Eddie Vedder Covers Bradley Cooper

So I finally got to see “A Star is Born” the other night.  Oh, and Debbie was LOUD WRONG.  It’s a GREAT movie. Of course, by now you’ve all heard…

So I finally got to see "A Star is Born" the other night.  Oh, and Debbie was LOUD WRONG.  It's a GREAT movie.

Of course, by now you've all heard and probably gotten sick of "Shallow."  However, another song from the movie could have easily won The Oscar as well:  "Maybe It's Time" sung by Bradley Cooper.

There are two things that strike me when I hear it.  First, it's a country song (no surprise as it was written by Jason Isbell).  And second, damn Bradley Cooper sounds a lot like Eddie Vedder (lead singer of "Pearl Jam").

Apparently, Eddie must think so as well.

On Sunday night in Tempe, Arizona, Eddie grabbed his acoustic guitar and gave us his best Bradley Cooper.
