Sbeast nailed it

I was there too we'll miss Chris from soundgarden to audioslave he will be remembered r.i.p chris

Like honey poured over thunder

Perfect bro perfect

And 4.5 octave range which is almost unheard of.

Rip Chris Cornell. .no one screams like you anymore. .a savage beauty. .a gentle soul filled with unrest..in a world gone mad

Ron Short I realize how lucky I am to have seen him on his Higher Truth tour a year or so before he passed. I also saw him with Soundgarden. I was in the 12th row and it was one of the best concerts I’ve seen!

Holy, Fuck...no one sings like you anymore, Son. Fucking phenomenal talent. God Bless you in, Heaven. I still cry whenever I hear this but THIS, version?! Holy Hell. 💜💔💜

agree. what a loss. still hurts

saw him in Indy in 2016, i was moved to tears

Always 🙏🏼🤍

Chris will be forever missed ❤

One of the best vocalists ever

Yea

Why?

aahahahahaaaaaaa werd nerd

👏

John - wow man, that’s an emotional experience. Still, one of a lifetime

John - I was there. Emotional. My wife filmed it; kzfaq.info/get/bejne/maqaisaIvMy5l3k.html

Rest in Peace

Sorry for your loss, Brother. She will greet you in Heaven someday.

sorry for you loss.

my condolences

RIP to your mother and chris! May they rest easy in a beautiful place!!!

Well said.

As Jack Black says, he goes through portals

I couldn’t think of a more accurate description

Actually I think him going to take me... im so fkn sad... as never before...

I confess I was lost on a pages of a book full of death..... for the first time i don't feel scared to death.... fck the death....

Nobody can.

Anthony Vincent can.

@@DuchessFerro for sure.. That dude kinda sounds like Chris..

Well I’d say Dave Grohl did a great job performing Like a stone

For all that miss Chris...Please check out Big Wreck/Ian Thornley, you will not regret it I promise you.

Gamma Ray Beam you nailed it! You fn nailed.

stfu

Ha I did something like that...I wont give too many specifics but I almost got kicked out

@@boseifrit5480 i'm listening br

Well said!

+mugflub mine too!

+mugflub yah..but don't forget 'Alex Band' of The Calling

;( RIP

agreed

Yeah he is my favorite rock singer :)

Lane Staley deserves a mention with those names

@@RaeganMaeSlee hell yea

Much love

🎶 " Alone.....Alone...."🎶 is what does it for me 💜

And then you led me on...last verse...omg...l cried

2:15 and then you led me on.....heartfelt

I showed my gf this video and she made me repeat that part like 5 times lol

This whole version gives me chills

Kampsy you meant to say "The Greatest of all time"

Ryu Zaki both are absolutely top notch.

@@duke7143 No, not voice wise

Kampsy Without question! Listen to others sing his songs, then you completely understand how much better he is than everyone else.

@@duke7143 Freddie doesn't have shit on Chris Cornell. Freddie Mercury was just too poppy, Chris conveyed meaning a lot more sincerely. Let alone that Chris is just a fucking God with his belting compared to your precious mercury, cheers. Freddie was great, Chris was a god. Of course to each his own opinion, I can't convince you if you connect more to Freddie's music. To me Chris Cornell is one of the greatest of all time and certainly above Mercury on the list.

No every man, I wish I could do what this genius is doing r.i.p.

Amen

@@captlucky2320 well to be fair heroin boosts the fuck out of the creative juices. unfortunately this effect is overshadowed by the undying need for more heroin in most cases.

it just takes real talent

@@Marmangovig way more needed, many are really talented.

2 yrs later. Yes. He was amazing!

I'm trying to be like that but with German

You don't understand, you had to look for the lyrics

I get ya 😢😇🤟🙏👍

@@cmg.g6175 english is my third language , and i understand every damn word of wht he ´s saying and i admit its a masterpiece.

I will always shed a year for this beautiful man 💔

yes he was one of the best vocalists of all time

It's cause it's a solo. The loneliness depicted by the lyrics is amplified because of the single instrument and the single person in frame. Gives the song more weight, makes it more haunting.

Chris , said this song he wrote was about a man waiting for death- after he saw the death of his many friends before him die- waiting in a room like a stone- I saw this song spoken about in an interview with Timmy C. & Audioslave speaking about Chris's lyrics. 💔

When he says ....reading how we die alone then a slight pause ..... I cried like a baby

How you doing ?

