I feel like Mark Lanegan didn’t get enough credit or attention compared to Cobain or Vedder or Chris Cornell, but man, his voice was pure gold. One of the best singers ever imho.
No comparison. Kurt and Vedder caught all the spotlight, but Lanegan was out there doing the winding sheet. Makes Nirvana and Pearl Jam look like pop rock.
@@EMPANAO321He was almost shy - quiet and stoic - when I met him. Hearing his voice is to me what I imagine going to church must be like for a believer.
I just finished his book. Wow. The shit he went through just to get through those Trees tours made me cry. Especially listening to him tell it in his voice on the audio version 😢
I've never shared this video with anyone, I come back to it time and time again to remind me that there are things worth living for I saw Mark dozens of times over the years, met him a handful, I gave up trying to collect everything he recorded long ago my heart aches tonight
I managed to stick with the collecting. Including the song for a children's book where he was a bear singing about his sneakers. Well worth looking up. Ends in a terrible pun, shows how he was so much more than that dark presence on the stage. I'll miss him dearly.
@@gijswitdouck6929 I never knew where to draw the line, like do you get the Manic Street Preachers album with his cameo? I've got both versions of his Christmas album and was always on the look out for the bootlegs he sold of gigs I was at
@@bananafoxjones4724 I see your point. I've not quite finished collecting, I must admit. I do have every record where he sings on two songs or more, but not all the one song collaborations yet. And I'm not getting into bootlegs. It would never stop if I did.
We lost them all.... Layne Stanley, Chris Cornell, Scott Weiland.. How the music changed today... with so many "monsters" like these. Glad we have their music, so we can honor them for the rest of our lives too
I visited my friend in Seattle in 2000 and we went to see Mark Lanegan. It was an amazing set. The thing that stuck with me was when he took a hit of his cigarette and said, "It's not the smokin', it's the singin'". The crowd went crazy.
I have cried like some uncle of mine passed away. Never saw live gig, not even a close to it. But some of the songs mean a world to me. One of the most important persons in my life. Rest in peace, Mark. You left your burdens finally.
I was so blessed to see Screaming Trees live, and Mark Lanegan with an acoustic band opening for Johnny Cash (Mark stole the show if you ask me, he was that big a giant). Rest in peace, brother.
@@hangingon Definitely historic. It was sold out, of course, and I busked on the street before the show and managed to get a ticket gifted. The magic was flowing that night. It was obvious Mark did not want to disappoint. Have some very clear memories despite the many years...
Oh little burning star, now you can go to heaven and shine with other legends like you, eternally, your art, forever. 🌟🖤 RIP MARK LANEGAN (1964-2022) 🕯
Totally agree. Endlessly is the word. I'ld like to be able to speak english a bit better, just so I could discuss with fans like you a bit more. Sinds a few years I have seen Mark two times, once in Amsterdam and last november in my home town, Rotterdam. I just love him so much... It's hard for me to express my feelings, when I hear his music. Just hope you understand me, when I say he overpowers me, again and again...
Yeah, I was just listening to him w/Mad Season. At his much younger self, “The Black Book of Fear” being my fav esp.lyricism & velvety rich baritone vocals. “Slip Away” makes me cry every time. 🚬&booze will effect any1s vocals esp.over yrs of using. Set that aside, but as we all age, our vocals get lower. My dad’s vocals, he has checked, are 4keys lower on the bass end. Any1 who trains & takes care of their voice can reach higher🎶, even to the point where 1can B considered a tenor. But if u r Mr. Mark Lanegan, Y would u want 2do that (except taking care of his inst.as much as possible). I haven’t checked, but I wouldn’t B surprised if his lower register is now in bass territory.…w/that velvet sound gives me goosebumps😇❣️
When something we enjoy is lost, we value more freedom and we know that we are more than a grain of sand in this immense universe, great memories of this beautiful time and to think that wonderful voices are gradually silenced in the sunset of time. RIP Mark Lanegan.
This man just gets better with age. Quite possibly my favorite artist of all time. I picked up the Winding Sheet almost 30 years ago,best money I ever spent!
Lanegan has a rare gift. He has lived every note. Every seasick rollin' wave of his humble life legacy and it all feeds his soul with that bluesy rough diamond jewel of a voice, lyric, and melody combination. Untouchable. Except by him.
Of all the musicians that have passed over the years Mark ls the one I miss the most. He never lost his beautiful voice over the years, and I do regret that I never got to see him live.
I never tire of telling people that he has the best voice of all the Seattle bands, and that says a lot when you're in the company of Chris Cornell and Eddie Vedder.
@@keithpatrick156 Love Lanegan! One of my favorite voices ever! But none beats Cornell and Staley voices to me! Vedder? never told me much ... even less now. But with Cornell tragic departure ... Lanegan is today best vocalist! No doubt!
@@christar9527 Vedder never really told me much... I mean I like some of his records... but in fact I think he lost himself a little with the glamour and everything that fame brings. Lanegan has always remained true to the roots! You can hear this voice today, with the same feeling as 30 years ago. One of the last rock&roll warriors, such a badass motherfucker, I am grateful that he remains with us, when he could easily have died. His drug problem was no less than Layne Staley... he "simply" chose to clean and take another direction in life. Respect! I don't even put Vedder on top ... I mean there are vocalists even in Seattle a lot more badass. For example, I prefer Jerry Cantrell voice over Vedder... and he not even "technically" a vocalist!
I can't stop crying he was my everything 😢 I would play he's songs everything he had to offer me brought joy to my ears im now the loneliest man on earth....may he rest in peace 🙏 🪦 😌
I have tried endlessly to get people I know to absorb this talented genius not of this world . . . . They're not worthy of his coolness to begin with. He is the James Dean / Marlon Brando of music . . . .simply the best
I saw mark with his band last year, and this guitarist with them. Just incredible. The guitarist, Jeff Fielder is quite astounding too. I'm lucky to have seen it. Also met mark and his wife afterwards, not rubbing it in!
I had the honour of performing on one of Marks last tours with Jeff..I had no idea Mark was a huge fan of BFG in the late 80's and it was humbling that such a great artist was aware of us. We had planned to work together but Covid had other ideas...The night watchman is now at rest x
Mark had the Johnny Cash honesty and power. There’s a dream or nightmare in each phrase
Y'know, I've never thought of that before but now you say it, it's so obvious.
Lanegans top guitarist was a cash lookalike.prob loved cash and his music!so influencing marks sound.
I was just thinking about the Johnny Cash thing too
I feel like Mark Lanegan didn’t get enough credit or attention compared to Cobain or Vedder or Chris Cornell, but man, his voice was pure gold. One of the best singers ever imho.

