  • The guitar tabs of metallica and bass tabs are way harder than alice in chains and Nirvana ...... Therefore some people prefer Metallica... I like these 3 bands along with many others equally because each one of them has their own style

  • I love Eminem, Fozzy, Crazy Town, ALice In Chains, Nirvana, and Mother Love Bone so my music range is weird

  • @FinSituation It's o.k., so is mine. Check out my page and you'll see that. I have aaaaall kins of shit on there.

  • what was up with that peel out in the beginning? hahahahahaha

  • Alice in Chains is the closest grunge ever got to metal! You simply can't deny Cantrell's riffs, or the heaviness of their music as a whole. And can I get a goddamn at that immaculate fucking vocal harmony! RIP Layne! Long live AIC!

  • AIC and Soundgarden worthy of true METAL STATUS and Screaming Trees of ZEP influenced greatness but the rest of u FUCKIN GRUNGE FUCKERS JOG ON!!!!!!!

  • either this is the only version ive heard of this song or im so baked im not hearing the difference.

  • @ScoobyDewbieDoo also: FUCK YEAH!!!! i love this song \m/

  • love this so much it hurts.... love this video version better...

  • where is The "LEGEND" Button?

  • I really thank you fot this video friend!

  • wow layne now mike  come on man WTF

  • just another heroin addict that got himself killed. and changed the music world.

  • Dead or alive, Layne is untouchable...Into the flood again...

  • This song takes me back to my robotripping days

  • La mejor banda de rock de los 90. LEJOS.

  • I do remember this and it is still beautifull. Wel done AIC! I didn't see Layne ever sing a song correct by the musicvideos they made, He just sings the song. His way. And allthough I own the new record of AIC without Layne it will nerver hit my nerves again. Only Layne could do that, and he is no longer with us. The great thing about youtube is that he has come to life for a whole new generation. And the Smashing Pumpkins did not form in 1979. It's just a song.....

  • @22amburgey I donno where your gettin your facts but just cuz Smashing Pumpkins has the song "1979" doesn't mean thats when they formed. They began in '87-'88 and their first album, Gish, was in '91. Billy Corgan was born in 1967, I dont think he was playin shows at 12. Bush formed in '92 as did 7M3 and STP released "Core" the same year. AIC Preceded all these with "facelift" in '90; Soundgarden, Nirvana, and Pearl Jam also all came year(s) earlier than your examples (except zeppelin).

  • Alisa u lancima...

  • So :Đ

    Christensen is a looser playing Anakin S.

  • Haha, Layne looks like Anakin Skywalker in this video. Now we all know where that look came from.

  • RIP Layne \m/

  • Layne is GOD!!:D

  • @rockerduff that makes no sense! So any band that comes from Seattle is grunge? No.

    The distortion of the guitar and the lyrics full of anxiety , fear, and depression put the music in the grunge genre. May have been originated by Seattle musicians but there are other bands classified as grunge from other geographical locations. Ya know, such as "Hole"? Courtney Love's grunge band from California. Know it all.

  • ALL HAIL THE DREADLOCK MULLET

  • @mrludjama mama llama or whatever your name is. Don't get hostile towards people when you're wrong. Grunge aka Seattle sound is the genre that AIC, Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Soundgarden, The Melvins, and a handful of other bands are in. Not because of geographics but because of the sound and lyric structure. Cunt

  • @Fifty50Dollars You are wrong. Seattle is associated with giving birth to grunge, but grunge is a term used to describe the attitude of a rebellious generation X...the lyrics in their songs were similar in theme, but the music between each and every band that came out of Seattle was drastically different from one another.

  • @rockerduff1231 Well you're right Seattle did have a big part to do with the grunge scene but lets start with Led Zeppelin some consider the first grunge band theyre from england came out in 1968...then you got Smashing Pumpkins from Chicago formed 1979...then theres Bush-London, England...7M3, Williamsburg, VA......and Finally you have Stone Temple Pilots, San Diego, CA....If you dont consider those grunge you need to consider a change in music.

