  • This makes me want to cry out of sheer beauty

  • @wcs1100 No, it's mike Inez

  • no one to cry too, no place to call home.

  • Classic

  • shivers every time

  • Love The End Time

  • is mike star the bassist in this song

  • Damn, that guitar rif between verses is wounding. Gives me chills everytime I hear it... Classic.

  • lml

    

  • Fuck I love this song.

  • 420

  • i was 19 when my grampa died back in 2010. i kept promising myself if i could regain my sanity i would go and see him before he died. well when i did get those moments of peace i would use them as a liscence to go right back to what i was doing. i was in the mental ward when i found out he had passed. ill have 3 months clean this saterday God willing.

  • How can you put a fucking advert before a song like this?!! MOFU'S!!!!

  • @wccfl07 people think i'm weird because i already know this song is playing at my funeral.

  • @ibevey They're probably just upset that they don't have a song picked out yet

  • Comment removed

  • This video is 4:20 long *_^

  • If I can't be my own

    I'd feel better dead

    SO FUCKING TRUE...

  • really sad soundingvery good song a classic.

  • 29 people are justin beiber pussys !

  • i wish layne could have been clean and sober he would continue to write story with aic :(

  • im 19 years sober

  • No singers death has echoed in my thoughts as much as layne has, live fast because time wont last, because he died alone just proved that he meant what he sung, R.I.P LAYNE

  • Nutshell. What an awesome track written at the height of his addiction.... Sometimes drugs actually do help!!!

  • @EYEQNIL I understand what you mean and no offense, but it's not the drugs that gave him the musical talent for writing that he had. Drugs don't help you at all. It explains how he was suffering from his addiction and that he couldn't help it because he had already inflicted too much damage on himself to stop. It's really sad how heroin tore such a talented musician apart like this. And really, I didn't mean any offense to you if you took that the wrong way.

  • Comment removed

  • @EYEQNIL Uhg. Layne never glamorized his addiction. And he'd probably call you out for saying such a moronic thing.

  • I became sober Oct 1st 2008 from alcohol & crack I continue 2 live sober & forever will b sober, its a promise I made 2 my deceased parents cause I wanted 2 get sober while they were alive but did'nt hav the strength. Now 3 plus yrs sober & never looking back, love 2 everyone who is struggling dig deep u can acheieve sobriety.

  • @soberslayer666 bless you. me, heroin and alcohol..still battling

  • @soberslayer666 So Proud Of You Guys.....

    Much Love, Respect, And A Eternity Of Success :)

  • @soberslayer666

    I'm 13 months clean of painkillers, heroin, cocaine, and even marijuana. Best of luck to you sir.

  • I wouldn't mind. :)

  • yup

  • Here i am,Listening to this song. Thinking why did i ever get on drugs? Damn heroin I got on it after my loss of a family member and i cant fuckin stop Wish i had someone to Cry too and im 16 on drugs fucked So afraid to be around someone i wish someone cared about me and i wana kill myself for doing that.

  • @dalton06101 You need to remember that all of the people all alone in some way. If they aren't-they only think so. I can't understand what you feel, but I feel that you must know that this family member wouldn't like you to think about it like that. If you still get drugs, do everything to quit it. If you are sad about that person - make everything to change it into warm memories and try to be happy, FOR THAT PERSON. If you feel alone... Evereryone does in some way.

  • @LaraWarriorWolf Im too big of an addict to stop and i have no more family no freinds noone i get what ur saying but its way too hard for me a useless person lonely just wanted 1 person for a friend just wanted 1 person out of billions and yet noone cares that my life is next to hell so i guess ill be the one all alone noone.

  • After hearing of SOPA, I cry to this song

  • these guy got me into music its self therefore they get credit for my favourite band. but i found out about dubstep and listened to tht alot. i came back here, first thing i thought was "what the fuck am i doing". i forgot how much i love this dubstep you can wait a lilbit

  • best song ever, exp. the mtv lice version

  • <3

  • i cant actually finish listening to this song coz ill just break down. it pulls at the heart strings something fierce. its THAT good of a song.

  • @ALLHELLBROKEL00SE yeah i agree it made me cry till just recently this really shows what layne was going through

  • See guys, this is a youtube video where you can feel love and not hatred, it's quite amazing isn't it :D <3 and congratulations everyone who has quit heavy drugs, carry pride in what you did <3

  • waiting to go into hab on Friday .. that or death,

  • @chadt420- You can do it!  Good luck to you.

