down in a hole - alice in chains (cover) by alicia widar 

I was in prison in 1995 and listened to a guy sing this from the cell across the tank from mine. Was the most moving thing I'd heard in my life, but you have rivalled it, thank you!

Young artists with old and beautiful souls are drawn to the melancholy honesty of grunge. Thank you for keeping it alive.

I love seeing the younger generation appreciate the music of my generation. Alice in Chains is one of my favorite bands. She did an amazing job. She has some real talent.

I listened to this cover for a month everyday while their was active war in Ethiopia. It helped me through it. Thanks, Alicia.

Really clean.

Wish this was on spotify, recorded exactly like this but longer. Her style puts me in a hazy trance…

Bury me softly in this womb I give this part of me for you Sand rains down and here I sit Holding rare flowers In a tomb, in bloom Down in a hole and I don't know if I can be saved See my heart I decorate it like a grave You don't understand who they thought I was supposed to be Look at me now a man Who won't let himself be Down in a hole, feelin' so small Down in a hole, losin' my soul I'd like to fly, but my wings have been so denied Down in a hole and they've put all the stones in their place I've eaten the sun so my tongue Has been burned of the taste I have been guilty of kicking myself in the teeth I will speak no more of my feelings beneath Down in a hole, feelin' so small Down in a hole, losin' my soul I'd like to fly but my wings have been so denied Bury me softly in this womb Oh I want to be inside of you I give this part of me for you Oh I want to be inside of you Sand rains down and here I sit Holding rare flowers in a tomb (oh I want to be inside of you) Oh I want to be inside Down in a hole, feelin' so small Down in a hole, losin' my soul Down in a hole, feelin' so small Down in a hole, outta control I'd like to fly but my wings have been so denied

I love when people just sit in their room and sing songs, it brings me back to the good ol days of youtube! Great cover my friend 👏

Someone get this girl a record deal,, she’d be amazing

A unique voice. It's the perfect blend of youth and maturity in a way I cannot articulate. Energizing and haunting simultaneously.

You showed this song the respect it deserves....Nice job...And thanks for keeping these classics alive.

this is hands down the best cover of this song I've ever heard. Not just because of how good it is, but how you actually made it your own with the different pitches. Respect.

Grunge cover by a teenager in 2020... God bless, there's still hope for this world!

Honestly wish this cover was on Spotify. It’s really cool

As a huge Layne and AIC fan it really hits different to see myself grow and the youth discover their music.

Phenomenal talent. All your covers are amazing but this one really tugs at the heart.

This is Alice watching Alice playing Alice in chains. Lol.

Alice in Chains was one of the greatest bands of all time. Love your version. Beautiful.

She sings like an angel...

Nice to see young people who like Alice in Chains! This world has hope! Nice work, kid! 👏👏👏👏

Man this hits so good. She killed it. Pure talent.

I don’t know what is it but when i listen to Alicia, i feel like something divine is singing a song. I feel like this is what a divine being would sound like, it’s awesome.

Suddenly being down in a hole doesn't feel so lonely anymore

For the people in the comments that havent tried guitar before, singing and playing at the same time is actually hard as hell this is a super cool cover dude

that first “ooooh” was angelic

I love the tone of your voice! Beautiful cover!

Quite possibly one of the best bedroom covers of Alice ive ever seen . It sounds a little like Mazzy Star covering Alice . Looking forward to your success.

Man I love this version . Wish this was on Spotify 😭

If Jerry heard this, he'd be proud and impressed. If Layne can hear you from heaven, he'd smile down on you.

do I listen to this every day? Yes. Do I regret it? No.

She would crush any cranberries cover. Edit: went thru her uploads and well, she indeed crushed it

This has like a haunty enchanting vibe to it and I love it! beautiful cover

Beautiful 🤘🏼🖤

This song hits home everytime wish I never tried that boy. Been clean 2 years at least. Great cover.

LOVVVVVVE your rendition !!! Your voice so beautifully encapsulates the pain and the sadness of the very words themselves …. 💔

I'm like 27 and been playing guitar for past 10 years, I haven't been able to find passion with it recently, When I watch an enthusiastic person as yourself, smashing out these classic songs on a simple acoustic while singing, It's just really cool and I wanted you to know that it inspires me to do the same kind of thing and have fun, so thank you for that :)

I didn't expect anyone could cover the song with that quality. Huge talent

This is incredible! I love this cover! It’s haunting, sad, almost otherworldly, and yet beautiful as well.

Typed in “ grunge “ while drunk at 4am… wasn’t disappointed, well done luv 🤘🏻

I almost forgot to watch this today

1:45 omg I love how you stretched "I'd like to fly" like that. With your voice it's sounds so magical. I know it's super small thing but these are the ones that super get me

That mic effect is awesome and absolutely sets the energy for this!! Wonderful performance

Your covers give something beyond nostalgia. Genuinely incredible this cover.

Just found her channel. She plays all my favorite music. wtf

I think you’d do a great cover of Nutshell

Its all rhe unseen hours that i appreciate!!! Been on bass for 30 years and takling vocals later in life . Its a true joy!

Dude, you got some talent. I mean I love these originals and been a fan for so many years but you uphold the quality from start to finish.

I absolutely LOVE this! She has such a natural and haunting voice that pulls at you...Like he did...most covers you can see the struggle with trying to sound like Layne... this one is different, she hits the notes and makes it look effortless, but in her own way. ❤

Girl has both good music and anime taste

Amazing voice!!! Gave me chills! Great job and awesome guitar tone and strumming!!! Bravo!

