  • How did this announcer ever get on tv...it's like he's just reading...guess a few tattoos gives anyone street credibility now.

  • words can't say what a lose this was.

  • Te recordamos Layne donde queira que te encuentres por que se van ustedes se les extraña mucho el Rock no es lo mismo y nunca mas sera lo mismo. atte. Fernando silhia.

  • this douchefuck reporter shows no emotion what so ever when talking about staley...fucking asshole. oh well, as long as mtv is payin him he doesnt give a shit.

  • @mtndewman1022 He didn't die from Marijuana. It was cocaine, meth, and other drugs..

  • ! Am sad alone he was for two weeks welcome to reality him and kurt cobain am utterly sad

  • honest voice

  • So sad.. The man had an amazing voice. Addiction sucks!!!!!

  • whoa its ironic this was announced on 4/20

  • @goblinob Well, now when you think, Limp Bizkit wasnt anything compared to todays shit rock, every rock bands are shit today, fkin copied shit, Limp Bizkit were good, and rage against the machine say what you have against them? I listen to Nirvana and AIC, Mother Love Bone, Soundgarden and imp Bizkit and also Rage Against the Machine i dont understand whats wrong with them?

  • Its not Alice in Chains anymore... Its just another Jerry Cantrell project... poor guy tries to hard... and the music they make nowadays... is alright.... and thats all its ever gonna be... whatever music Layne was in had heart and soul... without him... its just money makin rock n' roll R.I.P

  • it tears me to pieces that no one cared to worry about him for 2 weeks

  • @RockZeWorld It not that they didnt care or worry. IT is well known that Layne was a recluse and it increased after demri parrott his long time on and off again girlfriend died in 1996. Most of the members of the band dint talk to him the 2 years before his death and the only time it's known he went out was when his niece was born other than that he had drugs brought to him in hos gated apartment complex so to not hear from him for two weeks probably wasn't abnormal you know?

  • @RockZeWorld second that! people indifferences are more guilty of people's fates than the path they chose to deal with :(

  • @RockZeWorld he was isolated for years. His choice and all the power to him for that.

  • @RockZeWorld Completely true. But the thing was that he used to disappear for two or more weeks, possibly doing drugs, so they were used to that behavior. But it still breaks my heart...

  • @RockZeWorld oh i know how you feel. i was only 7 or 8when it happened so i didnt understand that. but they've been my fav band sense i was nine months old acourding to my parents. and when i found out i was the saddest 1st grader in the would.

  • ofcorse its going to be announced on 4/20.... RIP Layne :(

  • The fatfuck is like: "yeah how do i look talking here on TV? Am I do it right? Im the man yeah! i dont care if hes dead or whatever" Dude, when you talk about Layne, please act properly you bitch! Layne Staley does not diserve that some piece of shit is talking about him like that. RIP Layne. You´ll be missed..

  • If I meet this fat slug on the road ever am gonna beat the shit outta him!!!

  • How the hell was he able to report this without breaking into tears?

  • fat f*ck!

  • kurt offed himself then this , mothafucking 90's scarred me for life

  • I can barely even listen to the new AIC. They don't suck or anything...it's just not Lane. Anyone else feel the same?

  • @Bigvader and yet you spell his name wrong. You're not really a fan, are you?

  • @RockZeWorld Really? Because I accidentally left the "y" out of his fucking name I'm automatically "not really a fan?" Jesus, dude. You're a fucking douche and an idiot. Why the hell would I or anyone else waste my time watching and commenting on an MTV News clip from 2002 about the death of Layne Staley if I'm not a fan? Question; are you legally obligated to carry your helmet and drool cup with you everywhere you go or are you allowed to leave it home on short trips? Fucktard.

  • @Bigvader Well it wasn't a typo that's for sure. A lot of people, like you, who bash the "new" AIC can't even spell Layne which is quite ironic. It's not very hard. I don't know why you watched it. I'm not psychic. My guess would be that you're still living in the past. Accept the William Duvall and listen to the "new" AIC because it's great music

  • @RockZeWorld It wasn't a typo? Really? Soooo...you were here at my house when I typed it and heard me say, "dude, I'm pretty sure there's no 'y' in his name?" LOL. It WAS a typo, I've been a HUGE fan since '91 (my freshman year) when I heard the full Facelift album for the first time and there's no telling how many times I've listened to "Dirt," one of the best albums, IMO, of all time. You like the new AIC? Awesome. Spend your time listening to them instead of nit-picking comments!

