As I take this dive into Grunge music, I've yet to hear any of Scott Weiland's voice who I've read and heard is fairly important in this movement. And once again we go straight to a newspaper clipping. Plush was loosely based off an article Scott read about a girl who was found dead having been kidnapped years before. He also related this to a failed relationship. And now we go deep to find our own meaning!
Join professional opera singer Elizabeth Zharoff, as she listens to Stone Temple Pilots for the first time, performing "Plush”.

Scott Weiland said the following story behind this song to VH1's Storytellers, "A girl was kidnapped and then later found tragically murdered back in the early part of the '90s. So it gave me fuel to write the words to this song. However, this song is not about that, really; it's sort of a metaphor for a lost, obsessive relationship."

Scott's voice was so refreshing when STP came on the scene. After years of male rock vocals moving in the direction high pitched screaming hair-metal singing, here was a guy (along with Vedder) who's style and range hearkened back to 70s male singers with rich, booming voices like Terry Kath of Chicago.

Saw them on tour with Flaming Lips and Butthole Surfers in ....93? maybe 94? They were great live. Seeing this makes me wish I could revisit that era. It was a great time. Metal was still a thing, Grunge was sort of meeting its apex, and there was SO much cross over between so many genres. Not to mention kids still liked music which was played on real instruments and wasn't destroyed by autotune and over production.

@marcospman9396 2 года назад

STP's 'Core' is one of those 'perfect' albums that has absolutely no bad songs, impressive production and musicianship, plus the incredibly distinctive voice of legend Scott Weiland. The 5th track 'Sin' has been a personal favorite of mine since I got a cassette copy of Core as a requested X-mas gift in 1993 (4th Grade -ha). Still have that cassette today actually...still a favorite album!! Timeless music... and Plush is one of the few songs that I can hear a thousand times and it just never gets old!!

@imcrazedandconfused 2 года назад

Although "Interstate Love Song" is a great song, my all-time favorite by STP will always be "Dead and Bloated". What a slow doomy banger! Scott Weiland also was a very impressive, expressive, extraordinary live performer, very rewarding to watch. He is excessively into it, like Joe Cocker on hallucinogens. Scott Weiland and Eddie Vedder IMHO have so much soul of the 60's in their vocals, and their bands have beautiful bass lines that form secondary melodies that vary a lot and substantially add to the harmonies, which produces a special kind of tension, while the guitar is more mainstream inbetween. The nasal quality of the vocals also is based on 60's music IMO. They also experiment a lot with rhythm to produce really groovy feelings. That is, what makes grunge so interesting, it is a lot of experimentation involved that brings quite different older genres into heavier music. Nice to see, that it does not fail to move people still. Great reaction and great points made in your analysis and observations. :-) Please continue your journey into heavier music genres of all kind, it is a lot of fun to watch.

@alanclarke8117 2 года назад

Scott Weiland was a national treasure for all rocking baritones, with a voice that was powerful when needed, soft when needed and could display all the emotion he damned well wanted to. He was probably the closest thing America had to Canada's Burton Cummings, who I feel is a Hall of Famer. Sadly, Scott burned out instead of fading away, but at least he left a wide legacy of great tunes. The DeLeos can craft riffs like few others and many STP songs are catchy grunge-pop. "Plush" is their most varied highlight and arguably their best song. If you love "Plush", you'll probably love mellower but still jarring "Creep" (definitely NOT the Radiohead hit). But for me, STP is ravers "Wicked Garden" (my fave), "Sex Type Thing", "Naked Sunday", and "Dead And Bloated" [but I play D&B at x1.25 or x1.5 speed on RU-vid :) ]. ALL of these are on the sterling 'Core' initial release, which kills, start to finish. But with Scott, there's more, lots more. 'Purple', practically just as good as 'Core', offers raver "Vasoline", mellower-varied-"Plush"-like-song "Big Empty", poignant "Still Remains", and the immortal, folk-tinged "Interstate Love Song" (prolly my 2nd fave, but with STP it's hard to pick). 'Tiny Music' had its share of good songs, but none captured me like the first two releases. Try "Trippin' on a Hole in a Paper Heart", "Lady Picture Show" and "Big Bang Baby" as a sampler. Then came 'No. 4' and immediately out blared "Down", a crushing grunge tune and vocal tour-de-force. "No Way Out" continued the onslaught, gorgeous "Atlanta" downshifted and STP graced us with a Beatlesque pop confection, "Sour Girl". The 5th album gripped me less than 'Tiny Music' did, but when Scott joined Slash in Velvet Revolver, he gave us "Slither", "Fall to Pieces" and "Messages", as well as his own solo career as a swan song. STP ejected Scott and hired Chester Bennington for a time, but on the newer releases they featured Jeff Gutt. Wasn't the same; Scott had a charisma like Michael Hutchence of INXS and was, sadly, just as tragically-fated.

