For the past 10+ years since my brother showed me this cover when I was just a kid, i've always come back to it every once in a while. I'm 22 now and I can honestly say I still get the same buzz from the moment the vocals kick in, big thank you to you for making such a banging cover of this song it's so nostalgic to me. Hope you're doing well bro
I sing in a cover band of AIC here in Brazil, and man, gotta say you did a brilliant job! From singer to singer, I'm so happy that quite talented singers as you, will never forget of our beloved Layne. All my admiration and respect..congrats!
There's a lot of reverb, but I can see why he decided to put it, since without it the overall mix (being quite simple, since it's just voice + guitar as opposed to the bigger original arrangement) would sound thinner. Plus, it delivers a nice take on the chorus, as he's actually "staying away"... like, faaaar away. :D
+Ray Klish effects arent always meant to cover flaws. I think the reverb gives his performances an interesting sound. especially when u take in account the kind of songs he does might sound a bit empty otherwise.
I commented something like this in other of his videos, he is REALLY good, and although the effects makes an interesting sound, the excess of reverb kind of doesn't let enjoy his talent (my opinion)
The best cover I've heard on youtube. Makes me want to pick up the guitar again. Came close, picked up the jazz III pick, a quick little smile and shake of head. Then I put it back down again. Seems like a lifetime ago. Cool story yeah.
Im a huge alice in chains fan and since ive heard this song a couple days ago, i hear this version in my head every time i think of the song... Very good job man!
Was just going through my old fb posts and found this one.. Its been 11 years since I heard your cover last. God damn legendary. Appreciate you brother!
Wow your guitar sounds awsome, and dont listen to this guys telling you that you have too much reverb its obvious you have a great voice with or without effects. About the guitar sound what effects do you have on it ?? Thanks
That first notes when you started singing reminded me of late Cornell and the rest of the song is crazy cool executed! Got a new subscriber, it’s hella fun listening to you doing your thing brother.
So under the influence of life, my friend and i thought this performance was "Phenomenal, Spectacular, Transcendant, and Needed." We will show this video to everyone we can. Thank you, good luck.
Absolutely amazing!!! Love it!!!! Honestly can't stop listening to it! An all time favorite from when Jar of Flies album came out soooo long ago! You are incredible!!!!
I am a huge fan of Layne, i have covered would, got me wrong, angry chair and such like. The quality of the audio and video is outstanding, you did a great job of ' I stay away '.
I rlly rlly do enjoy the reverb. Especially with a song like this, it sounds so angelic. Almost brings me to tears. Amazing job dude. I love this cover 100% 🤘🏻🤘🏻

Hey thanks man. 😊
I agree and today I'm back it's been years since I discovered this
It's still as good as the first time I heard it!!
layne had a great voice.
i'm 57 and AiC is still my fav.
keep singing and the effects are good
I don't mind the effects at all. Think they fit the song nicely
I liked it.
Yeah I thought that too I kinda enjoyed this more then the original cause of the vibe it sets with that effect
sounds like vedder 00:40 haha
exactly my first thought, when he started to sing...
Yeah you guys are hearing the same thing I am....I like it...good job
Staley > Vedder
@@jannorris4140 personally, i always thought Vedder sounded like he had a mouthful of peanut butter.
@@briancooney9952 I always misheard "Jeremy spoke in class today" as "devil eats burgers in class today" lol

Best cover of any AiC song I ever heard. I love the echo, it makes it feel like a real concert in a stadium or something.
Mark of a good cover:
First time I've even thought of this song in years. Rather than go find the original, perfectly content to enjoy this one.
I seriously got chills when I heard the effect on that mic. Great job

The reverb makes it shine!
You're too good for this amount of effects, brother. I wanna hear your stuff raw.
+Ray Klish effects arent always meant to cover flaws. I think the reverb gives his performances an interesting sound. especially when u take in account the kind of songs he does might sound a bit empty otherwise.
Yeah man! I really wanna hear him without effects
I commented something like this in other of his videos, he is REALLY good, and although the effects makes an interesting sound, the excess of reverb kind of doesn't let enjoy his talent (my opinion)
I like the effects.
Cesar Sanvicente I think it's great. I love Alice in Chains. I also enjoy hearing what other people's interpretation of the songs.
Sounds real good. Acoustic gives this song a different feel.
Amazing cover, man. Great tribute to Layne. Can't believe it's been 10 years...
You're amazing! I'd like to hear more of your AiC covers!
i back to this vídeo 5 or 6 times for year, since 2019. Such inspiration this version
You are so lucky to have such a great voice. Well done a fantastic performance all round.
I watched this video when he released it. coming back 12 years later. Thankl you for the content man.
😊
Pitchin up a tent in the Alaskan wilderness. Trekking alone. Those are the images this rendition of the song gives me.
First heard this back in 2013, found your channel again after all these years. It was amazing then, it still is now. Bravo!
Really cool voice. I like your reverb in the vocals. Congratulations from France !
