No one can complain knowing about why his voice gets so easily exhausted, if you want his voice before his heavy smoking and drinking watch soundgarden, you will understand why he is so great.
More shots of Timmy C would have made this video awesome and there would be no dislikes. Everyone loves bass!!! (especially me:)TIMMY C - BEST BASSIST EVER
Yeah, Chris is voice is frickin' blown here....He should have taken a week or two off..this is the kind of singing that can do permanent damage...just ask the Scorpion's Klaus Meine...he was able to recover after surgery to remove 'nodes' on his layrnx. Love your voice Chris, but rest yer pipes ple dude....
You know, people say Cornell was the reason this band was so popular but, quite honestly, I don't think the man could have sounded any worse here. Really.
@DiGiTaLdAzEDM Yeah, Chris was always kind of a studio singer, his studio recordings are incredible, but live he doesn't usually perform very well (well except his 2010-2011 songbook acoustic tour, he sounded INCREDIBLE and perfectly hit all the highs in a lot of Temple of the dog and Soundgarden tunes)
@DiGiTaLdAzEDM he seems to be having bad nights all the time, cos there's a live performance of Cochise in letterman I think... and he basically sucks..... he's a great singer but seems to me that he's only a great studio singer
hahah lol i totally agree with u with the lyrics of this song but i still like it and i also agree with the singing. if u can sing...fuck it go with it!! haha :)
Great song! His voice is very tired on a lot of the live Audioslave YouTube videos I've seen. I don't know the exact reason why. But his voice is top notch on his more current live stuff.
every one has good points on his voice being tired, maybe it could be because the way he screams and sings isn't natural. just think of how many other people sound like CC
Did Chris or the RATM guys ever explain why the bridges in Drown Me Slowly and Sound of a Gun were incredibly similar? Or why he borrowed lyrics from this song to use in Sound of a Gun?
eh, i jsut dont think he did all that good live during audioslave... i mean, yes his voice gets VERY tired and all, but the point remains. but NOW, hes kicking ass, lol.
i thought it was good, his voice was very hoarse here, but he can climb notes and belt out entire lyrical sentences while clinging on to a series of throat tearing yells Lol, not many people can still maintain Actual Pronunciation at that volume whaling that hard.
Have you guys ever heard this song before? he sounds pretty much exactly the same as the studio recording... I don't see how you guys are saying his voice is off in this other than it's a bit quiet... but that's mainly because the guitars are louder.
Because he was smoking, now its fully restored. Kind of like superman with kryptonite. Even at his weakest, singing his weakest album it completely rapes anything else you hear on the radio (aside from his other songs of course)
Tom Morello's solo is awesome...but lost in the mix is Timmy C's complimentary (and simultaneous) bass "solo." There's a quick look at his work during Tom's take off...Timmy's bass work is crucial to Audioslave's sound as well as RATM's sound...working in close synchronization with Wilk (in both bands) they provide the driving rhythmic structure Tom needs to explore that mind-bending skill on the guitar; that thick texture he cuts up with his guitar.
I always wonder why Tim, Brad, and Tom compliment Cornell and his vocal abilites so much, he isn't to bad in the studio or when he sings pop songs, but his voice isn't suited for rock.
I love it when you enraged RATM bastards get all gelous and stupid... you make me laugh, dude... FUCK YOU !!! :)) AUDIOSLAVE ROCKED !!! P.S. Chris's voice is starting to heal, so you can cry out all you want you looser !!!