It seems that mark was ok with that tho
Well said! and Agreed!

Totally underrated
This song hits so much harder today. Such a tragic loss. But such a powerful legacy. RIP, Mark. 😥
I just finished his book. Wow. The shit he went through just to get through those Trees tours made me cry. Especially listening to him tell it in his voice on the audio version 😢
Too 😕 But he will live trought us forever 💔❤

seeing and feeling that pain.
A voice so beautiful and haunting.
RIP Mark LANEGAN, such a husky and smooth voice that no one can match
Lonard Cohen could.
Mark's one of the rarest singers who sound better live than recorded.. he actually sings his heart out and his voice is raw gold. 💛
Same with Ray Wilson.
...so glad he survived all his 'crazy' 🌼
*interesting soul he be
I agree. Had goosebumps the entire Concert in Stockholm. Magical
@@linneaosterberg4805 Lucky you! 🤩 I wish I could see him live soon, since all of his concerts in Italy have been canceled 😑

Glad we have their music, so we can honor them for the rest of our lives too
I think this everyday my brother
😔
Stanley lol
I remember Jerry Cantrell talking about Mark and how much he loved his "whiskey soaked" vocals. RIP.
where did you see Jerry say this?
@@blue2434 can't remember but I think it was like an interview where he talked about his favorite singers.
@@blue2434😂
Mark, you will be missed. Rest your tired soul.

I heard the bad new... respect for this amazing artist, what a voice.
Brilliant.Mark's voice sounds more powerful and colourful the further he works off mic.The man is an intergalactic treasure I tell you.

Badass! A legend!
Awesome comment and spot on!

Me too was lucky to go see him in Scotland with my girl and it was amazing
Me, too 🖤
Between Cohen and Cash, a wonderful voice, thanks.
Si resta un po' più soli. Resta la musica. Grazie signor Lanegan
Lanegan is like a fine wine. He gets better with age.

