  • Layne, Hoon, both Buckleys, Kurt... all dead... At least there's Lanegan and Cantrell left, so music is not quite dead yet :)

  • Heard this song hundred times.... still making me goosebumps on me back and tears coming out from me eyes ........love it

  • One of my favorites song in the world fucking layne you rock

  • Just a man with a compelling voice and very good accompaniment. That's all it was, that's all it needs to be. Don't idolize. Anyone.

  • tribe giriyorum dinleyince arkadaş

  • This is harrowing, scary and chilling. Simply amazing!!

  • I just want to thank grunge for bringing back minor keys.

  • Lost inside my sick head...

  • Long live Layne In our hearts and ears !

  • Incredible vocals and guitar work. Nuff said.

  • 124 people dislike this 'cause they just know Hate and no Love

  • Love .. Love this song. Layne was and always will be THE BEST singer IMHO. The harmonizing was always a pleasure to listen to. Timeless music that will always put a smile on my face, whenever I hear it.

    RIP Layne and Mike!!

  • UPHILL! Heh, uphill. Good answer.

  • UPHILLL!!!!

  • WTF???123 DISLIKES? F*** OFF

  • FAT!

  • WHAT A VOICE ! Rest in peace Layne Staley <3

  • jerry is so young O.o

  • Wow. Wow. I mean, wow.

  • @ 5:46 jerry lookin over at mike like GOD DAMN

  • god damn it

  • its like a du et wth lane and jerrys guitar

  • dont forget ... jerry cantrell playin that bad ass guitar

  • gallina de piel, chicken of skin xD

  • Love Layne. Love AIC. Love Seattle. Love it!

  • Oh my God! His voice is sooo... I don't know words that could desribe it! It's wonderful and it takes my mind to banned places... and things. Oh God!

  • Where can I get a DVD of this concert? Most live recordings are CRAP off of phones this is excellent!

  • @78rrum78 ha ha, cell phones werent really out at that time lol, plus, all they did was make phone calls. That is funny. Really though, I have a friend from Montana that was at that show and he gave me a video cassette copy of it to me to watch in like '93 or '94. I doubt that it exsist on DVD unless someone like this person ripped it to digital. If you notice there is a little ripple at the bottom of the screen and a slight warble in the audio track. That is more than likely from vhs

  • Credit to Jerry for the riff. Fucking bad ass.

  • It's GRUNGETASTIC

  • so grungy. love that grunge.

  • Uphill...in both directions. ;p

  • I would go back in time for Layne. I'd go gay for him too, but that's another story.

  • THE definition of Grunge.

  • @trumpt2 - Actually, just FYI, AIC get VERY pissy when you describe their music as grunge. They hate that. Jerry Cantrell sounds off on it all the time...

  • How can one recover from this? This is it, the real deal, MUSIC with a capital midfinger pointed skywards... I've known this song for 21 years now, and every time, every single effing time, it strikes that deeply buried inner chord that no one else can strike and leaves me shaking with primal emotions... Forever grateful.

  • @MiredAlien yep.... live, studio,... or even, sometimes, someone's shitty 'cover'.....

    Forever grateful. This song, and so many others on Facelift & Dirt.... will forever strike the same 'chords' within me, as well.

    The first time he.... "YEAAAAHHHHHH....!!!! LOVE, HATE...."s (about 5:24.... and THANK YOU, JERRY TOO!!!!), sends the same chills down my spine it did 20+ years ago.

    Just awesome... and timeless to me in every way.

    Man... he SO nailed the vocals this night. RIP, Layne.

  • Fuck 50 cent

  • Jerry was and will always be the band. Layne was a guy that had one of the best voices ever in rock and roll and fucking squandered it. Ya he was the front man but, Jerry is always the guy who fuckn made and still makes it work. Hail Alice!

  • @Brided23 I'm sorry but that band would never have done anything good without Layne. He did squander his talent because of a drug problem.. but Jerry was not , is not and will never be the band..... The original line up was the best.. I won't even listen to Jerry's solo stuff or to the new AIC. I refuse... and you are out of your mind if you think Layne wasn't the band.. ANY musician can play a guitar the way jerry did.. his vocals were ok.. but Layne was it!

