Society by Eddie Vedder. Dedicated to QuinneGorges, Everything4everyone, Poppopbeat, Brighthelmvellas, and Mr1001nights. Inspired by QuinneGorges question, "Why do you want to destroy civilization?" "Because it's killing the planet!" The song society is based on an amazing story by Jon Krakauer about the adventures of Christopher McCandless. It was recently made into a film. I haven't seen the movie yet. If you have, let me know what you thought about it.