  • @RockZeWorld ...and BTW, I do like the new stuff. I just meant that TO ME (and that's the kicker) it's not nearly as good as it was when Layne was the front man. I'm still a huge fan of Jerry Cantrell and Inez is just as good on the bass as ever. I just very much miss Layne's vocals. DuVall is a good singer in his own rite, but Layne's voice was just so fucking unique, you know?

  • i think this announcer could use some heroin himself.

  • By the time his body was finally discovered in his apartment, Layne Staley was no longer Staley.

    He was just STALE.

    RIP Layne Staley, you are missed beautiful man

  • man..it's like i just saw this death announcement yesterday..STILL miss and love you layne.

  • I disliked this as a matter of principle. I can't like a tragic death like that.

  • Diggin' the Dirty Rotten Imbeciles shirt. :D

    Anyway, I miss Layne. He was incredible... :/

  • His voice was just PERFECTION!!!!

  • Pinhead... Matt Pinhead if I remember correctly

  • @00SIvlE00 no this is Ian Robinson. Matt Pinfield was the musical encyclopedia. He knew everything about music.

  • @WeskersValentine Ahh okay thanks. I was close... Looks wise anyway

  • DRI= Dry Run Intercorse

  • fuck mtv.

  • weird...this was announced on 4/20

  • this sucks

  • here again jackass. it wasnt a SERIOUS statement.

  • Comment removed

  • A hundred fans? Seriously??

  • on 4/20? really?! wow...i bet more pot has never been smoked than it was that day

  • Layne another true talent of the 90's gone. Drugs to some fucked up stuff, especially with some of the most talent musicians

  • how can you be so calm tellin about layne staleys death?!

  • @yomommaisfat123 lol what do you want him to do CRY lol get real..The guy didn't mean shit to him..Just another pointless death in the long line of drug induced suicide...IDC what anyone says if you shoot yourself or O.D on drugs it's all the same..SUICIDE..And that condemns the soul to eternal damnation..Sorry God is not making a band with these Banished souls

  • @toobmaniac, okay guy, i didnt need a lecture on it. im just a big alice in chains fan, and was refurring to, we lost a good musician. do your really think anybody cares about what your have to say? i sure as hell dont.

  • @yomommaisfat123 Lmao idc what anyone thinks either..I was looking at stuff with Jerry in it..And came across all these silly statements...There is a god and that entity is not what anyone thinks it is..All religion has been twisted..But the afterlife where our souls go on is in a different dimension and i doubt a soul will progress that has tried to kill its own self..They are locked into this realm because the lessons it was supposed to learn were not learned

  • Respond to this video... There are tons of classical musicians that could mop the floor with any Rock Guitarist if all you are looking for is technical expertise...I particularly like Jimmy Page..He wasn't the best but he was a good writer and had the coolest stage show

  • @toobmaniac lol ok your saying god didnt give a shit about them? its obvious you dont read teh bible but anyways your christian opinion is just a opinion not a fact there is no fact that god the mighty asshole is real

  • @yomommaisfat123 He's doing his job. Maybe he's not supposed to be biased. Maybe you were devastated, but do you really think that everybody feels the same way you do?? You might want to listen to a nice Beatles' song call "Within Without". George and the guys were mighty wise.

  • The fat MTV guy! I forgot about him.

  • Kurt and Layne both died on my birthday :O

  • @nirvanafoo98 big respect for kurt, but id be more like Jimi on guitar

  • Sure am glad I don't have to hear this chunk talk anymore! Go back to your hole, boy.

  • The anchor if a faggot. R.I.P. Layne Staley and R.I.P. Mike Starr

  • This guy sounds way too happy to make this kind announcement. Have a little respect asshole...

  • I freaking hate whoever the fat disrespectful lump of a presenter is. I hope that he is back flipping burgers where he belongs

  • I remember seeing this when i was 8, i remember sayin who gives a shit bc i didnt know him, and now a listen to AIC every fuckin day and just can't get enough. Layne is now my favorite singer of all time. Now I give a shit, bc there will not be anybody to come close to Laynes vocal status :) *Legend*

  • M.T.V. Unplugged killed Cobain and Layne Staley. Wierd how they died soon after they did the show?

