  • The Best rock vocalist ever !!! Bob Marley would smile from above..

  • ECOUTER ,REDEPTION SONG PAR TETE

  • 34 dislike music

  • wow i did not expect his cover to be this good. props.

  • bye the hand of "lio messi"

    

  • o my god good good good very good!!!!!!

  • simply wonderful. everyone simply wonderful...?

  • WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!

  • Seriously. The BEST cover of the song.

  • bob marley would be proud.

  • I was brought to tears.

  • I was sitting here thinking, hmm... will I enjoy Redemption song with Chris Cornell screams? Then when he started singing smoothly, I said, I think this will be really nice without the scream. Then at 3:02 I was proven wrong twice =]

  • What a fuckin boss

  • if you truly believe in bob marley's aspirations, you would learn to appreciate any and, if possible, every cover of redemption song. bob marley is proud of all of them, and the proof is in the chorus itself. it doesn't matter whether it's not as good as the original (some will be in their own small ways but the original is still the best) or different in certain ways, they did good by answering marley's call, "wont you help me sing these songs of freedom", and spreading the love. peace ^_^

  • @CamoShafto If the modern day Chris Cornell is incapable of holding a key, then you're certainly there. Also, if the modern day Chris Cornell runs around making ignorant statements to troll people into hitting his channel and listening to this crap, you're it. The modern day Chris Cornell seems like an asshole though. I miss the old one.

  • After hearing him hit the high notes of early Soundgarden songs live, I truly believe this man has THE best vocal range and he puts it to the best use.

  • With Rihanna for butchering this amazing song to make a fast buck.

  • Spurskimo you truly are ignorant. Bob Marley was not only half white but his youngest son has a white mother. Bob is probably smiling somewhere as his music is enjoyed by EVERYBODY. Cornell's voice is amazing and he did the song justice by keeping it simple and using his powerful voice. I'm sure Bob is proud of this cover. If you want to be angry at somebody be angry at yourself for your "slavery" mentality. You'll never advance in life using that as a crutch for your problems. Oh and be upset

  • Redemption Song is way up there on my list of most beautiful songs ever written. Especially considering it's about the dream of each of us living peacefully in a liberal society. I get very annoyed hearing stupid fucks interjecting with their racist, separatist black nationalism bull shit. I've had too many of these idiots preach at me about how wrong it is for my wife to lay with a "white devil" like myself. Geez, grow the fuck up, quit blaming me for your ill-set life and learn things.

  • Cornell has such a good voice, this is a great cover.

  • Spurskino ....You are a racist scumbag!!! That is the most hateful ridiculous thing I've read in a long time!!! Chris Cornell just performed that somg on Jimmy Fallon for Bob Marley appreciation week. There is nothing wrong with Cornell covering one of his all time favorite songs ... Bob Marley would not agree with you...You Evil piece of dog shit!

  • Just like BB.KING said "white people get the blues too",we all get the blues as long as we have blood pumping through our veins.We all have a story to tell and we are all made of the same stuff.Songs are written and meant to be interpreted by each individual.That's my way of thinking and thats freedom.Thankyou Bob and thankyou Chris!

  • Spurskimo. From the bottom of my heart, you are the biggest idiot on YouTube and the dumbest idiot around the world. Bob Marley himself would laugh at how much of an idiot you are. You clearly did not understand the message in this song. Just to let you know. Blacks weren't the only slaves to live. And once again. Since you are an idiot I'll go ahead and remind. YOUR AN IDIOT!!!

  • true words arcade peace love and understanding

  • @Spurkimo Slavery was universal in the medieval period. White Europeans were captured but Barbary Corsairs and slavers from North and East Africa especially Portuguese Traders. Slavery and racism are unacceptable WHOEVER is committing them.

    You clearly have missed the point of Marley's music and Marley's message.

  • Comment removed

  • @spurskimo You have obviously missed the point Bob Marley was trying to get across.

    " one love, one heart, one destiny"

  • @spurskimo Music sees no colors.

  • @spurskimo that is the most rediculous and racist comment I have ever read ! I'm actually offended, as a white person I love Bob Marley's music AND the messages it has (such as to not be racist/ respect everyone/ be peaceful etc.) Maybe this guy appreciates his music too and felt like doing a cover of it, that isn't stealing ? Not ALL white people are bad .. yes , some of them are but there are bad people of every skin colour and race!

