You can't sing along with this song and not feel emotion. Sometimes when you're depressed you feel the closest and furthest from humanity. I'm sure I'm not the only person this song has dug out of the hole and even made a rainy day feel great. Rip Chris. We're still here in 2024.
I FEEL YOU I USED TO LISTEN TO AUDIOSLAVE WHEN MY BROTHER DIED THEY HELPED ME GET THROUGH IT I'VE BEEN TO PRISON BEHAVIORAL CENTERS BEEN HOMELESS AND MUSIC MAKES EVERYTHING GO AWAY
Knowing I didn't discover his music before he was gone is an ache I feel every time I hear him sing...but I'm so drawn to the beauty of it. RIP Chris Cornell. Just wish I had got to follow your music before you left.
I remember going through a terrible time in my life and Chris's lyrics were there for me.. to anyone listening to this song going through a rough time I'm here to tell you that the song is right. everything will turn out alright. just be yourself..
Said goodbye to my beautiful mum yesterday and this was the last song we used as part of the service, mum loved to sing along to this and she was always herself.....thank you xxx

I'm a 69 yr old guy who grew up with music from Beatles, Stones, Zeppelin, Deep Purple. . . . So am relatively a new listener to this particular group, but have been a huge fan of Chris Cornell from the first time I heard THAT VOICE. So much soul and heart pours out whether it's a ballad or pushing his voice to the limits. What a shame for this talent to be absent from our world. As another comment said- R.I.P. Mr Cornell- and , tho many songs came from your pain, thank you for leaving a mark that will always be there. Love this tune!!!
Whenever I feel low, Chris's word "Be Yourself is All That You Can Do" gives me strength. Because even if you are in either spectrum of life, good or bad, Be Yourself is all that You Can Do.
One of the greatest lyrical songs of our time. Unapologetically acknowledging to be you! Do not let the inner voice tear you down and accept that you are beautiful just as you are. Not to mention the amazing musical sound that Tom, Brad, and Tim developed. What a truly great band!
I spoke to some younger men around 21 years old. I told them some game Being yourself is all you can be. I live in downtown of a city and when I walk down, I get people shaking my hands, good interactions because I'm respected. I treat people with respect, even drug dealers, people that run gangs hug me. They respect someone that themselves. Integrity being honest is everything.

