  • @lxa9466 Thanks for this.

  • Comment removed

  • @lxa9466  Appreciate!

  • Incredible, simply the best, I cant help get nostalgic when I see a video of him, my true american idol. Long life Alice in Chains, keep on the great music to tribute Layne.

  • <3

  • עליו השלום May he rest in peace

  • This is so beautiful. Wonderful tribute to an amazing guy!! RIP Layne <3

  • I am furious they say best friend but he was found 2weeks later wtf left to die alone so sad my goodness i loved him heart felt my sweet

  • i do listen to a lot of diffrent music dead/wsp/phish killers/ and more, but i saw aic 16 times and it was sickjust sayin to the haters layne was a great vocallll

  • what is the name of the song?? please someone sy me

  • @paulettemedia8 Mad season - river of deceit

  • my pain is self-chosen at least i believe to be.beautiful

  • Alice In Chains is everything to me!

    And I fucking hate him and Mike..cause they are dead!

    Hate a fucking life taking drugs..

  • 0:36 the sentence and his face are priceless .. always loved Layne's voice !! He was so cute and sensible, just look in his eyes ... Just a misunderstood kid ...

  • He looks so healthy in a few of those photos,specially the one at 2 mins an the one right after.The one at 3.14 with the smirk on his face he kind of looks like Tom Hardy for second,Bane from the new Batman.Top singer

  • @dontcrytomebaby. Angrychair was a song about hallucinogens.. Not heroin, are even an addict? You don't sound like one.. What I was saying is that when someone uses to the point of death, it's from depression not the addiction.. The addiction becomes a tool of the depression.. But I just wanted to clarify what I was trying to say, not to argue with you, I never thought about song placement having any significance. Good pointe

  • "And uh, again, he's my best friend in the world." That didn't make me cry at all.

  • It is so coincidental, My Best Friend, My SOULMATE was born April 5th 1969! He was murdered outside a club here in Denver, Nov 17,1996, he owed money for a " Heroin " addiction! He was clean for 3months, but the dealers found him and killed him! I have never missed a day not thinking about him. Drugs are " BAD " news! Much Love To C.R. Smith & To Layne Staley! Also Mike Starr You Tried, I Love You:) Carey McKay

  • Also some sad news within the same band! Mike Starr the bass player terrific guitarist and one of Layne's bestfriend died this past March, I had watched him on Celebrity Rehab! He was just lost, Gone without his friend, he felt he had caused his passing! Layne's Mother Nancy showed up at graduation day for the show, and Mike was so moved he kept asking for forgiveness! They both were crying heavily, she asked mike " Did You See Him Die" ? He said " NO "! I Loved Him Nancy! It was so Touching:(

  • unfortunatly april 5th is my birthday. first kurt, then Layne, then my own grandfather. god bless all three.

  • notice how the 2 greatest singers that i know, Kurt Cobain and Layne Staley died on the SAME DAY? different year obviously..creepy huh?

  • good point there 80 first the man takes the drugs then the drugs take the man.

  • What I'm about to say is going to piss off a lot of people but i watch every video on you tube pertaining to Layne (he is my favorite vocalist of all time), and so many people say how horrible drugs are.. Layne loved drugs, if you don't believe me listen to "Junkhead". It was depression that killed him just like Kurt, I don't see people posting "I hate shotguns" on Cobain's videos...

  • @80mgstreetpharm Layne didn't love drugs. There is a reason why Angry Chair was placed after Junkhead on the Dirt album. It was to show how naive someone can be with drugs (Junkhead), and then show the negative impact they have on you (Angry Chair). He was telling a story, and even if he liked them at first, it doesn't mean he kept doing them to get high. He even said that in one of his last interviews.

  • 2. 56 . . . layne looks like jesus

  • ''And again... he's my best friend in the world''

  • Comment removed

  • may angels wing you to your final resting.

  • Just the look on his face with Gary Busey, priceless. Lord we would love to have our Layne back,so please watch, comfort, and protect him, because we miss him so. Until we meet again someday God-bless.

  • :'( but layne's voice makes it :')...cantrell, ur lucky to have the bestest friend in the world-the bestest person ..staley forever

  • ele era muiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii­iiiiiiito foda

    

  • River of deciet by mad season

  • He left the best of him, i can't be more greatful! and also he teached us that drugs are the most horrible thing in the world.

    Thank you Layne! It's all i can say! Love you a lot!

  • Layne you are sadly missed! I hope you are with Jesus!

