the 90's. when rock bands sang they didn't sound like poppy prepubescent children. sure there are some around now, but it seems like you really have to dig beneath the shit to get to it, & the culture of music is really dying out in a lot of places... all of this mp3 bullshit ... I really wish I had enough money to buy all the albums I have bought on compact disc in vinyl form. & All I have around my area are "greatest Hit's" stores you'd be lucky to find something remotely rare or cool.
Hands down, their best album... perhaps not as many stadium fillers as other albums, but artistically the most accomplished of their compositions. They broke up the year after this. I guess they felt they'd done all they could do. Just beautiful.
I remember when I bought this album, I believe I was in the 8th grade. I was raised by my severely strict christian grandmother, who didn't allow me to have any good music. I bought the tape, she found it, along with Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness, Dirt by AIC, and a number of Led Zeppelin and Black Sabbath tapes. I managed to save this and Mellon Collie from the chopping block, and stashed them in the basement with a walkman. Small victories can mean so much...
This song has an incredible non-chalance to it vocally and instrumentally.. So dreamily drifting along. And yet with the heavy rock background. Really talented production.
Moments in time my friends....moments in time is all we live for. remember this as you go through your young lives as I did in the nineties. You may not be still married to the same person. Your kids can grow up and never call you. Things can not turn out as planned but at least you still have the moments in time.Ahhh if only I could get back home.Long live chris cornell and Soundgarden. Live for the moments in time my friends. Ahhhh Yess and if you look hard you can find a way back home.
@spartakick300 Ahhh. The 90's. I turned 20 in 1990, so I can relate. The anthem's of Generation X. What a time it was. Thank you for posting such a poignant message ;-)
@warrior4just that's my second favorite lyric. My first by far is "stop your trying to bruise my mind I can do it on my own. Stop your trying to kill my time it's been my death since I was born. I don't remembrer half the time if I'm hiding or I'm lost BUT ...I'm on my way.." Then my 3rd favorite is "Looking for a pedestal that I can put you on and be on my way..."
this song reminds me when i was a liltle guy when my whole family would really do things together now days just became distant nothinng like good memories :)
So glad I got into this band when I was a teenager, even tho 'grunge' was long dead. Their albums still mean alot to me. The lyrics on this song are some of their best, "Why doesnt anyone believe in loneliness??"
@InfiniteGravity chris cornell is rythum guitarist numbnutz.... whether or not he wrote the rythum to theis track is neither here nor there, chris is RYTHUM, kim is LEAD. I hope that puts that to bed....
@TheRis81 Haha. Chris just stands there with a guitar in hands. Can we agree that Kim's lead/rhythm guitars and Chris is rhythm? I mean, I'm sure if you took the guitar out of Chris's hands the song would sound the same :D. Let's face it, he's not much of a guitarist. Oh yeah, and you spelled "rhythm" wrong.
@InfiniteGravity is that how you spell 'rhythm'? interesting.... i was looking at my spelling of it and it didnt look right, but i didnt bother checking it out lol. yeah soundgarden is a collective effort isnt it? even ben shepherd and matt cameron contributed lyrics and whole songs in some cases.... cornell is not a great guitarist but it it still reads, kim lead, chris 'rhythm' (happy?)
@TheRis81 You're so right -Soundgarden is a collective effort. Couldn't say it better myself. I'm 30 and I love them more than ever. I'll be honest, I think Shepherd is Totally underrated -I find he wrote the best Soundgarden songs personally. Actually I think he wrote this song and Switch Opens, An Unkind, but Applebite( I pretty sure Cameron) -amazing tune. The important thing is that we're die hard Soundgarden fans :D It's good to know some people are still listening to great music.
@InfiniteGravity i'm 30 too, remember watching the video to 'black hole sun' at about 14 and being blown away, something about soundgarden that just clicks with me.... going to see em at the sydney showground, one of those bands i wish i'd caught years ago though.... oh well bring it on!
@TheRis81 Yeah eh? The dirty thirty haha! Wow, hope you have a blast dude! Never seen them. I did see Dime Bag 6 shows prior though. That whole thing still grinds my gears.
@Soundgarden8497 My ears are fine, it's okay to admit that a song by one of your favorite bands sounds like another band. Doesn't make it any less great. 8497 must be your birth date.
this song moves me on so many levels. it's funny how they weren't getting along so good at this point in their lifespan, but were still able to churn out some pretty incredible tunes.
@YertleDaTurtle yeah...I think this one is by Ben Sheperd. I'd have to check the liner notes, but yeah, I think this is one of his contributions. He also wrote an awesome song on Bad Motor Finger, Somewhere (In your dreams) I think that's what its called. I lost that cd in a wild and crazy move... :(
forget selling faith through your tunes just make music derrrrr your religious trend is so offensive to loving caring people that would rather not think there a part in all that's evil in this world engineers and christians are to blame for evertyhing thats evil or not working in this world of mine
When I first heard of the Chilean disaster that trapped some 30-40 miners underneath hundreds of feet of dirt... I literally thought ..."Zero Chance" of survivial!! Well... that proved not to be the case. All miners were rescued without major injury, a true miracle! The song and lyrics are eriely similar to that event. Take a look and listen and decide for yourself?
Very smooth and beautiful song. Cant get enough of it. If you're going through a rough patch in ur life, such as a lost love, this will make you cry. "zero chance of ever turning this around." Bought this cd right after a bad break up, havent stopped listening to it ever since. truly makes you think.