This is great, thank you for this. Got a chance to hear Alice In Chains live once; and hearing an acoustic version with a female tone is incredible. You did marvelous! Very inspirational.

Down In A Hole has definitely got to be one of my favorite Alice in Chains songs. There’s just so much simplicity in the instrumental and beauty in the vocals. Layne Staley was an amazing soul. Great cover man! Definitely checking out your other content!

Beautiful! Im a die hard AIC fan and you did this magnificently! I've never heard anyone sing this so good except Layne!

Um, well, I didn't know what to expect but you did this song justice. I grew up in this era and there was nothing like AIC. Thank you for posting this.

so clean!! perfect, that's amazing

Having experienced Alice In Chains in the 90s (and listening to this song when I was about 14 years old - I’m 42 now) I can say you’ve done a spectacular job. I love your voice!

accidentally clicked on this song, best accident I have ever done in my life.

Absolutely beautiful. Gotta be the best cover I've heard to date. Love the harmonies you use to complement the guitar. Plus very clean playing. I wish I was that clean.

I see why this has millions of views. Great cover.

She sings like an angel, plays guitar and to top it off she is gorgeous as hell

I really like this cover. Kinda of a Mazzy meets Alice type of sound.

RU-vid: "Hey, want to see a beautiful redhead sing the hell out of one of your favorite songs?" You know me too well, RU-vid.

I love the the vibe your voice gives to the song and the echo of the sound on your room.. makes it really such an experience..

I believe we have a winner here. Excellent playing technique a beautiful voice and as a bonus,she's totally gorgeous. ❤

I clicked this with reasonable expectations, and they were beyond exceeded. This is amazing. I have listened a few times through now and everytime it ends, I still feel wrong clicking off of it.

It's not a depression, it's our soul calling for some rest and calm...

One of the best covers that I have heard so far. Her voice...it just works.

1 of the best covers I’ve heard of this song! Much Respect.

The melancholy hits different when you can remember listening to this when it first came out on your walkman, late at night, in the dark.......hits really hard.

This genre of music needs to be revived. You are a rare, real soul bringing emotion back to life. There is so much destined for you 🎶🐺

This is possibly the best cover of this song I've ever heard

I listen to this more than the original. Beautiful!

This girl has a lot of patience... She's a Hunter x Hunter fan

Hello Alicia I just want to take this time to express how much I actually enjoy this cover since I've heard it a few days ago! Out of all of your covers I think this is the best by far! Keep doing what you're doing!

Her gentle voice give this music a new aura...

Wtf? That's actually an amazing cover. Love when youtube recommends me random stuff that turns out to be amazing 👏 🔥🔥

Two years later I'm back listening to you play down in a hole again. Yep, your voice... Its on such a finer level. And your strumming and timing are so good. Thank you for all of your performances and sharing your talent. They are so emotionally moving. Much love and good wishes to you.

A talented young lady, for sure. This is one of my favorite AIC tunes, thanks for doing it justice!

The true story of Layne's death is so tragic and sad. I'm 44 and grew up at the height of this song n my best friend (Jim) at that time passed away exactly like Layne did back in 2017 and the last time I talked to him was back in 2011 and I had just lost my current best friend (Bill).. So I was animated and pissed off at him for putting his mom thru his drug n alcohol abuse n it was the last time that I ever talked to him and the last time that I ever seen Jim was 3 nights b4 Bill died back in 2011. I have so many memories of these guys n u singing this song makes me really miss being young and having fun with those guys. Thank u

The lyrics to this song breaks my heart every time. RIP Layne.

These are the kind of covers that I love as much as the original. Your voice and playing is so beautiful. ❤

Wow! Way to go, killer cover 🤘🏻

Great singing

I love how she puts a little Layne vocal twinge on her singing, without going full copycat amazing stuff

This was absolutely beautiful 🤩 thank you so much!

This is my go to for covers of this song. Outside of the actual band, I feel it is one of the best versions of this song that exists and I just want you to know that. Hope your still putting out stuff to this day.

Welp, didn't expect to spent this evening with goosebumps. Threw me right back to being in my gf's candle-lit room back in the 90's, when we used to smoke, play guitar, and endlessly listen to music into the early hours. It's not easy doing Alice in Chains songs, and as a massive fan of theirs I can honestly say this is the best cover I've ever heard. Proud someone is keeping grunge alive, rock on :) PS. Don't know if you've covered it already, but I'd love to hear you play "Plush" by Stone Temple Pilots.

That horrible feeling when youll never have a girlfriend who sings depressing grunge songs to you Edit: wtf how does a literal rip off of a comment get so many likes?

Damn. This was on point. 🖤 Amazing voice!

One of my favourite songs, and beautifully done. Great voice.

The 90's are back 🙏

I like the fact that this sounds so raw, yet so polished at the same time. I could literally close my eyes and die to this. This is so peaceful, but haunting, in a good way.

Your rendition of this makes me think back fondly of the 12‐24 hour shifts in my machine gun pit. You don't question much when you're in there, but when you revisit that place in your mind, you feel frozen while your mind moves a mile a minute. What I mean to say is, thank you.

Bravo! That was amazing! Layne would be stoked!

I dig the "empty hallway" acoustics you put on there. Kinda feels like you're actually trapped in a hole & an angelic voice is guiding your way back up. This is what RU-vid was made for.

This is the imaginary girlfriend I never had but pictured being with in my teen years, growing up in the 90's.

Sooo cuuutteee!!! Keep It going sweetye!!!!

Beautiful voice and this is one of my favourite songs. I needed to hear it today - thanks

The perfect girl doesn't exis-