  • @9173Kevin Sadly i dont think so....but you never knoe

  • i remember seeing that picture on rolling stone after he died. 5:30

    

  • Absolutely beautiful tribute video. Was that Gary Busey at 3:28 ?

  • @Fredthelog no it was brad pit

  • nice tribute and awesome song.. Laaaaaayneee come back! O_O

  • I always loved Layne's awesome VOICE, Rest in Love with Demri Parrott

  • RIP Layne Staley. 

  • Great PictureS!!! This Song brings back memories,tears,Too much loss! "LAYNE,MISS YOUR INTENSITY!" Frank Zappa said,"A remorseless young Musician's career starts off like a kiss,..and follows like a curse."

  • This is so good, thank you for making it!

  • heusker my brother took his life in november sorry to hear about yours, i understand your pain

  • Wow. This was beautifully done and I've never seen most of the pictures you used.

  • what?? he died the same day Kurt Cobain and in Seattle--so weird...i read they were buddies too. feels like that myth of musicians dying at 27. RIP

  • What a waste of talent, one of a kind voice

  • one of my favorites, how can you blame God for being selfish

  • heusker I am so sorry for your loss. I lost my brother in Feb 2002. Two days after my b-day

  • dude im 14 years old.. i just learned about laynes music about 1 year ago and fell deeply in love with it, now here i am cryin bout his death man.... i wish i had a chance to live durin his time man :(

  • His pain is self-chosen....

  • Hedied exactly 8 years after kurt did.

  • @1Sifting on the same day

  • @Babyface6200 Thats kinda creepy dontcha think???

  • Comment removed

  • what's the name of the song? :))

  • @megakoko123 river of deceit by mad season the last band that layne was in

  • Toll, yes, great.... The beauty of music is that someone has his opinion, but i hate people that listen to music or see videos just because someone is dead, what kind of shit! The first time that i listened the nirvana's unplugged i didn' t know that the lead singer, cobain was dead, but this music was so awesome...., then when i knew the history of nirvana i said: What a sin!! For kurt and layne... rip both

  • Layne Staley and Kurt Cobain died on the same date :(

  • Awesome upload!!

  • Best singer in the world

  • @tzum77 Well, not really. I know that`s what people have to say on a video with a dead artist. :P

  • @MrSatanochio No, i understand that you don' t know me of course, but in my opinion the voice of layne is the best, i don' t care if he died, was much better if Man In The Box were singed with him and not duvall, if you like music and rock music you'll understand that someone has his "personally best" voice in the world. That voice for me is the voice of We Die Young and the dead of layne letf empty and bare the music... So if for you layne was not the best who is in your opinion?

  • @tzum77 It`s like the best drummer. There is no such thing. Don`t get me wrong, Staley is awesome ! One of the best voices. I don`t really focus on the voice, because i listen to a lot of bands like Isis and post rock. If i was to pick a voice from the grunge scene, i would say Layne Staley and Eddie Vedder. But my favorite is Maynard from Tool. Not just in Tool, but also his other projects.

  • Mad Season=lets try and keep Layne sober.....I wish it worked

  • what a waste of an amazing talent, drugs suck

  • @JacksonPearl81 Some say his talent came from the drugs

  • @slapnutssometing nah, music comes from the soul. heroin just shortened his life.

  • Comment removed

  • this video is beautiful...THANKS so much to the uploader....epic and classy :)

  • Soon they will be making a doco on him, they already chewed out morrison and cobain.

  • I really enjoy singing along w/this guy....I love his harmony.....

  • This is what heroin can do to you

  • @truedisciple7 :) Thanks friend. . . I mean friends! Good to hear. . . :)

  • Thanks!

  • One of his best songs! Its tragic that he couldn't spend more time with Mad Season.

    I also can't believe he died on the same day as Kurt Cobain!! Two insane people lost on the same day. Mind boggling.

  • the only direction heroin pulls u is down till your down as far as u can go 6 feet

  • heroin is self chosen misery after all that pleasure stay clear of that shit

  • nice video layne was best vocalist ever imoo

  • thank you...great video, despite all the sadness...

  • Awesome video and great tribute to Layne. Man we could really use you right now. Music has gone to shit! Your talent is a huge loss. Thank you for what you have left us. No one has even come close.

  • just my opinion but i think layne staley is the greatest vocalist that ever lived. rip

  • Watching this makes me want to cry :( We miss you Layne RIP

  • @lxa9466 hey wheredgu find the picture at 4:40 ??!!

  • one of the greatest singer of rock history!!!!

