The River Rise - Mark Lanegan 

The Music of Lanegan has been my Bible for over 19 years. "Whiskey for the Holy Ghost"- will be in my opinion the Bench Mark of his greatness... Love every verse, every note.... the legacy is my heart and soul... I wish you well..

Great song! Gotta love Mark Lanegan's voice.

R.I.P. Kurt I was searching that song since the Hype! documentation back in 1996. Beautiful song!

What a beautiful song...

grande Mark!!!! Kurt R.I.P.

Mark Lanegan sounds like Jim Morrison sometimes, such a dark and emotional music. Great sound... Mark was Kurt's friend, just like Lyne Staley. And Mark wanted to make song House a Home and other songs with Kurt...

one of my favourite songs that I ever heard

this song makes me cry ever.... so ... solo Mark puede hacer esto... Hermoso...

Wow. That was really cool. Lots of photos i haven't seen before and set to the River Rise, i love that song.

we miss you kurt

i am convinced that kurt wrote this. you gotta have one ballad in your musical career

io amo questa canzone...

@Jllyrol311 Thanks man, it was a time I was 20 and tierd of listening to my Dad's albums. Bamb we had are generation of GREAT bands...

@jczother This song was featured in the documentary "Hype" and it's soundtrack, specifically at the end of the film, when it focuses on Kurt's death and everyone in the Seattle rock cummunity's reaction. I think that's why a lot of people use this song as their basis of their Nirvana tribute videos. It's an excellent film, if you haven't seen it.

Mark Lanegan always reminded me of three singers: 1. Kurt Cobain 2. Velvet Underground singer 3. Jim Morrison IM NOT SAYING HE COPIED ANYBODY!!! im just saying he reminds me...

Seattle is haunted by the ghosts of grunge

@jczother Yeah I mean Lou Reed, but i didnt mean voice more in his songwriting. I hear a lot of VU influences. The most striking one is when u compare oh sweet nothing to All that I know

@6shadow6lord6 about a girl and all apologies are not ballads because kurt didnt want them to be. i wouldnt think of him as the ballad type. if anyone is there ballad its their cover of the vasolines jesus dont want me for a sunbeam. or the man who sold the world, also a cover. and i was fully aware that kurt didnt write the god damn song.have a sense of humor.

Fuck yeah! x

@KurtCobainof21 I am sure Mark was greatly influenced by Lou, I think they are very on the edge writers. I love them both and Mark does tribute Nico. Sorry if my words were cross, I just always thought Lanegan was in another league but in the same game. If that makes any since

@numairnj What do u mean you dont see Kurt as a musician???? He was the one of the best of his time

@KurtCobainof21 You mean L. Reed, he used to be in a band called the velvet underground. Sorry I don't hear it.

@lovernamedloveseth milk it is a ballad. totally. and polly

Ian Cobain Kurt Curtis

@FaithIsAnnoyed Kurt couldn't hold Marks cigarette, what the fuck does this have to do with Kurt? Marks one of the greatest ever, Kurt went up like a spark!!!

his sounds quite like cobain in some parts

The guiter dose sounds like Nirvana

@jczother Oh not at all mate. No offense taken at all. We're on the same page pretty much

Not taking nothing form Kurt but what does this song have to do with him?

Whoever put this video together has all their information completely wrong. Mark wrote this song for Layne, it's in his book, I am the wolf.
