+ghee4345 Yea, they did done got there faces melted.

true

NOT TRUE

Yes, Chris was probably the best rock singer in history. And Soundgarden, all four, kicked some fking serious ass.

Robbie williams.

Your right Josh!

+drewfuss2006 yup

I see what you did there and it even made laugh! Kurt was a badass in my book but when it comes to vocals? Well we all know the answer here!

I have heard people say that Cornell is just screaming here. I challenge anyone else to even sing first four measures when he starts his screaming. He is a bad Motherfucker.

+Ashley Morrison falsetto

FNBerg744 not a falsetto.

LISTEN TO "CHILD IN TIME" BY DEEP PURPLE (studio version 1970). Listen to that entire album ("In Rock"), to hear THE TOP SINGER in hard rock / metal, ever: IAN GILLAN! You're welcome!

Amen brother

Chris definitely is in the pantheon of the greatest. But it would be hard to claim he is better than Bruce Dickenson of Iron Maiden or Dio. They are all peers. I think each would be honored to be in that company.

And my great cousin

​@@mushroomcloud1 It's kind of hilarious and a bit sad just how few people know about the truly legendary rock singers like Terry Reid and Steve Marriott - even Rod Stewart. Robert Plant is still the best, but at least everyone knows who HE is.

That's some vocal leaping I wouldn't dare try! At least not in a single bound! :)

+KrispyKreatin I'm hearing E flats.

song is in D

There's no E5 in this performance. His high notes here are D5 and Eb5. On the album version from 1988 he's also hitting F5.

@Marin Isn't he singing an F5 around 3:08? Anyway, this performance was great, but the Showbox version from 2010 is the best post-reunion version in my opinion. Check out some Beyond The Wheel versions from 2017.. he was still very much on point. RIP Chris.

Not anymore

+Sugar Johnson Hear, hear. :)

such an underrated song... its a shame...

Thanks, old fart:)

absolutely motherfucking godhead awesome.

Check this version!!! kzfaq.info/get/bejne/eLmUis5_m8i7ZZ8.html

Oh how I wish that were true ....i fear the whole game ends right here though :(

@@alwynsam5349 Sad to say I think you might be right. Sadder still , I wish I could believe there's a heaven where my deceased son lives on.( He was 35, shot and killed on 3-23-11. Great guy, Had no reason to think he was in danger.

@@patriciasalvatore2394 Oh I'm so sorry, Ma'am...can't imagine what you have been through...dealing with loss is the hardest thing one has to face in this life at some point or the other..the manner in which it happened to you must have made things far worse...I know it's always going to hurt but I do hope that you have found some measure of peace...take care of yourself...

@@alwynsam5349 He was the one who brought us together. My son was unconventional in many ways, but respectful, kind, helpful would describe him as well. The incident was entirely brought about because of a woman's love of drama. Roland Salvatore was my son's name. The Good Kind was a band he was in. And Root Skankadelic ( that crazy weird name. Lol) He's on KZfaq so I can see photos. Unfortunately, someone borrowed the one CD that had his djembe drumming on it and now say they didn't borrow it. Listening to the drumming from his hands, his energy, gave me some peace, drumming, no voice, no words-- it was healing to hear his drumming.

@@alwynsam5349 Thanks for taking the time to read and reply with such compassion. Really, it helps me to deal with it.

If only 😢

"Gun" isnt that bad neither :)

Fredrik Häll I also like Big Dumb Sex

Lyrics are irrelevant when you can belt them out like that.

Ken Cummings but when you do know the lyrics, this song is a million times more epic

+Chance Oviedo Preferences, I guess. Do not get me wrong, I love his work with Audioslave. It is just that his voice here seems to find its form back just like in the early SG days, at least in my humble opinion.

So he hit it hard the first album and at the same time had problems with drugs, alcohol, and smoking. Basically each Audioslave album is coming off something and then afterwards he had time to heal up and work at getting it back.

Timliu92 I think he sang that way on purpose in Audioslave. He still had the range. You could hear it in Moth or Show me how to live but I think he liked the raspiness that his voice got.

Timliu92 sometimes he just wouldn't even attempt to do those high notes live...even in the 90s!

He definitely struggled live during the Audioslave years. Not sure what he did, but around 2009/2010 he started killing it. May have had lessons on how to properly use/maintain his voice without blowing it out on tour.

Best rock singer of all times. No one will ever sing like him like he did between ‘90 and ‘94

He’s an awesome singer, but don’t disrespect God (The Christian Holy Trinity) with such idolatrous comments. Idolatry is a grave sin that places souls at risk of eternal damnation in Hell if one doesn’t repent/receive forgiveness for one’s sins prior to death. Peace!

kurt wasn't only the face he was the voice, as much as I like Chris

I liked Nirvana but Cobain never lived in the same solar system as Cornell, not even close.

Brian Jones Layne Staley is far, far better

SpaceOrbison No.

Existential Agreed

He lives on in our hearts and his music. 💖

Totally.

both are really good singers Myles is my favourite from the two but I love Chris Cornell a lot.

Shave Your Face no, sorry to say Myles can sing and sustain higher than Cornell. Their sounds are different due to their voice types, Chris being a baritone with a four octave range, and Myles being a tenor with a four octave range. Chris's sound is fatter and it weighed on his cords during his final performance a little. Myles is still doing amazing. nonetheless, Myles can never beat Cornells lower register, the Blues sound is strong. Rest in Peace Cornell, you fucking legend sir \m/

+Nas Jalil im a Slash fan to the grave. but ive not a care for even half a song that miles sings on. CC is his,own entity

FNBerg744 to each his own, respect to the legend still

By an exercise band....

For real....10 months later and it still feels like yesterday we heard the news....No greater voice has ever sung....

#justiceforchris!

@@skynyrdnemoy2418 It's called a greedy wife who had him murdered by MK. Allegedly of course. And there is no justice for Chris, but who did it is still walking free. 😢👍✌❤💯

Teri Cheaves Damn Right, Teri. He didn’t leave this planet by his own choice. #justiceforchris !!!

He lives on in our hearts and his music. 💖

You might do if they release the album he finished!

Sahir Khan we probably won’t thanks to that moron Vicky

Brian Jones I don't need a "safe space" but there is such a thing as decorum.

Brian Jones I didn't say anything about feeling sorry for him.

Someone hung him. It wasn't him. Same for Chester. Fucked up evil people don't want any whistleblowers.

That's you, genius.

Dude seriously you a fool.

Every time I come back to this, I think to myself, *"How in the fuck did a baritone sing this?!"* & YES... Cornell is most definitely a baritone.

The rest of the band always seemed to match Chris' energy when he was killing it