Hugs to you, don't give up.

Stay strong my fellow human.

Keep fighting and stay strong

I am thinking about you.

It's haunting to me.i loved it the first time I heard it.,I know he knew death was.near,but I'm not convinced he took his life

I just heard this song a couple weeks ago. It's my first real song to learn on the guitar. So motivating. This tells me he was welcoming his own death. So sad. He's so talented. I can't think about this song without contemplating my own eventual end...

52.. that's how old Chris was when he took his life, I hope that now his suffering has ended, he can be proud of his legacy, and know what he meant to all of us, I'm glad that more and more people are finding out his true talent, because he deserves the world for what he gave us.

he commited suicide. :{

No you aren't 52 years old.

Fuckin believe it .

Seen him in Glasgow on Higher truth tour... the crowd were in awe... still the best performance I've ever seen! RIP big man. No one sings like you any more

Easily one of, if not the best rock singers there has ever been. His voice is next level. Being a decent singer is an achievement in itself but this guy was gifted. R.I.P Bro.

I honestly can't think of anybody who can touch him. His voice is absolutely beautiful.

Yes, as if he was foretelling his end.

could be about suicide but it seems to me to be more just about death in general. the deathbed part makes me think that. usually suicidal people don't have a deathbed.

I always think of an elderly person waiting for death to be reunited with their loved one whenever I hear this song.

Seemed obvious

@@tiberiius think he thought of his life as a deathbed..as sick and dieing in even the best years of his life..that's true depression right there.

I successfully introduced my 17 year old daughter to this generation of music and she loves it. Genius has no generation.

I'm 40 and I weep like a baby.

Dont worry buddy, it does exactly the same to me.

Sorry for your loss, if I may extend a song to you that has helped me greatly with a similar loss. "In the Woods Somewhere" by the Irish singer Hozier. The human connection with love and death is so complex

Ho my god you just put me in tears what a beautiful message to a loved one, hope she rest in peace and you join her for an eternal love story

I once loved a Scottish lass.. that Celtic love is something else while it lasts. RIP and my condolences.

You're a good man.

Thanks for your remembrance.

You are a lucky man to hear him alive. Thanks

Daniel Ivanov he just kills this absolute perfection .

Daniel Ivanov first time I saw him at Lollapalooza 2 in 1992 with Soundgarden of course , that was amazing when his style / grunge first hit the scene, and introduce the soul too many great talents but I see Chris Cornell as the king

Thanks for talking about that experience. That is a perfect example of how amazing he sounded and, wow...that was after 25 - 30 years of singing too! There just aren't many singers who can sound that good for that long. I'm glad you and the audience gave him the standing ovations, because he obviously deserved that. ✌️✌️👊👊

I am. Man so much raw talent when he was younger then he grew to the legend he is. RIP Chris

Same. Amazing voice

Oath bro

Came here looking for a good cry... Happens every time I hear this man sing ❤️

As a college student, this is a reliever for me whenever I have a hard/stressful week. Hope whoever is listening to this is doing ok.

It's easy to do, friend. I hope all is well with you. Love watching all of these crazy good acoustic performances. His vocal mic technique is fascinating to watch on top of the heart poured into the performances. We are all fortunate to be in this timeline to experience this.

Umm Richie kotzen sounds nearly identical. That said it is sad to see him go.

@@zephirol4638 it's a quote from his song black hole sun.

Newman Becker it’s a double entendre though as well

Jeez. Thanks for making me cry. Guess I'll listen to that next.

@@zephirol4638 What you said it is insulting. Cornell wrote and sang to a different level to that Kotzen plastic poop pop singer

I'm here often, will always be

Keep coming back

I am too!

I am too...

Never seen Chris live before. I don’t know why. Maybe cause I thought he was going to be around a while.

I’m not sure of your age, but I am 41. I grew up listening to bands like Soundgarden (Audioslave was a generation removed haha, but I was still aware of them). I knew Cornell could sing. That was obvious. However, I also had a jaw-drop moment when I started listening to his acoustic work. Man, oh man. What a talent!

same

Welcome to the party pal

This is how Chris lives on, he will never be forgotten

It’s up there with his live performance of “When I’m Down” at the Troubadour in 2010.

Amen brother

Yes Amen indeed 🙏🏼

I am so incredibly sorry for you and your daughter. I can't even begin to imagine the grief.

