So handsome in a Harrison , McCartney way..so unassuming , he loved his family , he loved his wife..he loved his friends ,his bandmates ,and they loved him..he seemed to love life or the idea of it anyway...thats why I sometimes question his untimely demise..We sadly will never know Chris Cornells final thoughts ,his final actions. ..his final words, we just cant ,I feel we as fans all have our personal opinions , but ,no matter if it was suicide or foul play , we cant bring him back...and to me that is almost as tragic if not more than his passing.we have his music ,his songs and what a plethora of memories and talent that includes. He is sorely missed ,by a legion of fans ,here and abroad..and beyond..❤😎☮🎼🎶⚘

he would tell you thats not true...the first comment. To get your ideas across to masses of people and lead people, no matter in what fashion or style...there is always a hint of ego..atleast at a younger age when you are trying to present yourself. I haven't seen it done successfully without it, anyone that wants to be heard forces their way to a certain extent and cut others off to do so...like I said, atleast when starting out or younger ages, he definitely lost quite a bit of that over the years. Humans are weird and we need attention and want our things heard and seen and its just not possible without stepping on toes.

@@oldben1800 Chris said he had some dick headedness like his father. And for those who believe Chris could not do any wrong, he did. Do some thorough searches. Look deeper than surface crap. He always did. I adore Chris. I only discovered him last August. In that time I’ve had 3 dreams of Chris. And they were real. I can tell you, as strange as it sounds, when you tap into his frequency you will get spiritual information that usually arrives in synchronization. Whatever Chris had he knew it was powerful. You can’t be writing lyrics like he did in his teens and 20’s without knowing. Masterful genius who is still spreading his messages today. Chris is forever with us in his energy. Remember that and don’t be sad. But if you are, remember Chris said depression can be fun. ☮️

Being a fan since 1991/1992 (14 years old back then) it's hard to not love Soundgarden, their music was who I heard as the first Seattle sound bands, then soon after Nirvana, AiC, and the rest. It's difficult still after his loss, but I'm very thankful the band has continued working together, and doing their own solo careers. You get to hear what each one sounds like, and why they were able to contribute to the band. It's the secret to the band that each one gave us.

people think a depressed person is a person always sad, that you can tell they are sad because of how they behave on the outside. that isn't depression. depression is something you feel inside. sometimes it overwhelms you and you feel like you can't take it anymore. a depressed person will often put on an act, a fake smile. they may even appear optimistic and excited about their future. this is why I think it was such a shock to people when Chris Cornell killed himself. He actually seemed to be doing great on the outside, but what you see in performances and interviews of him is not the whole picture. he clearly hid his inner struggles and depressed thoughts from the public. though if you look at his songs, it's obvious what he was thinking about. no, he wasn't happy. I think he was an amazing musician, but felt either bored or lost in life. terrible that he's gone. his music still means a lot to me

So what? They were all in a band. Chris is the man who killed himself, no need to take out on his wife. HIs band were too hasty to demand his personal items. Don't blame his own choice to kill himself on his wife. He is dead, and so no one can tell what he wanted other than to die in that moment. Also - now that other aspects have been dealt with in his life, his wife has already said lately that there will be a final soundgarden album, she was not 'with holding' music indefinately, just the band got greedy and impatient. Maybe explains why Chris moved on with his life before, and he did again in death. There was more to Chris than that band, so get over it people. She planned to cooperate just fine in due course.

No, because it’s not hers to keep. Those guys specifically wrote them not just Chris. He was not a solo artist with hired guns. They’ve already laid tracks. Now, what she does have rights to is his personal home recordings and SG’s not asking for that. Heck, his laptop with the masters were with SG and they were nice enough to give that in good faith. They just need the master of his voice. Those songs are already titled, wrote and music. Doesn’t she already have enough money?? Three simultaneous law suits, withholding Lily’s due, etc. If you do some research you’ll discover she’s no stranger to litigation, and has been sued for being a debt beat. Not to mention draining him from invoices through that restaurant and God only knows what else along with those LLCs.
