Soundgarden - Beyond the Wheel Live

[SWbro94]

Cornell's voice just piercing through your ears on top of Thayil's monstrous tone! DENSE!

[ShareLove85]

Jesus Christ, what a voice.....

[MrBlonde345]

Chris Cornell > Batman

[J0SlAH]

@MrBlonde345 over batman!?!?!? HOLY SHIT!!!!

[MrBlonde345]

@J0SlAH have you ever seen Batman live in concert? he's terrible!

[J0SlAH]

@MrBlonde345 but robin is such a good triangle player!!

[rammingstone1]

Finally a concert video where he hits his high notes

[brucanthwood]

I CANT TAKE IT! 

[rowstyles]

4 people thought this was a nickelback video

[Andymalcolm1]

Kim Thail is Angus Young of grunge\m/

[Str8OutOfLine]

@Andymalcolm1 stfu kim thayil's songs don't all sound exactly the same like angus'

[Andymalcolm1]

@Str8OutOfLine Both are gods of rock,so YOU shut the fuck up

[bap728]

 his voice makes me wet....

[kajukenbo071]

Perfect.

[pattonPwr]

that voice is from another galaxy.

[TrueIronMaidenFan]

Bruce Dickinson, Geoff Tate, and Chris Cornell are the greatest singers of all time!

[pearljamporch]

4:43 Matt Cameron the best

[zidane456]

listening to this and the 2010version live at the showbox synced up. holy shit insane

[morningeuphoria64]

Chris Cornell Vocals...... Fuck yeah !!! Awesome as always. : )

[philfly66]

Absolutely amazing!!!

[TOM71292]

now chris has mentioned it, Kim Thayil is a spitting image of Jesus, and i guess he is his friend :)

[W78516]

Chris has to get it out of his system by abusing the the mic stand and then after; as calm as ever.

[mattia9537]

Best vocalist ever

[Krehyv]

@mattia9537 yes he is, end o' fukin' story

[Krehyv]

@mattia9537 yes

[dt089]

If this doesnt give you goosebumps, your not a real music fan.

[FlamexRHCP]

this is when the magic happens 2:14

[pete4394]

wow, that crowd looks high as fuck! xD

[punkstrummer101rs]

wow he hasn't even got his beard and moustache yet...............but he still sings like a god!

[AuntieCmoney]

probably his best vocal ever-can't imagine it getting any better. Jaw-dropping...

[dascottx]

Holy shit

[TheDGK8732]

jesusssssssssssss rockkkkkkkkkkkkkksssssssssssss and soundgarden toooooooooooooooooooooooooooo sweeeeettttttttttttttttttttttt­ttttttttttt suckerssssssssssssssssssssssss­ssssssssssssssss

[michael822212]

the beginning of this video terrifies me O_o "JESUS IS MY FRIEND" lol still, a great song and a great performance :D

[MasteroftheCosmos999]

Jesus is his friend man what the fuck? what did Jesus do to you fuckers ever, enough with the hate you fuckbags

[notavailableisnotava]

OMG this crowd fuckin sucks.

[magicnumber7]

@notavailableisnotava

Fuckin Zombies ain't they?

Shame too, i'd have gave anything to see them around 90/91. Chris's voice was at it's best then, still good now but not as good as what it was on the Badmotorfinger album

[jnasay]

@notavailableisnotava I believe this concert was in Germany. I can only imagine that they were in pure shock with those vocals. I know the first time I listened to this my mouth was a fucking flytrap!!

[MegaTronn]

For some reason, 4 idiots disliked this video.

[SoCalDazed]

"Jesus died for somebody's sins, but not mine"

Patti Smith

[ChineseTOP]

sounds stronger here than in 2010 but man this guy can still reach the same notes after 20 years nd sound perfect, soundgarden keeps getting better :D

[dukeon]

The glass on my monitor blew out when he hit one of those high notes :O

[erving25]

Just wikipedia his origins for those bitching about it. But on a serious note this man vocals are fucking awesome! God I wish he could still wail like this or I wish I could...

