help Yield FAQ

Which Pearl Jam songs are on Yield?

Yield includes Given to Fly, Wishlist, Do the Evolution, Brain of J., and Faithfull. The album was released in 1998 between No Code and Binaural.

Why is there a red Yield sign on the album cover?

The cover places a real road sign in an open landscape, turning the album title into a visual instruction to surrender control or make way. Yield signs and related imagery also appear throughout the booklet.

Who directed the animated video for Do the Evolution?

Kevin Altieri and comic artist Todd McFarlane directed the video. Its violent historical montage was notable because Pearl Jam had largely avoided conventional music videos after the early 1990s.

Which Yield song was inspired by the Seattle skyjacker D.B. Cooper?

The closing track All Those Yesterdays is not the D.B. Cooper song; that association belongs to Given to Fly only in some fan interpretations and is not established by its lyrics. The album's untitled hidden track is commonly called Red Dot and features Jack Irons.