  • @spurskimo Only someone racist would bring race into the matter.

  • @spurskimo even though i disagree with you wholeheartedly and would love to see you beaten up, raped, and left in an alley, i know thats wrong of me. bob wanted us to love and cherish eachother, so i love you :)

  • @spurskimo relax bro. you need redemption. Bob marley wants peace!:)

  • @spurskimo Wtf you act like chris cornell single handedly started slavery and "crushed your esteem". He's just a musician paying tribute to another musician. Calm down.

  • @spurskimo Also why sould I try my best to be a good person every day , and not be racist or judge anybody by religeon,shape,size or colour JUST to be told that I am 'evil' all because of the colour of my skin? you need to realise that it's whats inside that counts, A person's heart and soul should be the only thing they are judged by , sorry for ranting , racism just annoys me :)!.

  • @spurskimo

    what is wrong with u??? this is just one artist singing another artist's work whem he admires....and Cornell does a hell of a cover here might I add..why are u even bringing race into the equation??? the lyrics of this song has nothing to do w/ race anyways.....just a song for mankind as a whole to better themselves....

  • @spurskimo FFS im sick of seeing and hearing BLACK slave's children singing and getting praise from a white art. Whats wrong with you man, Couldnt you cover Usher or Akon or some crap like that, When will you pigs stop eating from the lions of judah. You lot are quick to talk shit about the white man but fast to use his skills for your own ends.Stick to your own sound if you have one that is and delete this video as you have no right to sing white songs. BUT THAT DOESNT STOP THE DEVIL

  • See how racist your comment is now, spurskimo? Looks pretty vicious if I change all the "White" words and themes to "Black" words and themes, huh?

    Maybe you should look at my mimicking comment again, and open your eyes to a world without ignorance. Sure, the whole world will never be civil, there will always be racism; but maybe you can see how your feelings of hatred for someone with white skin is equally as terrible as a white racist.

  • one of the best singers ever!!!!!!

  • In The Words Of Bob Marley: 'Me only have one ambition, y'know. I only have one thing I really like to see happen. I like to see mankind live together - black, white, Chinese, everyone - that's all'

    LOVE AND PEACE ALL YOUTUBERS x

  • Wow...love it and love him!!!

  • I never liked him. This sheds the light and now I might.

  • great cover...!! he's got an amazing voice that just reaches my heart...

  • bundeva

  • splendore

  • wonderful.

  • Holy crap dude ur amazing DANG!

  • uncle bob where are u

  • Emmancipate yourselves from mental slavery; none but ourselves can free our minds!

  • goosebumps, the best version i've ever heard......

  • Awesome :D

  • chris cornell doing a cover is a great form of flattery, because he's so awesome

  • 32 people should be ashamed they disliked this!

    I love Chris' version of this song. Its brilliant with the acoustic guitar!

  • seriously some songs r 2 sacred 2 b desecrated by modern artists

    n this is 1 of them!!! give bob what belongs 2 bob!!!! 

  • @justmikem desecrated? wow! isn't that a little harsh? lol

  • @justmikem

    You commenting on a youtube page of a Bob Marley song with such horrible grammer is an insult to Bob Marley. How dare you.

  • @justmikem dumbass

  • I think he singing too fast ?

  • @nirwanaeathell

    Who gives a fuck?

  • 32 people wont help to sing

  • Nice!!

  • I hate when people rag on covers. Most of the time artist who cover old songs do it cause they admire or looked up to that artist. They aren't necessarily trying to outdo them or be better.

  • Great!

  • This is Amazing!!! He have one of the best voices i ever heard

  • Comment removed

  • @Jzamorat creo q seria mejor tener a las 2 bandas juntas por q soundgarden y RATM tienen tremendos temas y quien sabe capaz q en soundgarden chris toke temas de temple of the dog. sabes q bueno q seria

  • lovin it man

  • i must say chris you do it justice..i adore Bobs version, also the mighty Joe strummers ..but im amazed by this..i think its because of the wonderful sound of Chris voice .. such a great version..fantastic

  • OMG this is the best version I've heard of this song form Bob Marley! I've heard many and this one finally does honor to the original. What a great voice Chris Cornell has!

