Chris Cornell "Black Hole Sun" (rare acoustic)

[nauticalcross]

x1075 vegas represent

[TheSleepytime1234]

How come some guitars look and sound like shit, but they cost hundreds of dollars?

[2High2Die738]

and Staley of course.



[JaCkMiChEaLs0n]

hey its sinasl1

[elnobruu]

No one sings like you anymore <3

[95AnnieAnnie95]

what a douchebag; he clapped before the song ended

[bunnam]

who the hell disliked this? seriously

[0guitarraExtrema0]

יש לי חרא

[addylebach]

Yeah Layne got an amazing voice too

[krqliczek]

Fuck you people. All of them are great and nobody will argue that who is better. Layne, Chris and other vocalists were singing from heart and all what is sung from it is uncomparable and awesome.

[simo99911]

great !

[kelseylaneee]

10 people can sit on a donkey dick

[lea0060]

A voice unleashed = Chris Cornell live

[ThatThereBand]

sounds so much better like this :D

[bucktheusa]

Props to the camera guy for actually getting some guitar chords in there.

So tired of videos that cut away right when the solo comes up or shoot five minutes of ass necks and groupshots.

This one goes on my list to cover. After Fell on Black Days and The Day I Tried to Live.

[paulolazar]

gsgsshshgs

[albundy499]

haha I would love to hear Staley try Ave Maria... let's not confuse smackhead rock, (which is awesome), to a talented vocalist like C Cormell. Cornell is far beyond any of the 90's music heroes. I know it's a popularity contest... but, musically speaking, let's be real.

[Oozywolf]

I think he should do a duet with Shaun Morgan

[meshuggah6pantera]

I love this song but i just cant fucking stand anything of his work other than this and his performance with alice in chains in Right Turn that was awesome

[bacharrison]

This is gold. Thanks for sharing.

[DoggRodd]

is that seth green joking almost hurt your feelings or what

[AnnaK40]

Just beautiful!!! as always!! acoustic or original! only coz Chris sings it! :P

[mutantworm]

He might not be able to hit the ear bleeding notes he used to, but I still think he's one of the greatest singers out there even now. He can still belt it out better than most half his age. Listen to the 'When I'm Down' video on his web page. Sounds exactly like the studio version from '97. He still has it.

[Rabokarabekianyo]

Imre Bajor-Othello

[ryanleman2]

sorry about this (probably going to get neg'ed by anyone who likes this singer) but going unplugged he dosnt sound like a very good singer.... at all but his actual song he sounds really really really good

[OISSELAtube]

NO 1 SINGS LIKE YOU ANYMORE

[287750km]

What guitar is he playing? At first, I thought it was a Taylor but the headstock seems to be Martin. Am I close?

[ktadministrators]

@287750km its a martin my man... you are correct

[Metallicabd4444]

@287750km his guitar Martin 000C-16RGTE Aura

[rockstar9739]

dude chris is the man there is one that chris hits 3 damn octaves in under a minute during a progression and someone said hes a tenor but he can go so low and one of the best things about him is that when he screams whatever you want to call it his voice is not diminished its just as strong and amazingly even better than his voice is his songwriting abilities just reading his lyrics will give you goosebumps, i hope someday to be considered to be even half as good as he is whichll never happen

[Boothis2]

@rockstar9739 He was born an amazing vocalist!!!!!! 4 octave singer in his younger days but if you have ever listened to soundgarden you'll know why its diminished haha

[sccb85]

Okay seriously guys...who cares if he shaved his mustache unevenly if he can write a song that brilliant and sing the song that awesome......and to top it all off this video is like 5 years old and he has only gotten BETTER since then, just saying :)

[jasonbear72]

Yeah tell me about it Hey my bush is crooked myself but I will fix it in due time.

[MarieFederer27]

Everything about him is just absolutely gorgeous....

[jjames05]

looks like he shaved half his mustasche......just sayin.

[MrHoglet]

looks like he was trying to make a statement, typical muso, just hasnt caught on.

