This video always reminds me of Beavis and Butt-head watching it and Butthead saying "Woahh, he looks like Jesus." And Beavis goes "Yeah hahaha, Christ is cool" 😂😂
@@Cjopa Yeah, for me that scream in Cochise supplanted Daltrey's in Won't Get Fooled Again as 'The Scream,' in rock music. Still gives me chills every time I hear it.
I was always intrigued by the what people termed "heavy". If the guitar wasn't turned up to 10, if the tempo wasn't fast enough, it wasn't "heavy". Black Sabbbath never played a lot of fast songs, high BPM, but they were heavy. Heavy is tone. Heavy is mood. Heavy is atmosphere. Black Sabbath was heavy. Soundgarden was heavy. When the song needed it, it was heavy.
Depression is not a joke... Look at him he had maybe all things we dream... He was so good looking, talented, cool, a Rock Star, millions of fans, had a family and money but inside we dont know. We miss and love You Chris.
I heard them do that one last on 5/6/17 - just twelve days before he passed. My “seat” was standing in the GA pit - I was STILL feeling the reverb from the rhythm section (Ben & Matt) a full two hours later. It was UNBELIEVABLE.
Chris took Eddie Vedder of Pearl-Jam under his wing and helped him break out of his shell so to speak.....check out Temple of the Dog song Hunger strike ....this band is a collaboration of Soundgarden and Pearl-Jam members including both Chris and Eddie singing together
For me, Cornell was the best thing to come out of the Grunge era. I was lucky enough to see SG 3X's; the first at Lallapalooza in '92 and the last in 2013 for their first reunion at the Tower in Philly. The best, however, was in 1996 at Aragon Ballroom in Chicago, when they were def. at the top of their game. I must say his was the only time I ever shed a tear for a celebrity passing. RIP brother🙏
Man, I really envy that, I'm glad you got the chance to see them. I never got to, and I will always regret it. They've been one of my favorite bands since I was a kid, but the older I get, the more relevant all their music becomes to me. When I heard the news about Chris, it was devastating.
So sad Chris could not defeat depression. He did have alcohol and some drug issues but depression was the big killer from what I see. No expert at all! Luckily he stayed with us for longer than some others and left us with some great music! What a voice he had. The louder and higher he took it the better!
OMG, he was such a beautiful male specimen !!......mmm mmm......and i love his raspy, emotional voice, but every time i hear him sing or just see a pic of him, i get all misty......RIP Chris.
Throw some love at Matt Cameron and Ben Shepherd, too. Matt plays some incredibly complex drum parts and makes them sound effortless. Shepherd helped write a lot of the songs from Badmotorfinger on, and is, as far as I know, the only person to ever sing lead on a Soundgarden song aside from Chris.
@@chrisd7047 Circle of Power from the album Ultramega Ok was written solely by Kim Thayil and (founding member/origial bassist) Hiro Yamamoto, Hiro performed the lyrics.
My favorite song of his is with Audioslave "Like A Stone". The combo of his vocals and Tom Morellos guitar solo is perfect. RIP Chris Cornell you are missed!!
Love Soundgarden... Got into them ever since Loud Love. Been a fan ever since. Cornell will definitely go down as one of the best singers in history. RIP
seems so obvious but when you're THAT guy? I don't know who knows you anymore. One of the nice things about still being normal and having normal friends.
Chris Cornell’s voice is definitely insane, but the rest of the band was incredible!! Another excellent reaction by you!! Your very upfront emotions are refreshing and bring back the first time hearing these songs for all of us!! Thank you!!😊👏
Hello from Brazil 🇧🇷 ! I highly suggest that you hear the following songs: "Blow Up The Outside World" and "The Day I Tried To Live" by them. I mean, Soundgarden is the definition of perfection. They have everything that makes a band spetacular.
I saw Soundgarden open up for Guns and Roses in Philly during the Use Your Illusion tour. Chris Cornell blew Axel Rose off the stage with his vocals. Soundgarden stole the night hands down. Anyone who saw Soundgarden breaking onto the scene in their early days had to have know they were witnessing greatness.