[magneteye]

@erving25 check out the version of this in 2010 at the showbox... not too bad for an old man!

[KobySGSRV]

Chris Cornell's mother is a Jew, so that means he's a Jew also, as many other great Musicians/Writers/Actors etc.

That doesn't matter at all, but it's kinda funny because of the intro in this video and in some other videos when he screams 'Jesus is my friend and I like him'

FAAAAAAAAAAR BEYOND THA WHEEEEEEEL

Simply the best vocalist ever.

[magneteye]

@KobySGSRV fuck jesus.

[Silvialikesmeat]

@magneteye fuck you.

[magneteye]

@Silvialikesmeat Exactly.

[mattia9537]

His voice is so powerfull!!!!

[RioDeZal]

Good grief a voice

[KobySGSRV]

BEST BAND EVER.

[Nirvaaanaa]

Soundagraden > Pearl Jam :)

[KobySGSRV]

@Nirvaaanaa

DUH ! :)

[dreadedwheat26]

@Nirvaaanaa  of course. you said it dude

[KobySGSRV]

Cornell is Jew by the way... :) jews rocks!

[Chrotisofus]

@KobySGSRV No he isn't and furthermore: does it even matter? No.

[KobySGSRV]

@Chrotisofus

sure it doesnt

it just if he would know that back then he wouldnt sing jesusssss is my frienddddd and i like himmmmmmmm

[janoska667]

uh der

[aa0324]

Bite me dude. If you want to talk about versatility, just compare the works of the two great singers. If you want to see WHO is better, just listen to Hunger Strike. Which singer makes the hairs on the back of your neck stick out like a massive erection? VEDDER!....that's who, that's who!

[rockisntdeadyet]

@aa0324 dude you're soooooo stupid just because you like pearl jam doesnt mean that Vedder its better

come on just listen to the song , VEDDER CANT DO THAT YOU MORON LMFAO

[CuriosityRoads]

@aa0324 Vedder is shit on Cornell's shoes.

[KobySGSRV]

@aa0324

you suck.

oh, and also gay

[ciffi]

With the intro line "jesus is my friend" Cornell is referring to the lyrics of The Doobie Brothers' song "Jesus is just alright". Just so you know.

[aa0324]

Ed Vedder is better...both vocally and as a lyricist/poet.

[keymaker2112]

@aa0324 That's debatable and clearly intended to stir people up...xD

Try harder.

[Metalcohol9]

@aa0324 ...eat shit dude!! i want ur balls smashed for saying that!! Cornell is way more versatile and better than Vedder you fuck!!

[hefra344]

@aa0324 no hes not better vocally im a huge eddie vedder fan but he doesnt have the singing ability that cornell has he couldnt sing this song at all

[dt089]

"Jesus is my friend". Merry Christmas to all!

[Fareeed92]

best vocalist ever.

[blitzkiller3178]

I just want to fuck his vocal chords!

[RaveenX]

@blitzkiller3178 :D

[mistersam92]

jesus is his son

[mateus5678]

@mistersam92 - true!

[SoundgardenPearlJam]

I would sell my soul for chris cornell's voice

[Ragebach]

Chris cornell lo maximo!

[DANNYHEADSHOT]

definitely the best voice ive ever heard

[mrnikko419]

THANK YOU! Have a very happy day. xD

[maicurl123]

Jesus is his friend

[torsrizzo69]

i would give anything to be able to sing like that mother fucker

[hefra345]

@torsrizzo69 i can sing like that



[cooperbaseball17]

[TheDGK8732]

JESUSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS­SS ROCKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK­KKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKSSSSSSSSSS­SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS­SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS­SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS­SSSSSSSSSSSSS YEAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH­HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

[TheDGK8732]

@TheDGK8732 JEJEJEJEJEJ SONDGARDEN ROCKKKKKKKKKKKSSSSSSSSSS

[MissusFingerBottom]

Chris's voice is incredible. He still got it! He's really such a pretty boy when he was younger! Now he's harder, and he's still as hot!