Weiland story: I was working security when STP were first hitting the scene. This video wasn't even released yet. They were opening for Megadeth and I was right next to the stage. When STP came out, I was wondering who the weirdo with the pink hair and megaphone was. Then Megadeth came on and the place went crazy. I was keeping an eye on the crowd and I saw some dude with pink hair standing in the aisle watching the show. I go and tell him he needs to get back to his seat. She says he's just checking the band out and I tell him if he doesn't get back to his seat, I'm gonna throw him out. He said he didn't want no trouble and walked over to the door leading backstage and they let him in. Months later, when the Plush video is hitting hard, I realize I threatened to throw Scott Weiland out. I ended up getting tix to see STP, Firehose, and Butthole Surfers. I Wanted to go backstage and apologize to Scott but, of course, I couldn't get in.

Hi Elizabeth, This past Tuesday, Mark Lanegan passed away at 57. He was a poet, an author, and an incredibly prolific singer, with a beautifully unique baritone voice. He was best known for his grunge-era band, Screaming Trees, and his time with Queens Of The Stone Age. However, Mark also had a long career both as a solo artist, and through various collaborations with other artists too numerous to list here. In total (from 1984 into early 2022), he recorded over 500 songs, in multiple genres. He was well-respected and critically-acclaimed, but was never quite as commercially successful as some of his more famous peers. Mark had a difficult life and struggled with alcohol and a heroin addiction. His music is dark and frequently deals with themes of pain, sorrow, loss, and addiction. It is real and honest and beautiful. I’d love for you to listen to some of it (especially since you were recently talking about how much you enjoy low voices). I struggled to choose among so many, but ultimately decided to suggest this live performance of “One Way Street” from 2011. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-L1UxEF8p-T8.html

I think it may highlight just how emotional these singers are/were and why their music resonates with so many people, why it will continue to be one of the most defining music movements in history. Music transitioned from Heavy Metal Hair Rock that focused a lot on women, sex, drugs, and partying - into a newer Grunge style that focused on torment, mental illness, relationships that aren’t perfect, etc. These singers were not afraid to singe about things others would deem as taboo or in bad taste (Polly by Nirvana is an example) and they did it in ways others would think are lazy technique or sloppy singing - they let the music be their outlets. You can hear so much emotion in all of their voices.

I would much rather listen to Soundgarden Alice n Chains STP and Pearl Jam. Nirvana was the face of something that really hadn’t been done before. Not really the first but the first to be heavily pushed. It’s tame 30 years later but was innovative at the time. I look at them from that standpoint. If you were to listen to only Dimebag, Petrucci, Buckethead, and Zak Wyld then listen to Robert Johnson or even Chuck Berry you would say that Johnson and Berry are overrated.

Possibly they were promoted and pushed more on radiostations & mtv. None of the other bands apparently made it in the Hot 100 back during their when grunge was popular on rock radio/tv. As well the singer killed himself. So to the mainstream media he is looked as the head of the movement and they build the story around him.