  • we are talking about layne

    not others

    R.I.P. LAYNE

  • Adema? wow, been a while since I heard from that band.

  • its just a shame he had to witness limp bizkit

  • @nirvanafoo98 Dont Forget John Bonham on drums XD

  • MTV sucks, I don't even know why they get to call themselves "Music Television" when I barely see anything relevant to it.

  • Saddest shit ever, take this vid down

  • Layne died 11 days and 8 years after Kurt. Next year is already 10 years of his death and almost 20 years of Kurt's death.

  • MTV, GET OFF THE AIR!!!

  • This is bringing back memories. I don't want to remember this day :(

  • he died on 4 20 o.O

  • @higyhagd he was dead for 2 weeks+ later announced

  • @xxjmp209xx,He must have been spoiling at that point.

  • this jittery fat slug should never be on tv again

  • @TheSleathable yea...that asshole has no signs of emotions..

  • R.I.P. Layne, we miss you bro!

  • What does Ann Wilson have to do with Alice in Chains ? She was mentioned in this video at the end and she introduced them when Phil Anselmo sang with them for VH1. ???? Does anyone know ?

  • @brodemonz she sang in the song "brother" so that might be why

  • i think they would throw hendrix in the band as far as drummer id say keith moon RIP layne and all the great talents that went before there time

  • Well said Tom Morello., well said.

  • fat fuck

  • @metalFlover i just came here to say the same thing hahahah

  • @dumaramutsi Well thanks so much for your juvenile input. I get where your head's at.

  • @metalFlover Yeah, but his got a job people would kill for.

  • @ladyfuschia where's the question?

  • @metalFlover No question. But I found a typo: "He's got a job......blah....blah...."

  • @ladyfuschia Shut the fuck up and make me a sandwich

  • @metalFlover Make it yourself, Bitch. And be sure to clean up your mess.

  • My 3 fav bands Ever! Alice in Chains, Iron Maiden and Metalica! Nuff said. Rest In Peace.

  • there is no god though lol

  • @dabaron332 You really sure about that? just askin'.

  • @blank21121 pretty damn sure

    theres also no point to life, existence, or anything.

    there's no consciousness after the physical brain is destroyed.

  • @dabaron332 mhmm. well, i may not agree with you, but i respect your opinion.

  • god is making a band

    Kurt Cobain-Guitar

    Layne Staley-Vocals

    Mike Starr-Bass

  • @nirvanafoo98 kurt would sing too

  • @Bananinasdasd yea kurt and layne could come up with awesome harmonies like jerry and layne did :)

  • @nirvanafoo98 Is he the drummer?

  • @holyswordsmanoffaith maybe....who knows???

  • @nirvanafoo98 Hrmm....god as a drummer....dunno. Maybe he's got John Bonham up there.

  • @nirvanafoo98 make Dave Grohl the drummer.

  • @nopp1 yea but he hasnt died yet but when it comes his time i hope it definately will :))

  • @nirvanafoo98 let's just hope it doesnt come ^^

  • @nopp1 yea i hope so too

  • @nopp1 he's still alive retard

  • @LoathersGonnaLoathe dude i know that -.-

  • @nirvanafoo98

    Lead guitar: Jerry Cantrell.

  • @ShadowJax04 Kurt Cobain was an average guitarist at best

  • Comment removed

  • Comment removed

  • I wrote wrong, make Jerry the riff-meister rythm and Kurt lead :) See, that would be awesome! And maybe Dave Grohl or Sean Kinney on drums!

  • @SatanicalEve Agreed, Kurt Cobain had difficulty playing simple chords, Pat Smears was brought in to basically fill that gap.

    I honestly don't want to say anything negative because AIC and Nirvana were some of my earliest memory's of actually enjoying music, but you'd be a fool not to admit that Cobains debilitating heroin addiction affected his playing.

  • @nirvanafoo98 cliff burton-bass

  • @nirvanafoo98 Danny Carey-Drums

  • @nirvanafoo98 COBAINE SUCKS BALLS.. Terrible Guitar Player. Dimebag you fool. Dime was a lot closer to Chains than Nirvana was to them.

