    "'Fell On Black Days' was like this ongoing fear I've had for years. It took me a long time to write that song. We've tried to do three different versions with that title, and none of them have ever worked," he said. "It's a feeling that everyone gets. You're happy with your life, everything's going well, things are exciting - when all of a sudden you realize you're unhappy in the extreme, to the point of being really, really scared. There's no particular event you can pin the feeling down to, it's just that you realize one day that everything in your life is f--ked!" Chris Cornell quoted in magazine article about writing the song

      I believe Chris suffered from clinical depression, and ultimately his meds led to his death. Part of me wishes he would have continued to smoke and drink, but it wasn't meant to be.

    • @BuzzaB77
      @BuzzaB77 4 ปีที่แล้ว +48

      Man that's hard to read. I used to rationalize depression, as I've never suffered from it genuinely. Until I met an artist who was bipolar, and it became clear it was chemical. no rime no reason her dreams could be coming true and she would still suddenly just have days where she described she couldn't find the joy in anything. so cruel.

      @bobthebear1246 4 ปีที่แล้ว +22

      You can make that case. To me, it's both. Especially since Post-Grunge (as with Post-Punk) is a thing. Seattle was the epicenter of The Grunge Revolution; however, Grunge ain't confined to Seattle. Grunge has been brought to us by way of Chicago (Smashing Pumpkins), U.K. (Bush), and even Australia (early Silverchair) and South Africa (Seether, although they are technically Post-Grunge). Grunge rocks, man. 👍🏻

      @kriskelchtermans8594 4 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      If you're referring to what they are discussing at 10:25, I don't think it comes from asking what is so bad and more from "if only there was something we could have rond". Which is pretty common after a suicide.

      Have you heard the intro to the songs, ‘footsteps’ by Pearl Jam, ‘times of trouble’ by Temple of the Dog and ‘rotten apple’ by Alice in Chains? All a dedication, like the Alice song Would? to Andrew Wood.
      ‘Apple’ was the name of the only album released by Mother Love Bone.
      The band Green River, when they split, half that band became Mudhoney and half of that band became Mother Love Bone and when MLB split, half of that band became Pearl Jam.
      The song ‘right turn’ by Alice in Chains is sung by Layne, Mark from Mudhoney and Chris Cornell.
      Chris Cornell was Andrew Wood’s best friend.
      Pearl Jam have a song called ‘Lukin’ on their 4th album ‘No Code’ and it’s about Matt Lukin, the original bass player form Mudhoney - are there any other Seattle band links like these?

    "Room a Thousand Years Wide" by Soundgarden. As for grunge, it's a sound. It's very a dirty and unclean sound. Mostly started out of garage bands. The era was far too short for me, but I'm glad that I experienced it. I've seen a lot of the bands you're reacting to, as well as others. Chris Cornell and Layne Staley are the BEST vocalists of the era, hell, up to two of the top of all time.

    It's funny how songs age -- when I first heard this song when it came out, in the 90s, it was an absolute stunner. Stood out from all the other tracks. That bent guitar riff. The groove with those heavy fills. The sludgy, moody, ethereal vibe. The little change to the major key in the last half. And the vocal range.
    But I guess, if you're hearing this for the first time in 2019, you've already heard all the copycats and bands that were influenced by them, who polished the sound or were more influenced by other cuts on the record (FOURTH OF JULY is one of the tracks that influenced Deftones and a ton of other bands). And in the end, it doesn't have the same impact.
    Cos this song was one of those tracks that everyone was raving about back in the day.😂

      Three years ago, I was waiting for the walk sign on an intersection in Greenwood (Seattle suburb) and I looked to my right and, BOOM, Matt Cameron is standing right next to me. I have NEVER been so star struck in my life. I wanted to gush and talk to him, but he was with his kid and I didn't want to bother him. Don't regret my lack of action, but one of the perks to living in Seattle.
      Especially growing up here in the 90s. These guys were just everywhere... I saw Layne Staley in a Fred Meyers twice. I saw Chris Cornell and Ben Sheppard and Jerry Cantrell on the street in Ballard. I ate breakfast with Warrell Dane one morning. Ran into Jeff Loomis is a burger place in Shoreline.

    Chris struggled with anxiety and fear of being in public. He tempered his anxiety with drugs but he couldn't ever escape his own mind full of fears and worry.

      Been jamming this song for 3 days straight on repeat. I'm 23 and when I was a young kid STP was always playing somewhere. Feels good to bring it back I to my life again.

      Yes. I would love to hear reactions. STP's Tiny Music album is a great mid-90's snapshot of the confluence of grunge, pop and psychidelica. Unglued is a fun song too

      Tiny Music is so underrated. I’d actually say it’s head to head with Purple as their best album.

    Watching you react is like I am hearing these songs for the first time and it brings a lot of joy and memories to the point of crying. Grunge saved my life.
