Chris Cornell - Billie jean (acoustic live)

[aghuz03]

puajjj horribleeeee 

[ohmah70]

Good Chris,but i would rather hear jesus christ pose....so glad you went back to soundgarden dude

[Overvaag1997]

MY COUSIN MADE THIS VIDEO! <3

[molattimore]

hated the original, love this, nuff said

[D22renteria]

Unbelievable 

[Vitaluv]

Best remake ever! As far as I'm concerned anyone who loves MJ should love this because above all things in music MJ respected creativity and originality. MJ and Chris cannnot be beat when it comes this song. They are both equal in parts perfection and MJ would be damn proud. I've been loving this version since it came out.

[MATGRANATE2]

cagaste la cancion :P

[MossyDrums27]

@themcleod123 It absolutely is not.

[66a7xfoREVer61]

I LOVE the original version of this song but it doesn't even BEGIN to compare with Chris Cornell's version, it's just TOO EPIC!!!

[TheMcleod123]

this guitar progression is stainds excess baggage

[ZhuriIsena]

Nice cover...  :)

[eqsmooth]

I think Chris loves the meaning of the lyrics and this is HIS version. He doesn't cares if he hurts his vocal chords. PERIOD. Genius.

[kiffixis]

best rock voices ever!

[reward116]

pretty cool Mitch!

[BarbaraGreer]

Amazing acoustic version righ there:

watch?v=xXRh5ne7xws

[JoeAndTheMusic]

This is Incredible but I promise you if you watch my cover of this you won't believe it :P

[Whitebird527]

Jackson lived enough.... to know that Chris upgraded one of his hits

[razzledazzle1369]

Zzsharka can suck it!!!! He sounds sexy as all hell. Bet you cant hit shit!

[Rakanmasoud]

shit you can't sing it like that billie jean is all about the charizma in it bad cover

[59summerset]

Disgrace to the original

[knightofzero1]

@59summerset you are a disgrace to the human race

[zzsharka]

@59summerset Chris cornell's voice used to be allot better than this, too many cigerettes and screaming for years. Used to be able to hit those notes with ease.

[Oineuz]

guys...where can i find this song live? like i want to watch the live video. thanks

[TheGirlmeetsGeek]

Haunting and magnificent. True Cornell fashion.

[ArseLoad0fMetal666]

pffft and some people think Michael Jackson could sing, next time i'mconfronted by one of those fucking Jackson 5 fanatics i'm gonna show them this.

[MisterTownsend]

@ArseLoad0fMetal666 you dont have to down play the Michael jackson because you perfer this version. I think he did a cover of this song because he respected Jackson's work. He wasnt trying to out do him or call him shit.

[scentless2apprentice]

@MisterTownsend yes. in fact, he probably covered it because, oh, idk, he likes mj maybe? i think so. people need to shut up

[MisterTownsend]

@scentless2apprentice dang right

[SvetlioPrice]

@ArseLoad0fMetal666 Michael Jackson was a magnificent singer! Don't let this "pop hate" thing blind you. He was called the king of pop for a reason! The level of professionalism in his productions is breathtaking.

[MegaTrivial]

"Think twice....?!!!" There is no thinking in Love.

[castrophist]

i liked him the first time i saw him......when he was called SOUNDGARDEN.

[WanderleiCornell]

@castrophist mmm pretty sure his name has always been chris

[kamalificationable]

i liked audioslave was best than now he is alone

[kush2199]

@Onepurtykitty you are a fcking nut faced bitch. This song sounded fckin better in MJs voice.

[Evann568]

brilliant rendition .. but no one does it like MJ.

[koretell]

Chris Cornell's voice is bewitchingly beautiful ,from very early soundgarden,to now.i questioned the rage/cornell stuff,also his solo records.but live is a treat,and a must see.he takes you to a state of calm and tranquility, to roaring /serious edge to it.Chris enters your sole with passion pesto-ed upon us by greats like paul Rodgers,Gillan,Davey pattison,but before you know it,he's in with the likes of Dio.Dickinson,Halford.