Music unites all our souls. No-one is EVER alone in music, whether you play it, compose it, write it, or listen...it is the Universal connection to all of us through Spirit. None of us are anything but human through music. We will Endure as long as we embrace it. There are no rockstars other than each an every one of us that embraces it in some way.
As he says in the lyrics, somewhere someone finds salvation, someone else just pain! So real visionary Chris Cornell! If he were among us, I'm sure of the beautiful post-pandemic compositions he would do.
He gave me strenght with this song: BE YOUR SELF. I have been fighting againts depression and other diseases of my broken mind. I put my heart in God's hands and smile everyday feeling the fire of being my self. THANK YOU CORNELL ♥ Your voice is pure power and this song is gonna save a lot of boys and girls who need it like I did. I found salvation in this song: REST IN PEACE CHRIS
Chris's vocals... and that intense gaze... whoa My dad died yesterday, and grunge music is being a good medicine for my grieving heart, especially anything Chris Cornell and Pearl Jam 🖤
Chris, I never cared about celebrities. Even when they died it was "oh that sucks." I found out you died at 7:05am. I had just started my shift. It ruined my whole day, and I thought about it regularly for over a week. I realized I listened to your music so much because it was so relatable, it felt like it was my own words. You made an impact on me that no other celebrity could even come close to. Rest in Peace, man. No one sings like you anymore.
I feel you, Ben. Chris had a way of voicing pain in a way people from all walks of life could appreciate. When I found out Chris passed I cried. There will never be another Chris Cornell, he was magnificently one of a kind and will never be replaced in my heart. Rest in peace, King. Your work will live on to remind us of your brilliance.
A Carta, Esta canção que fiz é sobre depressão e suicídio , para me ajudar, te inscreve no meu canal, fico grato, obrigado. th-cam.com/video/btBY2PDqmOI/w-d-xo.html
I feel exactly the same..I met many bands and famous ppl through work, some socially. GnR, Slash, Duff McKagen FNM, Patton, Jim Martin, Bottom, Kurt Cobain (though he was not speaking to anyone being unwell) No ppl he was not depressed or suicidal. Later C.Love.(what a fucking mess) REM..Peter Gabriel many more. I don't like to have regrets but the 3 or 4 opportunities I had to meet Chris. I couldn't go from the situation at that time in my life controlling me( i was young)but I will always regret not pushing on back, being stronger than the jealous older mean spirited bastard I wasted 3 precious yrs with, and going. I get a stab of pain in my heart that I missed my chances to say Thank You to Chris for his music!! And maybe have a talk about his songs and his views about life..This will forever and always be my biggest and only regret....Lord knows. R.I.P. Brother 💜
Every time you feel broken, helpless and going trough heavy shit in life, come here, listen to chris and put on repeat as many times as needed. Sing , cry and scream this lyrics out , and im sure you will feel better after …
I agree but even though I listen to it I'm feeling like everything is too much and I feel Chris felt the same. Even though he wrote the words, the belief wasn't there. EVERYDAY is a struggle, but it's ok not to be ok...
I think part of the mental health struggle can be trying not to be yourself. You have to be you. That's the only way to live in reality. That doesn't mean you can't become a better version of you, though. Face those demons and come out the other side on top. It can be scary as shit, and you have to do the work, but it's so worth it.
Gracias Cris y audioslave por haber creado musica tan maravillosa como esta. A la vez es muy triste saber que perdiste la batalla de la depresion y la ansiedad. Esta enfermedad mental es tan horrible y mortal que solo las personas que la padecemos podemos entender a otros que tambien tienen este transtorno, animo no se den por vencidos, yo en ciertas ocaciones tengo recaidas, tengo pensamientos suicidas, pero se que hay cosas muy importantes en esta historia que se llama vida.
¡Fuerza, Santi ! Todo pasa, cuándo té sientas que todo va mal 😔, abrí la ventana y la puerta, dejá que él sol té cargue de energía y pensa en todos los que estamos pidiendo al "Creador"de todo por vos. Fuerza y adelante 😘, saludos desde Sarandí, Avellaneda, Provincia de Buenos Aires 🇦🇷🕊️.
Gracias a ti hermano por escuchar muy buena musica, tienes que saber que todo es temporal, estamos en un constante cambio y estoy seguro que vas a tener tu tiempo de gloria y espero perdure hasta que completes tu vida en este mundo tan caotico pero a la vez tan natural y complejo, te deseo la mejor de las suertes ❤🤘
Whenever I’m feeling scared, insecure, and I feel like I’m gonna lose it; I always find myself coming back to this song for comfort. I feel like I’m gonna be alright after listening to it, and I start feeling lighter and breathing easier and my mind calms down. I love the sound, Chris Cornell is highly talented along with the rest of the band [R.I.P. Chris, and you are still loved and missed😢], and I love the meaning. I appreciate that this beautiful piece of art was created. Thank you.❤️
Yes when i got back from OIF i was sent to afghnistan my world changed i had to reset some shit toxic gf acted like i was in the bahamas or something- just doin my shit on my own now - being myself to chris
"Don't lose any sleep tonight. I'm sure everything will end up alright. You may win or lose." And just like this, he explained what life is all about. You are deeply missed Chris. 🥺
Having a cry at 5 am just realizing that it is alright to be myself and to go live MY life!! I am 27 years old and no one has music like this coming out anymore... All I can say is repeat repeat repeat
@@nicolapole9491 It's more than encouraged, it's inevitable. Indeed, to be ourselves is all that we can do. That our "Self" is defined in relation to the "Self" of others, with time, complexity, and causality creating the unique human that we all are, built from the little pieces of others we meet along the way...at least that's what I've gathered so far in my 35 years...
Chris, you'll be missed. Beautiful voice with a beautiful heart. I remember hearing Be yourself at 6th grade and instantly making it the anthem for life. Thanks for everything Chris, typing with a heavy heart, Rest in Peace.
I've been miserable for such a long time. I miss waking up and being excited to experience life. It's not an isolated situation, i know you are all out there. Depression can suck you very deep, and if you don't reach out then you are doing yourself an injustice. Don't let the madman in your mind dictate your life. I love you all!
dont take this wrong, but depression is an illusion,....the world has too much to show you..to offer you...just take a ride along the coast....thru a mountain road...experiance an outdoor concert...strike up a conversation with a stranger....volunteer with special needs kids....dont buy into this "depression"...it has hurt alot of good folks....and no, medication is not neccessary ....unless its 4:20....(pardon my spelling)
Have you ever heard of "Warrick Dunn" Warrick suffered from depression during his football career. Warrick Dunn did some incredible things, he built over 32 homes for single mothers and did lots of community work. That's a fine human being, yet he still faced the daily struggle with depression. I agree with a lot of your statement, I think natural highs can be 1 of the best medicines to overcome "bland/rough spots" in 1s life. Good luck to you
Thank you Chris for your music!!! I listen to your songs every single day, you have helped me through some dark days, best therapy this side of heaven!!! Pray you’re resting in peace…. William in Mississippi 2024
I know it’s a shame he’s a voice of many generations like my kids love his music as I did and still do all the time he will forever be loved and missed
Someone falls to pieces Sleeping all alone Someone kills the pain Spinning in the silence To finally drift away Someone gets excited In a chapel yard Catches a bouquet Another lays a dozen White roses on a grave... The first song I ever listened from Audioslave way back in 2006. This is among one of the bands that really inspired me in the music scene I currently am. R. I. P. brother. 💔
This song and many other of Chris' songs have helped me so much with my mental health throughout the years. Depression and substance abuse is a hard suffering to be dealt with and overcome. I remember listening to this song for the first time when I started getting into bands like Audioslave and Soundgarden (I was born in 2006 so it wasn't until Chris' tragic passing when I was 12 or 13 when I started to get into rock and just music in general and develop an understanding and appreciation for great musicians like Chris.) Anyways, when I first heard this song, once I heard the first verse I just felt an immediate deep connection to what he was saying. I felt like I finally discovered a musician that saw with the same eyes as me. The way Chris was able to portray his emotions and the way he views the world and create imagery within his music is something that can never be done the same again. I will forever be grateful for the inspiration and comfort that I derived from his music.