why chris.....why walk away from me now.....why when I'm like this.....why again and again this happens to me............I can't stop crying........maybe I should just die......
Not to exaggerate, but I think this is one of the most masterful mucical pieces ever written: music, lyrics, vocals -- all work together to create something greater than the sum of the parts. Magic. I've been wearing this song out for the last couple of months. Gets better everytime I hear it.
One of my most favorite album cover this is... What a great song... I think this song was what Cornell based in when he wrote much of his solo stuff... Some of the Audioslave tunes sound like this too..
Screw music of today. No soul, no legacy. Music like soundgarden never dies. They played music for the music. Not the money and not for the fame. I wish i could have been born 10 years earlier so i could have seen bands like this in their prime. Bought this CD just a few days ago. Completely hooked. best 15 bucks i ever spent.
@vikingdude17 I saw all these bands. Soundgarden, Nirvana, AIC, Radiohead... and Soundgarden was awesome. Chris played Like Suicide by himself...I got to tell you, that was the greatest song I ever heard him play. It was sick. There is a record you can get that has an acoustic version of Like Suicide...I think one of the singles from Superunknown if you own a record player. I have a huge record collection. I always bought Record, CD, and Tape of the bands I liked back in the day.
@also always loved how Chris Cornell would help other groups. He drove 2 hours after getting a call from Jerry Cantrell when AIC was working on sap. Chris is on Right Turn. Just flat out awesome!
@vikingdude17 It was a great time. I remember seeing S.Garden with opener TAD in 94. 17 years and I still think about it. Still got the shirt. Still wear it with pride.
@vikingdude17 don't know how old u r but ur taste in music is cool. Grew up 2 these guys man and i still love em. i remember when superunknown came out and we bought it the day it came out and we hated it. until like the 3rd time we heard it and now it's my favorite cd of all times.
@43messer I'm 20, so when superunknown came out i was only 3 years old. lol. I can see that. Same happened to me when I bought down on the upside. After once or twice through i was hooked on all its songs.
I agree -- and I was the worst offender. I wrote off loads of bands that didn't suit me at the time, for picayune reasons sometimes. Now I LOVE a lot of bands I never thought twice about, and I kick myself for blowing the chance to see them perform live when I could have.
2000 had a decent year.. disturbed blew up, godsmack was huge, korn, slipknot, you name it... 2001 when rock music started going down hill.. im always gonna be a 90's rock person though.
@Domino1309 neil peart named matt cameron his favorite drummer of that time. nice compliment. peart is amazing seen them being rush of course 7 times going for #8 soon.peaceout
This is one of their most beautiful tunes. The UK press really wrote Soundgarden off when this was out. They were discarded as being yesterday's sound and out of touch with what was happening.
I knew it wouldn't take many years to see which stood the test of time. May the Melody Maker remain forever buried in it's own stinking pile of shit. Fucking hack journos with their constant bitching and trying to wreck bands careers.
@dahlia533 Someone said they don't think there's any decent music around at the moment, that afte grunge we now have a pretty miserable music period ahead of us that seems to have no end to it. I think that now the world is in another shitty period of economics etc that decent music will again rise up .. look how many grunge era bands have reformed!!!
Eddie Vedder is a great singer and definitely enjoy Pearl Jam, but I prefer Cornell about a 1000x over. His lyrics, voice and songwriting are second to none in my opinion.
@schism206 I think Chris Cornell and Eddie Vedder are like two halves of the same voice. They compliment each other wonderfully.
I also really like Euphoria Morning. That is one of the most underrated pieces of Cornell's career. Some amazing songs and some of the best vocal perfomances he's ever turned in.
"Why doesn't anyone believe in loniliness?" This song is amazingly profound! Indeed, we have more and better reasons to believe in lonliness. Only a blind, alienated, insensitive, ignorant, and indifferent being can suppose that this world is the land of milk and honey! It is a corporative principle that people loves to bought! Actualy... human world is crap! Why one should be other way than lonely and worried for the humanity!

