somebody out there still likes Pearl Jam

I dont know if you remember, but during the previous Olympic games (not in Beijing, the one before that), I was watching the promos on TV and heard them using Spin The Black Circle as the background music.

Well i was watching MBC4 (I think it's a Lebanese station. betul tak Lollies/Nazrah?), and the promo for an arabic soap opera came on and it had this guitar thing going on and it sounded so familiar i had to wreck my brain to think what it was until I realized it was Dirty Frank.

go figure.

  5. Mas,
    I guess what i really meant was "Someone out there likes PearlJam Part 2"
    Tapi most people only know "Last Kiss", which actually, doesnt really count as 'Pearl Jam'. ehehe

    Lolls,
    Dubai eh? wah berapa banyak TV station dubai ada ek?

    nonah,
    So which ones do you like?

    Firhad,
    I wonder if it's because they are so old, they've become public domain or something? How old does a song have to be before they become public domain?