  • @skinlikewinter10 To each his own, but Cobain was talented, just as Layne was.

  • @skinlikewinter10 shut the fuck up son you wouldnt be able to write a song like Kurt or express feelings with your voice like he did anus face, and Jimi Hendrix would be rocking the guitar over dimebag any fucking day. Kurt never had the greatest voice but the way he expressed emotions through his voice was beyond anyone, you could feel the pain, Layne did a good job at that also, Kurt would be backup vocals the guitarist next to jimi who would be lead and dime would be watching.

  • @nirvanafoo98 hmm their has to be two guitarists Kurt and Jimi Hendrix, Jimi can do all the solo's and kurt can do backup vocals. And on bass Mike starr? c'mon man he was good but not great John Entwistle is playing bass.

  • @nirvanafoo98 because we all no Kurt can sing.....you know not having a mouth anymore and what not

  • @nirvanafoo98 Kurt wasn't THAT good playing guitar. He was nothing compared to Jerry Cantrell, Mike McCready and Kim Thayil.

  • @nirvanafoo98 I would replace cobain with Dimebag Darrell

  • @nirvanafoo98 Take cobain and starr off the list, add dimbag and burton.

  • Comment removed

  • @Beholder505 All of y'all always forget Bonham

    

  • @Ummarth9 Bonham wouldn't be able to keep up.

  • @nirvanafoo98 that band would be fucking awesome!!! xD

  • @nirvanafoo98 you mean lucifer is making a band don't you...???

  • @toobmaniac why would they go to hell i believe all three of them believe in god

  • @nirvanafoo98 dude dimebag was a better guitar player than cobain

  • @nirvanafoo98 or ronnie james dio vocals

    dime bag darrel guitars

    randy rhoads guitar

    cliff burton bass

    gar samuelson drums

  • 34? damn he was young

  • MTV sucks!!! Layne R.I.P.

  • u cocksucker talking shit about such an amazing, talented musician! i bet ur life is fuckin shitty and u have nothing better to do but try n make urself look better...go eat a cock faggot RIP LAYNE!!!

  • Comment removed

  • he cut off what the quote from Layne's band mates said :/

  • @Wild1033 not true at all buddy not true at all, and I won't tell u why... U Shuld really go look up why.

  • @sylicone221 you wonder why people think your a joke? god man show some fucking respect look what he's been thru u faggot somebody should shoot u in the fucking head.

  • if i ever run into jerry 'all i care about is money' cantrell, i'll spit in his face for turning his back on this amazing human being when he needed people around him most and for him spitting on layne's legacy by replacing him after he died. i never cried so hard in one day. i bet jerry didnt shed one tear...

  • rotting corpse hheheheheee...

  • I can remember where i was and what i was doing when i heard Layne was dead. That was a sad day for me. His voice can not be replaced or re-created. RIP Layne. and thank you for the great music.

  • happened on 4.20

  • I saw Alice in Chains at Hard Rock in Vegas back in October. I have to say they still sound awesome. No, William Duvall did NOT replace Layne Staley. He was there in Staley's absence and did well covering his songs.

  • I dont understand , A guy blows his fucking head off and everybody thinks its the worst thing ever (Kurt) , But when Layne dies , he didnt kill himself , It was a mistake , No one gives a fuck ... *Sigh

  • @MATTHEWTHEINGRAM the only reason that is, is because nirvana was a more popular band then alice in chains

  • We die young... 

  • I could live in the days of AIC music forever... Such a legend

  • The chose the worst news reporter to announce the death of such a legendary man.

  • this fat guy is shaking too much

  • That fat arse deserves to be slapped. I mean, show some respect.

  • stupic fat boy he seems not respecting Layne

  • worm food

  • @sylicone221 he was cremated and fuck you for being so awful. go to a bible sight or something where you belong. i can't believe i am responding to your nastiness but i keep seeing you saying "worm food" on different sites. you could well end up WORM FOOD one day with your attitude.

