It's amazing that despite how much tragedy has happened to Alice in Chains over the years that the remaining members and new members have managed to move on and create excellent music. Of course it's different without Layne Staely and Mike Starr, but gotta admit, they still sound good.
I heard "Black Gives Way To Blue". was to Layne.There were a lot of different artist's that made songs for Layne after he passed.He had a hauntingly beautiful voice that touched my soul.R.I.P Layne.AIC forever!!
Really. I have an old lady who lives nearby who has cancer (mostly overcome now). Her days should be spent in pain and misery, rolling in bed in pure agony. But that doesn't happen. She actually has had the chance to live a normal, painless life, with a shot at dignity. Because she uses morphine daily. It's all the same substance, since heroin is converted back to morphine once it enters your body. There's only *two* options here: either the old lady should be a wreck by now (like Layne), or Layne should be alive and livin well (like the old lady). Since a substance doesn't know morality, it should be having the *same* effect in 2 human bodies. I leave it to you to try to understand what went wrong, what *really* destroyed Layne... We can see that it wasn't the substance itself. So, what was it? Think hard. Think smart. You'll get it.
Alice In Chains closed out ROCKUSA in Oshkosh, WI last year with Jerry singing. Let me just say it was loud like the old days...and just pure orgasmic fucking awesomeness!! Long Live AIC!!!
I loved Layne and Jerry's interplay in songs live and how they'd be really in-tune to each other's voices and singing so that they could do them interwoven together, but for some reason, I love this song because it, to me, shows Jerry's voice away from being behind Layne's.
I don't understand why people give a shit how many people disliked a video. Do you need these 5 other people to agree with you in order to enjoy what you are hearing? I would still find this song pleasing to my ears even if there were 1 million people who disliked it.
man Duval has a few lines in this just like how Layne had few lines in heavens beside you it's mostly jerry in both songs so there really isn't much of a difference bands sounds change all the time just enjoy this normally like you never heard aic before i mean jerry is the one who wrote and writes most of the songs while Layne is amazing and irreplaceable just don't let his absence ruin the experience of aic new music to it after all a lot of those songs are a tribute to layne and it's great it's to me on the same level as old aic stuff
Well, IMHO, Alice in Chains made quite a recovery after so many years retired. There are a lot of bands who came back from their graves interested only in money, and worrying not a bit about music quality.
I just recently really got into alice in chains, it's funny my younger sister loved them before they were so popular, and the song that got me really listening to them is their song nutshell which my sister loved and sadly is now the song that reminds me of her
@@kwahlf Don't be. I work at a group home for children. I meet kids almost every day that have it way worse than my kids. I appreciate your sentiment, it was a f___ed up situation, but the sh_t I see at work makes it pale in comparison.
@@kwahlf When I was a kid my best friends family disintegrated. He became my foster brother. I watch the effects on him right up to the day he shot himself in front of two of my friends and I. One of those friends and my biological brother died in a car wreck eight months to the day later. My ex bailed on my kids on the anniversary of my foster brother shooting himself. I have always tried to help kids who either don't have parents, or their parents are worthless. Most of my daughters friends call me dad. One of them got a PHD in law. She invited me to her graduation not her biological parents. I can't in good conscience call myself a "good man," but I can be a good dad for kids that need one. My daughter is a family therapist, she has 3 degrees including 2 masters. My son is a soldier and won 4 medals in 3 years. I raised them by myself for 16 years. The moral of all this is take your adversity and use it for something good. I lost 8 of my closest friends in 8 years, 5 of them to gunshot wounds, and I witnessed 2 of those shootings. I am very knowledgeable about pain and death, I understand pain and death. I help kids try to deal with their pain, and hopefully keep them from making decisions that leads to death. I have the uncanny ability to feel kids pain, some find it creepy that I know how they feel when they're trying to hide it. I do nothing exceptional, I only do what a person should. I also have never liked accolades for doing what I should. The things I see and hear from kids would make the hair stand up on your head. I do what I can because the gods have given me a skill set that allows me to help kids who are dead inside. Sorry for dumping on you about all this, I find sleep fleeting and get weird when I don't sleep. You have a great day, appreciate every day, because some people, children, live through indescribable hell every day. Everyone who doesn't should be thankful.
I don't mean to be picky,I love Jerry but I would argue that in some way Layne didn't chose the path that brought him lower. In this life, perhaps. I know that we obviously would all love for him to still be around, but I think he more than leveled up in the next life. So in a way he actually didn't go lower.But, Jerry I respect Jerry's take on the situation
I think this whole album is about Layne, and how the band suffered without him, and finally came to terms with his death and the events that led up to it. Jerry Cantrell will never replace Layne, but he has a similar vocal style. You can feel the pain in his voice, as you could feel when Layne sang with the band.
Dr. Junaid Ahangar right, so we make many choices in our life. Good choices, bad choices, choices with little noticeable effect. I think it’s based on Laynes addiction. In the beginning it was a nice high and a good feeling. No one plans for an addiction to overcome them and ultimately end their life.
It means "lower " the the kingdom of God is the first is last. And the last is first. You need to be a servant to be the greatest. Low humbleness. Most people won't choose to be servants and humbleness. They want to be the best and everything easy
I always liked diferent things a lot and then when i had someone "normal" watch it or listen with me it wasn't as good. I think i am over that now though, it doesnt seem to matter i know what i like now! :-) and this is A.O.K.!
Me and my wife had raging hap it with Smoke herion and Crack coank, and i have been with my wife for 25 years. we both been clean for 15 years now, and the night before, we both went to bed. we both pray to ask God and Jesus all the Eagles, please, please, please help us come off drugs and the next day, you would think we both would been ill with dropping from herion and crack coank god and Jesus all the Eagles answers to other pray and god and Jesus all the Eagles took the pain we would been in and we both know that we couldn't do it without god and Jesus all the Eagles and we both been clean for 15 years now and I want to say a big big big thank you god and thank you Jesus, thank you to all the Eagles. When i hered this song, it made me think how stupid me and my hubby were like thank you for this song. And know that all i need life is God and Jesus all the Eagles, and my hubby. I love my husband so much, and he loves me too
But you my son who I dearly love, I will tax your intuition while weighing heavy upon your heart.... for I am ABBA the God of all creation and will lead you not astray but will show you the glistening deserts with a thousand angels unseen.
Wow people are dumb....thinking Layne Staley is singing this. The reason this song sounds like the original AIC is because Layne Staley didnt sing alone. Jerry Cantrell did co-vocals with him and still sings along with William Duvall who replaced Layne Staley. Staley was a great singer but Cantrells voice overpowered his, thats why it still sounds similar.
heres an idea Socrates....... if you dont like the video...dont watch and leave a thumbs down.... instead of crying like a girl and showcasing a self proclaimed superior intellect
I love so much to hear you fuck up one time. It meams alot. Now if wr can get kurt hammit to post a video, where he fuckscup his lyrics. To 5he other musicians, it like your human now. On our level. We dont expect you to get it right every time.. we love you more now. Seriously, lots of love