  • and furthermore, the new AIC is no better than any other bullshit, alternative band on the radio.. When Layne was with them it was original, amazing and beautiful. Now, they are just radio friendly hacks and a disgrace to what the band used to be..

  • this band will never be the same without Layne and Mike, dont know how Jerry can even go on in a band without them

  • much love

  • This is beyond perfect. I listen to AIC, Nirvana, Radiohead, Depeche Mode, Pearl Jam, Pantera, and so on, and I can easily say, this is the most awesome song ever made.

    LOVE , HATE, LOVE

  • His voice is just damn amazing!

  • "lost inside my sick head..." how can you not love that? These fucking sobriety test to post a goddamn comment is the lamest shit fuck! What happened to freedom of speech!! We have to be tested to speak now! Fucking stupid!

  • damn such a great track. The good o days!

  • everyone

  • is there anybody else out there who is completely infactuated with this fucking band? anyone?

  • @philspear24 I got a demo of Man in the box a few months before Facelift was originally released back in the day, I have since that day loved this band with all of my musical soul.. until Layne was out and then so was I. But for the stuff with Layne, I will always love it... I'm with ya! :)

  • *angel

    

  • layne staley is a fucking god in human flesh with the voice of an agel on dope!

  • Layne & Mike. we miss you guys, we miss you a lot!

  • This song isn't for everyone.I sent it to many people.Their reaction was something like ,,You are crazy.'' My answer was:''You must to have brain and emotions to feel this song.''

  • this is the meaning of perfect. :-)

  • all i can say is awesome

  • Looking up Alice in Chains in the dictionary and i got PERFECTION......

  • Who wishes now they could just jump into their computer screen.....................

  • All I can say is... 5:22 ... damn...

  • Uuuuppppp hhhiiiilllll lol

  • It's insane he sounds this good live - it sounds like the track...sure it's live?

  • On the 121 dislikes, I would like to hear 1 comment on how the fuk u could dislike this song.Its not possible.Im willing to listen with an open mind,cauz I would really like to no.Are your ears not hearing wat mine are.This is incredible even after the 20 years ive been listening to it.When is Jerry gonna relese this on DVD.

  • UPHILL!!!!

  • Seriously, the best voice ever. He had the best voice control I've ever seen. It's sad we don't have anyone like him around today. I still think it's funny that he started out a drummer then decided to switch to a vocalist. Thank god he make that decision or we would have never heard that epic voice of his.

  • @hoodmatix I also think It's funny that he's the youngest in the group and when they played bars (he was under 21) he had to stay outside until the band went on.

  • @hoodmatix Kinda like David Grohl :D

  • @hoodmatix Although he might still be alive if he wasn't the singer.

  • @stewedbob Worth it.

  • this must be the best live performance by any band EVER after seeing this so many times i still asking myself how is it even possibly for somebody to be that good nobody will ever touch rip layne staley

  • SO beautiful....the song as well as Layne Staley. This is definitely one of the best songs ever! This era is Layne at his most powerful and beautiful!

  • man this is pure gold, I got no words to describe what this song makes me feel

  • Comment removed

  • just stop with the jews saying rape a retard or catholics are gonna take turns on you... I mean fuck you I go 5 years single before I find a girl for a year. leave mollesting neck brace jews raping retards silent.

  • Fuck Layne!!! why you died!! i hate you!! Your voice was the voice of our soul!!

  • @tttttt104 Dude, he had a problem get over it and enjoy what gave us.

  • I had this live version on the B-side of an AIC single. In my opinion, this is the best live version of any song ever recorded. Layne's vocals are so strong, it's unreal. It's as if he's not even trying to hit the high notes. He just does it perfectly. Effortlessly. He was born to sing these songs.

    It still amazes me all these years later how someone's voice can go from such a haunting soft sound to such a powerful cry to the heavens. Truly awesome.

    What a tragic loss his death was. RIP.

  • <--- Progressive/Ambient/Post-rock band that likes AiC! album up, feel free to listen. sounds like tool/aic/isis etc

  • This is just....wow,words can't explain <3

  • uphill!! GOOD ANSWER!

  • i typed in love hate love and 50 cent came up... i almost shot the computer screen

  • @falconsfootball23 i would have immediately poured gas on the screen & set it on fire, lol

  • @falconsfootball23 you're funny...

