record for the most albums to enter the Billboard Top 200 album chart at one time.

Answer: Yield

This line is from the song "Given to Fly", Pearl Jam's first single from their 1998 album "Yield". There was some controversy at the time of its release, as some people felt the song sounded like Led Zeppelin's "Going to California".