  • @22amburgey Grunge? Listen, Led Zeppelin is anything but grunge. And...ah...you know what...your sentence is so lame and retarded that I'm not even going to bother.

  • @rockerduff1231 I bet you're annoying to be around. I could run circles around you in sentence structure, and thats completely aside from the fact that I proved you nearly entirely wrong. I've got friends like you, annoying know it all, thinks they're so far beyond eveyone else because you learned how to play enter sandman on guitar. Well hate to tell ya its not that hard!! you're not that special!! and you probably should be gay because girls arent into your selfish ways!!....just the truth...

  • @rockerduff1231 dumbass go listen to Led Zeppelin not to mention they influence Soundgarden, AIC, and Pearl Jam...They were rock and not grunge but people consider them to be grunge at its earliest age...I bet you could fuck up a wet dream.

  • @22amburgey That's alright man. I don't feel comfortable having a conversation with people who are very clearly mentally retarded.

  • @22amburgey lol. what are you a fukin retard? led zeppelin was not grunge! :P

  • @vg7211 You must be the retard I said they were considered the first grunge band...theyre not in that genre but their sound influnence many grunge bands.

  • @22amburgey you fukin dweep. led zeppelin was formed in 1968 and grunge was formed in the mid 1980's. read up before you speak kid. face the facts. you know nothing about grunge. so instead of getting insulted, its better to read up. and then talk. capiche'?

  • @vg7211 Hey fuck stick I said that they werent in that genre but considered to be the influnence of the genre and not to mention smashing pumkins came out in 79 damb youre just a fucking retard please dont reply i have no time for you.

  • @22amburgey dude, you can use the word fuck as much as you want, but you cant ignore the fact that you know shit. its not only m your arguing with. its more people. so fuck off.

  • @vg7211 I have no idea how you can figure I know shit when you have obviously retreated from the arguement...

  • @22amburgey hahaha. dude bring it. bitch. prove to the world how lame you are and how little you know about music and how you love to tell people that. go on call led zepp grunge. why dont you call beiber psychedelic while you are at it pussy?

  • @22amburgey dude why are you arguing on youtube...? it gets you nowhere.

  • stupid fuckers..Nirvana and AIC are two bands that are not even in the same music genre! punk rock and metal.

    how to compare those two..

    cunts.

  • @MirLjudima actually they where both considered grunge and they are both from the Seattle rock scene thats how people do it but hey they are both great bands and kurt and layne was two of the greatest singers/musicians every

  • @lonelywolf04 grunge was geographic term.

  • @MirLjudima that's what i'm sayin...grunge isn't a genre of music, it's an attitude and a style of clothing

  • i love this band even better than Nirvana, just listen to the lyrics and you'll see

  • @Backspacer12 nirvana was overrated compared to A.I.C

  • @arkhampatient76 Omg! Finally someone who agrees!!!

  • @arkhampatient76 Hey its all Seattle rock in the late 80's early 90's. They both kick ass and have different eclectic sounds. I personally prefer Alice in Chains, however Nirvana is not overrated, Metallica is overrated, new Metallica for that matter.

  • MIEK STARRRRRRRRR

  • RIP MIKE

  • R.I.P Mike.... 

  • @NonaInChains he died

  • @raulraulrauleloco Maybe...nobody who calls themselves a real AIC fan cares about that stupid ass crap. Personally, I'm too busy air guitaring and letting my hair fly to give a damn...AIC 4 life, RIP Layne!

  • Staley the best singer of grunge rock the world

  • I love the intro with the car burning rubber, what a badass way to start off some AIC!!

  • very good!

  • Alice In Chains won two Golden God Awards and Album of the year 2010 for their new Album (cd) Black Gives Way To Blue.

  • I have this version on VHS. God, such a blast from the past!

  • Did Alice in chains ever win a grammy or an award?

  • Layne's voice was so fucking powerful on Facelift, no one will ever compare

  • 28 people think abba is the epitome of rock and roll

  • @MaximusRelaximus not really, they probably are just pissed that the video got cut off at the end.