  • His version of this song is absolutely AMAZING!!!! Love Chris Cornell!!!!!!!!

  • Ha ha ha people just yappin about who's better. They forget that Bob loved when people covered his songs, so many pirates downloading his stuff for free and they're worried about who's better than who.

  • Chris Cornell has such an amazing voice. I've never heard him sing and not loved it. Wish I had half the talent.

  • oh wow, wonderful version, it takes something special to cover Marley, this is up there with the mighty Joe Strummers version, nice take Chris..

  • Lmao. I heard zack de la rocha repeat the kill our prophets part in wake up in a rage song, then heres chris doing this while he was still in audioslave. it all came full circle

  • great version! :)

  • I do not understand people who always try to find something to complain about regarding covers. These artists cover songs mostly out of respect and great admiration for the originators of these songs. The point is not to sing it as the original singer did, but to find a new way of doing it that says something about one self. I enjoyed this cover very much. Thanks a lot mate :)

  • awsome plain and simple...

  • awesome

  • excellente reprise,font chier tous c'est cons avec leurs comparaisons,l'important est l'emotion qu'ils font passer a travers leur reprises !!!

  • great cover..!

  • chris is amazing but bob will always perform this better

  • this song is amazing, in the voice of bob this song makes me cry, in the voice of chris is strong, a great tribute for a great man

  • Of course Bob Marley is Legend! Chris in no way claims to be better than Bob. He's just paying tribute with this amazing performance...

  • u can try and be like bob but u will never ever succeed rest in peace bob..........

  • @kamozcpl its a great song no matter who sings it get a life bob marley is great but the word cover is meant for a reason

  • Cornell forever

  • true

  • Brought a tear to my eye :')

  • I love this cover!

  • This is wicked, inspiring.. For everybody that knows of the country New Zealand search KATCHAFIRE'S version of REDEMPTION SONG.. Its epic.. Jah..

  • awesome!!!!!!

  • What is it about YouTube covers that seems to bring out the predictable childish, soul-less responses form idiots who obviously have no clue about music and its true value in the first place. I'm sick of hearing that "blah de blah is better than so and so....", just enjoy the music. We all know Marley was a inspirational legend. This is an inspirational song, and Marley would be proud of this version. In these covers his music and soul live on forever, stop making comparisons and simply enjoy.

  • finally someone on youtube who isn't a moron. thank you sir for this comment, i agree completely.

  • @MrMightyWah I love you

  • @katowarrior Love you rite back Kato!

  • @MrMightyWah That's deep my friend, i totally agree with you man, greetings from Colombia

  • @SuperRaficokings87 Much love to Colombia, just glad my words are appreciated and people feel the same way. Peace to all mankind was the simplest and purest message Bob Marley often preached, a Preacher Man of the people, may his music live on in others forever.

  • BOB MARLEY!!! chris is ok! but bob marley! was the "o sen sei" chris cornell cover is really good! but no one can be like bob marley!! he was the IDOL!!

  • IDOLO!

  • amazing

  • putos

  • amazing voice...powerful song. I think Bob would be proud that Cornell covered this.

  • Great musican cornell, wonderfull concert performed in israel...

  • where can you download this album???

  • how can u hate marley/??

  • how can u hate bob marley????? i can understand if u prefer 2 listen 2 some1 else, but how can u HATE BOB MARLEY???????????????

  • Let It Go, peaple xD!!!!

  • @bdjwinn i agree hate is a very strong word.

  • Do you know anything about Bob Marley?? Chris Cornell is a good musican but Bob was that a SO much more.

    Legalize Ganja!

  • Who said that he hate him ?!!!!! Bob Marley is one of the greatest man ever ! He is one of these persons who woked hard to change the world and he succes . It always makes me happy when i listen to Bob. That was his goal , make everybody feel high with his music . Love and Peace Bob Marley.

  • great great rock voice.

  • This is the best cover of this song, hands down!

  • @dpnc02 Absolutely!! I've never heard a version anything even close to this

  • I agree dude... this is awesome.

  • there are some songs that just reach out and become the voices of the common men. it doesnt matter who sings it or how, as long its been sung.

    peace. love.

