Kurt and I weren't the closest of friends, but I knew him well enough to be devastated by his death. For such a quiet person, he was so excited about having a child.
I saw all the suffering that Kurt Cobain went through. I didn't know him real well, but I just saw this real vibrant person turn into a real shy, timid, withdrawn, introverted person who could hardly get a hello out.
Everytime i am some where and i hear Layne voice singing it always makes me think how much i miss him and how talented he was and it is sad because i hope for his sake he knew how highly people thought of him........We still love you Layne RIP.
This performance still gives me a tear when I think of how high they were, and the end was so close, the low would follow and dig a tench so deep we still can't dig our way out. Man the talent lost is still tragic! .R.I.P.
i read that too but he walk out of his life around 7 or 8 years old. I don't know but, i did read an article about this so i guess we will never know!!!!!!!!!!!!Still thinking of you Layne
I heard that this song is about when Layne's father use to sit him on a chair when he didn't listen to his father..............Does anyone know if that's true!!!!!!!!!!!!! RIP Layne i still love you and i know that your in peace...................
@13demarie This song is about his heroin addiction... i don't know whether what you were told is true or not because his father walked out on him at a young age and didn't see him till he was alot older.
I remember when I first started listening to Alice in Chains back around 2008 (my years in middle school), starting mostly with "Unplugged". In this, it was quite refreshing to see the lead singer play guitar-- even if he was visibly weak and stuff, you can really see/hear how he tried his best, with both the guitar-playing & singing. ^^
watching a band unplugged is the only way i judge a band worth listening to anymore. tool is the only band left from my childhood that is still active and would pay to see. pearl jam, stp, nirvana, AiC,soundgarden, RatM, and a few others are amazing. i know pearl jam still plays concerts but they lost my respect. i would much rather see them in the 90's.
every unplugged song they did that night and given Layne's health and addiction at that point, gives me chills how they nailed every song and gave them their each lil twist with some songs...R.I.P L.S., forever missed and one of the best vocalist of all time will never be forgotten from generation to generation..my 5 yr old loves them too! :)
Alice in Chains is the best! I never heard a band with such sensitivity. Layne left his mark on all who lived through the grunge decade. How could he put into words and music so much suffering? I never stopped listening.
I crying when I see how magnificent was MTV in the 90'es, sometimes I wish only becouse of that to be 10-12 years older too see live such fucking bands like AIC Pearl Jam, Nirvana, RHCP, RATM and many many others
It's funny to read all the comments on who was what and who was better then who...plain fact, they all rocked our faces off and we wish they could be here today like in 1992...
@lakerman89 early stp was grunge but were missing the most talented singer and songwriter Chris Cornell in soundgarden. (warning dont listen to chris cornell newer shit.)
@lakerman89 Nirvana is hardcore punk, Pearl Jam and STP are rock, Soundgarden is alternative metal, like AiC grunge doesn't exist, it's a commercial term used by the media to label a bunch of bands from seattle
@csmzcs it was on Seattle newpaper site where it shows old interviews, i cant remember where now as it was ages ago when i came across it, but i copied it on to my com what he said.... its alway where i found the whole part of what Layne sais about Kurts death..
@bloodtearsej I think it's funny how I'm pretty sure Metallica and Nirvana have some small rivalry (or maybe metallica just payed them out once or twice, dont know) and Nirvana have rivalry with Guns N Roses, Guns n Roses have rivalry with Metallica who also have rivalry with Alice in Chains... haha.
I hate the fate.. ive been told i cant like Nirvana and Alice In chains.. I have to like one and not the other. HELL. I love Kurt.. Love Layne. Nirvana , Alice In Chains just the same, no more no less.their talent is just the same in different beautiful ways. miss them both deeply. If you like Alice In Chains and not Nirvana or Nirvana and not Alice In Chains, then thats your right to, dont slate another person because they like a band you dont.just go on in your own way and enjoy the music.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY LAYNE! YOU WOULD HAVE BEEN 45 TODAY! WE MISS AND LOVE YOU... WONDER WHY HE IS LOOKING DOWN THE WHOLE TIME AND NOT REALLY LOOKING UP MUCH?
all these people our fucking lucky that when they grew up stuff like this was on MTV. now all it is jersey shore and reality shit. i really hate this generation for being so fucking ignorant
I dont understand why people have to keep saying bad things about Kurt/Nirvana. Both AIC and Nirvana were hardworking bands that didn't sell out and played music that they took pride in, Kurt helped smaller unrecognized bands get discovered. Why people have to talk bad about somebody because they wern't the best at something is beyond me. Layne even said that he was devistated by Kurts death.
@reinforcedpenisstem id have to say the weakest song on dirt was either damn that river or that one that isnt even a song its called like dream sequece or somthing ( thats what it says on my cd).....but thats just my opinion
@yoyojumpy yeah thats it but for some reason it says that on itunes and somthing else when i put the accual cd in the computer.. i would have rather what the hell have i to be on dirt than that or damn that river...
Let's kill the remaining members of AIC and then kill ourselves. We'll have a sick fucking concert in the afterlife. That would be better than missing Layne and Mike.