  • @daisypeachy yeah worm food heheheheee....worms enjoy your meal heheheehe....mike is worm food too hehheheheehe...junkie ass losers hehehehhehhehehehehehehee

  • @sylicone221 You get off on pissing others off. You have such a small dick that you have to bypass being mad and resort to upsetting fans of someone who died. You sir are a fuckin small dick retard.

  • @jag2424 worm food

  • @sylicone221 oh thats the only two words you know? my bad man, I didn't mean to rag on you for having a mental disorder. I feel bad now, sorry bro... Ugh this is awkward

  • @sylicone221

    Have some fkn respect asshole!

    i bet a whole lot of youtube users cant wait until you are WORM FOOD, faggot!

  • @xluxuryxsparks he was a HAS BEEN hehehehee like dana plato or rob pilatus heheheheheeeeee

  • @sylicone221

    how is he a has been ? This mans talent was incredible, he will live on forever, to anyone tht knows music.

    seriously dude wtf is ur problem? how could u hate this man? u honestly have nothing better to do than watch videos on a guy you hate and leave ur stupid fucking comments! Lol u should get out more man, smoke a doobie, relax:P

  • @xluxuryxsparks yeah he is worm food and a fucking LOSER ASS JUNKIE just like amy winehouse heheheheheheheh...worms enjoy hehehehehehheheehheeeeeeee

  • @sylicone221

    Your really a little fucker aren't you! . I bet u think ur fkn halarious.

    Nahh man u got it wrong, yeah he was a junkie but u shouldn't blame or judge, it could just as easily be you, which im sure many Layne staley fans wish it was haha

  • @sylicone221

    Ohhh ok so its not just Layne then, mike too? wow...

    your pathetic, im guessing u have something against all drug users?

    I think i speak for everyone when i say I HOPE YOUR DICK FALLS OFF.FUCK YOU.

  • @xluxuryxsparks all dead druggies hehehee..they are worm food now hehehehhehehehehehee...worms enjoy hehehee......demri as well....worm food

  • @sylicone221

    Your fucking stupid.

    How old are you btw? cuz its pretty pathetic for an old man to dedicate his life to piss ing off the fans of an incredible artist. I think you may need a new job, something a little more time consuming would be wise.

  • @xluxuryxsparks 37 heheheehee.....just like to troll and be funny thats all hehehe....layne was a fucking junkie...and mike was a douche on that show...celebrity rehab hehee

  • @sylicone221

    whats so wrong with being a junkie?, get off ur fkn high horse, Layne fell into addiction and he couldn't find his way out, it is sad its not something to make jokes about, It could happen to anyone, it could happen to you, and it could happen to me. Besides even if he was a junkie, he still made great fkn music, no one can sing like that man. Just because he had a drug problem doesn't make him inferior to anyone, certainly not you .

  • @xluxuryxsparks i know....the only junkie that i really hate is River Phoenix....he was a bad influence on society heeheheheh! just like to troll cuz its fun heheheee

  • @xluxuryxsparks holy shit man i swear almost every alice in chains video i come to on youtube. there you are talking about how there dead and their worm food. ur one of those people in this world that tries to start shit with people and sinse ur too pussy to do it in real life of course why not go to the internet and do it so that u dont get the shit beat out of you. y dont u learn to grow up so u can go fuck the worms and have ur dick fall offf asshole

  • @mrguitarman151 didnt mean for that to go to you i meant it to go to sylicone221

  • @mrguitarman151

    ohh haha okay :)

  • @mrguitarman151

    you have the wrong person, i was actually saying the same thing as you haha , i think you meant to write this to @sylicone221 , read the comments he's the fucking asshole who is the "worm food" guy, not me. FUCK HIM & RIP LAYNE STALEY.

  • I still haven't gotten over it.

  • One of the greatest voices of grunge. RIP Layne, you was great

  • Never again will their be another that even comes close to Layne. And I feel terrible for today's youth. I get AiC, Pantera, Soundgarden, RATM, Primus etc. And they get some goofy kid with buck teeth saying "baby baby baby oooOOoohhh" gees what a kick in the balls this current music is to the younger generation. They deserve better.

  • @WrestlingBC12 actually back then they got NSYNC and the backstreet boys and that generation before that is saying what u are saying, and the pop corporate giants control the mainstream forever

  • Any fat guy with tats can be a VJ i guess.