[AVIDEOGAL]

HOLY CRAP THIS GUY IS GOOD - HOW COME HE AIN'T FAMOUS YET ?

[liaddd11]

@AVIDEOGAL

HOW COME YOU ARE AN ASSHOLE

he is one of the most fameos artists in the grunge session

[warlord4254]

@liaddd11 not knowing that chris cornell is famous doesnt make that guy an asshole. you need to open your mind

[greencheapsk8]

@AVIDEOGAL He is the guy from Audioslave, so hes not exactly a household name, but hes not far off

[MrChillywilly1234]

@greencheapsk8 he was from Soundgarden before Audioslave so i think he is a household name. lol

[Onepurtykitty]

Yes, finally this song sounds good!!!

[metromdv]

I never cared for this song until now. Bad ass!

[TheChristChris]

Yo, Cornell.. It's movie scene, not movie screen!

[poopoopedoopify]

@TheChristChris Screen, scene, bean, Billie Jean, doesn't mean, gotta be, mean. Mean. I'm bad, etc.

[JayTj2]

horrible

[Felipecurtidor]

Best than the original version!

[mccinable25]

@Felipecurtidor dont get carried away,im a fan of him to.

[Overvaag1997]

my cousin <3

[Randomtask68]

Brilliant voice, but maybe this version is a bit too striped back, I think he should've just played full chords through the song

[datsun370z]

what i wouldnt give to be able to sing and play like this guy.

[isunnysmile]

This is okay but MJ's version is tons better. After all, MJ is a legend :)

[wanacoba]

This guy's capital F Fucking awesome! It sounds sadder this way but with those lyrics the message it's much better sent to the people.

[Stevonater5]

As far as the songs message goes. this tone suits it MUCH better

[ibelieveinbob]

So much better than the album version.

[drew081886]

This is unbelievable. Chris Cornell is a talented son of a bitch.

[hotloreno]

just it!!!

[MiniEwan]

Freaking awesome!

[pumaroger75]

Live conCert , with "C" I guess you mean...

[lilvinnyfufu]

This is what I like to refer to as good shit.

[smokeverbs]

I grew up on MJ, and no disrespect to the dead, but this ain't his song anymore. THIS is it. Well fucking done, Mr. Cornell. Damn!



[RBLangR]

freaking unbelievable

[baggedout81]

WOW!!!

[mariobro11]

two words, fucking amazing

[SiriusMined]

Wow

[chill87336]

Heard him on Howard stern today, I'm a new fan. Great talent and great voice.

[stcywll]

@chill87336 Bababooey

[hoobool]

@chill87336 that is great.checkout Soundgarden's badmotorfinger,superunknown and Down on the upside albums or Audioslaves first album.If it is still online find Soundgarden at the Glasgow Barrowlands live in i think 95.I have it on cassette from the Barras market,I was there and wow! what a gig.

[gcgenerals22]

holy shit girl at 2:14

[1Foggia]

I'm going to set it straight, shut the fuck up all you haters, and I don't care if you like or dislike this song. You fucking cum guzzlers.

[bubbamittens]

@1Foggia Shaming straight women and gay men. How nice of you.

[Singsonggirl]

I heard the song playing in a pub and even though it was noisy i immediately was captured by the voice. Then I started listening to the lyrics. You should have seen my face when I realised it was Billie Jean :)

Perfect cover!

[loleatcrap25]

chris cornell is overated, unique voice but so what? his lyrics suck...."Wooomaan, you need me..." - lame ass lyrics yo

[TheNilesEdge]

@loleatcrap25 Alright.

[zabrak999]

@loleatcrap25 so are you an underage who never listened to his albums or what? You're a fucking idiot

[d07a]

@loleatcrap25 yes because lyrics are all about trying to work them out for thirty years and after the artist dies people coming up with answers that arent true

[chriscornelladdict]

@loleatcrap25 hey I'm a woman and I need him. Obviously you don't know what you're talking about.