It seems to me, most if not all...Great Legendary, Influential Rock musicians were on drugs or on a specific drug in their off-time, which ideally help them to create or mould their music OR used the drug as a kind of barrier to the truth .The only problem I see with this is it always seems to be chemical/ man-made drugs. The honest and hard cold fact with those type of drugs are either you quit and be depressed forever or use them be in a euphoric state all the time and wait for the inevitable.
Kurt Cobain had little talent..Oh no, even better NIRVANA had little talent?? Dude, its not all about how many freakin notes u can play per second, its about WRITING music that has an ability to touch people, to move people, and its undeniable that both Nirvana AND AIC had those qualities. Kurt is one of the most important and talented songwriters to come along in the entire 20th century
@dnabb28 dude get out of here with the kurt bullshit. I liked nirvana when I was 11 years old. He's really simple punk with some poppy ass melodies. This is a badass heavy metal band. Jerry cantrell will shit on kurt's playing. and as for layne's vox versus kurts well....... if you can't tell who's better you need to grow ears.
@dnabb28 i am so sick of seeing you people put nirvana in the same catergory as aic its a joke just like nirvana was ! im srry but not 1 of thier songs made me feel 1 way or another there where many bands far more talented......now aic on the other hand was the best of all time layne was one of a kind...like an angel on earth..i listen to them daily and have for 20 years now and it never gets old and they are the ONLY band i can say that about
22 people are fucking retarded!!!! You have to be a complete douche bag to not like Alice in Chains. Quite frankly there is not one band past or present that can compare to how awesome AIC was and still is.
Alice In Chains is one of my favorite bands, behind Nirvana of course. I just really love their music. Layne and Jerry have both made a huge impact on me.
And as a fledgeling acoustic artist myself, I would really appreciate if you could just take a few minutes out of your day to watch an original or two of mine. And hey, if you like it, feel free to subscribe. Maybe you will hear the Layne influence? Thanks.
@JuggaloFaygoDrinker I am not saying Nirvana was a bad band, I own all of their CD's.. but I can only find a few really good songs. I believe Nirvana is overrated, mostly because of Kurt's suicide. But Alice in Chains.. I mean damn.. you can make a fully packed greatest hits album out of these guys. Nearly every song these guys put out back then was epic. Layne was a god among men, his voice unmatched, now and forever more.
@JuggaloFaygoDrinker Nirvana's music is nothing but a bunch of power cords on the guitar. Staley has more talent in his dead finger than Kurt Cobain ever had. No offense just speaking truth as a musician myself. Love both bands but the difference speaks for itself throught the music. AIC has talent you just can't teach and Nirvana was a simple band from Seattle.
@JuggaloFaygoDrinker Again power cords man. I have all Nirvana albums as well as all AIC albums as I grew up in that era. It goes without saying when campared Nirvana had little talent and made it sound good.
@MrJakethetruth You obviously have no idea what your talking about. Just because they didn't have the most complex riffs and the fastest solos doesn't mean they have little talent. They made music that sounds good, and if they had little talent, i'd love to see you accomplish half of what they did.
Perfectly in-tune? How bout not even remotely in-tune. Shitty, shitty "musician". I'm glad Grohl came in and turned them into a band that was bearable to listen to.
He's a legend because that's what the news and magazines told you to think. If you took a person who lived in a cave their whole life, and let them listen to "pre-Dave" Nirvana, they'd tell you the music completely sucked hairy man-ass. You are a product of the entertainment industry propaganda machine. Grats!