There are absolutely no words that can adequately describe Mark Lanegan...
one of the greatest most underrated voices of our time.
This is my song for 2023
We came a long way: Kurt, Layne, Chris, Scott..and a lot other great artists. There music will be forever! RIP Mark et al🤘🏻
He's blessed to have been given the voice of a fallen angel
When something we enjoy is lost, we value more freedom and we know that we are more than a grain of sand in this immense universe, great memories of this beautiful time and to think that wonderful voices are gradually silenced in the sunset of time. RIP Mark Lanegan.
Well put my friend.
This man just gets better with age. Quite possibly my favorite artist of all time. I picked up the Winding Sheet almost 30 years ago,best money I ever spent!
scott pierce согласен с тобой. И это мой любимый артист тоже
Agreed. Beautiful genius.
He deserved bigger public when he was alive, i hope that one day people will notice how amazing singer he was
I was asleep
Lanegan is such an amazing singer. Nobody has a voice like his. Pulled right out of his soul.
Mark Lanegan is the truth. RIP Bourdain & Cornell.
R.I.P Mark lanegan...😥❤️✌🏼
Que des légendes partis trop tôt..
Rest in peace legend. I grew up with your voice in my ears and deep down in my soul
No one will sing with so much pain as Mark did, we lost a real artist when the darkness came to collect Mark from us.
Such a terrible loss.
Rest in peace now, beautiful soul.
Rest in Peace, master! Mark Lanegan is an eternal giant!
Mark's the reason i'm here, but damn that guitar solo recked me.
Rest in peace, you voice was special for me...
RIP to the most beautiful voice of a generation 😭😢
Lanegan has a rare gift.
He has lived every note. Every seasick rollin' wave of his humble life legacy and it all feeds his soul with that bluesy rough diamond jewel of a voice, lyric, and melody combination.
Untouchable. Except by him.
❤❤❤
Man.. such a heavy song. Just discovering this man music. Incredible stuff
Lanegan is like a very good wine. Better and better as he gets older, but only recognized as such by the highly experienced taster. Love him.
The world is a little less brighter tonight.
Still find it hard to believe Mark passed the way he did. Was such and amazing talent. RIP amazing human.
Mark Lanegan is in a league of his own! This is perfectly hauntingly beautiful...
One of my favorite songs by The Night Porter. Missing you, Mark! Thankful for the catalog of music you left us ❤️
Mark Lanegan is certainly one of my heroes, as are Staley and Cornell, they are sorely missed here.
Of all the musicians that have passed over the years Mark ls the one I miss the most. He never lost his beautiful voice over the years, and I do regret that I never got to see him live.
One of the best and most unique voices in current music

This man's voice becomes only better as he is getting older. Damn, wish i could sing so beautifully.
This guy is sooooooo underrated!
I agree.
WHO underrates him? Its soooo overrated to write "underrated" about famous musicians..
Great song!!! There...that's an easier comment...
@@Mortslake You know he ain't a mainstream musician, and lots of people don't know him. So I agree he's kinda underrated.
Underrated not in my mind, rating is personal
Marks voice got more wholesome in his later years. God bless the man who brought us soul in grudge and rock. ❤
Can’t ever get enough of this song. So haunting. No gimmick production needed- just Mark’s voice and Jeff’s beautiful guitar.
One of the most unexpectedly glorious voices I've ever heard
A sad day it is today.. another music hero has gone at least I was fortunate enough to find his music.
I'm fucking proud I've seen Mark Lanegan band live, great musicians, awesome sound.
You should! the real deal
Rest in peace Mark.
🙏❤️
Another Grunge legend gone... R.I.P. Mark. ❤
tears and lies for answer
fears and lies for answer
long on day man
stay with Layne for ever and sing for us all
Awesome voice, among the greatest characters in alternative rock. R.I.P., Mark Lanegan.
Thanks so so much Anthony Bourdain for Mark Lanegan and everything else .. RIP.
Oh that glourious sound... 🖤🖤🖤 Rest in peace 🖤🖤🖤
Just Heard the News.
Loved QOTSA but hearing his voice like this is perfect Rest in Peace Mark

Come back to this over and over. Song of a hurt life

Heartbroken.... RIP Mark :( Thank you for your beautiful music
One of the few men who could write and sing the best possible song for his own funeral.

i have only recently discovered this man and his sound, i am drunk on his voice
You need to listen to fernando viciconte. Youll thank me. :)
Leonard Cohen, Tom Waits started it all
I still cry
R.I.P from Bogotá, Colombia. LEGEND. 🖤
One of his best songs.
I've listened to this song a thousand times and more.
