"'Save You'" was the second single from Pearl Jam's 2002 album, '' Riot Act''. The band played this song when they appeared on ''The Late Show with David Letterman'' in November 2002 in support of ''Riot Act''. The single features the B-side "Other Side", which can also be found on ''Lost Dogs''. The song peaked at #23 on the ''Billboard'' Mainstream Rock Tracks chart. "Save You" was included on Pearl Jam's greatest hits album, ''.
The guitar riff for the song was written by guitarist Mike McCready.[1] During the recording session for the song drummer Matt Cameron lost his headphones. He was able to finish the recording session by watching Jeff Ament's fingers as he played the bass.[2]
Live performances of "Save You" can be found on the live albums ''Live at Easy Street'' and ''Live at the Gorge 05/06''. Performances of the song are also included on the DVDs ''Live at the Showbox'' and ''Live at the Garden''.
Eddie has hinted on occasions that this song is about former drummer Jack Irons and his drug addictions which led him to leave the band after the 1998 Australian Yield Tour. It is also possible that the song is about Mike McCready's struggle with addiction.
When asked in an interview about the cursing in the song's lyrics, Vedder stated:
A music video directed by James Frost was filmed for the song at Seattle's ''Chop Suey'' club in September 2002. The video is a filmed live performance rather than a conceptual video. It was one of five videos shot at the club to promote ''Riot Act'' (including "I Am Mine", "Love Boat Captain", "Thumbing My Way", and "1/2 Full"). Up to that point the band had not made any music videos since 1998's "Do the Evolution".