I couldn't agree more. His music has honestly changed my life as stupid as that may sound. Such deep meanings and lessons in his music I can't help but truly feel his pain, like wow he had a way of expressing his depression and pain, like no other artist I've come across.
For a 16 year-old, you are wise and smart way beyond your years Tommy. I just want you to know that as you see the inspiration in Chris, you too have the same un-replicatable qualities as he did and that same heart and spirit lives-on inside you buddy. Keep strong Tommy and always remember that there may be a hundered million of them, but only one of you. We all believe in you matey! ❤️
@@penguinisalive6027 try "black hole sun" or "pretty noose" or maybe "rhinosaur". all are well composed songs that showcase Chris' vocals well. don't watch the video's though. play the songs, turn it up loud and listen. CC❤ non the less, full respect to you that you appreciate his talent. most people these days don't really care
@penguinisalive6027 I was the other way around. Knew him for Soundgarden in my high school years then stumbled into Audioslave in my 30s. Miss you Chris. RIP.
*Lyrics* Someone falls to pieces Sleeping all alone Someone kills the pain Spinning in the silence To finally drift away Someone gets excited In a chapel yard Catches a bouquet Another lays a dozen White roses on a grave To be yourself is all that you can do To be yourself is all that you can do Someone finds salvation in everyone And another only pain Someone tries to hide himself Down inside himself he prays Someone swears his true love Until the end of time Another runs away Separate or united? Healthy or insane? To be yourself is all that you can do *x4* *dope guitar solo* And even when you've paid enough, been pulled apart or been held up With every single memory of the good or bad faces of luck don't lose any sleep tonight I'm sure everything will end up alright You may win or lose But to be yourself is all that you can do To be yourself is all that you can do
Amazing song. Roughest part of my life the last 2 years. This song helps me make it through some days. Thank you Chris!! Be yourself is all you can do!!
Same bro, especially early 2022. Listening to this song makes me cry sometimes because I used to listen to this when I was in the worst time in my life. Looking back at it I see how far I’ve come, just makes me feel at peace with myself, and this song reminds me of it.
Audioslave got me through the difficult times in my life. Great lyrics, great voice and although we never met, I'm certain a great person. Thank you Chris. I hope you are also rockin' in the afterlife. You will always be remembered.
SPAPZ as u got away with difficult times .... i had my best time through his songs... it was a competitive emotion but now im left alone with no one to compete...
As a poet by his poems or a writer by his books, Chris will always be alive by his songs, as long as our emotions, be it hardship or prosperity, shall be intertwined with them. Wish you many better times while reminiscing the ones you already had thanks to Chris.
This song perfectly describes my life. This song guided me through life. And I’m sure it did the same for you. Please live on, don’t give up and just be yourself.
Probably the most iconic and versatile rock voice there's been. And to think we were lucky enough to be on this flying rock at the same time as Chris. RIP CC.
I'm so missing this beautiful voice. His singing always makes me feel something. So powerful. One of those great story telling voices. RIP Chris, you were loved and you are missed.
But imagine if Slash came in shredding for that solo though. Just the thought of it sends shivers down my spine. All respect to this guitarist though, he did a great job.
I'd been in a dark place recently with both work and private life stresses and then rediscovered this track after years of not hearing it after looking for a new bassline to learn, the lyrics are as true now as the day they were written. if theres anyone else who reads this who has been struggling with life recently, you don't owe anyone else anything, look after yourself and just be yourself, peace... RIP Chris lad.
This kind of music helped me in my adolescence to go forward no matter the difficulties.. I am 24 years old now and I will be grateful for my whole life. I say all this with tears in my eyes, rest in peace a great artist, rest in peace Chriss.
TO BE YOURSELF IS ALL THAT YOU CAN DO TO BE YOURSELF IS ALL THAT YOU CAN DO TO BE YOURSELF IS ALL THAT YOU CAN DO TO BE YOURSELF IS ALL THAT YOU CAN DO Thank you for the words Chris. Rest easy...
In this moment of my life, when I'm not even sure who the hell I am, this songs hits really hard, but help a lot as well. Thanks for these songs Chris. You won't be forgotten
@@breesechick I thought it too, but when you star talking abou these things with other people, sometimes you realize it's not just you. I hope you get through it
Someone falls to pieces sleeping all alone, someone kills the pain. Spinning in the silence she finally drifts away. Someone gets excited, in a chapel yard catches a bouquet. Another lays a dozen white roses on a grave. Yeah and to be yourself is all that you can do Hey, to be yourself is all that you can do Someone finds salvation in everyone, another only pain. Someone tries to hide himself, down inside himself he prays. Someone swears his true love until the end of time, another runs away. Separate or united, healthy or insane, And to be yourself is all that you can do, yeah (All that you can do) To be yourself is all that you can do (All that you can do) To be yourself is all that you can do (All that you can do) Hey, be yourself is all that you can do Even when you've paid enough, Been put upon or been held up Every single memory of The good or bad, faces of luck Don't lose any sleep tonight I'm sure everything will end up alright You may win or lose But to be yourself is all that you can do, yeah To be yourself is all that you can do Oh, to be yourself is all that you can do (All that you can do) Hey, to be yourself is all that you can do (All that you can do) To be yourself is all that you can Be yourself is all that you can Be yourself is all that you can do
Chris Cornell passed before I got into Soundgarden, Audioslave, Temple Of The Dog, and his solo career. Now looking back I realize how much of an amazing soul he was
Chris Cornell was not only a great singer, musician, composer and lyricist he was also the frontman of 2 of the greatest bands ever Soundgarden and Audioslave (and also Temple of the dogs and great solo carreer). Our attempt to pay a tribute to my personal favourite singer with our version of "Be Yourself" here : th-cam.com/video/QaJaYXfIdrY/w-d-xo.html
I know this man had drug problems but he was one of the most original singers I've ever heard. Growing up in the 90s. It's so original but no one can ever repeat this man's voice!
it was far beyond "drugs" or "drink" people love to think they "know" he was struggling with COPING wake the FUCK UP and stop blaming or accusing scuicide's with guilt and shame. Geez. Take a look within yourself. Stop projecting.
"Be Yourself" Someone falls to pieces Sleeping all alone Someone kills the pain Spinning in the silence To finally drift away Someone gets excited In a chapel yard Catches a bouquet Another lays a dozen White roses on a grave To be yourself is all that you can do To be yourself is all that you can do Someone finds salvation in everyone And another only pain Someone tries to hide himself Down inside himself he prays Someone swears his true love Until the end of time Another runs away Separate or united? Healthy or insane? To be yourself is all that you can do To be yourself is all that you can do To be yourself is all that you can do To be yourself is all that you can do And even when you've paid enough, been pulled apart or been held up With every single memory of the good or bad faces of luck don't lose any sleep tonight I'm sure everything will end up alright You may win or lose But to be yourself is all that you can do To be yourself is all that you can do
I do but to really believe .... I would love for him to pop up in you two second breath Heald due to the belief in paranormal when paranormal says hello
beechfuzz very well said... this song got me through a very dark and scary time in my life... sometimes I really do think that everyone is put here for a reason. And when they have served their purpose they have to move on. I don't know?✨✨✨