[wilhelmizer]

i've got love for this band

[wichoflea714]

Chris Cornell has got big eggs!!! or how we say here in mexico...CHRIS CORNELL TIENE HUEVOS!! Y ES UNA RIATA!!!! es increible que aún a sus 36 años alcance esas notas tan altas!!! Larga vida a Soundgarden!!!!

[gabrielaloveschris]

@wichoflea714 no tiene 36, tiene 47! :)

[Incubus941]

Amazing how different Chris Cornell looks now. He's still awesome, can't wait to see Soundgarden tour whenever it is. KIM IS A LEGEND!!

[wilhelmizer]

Greatness.

[lanhalamy]

that's jason everman (ex nirvana)

[L2112Lif]

@lanhalamy Ex Nirvana touring crew. He's got an album credit, but didn't actually contribute.

[ericlord821]

@lanhalamy He has a documentary that was released too. He's lived a crazy life. Plus, he's Alaska's own!

[santanaincubus]

fuck the Scream album

[AiCStrange2508]

I realy love his voice in this. Soundgarden with a twist of the 80'es. So great. I can hear this over and over and over again. Love the heavy sound.

[pokerface909]

Hope Chris gets his voice back to THIS for the upcoming tour.

[hefra344]

@pokerface909 impossible hes too old and he smoked too much

[PosFlow]

@hefra344 SOMEone didn't watch/listen to Beyond the Wheel at the Showbox.

[hefra344]

@PosFlow I did but you could hear that he was not as comfortable belting the high notes

[hefra344]

@PosFlow The notes got a lot thinner

[PosFlow]

@hefra344 I know it's not exactly the same, but damn. Still reeeallly close. I'd like to see if he gets even better the next time they perform it.

[hefra344]

@PosFlow yea definitely

[Rapsha100]

Jesus is an imaginary friend

[Rapsha100]

wat a bunch of fuckin garbage

[kingable187]

@Rapsha100 Wat the fuck is wrong with you! This is one of the best bands ever to form

[theaethyr]

this song is so fucking great guitar sound like a bulldozer

[HuevosLibertad]

THE most important band of the Seattle Grunge scene. Period.

[Andragon90]

Dooooooooooom!!!!!

[tomitstube]

kim thayil is fucking awesome.

[Garsound]

I have probably contributed 1000 views to this video. I thought their reunion 2010 one was good (of this song) but watching this it doesn't compare. Chris really had it 20 years ago...

[fattirevsbud]

Just won a ticket for the Private gig after Lolapalooza in CHICAGO ROCK ONNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN

[stbreal]

@fattirevsbud lucky bastard!!!!!

[oblak10]

it is like 30C* in da house and i ve got goose bumps... awesome :D

[Garsound]

4:55 equals CLIMAX

[Coldacre]

effin' incredible

[magneteye]

This is the song on the album the comes between songs 665 and 667. You do the math.

[danspare]

@magneteye 1332?

[magneteye]

@danspare LOL. No, If the song is IN BETWEEN tracks named 665 and 667, then that makes this track 666. ;)

[danspare]

@magneteye i'd never get in MENSA

[magneteye]

@magneteye I bought the album Ultramega OK on cassette back in 1989. Their first album. Beyond the Wheel (666) was on that album.

[gothnickify]

You can't really hear the crowd because for one their yelling was edited for this video and also many of them are in a really dark hypnotic transe; remeber that the Berlin wall had just fallen so this type of music is really new to a lot of these people and it just blew their minds to where they fell inlove with it. Just because they do not mosh as much does not mean that they did not like. I know that they loved it. Never the less Soundgarden KICKS SOO MUCH ASSS.

[accepthisname]

I've contributed to at least half of the views to this video. Can never get enough.