Heartbreaking Brad. Sorry for your loss. Peace be with you

May your wish be granted!

yeaaaah pretty good

That’s sad, the world is full of sadness. Such songs may help us with our grief .

That's a condenser mic, not a dynamic one so ideal distance is a bit less than a foot away. But yeah, powerful voice!!!

The distance from the microphone varies in the fact of is it a condenser or a dynamic mic. This is a Neumann condenser so he has to be farther away. Cornell is, in my opinion, the greatest vocal in rock when it comes to technique (favorite in sound is Layne Staley).

like a king he left wtf your comment is contradicting

This comment has new meaning today

Jimmy J looking back now, it was a prophetic comment.

Danny Reneau it sure does... I'm at a loss for words...

happyjolly77able I feel like this Song, Fell On Black Days and Nearly Forgot My Broken Heart define his passing now.

Jimmy J Very sad :/

But then it's easier to play xd

I do the original key!

@@gatomaneixon se supone que chris es baritono, asi que no

Oh yeah....what an amazing range he had! I guess for some singers "easier" is just where they sound their best.

2 steps up brother

Amen.

How are you?

hes not dead forever.. john5: 28 , 29 he will rise in the great resurrection and live on earth, once again to live with his family

filuferru never gone forever. Will always be with us forever.

Chris was awsome in all those bands and in solo. Both bands were 2 of my favourites bands of all time. They had great names (and it's rare) with significant and simple meaning (thanks to Chris) and amazing songs that sounded like no one else. I would love your input on the first video of my first album. It got the attention of one of my heroes Joe Bouchard (ex bass player founding members of BÖC) but returns from people who likes same music is always the best. If you have just 3 minutes to listen and a bit more to comment, that would mean the world to me : kzfaq.info/get/bejne/htuPo5Sox8enkWw.html and our special cover of Madworld : kzfaq.info/get/bejne/ns6eer2E05OalGg.html Stay safe and keep rockin' !

Hello beautiful Angel ❤️❤️❤️❤️ How are you doing today 💖💖💖💖

Romulo Ferreira amazing phrasing so sad we'll never hear anymore new music from him.

I hope nobody ever does. I truely don't think it's possible. He was one of a kind...the reason why he's a legend. I still feel a hole in my gut every time I see or hear his music. The Man's music is his soul. I'm extremely grateful that his music will always be in mine. I can't even imagine how many hearts and souls of others that he has touched and will forever remain within. I say "I know you're at peace wherever you are. You may be gone from this life, but wherever your soul may be... I'm sure your talent and love for music is still inside". An old soul always comes back....only better.

Very well said I cannot think of any words to contribute. I’m just sad still and grateful when hearing his voice....

Patrick Williams I feel you!

Exactly......perfection. He is coming to Dallas solo this Summer. I gotta try and make it.

WarrenBarca indeed

James DeLavan did you make it?

That's my question too. Did you? I got to see Chris with Soundgarden way back when we were all young. In Tampa,Fl. at the Sun Dome. They opened for Guns N' Roses and I only wish now that I'd of gotten to see him while he was touring his solo/acoustic stuff. I liked Soundgarden, and I liked some of Audioslave's music, but I absolutely love all of Chris Cornell's. What an absolutely amazingly, talented human being that will be forever missed by a very large group of other human's that could only dream of being as blessed as that man's family & friends to have been apart of his life, little lone breathe the same air as him. Beautiful inside and out! A truly, unbelievably, talented, unmatched in soooo many ways, from his pure and open heart to the deepest, darkest, and dearest depths of his soul, beautiful man. rips Chris, we still miss you, we will never forget you. Ever! One of his biggest fans since 1990. Guns N' Roses should of been opening for Soundgarden/Chris Cornell. Absolute best vocal/lyrasys to Grace this Earth. The voice of an Angel with a heart of a lion!

Myhra RIP Chris, love you 🌹😢😘😘

Agreed but why

one the greatest songs ever written

@@mikeseaquest9246 Yes I agree

Totally agree with you. This song is a masterpiece and Chris Cornell is the best I've ever heard

cheer up homes

Ya because because uh lock down......derp

Hello Maureen, How are you doing?

True

He still is to this day

With Chester Bennington, miss both of them

This was peak Chris Cornell and it's f'ing amazing. I hope I get to hear him again in the next one. 🙏

Good of you to never forget... But who could?

I hear that.

You can say that about a dozen of Chris Cornell's performances. He was the greatest
