Orígenes del vídeo
Ellos ya habían hecho dos actuaciones para vídeos para ese album, «Alive» y «Even Flow». Eso fue hace más de 20 años, el negocio era diferente entonces, la idea de hacer vídeo, y hacer que apareciesen en MTV para aumentar el número de ventas, era un auténtico negocio. El Grunge realmente había pegado fuerte por aquella época, así que eran momentos muy provechosos para los vídeos y la música. No creo que estuvieran aprensivos, estaban bastante de acuerdi con lo que escribí. Les dije: ‘No quiero tener a la banda tocando. «Y ellos estaban como,’ Guay, no hay necesidad de ello. ‘Estaban como,’ Bueno, sería genial si Eddie cantase. «Y yo estaba como, ‘Fuck yeah!’ fueron muy favorables y guays, Estuve en el lugar correcto en el momento adecuado, y trabajé muy duro en ese video. Trabajé duro para ponerme con ello, y escribirlo. Todavía me da escalofríos; es una canción jodidamente increíble.

Origins Of The Video
They had made two performance videos from that album, “Alive” and “Even Flow.” That was over 20 years ago, the business was different then, the idea of making videos, and getting them played on MTV to spur record sales, was a huge deal. Grunge had really kind of shaken the cob webs off of the music business, so it was a very fertile times for videos and music. I don’t think they were apprehensive, they were pretty much on board with what I wrote. I said, ‘I don’t want to have the band play.’ They were like, ‘Cool, we don’t even need to be in it.’ They were [then] like, ‘Well, it would be great if Eddie was singing.’ I was like, ‘Fuck yeah!’ They were super supportive and cool, I was just in the right place at the right time, and worked really hard on that video. I worked hard at putting myself into it, and writing it. It still gives me chills; it’s a fucking amazing song.

As much as Cameron strives to keep his bandmates happy, admittedly, he himself continues to seek the joy and inspiration he draws from playing music. “You look at a band like The Beatles, and just how they changed the way people thought—they changed culture, you know? So [music] definitely has an inherent power, and it’s up to the musicians that are making the music to have the truest form of expression that they can to get that direct line into the listener’s brain or heart … it’s not easy, but when it works, it’s fully transformative.” Cameron goes on to say, “I’ve got a couple projects that I’m trying to get off the ground that I’m really excited about because I’m writing a lot of music for it, and we’re collaborating a lot, so that definitely excites me—sometimes more than the bigness of my two bands (Pearl Jam, Soundgarden), you know? Because I love working in those two types of arenas, where everything’s kind of big, you gotta go big, you gotta play big, and big concerts, big production … but it’s nice to go small again, and I don’t ever wanna lose where I came from—which was always super small. [I don’t want] to forget that side of my musicianship, you know? So that still excites me a lot.”
As the father of a son who’s also a musician, Cameron offers this advice, “I tell my son [who’s] a really good guitar player, that he’s doing it for the right reasons—because he enjoys it, and it’s an outlet for him. I try to tell his friends that what happened to me was kind of … you can’t expect that to happen all the time, just because, it was timing—when I moved to Seattle, the timing was correct. So, those types of things you can’t ever plan for—I mean, luck plays a big part in making it in the music industry … but if you start out playing for the love of playing music and getting better on your instrument, then you’ll always have that in your life. And that’s something that’ll never go away, and I think it helps shape a human in a very positive way.”

El cantante de Maroon 5, Adam Levine, parodió al frontman de Pearl Jam, Eddie Vedder, (entre otros) en el último programa de The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon. Levine junto a Fallon estuvieron jugando al “Wheel Of Music Impressions” (ruleta de las imitaciones musicales), en el que un cantante y canción aleatorios son generados en la pantalla y Fallon y Levine tienen que hacer las imitaciones imitando al cantante cantando la canción que les toque. Levine hace la imitación de Eddie Vedder cantando la canción infantil, “The Muffin Man”, en el minuto 4:13.
