The way he apologizes for having us "suffer through just a stupid acoustic" and then produces one of the best live performances I have ever come across is truly legendary.!
I feel so guilty, he helped countless people suffering from Depression via his lyrics. But he couldn't help himself the bitter irony of being a prophet.
simple shirt pair with denim jeans and acoustic guitar with fuckin wavy hair and hell of a kind voice. Damn, Absolutely he got all what it takes to be a rockstar.
He always seemed so humble. I don’t think he really knew how gifted he was. He was so good that he never had to tell the public how good he was to gain recognition. His performances did it for him. R.I.P. Chris.
I think he knew how gifted he was . . . and that doesn't mean he wasn't humble. He was very humble, just like Layne Staley was. They had a reaper coming for them.
You were not just a guy with a stupid acoustic my friend..you were so much more than that...you were my biggest inspiration...Rest in Peace up there...
@I Am King your psychological knowledge particularly with regards to depression is clearly zero. Anyone with an ounce intelligence (present company excepted) would realise that the extent of someone's depression has nothing to do with so called privileges, whatever they may or may not be. If you are trying to be the least intelligent person on the internet I can sincerely say you are off to a good start.
I really know what you are singing about. My husband of 25 years died last month. He was an incredible guitarist who toured the world. His passing was a big deal in Detroit. He had hundreds of fans locally and was considered one of the best to come from here. I've truly fallen on Black Days. I was always upset that Chris's death took place in Detroit. He was the best.
Just one man and his guitar in front of thousands of people. Mesmerising, stunning, inspirational. You were and still are a legend sir, and will go down in history as one of the greatest vocalists of all time. Respect to you and yours.
Thanks for honoring him as a sir. He should be knighted, if that even meant anything, anymore. SIR Christopher Cornell, indeed. We should create an honorarium for all of the grunge musicians who have died.
Many people with suicidal thoughts keep most of them to themselves and never even tell close friends or family members. I know because that's what I have been doing for years. When you fall on black days everything is colored with darkness. Everything feels heavy man. People can look at you and have no idea what s going on inside. They can easily assume everything is cool with you. In the darkness nothing else exists to pull you through. If you have not experienced depression, bipolar, or other mental health issues you might not understand the depths of the darkness that many of us hide.
So have I my friend my favorite lyric is Whomsoever I've cured, I've sickened now And whomsoever I've cradled, I've put you down I'm a search light soul they say But I can't see it in the night I'm only faking when I get it right When I get it right- 2022 Fall asleep to him every night 🌙
Very much so! This song misses nothing without the rest of the band. Ive heard several solo performances, and it’s really striking how much control he had over the guitar and his skill at arranging as well.
I enjoyed his music back when I was in highschool but now that I am older and can hear all these acoustic personal jams I understand I really under appreciated his gift. Definitely one of all time best voices/ musicians. RIP brother; I know your playing for a bigger audience now.
The live performance gives an amazing new feeling to this song for me. The audience ambience and acoustics just sounds better. I like it better than the studio version.
