"'''Nothing as It Seems'''" is a song by the American [[rock music|rock]] band [[Pearl Jam]]. Written by bassist [[Jeff Ament]], "Nothing as It Seems" was released on April 25, 2000 as the first single from the band's sixth studio album, ''[[Binaural (album)|Binaural]]'' (2000). The song peaked at number three on the ''[[Billboard (magazine)|Billboard]]'' [[Hot Mainstream Rock Tracks|Mainstream Rock Tracks]] chart. The song also appears on Pearl Jam's 2004 greatest hits album, ''[[rearviewmirror (Greatest Hits 1991–2003)]]''.


==Origin and recording==
"Nothing As It Seems" was a single by the rock group [[Pearl Jam]] off their 2000 album ''[[Binaural (album)|Binaural]]''. The song also appeared on ''[[Rearviewmirror: Greatest Hits 1991-2003]]''.
"Nothing as It Seems" was written by bassist [[Jeff Ament]]. Ament plays [[Double bass|upright bass]] on the song giving it a very atmospheric feel. Guitarist [[Mike McCready]] used a Fender Pedal for the song which provided the song with its distorted sounds, which McCready described as sounding "like a plane going down."<ref>Aledort, Andy. [http://www.giventowail.com/new/mike/articles/gw700.php "Aural Exam"]. ''[[Guitar World]]''. July 2000.</ref> The song was recorded using [[binaural recording]] techniques, and was produced by [[Tchad Blake]]. Ament on the song:
<blockquote>It was just a little ditty on a demo that I kind of played some hand drums on, and had this little song. Actually, I spent quite a bit of time with the lyrics, and I think Stone initially said, 'Let's try that one.' There were little sections of the song [where] I definitely heard Mike doing his thing, so I kinda said, 'Hey, man, you need to write a theme for these little sections.' It's pretty cool to see a little song that I wrote being played by everyone. I mean, I can almost kind of stand back and just watch this great band play a song...and take it to a completely different level. Mike and Ed [Vedder], they have that ability where they can really raise the level of anything that they play.<ref>Basham, David.

April 28, 2000.</ref></blockquote>


==Lyrics==
The song was composed by [[Jeff Ament]]. Ament plays [[upright bass]] in the song giving the song a very atmospheric feel. Although the song was not a major commercial success, it has been cited as a Pearl Jam fan favorite. The song was recorded using binaural recording techniques, and was produced by [[Tchad Blake]] and mixed by [[Brendan O'Brien]].
Ament revealed that he wrote "Nothing as It Seems" about his childhood growing up in a rural area of Northern [[Montana]].<ref name="mtv">Basham, David.

<blockquote>It's a little bit reflecting on where I came from...I grew up in really rural area in Northern Montana, and ["Nothing As It Seems" is] looking back at [that]. I think until two or three years ago, I looked back at my childhood as being a fairly utopian situation where I had the freedom to ride my bike around town when I was five years old, and my parents didn't have to worry about anybody taking me and killing me or whatever. In the last couple of years...there have been some things that have kind of allowed some darker things to come to the surface of my childhood, seeing things that I had kind of selectively forgotten for my own mental health or whatever. I had just seen ''[[Affliction (film)|Affliction]]'' and I had just read ''Nine Below Zero'' by this guy, [[Kevin Canty]], all very kind of rural things that unearthed a lot of stuff. ["Nothing As It Seems"] is just kind of what came out. I'm just now starting to actually really analyze what I was talking about...because I still don't really have a grip on that.<ref name="mtv"/></blockquote>

===Lyric Meaning===
Regarding the choice of "Nothing as It Seems" as the band's first single from ''Binaural'', vocalist [[Eddie Vedder]] explained, "With that one we felt like we...weren't trying to fool people. It actually felt like we were offering them something fairly challenging. We obviously respect the audience."<ref>Kaufman, Gil.