[funlivelife]

hahaha yeah i know....shaved too much on the left side

[robinkipling]

@jjames05 shut up

[jjames05]

@robinkipling suck it biatch

[psexnyc]

Love to see Chris and LL Kool J collab on a song together, unplugged, since they are both starring in a new TV show together....

[jimmytheweed101]

Explain?

[NONAMEWTF]

such a great voice. love when he screams.

[ugene1975]

this the all time fav......

[darvon63]

Chris is a musical instrument. We are fortunate that he shares his gift.

[Emilka1985]

Great song!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[ultramegaunknown]

Cornell kicks ass!!!

Soundgarden reunion!!!!

[0xeranoth0]

And Who is better then cornell ? Nobody because he is the man . Never heard a voice like that it goes right into your soul his voice chills me everytime.

[MrSpandauman]

agreed

[wildhead666]

@0xeranoth0 he's a unique singer and he's gd but (this is my opinion) i think Layne Staley was a better singer than cornell

[death2link]

@0xeranoth0 You sir have obviously never heard George Fisher

[prep0763]

@0xeranoth0 Myles Kennedy!!!!!

[thechaircover]

@prep0763 hes too whiney

[ATLsunset]

@0xeranoth0 Donald Carpenter

[Perniciousdeeds]

@0xeranoth0 Staley was much better.

[2High2Die738]

@Perniciousdeeds i know right...j/kin...Cornell,Cobain­,Veddar, and Weilend...are my family.

[Perniciousdeeds]

@2High2Die738 all are great, but none can match the pipes of Layne, his voice was truly in a galaxy of it's own.

[XxJoeyTerrifyingxX]

@0xeranoth0 Manyard nuff said

[caecar103]

@0xeranoth0 Kurt Cobain dude

[0xeranoth0]

@caecar103 lol

[josiahgust]

Is his mustache uneven, or is it just the camera angle? It looks super thin on his left side.

[naplesdan2000]

his voice is a good as i've heard live in this performance.

[alandyre]

q gonorrea de voz, asi me gustaria tener la voz a mi,

[Textra1]

Cornell has the most amazing voice. And what's more amazing is he sounds better live than in the studio. I miss Soundgarden.

[ItzDann]

love this song!!!

[murf5824]

what a great song thanks for the post cornell will always be a great vocalist just dont really care for his new shit

[evilexluv]

grabled123, your an asshole and dont have any right talking any kinda shit. chris is one of, if not the best vocalist ever. his range is amazeing. and what was wrong w/ TOTD? hungerstrike was a kickass song, and as far as eddie, he is also a very talented singer. just cause you prolly have a shitty band that tries to cover these great artists and get booed doesnt mean they suck. it means you do so stfu

[AutomaticPython]

Ha, sorry, but that was stupid. It's all in taste. Sure, he's a great vocalist, but you can't say he's the best. No such thing. But you might have said it just to prove a point.

Personally, he is'nt even on my top 10, but he sure is great.

Black hole sun is a fucking awesome song

[ArtjomGlad]

Who's your number 1 then? (mine ain't cornell either.)

[AutomaticPython]

@ArtjomGlad Det är nog omöjligt för mig att säga faktiskt. Man har ju sina favoriter men att försöka rangordna dom är inte direkt rättvist. Beror lite på hur jag känner mig.

En av mina favoriter är Corey Taylor, för hans röst har en smärta i sig (om man lyssnar på lite lugna låtar från Stone Sour/Slipknot).

Matt Barlow för kraften

Steve Taylor, rysningar

David Draiman för hans sköna flyt när han sjunger

Eddie Vedder, Into the wild låtarna

Detta är några av dom som jag lyssnar mycket på just nu.

[patrickjamesfitzroy]

He almost has Adolfs 'tache ;) xxx

[SUPERDANGLE]

My favourite song.. Great version too.. Thanks for posting

[tiddlywinks98712]

woh woh woh. vedder is amazing! why the hell are u slagging him off??