Well, my mood officially can't get any worse than that ... All day I am listening to Audioslave songs and now I read the news .. I really want to say "Rest in Peace", but after all I know .. *Legends Never Die !*
This song is helping me through some tough dark sh1t right now. It reminds me no matter how fked up things are, you can keep your dignity by being yourself.

Man wish we still had this guy making music today. I was in college when all this music came out. Can’t listen to this without a few tears coming out of the corner of my eye. Thanks for the memories Chris.
"Even when you've paid enough Been pulled apart Or been held up Every single memory of The good or bad, faces of love Don't lose any sleep tonight I'm sure everything will end up alright You may win or lose" This part is perfection!
Strangely, I did not discover the magic that was Chris Cornell until after his death. I will forever regret I never got to see this beautiful man perform in person. I love him and his music.
Same, I missed out, it’s really sad that this guy’s life was messed up, and prematurely ended because of drugs, I mean, he was handsome, he could play several instruments, he had a four octave range, he was married, he had kids, millions of people admired him, and then we went and killed himself. Really tragic
Porque, porque mierda nos dejan así... miles de vidas, miles de historias lloran por tú partida... Tú voz incomparable voz, talento, genio! Nos estamos llenando de música basura y nuestros mejores se nos van! Si, soy egoista, me da rabia y pena aun no puedo asumir esta triste noticia... Gracias, infinitas gracias por ser parte de una y miles vidas...
"Don't lose any sleep tonight, im sure everything will end up alright" gets me EVERY TIME 😭 I hope so Chris...❤

Thank you for helping me through a dark time in my life. Your lyrics meant the world to me. Rest easy bud.
Ok
Was listening to Audioslaves during the time I was getting off drugs and alcohol
His music played a huge role in my sobriety
R.I.P. Chris. One of the greatest voices in the history of Rock & Roll.
he's in rock paradise, one more of our idol's gone
in the music in general
He definitely blessed us with a distinctive voice
The verdad best

One of the greatest lyrical songs of our time. Unapologetically acknowledging to be you! Do not let the inner voice tear you down and accept that you are beautiful just as you are. Not to mention the amazing musical sound that Tom, Brad, and Tim developed. What a truly great band!
I spoke to some younger men around 21 years old. I told them some game Being yourself is all you can be. I live in downtown of a city and when I walk down, I get people shaking my hands, good interactions because I'm respected. I treat people with respect, even drug dealers, people that run gangs hug me. They respect someone that themselves. Integrity being honest is everything.
Definitely!
Can’t say it better than that!❤️