I heard about that show and that tour. Supposedly Axel was doing pretty rough, but that's not to slight Cornell. I'd have lost my shit hearing him in the early days. I mean I love me some November Rain, but...
Love your reaction. You hit the nail on the head with the depression.. Chris had a really bad childhood. His father was an extremely mean alcoholic to Chris and his 5 siblings. I miss him😔
I love your reactions and appreciation for classic music. No apologies necessary for your CYA pauses! Chris Cornell was a beautiful soul with a voice for the ages. It makes me happy when people discover him. Rock on!
Was listening to that song when my mom called me and said that my dad passed away. I felt so much anger and hate towards him, but last year before he died i was thinking that maybe i was wrong at something. I imagined how i say sorry to him and we hug each other and forgive each other. But i was not courageous enought to do that. RIP Dad, RIP Chris
Ahhhh, listening to this, It’s 1991, I’m 18 sat in my bedroom cranking out the badmotorfinger album and my dad balling up the stairs at me to “turn that racket down” 😂 R.I.P. Chris Cornell.
Love this song, but man it’s hard to listen to now, knowing the internal torture he was going through much of his life. So sincere, and very very heavy. I would like to hear a slower acoustic cover of this song.
The best thing about this was simply watching all those emotions being reflected in your facial expressions. Chris Cornell's vocals and lyrics will never cease to amaze people even decades from now, and I hope many more people will experience this amazing reaction when discovering his music. Great video, thank you so much.
Thank you so much for all your passion that you show so willingly to us all! Not sure if you've every seen Chris perform live, but, if at all possible, I would love to see you react to Chris Cornell When I'm Down Live at the Troubadour. It's a fantastic song and shows what kind of passion this man would perform with. Thank you and may music bless your every day! Much love.....
Absolutely love your passion for this track ,especially on a first listen, I got into grunge in my early 20s back in the 90’s Soundgarden blew me away when I first saw them live at Reading festival , I’ve been fortunate to have seen Chris in Audioslave and as a solo artist, he may be gone but will never be forgotten.
Rip Chris Cornell thanks for giving us your unbelievable talent you left us way too soon, may God bless you and your family you will be sorely missed 🙏
His range was ridiculous. He had the "I just woke up" vocals to his "Godzilla roar" range. Please check out "I Am The Highway" by Audioslave. I literally want that played at my funeral. It hits differently.
Found you a few days ago and glad. You feel music. Now...listen to some of his Audioslave music. Cornell's vocals backed by RATM's music. Show Me How To Live, Like A Stone and Cochise.
Chris Cornell, one of the most viceral singers ever ! Raw emotion delivered with angst, fierce power ! Taken from us too soon. Love your spontaneous & genuine reactions Rogue, your awesome !
Your channel reminds me of those great radio shows that don't exist anymore. You know the one where you have the DJ with the great voice talking about each song and really understanding the performers. Man, I can't believe we lost that kind of thing. I may have to hang out here for awhile, ha ha.
Did you already react to his band Temple of the Dog? Check out “Hunger Strike” and “Say Hello 2 Heaven” and another song by Soundgarden “The Day I Tried to Live” please🙏🏻
Chris' death hit many hard including me. Saw SG first in 1994 at the Big Day Out in Melbourne Australia and the last time in 2011 at the SMMB and several times inbetween. Will never forget. Words and music that got me. Understood how I felt und unapologetically belted it out. Cheers to all the good f9lk of humanity. And to the bad folks, get your sh1t together and get on board. We're here waiting patiently for you to come in from the cold.
😭😫😩😪 CHRISTOPHER 😩😫😭😪 I miss him sooooo damn much💔 My favorite Soundgarden song is TIGHTER & TIGHTER. Chris's voice on that song just gets me all........🤫🤭
This song is about Andy Wood of Mother Love Bone. Chris thought this guy "outshined" him as an performer.. We know its not true but Andy is a legend to the Seattle guys for sure!