  • @falconsfootball23 Lol. 50 cent is the reason why typed in ''love hate love''

  • @falconsfootball23 you can't kill 50 cent with a gun, remember that loooooool

  • @xXJaDxXx LMAO!!!!

  • @falconsfootball23 Be sure to shoot it at least 9 times so you have a chance at finally killing the bastard.

  • The best band from the 90's

  • Alice is the Shizzznick!

  • /watch?v=D-Fuhhm1-nY

    Thumbs up and supporte some young bands ;DD

  • @LAURENZLAURENZLAUREN your so funny lol

  • more 120 people like emo songs!

  • 'Lost inside my sick head

    I live for you, but I'm not alive

    Take my hands before I kill

    I still love you, but I still burn'

    -Layne Staley, the best vocalist of all time or the best poet of all time?

  • @ba773r1na in my opinion, he was the best vocalist ever, his voice was so diverse & had so much range, unlike anyone else i've ever heard in my entire life.

  • @Perniciousdeeds You're so right. His voice was just unbelievable. It was hoarse and gentle at the same time. Τhe timbre he had was awesome and together with the range, as you said, it was all insane. I haven't heard anyone else sing like that, too. But also the lyrics in this song are, in my onpinion the second best I ever heard (after 'Hey You' by Pink Floyd). No to mention Man In The Box, Angry Chair etc. Talking about tons of talent.

  • @Perniciousdeeds Saying he was the best vocalist ever is pretty crazy but he was so awesome there is no reason to even compare him to others. That kind of badassness deserves to be respected and not even challenged. BTW, Cornell has a slightly better rock voice and scream. Never ignore Dickinson either.

  • @blainecowling Cornell was a tenor. His voice was naturally higher. Layne was a baritone. So I guess Cornell does have a better scream, but it's not neccesarily because he was a better vocalist.....either way no need to compare....like you said, their both bad ass.

  • @blainecowling its not crazy, its my opinion, & Staley's voice had way more range than Cornell's & thats not an opinion, thats a fact. Cornell is great though.

  • R you decided yet?

  • LOVE HATE LOVE OH YEAH!!!!!!

  • Top 5 bands all time.

  • minha preferida deles

  • Jesus christ, this is fuckin' good. Superb even.

  • grugne is not a genre. it's distorted heavily guitars..it's not a genre. grunge is an attitude

  • @srekazinskas I agree. Grunge was a call to rebel. It is similiar to what punk music was for its time.

  • when did this live happen ? .... I mean when exactly in the 90s ?

  • @vasilisgrg It is from a VHS released in 1991 called LIVE FACELIFT. It has 5 tracks--Man in the Box, Real Thing, Love Hate Love, Sea of Sorrow and Bleed the Freak, plus videos for We Die Young, Man in the Box, and Sea of Sorrow.

  • i hate christmas music

  • IS THERE ANY MORE PREFORMACES FROM THIS NIGHT?

  • @mikesandytoes Yes. A few. Man in the box, bleed the freak, it aint like that, sea of sorrow...

  • All. The drugs and sorrow

  • im gonna blast this now before we open the gifts! time to play some REAL music.

    Miss u Layne

  • I was fortunate enough to see them twice with Layne. Such a waste of talent. He is and always will be the alice in chains vocalist. Despite them being my fave band of all time, i have to admit they are better in the studio.

  • Layne Staley, one of a kind, thank you for the rockin pleasure you've given

  • Good music

  • I would kill to be a teen in the 90s. i am incredibly jealous of anyone who got the chance to see these guys when they were actually Alice in Chains.

  • Though gn'r is my fav band Layne>>>Axl.

    R.I.P Layne,my fav aic song,amzing lyrics and what a vocal performance.

  • Layne is my hero. The best vocalist ever. I miss him every day

  • it used to be for the music man

  • best voice ever.

  • I used to walk six miles barefoot in the snow, but then I took an arrow to the knee.

    Layne RIP <3

  • God Layne is one sexy mo fo with that caveman hair.

  • Hey, I play in a new British band, Sweet Ether. We get told we sound very chains-influenced so if you like this and you have a couple of minutes, please give us a listen! On facebook /sweetether Booking a european tour for next summer, need all the interest we can get! Thanks for your time :D

  • @museken what are you talking about

  • el vocalista ya murió?????

  • Top those vocals you new music pussies!

  • Wow...

