"Black" is a song by the American rock band Pearl Jam, featured on their 1991 debut album, Ten. Written by lead vocalist Eddie Vedder and guitarist Stone Gossard, "Black" is a deeply emotional ballad that deals with themes of love, loss, and longing. Although it was never released as a single, the song quickly became one of Pearl Jam's most beloved tracks, resonating with fans for its raw, heartfelt lyrics and Vedder's powerful vocal delivery.

The song's haunting melody and introspective lyrics capture the pain of a broken relationship, making "Black" a standout track on an album filled with hits. Despite pressure from their record label, the band refused to release "Black" as a single, believing it was too personal to be commercialized. This decision only added to the song's mystique and appeal.

"Black" has remained a staple in Pearl Jam's live performances, often considered one of their most emotionally charged songs. Its impact on the grunge movement of the early 90s and its enduring popularity continue to solidify "Black" as a timeless classic in rock music history.