May 15, 2000.</ref> "Nothing as It Seems" was the most successful song from ''Binaural'' on the American rock charts. The song peaked at number 49 on the ''Billboard'' [[Billboard Hot 100|Hot 100]], number three on the ''Billboard'' [[Hot Mainstream Rock Tracks|Mainstream Rock Tracks]] chart, and number ten on the ''Billboard'' [[Alternative Songs|Modern Rock Tracks]] chart.
Some believe it could be about [[down syndrome]]

one uninvited chromosome...etc"
Outside the United States, the single was released commercially in [[Australia]], [[Austria]], [[Germany]], [[Japan]], and the [[United Kingdom]]. In [[Canada]], "Nothing as It Seems" charted on the Rock Top 30 chart where it peaked at number two and stayed there for three weeks. "Nothing as It Seems" reached the top 30 in the UK and peaked at number seven on the Australian Singles Chart. "Nothing as It Seems" reached number 98 in Germany, number 83 in [[Switzerland]], the top 50 in [[New Zealand]], the top 40 in the [[Netherlands]] and [[Sweden]], the top 30 in [[Ireland]], and was a top ten success in [[Italy]] and [[Norway]].
"a blanket like the ozone" refers to how that one chromosome protects him from the world and how hard it can be. It also chokes off any deep knowledge connection he could have with others"

In its review of the song, ''[[Billboard (magazine)|Billboard]]'' said, "Pearl Jam has once again thrown radio a curve with 'Nothing As It Seems'." In addition, it was stated, "This slowly unfolding track is moody and dark, marked by guitars that kick off the cut with acoustic strumming, then eventually explode into white-hot squalls.

"Nothing as It Seems"
Song
B-side"Insignificance"

"Nothing as It Seems" is a song by the American rock band Pearl Jam. Written by bassist Jeff Ament, "Nothing as It Seems" was released on April 25, 2000 as the first single from the band's sixth studio album, Binaural (2000). The song peaked at number three on the Billboard Mainstream Rock Tracks chart. The song also appears on Pearl Jam's 2004 greatest hits album, rearviewmirror (Greatest Hits 1991–2003).

Origin and recording

"Nothing as It Seems" was written by bassist Jeff Ament. Ament plays upright bass on the song giving it a very atmospheric feel. Guitarist Mike McCready used a Fender Pedal for the song which provided the song with its distorted sounds, which McCready described as sounding "like a plane going down."[1] The song was recorded using binaural recording techniques, and was produced by Tchad Blake. Ament on the song:

It was just a little ditty on a demo that I kind of played some hand drums on, and had this little song. Actually, I spent quite a bit of time with the lyrics, and I think Stone initially said, 'Let's try that one.' There were little sections of the song [where] I definitely heard Mike doing his thing, so I kinda said, 'Hey, man, you need to write a theme for these little sections.' It's pretty cool to see a little song that I wrote being played by everyone. I mean, I can almost kind of stand back and just watch this great band play a song...and take it to a completely different level. Mike and Ed [Vedder], they have that ability where they can really raise the level of anything that they play.[2]

Lyrics

Ament revealed that he wrote "Nothing as It Seems" about his childhood growing up in a rural area of Northern Montana.[3] In one interview, he called it "a dark, heavy tale" and stated, "For me, it's a song about judgment and not always understanding what is going on with another person."[4] In another interview, he elaborated further:

It's a little bit reflecting on where I came from...I grew up in really rural area in Northern Montana, and ["Nothing As It Seems" is] looking back at [that]. I think until two or three years ago, I looked back at my childhood as being a fairly utopian situation where I had the freedom to ride my bike around town when I was five years old, and my parents didn't have to worry about anybody taking me and killing me or whatever. In the last couple of years...there have been some things that have kind of allowed some darker things to come to the surface of my childhood, seeing things that I had kind of selectively forgotten for my own mental health or whatever. I had just seen Affliction and I had just read Nine Below Zero by this guy, Kevin Canty, all very kind of rural things that unearthed a lot of stuff. ["Nothing As It Seems"] is just kind of what came out. I'm just now starting to actually really analyze what I was talking about...because I still don't really have a grip on that.[3]

Release and reception

Regarding the choice of "Nothing as It Seems" as the band's first single from Binaural, vocalist Eddie Vedder explained, "With that one we felt like we...weren't trying to fool people. It actually felt like we were offering them something fairly challenging. We obviously respect the audience."[5] "Nothing as It Seems" was the most successful song from Binaural on the American rock charts. The song peaked at number 49 on the Billboard Hot 100, number three on the Billboard Mainstream Rock Tracks chart, and number ten on the Billboard Modern Rock Tracks chart.
