Fun fact:That song was written and recorded in 20 minutes.

The song is about Vedder's biological father, who he never really got to know. It's an incredibly emotional song.

"Oh, dear dad, can you see me now. I am myself, like you somehow."
Fantastic line.

"I'll ride the wave where it takes me
I'll hold the pain
Release me"

Have you heard his delivery of these lyrics? It almost gives me goosebumps.
