This song means so much to me. I feel one with Layne knowing he and I both battle(d) drug addiction. I find solace in his words and voice, You are very missed layne.
I remember when this song came out. Its one of my favorite by AIC. Which is kinda hard to say concidering all there music was great. Seems like yesturday he was playin but I guess it was a dream. Very talented. Amazing song. miss you very much layne staley. Wish you were here.
Those complaining about the crowd, you clearly don't understand the energy of this particular event. It was clear to most at the time that Layne was weak, and they probably wouldn't see him again, at least not as the lead singer for AIC. Not to mention this was a beautiful moment for any fan; it would be impossible to not applaud.
Thank you layne you have inspired me to quit drugs and live life without following misprinted lies. You will be forever missed many by people.you died for us.
I AGREE BOUT THE CROWD,ITS SUCH A RARE OPPERTUNITY TO HEAR MUSIC ARTIST IN THE RAWEST OF FORM,WHICH IS ACOUSTIC. IT SEPERATES REAL FROM THE WANNA BE,S. LAYNE IS JUS A MANY OF FEW REAL ARTIST THAT LEFT WAY TO SOON
He didn't want to do this show. His sister convinced him,and kind of "made him" to do it. I've read many stories about this specific show and almost all of them say,he did a big shot of smack before coming out. Sad,he's really missed.
I'm not a young guy.. not an old guy. I remember first hearing of AIC when I was around 13. To this day everytime I hear this song, it breaks me down a little bit. Not because it's a sad sounding song.. but how outside influences such as drugs/hardship.. can destroy even the most gifted souls. Where ever Layne is.. I hope he knows his life has changed so many people.
The greatest herion addiction song ever written! He sums it up in a few beautifully written lines!!! Don't do herion kids! Everything they tell you about it will eventually happen to you!
April 10th, 1996, a day that will remembered by not only the fans in attendance that evening but by Sean, Scott, Mike, Jerry and Layne. I have this dvd, and cherish it. Wish I could have been there. Fucking brilliant.
jerry cantrell is an amazing guitarist. at 1:48 he spins his pick in his fingers so he can pluck easier. prolly doesn't even notice he is doing it. genius.
Havnt listened to aic much til a friend turned me onto this one. Layne was an amazing talent, an amazing personality, and a one in a lifetime vocalist with his heart, skill, and sound. I just wish someone would have helped him with his heroin addiction so we could see him and the rest of his talented band making these kinds of spine tingling tunes. R.i.p. Mr. Staley.
Risk it all to create something awesome if only for a short time. trading altitude for speed. sell ur time for a shot at true greatness. We are lesser men. RIP
This song makes me tear up everytime I listen to it. It just shreds my heart to pieces. Layne was so lost, just can't understand why someone couldn't have helped him. The world lost a great musician. R.I.P. Layne we miss you!!!!!!!!!!!!
@TheHellboy112 You don't have to watch it. "Alicce" instead of "Alice" will make it harder to have the video removed for copywrite infringement, you idiot.
heard this song for the first time yesterday, although it was the staind cover. now having heard AIC sing it, i realise its the finest performance of a song ive ever heard
i ahd a dream awhile ago and layne lived io saw the band do a tiny concert im like layne i want a hug and he leaves comes back to get his guitar and im like dude give me a hug and he does i say to him thanks for getting clean for us and then i had to wake up and remember it was only a dream
Poor layne.. really i dont understand why everybody likes to cover nutshell of all AIC songs.. i mean im all for covers but really this was probably layne's most personal song
Take me back to this time. When we were young, dumb and immortal. Cassette tapes and boomboxes, playing our favourite tunes. When a dead goldfish was the worst of our worries. It's as if the sun never set a day in the 90's, and at the break of the millenium, it would never rise again.
My only wish at this time is that I wish i could have this song on my ipod without erasing all my other music as my computer is fried... screw it, this is all i need :D
Kind of sucks at the time of Layne's death Left Eye Lopez's death overshadowed his in the mainstream media. But 8 years later people still talk about Layne and as far as Left Eye goes...well.
@sheik718 What should that matter? And there was a REASON Lisa's death was so publicized and it had nothing to do with one person being more important than the other...both tragic! both missed
layne.. this guy can sing 'ohhhh..ohhhhh...' without open mouth... awsome person.. tremendous gift that god gives him.. THE VOICE.. If legends like him.. like Cobain.. still alive.. music will be much better nowadays... today music are bullshit.. mtv is a reality show tv!.. and the music they pass is bad like Jonas Discusting brothers.. kate bubbies perry (sexy lady although xD)... no more music like 90ies..
Personally my favorite AIC song. In my opinion this show along w/ Nirvana's were the best unplugged shows. It's sad how far MTV has fallen. I think that is a reflection of the state of music today, at least commercially.
This song is so beautiful.