Kurt Cobain had little talent..Oh no, even better NIRVANA had little talent?? Dude, its not all about how many freakin notes u can play per second, its about WRITING music that has an ability to touch people, to move people, and its undeniable that both Nirvana AND AIC had those qualities. Kurt is one of the most important and talented songwriters to come along in the entire 20th century

@dnabb28 dude get out of here with the kurt bullshit. I liked nirvana when I was 11 years old. He's really simple punk with some poppy ass melodies. This is a badass heavy metal band. Jerry cantrell will shit on kurt's playing. and as for layne's vox versus kurts well....... if you can't tell who's better you need to grow ears.

@sniperkneupper you realize that most likely jerry and kurt were really good friends
darkage117 6 months ago
@darkage117 that has nothing to do with what I said. I mean jerry's ability to play the guitar is FAR greater than kurt's.
sniperkneupper 6 months ago
@sniperkneupper The reason for that is that Kurt learned a few songs then started writing his own music, Jerry took lessons.

22 people are fucking retarded!!!! You have to be a complete douche bag to not like Alice in Chains. Quite frankly there is not one band past or present that can compare to how awesome AIC was and still is.

Alice In Chains is one of my favorite bands, behind Nirvana of course. I just really love their music. Layne and Jerry have both made a huge impact on me.
And as a fledgeling acoustic artist myself, I would really appreciate if you could just take a few minutes out of your day to watch an original or two of mine. And hey, if you like it, feel free to subscribe. Maybe you will hear the Layne influence? Thanks.

Well, that is just your opinion. But in my mind, Nirvana is above Alice In Chains. I still love AIC though.

@JuggaloFaygoDrinker I am not saying Nirvana was a bad band, I own all of their CD's.. but I can only find a few really good songs. I believe Nirvana is overrated, mostly because of Kurt's suicide. But Alice in Chains.. I mean damn.. you can make a fully packed greatest hits album out of these guys. Nearly every song these guys put out back then was epic. Layne was a god among men, his voice unmatched, now and forever more.

I don't know, I just dig the Nirvana sound a little more. This is mainly because it was more experimental, and I admire that.
JuggaloFaygoDrinker 8 months ago
@JuggaloFaygoDrinker Nirvana's music is nothing but a bunch of power cords on the guitar. Staley has more talent in his dead finger than Kurt Cobain ever had. No offense just speaking truth as a musician myself. Love both bands but the difference speaks for itself throught the music. AIC has talent you just can't teach and Nirvana was a simple band from Seattle.

Kurt had plenty of talent. I don't know what you are talking about. Listen to In Utero.
JuggaloFaygoDrinker 8 months ago 2
@JuggaloFaygoDrinker Again power cords man. I have all Nirvana albums as well as all AIC albums as I grew up in that era. It goes without saying when campared Nirvana had little talent and made it sound good.
MrJakethetruth 8 months ago
@MrJakethetruth You obviously have no idea what your talking about. Just because they didn't have the most complex riffs and the fastest solos doesn't mean they have little talent. They made music that sounds good, and if they had little talent, i'd love to see you accomplish half of what they did.

Perfectly in-tune? How bout not even remotely in-tune. Shitty, shitty "musician". I'm glad Grohl came in and turned them into a band that was bearable to listen to.

@twistedcross - Finally man, Nirvana I think was one of the lesser talents on the Grunge Scene, Kurt just drew attention with his lost boy look.

He's a legend because that's what the news and magazines told you to think. If you took a person who lived in a cave their whole life, and let them listen to "pre-Dave" Nirvana, they'd tell you the music completely sucked hairy man-ass. You are a product of the entertainment industry propaganda machine. Grats!