[AneBanane73]

YOU suck. cool version of a cool song, that's all ...

[magevent]

grabledl123 is a jealous bitch and needs to stfu

[cldr22]

I'd prefer a gibson J 200 but both guitars are nice ! awesome what do you think?

[mati357]

wow Cornell's voice sounds great

[phonic73]

or it could be an original Gibson Country Western which inspired the Sheryl Crow sig model.

[phonic73]

Chris is playing a Martin but not exactly sure which model, the other guy a Gibson Sheryl Crow signature, I know that one cos I have the same guitar.

[Pennawanna]

thats a Martin 000C-16RGTE

[jasonbear72]

anyone know what model guitar he is sporting there?

[Rkrocks11]

not liking the half stache... haha

[highron]

3:14 some moron starts clapping like the songs over lmao

[hexo5rnz]

Only a few singers can pull off an acoustic version of their original... you da' man Chris!

[SignoraDellaLuna]

this song always makes me laugh for some reason

[general1108]

probably because the lyrics are random and irrelevant to each other. considering chris apparently wrote the lyrics in like 15 mins

[8lu3m00n007]

yeah, probably smaked out of his genius-like mind.

[nickster0198]

maybe it means something to him and only him, and nobody would understand. lets say i say, lightning fast, pounding thunder.. it might mean something to you, but to me its a heart...

[XXjConXX]

he may not be able to wail like he used to back with soundgarden but my god when you give him an acoustic guitar his voice meshes with it so perfectly. honestly i just think he should tour in this fashion cause he does it so well

[soundgarden86]

CHRIS YOU'RE THE BEST

my hero !

some day i'll have a band

and he'l be my biggest insperation !!

god bless ya chris !

[MeeetallicA]

black hole son :D

[soundtheology]

it's "sun", it would be pretty bad if you had a black hole in your son. Might wanna get that checked out.

[jamezheart]

Go the Christopher! ... I've always said I had no heroes (But) ... Dammit - one day I'll get "Say Hello To Heaven" down vocally ... lord knows I'm close ... Merry Christmas all CC fans and fans of the time (you know what I mean - Ed was there too) :-)

[emotivedonkey]

all of you ripping on Chris please stfu. If you really are a fan you would stop judging like children.

[Blertaz]

i mean he still got it in him, but..omg TIMBALAND AAAAAH!!:/

[Blertaz]

i love this version(L)

it's a shame what poor chris became these days:(

[am1023]

obviously one of the BEST voices ever n on of the top voices in rock..the shit!

[Synystermatt]

I love his voice, so unique

[karifarrell]

What is up with the half mustache???

[adarov]

ROFL

[thesteve120]

dont knock it till you've tried it, its a popular look with guitarists

[nidzica5]

yes them broked is sad as broked SOAD :(

[Noodle2610]

best version of "black hole sun" i've ever heard =) Chris cornell is a genius

[slash9217]

I would die for a soundgarden reunion

PLEASE CHRIS BRING THEM BACK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Lucasblake90]

i am a singer and i have pipes not to brag and i will i could sing with Chris that is my dream and my goal

[boggie91]

You are one of the many, my friend :'(

[everman187]

I wouldn't die...but I would kill!!!

I do feel robbed...of all the bands I love, only a handful of them are alive...Layne is gone, Kurt.

C'Mon Chris...you have the means.

Pretty please with extra grunge on top...

[soundslave]

Vedder is still alive too :D

[LMAoClock]

Priceless performance. Flawless.

[NONAMEWTF]

awesome voice and awesome chords

[Icequeen316]

Freaking awesome. Love him!

[michaelcovert1]

hey NajaFur fuck u

[NajaFur]

Dude, I recanted! Alright?  I apologise.

[LMAoClock]

Fuck you anyways.

[NajaFur]

harsh :(

[matidesaloon]

great ..black hole sun soundgarden

[MrKoTo]

ears* (Yes I'm a french dude and i'm not writting english that well.)

