  • Cornell writes so well, with such catchy yet somber melodies

  • 236 likes, and 0 dislikes. That's truely amazing.

  • LOVE it! It's nice when someone you listened to as a kid is still going so many years later and Chris has one of my favorite voices

  • I don't think there was a single bad song on this album.

  • Wow! Such a beatiful song,thanks Chris!

  • and fag says that Kurt the voice... take this T_T fuckin awsome 

  • @MFBueno63 and for the record, Cornell can sing above b4 with his chest voice (most apparent in Audioslave (though notes above B4 are rare in Audioslave era, there still are a few of them), but he sounds very raspy. AND, Paul McCartney is a tenor, and he has a full A1 :)

  • the best chris cornell album

  • I wish he had worked with Eleven again before Natasha died. Big loss! This was a magical collaboration. Whole damn album is stunning. Never get tired of it.

  • que buen tema la ctm.

  • such a tonal...striking...Awesome!!!

  • Chris Cornell makes my soul smile. : )

  • This could have made DOWN ON THE UPSIDE so easily..

  • Classic god damn

  • @MFBueno63 But he CAN sing a B4, right? Doesn't that count him in as a tenor? Or is someone range based on what they can sing in their normal/chest voice?

  • @omegalen Cornell can sing a full G5, that DOES NOT make him a tenor. A voice type depends on the 'comfortable zone', the ease of singing high/low. Cornell is a pretty dark baritone (dark, but not particularly low), but he very commonly gets mistaken by a tenor because of his high note, switching (from full voice to falsetto) and chest and falsetto voice mixing techniques. Listen to beyond the wheel or head injury to hear how dark he sounds

  • @Lawldudz He sings Beyond The Wheel in head voice, and practically every Soundgarden song. Sometimes he uses a subtle switch to falsetto, but that's not very common. But yeah i get it, his a baritone.

  • @omegalen head voice=/=mixed voice (which is what Cornell does)

    by Beyond the Wheel I mean the intro, where he comfortably sings D2s and a fry G#1.

  • @MFBueno63 He is a Heldentenor, a tenor that can hit the baritone range, google it.

  • Actually, how high someone sings is not what makes them a tenor (lots of baritones can sing high notes). It's more the ease in which they produce the notes and the lack of low range. Chris Cornell is a baritone because, although he can sing high, he can also sing very low -- which a tenor cannot. A baritone sax can play many of the same high notes as a tenor sax, but a tenor sax cannot play as low as a bari. A person is not a tenor if they can sing below a tenor's range.

  • I think this album is chris at his best....and I hope much more to follow.a master at his craft 2nd to no one.

  • Cornell uses major, minor, dissonant, and suspended chords in progressions that are compelling but emotionally ambivalent - New Wave was like this at times, mixed feelings being evoked - CC is unique, actually, especially with his powerful anguished tenor voice

  • I always thought this song was about passionate, unbridled sex.

  • I have loved this since it came out. This is one of those albums where you seek a little refuge sometimes, just like Temple was in it's own rite (and for it's time)

  • And the media champions, idealizes, and parades Rebecca Black and Justin Bieber. Sometimes, I feel the world is fucking backwards.

    Chris Cornell is nothing short of splendid. Provoking and deep on every level.

  • I'd very much like to know who thought the studio treatment of this album through. I mean: who turned a couple of acustic ballads into these rich musical tracks??? All those harmonies, the set of instrument which is perfect for each lyric, the ambiences. Damn good stuff!

  • Masterpiec, this song and the entire album.

  • this has to be my favourite chris cornell solo song.

  • FLAWLESS!

  • changed my life this album. so under rated

  • @baschabry this album was criminally underated at the time and barely noticed,it sucks that the only single from it was the worst one

  • what a great song!!! and the album is fucking incredible!!!!

  • @baschabry you can really hear the eleven influence on this one

  • so great!!!

    

  • This song is sooo hot! Cornell is so talented.

  • which of chris's solo albums is the best? This? I love love love his voice so much, but I just can't get into the heavier rock ones in Soundgarden and Audioslave. I prefer his more mellow songs, and seems like this album has them.

  • @MissusFingerBottom try listening to Mind Riot by Soundgarden :D

  • @toddlikeschirscornel my comment was posted 2 months ago..guess what I love Soundgarden now haha, just needed a few listen. Thanks for the suggestion though! I haven't listened to that song.

  • @MissusFingerBottom thats awesome! i'm glad you love them now. i can now sleep easy, some people preach the word of the bible, but i teach the word of Soundgarden.

  • @toddlikeschirscornel - It's an honorable mission; I am so happy for MissusFingerBottom. Good work

  • Great CD. He will probably always be underrated, although "we" all love all of his songs. The strongest voice in rock. 

  • this album did blow me away, this song writing quality which i normally don't expect nowadays was fantastic. reminds me on one of my all time favorite albums of the beatles "the white album" in song writing quality, superb! Almost each song is a perl.

  • @maddiko

    i totally agree. this album is also one of my personal favourites, but i think my favourite "cornell album" is temple of the dog. :) or down on the upside...

  • @Dandees

    I could agree with you there, the guy had a lot on his mind when he wrote those.

  • @Dandees Dandelion, Audioslave

  • @maddiko absolutly true!

  • @maddiko Alain Johaness wrote these songs for the most part.

  • @maddiko nowa days? its like 11 years old man. its takes a junkie with love to write a good epic album

  • @dbaw010783 I don't think that Chris was a junkie. He had an eating disorder and was an alcoholic back in Soundgarden days.

  • My favorite song ever! thnx for posting this ;-)

  • Why didn't he make a record like this, although i haven't heard the Scream album yet, I've heard alot of negative comments, but one of my all time fave vocalist!!

  • Mayybe my favourite song ever <3

  • Awesome. Chris has some of the best lyrics.

  • Excelent song!! It has my favourite drummer on it Mr. Josh Freese!!! Chris Fucking rules!!!

  • This is my favorite Chris Cornell song (excluding Soundgarden, ToTD, and Audioslave) this is the only real song that shows off his voice. (Solo)

  • excelente!

  • Crazy, only word for it!!

  • Yes, well, I guess that's why we can call this a gem. ;)

  • Mighty! Love the song, love the album, love Chris!

  • cornell + eleven= rock's

  • steel rain, for those that really appreciate the melodic voice of chris cornell

  • excellent sond dude, thanks for sharing ! sweet rock song and the most fucking powerful voice !
