"Thumbing My Way" is a song by the rock group Pearl Jam off of their 2002 album, Riot Act. Drummer Matt Cameron revealed to lead singer Eddie Vedder, the writer of the song, that he considers it the nicest chord progression Vedder has come up with.[1]
[edit] Music video
A music video directed by James Frost was filmed for the song at Seattle's Chop Suey club in September of 2002, though it was merely a 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", "Save You", "Love Boat Captain", and "1/2 Full"). Up to that point the band had not made any music videos since 1998's "Do the Evolution".