  • Good job on quitin , never was on anything hard but hell i smoked pot and have ruined jobs from time to time like a mindless zombie with out a care and having a hard time with my record but hell if the world preaches about quiting something and you do and still dont give a damb then what? Fuck them i wont give up and for those hating cause they are still doing drugs well look at laynes last interview and what he said....... for christ sakes the man said he was so bad off he was shitting himself

  • @xXxCulpxXx ------CONT. and wished he never stated heroin! dont that fucking mean something to some of you? Fucking christ if your a fan youd know what Layne was basically saying in all efforts. Hell he even had a Layne Staley drug rehab after he died to help others. The shit he went through while on heroin was a story to tell the world to give an idea or maybe even confidence either way you look at it age comes fast and you break down in time regardless what drug your on. Good job for those

  • @xXxCulpxXx people like you man don't understand not only was he on herion but he was in one of the most amazing bands that ever lived. with being in one the greatest bands means that you are going through alot of f*cking stress shows every week and differant country''s every month. I don't see you doing any of these things without feeling depressed or stressed Layn did this for fucking 12 years i don't see you doing the stuff that he did in 6 months. For christ sakes dude he is human RIP LAYNE

  • Check out my tribute this this if/when you get the chance . .. more to come ..

  • @thezone good for you bro!

  • This song has so deep meaningfull that i cant even describe with words..music tells all..and singing..unbelievable..

  • @longlivemetal1000 agree with you, his a weak minded idiot for getting in to that shit in the first place, he could go back to being a junkie for all i care

  • @TheUthule hey man cool you just keep on bein a pontificating fuckwit. see where it gets you. you must be a real fuckin hero

  • Lost count of how many times this song would put me at ease in down times. Can't believe the CD still works in my car.

  • Going through some of the songs on Jar of Flies, I've noticed a pattern. That pattern is that their songs have helped people through some sort of struggle. That says something; that says that their music reaches a depth and meaning that isn't even remotely even attempted in today's music.

    Rock on, everyone.

  • @CapnCheezburger totally agree!

  • A ja jestem Polką i będę pisać po polsku, bo po angielsku to tylko masę błędów narobię. Kto jeszcze z Polski to niech da łapkę w górę, co? A poza tym, to co najważniejsze. Ta piosenka jest piękna i chyba więcej powiedzieć sięnie da ;)

  • I fuckin miss the 90's, music was so much deeper back then...

  • this song has helped me threw the toughest time in my life seeing your family go down to drugs and not being able to do nothing but sit by and watch them fall apart piece by little piece is one of the hardest things ever

  • 28 people's privacy has been raped.

  • this song makes me want to cry and im a guy

  • @VentheSenpai Who gives a damn if you're a guy. I'm a girl... But i'm pretty sure gus aren't emotionless.

  • this is one of those totally haunting songs

  • Goodbye, Layne Staley. This beer is for you. You are not alone.

  • I sang this song at a buddy of mine's funeral.

    RIP Tommy

  • every time i hear this song my skin crawls. truly beautiful song, but at the same time very hard to listen to, i almost want to cry.

  • @myPAINisSELFchosen85 Really? This has got to be the most stupidest thing I have ever heard. Kids need to stay away from drugs so they dont end up an idiot like you. There is no such thing as using drugs recreationally. People who use drugs hurt many people in so many different ways. It is a selfish addicting terrible thing. I give sooo much credit to the people that fight everyday to stay clean.

  • Comment removed

  • I dont know why, but I listen to this song everyday... it hits home in a weird way... I wish I could have met layne, to see what he was really like, like.. if he lived the music he sang... this song definitely just makes me think deep... I hope it has the same effect on others!

  • @armymanhua It does, friend. More than you know.

  • @armymanhua Also, try to find Layne's last interview, a few months before his death. He was very well aware of his fate, and that he put himself there. There is no worse sorrow than that feeling, and it consumed him. I can guarantee you that this song sums up his feelings and emotions as raw as he could, in as few words as he could. Layne wrote this song himself, several years before his death, in the throes of addiction. He knew. And he was sad.

  • Watching Spartacus with this song in the background. R.I.P. Andy

  • Layne , Your lyrics inspired a generation Thank you for not being pearl jam or nirvana !!

  • @309Edman You're a FUCKING IDIOT! Maybe you're a dopehead who can only get a dopehead, but you probably didnt live the 90's. Maybe you can't understand the cryptic lyrics of Cobain or the feeling of Vedder, but don't discredit their Genius. When is your next album coming out asshole? ....ignorant fuck....P.S. Layne is the man too, and I'm not disputing that....but still fuck you!!!

  • @just1saying2it3 And thats your opinion Im listening to a alice in chains video and one of my fav songs "Nutshell" posting my respect to Layne Im not kissing Cobain and or Vedders ass on a nutshell video I have mad respect for their work but Layne Staley is the greatest Grunge singer of all time Period !!