I've seen this before...with those deeply experienced with depression...you can beat it for a while and sometimes it comes back so intensely hard and gripping and it ends in that moment - often with suicide. This song is so heart breaking to me yet so melodic, so entrancing, so terrifyingly sad.
This song makes me sob and terrifies me at the same time - I cannot understand how something so awful could happen to him. I now wish I did not know details of how he died - I feel haunted.
Excellent performance! This is so cool to see and hear him do this w/ just an acoustic guitar and that voice. Thanks for sharing this. This is my favorite one he wrote, apparently one of his as well. R.I.P. Tears again, we're losing too many of the most important people that ever lived. Just lost Tom Petty and that hit hard too. Not good.🕐▶🎼🔊. 💘
EVERYDAY THAT WE HAD CHRIS WITH US HERE ON THIS EARTH WAS FKN. MAGIC. ❣️💜 As he told us in his last text, HE WAS THE SPACE THAT FILLS THAT HOLE IN OUR HEARTS!!💜❣️❤️☮️ NO MORE BLACK DAYS FOR YOU AND CHESTER.! ☮️ FINALLY AT PEACE, BEAUTIFUL CHRIS! ☀️😇💜 SURE DON'T MIND THE CHANGE. ☮️
Quem viu e ouviu esse gigante ao vivo num palco foi sortudo. Caras como Chris Cornel é uma dádiva da arte. Cantava muito, voz inconfundível e um puta performer.
TH-cam is weird. This was uploaded over nine years ago and it just showed up in my suggestions. Great performance by Chris...the world is a little less without him.
I'd have given a million dollars to be there to hear "just a guy with a stupid acoustic" Chris... would give 10x that amount to have you hear singing still today. Your voice was, is and will always be pure magic.
What a man. What a beautiful voice. And more with an acoustic guitar by himself than most bands. I sure don't mind the change. And now no one sings like you any more.
He was losing his voice at this point in his life. God, I miss all of these guys. They're almost all gone now and it brings a tear to my eye every time I think about it. The Nineties, I miss you. Sincerely, Chris. (my name is Chris too)
Hey man you know I lost my mom and my sister in the past 2 years but listening to your music helps because I know you lost too rock on brother I need you man
Chris i think you wrote a lot of music to try and see if we were listening. (And we) were) and still are You are so good at seeing what's going on Love you Brother. Rickpaul
I saw soundgarden play at lollapalooza '92. I've been a fan of theirs from way back. my favorite band by far is nirvana. Kurt cobain was so ridiculously talented in so many ways. but I must say, I never realized how good chris Cornell was until is saw this. very talented, very effortless.
.the most beautiful voice ever !!!!!!! And the soundtrack to my youth....... so sad you had to leave this world - RIP... and warm thoughts to friends and family.
Everyone talks about his vocal range which is fantastic but it's the lyrics that transfix us with the concepts of pain, death, loss and the unknown. He had his demons and I don't know how his brain was wired but if pills pushed him over the edge I'm pissed off. Same for Prince and Heath Ledger.
and Layne Staley, Chester Bennington, Scott Weiland... just to add a couple more to that list. Their music gave us light while they were in the darkness. :(
"You won't have to suffer through a guy and a stupid acoustic." I wish I could've suffered. RIP
I seriously second this.
3rd
same brotha
Absolutely 100% Wish I/we could have suffered so much. #RiPChris
I'd suffer Forever!!! 🖤🖤🖤 Dam how can you miss someone so much..BLACK DAZE NOW...
The world is a lesser place without Chris Cornell.
The way he apologizes for having us "suffer through just a stupid acoustic" and then produces one of the best live performances I have ever come across is truly legendary.!
Self-doubt of genius
I feel so guilty, he helped countless people suffering from Depression via his lyrics. But he couldn't help himself the bitter irony of being a prophet.
You hit the nail on the head! 😢so true!!!