[ewartiv]

hey najafur you suck now

[MrKoTo]

You should buy new hears I guess.

[NajaFur]

I retract this statement. I just don't like this performance. He's much better on "Unplugged in Sweden" when he sings this song.

[apollosrcool]

naja fur you suck

[kenny2akastig]

Very good.

I love this song.

[therisen77]

Man Chris' voice is shot.

[Minilamppost]

Its to be expected. However he's using his voice really well now a days. Knowing his limit in the high range. I thought this was actually a pretty good performance

[therisen77]

I guess so, but in an age where old singers are emerging with their voices nearly like what they were back in the day, it's tough to compare.

[oegug8]

Limit in the high range??? What about Jesus Christ Pose!!!

[Minilamppost]

Uh yeah that was in 92...of course his old range was beyond most..but now a days its not like it was..How could it be?

[TheFishHasExploded]

Unfortunately everyone loses vocal range as they get older. But Cornell still rocks!

[everman187]

he is our generations Robert Plant

[chidorirockstar]

lol no here wolf mothers singer

[Theeducated1]

ONE OF THE GREATEST SONGS OF ALL TIME. ROCK ON \m/

[KRISTINB2012]

i LOVE this song.

i love chris's voice..

[edreean2]

wow amazing song!! excellent performance!!

[Mellowbuzz1974]

im not sure that i have ever seen him and he wasn't amazing. ;)

[toadsnmarshmellows]

this is in vegas the week he played freemont street. His website had the wrong time posted for the concert and every one that wanted to see only him showed up an hour late. He redemed himself by coming back 3 weeks later. I thot the jesus christ pose on freemont was better than the recording. the last 20 mins that I saw were amazing.

[cristianmp3]

nice

[79xd79]

Shit... This is AMAZING. I'm off to learn how to play this now.

[roukasrocker]

hey do u have the tab or even remember where u got the tabs?

[joshparry]

somebody clapped at 3:11 haha good performance .

[RAB]

one of the Greats from my area.

Dont forget about BLACK HAPPY

:)

[drbelluomous84]

I gotta say I get chills everytime I hear this song. It makes me think of the greatest time of my life, and when I hear I feel like I am back there

[drbelluomous84]

I gotta say I get chills everytime I hear this song. It makes me think of the greatest time of my life, and when I hear I feel like I am back there.

[scotmunda90]

[tayejay18]

Wow!!!!!!!!

For one Im not gay, Im not even a guy.

Second this was a while back, who gives a fuck. Besides Im really not even a fan of Chris'. I was a big fan of Soundgarden but not Chris' solo shit.

[scotmunda90]

my bad...i hate his solo stuff as well. soundgarden 4ever!

[tayejay18]

Its all good, Its nice to see someone else who knows good music.

[lobmo]

This video was added ten years to the date SoundGarden officialy called it quits! =(

[comoncom]

LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!1

[rhoejaqueswift]

for a guy that blew out his vocal chords on numerous occasions, he still sounds awesome. (he would make a killer J.C. in a J.C. Superstar production)

[simon69uk]

is it just me or does he only have half a tash?

[Mood4Trouble]

lol

[sfm327]

LOL WELL SPOTTED MATE

[tripleb88]

yea...whats w/ that...he's gettin close to the hitler stash

[MrKoTo]

Seen som much acoustic releases of that marvellous title.

Definitely fallen in love with that one, and this way of Chris singing...

(Forget 'bout my weird english)

KoTo from France.

[sam51291]

[fahningbr]

Incredible Song. Incredible Voice. It doesn't get better than this.

[theuomarius]

[Tubenater]

Time

[naaf89]

How long ago was this? His vocal chords don't sound terrible as with Audioslave's live shows.

[fattycrabrocks]

excellent! age is turning him into a first class crooner. there's so much character in those chords.

[AudioSlave24]

love the song

[sonicbelle]

soundgarden. sigh... miss them.

[AudioSlave24]

i don´t know what a blackholesun is?!?!

[MisterPsycho69]

[Daveflex]
