  • how do u explain Let Me Drown

  • cornell, you beautiful genius! 

  • #21 in my Breezy not Easy playlist. This guy goes on for awhile, top notch vocal abilities to actually sing that way. That's really wild stuff, still to this day. Like, you get into the vocals on Abbey Road (The Beatles)? I'd say this guy's career involves a lot of the better, stronger singing apparent there in Rock. Definitely a rocking track involving a lot of air and stuff, and it's difficult. Tubular.

  • keep it off my wave, now, y'hear?

  • Flannelette shirted croud surfer @ 0.54. Fack I miss them days!

  • @sethpin67 I WISH IT WAS 20 YEARS AGO....... now.

  • wonderful song!!! viva el grunge!!!!

  • not a surprise that this was such a huge album, "My wave", "Black hole sun", and "Spoonman" are perfect singles. Soundgarden were always great, but those songs introduced them to a much wider audience

  • Katie and I visiting El Paso and loving my rock station that I grew up with KLAQ 95.5. They still got it!! Every single time, and I'm not kidding, My Wave by Soundgarden is playing on the radio. I LOVE THIS SONG and the video is awesome!!!!! I could see this video all day long...Get off MY WAVE :)

  • 2:26 Its Flea in the audience! With blonde hair and a bandana. In the upper right corner!

  • im gonna do what i wanna do! get outta my way and off my wave! woohoo!

  • The best!

  • none of you know what a good rock riff is unless this is your favorite song

  • *right hand fist into the air* - this is from a sleep, lazy, live at home nasty too. dont forget it.

  • this is possibly the best rock song ive eve heard

  • sounds kinda like the lead singer of Audioslave

  • @Mr912Lancer hello....... are you for real ?.... is the pope the head of the Catholic church ?.... does it rain in winter ?.... if you piss into the wind will you get hit ?... YES he was the lead singer of Audioslave, Temple Of The Dog and he is the lead singer of the greatest band of all time SOUNDGARDEN.

  • @albetty100 alright mate, chill ya beans, no need to talk to me like that.

  • @Mr912Lancer lol , its b/c the lead singer of audioslave is the lead singer of soundgarden xD..

  • @dwelyn1234 I know

  • Soundgarden is the best grunge rock band of all times...i love Soundgarden...Superunknown the best grunge rock album in history

  • are they hispanic

  • @MrMrbobblehead I think Chris Cornell is mixed with a bunch of stuff and Kim Thayill is Indian.

  • they're baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaack

    :)

  • Come back to the greatest time ever... eat that jonas bitches, tokio motel, hannah bitchana and Justin babyer

  • awesome

  • Possibly my favorite song on Superunknown...

  • i miss this sound.

  • 420guitar I agree with the other bands but Bush and Silverchair?! Yuck...

  • Hahaha. Wah wah bass. Wahwahwah!

  • solid song

  • god i miss the 90's.

  • The wave is alive, well, and breathing in 2010. Welcome back, SG, we hardly knew ye.

  • chris is fucking hottttttt!!!

  • A Blast From The Past Man !

    Now Get Off My Wave ~

  • Comment removed

  • they are getting back together,hell yeah.

  • how edgy remember the 90's resurge please

  • THIS SONG ROCKS

  • great song! super easy to play in standard tuning too.

  • superunknown is fuckin mint.

    every track is different.

    every track is cool.

  • I remember reading the first Rolling Stone interview of Soundgarden, and I may have mentioned this here already, but whoever it was interviewing said he got to the house for the interview and the band was on the front porch drinking Bud tall-boys (16ouncers). And he says that's fitting because Soundgarden is a tall-boy band. I thought that was a good description. They have a bit more to offer than most other bands.

  • Hey I know, lets just blame Todd McFarlane!

  • As for Jane's Addiction, I'll always love Nothing's Shocking, I'll always be indifferent to Strays. Its basically not even the same band anymore. Yes, the early to mid 90's were pretty awesome... but also, those people are still around and if they want to tarnish their old images, go right ahead...or, you can just wait until you *know* the songs are as good...write your album, then listen again and ask yourself: is this really just a big pile of shit, or is it on par with Badmotorfinger.

  • The great thing about being in a band is that its yours to ruin if you so choose. I mean, great they went out sounding good, but if they want to come back and get Timbaland to produce their new album and do duets with JT, go the fuck ahead. I mean, I almost can't even listen to NIN anymore because of where his career went, but oh well. Like...Wait... on second thought, maybe they shouldn't reform. :)

  • with a 1/2 twist quarter pie

  • Soundgarden is just a brilliant band all together.them getting back together i know sounds great .But sometimes its just better when left alone.Janes addiction getting back and making and album,just didn't feel the same for me.I know 90's music just can't be touched the way it used too.The X gen.was the greatest for me and all in the range of 28 to 39.sorry if I stereo typed ages.