that should be framed up and gift wrapped.

Awesome

Ethan Ragnarok HES EPIC
Well said, such a deeply talented man.
@I Am King Really! What does everything actually mean? Have you ever had long term depression and suicidal thoughts most days of the week? Feck off!
@I Am King your psychological knowledge particularly with regards to depression is clearly zero.

I hope time has healed some of your wounds. You were 100% spot-on about Chris.
I'm sorry to hear about your loss. I'm sure your husband was a huge fan of Chris as well. Greatest vocalist of all time imo.
Just one man and his guitar in front of thousands of people. Mesmerising, stunning, inspirational. You were and still are a legend sir, and will go down in history as one of the greatest vocalists of all time. Respect to you and yours.

Amen! I get chills & tear up almost EVERYTIME I hear him! Especially, acoustic! (Read my earlier comment ) Best vocals ever!!!
He is such a beautiful person. The world is less without Chris.
Many people with suicidal thoughts keep most of them to themselves and never even tell close friends or family members. I know because that's what I have been doing for years.

Just try Wim Hof method my friend. All black days will disappear in a few days and you will never see them again.
Sums me up perfectly....
🙏🏼
100%. The strongest people are also often the most tormented.
So have I my friend my favorite lyric is Whomsoever I've cured, I've sickened now
And whomsoever I've cradled, I've put you down
I'm a search light soul they say
But I can't see it in the night
I'm only faking when I get it right
When I get it right-
2022 Fall asleep to him every night 🌙
What an underrated guitar player to!
Very much so!
This song misses nothing without the rest of the band.
Ive heard several solo performances, and it’s really striking how much control he had over the guitar and his skill at arranging as well.
His songs are so beautiful. His pain is so tragic. Rip Chris Cornell.
Say Hello to Heaven Chris.....
There was no one like him in the history of Rock and Roll 🙏
"Hands are for shaking, not tying".
Hauntingly prophetic lyrics.
Best voice ever, and best looking man ever.
This is the Real Chris singing & play guitar with pure Emotion just him & us Beautiful unplugged
Beautiful. Man my heart hurts so much.... RIP Chris, you will never be forgotten...
I am in awe of the artist Chris Cornell. Thank you God for allowing me to be alive to have witnessed such talent
Shocking that this only has 92k views. Incredibly underrated artist. Rest in peace brother.
This shit hurts my heart. Thank you Chris for your music and for yourself
A soul that lived in darkness a house of light for others❤
Such an apt summary of his life and importance!
That's how Chris Cornell wins the crowd over, with that beautiful voice he had and I miss it too. I love that guy.
He won me over before he even started with that self-deprecating crack about a guy and a stupid acoustic. lol
@@rebeccastevens1876 I know, he's so humble, or was.
I enjoyed his music back when I was in highschool but now that I am older and can hear all these acoustic personal jams I understand I really under appreciated his gift. Definitely one of all time best voices/ musicians. RIP brother; I know your playing for a bigger audience now.
Gives me chills. One of my favorite songs to cover. We did an acoustic rendition and I did the screams and I always gave it my all.
The best voice and talent, RIP, you will be so missed but your music will live on.🙏🏻
I’ve definitely fell on black days. Great song, great singer, guitarist and great artist. 🤙🏽
The always amaizing voice of Chris Cornell with his incrieble acoustic touch RIP for one more legend
RIP Chris
yes
No one could see this wasn't just a song, it was his life. And, eventually he couldn't live with it.
Oh my god! Very true! Its so heartbreaking!
I've never loved listening to a musician as perfect as Chris Cornell..ever...greatly appreciated...missed..loved
Sun spots are fading but your voice will echo for eternity.
When I pass, Chris will be on the top of my list of people to meet in Heaven....
Rest in Peace Chris You're going to be deeply missed by so many....#heartbroken
Erin Tackkett what hurts me is his kids are with out a loving father
heartbroken, thanks for your talks Chris.....
One of the most underrated Masters of the craft
Rest in Peace Chris, thank you for all the beautiful music you gave us!
A LOVELY voice and human being that needed to speak to someone!! Thanks Chris! Peace brother
The live performance gives an amazing new feeling to this song for me. The audience ambience and acoustics just sounds better. I like it better than the studio version.

