Reviews
Displaying all reviews (1)I think this is one of the best Pearl Jam songs; the way the song gradually winds up (both in volume and intensity) from the gentle, quiet, soft beginning to the passionate, louder section after the first 2-3 pages of the song is just a fantastic rush and is an absolute blast to play and hear; one of the best crescendos in rock music after a quiet beginning (another classic rock song that does this {i.e., starts slowly & softly then gradually transitions to a faster, louder, and brilliant finale, beginning with Jimmy Pages superb guitar solo} in the same incredible way: Stairway to Heaven). This sheet music is true to the original song with the exact/correct chords and notes. This song (Better Man) is one of my absolute favorites to play on the keyboard.
