Black Lyrics
Artist(Band):Pearl Jam
Review The Song (37)Print the Lyrics
Sheets of empty canvas, untouched sheets of clay
Her legs spread out before me as her body once did
All five horizons revolved around her soul
As the earth to the sun
Now the air I tasted and breathed has taken a turn
Ooh, and all I taught her was everything
Ooh, I know she gave me all that she wore
And now my bitter hands chafe beneath the clouds
Of what was everything?
Oh, the pictures have all been washed in black, tattooed Everything...

I take a walk outside
I'm surrounded by some kids at play
I can feel their laughter, so why do I sear
Oh, and twisted thoughts that spin round my head
I'm spinning, oh, I'm spinning
How quick the sun can, drop away
And now my bitter hands cradle broken glass
Of what was everything
All the pictures have all been washed in black, tattooed everything...

All the love gone bad turned my world to black
Tattooed all I see, all that I am, all I'll be...yeah...
Uh huh...uh huh...ooh...

I know someday you'll have a beautiful life, I know you'll be a star
In somebody else's sky, but why, why, why
Can't it be, can't it be mine

Review about Black

their best work | Reviewer: Kabsy | 9/28/09

This is the first song by pearl jam although not released as a single. To me it is the best song of theirs by far, so much emotion in Eddies voice and music is brilliant, every time i hear him sing it it make the hairs on the back of my neck stand up. She must have been one hell of a women to envoke such emotion.



the best one ever ........ | Reviewer: Anonymous | 9/26/09

well one of a kind or migh be the best one ever and think that vedders almos dont recorded but all of us are thanks they did firt time i here the some i star crying my brother pas away the same date



Amazing Song | Reviewer: Anonymous | 9/3/09

This song just might be Pear Jam's best. I absolutely love Eddie Vedder's vocals all throught the song, not to mention some powerful guitar work. So much emotion to this song, it's just one of those songs that is just able to combine the emotion into the not just the lyrics and vocals, but also the instruments. I just heard this song on the raido and every time i hear it, i just go off to a place where i'm surrounded by the sounds that these guy's bring, and reminds me of certian people and places i've seen and known so far in my life. I just wish i could've been around at the time when this kind of great music was making it big.



*sigh* | Reviewer: candichan | 8/22/09

Beautiful. The kind of song that chills you to your core, no matter how many times you listen to it. It hit me right from the first time I'd ever heard it, and I love reading these reviews because they only stand to prove that this is a brilliant song.
How can you tell?
People who are now 30 years old listened to it and connected to it when they were 16/17/18.
I'm 18 now and it still reaches out to me. Passes along the generations and still holds an impact.
It's amazing.
I love Pearl Jam, so excited that they're hitting up Melbourne soon! :)



Black: Still kicks my a$$ | Reviewer: Teena Santos | 7/23/09

Black is my all time favorite PJ song. The lines just say it all everytime i have a heart breaking episode Black is number one on my playlist. Very few PJ song has caught my attention and this has got to be the best for me so far. ROck On Pearl JAM



Black | Reviewer: Lisa | 4/27/09

I first heard "Black" briefly in my car and walked into my home muttering the words and my then nine and ten year olds began jumping on me to go the concert. This was in New Orleans where they had scheduled (2) shows. Unfortunately, both shows were sold out. My friends told me the band did not do "Black." Then a miracle occurred - they added a third show, we got great tickets and praise all that is holy and precious, Eddie Vedder sung "Black." My (2) older girls (I have four daughters) were supremely jealous, so that gave me an excuse to see then every time they have come to town. "Black" has almost become my personal anthem (I would say definitely - but Pearl Jam does so many songs that touch my heart and soul.) I hope they have the longevity of the Rolling Stones, the impact of a vanguard forefront (really - already achieved,) the prolific production of Lennon/McCarthy and most important PLAESE COME BACK TO NEW ORLEANS !!!!! I live (4) miles from where the levees broke and we are looking for distractions of such a magnitude concert of two or three or four from one of New Orleans all time favorite, yes it is: PEARL JAM
One of your legions of "Number One Fans", I remain truly committed: Lisa E. Martin

(N.B. If I could get an autographed picture- -or even just a picture, especially of Eddie Vedder you could certainly give me, a housebound invalid a major thrill. (I do respect and admire the whole band, including, but not limited to the songs that Stone and Eddie write together. May be it's the ancient pull of the "lead "singer. I love you all



powerful... | Reviewer: emptyn | 4/20/09

I can still remember buying this tape..actually bought it twice...and now on CD...I can relate to the emotions that you all shared above...I still can cry when I play this song...im getting goosebumps thinking about it...I was a young man also...17 I believe...I can remember trying to mend a lost love at the time and driving home which was 30 minutes away...and whaling along with the first verse...then the second...and when you finally lost your breath on the last word mine...all that negative energy,vibe,feelings,what have you escaped your soul...the tears still falling...your eyes swolen and your heart heavy...you'd listen to it again and again till i arrived at home...I remember even sitting in my car listening to it again...BLACK is my favorite song of all time..even if it brings back the past...but the past is what made us...stronger...smarter..and ready for the next time...

Just so amazing | Reviewer: Andy | 3/26/09

The emotion Eddie Vedder puts into this song is amazing Pearl Jam is such a big influence in my life, these lyrics with Eddie's voice gives me chilles everytime, and especially when he holds out "mine" at the very end. I was born 1 year after this song came out, I can't believe that this song is the old cause it is ahead of it's time, this song relates to with me and what my old girlfriend did to me, I could listen to this song over and over, I listened to this song 13 times in a row! "Ten" is such a big influence on my life and Eddie Vedder is such a humble guy, and he respects his band mates and fans, and he is just so amazing! Pearl Jam rules!



my moms song | Reviewer: unknown | 1/22/09

i cant say like all the other people that i was a teen when i first heard this song cuz i was only 3 or 4 years old wen my mom used to play pearl jams tape.....i am not going to be 17 and most of the times my mom puts this song on.at the very end i see tears roll down her cheeks....she tells me that this song brings back a lot of memories of her teen years in jersey wen we lived back in the states...( we now live in italy) i like this song even if its not a present day song of my times...but it has a true meaning to what i think i still dont know about.....prob love. not like the sings of these modern days where half the time they dont even make sense......to bad i wasnt a teen wen this type of music came out....would hav enjoyed that era more than i enjoy this one...



Brings back memories | Reviewer: Anonymous | 1/23/09

For me it brings back memories of me as a teenager. I used to listen to this song when I was 16/17, I'm now 30. The lyrics are now comprehensible and you can almost apply it to most relationships you've had since - because the most meaningful relationships still stay in your memory/heart, and I think this song will always bring that back again..but it has a purpose our outcome (at least for me) - what was what was...use this song to get over bad experiences, wallow in it if you like, but once it finshes, the effort Eddie puts into it leaves you exhausted (esp if played loud)...after that I feel free again...