  • Layne had the coolest dreads ever

  • Read the description. I didn't make the video nor did I edit it. I got this a long, long time ago.

  • @zarconan this is the original version for sure. I have the album and listened to the black and white video version. They cut half the solo in the black and white version which got me all pumped for nothing.

  • Why did you cut off the song?????

  • I liked Laynes dreads, they were very cool and grunge.

  • this band along with pearl jam and nirvana dug the grave for bands like warrant and winger and shoved them in.

  • @MetricHotrodsdotcom

    Everytime I see or hear winger it reminds me of Beavis and Butthead.

  • @MetricHotrodsdotcom

    yeah but alice in chains are actually good

  • @MetricHotrodsdotcom

    yes but alice in chains are actually good

  • @MetricHotrodsdotcom Winger sucked anyway.

  • BEST BAND BEST VOCALIST 100% TRUE

  • their best song imo

  • pure awesomeness!!!

  • Does anyone know if it is true that Layne hated this song? If so, why?

  • @cmonabear

    Yes

    Because it was about her......

  • @hightdan Oh, that does make sense to me now. Thanks for the information.

  • @cmonabear he hated it because they had to redo it 14 times before they got it right while recording. And then had to make 2 videos.

  • @lizbabe28 Oh, yes. I do seem to remember hearing something about the 2 videos. Thanks for responding libabe28!

  • This is why I don't watch videos posted by VEVO FUCK VEVO!!

  • I worked on this video shoot as a PA.

  • incredible song and vid...The 100% rock spirit of these guys gives me goosebumps. Go AIC!

  • MTV cut it short because the length of the song can cost more depending on the air time. I don't see why trim it though MTV makes a shitload of money, so why not use a little more come on.

  • @RamonesSkater4life Because at first MTV stood for Music Television. Over the years the M started to stand for Money not Music; and 15 years down the line we have MTV as it is today - a complete joke, lacking of any real musicical content. But oh well, guess they are getting paid huh? Cunts.

  • @hermionelovesme yes m tv is trash tv they should remove the m it means nothing un less they call it meanless tv they think 16 and pregnet is cool now 16 year old kids can get on tv all you got to do is have have a baby and you can get on meanless tv they are so despret the have hit rock bottom living off the bottom of the trash heap sucking up the swill they were dead to me long ago rember the first video killed the raido star someone should write a song meanless tv killed the video star

  • @simplemindbelive A friend, well x friend of mine had two daughters. The older one left home before she was l8 and lived on the street for about a year. She got pregnant went back home and to school. When her friends at school learned of this, about 7 of them copied her and had babies of their own. They just wanted the attention that she was getting. This is so wrong. But that is not why this person is a x friend of mine. Other reasons.

  • @simplemindbelive I usually give people a few chances, if I feel there is a reason why behind something, but the if the chances get used up. Thats it for them.

  • @ILOVESHIT1000 im sorry i dont realy know what u mean. i just meant that of all the rock n roll people that died during my youth Laynes death sadened me the most . I always loved AIC and still do.

  • Cantrell's solo really is a piece of work in this song, it sucks they cut it short.

  • Why does it cut off at the end? Booo, I want more!

  • of all the dead rock legends I MISS LAYNE THE MOST

  • lol watch the video of layne and sean in guam it shows what they think of them having to do a new video after this.

  • hey look its the best band in the world

  • Appreciate the music! Not what the selfishness and addiction did! Great Band but even hearing interviews of remaining members of bands like AIC and Nirvana will tell you....what could have been! If the selfish MOFO AXL could get his sh*t together that would be the greatest come back since Coverdale/Paige Ha!

  • layne staley is the fuckin man

  • LAYNE BEFORE THE ADDICTION AND PAIN AND DECAY REALLY HIT HARD....WHAT A LOST BEAUTIFUL SOUL....IM AM SO GRATEFUL TO HAVE BEEN APART OF THIS GENERATION OF MUSIC AND THAT SOME YOUNG ONES ARE BEING INSPIRED AS WELL...LETS ALL PASS LAYNES BEAUTY AND INSPIRATION ON TO ALL.....

