"Not For You" is a song by Pearl Jam on their third album, Vitalogy. The song was performed on Saturday Night Live in April 1994, almost eight months before the release of Vitalogy. It was released as a single on March 21, 1995 with a B-Side titled "Out of My Mind". Its chorus is similar sounding to Mondo Rock's "Come Said the Boy". The song was included on Pearl Jam's greatest hits album, Rearviewmirror: Greatest Hits 1991-2003.

Eddie Vedder about "Not For You":
These attitudes out there...that it's the industry's music... And it's not. It's mine. And it's yours. Whoever's listening to it. It's mine and it's yours. And everybody in between, they're the distributors. I think that something like a music channel can be very powerful. Sometimes they think they're the ones who decide what's heard. I think that's a dangerous situation. And, I think, what's more dangerous is that they think it belongs to them. That's probably what "Not For You" is about.[1]