In a chapel yard
Catches a bouquet
Another lays a dozen
White roses on a grave
And be yourself is all that you can do
To be yourself is all that you can do
Someone finds salvation in everyone
Another only pain
Someone tries to hide themself
Down inside himself he prays
Someone swears their true love
Until the end of time
Another runs away
separate or united?
Healthy or insane?
And be yourself is all that you can do (all that you can do)
To be yourself is all that you can do (all that you can do)
To be yourself is all that you can do (all that you can do)
Be yourself is all that you can do
Even when you've paid enough
Been pulled apart
Or been held up
Every single memory of
The good or bad, faces of love
Don't lose any sleep tonight
I'm sure everything will end up alright
You may win or lose
But to be yourself is all that you can do
To be yourself is all that you can do
To be yourself is all that you can do (all that you can do)
To be yourself is all that you can do (all that you can do)
To be yourself is all that you can
Be yourself is all that you can
Be yourself is all that you can do
Slow Jazz thx
Thanks!
Slow Jazz Thanks :D
Thanks a lot. Because of my poor english I supposed he said "Be yourself as hard as you can do".
Which also makes some sense though :)

"Cornell had the songwriting skills of the Beatles, the weight of Black Sabbah, and a powerful voice like Mercury." - DAVE GROHL
He was everything!!

And handsome...(He was my crush).😍😉🥴
Best description I've ever head. And I've heard a lot.
Music unites all our souls. No-one is EVER alone in music, whether you play it, compose it, write it, or listen...it is the Universal connection to all of us through Spirit. None of us are anything but human through music. We will Endure as long as we embrace it. There are no rockstars other than each an every one of us that embraces it in some way.
Right!!!!!!
As he says in the lyrics, somewhere someone finds salvation, someone else just pain! So real visionary Chris Cornell! If he were among us, I'm sure of the beautiful post-pandemic compositions he would do.
💜2024 And this gem continues to shine 💖💎🔥
Dam we listen to alot of the same music I have seen ur comments before 😅
@@Awesomebyassociation i grew up with this. i passed forward to my sons
Why chicken??
Yes .🤟
" To be yourself is all that chicken do."
He gave me strenght with this song: BE YOUR SELF. I have been fighting againts depression and other diseases of my broken mind. I put my heart in God's hands and smile everyday feeling the fire of being my self. THANK YOU CORNELL ♥ Your voice is pure power and this song is gonna save a lot of boys and girls who need it like I did.
I found salvation in this song: REST IN PEACE CHRIS
Hada Durmiente I wish you lots of luck in your life :)

In my opinion one of the greatest bands and artist of my time, a complete masterpiece! RIP Chris
RIP Chris. You reached millions of people's hearts by being yourself. This is a sad day for all of us.
emgu1618 perfect comment. describes exactly how special Chris Cornell was to millions around the world.
emgu1618 A very beautiful description and comment. Couldn't agree more.
emgu1618 ....be yourself ....before,during and after Chris!
still sad...
emgu1618 :.(
Such a beautiful man and voice. Your legacy will never be forgotten. Love you!
Chris's vocals... and that intense gaze... whoa
My dad died yesterday, and grunge music is being a good medicine for my grieving heart, especially anything Chris Cornell and Pearl Jam 🖤
Sorry for your loss , hopefully He’s listening to Chris Cornell live up there
Sorry for your loss :( I'm sure he is looking down on you proudly, just remember he will always be with and love you:)
Sorry for your loss
May light eternal shine on your father. And courage be for you.
My condolences.
Chris, I never cared about celebrities. Even when they died it was "oh that sucks." I found out you died at 7:05am. I had just started my shift. It ruined my whole day, and I thought about it regularly for over a week. I realized I listened to your music so much because it was so relatable, it felt like it was my own words. You made an impact on me that no other celebrity could even come close to. Rest in Peace, man. No one sings like you anymore.
I feel you, Ben. Chris had a way of voicing pain in a way people from all walks of life could appreciate. When I found out Chris passed I cried. There will never be another Chris Cornell, he was magnificently one of a kind and will never be replaced in my heart. Rest in peace, King. Your work will live on to remind us of your brilliance.

You said it. When you heard him you could feel the music.
I feel exactly the same..I met many bands and famous ppl through work, some socially. GnR, Slash, Duff McKagen FNM, Patton, Jim Martin, Bottom, Kurt Cobain (though he was not speaking to anyone being unwell) No ppl he was not depressed or suicidal. Later C.Love.(what a fucking mess) REM..Peter Gabriel many more. I don't like to have regrets but the 3 or 4 opportunities I had to meet Chris. I couldn't go from the situation at that time in my life controlling me( i was young)but I will always regret not pushing on back, being stronger than the jealous older mean spirited bastard I wasted 3 precious yrs with, and going. I get a stab of pain in my heart that I missed my chances to say Thank You to Chris for his music!! And maybe have a talk about his songs and his views about life..This will forever and always be my biggest and only regret....Lord knows. R.I.P. Brother 💜
The same happened to me when Layne died.
May 18, 2024 and only 7 years after your departure, here we will continue listening to the great songs you left us.
This song has my crying right now. Rest in peace, Chris, I love you
Take It Easy - I'm Easily Offended im bawling my eyes out. why couldnt I truly listen to him earlier!
I'm still listening to this and I swear I'm still crying!! Very moving song
Every time you feel broken, helpless and going trough heavy shit in life, come here, listen to chris and put on repeat as many times as needed. Sing , cry and scream this lyrics out , and im sure you will feel better after …
Thanks
you're goddamn right. that's how awesome rock music is and what it can do for people.
I agree but even though I listen to it I'm feeling like everything is too much and I feel Chris felt the same. Even though he wrote the words, the belief wasn't there. EVERYDAY is a struggle, but it's ok not to be ok...
I think part of the mental health struggle can be trying not to be yourself. You have to be you. That's the only way to live in reality. That doesn't mean you can't become a better version of you, though. Face those demons and come out the other side on top. It can be scary as shit, and you have to do the work, but it's so worth it.
Gracias Cris y audioslave por haber creado musica tan maravillosa como esta. A la vez es muy triste saber que perdiste la batalla de la depresion y la ansiedad. Esta enfermedad mental es tan horrible y mortal que solo las personas que la padecemos podemos entender a otros que tambien tienen este transtorno, animo no se den por vencidos, yo en ciertas ocaciones tengo recaidas, tengo pensamientos suicidas, pero se que hay cosas muy importantes en esta historia que se llama vida.
¡Fuerza, Santi ! Todo pasa, cuándo té sientas que todo va mal 😔, abrí la ventana y la puerta, dejá que él sol té cargue de energía y pensa en todos los que estamos pidiendo al "Creador"de todo por vos.
Fuerza y adelante 😘, saludos desde Sarandí, Avellaneda, Provincia de Buenos Aires 🇦🇷🕊️.

