YimYames'Cape Posted August 15, 2009 Share Posted August 15, 2009 I know "Corduroy" by Pearl Jam and "Heavy and Hanging" by Patterson Hood are supposed to be about Cobain. I think you're thinking of "Immortality" by Pearl Jam being about Cobain, supposedly. "Corduroy" is about Eddie dealing with fame and hanger ons. 4/16/02 by Pearl Jam about Layne Staley. Also, I've heard "Can't Keep" off of Riot Act is about Elliott Smith. On the Live At Benaroya Hall album Eddie says "This one's for Elliott" prior to playing it on the uke.
