Chris was such a genuine guy. He would engage with strangers and talk at length all day long which is why he had to have a handler. You could even tune in to a radio station that was interviewing him live, on the telephone, from his house, and hear him going on and on about a lot of stuff. He is such a people person in that regard. He cared about his fans so much that he made that music video: "I Almost Forgot My Broken Heart" so that they wouldn't be deceived into, or think about, doing the copycat thing.

My buddies and I were in a garage band in the 90’s. We tried covering Black Hole Sun; it was impossible. It’s at a glacial pace, switches time signatures innumerable times, plus Cornell’s stratospheric vocal range, and Kim Thayil’s solos. Sometimes you are forced to admire things from a distance.

@kendarsin 3 месяца назад

The song that I related to the most was "the day I tried to live". It had a different slide piece in the beginning as black hole sun and I thought it was the better song of the two. I'd love to hear the bands take. Also. These interview are pure gold. Love this channel.

@hamonthecob 3 месяца назад

Man it’s wild to hear that Tighter and Tighter could’ve been on Superunknown. That song is absolutely a vibe, and matches the rest of Down On The Upside perfectly. I’m glad they held it for that album. Doesn’t match the feel of Superunknown at all. It’s so good.

@PerfectCircle91 3 месяца назад

With Soundgarden being my favorite band and almost impossible for me to pick a "favorite" SG song, Tighter and Tighter is something that when I hear it I CANNOT help but weep every damn time. Actually Soundgarden makes me weep ALL THE TIME and I don't even know why.....

@adamschaeffer3614 3 месяца назад

Matt's snare/tuning is just so sweet. The sustain on it could fold almost any groove back into the pocket by itself. It sounds like you could play right on the beat and still get a slight slowing effect in the final outcome. Its just not in any kind of hurry whatsoever, just taking its time to get there. Which perfectly fits the psychedelic nature of this song.

@RH-xs8gz 10 дней назад

This just confirms what a singular talent Chris Cornell was. Not only was he the greatest rock/metal singer to come along in the last 50 years, but he was also a genius songwriter. His death was a huge loss for the music industry.

I read an article years ago about Chris Cornell. The writer was gushing about how Chris’s vocals matured with bad motor finger - used more of his range. If I could have responded to that article, I would have pointed out that Ben shepherd did background vocals starting with that album. Chris’s angelic voice over Ben’s deep, grungie tones were amazing. The dynamic between the two really shines in Rusty Cage, Spoonman, and Burden in my Hand. Those are just the ones that come to mind in this moment, but I always loved Cornell’s highs layered with Shepherd’s lows.

I used to see Layne all the time.

Agree with Michael Beinhorn, Tighter & Tighter is one of my favorite songs ever, is the song that came to my mind, and i listened the day Chris Cornell died, because of the line "Sleep tight for me.

Tighter and tighter is probably my favorite Soundgarden song, and Soundgarden being my favorite band that's a HARD thing for me to do and pick a "favorite" SG song.

Then after college I was lost musically. I finally found my way back to Chris with his solo stuff and Audioslave. Long story short, I suffer from a lot of the same things he did and he's my all time favorite singer. He could cover Zeppelin, Michael Jackson, Lennon, Sinead flawlessly. He was a complete badass. Norah Jones did a 7 1/2 min piano cover of Black Hole Sun in the same theatre just a few days after he died. If he's not your thing I get that. I kinda just wanted to share my story. I also find TM's guitar a bit too much at times.
