Soundgarden - Flower [OFFICIAL VIDEO] 

Kim is god.

Anyone who loves Soundgarden surely loves Kim Thayil 🤘🏽

Full yeah Bro

Kim's words took you to, and placed you within, a *_'Room A Thousand Years Wide'_* . 💡

From Chicago. His little sister was at UW-Madison when I was there. She had to deal with Soundgarden nerds hunting her down. I might have been one of those nerds. I have never loved a band the way I loved Soundgarden. I am so grateful for the music they made that enriched my life and educated me. God Bless.

Right on man!! 🙌

I was just thinking, why don't bands make unpretentious videos like this anymore? Good job Mark.

@@Dunbar0740 Thank you, Dunbar 😁

@@Sobermtnbiker Thank you, Julian 🤘

Mark the vocal seems different here than on the original cd I have of Utramega ok....why is that? Thanks!

First time i heard Soundgarden. Was watching this video... 91-92? Went out and bought Louder than Love on cassette.

ChapeuzinhoAUS Same here.

Me too like Chape and Mike. I watched it on "120 minutes" early 90's and inmediatly fall for this "grunge" sound. Way before Nirvana.

ZombieLXXIII nope u fail is in fact rock

ZombieLXXIII it’s rock sound actually grunge sounds a bit different honestly

Siiiiiiii.

17 is an adult

They actually aren’t chords really at the beginning, it’s Kim blowing on his guitar and making the strings rattle

@@tepidtooth8539 whoah

@@JimPoe70 I know right? One of my favorite guitar parts. So imaginative and beautiful.

Mine too!

My nephews turned me on to them when I was 29...AWESOME!! They loved it that their Auntie loved the same music they did!!! SOUNDGARDEN!!

Saw them perform this in a pizza restaurant parking lot in like '88. Also, was at their last show (Detroit). Fucking goddamn bookends.

i swear dude my brain thinks in drop d at this point, too much sg and alice

PS, you're all welcome 😁

Fake

Dude Mike already commented here a full 7 months before you did, stop

Same

He died three days before I was going to see Soundgarden in concert. I cried.

I saw them in Berlin

I saw them in 2012 next day went and saw Mudhoney in the Netherlands..no cap..Soundgarden performed at Pink Pop and Mudhoney at tivoli Utrecht

I saw them twice - once in ‘94 at the armory and in ‘96 at Lollapalooza at Randall’s Island - both NYC. The armory was sweltering hot as it was early summer and we were all super sweaty. An amazing show.

I saw them live in Brisbane, Australia

And Scott Weiland .

And long live Andy !

Santiago Rincón Don't forget Andrew and Scott

If you love them all, Hiro features on Down by the Water by Maki Mae. Have you heard it? ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-IDvzd7xv_qw.html

Good tip. What festival was that? Was it at the Mural Amphiteater?

This song needed louder guitars badly, they sound muted in the original release

Digital recording makes everything sound compressed. At least the drums still sound good, and not augmented by pro tools.

When you add mids to the guitars the bass needs to come up. That did not happen so I give it a thumbs down. Also the original vocal mix did not need to be fucked with. Only the drums needed remixing to get away from the 80's sound. Nothing else.

Hands away from a Terry Date production!

this is the bbc version of it

Why the fuck now? I am so shocked that he is dead.

Yes. Eventhough, Chris is the best grunge vocalist of all time, but more importantly he was an amazing and very kind person.

It was fake

I so agree. Chris was a full range vocalist. He could definitely hit the high notes with no problem. His vocal range was a level 4. That is extremely high as only opera singers can hit the vocals and higher at that level. Freddie Mercury vocals were the highest and above a level 4, but Chris is definitely a close second.

@@tylerspunucious7420 fake what?

Yeah fake what mutha fucker in that I mean literally….. Fake vocal range ? We know it’s not fake video? Why Are you sad because nirvana didn’t bring the first record out among the big 4? I’d really like to know what the fuck is fake about this? People get kinda shitty when you diss a dead legend they love?

Bom saber que outros BRs andam por essa parte do RU-vid ao invés de em Kondzilla e outras merdas, kkkkk

No he wasn't. He wrote and performed on multi platinum records. Does this word really have to be used on every single video comment section?

@@anotherunoriginalcomment 🙄

stan menshic yes god father of rock far from grunge

Nope Mudhoney is. Soundgarden was a epic combination of classic rock sensibilities and Heavy Stoner Rock. R.I.P. To one of rock's greatest voices, Chris Cornell.

@@osiruskat green river was before mudhoney

@@letshugandlove324 although Mark Arm and Stone Goddard was in the band. I was a huge Mother Love Bone fan which also featured Stone Goddard and other members of Pearl Jam but they were borderline funky almost hair metal similar Bullet Lavolta and Jane's Addiction. I viewed Green River as just another post punk hi velocity rock band bordering on metal. Seattle was still very much a metal or sludgy stoner band town. Great bands like Forced Entry were on the way out and thrash was dying down. Might is well Skin Yard in there as well as grunge pioneers. For me the epitome of grunge before it had a name was Mudhoney with that slacky kind of "lazy" vocal style of Mark Arm and the way fuzzed out guitar of Steve Turner. All of those bands on Sub Pop were a true alternative sound to all of the hair metal of the 80's. I remember when Soundgarden first album on SST came out and they were though of the metal vein. Most of the bands on labels SST and Sub Pop from the late 80's and early 90's and Neil Young's Rust album made an impact on the grunge movement of the 90's.

Thomas Calicchio this is actually rock not grunge

How about just Rock n Roll at its best!!!!

Richard Reed yes definitely

Music doesn't have to be heavy to be metal.

Michael Rash it has to at least sound heavy this is in fact rock though

Michael Rash its rock a bit surprised so many think deferent it’s obvious though

It is heavy like a fine dish made with super chilies.

This is metal AND heavy though

Hell yeah it is

Ultramega Ok is the most soundgarden LP