This song has stuck in my head every time I drink a beer since my best friend during our teenage years passed away in August2010.
Fuck a duck.

orezmusic,
I agree -- and I was the worst offender. I wrote off loads of bands that didn't suit me at the time, for picayune reasons sometimes. Now I LOVE a lot of bands I never thought twice about, and I kick myself for blowing the chance to see them perform live when I could have.

2000 had a decent year.. disturbed blew up, godsmack was huge, korn, slipknot, you name it... 2001 when rock music started going down hill.. im always gonna be a 90's rock person though.

@rcraig37854 ya the drumming sounds a lot like Bonham's drumming in Ten Years Gone and probably some of their other slow jams

This is one of their most beautiful tunes. The UK press really wrote Soundgarden off when this was out. They were discarded as being yesterday's sound and out of touch with what was happening.
I knew it wouldn't take many years to see which stood the test of time. May the Melody Maker remain forever buried in it's own stinking pile of shit. Fucking hack journos with their constant bitching and trying to wreck bands careers.

This awesome songs it's a bridge that link the end of Soundgarden and Euphoria Morning the Cornell solo album.
The structure, the sound and lyrics are very similar to Euphoria Morning which I consider a truly masterpiece.

@dahlia533 Someone said they don't think there's any decent music around at the moment, that afte grunge we now have a pretty miserable music period ahead of us that seems to have no end to it. I think that now the world is in another shitty period of economics etc that decent music will again rise up .. look how many grunge era bands have reformed!!!

Eddie Vedder is a great singer and definitely enjoy Pearl Jam, but I prefer Cornell about a 1000x over. His lyrics, voice and songwriting are second to none in my opinion.

@schism206 I think Chris Cornell and Eddie Vedder are like two halves of the same voice. They compliment each other wonderfully.
I also really like Euphoria Morning. That is one of the most underrated pieces of Cornell's career. Some amazing songs and some of the best vocal perfomances he's ever turned in.

Sounds like Pearl Jam on this song but I don't care because I like both Soundgarden and PJ and they're like friends or something.

"Why doesn't anyone believe in loniliness?" This song is amazingly profound! Indeed, we have more and better reasons to believe in lonliness. Only a blind, alienated, insensitive, ignorant, and indifferent being can suppose that this world is the land of milk and honey! It is a corporative principle that people loves to bought! Actualy... human world is crap! Why one should be other way than lonely and worried for the humanity!

I got to say this song is great but with all respect this song is a copy cat version of "Black". Believe, Pearl Jam is way better!!!

I know , i'm talking about the melody and beat.
It's very similar to "Black" from Pearl Jam.
All seatle bands have something in common and something they relate at.

I'm not trying to insult Soundgarden, but they definitely sound like Pearl Jam in this song. All the Seattle grunge bands influenced each other!
