I got insomnia listening to this saddest song ever. It reminds me of my late good friend who killed himself, and was a great Polish young singer and composer.
mad season is the best band i have ever heard in my life this is wes scantlin from puddle of mudd layne had soul in his voice and heart there really isnt any one word to describe his vision and artistticness he was above and beyond his time god bless him and his family and friends that miss him you done good brother
Lay in the sun and bake, pour another drink and start to think. Is it a day to play or should we stay away? Read a book or go see your friend, your friend might take you to the end.
as a matter of course this song just as the video is too good to have angry comments, although i didn't notice any arguments such as you did. Insofar i do not understand what you`re refering to :)
btw: yes, you`re right, there was no song called "above". I mistook "above" for "I'm above"... my fault :)
spectacular song, simple, beautiful, you should've changed the vid up just a little, adding different flash footage would have been cool, but nevertheless good job.
Layne wrote this song about and for Mike Mc Ready(Mad Season & Pearl Jam guitarist), who was going thru his own recovery as Layne was from 10 years of alcohol abuse, during the time they were writing and recording together for Mad Season.
The name of this song is Wake Up. It's an amazing song off of one of the most amazing albums of the 90s, I think. It is really overlooked but a wonderful experiance and this video really shows what Staley was going through. A long road with no destination.
Man all I can say is Thank you Layne rest in peace noone knows what theylost whentheylost you . You were amazing and a true voice for my generation. Sorry that whenyou died there wasnt much ever said about it on any of the news channel. You alwayswill be someone I look up to for inner peace
This song is amazing. Always has been and always will be. Mad Season was one of the best side projects ever. Side projects are usually obscure but Mad Season took the best of 3 big time seattle bands and made a classic rock/blues album for the ages.
with out it he wouldnt of been who he was and his music world have sucked he killed himself not the drug and for all of you to blame a drug is pussy shit
anyone who has ever been addicted to heroin knows that it is the biggest mistake of their lives. Sad thing is that they only realize it after it has already stolen their life. dead or not.
it doesnt have to just be about smack there are too many drugs to get addicted to...some it might be H some it might be white china....but if you've struggled with drugs at all you would understand how it is
China White is NOT heroin dumbfuck. It dumbasses like yourself that started calling heroin by that name that made other dumbfucks think it correct. China White is fentanyl. But since people decided to call heroin by this, and they was wrong, it has caught on. So now every little douche bag like you Wesley thinks they know what they are talking about. Obviously k4aic does know, and you Wesley are a dumbfuck.
"were" "was" you gotta be fucking joking you half-assed wanna be grammar nazi. but since you opened this can of worms, let's look at your response. That is actually 2 sentences there you wrote, so a comma is in correct. The I in "it" and the L in learn should be capitalized. No periods at all. You really are a piece of shit. So if you are going to critique someone's grammar don't make mistakes in yours you piece of dog shit. now go fucking die douche bag
i like this song...and i like this video. it's simple...you have to choose your way...like life...you can go anywhere you like...or not...you can find your destination or ... RIP layne.
This song is beautiful. Despite the fact that it's about heroin I'm sure most people listening can relate it to an aspect in their life; drugs or not. You're right, what a waste yet although Layne was not a good example he sure succeeded in being a bad example.
no your the dumbass on here dude if you have EVER been into dope and shooting up you would know this shit is no joke and its not like anything u cant just stop....its not that fucking easy dont u know a junkie or watch intervention or see the stars...dugs and the needle....fuck you dude u shoot up and see how easy it is to stop after YEARS!!!! Dont diss the drug users just cause U DONT LIKE IT!!! LAYNE RIP
People don't know about this stuff they smoked some dope when they were young or in collage then quit they don't know serious drug users.If Layney where to just stop at even this point in his addiction he would most likely have died its a road to recovery and for some a life time.
I agree, it is a horrible thing and a lot of people don't understand. It is really hard to go through im sure, im very close to someone who had a horrible drug addition, and it's hard just watching them get up just to fall back down.
It took me about 5 minutes to dig the bitch up, but damn she knows how to fuck, and I got into canada by dressing up and acting like a fag, cause you know thats how everyone is over there in Cananda, I know it took me awile to talk myself into it, but I heard your Mom was good and wouldn't take long to dig up cause she been dug up before.
Layne is definitely up there, but I would have to give the highest honors to Chris Cornell, in his early years, well, you should know, he did a little song called "Right Turn" with Alice in Chains, that should sum it up in that song itself of his range capabilities
Layne had a magical voice and it came sraight from the soul in a way few can emulate--one of the greatest EVER. His music touches my soul, and his departure makes it uneasy and sad.
This song hasment som fukking much to me for years. I was self there for "10 long years" and I woke up. This has been like a lullaby song for me. R I P Layne
First song how i heard over 10 years ago from Mad Season. Amazing how virtually every song of there's and AIC, scriptured his destruction yet nothing was done about it. Waste.