If i could like this song 1000 times I would! RIP Chris, we will never forget you!
Whenever I’m feeling scared, insecure, and I feel like I’m gonna lose it; I always find myself coming back to this song for comfort. I feel like I’m gonna be alright after listening to it, and I start feeling lighter and breathing easier and my mind calms down. I love the sound, Chris Cornell is highly talented along with the rest of the band [R.I.P. Chris, and you are still loved and missed😢], and I love the meaning. I appreciate that this beautiful piece of art was created. Thank you.❤️
no lie !!!
His lyrics explore the darkness, but also give hope. That's important in hard rock.

Hollygrove It’s more than alright to be yourself - it’s encouraged! Be you. There’s only one of you. Live as you please!
растрогало с твоего сообщения, полностью с тобой согласен
@@nicolapole9491 It's more than encouraged, it's inevitable. Indeed, to be ourselves is all that we can do. That our "Self" is defined in relation to the "Self" of others, with time, complexity, and causality creating the unique human that we all are, built from the little pieces of others we meet along the way...at least that's what I've gathered so far in my 35 years...
See my comment.
man were on the same age and I agree to that theres no more music like this is coming the genre have died
Chris, tu musica me sigue acompañando en los momentos más bajos de mi vida, eres mi mayor inspiración ❤. Ya nadie canta como tu
Chris, you'll be missed. Beautiful voice with a beautiful heart. I remember hearing Be yourself at 6th grade and instantly making it the anthem for life. Thanks for everything Chris, typing with a heavy heart, Rest in Peace.
I've been miserable for such a long time. I miss waking up and being excited to experience life. It's not an isolated situation, i know you are all out there. Depression can suck you very deep, and if you don't reach out then you are doing yourself an injustice. Don't let the madman in your mind dictate your life. I love you all!
"Within lies a sanctuary, one so sacred only Truth may dwell. It is there you will find the light you seek." - Dale R. Mahaffey
I hope it's getting better, good luck to you and a lot of courage ♡
dont take this wrong, but depression is an illusion,....the world has too much to show you..to offer you...just take a ride along the coast....thru a mountain road...experiance an outdoor concert...strike up a conversation with a stranger....volunteer with special needs kids....dont buy into this "depression"...it has hurt alot of good folks....and no, medication is not neccessary ....unless its 4:20....(pardon my spelling)
Jonathan de Jeu 🙏
Have you ever heard of "Warrick Dunn" Warrick suffered from depression during his football career. Warrick Dunn did some incredible things, he built over 32 homes for single mothers and did lots of community work. That's a fine human being, yet he still faced the daily struggle with depression. I agree with a lot of your statement, I think natural highs can be 1 of the best medicines to overcome "bland/rough spots" in 1s life. Good luck to you
Thank you Chris for your music!!! I listen to your songs every single day, you have helped me through some dark days, best therapy this side of heaven!!! Pray you’re resting in peace…. William in Mississippi 2024

May the darkness within you, find peace in the light.

I know it’s a shame he’s a voice of many generations like my kids love his music as I did and still do all the time he will forever be loved and missed

18 de mayo de 2024 y solo 7 años después de tu partida, aquí seguiremos escuchando las grandes canciones que nos dejaste.
Un gigante fue, es y sera
This song and many other of Chris' songs have helped me so much with my mental health throughout the years. Depression and substance abuse is a hard suffering to be dealt with and overcome. I remember listening to this song for the first time when I started getting into bands like Audioslave and Soundgarden (I was born in 2006 so it wasn't until Chris' tragic passing when I was 12 or 13 when I started to get into rock and just music in general and develop an understanding and appreciation for great musicians like Chris.) Anyways, when I first heard this song, once I heard the first verse I just felt an immediate deep connection to what he was saying. I felt like I finally discovered a musician that saw with the same eyes as me. The way Chris was able to portray his emotions and the way he views the world and create imagery within his music is something that can never be done the same again. I will forever be grateful for the inspiration and comfort that I derived from his music.
beautifully said Tommy
I couldn't agree more. His music has honestly changed my life as stupid as that may sound. Such deep meanings and lessons in his music I can't help but truly feel his pain, like wow he had a way of expressing his depression and pain, like no other artist I've come across.
For a 16 year-old, you are wise and smart way beyond your years Tommy.
I just want you to know that as you see the inspiration in Chris, you too have the same un-replicatable qualities as he did and that same heart and spirit lives-on inside you buddy.
Keep strong Tommy and always remember that there may be a hundered million of them, but only one of you.
We all believe in you matey! ❤️