  • Great song! The first time I heard this song I was into it the moment the guitar sounded. I think someone posted depression never sounded so beautiful...I would have to agree. @MasSKiLLiNN. Keep your head up, bra. Day by day is all you can do. A lot of us are lost out here.

  • @DDHeffner ...Thank You..."Day By Day In Every Way I'm Getting Better And Better :)"

  • This song is so beautiful and so chilling. It's almost as Layne knew what his life would become. He left us too soon.

  • @Revolver271 read the lyircs asshole thats not what its about its about the skinners not making him feel like himself

  • @Revolver271 read the lyircs asshole thats not what its about. its about the skinners not making him feel like himself because we hasnt got real skin just like the rest of you mongs

  • Thank You "All" For Your Support :) Love You Guys.... A.I.C. 4 Ever!!!!!

  • when do i get to be comfortable, the life will be the death of me sooner or later i will loose, you cant keep your gaurd up forever some one better will be my end if its not me that finally gets me

  • Fuck.....Sitting Here At Home... Listening To This Song At 3am On New Years Day With Tears Streaming Down My Face...Thinking Of How Far I've Come in The Last Year. I To Was A Heavy Drug Addict, (Among Other Things) And Now... I've FINALLY Said Good Bye. Wishing All Of You An Amazing 2012

  • @wccfl07 Thank You :)

  • @MasSKiLLiNN

    People have no idea how difficult it is to overcome something as powerful as an addiction. You're blessed to have that ability, my friend. Good luck in the future and I hope you stay clean.

  • @WeHateThePatriots Your Words Mean So Much......The Amount Of Support And Encouragement I Have Been Getting, Makes Me Stronger Everyday.....Thank You

  • @MasSKiLLiNN Many congrats, man. I have known people who lost their lives to this horrible affliction. You stay strong and don't let anything stop you. Lean on your supports and never be afraid to ask for help. Many ups dude! I admire it in you!

  • @mscynergie .....I Literally Have Destroyed My "Lives" Too Many Times......Kidney, Heart, Lung, And Liver Damage.....And That's Just The Body...Not To Mention My Homes, Jobs, And "Most" Importantly My Friends And Family......It Is Truly A Miracle That I'm Alive, And That These People Took Me Back With Open Arms......Forever I Will Be Grateful...Much Love

  • @thezode

  • @thezode With Hope, These Posts Will Help/Support Others Who Are Going Through What We Went Through.....I Am Proud Of You :)

  • @thezode I am proud of you, you can do anything you want now. It took strength like nobody can know unless they have been there, so now the doors are wide open! Stay clean and ask for support when you need it. Bless you.

  • @thezode i'm going to rehab in two weeks, i'm scared but know i can't carry on as i am

  • @violethigher im not gonna lie rehab didnt work for me as soon as i got out i relapsed i had to move away and start over but man rehab will at least clean you up while your there and put a new perspective on things youll be surprised how differently youll think just having 2 weeks clean under your belt

  • @thezode thankyou, got alot of changes to make, which i should have done years ago

  • @thezode fucking hands up to you m8:)

  • @MasSKiLLiNN Proud of you. :D

  • @PrimalNotion1 ....I Can Feel The Hug From Here.....Thank You So Much :)))

  • <3

  • Depressing ass song, but I still love it.

  • hands down best fucking song EVER!!! thank you so much layne for giving us this gift. R.I.P.

  • This song actually made me cry..

  • Layne, Mike... we miss you both. Thank you for this beautiful gift, we're sorry that you had to leave so soon.

  • I fucking hate you, heroin. It's time to stop taking people we love from us.

  • @raineman73 ....it's time people we love stop taking IT..

  • This song really gets to me like no other - , Layne and Mike were beautiful and talented and also fragile, and anyone is playing russian roulette when they start using drugs.

  • YET I FIGHT THIS BATTLE ON MY OWN ....

  • great song, great band.

    RIP Layne and Mike.

  • drugs ? yall mean man made drugs ?

    kids !, smoke bud, not meth !

  • Now we have Aaron "I'm mad about stuff and now I'm country" Lewis and Seether doing their own versions of this song and many other early to mid 90s bands. Enough. Stop it. Come up with something original and stop feeding off the popularity of these bands. We don't like you. We don't listen to you. We don't buy your albums. We certainly don't buy your fake emotion. You come across as whiny little girls because you are.

  • I cried.

  • God, We give you J.Bieber, Jonas Brothers, M.Cyrus and all this shit, but you let us Layne.

  • So beautiful. I miss you Layne.

  • ugh yes. so lovely.

  • This is absolutely magnificent.

