Have heard several different versions of Pearljam performing BOR 

(have a CDR with two different versions, Naked Eye, Let my love open the
door, My generation, and a great verion of The Kids are Alright) 

and I have to say that they definately do a pretty good job.  The best part
about it is the enthusiasim that Vedder gives it compared to a lot of his
own stuff.  A link to one of their more poorly recorded versions of the song
can be found at http://www.fivehorizons.com/songs/july98/index.html

What's more I have to say that I hate Third Eye Blind with a passion, they
are a great example of how gay music has gotten lately.