Lies again? Chubby Children
words cannot explain how much i love this man’s voice. It’s insane
I recently discovered his voice. For some reason I couldn't get into Soundgarden, but got into Audioslave. Gosh, he's good.
@@penguinisalive6027 try "black hole sun" or "pretty noose" or maybe "rhinosaur". all are well composed songs that showcase Chris' vocals well. don't watch the video's though. play the songs, turn it up loud and listen. CC❤ non the less, full respect to you that you appreciate his talent. most people these days don't really care
@penguinisalive6027 I was the other way around. Knew him for Soundgarden in my high school years then stumbled into Audioslave in my 30s. Miss you Chris. RIP.
Haunting and beautiful at the same time
"No one sings like you anymore."
It's easy to see why so many people take this song to heart and it's become a part of them. Masterpieces tend to do that. RIP CC
Word bro .. so many memories .. in a a time if uncertainty of who we we are ... This song reminds me who the F I am !..
Just be the Masterpiece He Created You to be

Amazing song. Roughest part of my life the last 2 years. This song helps me make it through some days. Thank you Chris!! Be yourself is all you can do!!
Same bro, especially early 2022. Listening to this song makes me cry sometimes because I used to listen to this when I was in the worst time in my life. Looking back at it I see how far I’ve come, just makes me feel at peace with myself, and this song reminds me of it.
Same. The past few years have been very unkind to me but I intend to make my future a bright place.
Respect lies on the other side of fear.
You must overcome this.
Or else you’ll live your life as a coward for your entire human existence.
Mine too man, stay strong an reach out if you want :). Much love
Floooooooooooooooa
Audioslave got me through the difficult times in my life. Great lyrics, great voice and although we never met, I'm certain a great person. Thank you Chris. I hope you are also rockin' in the afterlife. You will always be remembered.
can't forget sound garden
SPAPZ as u got away with difficult times .... i had my best time through his songs... it was a competitive emotion but now im left alone with no one to compete...
As a poet by his poems or a writer by his books, Chris will always be alive by his songs, as long as our emotions, be it hardship or prosperity, shall be intertwined with them. Wish you many better times while reminiscing the ones you already had thanks to Chris.
Some sounds you just can't forget.
SPAPZ he'll always be alive in his songs now that he handed me down all that he had wronged
MID 2024 year, "be your self is all that you can do" I believe this to be a very powerful message and personal advise from our friend Chris.
This song perfectly describes my life. This song guided me through life. And I’m sure it did the same for you. Please live on, don’t give up and just be yourself.
Probably the most iconic and versatile rock voice there's been. And to think we were lucky enough to be on this flying rock at the same time as Chris. RIP CC.

I'd been in a dark place recently with both work and private life stresses and then rediscovered this track after years of not hearing it after looking for a new bassline to learn, the lyrics are as true now as the day they were written. if theres anyone else who reads this who has been struggling with life recently, you don't owe anyone else anything, look after yourself and just be yourself, peace... RIP Chris lad.
Best wishes Chris! 👊🏼🔥

Sadly it’s 2024 and all we have is shit music and bands. Utter crap. Foo fighters are the only decent band still remaining.
props to the comments. be yourself and like a stone are perfect songs IMHO
I listen to this song on repeat.
Chris Cornell passed before I got into Soundgarden, Audioslave, Temple Of The Dog, and his solo career. Now looking back I realize how much of an amazing soul he was
Same. I didn't even know who he was until last year.
then it lives on...
Same here. I had seen him in interviews but wasn't intrigued. Talented man.
Chris Cornell was not only a great singer, musician, composer and lyricist he was also the frontman of 2 of the greatest bands ever Soundgarden and Audioslave (and also Temple of the dogs and great solo carreer). Our attempt to pay a tribute to my personal favourite singer with our version of "Be Yourself" here : th-cam.com/video/QaJaYXfIdrY/w-d-xo.html

I know this man had drug problems but he was one of the most original singers I've ever heard. Growing up in the 90s. It's so original but no one can ever repeat this man's voice!
I don’t condone drug usage but usually the better artists are the ones that struggled with it
Mental Illness is what killed him
@@disgruntledvet13 well yeah but drugs definitely pushed it that far.
The first soundgarden song I ever heard was Black Rain. The power of his voice absolutely blew me away
it was far beyond "drugs" or "drink" people love to think they "know" he was struggling with COPING wake the FUCK UP and stop blaming or accusing scuicide's with guilt and shame. Geez. Take a look within yourself. Stop projecting.