  • @negativearcade dude, i totally agree! that needed to be said.

  • F-A-N-T-A-S-T-I-C-A!!!!!!!!!

  • It's a nice version but nothing is ever like the original. In particular this song.

  • this is good, this is very good.

  • this is what I love about this song, you can just play with the vocals

  • Is there really a need to reference this beautiful cover as though there is a competition with the original? Chris is obviously moved by this song and wanted to capture the emotion it made him feel. This is nice homage to Mr. Marley

  • he realy captured the emotion :)

    its not the original tho...buts its still better than good!!

  • unreal.....as good as original

  • Goosebumps, i have them for real.

    Damn him and bobs voice woulda meshed together so good, i just realized that. So good.

  • truly moving

  • go chris cornell!

  • Chris' voice is one of the best vocal I ever heard of...

    Ive listen to this version on my earphone while laying on my bed and he had no pitch and his husky voice is truly original..salute u Chris...u have your own voice and style...And this version of Redemption Song is simply amazing!

  • dont judge... the song is being showcased because the artist beleives in the spirit of marley one love............

  • loves

  • a unique voice.... no doubt about it

  • chris cornell is a god among men, all of his covers including this one are flawless. thanks chris for the soulful music. long live soundgarden

  • You know it - I second (and third!) everything!

  • "have no fear for atomic energy coz none of them can stop the time" Can anybody say something better?

  • a great song and brilliant version!!!! I love it!!

  • one love.

  • I soooo love his voice!  it can pull me outta any funk any day of the week!!

  • Amen.

  • O cara é fudido!!!!

  • J'adore trop sa voix! Il chante trop bien sérieux en plus redemption song lui va très bien ! :D

  • awsome !

  • yeah, thats true, because no matter what genre of music u like or play, rock, rap, metal, country, everybody loves bob marley, his message was universal like all great art

  • @chat099 i don't

  • my favourite singer singing one of my favourite songs. Thanx Bob and Chris! AMAZING

  • really great, great cover. chris cornell is such a good singer. i get so nostalgis when i hear his voice cuz my dad always used to listen to soundgarden when i was young.

  • he can not match bob.... but he shud klisten to the song... "none but we ourselves can free us"... come back cornell... come back to audio slave.. free urself from gayism.. of timberland

  • i agree!

  • I totally agree. Maybe he can come back with Soungarden instead of Audioslave.

  • well he cant come back to audioslave... rage against the machine are back together... sadly for audioslave fan... :(

  • bur rage dont bring another album..maybe one day audioslave play together again...

  • i dont think soungarden should reunite, they have quite a legacy to live up to, and chris even said himself that there really isnt much need for it

    great cover tho

  • there isnt wat id like to knw its were did kim thi go off 2

  • good question man, i wonder that too. ive heard hes been doing some work on lesser known bands. i guess wikipedia is ur best bet =D

  • Agree. Let's face it, Chris' voice isn't as good as it once was. They should leave it alone.

  • OMG best comment on All of youtube, free yourselves of timberland.....hahahaha.

  • thanks .... glad u agree... =| lol

  • A fuckin men to that....marley was a talent we wont see again

  • i havn't red a more true comment on youtube

  • trent reznor loved this cover... lol

  • Chris Cornell has a great voice. The thing about Bob Marley is that he is revered by all musicians no matter what genre from rock to rap to ska and punk and country. Johhny Cash, Pearl Jam, U2 and countless others have covered this song.

  • what did cash,u2,pearl jam covered?????

  • Cash, U2 and Pearl Jam have covered Redemption Song originally by Bob Marley

  • Many artists have covered B. Marley

  • Bardzo fajnie to Chrisowi wyszło :))

  • I just can't see the why of personal opinions written like the only truth. You don't love marley, ok... But i think millions can't be wrong. And the fact of other great bands never got recongnition doesn't make his music worst. And i don't listen marley often. I just think opinions are jut that... (i'm not very good writing, sorry for any mistake or bad phrasing)

  • well being the majority doesnt make you right, neither does being the minority , but its always right in the individuals opinion, people need to learn that, i see many people pulling the majority card

  • once again a fucking drthvdr strikes again with his lame ass wanna be...