  • This is the shit

  • i LOVE this version better!

  • Layne looks so much healthier during this time. It was sad watching this legend slowly being consumed by substance abuse. That voice of his will always be remembered. RIP

  • @harold282 I think he must have felt the same about being totally, utterly consumed by drug addiction..... He's lyrics to the 'Mad Season' song, "Wake Up" pretty much says it all... sadly.

    "...For little peace from God you plead, and beg..."

  • This is just THE Grunge !

    

  • This song is SEXY!!

  • srsly, 26 dislikes...how do you not like this song

  • @AndyHs77 I dislike how they cut pieces out of this song for this video

  • @clayto1332 yeah true to that, but i wonder how many people go "ewww this song is groady...dislike"

  • My top favorite 90's bands would be

    1-Alice in chains

    2-Stone temple pilots

    3-pearl jam

    I very much dislike nirvana..

  • @worldskater31 How can you possibly dislike Nirvana, there better and more succsesful than all three of those bands. STP and Pearl Jam arnt even good.

  • @bigabg96 because thats my opinion. i dont like their music. i like alice in chains charisma and lyrics much better. Nirvana is overrated and more piped up then what they really are. it just seems like they are for stupid drug heads. i know layne staley and stp and pearl jam used drugs but nirvana seems like their lyrics are so stupid.

  • @worldskater31 I know its your opinion but i think thats hard to belive, and i never even said anything bad about Alice in Chains, there a great band. And btw Layne Staley was way more of a junkie than Kurt Cobain ever was.

  • @bigabg96 yea i know. its just that i know way too many little kids that try to be cool by wearing nirvana shirts that dont know anything about what they are about and only heard half their songs. id rather not jump onto the bandwagon

  • @worldskater31 I agree alot of kids at my school are like that, wear Nirvana shirts and know noothing about them. Kinda pisses me of. But im not one of those kids, I have all there cds and know almost if not all there songs. If you dont like Nirvana, thats ok, it your opinion and i respect that. But could you please tell me why you dont like them.

  • @bigabg96 yeah man. listening to the music is only half of it. Knowing what the people went through and how it made them who they are makes listing to their music and the message in it a powerful experience everytime you push replace. well said.

  • @bigabg96 dude STP has it's songs, but Pearl Jam is SO overrated , it's boring. AIC and Nirvana respected eachother, and they're all saying nirvana was to popular, which kurt cobain despised , so Layne probably wouldn't like his face on MTV being interviewed and bothered , I hate MTV they make everything so superficial

  • @mrcartmanis18 Yeah, STP has a few good song like Still Remains and Plush, and i do agree PJ is very overatted. But out of those 4 bands Nirvana and AIC are the best by far.

  • @bigabg96 dont remember half the man i use to be or um it has other name idr but ya nirvana and AIC are the 2 for runners the gods of that era

  • thye should have done this unplugged

  • isnt this the original version?

  • @tylerjaydavis YEEES...best rock/pop band of all time..Jerry Cantrell best blues/rock producer of all time...rip Layne..

  • Wow Layne looks so sexy in this video! Well he always did no matter what! But dam I'm loving the hair!

  • Coming soon!!!

  • i love his hair

  • great great band!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • GRUNGE ORGASM!!!

  • so much hair in this video...:P

  • Double fuck me running, right where the killerest lead ends the song ends

  • Alice in Chains and Tool are the best bands of the 90's no question

  • @mfic6625 yeah i had to agree but dont forget blind melon

  • 3:18 - 3:32 = sex in music form

  • @unnecessaryNoisex u mean the solo ya its pretty beast add and subscribe to us

  • What year, make and model is that car?

  • the best band of the 90 period

  • AIC is my fav band and always will be a part of my life

  • LOL Layne and the crew absolutely HATED this music video.

  • absolute classic!

  • God damn heroin took away one of the godliest rockers of all time.