[Audioslave3]

@loleatcrap25 What the fuck are you talking about??  And these aren't his lyrics.

[fitless]

....taking the song to another level, and so it becomes a masterpiece from a pop hit.

>>excellent<<

[wiseandclear]

@fitless it already was a masterpiece. In this version the song is kinda weighty with a new personal charm. The original, in my opinion is far more powerfull without having to do the undue voicebending. Glad to see however that a bit overrated artist like Chris is able to take Jacksons art to an audience that before this release turned his back on him and, in their misplaced and arrogant behaviour against everyting that seems commercial, overlooked the genious of it.

[wiseandclear]

@fitless no offense thow. I apreciate your rather elitist attitude, as misplaced as it may be, 'cause it atleast shows you like music and so do I.

[j0rge1000]

no mams desde q la escuche no eh dejado de escucharla

[MegaAmazingness101]

yukk

[tajulafham94]

this is good but not as good as mj

[nirok1813]

this song hurts my head every time it plays on the radio

[ad3686]

Best voice ever.

[dreletronik]

deep

[robertvandamjam]

The best voice in rock !

keep blasting those high's out Chris !

My inspiration in singing, you can check it on Youtube under All night thing or Peace love and understanding Robert.

Some say it rocks...

[chikuba0]

Worst Music Ever, You killed MJ

[lunasco23]

@chikuba0 Do you have any pair of ears still working? Michael Jackson's version 's awesome but the way Chris does it, that freaking goes to y'r bones man

[crusaderz2]

@chikuba0 /watch?v=BUfbLtZHrog is this better? ;)

[TheY7742]

@chikuba No, Chris didn't give him the drugs....

[RaejiKamazi]

Nothing else matters with Billy Jean

[sillybandsX420X]

this sucks dick.

[aidyspady999]

This is amazing

[GioufTixi]

μάλλον... όχι... σίγουρα καλύτερο από τ ορίτζιναλ!!!! μαγευτικό!

[WatsonEmmaVEVO]

RESPECT THE CLASSICS!

[Guerilla2089]

[jimimyhero]

Dislike.

[Perniciousdeeds]

@jimimyhero you must be a fudgepacker, right?

[jimimyhero]

@Perniciousdeeds Radiohead fan. Don't know what I'm doing here in the first place.

[Perniciousdeeds]

@jimimyhero Radiohead is gay

[jimimyhero]

@Perniciousdeeds So are cupcakes but not everyone eats cupcakes, horse-radish sauce.

[Perniciousdeeds]

@jimimyhero yeah huh, EVERYONE eats cupcakes.

[THEJAKEANATOR666]

@jimimyhero Then GTFO lol..

[sunnyahsan1]

@jimimyhero lol radiohead sucks

[jimimyhero]

@sunnyahsan1 Oh yeah :) They 'suck' in every aspect of sucking :)

This is what your telling me?

[Overvaag1997]

Hatt suksess med dinne videon her Oscar ;)

[MagnuMxAvengeR]

It sounds grungy... I LIKE.

[guiguis10]

nunca vi pior, coisa que Deus nao deveria ter criado... desonrou o pequeno michael

[xristosbrelok]

add me friends ( fans chris cornell )

[panjez]

Ummm.... No go for me. It's like a Metallica wannabe vocalist, singing a "Nothing Else Matters" alike version of Billie Jean.

[MrReed1432]

This version captures the emotion of the song and really tells a story. Excellent!

[boc1953]

Someone told me once "if you can't say something nice, don't say nothing at all"...so...I have nothing to say...

[tntanner1]

Very Haunting song done this way, major thumbs up Chris!!

[watchinshadows]

Feckin' superb!

[freedo1234567891011]

never heard this version ,,, i have to say its pretty awsome

[damnation0074]

Simply awesome song ( in this version ), loved it.

[baahbaah1]

absolutely fantastic amazing voice!!

[michke79]

fantastica voce

[TheEmptysevenclan]

a friend i work with at chilis told me about this... and it is spectacular....!