The most underrated of the Seattle bands, and the most underrated of the Seattle singers. "Nearly" is probably a good place for her to start, fitting in with this theme, but I'd love to see her react to some of his solo stuff as well. Some of the bluesier/traditional stuff would be great.

Any song off STP's first and second albums are music magic. Their first album "Core" was a bit heavier, but their second album, Purple" is a personal classic to me. I can put "Purple" on and play it right through, it has such a flow to the track order. Elizabeth, check out "Big Empty" from STP's "Purple", which was also featured in the soundtrack for "The Crow" motion picture. So many artists from this Alt Rock/ Grunge scene are gone too soon. Brandon Lee... also gone way too soon.

De Leo mentioned that Big Empty was inspired by a distorted Led Zepplin song heard through the water spray noise while washing his car...it isn't too hard to guess which one.

@wilbo26 2 года назад

And for me Songs From the Vatican Gift Shop is even better. They got almost artistic and it is just incredible. Every album they have made is just solid cover to cover and they are very underrated in my opinion.

The Big Empty, an awesome song.

This is one of my favourites, an absolute classic. I love the gravel in Scott's voice.

I was lucky enough to catch STP in September of 92 at LOLLAPOLOOZA in Irvine Meadows! I traveled from my home in Santa Monica to Irvine and the only stop with a full show where my friends in Arizona only got to see 3 songs because Scott blew out his voice. They definitely belonged on the main stage but relegated to 2nd stage! RIP SCOTT AND CHESTER!

Glad you saved the best for last. STP are one of the greatest bands of all time and Weiland is the most beautiful man that ever lived. Lyrically and vocally unmatched. It still hurts that I live in a world without him in it.

I went through a lot of personal turmoil over the last year so I am catching up on your videos. I'm pleasantly surprised that you're analyzing the music of my youth

@mikecobalt7005 Год назад

:) Scott's/STP's songs often are very deep, you can listen to them over and over each time putting a few more pieces together and in the end, your impression of the song/direction may be very different. Listening to them on these videos is almost like experiencing them again back in their big time, very exciting and sometimes compelling and thoughtful.

After grunge, i feel like you should explore the uniquely talented Mike patton. His voice is truly something to behold, with high amounts of variety and experimentation from song to song. A good place to start would be this performance: "Faith No More - Just A Man (SWU Festival 2011)"

@jamestillman6571 2 года назад

Also, Chester Bennington fronted Stone Temple Pilots for a while after Scott was kicked out. THAT voice combined with the naturally beautiful riffs of the band was an interesting combination. I saw them live, and as much as people hated it at the time, he made me a fan that night. Man went into the show dry and by the end of the second song he didn't have a dry stitch of clothing on his body. He put his EVERYTHING into respecting the legacy of the man as well as the band. Something to look for if you're just combing videos one day

@jeremyturrigiano617 2 года назад

You should check out Atlanta by Stone Temple Pilots to hear a different side of Scott's voice Also, STP had an amazing MTV Unplugged, I know you like live videos. Also, also, you should check out a song called Right Turn. It's Layne Staley, Jerry Cantrell and Chris Cornell all together.

@SugarTasters 2 года назад

Sorry, I failed to see this post when I posted about ATLANTA above. I feel Scott does show his range and vulnerability in thIs beautiful gem of a song. One of my favorites. Its so heartfelt, heartbreaking. Plenty of emotions there I’m sure he was singing through. Glad I’m not the only one who would like to hear a breakdown of it. I love Charismatic Voices critiques and facial expression! I’ve learned a lot from her. Cheers.

@happyninja42 2 года назад

HARD agree there. That song, is hands down my favorite STP song of all time. And probably one of the most signature songs in my teenage soundtrack. So many emotional ties to that song, and a special someone from my youth. That song has so many feels to it for me. Plus it's just a really great song. Though, I do find it kind of funny that the phrasing of it, is sort of hilarious now, considering people actually DO sell their bath water. 🤣 I remember as a teenager thinking that line was a really beautiful way to convey the layers in which someone can be in love with someone. Now, as an adult I'm just like 🤮
