YT: Official video for ‘Jeremy’ by Pearl Jam REMASTERED IN HD! (..)
Originally released in 1992, the Jeremy video brought attention to gun violence, teen suicide, and violence in schools. The original uncensored video, previously unreleased, is being shown here for essentially the first time. The themes of Jeremy highlighted by Pearl Jam in 1991, have sadly only become more relevant in the intervening 30 years as gun deaths continue to increase.
Pearl Jam continues its activism to reduce gun violence. You can support their efforts through re-released Choices merchandise and by donating to VitalogyFoundation

At home drawing pictures
Of mountain tops
With him on top
Lemon yellow sun
Arms raised in a V
Dead lay in pools of maroon below
Daddy didn't give attention
Oh, to the fact that mommy didn't care
King Jeremy the wicked
Oh, ruled his world
Jeremy spoke in class today
Jeremy spoke in class today
Clearly I remember
Pickin' on the boy
Seemed a harmless little fuck
But we unleashed the lion
Gnashed his teeth and bit the recessed lady's breast
How could I forget
And he hit me with a surprise left
My jaw left hurting
Dropped wide open
Just like the day
Oh like the day I heard
Daddy didn't give affection
And the boy was something that mommy wouldn't wear
King Jeremy the wicked
Ruled his world
Jeremy spoke in class today
Jeremy spoke in class today
Jeremy spoke in class today

eric3579says...So pre 1944 it seems The Pledge of Allegiance of the United States was accompanied by the Bellamy salute(as seen in the video). If it wasn't for those damn Nazis co-opting it, American kids everywhere would still be doing it.

StukaFoxsays...Gensis 3:6 -- " "When the woman saw that the fruit of the tree was good for food and pleasing to the eye, and also desirable for gaining wisdom, she took some and ate it. She also gave some to her husband, who was with her, and he ate it."
In Judaeo-Christian belief, this is the moment when sin entered the world.
Also, I remember watching this video on MTV and how quickly it was pulled. People'll watch 'Saw' by the million, but the second you refer to real suffering, they get real pissy about that.
newtboyjokingly says...Sure...eating a pomegranate (more likely than apples, and with local historical mythological references like the story of Persephone) is what opened a Pandora's box of sin, not populating the earth by having children with their children.
Christians are so weird.