[FulgDeNeaJin]

Oare ce ar spune Michael? Probabil ar zice : multumesc frate..te descurci imi place cum suna! I love you more!!

[dwakeman1]

I'm a so-so fan of Michael Jackson...but i love Dirty Diana, and i liked Billie Jean really well... until I heard this cover. This is freaking fantastic! A whole new take on the original... makes the original just mediocre at best...

[krismarkham69]

Find me another rock singer with vocals as good as Chris's barring Eddie vedder of course... sounds even better through earphones

[Wormtail81]

Wow, this is quite something, is it not?

[Stratfan68]

Damn that was good!!!!!

[cutlass961]

Great cover!I didn't really like his cover of Seven Nation Army but he hit a home run with this.

[iFakezHD]

Gratz oscar! 5million views!

[muckejason]

It's an amazing album!!!

[orange44779]

Is that Chris Cornell wife in the silver dress, and are those children his children, i don't know much about Chris I just know him from Sound Garden

[morebeauty]

can you see why Michael would authorize this singer to do a version like this of this song? unless you-grumble-grumble-just hate riddles

[kiffixis]

great voice!!

[mrlambia123]

wow, awesome. Very powerful.

[Th2342000]

IDK HOW TO GET HIM MORE VIEWS, but my friend is a independant musician goes by the name level 8. the videos are on my youtube account if you like rock music that i think is pretty good.

[cedi3550]

1:34 I luv you!

1:40 Aaaaaaah! You turned into a man!

[xxxXHelderXxxx]

FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK WELLINGTON'S CONCERT SOLD OUT

[monotonelifestyle]

us white people like it when someone hits guitar strings really loud and fast then stops and starts singing again. works every time. In fact, the only thing we like more is the next time you do it.

[isunnysmile]

@monotonelifestyle not true.. in fact i'm white and i prefer Michael's version x100. Also I listen to black people all the time, there's only one white song on my iPod. Actually what you said doesn't appeal to me at all, i actually hate when there is guitar in songs (except for songs like Beat it and Dirty Diana). And no, i'm not even partailly black. So nice try, whites are not always listening to guitar...

[monotonelifestyle]

@isunnysmile way to establish yourself as a non-humoristic being. congrats.

[isunnysmile]

@monotonelifestyle i really don't understand what you're talkin bout, man..

[Woodypayload]

He could sing humpty dumpty sat on a wall and I would still listen to it!

[BadCrowd503o3]

you can never change the classics, you can however point out beautiful art by paying homage

[pedrocollares]

meh. stupid version...

[vickytube63]

Different... beauiful... strong!

[MrDonutley]

EPIC!!!



[Todoreev]

Just Cornell...no more no less

[musicmoney21]

CHRIS HOLLY lost track called "DON'T" now on youtube

[joselohualca]

Being honest, i like so much this version and i think Chris make it better this song

[ProFreedomForAll]

I have been listening to music for 50 years and I really enjoy your performance of this song...I am a new fan of yours as of today.

[soloistchris666]

hey guys i need honest criticism on my acoustic/vocal work, please dont be REALLY harsh but i need opinions to better myself as a musician, im originally a solo guitairst (Sweep picking) stuff like that but realized I need to write music, real music. Check it out! :) /watch?v=9Qxdm2q8ZEk (put the link after youtube)

[SCGumpster]

Concert* people geez.

[KirstieandMaks4ever]

kirstie alley sent me here via twitter

[mcbusy17]

Kirstie Alley sent me too...love this.

[HighNflY]

@mcbusy17 are you serious she probably has a crush on old chrissy boy

[Perniciousdeeds]

@KirstieandMaks4ever kirstie alley is a big fat whore

[Reconite]

There's a power and roughness to Cornells that David Cook can't even begin to compare to. I'm not saying David Cooks cover is bad, cause that's fucking great too. It's just that this voice... god it's so good.

[joel80760]

better than original....do you have a plan to do a concert in the philippines?

[laffedatyou]

sounds like what it could of sounded before the original.