[MollyOlly94]

Of course Jesus is his friend, how else could he get those angelic pipes? :)

[cgnetwork1]

the crowd isn't yelling because they're guilty and jealous that he can wail so much highter/bettter than all of them :P

[microlab85]

wow!

amazing voice!... Cornell rules!

[turtle650hmb]

If I was Jesus Chris Cornell would be my friend.

[boggie91]

@turtle650hmb yep, Jesus is lucky....

[foltrap6]

Jesus IS his friend.

[dr05guitar]

i can only sit here and laugh at how ridiculously high he can sing! it's incredible

[jabre12]

the crowd is fucking sleeping

[shwilly]

Hehe, I slightly prefer Times of Trouble over Footsteps

That doesn't mean I'm a bigger Soundgarden fan or anything. I'd say Pearl Jam is equally high on my awesome list...

[SoundgardenLIve]

The channel SoundgardenLIve has the [complete] live show from April 16, 1990 at Philipshalle AND Newly uploaded in 480p.

[ProseCombats]

@SoundgardenLIve its too choppy

[venusasaboy1991]

I'm 19. It hurts me inside that I wasn't around for this. Born in the mlate 70's.. teen in the 90's.. wouldve been perfection

[DavidKinner]

@venusasaboy1991 Ay Soundgarden is back and Cornell has proved that he can still scream the same

[DavidKinner]

@venusasaboy1991 Ay Soundgarden is back and Cornell has proved that he can still scream the same

[morphinlounge101]

@DavidKinner

so true, especially if you consider, vocal chords of hardcore vocalists don't age well. Chris has proven at the Showbox he still can nail everything.

We have waited for a long time, but 2010 is the dawning of true music again.

[Hugolastra]

nuevesito el vocerron de cornell!

ya quiero a ver al nuevo soundgarden reunido a ver que pedo :P

[pezon48]

jesus is my friend HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA­HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA­HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAAHAHAHAHAHA­HAHHAHAAHHAHAAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH­AHA

remember he loves you but, hell is waiting for you.....

[madmagikk]

and now for something completely different... to comment this video again... the man is fucking drunk, he´s fuckin mad... the man had a concert lined up and his best friend just died... the perfect conditions to pull everything out off cornell´s mind... you will not see something as pure as this for a long time.

[bettergameplay]

Fucking Epic

[khetmoria]

in this video chris seems like eddie vedder :)

[Moxired69]

to bad chris kicks the shit outa vedder

[codebabe]

As a singer hell yeah, as songwriters and frontmen they're pretty even steven. Vedder is just as great of a lyricist and songwriter. Chris is without a doubt the better vocalist though.

[venusasaboy1991]

@codebabe

Be that as it may - Times of Trouble (TOTD) > Footsteps (PJ). I think thats the best comparison point as they're the same song instrumentally.

[Badfish228]

nope. Footsteps > ToT

[venusasaboy1991]

@Badfish228

Ooooo. Controversial :P

[Badfish228]

@venusasaboy1991 FOOTSTEPS IS BETTER!!! RAAAAAWR! >_>

[codebabe]

Vedder got alot of his influence from Cornell. Close buddies as well :)

[reptameuck]

when i hear it i always do faces ... the voice is too amazing...

[TheNovanCritics]

I know man! It blows my mind!

[lmedinas]

Amazing voice

[hoyxd]

3.36,is that eddie vedder at the right?

[rutger5000]

@hoyxd Possibly. From what I heard the entire Seatle gurge movement knew each other.

[codebabe]

they did thats true. even pearl jam and nirvana were actually decent aquatances. Kurt just didnt like their music, but he liked them as people. theres an interview of it on here somewhere.

[hzsymbiote]

nope

[Throatjab]

if it's the guy i'm thinking, his hair is too short to be eddie in 1990.

[Audioslave3]

@hoyxd No way!

[gregcano]

Best band ever!

[salmon020]

gotta love how kim ends the show

[BlackRainZero]