  • a 7:17 minute orgasm

  • This next song... Is about pain lol. Decent AIC song though

  • @chiknzrule99 that's because the song is about pain...

  • Fantastic performance by Layne,sounds like the drummer needs to turn his strainer on

  • 5:20...

  • alice in chains is so...well their...indescribable

  • This is such perfection.

  •  Best one ever, painful! it's about pain..

  • I hear Guns, then I hear this, and I ask myself why Slash was the better known one.

  • @thundara32

    " I hear Guns, then I hear this, and I ask myself? why Slash was the better known one. "

    Axl Rose called Chris Cornell *the greatest rock singer alive*. Listen to Slaves And Bulldozers, and you'll know why.

    Soundgarden - Slaves & Bulldozers

    watch?v=AEM-1kKcg7g

  • @tigerone1970 It doesn't really relate to my comment, but yeah. Nice song.

    Also, my comment had correct grammar, no need to change it. :P

  • @thundara32

    I wasn't trying to correct your grammar, the question mark is just some extra fomatting my aging browser put in. :)

    If I would rank the best grunge singers/performances, this would be #2, and Slaves And Bulldozers would be #1.

  • MEOOOO TEMAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA CONCHETUMARE

    ONE OF THE BEST SONGS ;)

  • the grunge is not dead

  • @zamoram23 i'm so sorry to inform you but most grunge has now been replaced by shitty post-grunge aswell as all that mainstream shit being spewed out of the asses of emotionless "artists" that are hyped up by the mainstream media. i weep for the world.

  • my twisted passion to be your world <3 lost inside my sick head i live for you but im not alive!!

  • what a voice !!

  • love them sosososo much!!

  • Layne's talent unmatched to this day, love the energy and soul he put into his vocals.Love this song!!!

  • 5:20 - 5:50 one of the greatest moments in music?

  • Im making a hard choice, this or Rain when I die for my Funeral. Either way the greatest singer of all time will be there in more then one way. The greatest band of all time without a doubt. I went to 9 concerts and will never see them again the way I did then. "If not for the music then there would never be happiness in the world". So take that you Amish Fucks!!!

  • @firegodjon1 itl either be nutshell or down in a hole for my funeral

  • Hah Lane lived in Kirkland,i dated his sister,he didnt walk no six miles lol.

  • I love it how there are so many likes. that the dislikes don't even show on the bar.

  • How can there really be 120 dislikes?! This performance is EPIC! The guy pours his SOUL into that mic. ~shivers~

  • I miss the 90's so much, I really do.

  • @sandylovesaplle fuck you, miss AIC

  • This song is just fantastic 

  • When Sean and Jerry die......There is no more hope for music

  • @TheDivNiv That is what you think, pathetic dumbfuck. Go play the guitar or something.

  • @bloodydjole Im saying there would be no Alice In Chains because there the only 2 origional band members left and then we are left with ands like A7x.

    A7x=Shit

  • @TheDivNiv And I'm saying that you can't see anything from AIC (and A7x). Go make your own music, maybe it can be better than AIC.

  • DAT voice!

  • Layne's voice in this gives me chills everytime

  • This song never gets old.

  • THE BEST EVER!!!!!

  • Don't make fun of me... I just found this band... I was so sad when I found out he died!

  • @imsochill98 congrats because you found it, that is the important stuff =)

  • this band was sososo underrated. everyone had such a hardon for guns n roses that they completely ignored the fact that Layne was such a superior vocalist and Jerry's guitar work was so ridiculously perfect. Not to mention that he is an excellent singer too. The harmonies and the darkness just fill you up. Love this shit sooooo much. Probably my fave AIC song of all time. When i die i want to sing a duet with him.

  • @larahill82 this song is awsome.i will admit i listen to more rap then anything but i still love this song and most of my friends hate it becuase it is so dark and depressing but it seems to fill this spot in me and tells a story that i wouldnt be able to tell by myself,i litened to this song when me and my girl broke up i was with her for 5 years and still loved her when i found out she cheated on me ya thats sum bitch shit on my part but it makes me feel good his voice and emotion is unreal

  • @larahill82 I love any performance where Layne belts out the vocals, this is a great example.

  • @larahill82 u just wrote down my own thoughts

  • that voice!!! stuns me!

  • layne in his prime. theres still life in his eyes in this video.