  • this is idolatry, byt we cannot help it,,, amazing voice,,, amazing songs... amazing band....beatiful guy....cant help it... it´s hypnotic

  • this make me cry

  • Very beautiful video... Thank You for posting it !

  • Thanks for posting ! Great pics

  • omfg beautiful tribute man really well made perfect song and pics.you did an awesome job:) rip layne

  • People honestly don't know what they r missing. Layne Staley had 1 of the best voices in metal. Along with other great talents like Dimebag Darrell, Kurt Cobain, Cliff Burton, Randy Rhodes, and too many others all of this modern day crap people call "music" will never compare!

  • Layne Staley's last interview: "Don't try to contact any AIC (Alice in Chains) members. They are not my friends."

  • whats the first song? holy shit! its beautiful i must learn it on guitar please help:D

  • @uhokstupid River of Deceit by Mad Season lol. Its in the description. Beautiful song

  • you uploaded this the day after my brother died

  • @heusker I'm sorry to hear about that. RIP

  • @lxa9466 thanks, i appreciate that

  • @heusker lol

  • @DancingMedicineMan not funny fucker

  • @heusker true... Its Fuckin HILARIOUS. Hahaha what did he die of? XD

  • @DancingMedicineMan What did he die of? Why would I tell you, so you can troll some more and try to piss off someone who lives 20,000 miles away from you? He was worth more than that.

  • @heusker but now he is sucking the devils gigantic schlong Pray for him SON the fucker is doomed

  • @heusker Real sorry about your brother man. May he rest in paradise.

  • @heusker Layne died on my birthday. Worst birthday ever for me. Kurt Cobain also died on my birthday. :/

  • DAMN TEARFUL THAT HE DIED!!!

  • I lose sleep over these videos. It's not really time lost though. I'll do it again tomorrow night and I won't regret it.

  • Awesome tribute. Thank you for putting this together. RIP Layne!

  • Beautiful

    

  • This guy was one of the best vocalists i have ever heard!

    I was having problems in my later high school years and i'm sure his lyrical highs and lows helped me get through, we lost Layne but i am hear partly because of him. I never met him but i really miss him!

    All the best to all of you.

  • I love Layne. And i love the way he matured as a musician. During facelift he had long hair was into his heavy metal. He seemed like he was into music but he was one of those metal bands. Then on Alice in Chains (and even on segments of Dirt and Jar of Flies) you could tell he'd matured. Shame in you, Over Now, nothin' song ect ect. they'd never be on an album like Facelift! And even here with Mad season. The songs became a lot more personal and less about the hardest rockin track on the record

  • Thanks. That was sweet! Where did you come across this song?

  • @joadfa1967 It's River of Deceit, by Mad Season.

    Good song.

  • nice one bro,that was awesome

  • That was beautiful, man. Made me fuckin cry. But I love remembering Layne. He is the voice from the soundtrack of my life, as I imagine he is for many boys and girls from my generation. He gave his soul to us through his music and his voice, and his legacy will be forever alive as long as we listen and feel him. AIC forever. Peace.

  • Beautiful beautiful beautiful!

  • Beautiful.

  • Absolutely amazing. Layne has inspired me so much. I look up to him and I play my music as a tripute to his life and the light he left. I can't believe he knew Gary Busy. Thank you very much for making this he will be remembered.

  • @MrSplattycakes "I cant believe he knew Gay Busy."LMAO. Im pretty sure he knew more cooler people that.* sigh. That was funny.

  • Fantastic collection of moments,from the innocent early mid 80's to the seasoned much learned professional.Really great song from "Above",I ve never been much of a Mike McCready fan but,this strat playing is great[I always secretly thought "every time I heard a Pearl Jam song Guitar solo.....MAN!!! I can do better than that!!![I probably can...still]But this is an excellent "Tribute" to possibly Rocks GREATEST EVER Vocalist.

  • i miss u, i love you, i'm sorry... r.i.p. mr. staley

  • Layne was one of a kind. There will never be a voice as his, ever. Nice job.

  • i wish i could torture the man that invented heroin and stole a beautiful soul such as this one...

  • @lxa9466 dude im no sentimental guy but i have to say that was really touching and special and a beautiful song you laid the video against. im 20 years old and a musician myself and layne was always.....is my biggest influence. i would have neveer started writing or playing my music publiclly if not for his work. its nice to know folks like you are out there and understand the pain struggle and passion of music like this. whoever you are im sure your one cool dude. thanx again 4 posting
