I Remember the first time I heard this song back in 2000, my dad and I had just paid bail for my cousin and we had to go pick him up from the slammer, when we got there I stayed in the car while my dad went inside to get him so its been a minute and I turn up the radio this Jam was playing and at about 37 seconds in to the song my dad and my cousin walked out looking bad as HELL! I tripped out and said to myself "I'll definitely remember this day"
im so proud if layne he went so far with this song!!! i cant beleive how high he went and thats pretty high i should know i take music lessons and have learned a few of their songs
they are my fav band seriously i cant listen to anyone else it just anoys me to hear people singing about girls and shit like that but AIC always had something important to sing about!!!!!! they are and always will be my fav band!!!!!
This song, is most definitely my favorite from Alice in Chains. Couldn't relate any more to Layne's lyrics he's wrote then in this song. Great octaves and falsettos. Layne, you live everyday in my heart man. R.I.P
@sik18 I agree, friend. Philip could've made a great contribution to AIC, post-Layne. But either way, noone can fix what's broken. They're will never be another Layne Staley.
my g/ bought me alice in chains facelift as a joke.....and thank you very much its been number 1 since and alwayz....my 1st tattoo is inspired by aic......peace mfr
Great fuckin song. AIC sounds like a 90's seattle version of Black Sabbath Led Zeppelin hybrid. They can back up there great musicianship with great lyrics, which can be hard to figure out at first. That's a great fuckin chorus too
Laynes voice commanded your attention.... I rember when I was 14 or 15 when they were on the clash of the titans tour with Slayer in 91 -92.....I was into the heavier shit then...not knowing what to expect .....he one the crowd over yet at first they were not warmly recieved .....tom araya came out foe a encore for the song Dam ThAT rIVER.......TO SAY THE LEAST i WAS SOLD ON AIC SINCE
Layne's voice is fucking all around great. His singing that he puts all of his emotions into, his screams, his falsetto, even that goat sound he uses in Godsmack... Fucking nothin but class baby!
Their music shoves its hand into your soul and holds on tightly. You can't help being immersed in their songs. I love every song they've ever released. I listened to their music a lot while I was off to war, and it helped me find some solidarity and appreciate the harsh reality of what was going on over there. No other band even comes close. R.I.P. Layne!
Guess i listen 20 years to AIC - and just open one more beer. Why is everyone so pathetic with Lane. Enjoy - and take it as a god rocksong. Live is meaningless, so is Lane, me and You. Cheeers

my friend said alice in chains was emo....what do you think happened to him? thats right, laynes ghost strangled him until his throat looked like a 2 inch wide pipe HAHAHA!
When it just takes off at 2:02 I'm left in shivers for the remainder of the song.
I just listened to it properly today, and I'm completely hooked. This has been the case with about ten other AiC songs before this. Unbelievable band.
I Can't Remember Is Probably Layne's Greatest Song Vocally As He Is Able To Sing One The hardest Notes (Falseto) To hit as A Singer The Fact That Layne Staley Had The abitlity to Hit A Falseto note at 2:18-2:20 and then again At 2:53-2:55 Is Something you are only born with You Are truly missed Layne everytime i listen to AIC This is the 1st song I Listen too. Great song Greater band Greatest Singer.
i heard this song for the first time 2 day and loved it. im a big aic fan. thus shit is great. i smoked a fatty to this song and its one of my faves. R.I.P. layne
Ya, I knew from the get go that DuVall bitch was no good. He just looks like he's a nice guy and doesn't have that sinister side like Layne had, Layne Staley's voice can be mimicked, and I'm sure there's someone out there who has his voice down to a pin point, but his personality, and overall vibe can't be replaced ever. He was a very unique person, and unfortunately drugs made Layne Staley, Layne Staley, and without the drugs a lot of AIC's songs never would've been recorded. Sad fact. RIP.
i think phil anselmo should have stayed with AIC like, permanently, because at least he had this kind of dark side in his writing/singing, like "Dirt" stuff.....this black guy, whats his name, Duvall or something, hes way too innocent for AIC
@fckrocknroll Yeah, Phil sang for them at the Rock Honors for Heart on VH1 Classic, and then again at the Seattle benefit concert for Layne, along with Maynard Keenan and Wes Scantlin.
they dont have any new stuff with the new guy.but they're supposed to release an album with him soon...i aint expecting anything great though i dont like this new guy,cant match layne in anyway.
Agreed ...=( ... miss layne he's become kinda idol for me concerning musical aspects .... think we all miss music like this today, lets do our best for a "good music revival" X_X greetin everyone !!! DAN
Holy shit..I can't stop listening to this! Lately I have been more addicted to Alice in chains than I have before.. I literally can go listen to this song for straight 6 hours or more!Thanks for posting this up man!
not rly. Metal wise i like iron maiden and thrash bands like slayer, testament and (old) metallica. iam very open minded with music unless its some over comercial unoriginal shit. nether the less. black sabbath are a very good band. imo AIC are the the best becuase they sound soooo unique.
Unfucking believable.......Greatness.
