This is one of my greatest grunge bands ever, the words of this song serenity, ' Cradle in my inner Child" speaks to me in various different was, yes his voice is so deep and powerfull. He screams so loudly, a message to last a lifetime,these guys are super,great metal musik. : - ))
This song still gives me chills just like the first time I heard it...So many different meanings in one song..I think we all need serenity at one time or another..a place where we can just be ourselves with no apology or pretenses...awesome song from an awesome band...Merry Part Sully
Nothing like mixing tribal with rock&roll, and I do believe it creates a great marriage and distinctive sound. Godsmack has been my favorite band for 15 years, keep up the awesome work, brilliant musicians...
Man,I can't get enough of this song! It's so calming and it sounds amazing live! I always listen to this song when i have trouble falling asleep..and it really helps!
The revitalization , this is like where the 60s left off , Fantastic Band , this is old school music with a modern touch , They would fit right in at the first Woodstock . I here so many band from that era in here , this is the best band out now . I also love Love and Opium , another Boston band .
This song and every other GodSmack song absoutley kick ass, Sully lyrics are so powerfull that the words take diffrent meaning at diffrent times in your life. Thanks for putting this song up with the live video. You must be as big of a fan as me. I have a copy of every album for each CD player I own. Thanks again,You rule.
He does have a deeper singing voice than most rockers these days though, who tend to go for the screeching, raspy higher pitches. He does go for a deeper, soulful tone especially in this song. Just my 2 cents ha.
I love Alice in Chains too, don't take this as a diss, but about the only thing that Layne Staley(RIP) and Sully Erna have in common is that they both have very distinctive voices and methods of singing. Layne seemed to always be so sad and he just had the music, he didn't want anyone to get too close to him. Sully has so much passion for the music as well as the band and the others in his life. Sully does good things for others too. Brightest Blessings Everyone! GODSMACK FOREVER!! SULLY ROCKS!!
Yanno the one thing I really love is that Sully sounds the same live as he does on the albums..maybe better cause you can see the passion he has for the music. GODSMACK RULES!!!
for people who do not know,the name of the band GODSMACK is take from the song GODSMACK from ALICE IN CHAINS and GODSMACK started out doing covers of Alice In Chains,so is normal they sound like ALICE IN CHAINS
i had to really listen to see if this was Godsmack when i heard it on the radio. its alot different than i stand alone and awake and all those songs but its one of my favorites now if not #1.
@bulletbreedband I hope I do too, they don't have a tour going on yet, they just have bleh dates here and there until August. Hopefully they're planning one.
@GuitarRocks23455 Actually, here is a quote from Sully... "Erna stated in a 1999 interview that 'I was making fun of somebody who had a cold sore on his lip and the next day I had one myself and somebody said, It looks like God just smacked you in the face for making fun. The name stuck and we went by Godsmack from then on. We were aware of the Alice in Chains song but didn't really think much about it. It's a cool song and the name had meaning for us".
@bulletbreedband I see why you responded, it looks like I said that I want to go on tour with them, but I what I said was that I wish they would go on tour now for their new album. but that's pretty badass dude.
some thoughts have no meaning... at least IMO, I'm going through a really bad time in my life and this song does make me feel better. It helps when somebody (being honest or not) describes feeling the same way as you are. Obviously they try to emphasize those feelings and yes, he tries to show pain somehow, but not in a pathetic way. If you want a real pathetic show of ill depression or whatever then listen to silverstein's song ''hear me out'', now that's a sad song.
@Godsmackisamazing heres one did u know that godsmack got there name from one of alice in chains song "god smack'? the lead singer is one of sullies inspirers
His voice is amazing
Godsmack makes beautiful music. I can listen all day to their songs. Go Godsmack!
It's not depressive at all, it actually has a lot of power and I would definetely listen to this to cheer myself up when sad
Serenity is what we need. Thanks Godsmack for an awesome song that speaks reality!

Been a while, but just to be clear, Godsmack never has been grunge.

@@seifer166 It's a very cool song. Yes, indeed!
This song is amazing it will never get old
This band is underrated and is beautiful... This guy's voice is amazing... One of the most powerful vocalists after chris cornell i feel.
i've had a tragic vision-loss of someone so special finding serenity is a must need peace of mind
l love how they're a heavy hard rock band, but can also put out a kickass slow song and in addition have great percussion to make it better.
I can definitely say the mood of this song has a stronger effect then the studio version. I love this :D
amazing performance!
Very beautiful & melodic song
great band! one of my favorites!
really beautiful song, he has an amazing voice
i fekkin love godsmack!! their music is awesome

I never knew how powerfull his voice was till I heard this song.
cool song
I assume that was for Mychell500, and I definitely agree, Sully Erna and Godsmack are badass
too true dude
@bulletbreedband I see why you responded, it looks like I said that I want to go on tour with them, but I what I said was that I wish they would go on tour now for their new album. but that's pretty badass dude.
this song is good
We need a Godsmack unplugged in New York Album out, whose with me
GoDsMacK is the Best!
sully looks layne in the mtv unplugged performance, and this song always reminds me of Planet Caravan by Sabbath for some reason
bad ass.
@Warhammer40kWarGamer Yes, but they've always said that the name wasn't the AIC song.
=3 his voice is sooo hot and his eyes are sooo nice.. ^^ I like him so much!

ha ha thats freaking hilarious dude!! LoL
@Godsmackisamazing heres one did u know that godsmack got there name from one of alice in chains song "god smack'? the lead singer is one of sullies inspirers
Godsmack isn't the most talented band in the world, but Sully is a good singer and they ALWAYS sound good live.
fukin awesum they rule