  • @mck160 I agree with you on both points, Down on the Upside was pure brilliance, it was the best way for the band to end it, finish on top, burn out and not fade away.. A big part of me doesn't want them to reform, just to stay in my mind the way they were in '97 when they hung up the guitars and went on their own roads

  • On january 1 2010 cornell alluded to a soundgarden reunion via twitter writing: 'The 12 year break is over and school is back in session. sign up now, knights of the Soundtable ride again!" THAT'S RIGHT BABY THE KINGS OF STONER ROCK BACK IN ACTION!!!!!!!

  • Free beer yea !

  • W soundgarden!! W 5/4!!

  • soundgarden forever.

  • @danielbowlin9

    i was about to give you a thumb up (and more' if i could...) but accidently clicked the thub down:\

    i'm sure you'll understand:]

    great song, cornell's voice is one of a kind.

  • That's ok it's the thought that counts friend !

    yer cool !

  • thayil´s beer at the end : P

  • Matt Cameron has to be one of the most underrated drummers of all time, he's definitely up with Danny Carey and John Bonham.ridiculous sense of timing. The whole band really is underrated. And especially Down On The Upside, it's jsut as good as Superunknown.

  • i completely agree...cameron is amazing and soundgarden never gets the apprectiation they truly deserve....

  • what a fucking riff !!! the bass line, everything...

  • Great 5\4 riff.

    It doesn't even feel like a odd time sig.

    Good stuff!

  • @wardrum80 That's fucking Soundgarden for ya.

  • I think this song has humour n a great bass line

  • The wonky bass and the overlapping guitars are great (not to mention the drums).

  • I just love the chorus

  • kick ass man, love it, thank god they getting back together

  • peace everyone

  • oh man ! Thanx Kim Thayil

    you have the magic touch

    peace be to you bro

  • I had no idea they got/are getting back together, thats amazing! After my longhorns lose the National championship, its nice to have some good news lol

  • Let me set everyone straight. The tuning is 6. E 5.  E flat 4. B flat 3. B sharp 2. B 1. B flat and that is how it was recorded.

    Your Welcome!! Jason

  • i very happy who the band return

    i miss these classics song who become to be the athems of my generation

    '' black hole sun '' , '' feel on black days '' , '' my wave'' , ''rusty cage ''' , '' outhsined ''

    LARGA VIDA A LOS 90 S CARAXO !

  • Chris you got my Blessings (as i'm Buddhist) to playing back together again with the BAND

  • Haha...I like it! I miss Soundgarden so much!! Peace and happy listening! :)

  • don't you worry...they' are back ;) it's the first good news of 2010!

  • Yeah I was so psyched when I head they were doing the reunion!! Spectacular!

  • Soundgarden reunion - best news that will happen all year.

  • yeah dude its amazing

  • You deserve more than a thumbs up...i had to reply and say I AGREE....Ha. School is Back In Session.

  • @6shadow6lord6 ya. i just hope they havent changed their sound to some radio friendly bullshit. STP's new song Between the Lines is exactly that!

  • @AL3Xmotodude Eh, STP were always pretty radio-friendly anyway (although in a good way). Soundgarden haven't even mentioned new music yet - I figure they're just gonna do the whole tour thing first and then we can wait.

  • @6shadow6lord6 ya STP was pretty radio friendly, but in their own way. you know what i mean? This new song sounds so much like the rest of this new "rock" going on these days... with barely any feeling or energy, atleast in IMO

  • @6shadow6lord6 all decade

  • @6shadow6lord6 Amen to that. I just heard it today on the radio and the best shocking news I ever heard since the downfall of music 2005! Pearl Jam, Alice in Chains, Stone Temple Pilots, and now Soundgarden. God Bless them all.

  • what tuning?! a tab website says its in EEBBBB

  • yeah i think thats right, that's the random tuning chris' fender whatsit is in so i guess you just go along and see how it goes.

  • grunge!

  • great group, this song is exeptional, they showed many times they are 1000 times better and original than some others over rated collegues.

  • Soundgarden=BEST!! This is yet another example of their awesome sound! One of the best bands ever in my opinion!!

  • forsure man one of the greatest bands of all time

  • Love this song! Chris Cornell's has a great rock voice, which I feel is vastly underused in his latest endeavors. I tried to like his new stuff, but I'm so underwhelmed by it. I wish he would go back to a harder sound. I miss the intensity of his voice in his earlier years!

  • some Audioslave stuff is pretty freakin awesome, but now Audioslave is broken up and I know what you mean. most of his recent stuff just doesn't compare to the old music.

  • Comment removed

  • best lyrics in my mind!

  • Soundgarden: Extremely underrated band.

  • i hear you on that one man

  • love it! soundgarden... the best.

  • you can tell this had to be chris's riff cuz alot of audioslave sounds like ''My Wave''

  • Not enough bands like them these days.

  • Correction: Not any bands like them! Excluding any bands that Chris Cornell has been in!

  • not any bands like them

  • Soundgarden got me through the 90's... Chris Cornell was and still is my biggest crush!

  • his words still help me get thru my days and his voice thru my nights lol I love everything he's done-even Scream.

  • @mimosastar705 you and me both!!

  • This the song that made music a big thing in my life. I remember going through my dad's CD's looking for some music to listen to when i was 7. I just couldn't stop listening to them. Can't believe that was 11 years ago.

  • love this song!! they are known for there heavy riffs!!!