    RIP Layne Staley.

  • I totally get where this song is coming from, Whenever I am in a self pitying state of mind, I listen to this song and I realize that you can't spend life dwelling on the past, and you can't let anyone drag you down either. " I live tomorrow, you I'll not follow, as you wallow in a sea of sorrow" Powerful lyrics and song.

  • AiC is metal, Soundgarden more hard rock and Nirvana punk rock.

    Grunge is nothing except the shit around my toilet rim.

  • @ImperatorDerGalaxis WELL SAID!!!!!!!!

  • I first heard this when I got Music Bank... this version I think is much better than the Facelift version IMO. Less polished sounding, which isn't always better but is for this song.

  • The girl with Layne is Demri?

  • Alice in Chains is by-far (in my opinion) the best band ever.

  • @terrylawson666

    soooooooo true....best band ever

  • Layne 4 life!!! fuck off haters

  • This is beautiful. All of it.

    Layne, Jerry. :)

    Simply... beautiful! <3

  • Me and my buddy Benji are such grungeheads.

  • There's no doubt that AiC and Nirvana are two of the greatest bands to ever exist, but I personally think that Aic blows Nirvana out of the water any day.

  • @zachw1014 YES!

  • he has an amazing voice

  • Ya know... I prefer AIC over Nirvana too but I don't sit here and bash on Kurt @ Co. They're two totally different kind of bands. Having spent all of my 49 years here in Seattle, I'm just proud both bands came from this area. There's no denying that both Facelift and Nevermind have their places regarding incredible rock albums.

  • These dudes were rock/metal/bluesy before grunge was ever heard of, unfortunatly they just got caught under the same title. Kurt couldnt sing or play for shit but these dudes know whats happening. And fuck you to the record company for chopping it and editing it from the original

  • I think every grunge band had their own style but with all due respect, AIC mastered different types of genres from heavy metal to blues. Even their stuff from the box set are awesome. Has anyone heard Died or What the Hell Have I? Those are some of the sickest guitar riffs i've ever heard Jerry play.

  • @wild1033 i agree died and what the hel have i are the best songs by them (in my opinion)

  • @guitarkid12341 I have to disagree, with all due respect. I think this and Dirt are their best songs. What the Hell Have I is great. but not the best

  • MA è INTERROTTA  -.-

  • wow AIC made my day

  • I like this version of the video more than the other one to be honest.

  • i think it sounds perfectly fine..if you play it loud :P mike starr looked pretty damn good here

  • @123aliceinchains123 u can suck on my hard cock

  • ur mum can suck mine oooh wait she is now

  • take your STUPIS ASS "comments"-and i use the word lightly-someplace else.we're true fans of an amazingly irreplaceable band who mourn the loss of one hell of a talented,beautiful man & come HERE to do it...not read childish bullshit like u wrote.oh,just my humble opinion,mind you...LTS soul sister.

  • These guys are pure rockers, a lot better than "Shitvana"

  • @BioLeatherface I think its a bad idea for you too write your opinions about other bands on here, or are you looking for an arguement?

  • @BioLeatherface Wow, really. Shitvana? Damnit Nirvana was and still is pure grunge. So are these boys they just play different. It is all still grunge.

  • @pfoltz10 Jerry Cantrell calls AIC heavy metal. I can't stand Nirvana personally. AIC outclasses them in every way. Musicianship, writing, vocals, complexity of the songs. But I'm not telling you not to like Nirvana.

  • @pfoltz10 alice in chains is hard rock/metal with a touch of grunge.

  • @glynnracing79 no, overall, it's simply grunge.

  • @BioLeatherface i totlally agree.nirvana sucks.

  • i like this one better, it has more than just the band at different angels playing straight on, like the other. layne's hair is funny but neat looking. kind of akward. either way, i wish BOTH videos didn't cut the solo -_-

  • lol AIC hated this vid.

  • This band is the love of my life...their charisma give me the energy that makes me develope a strenght to find a plan to help all kids, who need supports from adults.