Separate or united?
Healthy or insane?
To be yourself is all that you can do
To be yourself is all that you can do
To be yourself is all that you can do
To be yourself is all that you can do
And even when you've paid enough, been pulled apart or been held up
With every single memory of the good or bad faces of luck
don't lose any sleep tonight
I'm sure everything will end up alright
You may win or lose
But to be yourself is all that you can do
To be yourself is all that you can do
Well, my mood officially can't get any worse than that ... All day I am listening to Audioslave songs and now I read the news ..
I really want to say "Rest in Peace", but after all I know .. *Legends Never Die !*
Марио Петров harambe died
Harambe was a little bitch
RIP chris! your music and voice doesn't have borders! Raise my prayer from Colombia.
así es, su voz no tiene fronteras.. Un muy doloroso adiós.
A legend has gone. RIP
I don't know if my situation is depression (mental problem) but these songs allow me not to sink into my negative thoughts.
it pains me so hard ...knowing that this voice is no longer with us...but at the same same time it feels like he´s always here...and it comforts me..
Pee Yourself Is That All You Could Do Parody HAhahahaha.
Chris, by being yourself, you put something wonderful in the world that was not there before
Love this song, miss Cris. Through my darkest nights your song and lyrics, save me one and a millions times. Wherever you are, I thank you for that.
never felt so sad for the passing of a person I never met. it's been 5 days and it still hurts.
And today as well.
Same here. Soundgarden was one of the first bands that I ever became (still am) a fan of

Fly High and rest easy. You made your mark here on earth. Thank you for changing the lives of many, including mine. 💔
Chris is one of the best singers to ever walk the earth rest in peace
This song is helping me through some tough dark sh1t right now. It reminds me no matter how fked up things are, you can keep your dignity by being yourself.
Keep fighting the good fight , you'll win in the end ❤

Verse 1]
Someone falls to pieces sleeping all alone
Someone kills the pain
Spinning in the silence
She finally drifts away
Someone gets excited in a chapel yard
Catches a bouquet
Another lays a dozen
White roses on a grave
[Chorus 1]
Yeah and to be yourself is all that you can do
Hey, to be yourself is all that you can do
[Verse 2]
Someone finds salvation in everyone, another only pain
Someone tries to hide himself, down inside himself he prays
Someone swears his true love until the end of time, another runs away
Separate or united, healthy or insane
[Chorus 2]
To be yourself is all that you can do
To be yourself is all that you can do
To be yourself is all that you can do
To be yourself is all that you can do
[Guitar Solo]
[Bridge]
And even when you've paid enough
Been pulled apart or been held up
Every single memory of the good or bad
Faces of love
Don't lose any sleep tonight
I'm sure everything will end up alright
You may win or lose
[Chorus 1]
But to be yourself is all that you can do
To be yourself is all that you can do
[Chorus 2]
To be yourself is all that you can do
To be yourself is all that you can do
To be yourself is all that you can do
To be yourself is all that you can do
[Outro]
Be yourself is all that you can
Be yourself is all that you can do
Thanks
¿ Why this beautiful soul had to leave this world in such a horrible way? I miss him, a fan who still fighting against his demons since 4 years ago.
the video is subbed......this is unnecessary
thanks 😘
@@theliah5038 welcome🙂
We will miss you Chris
What a legend!
Man wish we still had this guy making music today. I was in college when all this music came out. Can’t listen to this without a few tears coming out of the corner of my eye. Thanks for the memories Chris.
Really. The joy from his music & the pain from our loss.
my dad recently showed me lots of his music growing up in his teenage years, he really had good taste in music Thanks dad i love you with my soul 🤞🏼
yesssssss
Lost my daddy almost three years ago, treasure this

Que alguien te muestre la canción que aprecia, sumale que es tu padre, te esta entregando una parte de él, algo que le alegra la vida.
Attaboy!!!
One of the best songs of all time. The lyrics, this riff, the feelings, all of that. Just be yourself, my friends.
Thanks Chris, Tim, Brad & Tom ❤
"Even when you've paid enough
Been pulled apart
Or been held up
Every single memory of
The good or bad, faces of love
Don't lose any sleep tonight
I'm sure everything will end up alright
You may win or lose"
This part is perfection!
Strangely, I did not discover the magic that was Chris Cornell until after his death. I will forever regret I never got to see this beautiful man perform in person. I love him and his music.
Better late than never, my guy. He might be gone, but his music is forever.
Same, I missed out, it’s really sad that this guy’s life was messed up, and prematurely ended because of drugs, I mean, he was handsome, he could play several instruments, he had a four octave range, he was married, he had kids, millions of people admired him, and then we went and killed himself. Really tragic
Same
Porque, porque mierda nos dejan así...
miles de vidas, miles de historias lloran por tú partida... Tú voz incomparable voz, talento, genio!
Nos estamos llenando de música basura y nuestros mejores se nos van! Si, soy egoista, me da rabia y pena aun no puedo asumir esta triste noticia... Gracias, infinitas gracias por ser parte de una y miles vidas...
Jessy Ileana duele mucho su partida :(
saludos desde Chile
Me hiciste llorar, yo crecí con toda su discografía, siento que un hermano se fue.......
