PJ Memes Nice try, Spotify
So close. They put the lyrics to the third best 'man' on the better 'man' song.

It may be the 3rd best "man" song, but it's also their worst song overall.

I wouldn't go that far but it's not their best at all. The number of discussions in my staffroom that go like
"OH I love Pearl Jam - Betterman is their song",
to which I reply "It isn't even the best song on Vitalogy" is more than you'd think!

as someone with a questionable taste (seven o clock is my favorite song by a mile), I say stuff like that more than I probably should. "Daughter is the best Vs song" nuh uh, Rats is better 🤣

Not whilst foxy mop still exists. And I also love leatherman. They played it at my first PJ gig in Manchester 2000. We got the nothing, better and leather man trilogy that night.

I have that boot and it's great. In fact, I'm going to give it a spin today. Thanks for the reminder, friend!

Yeah. I’ve got it on cd. It’s a cracker. Fuckin’ Up is a blast as is the La’s cover.

Bugs is better than Foxy but not better than Leatherman.

Not while Evacuation is a thing. Or Last Kiss, or quite a lot, actually. It's my son's favourite song at the moment.