  • awesome song!!! And really, Chris Cornell is so fuckin hot!!!!

  • 2:10 to 2:22 best fuckin part!!! I get chills every damn time of that, so fuckin sick.

    Definetly one of the best songs by SG.

  • I know man!!! thats what made me want a wha-pedal for my bass.

  • Comment removed

  • If you guys are always looking for new good music like I am, then check out a band called Black Market Radio. They definitely need more recognition. The lead singer is actually Chris Cornell's older brother. You can definitely hear some soundgarden influence. Check out the tracks Better Than A Killer, Gone Ten, Big Stones, Good Riddance, Warned You, Wave, Attic Light, and Suicide Parlour. Another band I'm really digging right now is A Perfect Circle.

  • I hate the Jonas Brothers and boy band relations to todays music. That was like the Spice Girls of the 90's. Nobody listens to the Jonas Brothers except10 year old girls anyway. Think about it, Soundgarden was hardly even famous back then, there's plenty of good music today if you know where to look.

  • if it helps u breathe...

  • if it make you slepp : )

  • Hey guys, please come visit a Soundgarden forum I started:

    soundgarden.yuku

    for discussions / chat with other SG fans.

    note: web address does not include w w w, only h t t p

  • is it the offical ?

  • Awesome song

  • Soundgarden - Natural Thing

    =

    UFO - Natural Thing

  • Gotta love those wierd time signatures. My wave, Fell on black days, outshined etc

  • Exactly. I can usually follow them, but this song really throws me off.

  • the whole album is unbelievably great

    I used to listen to it walking home through the woods in the middle of the night after work when I was 16. It's forever etched in my brain.....

  • It's actually 5/4 not 5/5 :P

  • The concert parts for this video was filmed in Edmonton, I was at the concert!

  • this song gets me hyped. fucking love soundgarden since high school. fucking timeless. 5/5.

  • What happened to the music industry ? I feel sorry for the bad kids of today, who frew up on Britney Spears and the Jonas Brothers. Nothing for them to really sink thier teeth into.

  • I'm not defending Britany Spears or the Jonas Brothers in anyway, but I'm sure your parents thought the same thing back when you were a kid. Besides most kids don't like that, it definatley not "cool" to come walking into school with a fucking Joans Brothers t-shirt.

  • I think bad music always existed. In the 90s they had Spice Girls and Backstreet Boys, today we have Hannah Montana and the Jonas Brothers. But while bad music comes and goes, good music lasts.

  • So lucky i got into music hardcore in this year this album kills anything out this past decade

  • Matt Cameron is great for Pearl Jam because both are fucking awesome!!

  • Great Song! Perfect For Today! NIMBY! Not In My Back Yard!

  • Are you kidding me??? Matt Cameron was too good for PJ, and they know it

  • Chris Cornell has a freakin' way with words!! I love it! LOL

  • Chris Cornell, no one sings like you anymore.

  • Not even him, sadly.......

  • If it sets you free

  • grungetastic superunknown in my opinion was the best ablum of the grenge era

  • what a monumental album that was. fucking awesome

  • all right

  • take if u wanna slice... 2 much awesomeness in 1 song

  • great drummer

  • yea matt cameron gets a lot of shit cause he's apparently not good enough for Pearl Jam but I like him. In this song my favorite ending of a measure is at 1:14

  • incredible

  • Awesome song in it's semplicity

  • i love this song

  • Fuckin awesome! my favourite Soundgarden song :)... See there needs to be a resurgence of hard hitting guitar orientated rock... all modern rock music is either too metal or too overproduced with poor lyrics and generic edited vocals so all modern bands sound the same... we need something better.. like this :d

  • Im right with you dude! I discovered a really good hard rock band out of northeast pa. there called dirty rotten liars, and the stuff is just hard hittin rock, i found em on myspace check em out

  • orite thanks man! Always good to find decent bands.

  • dude, check out a band called Black Market Radio. I was just told about them not too long ago and they are really solid. The vocalist is Chris Cornell's brother. You can definitely hear some soundgarden influence. Give them a chance. Some songs to check out are Better Than A Killer, Big Stones, Wave, Warned You, Attic Light, Good Riddance, and Gone Ten.

  • "Save it, just keep it off my wave - YEAH!"

    It could ruin the great memories if they reform though.

  • soundgarden are supposed to be re-forming next year.....i hope so !

  • yeah but i hope they don't do what stp did last summer break up again in a month.

  • Fantastic!!

  • Not goin to happen though. Early 90s was a special time for music in general.

  • fn right

  • Great message, good vibe, Couldn't of said it better myself. You see with your mind not your eyes.

  • Where has this kind of music gone? Screw the rappers, screw the halfnaked women (Or atleast, put them in the rock vids aswell!) and screw the god damn misinterpretation of music today! Bring back the legends!

  • hell yeah brother!

  • when you said screw half naked women i was like, wait no NOOOOOO.... then you redeemed yourself lol

  • actually i take that back screw half naked women lol

  • this is timeless who gives a flying fcuk when

  • Yeah, I was born in september 1990 :-) Grunge rules
