"Black" is one of the songs from Ten, Pearl Jam's first album. Next to "Alive" and "Jeremy", this is another fan favorite, and was covered by Aaron Lewis of "Staind" in 2001 for the band's "Break The Cycle" tour. Despite its obvious popularity with fans, as well as pressure from the record company, Pearl Jam refused to make it into a single, feeling that it was too personal and the feeling of it would be lost by a video or a single release[1]. Even though it was not released as a single, the song charted at #3 on the Billboard Mainstream Rock Chart. The song was included on Pearl Jam's greatest hits album: Rearviewmirror: Greatest Hits 1991-2003.