  • This song is like a dark, intoxicating lullaby. I can't stop listening to it. The emotion comes through so clearly

  • am i the only one who misses Layne Staley. if u do like this

  • Within a few chords my eyes begin to water......

  • I'm new to Alice in Chains. This is the coolest song I've ever heard.

  • @recniabsal You are heading in the right direction. If this is the 1st song you have ever heard by AIC you are in for many treats. This is a great song to start off with. May I suggest Facelift and Dirt as two dics you must have or to download on ipod or ur phone, it will be some of the best music you will ever have heard.

  • @mscynergie is completely right! @recniabsal, listen to Dirt! It's great. I would also recommend Bleed the Freak and Rotten Apple. Two of my many AiC favs. =)

  • Who's this beiber kid I keep hearing about

  • Who's this beiber kid you guys talk about so much

  • man nirvana kicks ass more

    

  • @GrudgeyCable shut the fuck up, its stupid to compare bands like that and disrespectful

  • Heard this song on The Shield season 4 and Then discovered my favorite Grunge band.

  • this is actually tough for me to listen too my favorite band since i was 4 literally when i heard he died when i was 5 i cried tht whole day great song wish you were back layne

  • Think of all the cool rock/pop stars that are gone, they must be havin one hell of a party somewhere.

  • The 28 nobody's who disliked this song are zero's across the board. They need to keep listening to their indie, eno, lady gag trash and leave the AIC Army of superior musicianship leave them to become the pedophiles they are destined to be!

  • @HellFrozeOverAndOver i agree with you except for the lady gaga part lol

  • @RuachofTruth ... sorry mate if it hurt anybody's sentiments .. I mean liked the comment so felt like sharing .. didn't mean wiki is whole-sole .. I love and respect Legend Layne like anything, he's simply godsend .. Nutshell is my fav AIC song and will always be .. whenever I listen to it ..  feels a relation between me and Layne's soul .. Layne is immortal !!

  • R.I.P. Layne Staley and Mike Starr

  • omg i heard this song on the radio ...cant believe i forgot about this song....sooo beautiful best song they have ever made

  • heroin aint nojoke ive been struglin for 10 yrs RIP Layne

  • @nasten81 yea hun ive been through it...its a bad bad thing to get into... i wish you the best of luck sweety....should go to the done clinic its what i did... gl sweety

  • @nasten81 Yeah?? Been there done that.. Quit "struglin" and get the fuck out of yourself. Pity parties arent going to save you.

  • @RuachofTruth Chill the fuck out kid, no ones looking for a "pity party." Quit spamming this beautiful song with stupid bullshit. You obviously don't know shit about Layne, he OD'd, so it would only make sense for people to post their stories. Kids these days... must be something in the water.

  • @RuachofTruth i ainthavin a pitty party bra.jst staten facts shits hard to get away from.

  • @nasten81 it can get pretty rough,i have problems myself though i never progressed to heroin and i thank god for that. nothing good can come from that. good luck my friend

  • get out my bidness i wont but lol

  • The song is notable for its emotional acoustic instrumentation and its electric guitar solo as well as its dark lyrics dealing with loneliness, despair, and death. It is considered a staple of alternative rock/grunge and a classic of the '90s as a whole. - wiki

  • @retrojit Awww damn if wiki says so then by God it's the last word. Go get some gray matter. The song is awesome and not because "wiki" says so. What a joke!!!

  • Beautiful song...

    Don't do drugs, kids.....

  • @GetOutMyBidness Such a recycled saying, but it's true man.. worst mistake of my life was messing with drugs, heroin and shit is no joke. Don't even touch it kids, withdrawals are a bitch. Still struggling with it, and I'm only 19 :\. Gorgeous song man, def in my top 10.

  • @GetOutMyBidness certainly a beautiful song, but where you went wrong is telling kids not to do drugs. Drugs are fun and you can live a normal life IF and only if you manage to not let your recreational use turn to habitual. Which is not easy, I myself had to enter a methadone clinic to get it back down to recreational. Now I only score every other friday on my payday. Drugs can be a very eye opening thing that allows you to get to know your self in ways u never could sober

  • @myPAINisSELFchosen85 man do u believe in what u did just say?? I am stuck with methadone treatment for more than 7 years, and i've been through that friday (only) shit a several times, and i can tell u for sure IT NOT WORK . soon or later the idyll beaks, and u realise that u are in same old crap, again. so please dont tell kids that drugs are cool and funny, because they are not, and most of the kids are stupid and naive, thay think they wil be cooler if they do drugs...

  • @GetOutMyBidness lol its 4:20

  • @GetOutMyBidness yeah ur a dumbass if u do the strong stuff i agree

  • This song is beautiful, Im sitting hear all alone and when I hear this song, Im content with that........