His voice is so full of pain and thats why he was one of the best ever ...RIP CHRIS!!!
Chris, no one "suffered" listening to you.......we are suffering NOT hearing you now........we were blessed to hear you! RIP.
RIP... definitely a black day.
This song makes me sob and terrifies me at the same time - I cannot understand how something so awful could happen to him. I now wish I did not know details of how he died - I feel haunted.
He didn't need a band . . . . I miss him so much . . . with love
Chris was the man
The acoustic versions, only a guitar and Chris's voice, are always the best. So simple and so good.
Damn! This is a masterpiece!! Unbelievable performance Chris. We miss you brother..
The most painful musician passing I’ve felt. God I miss this guy. We got his music at least
From 88 to 97/98....whatvwas call grunge...most amazin voices and musicians ever. ..amazing lirycs with a lot of meaning for people tgat understand it
great performance Chris; miss you so
Excellent performance! This is so cool to see and hear him do this w/ just an acoustic guitar and that voice. Thanks for sharing this. This is my favorite one he wrote, apparently one of his as well. R.I.P.
Tears again, we're losing too many of the most important people that ever lived. Just lost Tom Petty and that hit hard too. Not good.🕐▶🎼🔊. 💘
Awesome performance.
Chris Cornell, you're always missed. 😞

My man you ruled, RIP!!!!
Miss him so much still... Can't believe it's gonna be a year in May. Feels like yesterday. RIP Rock Legend.

A voz do Chris cornell é sem dúvida....a melhor voz do Rock....única sem esforço....ao vivo ....gravado ....mesma coisa .....descanse em paz ....
R.I.P Chris Cornell
He was and always will be the greatest rock singer of all time. His voice actually reminded me of an early Stephen Tyler at a couple points
What a beautiful soul! You are truly missed! ❤wish you were here!😢
What a man. What a beautiful voice. And more with an acoustic guitar by himself than most bands. I sure don't mind the change. And now no one sings like you any more.
a guy and a stupid acoustic that changed my life. chris forever. such a loss
He was losing his voice at this point in his life. God, I miss all of these guys. They're almost all gone now and it brings a tear to my eye every time I think about it. The Nineties, I miss you. Sincerely, Chris. (my name is Chris too)
the only stupid thing was the way you left us! We miss you. Your music was part of my life! Call Me a Dog has helped me with many women! lol RIP Cris
Oh how i love your voice and will allways love your music❤
One of his best song...
This is their best song
Hey man you know I lost my mom and my sister in the past 2 years but listening to your music helps because I know you lost too rock on brother I need you man
Chris i think you wrote a lot of music to try and see if we were listening. (And we) were) and still are
You are so good at seeing what's going on
Love you Brother.
Rickpaul
Truth Stranger Than Fiction it was not words of an Addiction but one caring man's Affliction.🙏
RIP brother. You are greatly missed. I wish you saw what we see when you look at yourself. An absolutely beautiful soul
Love this entire album
💝 you 4 ever chris, love this song so much. RIP CHRIS
Swu remains as one of the best brazilian festivals ever...Hope It comes back again
I just can't even put it together yet Chris... 😭💔 Scott last year, and now you. God dammit
I'm on black days missing my family my mom dad and sister,if you know anyone sad reach out. Miss Chris
Damn it, Chris!
I saw soundgarden play at lollapalooza '92. I've been a fan of theirs from way back. my favorite band by far is nirvana. Kurt cobain was so ridiculously talented in so many ways. but I must say, I never realized how good chris Cornell was until is saw this. very talented, very effortless.
My favorite take on this Soundgarden classic. 3:05 “Hands are for shaking not tying!”
.the most beautiful voice ever !!!!!!! And the soundtrack to my youth....... so sad you had to leave this world - RIP... and warm thoughts to friends and family.
I wish I could have seen him in a concert my daughter was blessed to have seen him s wonderful talented man definitely
Such a great talent.
soulful eyes....
I love this man! Real talk 2023
Everyone talks about his vocal range which is fantastic but it's the lyrics that transfix us with the concepts of pain, death, loss and the unknown. He had his demons and I don't know how his brain was wired but if pills pushed him over the edge I'm pissed off. Same for Prince and Heath Ledger.
and Layne Staley, Chester Bennington, Scott Weiland... just to add a couple more to that list. Their music gave us light while they were in the darkness. :(
Forget the vocal range. Just his timbre that aged like good wine or his melodies alone were enough to bring tears.
Searchlight soul they say...
But I can't see it in the night
r.i.p. chris...one of my fave
