Soundgarden - My Wave [Studio Version]

[CCRockit]

I have a dilemma...

See, i'm trying to pick my favorite soundgarden song, its either this one, My Wave, 4th of July, Black Rain or Slaves and Bulldozers.

[1776bricks]

@CCRockit I know what you mean. They're all pretty good songs. I mean, as far as kick-ass songs go, Soundgarden made several.

[kingrunnisfilms]

@CCRockit Just say Soundgarden is your favorite everything

[RestorationSlam]

This song is awesomes :D

[AtheistBuckeye]

Dat bass wah!! ಠ_ಠ

[rm7670]

kicked ass back then, and still does!

[dirtystephennwilson]

The most underrated song on this album

[OMGthatscrazy13]

love this song



[TheDutchHippie]

Anyone noticed this song is in 5/4? Not alot of songs go that way :)

[AmeriMick]

@TheDutchHippie Wow - the only other 5/4 time song I know of is the famous "Take Five"  by the Dave Brubek Quartet. Pretty amazing!

[TheDutchHippie]

@AmeriMick Yeah it's truly amazing, I won't come close to thinking of a 5/4 song

[mannedge]

@AmeriMick That is an amazing song! The only other that comes to my is Jethro Tull's "Living in the Past"

[scentless2apprentice]

@AmeriMick yea. soundgarden and dave brubek kick ass. 5/4!!!

[MDCSWildcats86]

@AmeriMick HOw about the "Mission: Impossible" theme?

[scentless2apprentice]

@TheDutchHippie listen to fives by guthrie govan. amazing song.

[tortoisehead30]

6 people can't find their own wave.

[sheshdd]

so many great memories

[radiomike151]

I heard that Chris was a top surfer in Seattle but Kurt Cobain stole his board

[youztuber5000]

@radiomike151 We don't get waves big enough to surf here in Seattle... OH!...was this a metaphor? I'm so thick..

[radiomike151]

@youztuber5000 As a former Green Laker I'd have to say I was trying for a little irony, but ultimately just humor.

[MrRedEspiritu]

@radiomike151 That's why Chris shows no sympathy for Kurt, and he doesn't show that extra respect most musicians do, which is perfectly fine.

Your comment "made my day."

[MaiandTY2011]

sorry rusty cage in on road rash sega saturn!

[gwm666]

I don't care if people have beliefs. I care when people misuse them. We are all free to think what we like and to live.

[mildpigeon]

Awesome song indeed, shame they recorded this one under water....or is that the quality of the upload ;)

[336kgf]

If you listen very carefully in the beginning you can hear the metronome keeping the beat for the guitar riff.

[CCRockit]

I got a better one...

2 people pissed on their gate and didn't save any.

[travo1969]

great song one of my favorites

[tintin4561]

you know they say the best thing to do after sex is have a cig but na soundgardens the best thing after sex

[rocknchickibabe]

Rock on...... \nn/ ......this is the bomb!

[MotionlessGhost886]

I love that this song is in 5/4 for most of it, first 5/4 rock song I've heard in a while!

[kyletheenigma]

@MotionlessGhost886 Vicarious by Tool... O.o

[captainmayhem88]

2 people don't have waves.

[TheWaffle35]

AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[fishnamedgary]

two people put stuff on his wave, and they were never heard from again....

[trapkit1]

No, it's not just you.He's an incredible singer. Unreal range.

[lulish1]

Guys . Arguing on the internet is like participating in the special olympics. Even if you do win, you're still a retarded

[WMackbd]

@lulish1

Gotta love your grammar. Helps make a point.

[cover821]

this song is from 1993. sounds awesome

[ILikeWafflz]

I want that snare. Mine sounds awful.

[OPMario]

lol, the last few minutes of this song tripped my out on mushrooms last night

[JoshBurlingame]

@OPMario Lol bullshit your just saying that to be cool you fuckin faggot

[max7leader]

This is in my lifeplaylist!

[jamstrat]

Man, I had great taste in music when I was 10.

[Bandhavgarh31]

Agree, Criss Cornell great voice, great talent, always seems to improve as he moves forward in his music!! Another all time favorite voice was Michael Hutchence, sadly gone. To me my they are some of my favorite so called "Alt Music" voices. A gift to enjoy.

[lightbikeking99]

pretty good song...

[Milkpool]

God, Matt Cameron, man. He makes ths song.

2:17 to 2:30 F'ing Awesome.

[gamesharks8912]

Justin Beiber disliked this.

[tighttritenight]

@gamesharks8912 For the love of god, stop it with the Justin Bieber comments. No one finds them entertaining

[gamesharks8912]

@tighttritenight sorry, i had to hahaha

[FuriousRoellinghoff]

Man... I remember hearing this song on the radio while playing Aladdin on the SNES set up in a store at the mall when I was like 10 and knowing how much ass it kicked even then.

[TheMontanto]

@FuriousRoellinghoff awesome story

[tighttritenight]

@FuriousRoellinghoff You pretty much just summed up the 90's...mall, Super Nintendo, and awesome music

[Unjamestaylorable]

so bad chris cornell ended up like the parody of himself.

[ryanireland187]

keep it off my thoughts, keep it off my business, mind ur own, ITS MY WAVE MY WAVE MY WAVE!!!

[AresCassell]

I just recently got Soundgarden's greatest hits CD "A-sides". A great album, but if it was a "greatest hits CD then why did they leave out "My Wave"?

[gospe1]

@AresCassell it happened to me too damn!!!

[maskedmonkey627]

its just great how people who know soundgarden love them and people who dont know them....dont know them what so ever.

[HenkkaNirvalica]

best ever :)

[federom18]

true music.

[FieroSerafino]

love it!

[rocknchickibabe]

Chris Cornell has the best voice I have ever heard, I love this song... Soundgarden ROCK \m/

[burtonsthebest]

so stoked they're re-united

[mistermicrosoft]

thats 2:22  Dave

[vivip02]

exelente tema de los 90 recontra power. saludos de Peru.

[FlurryJK2]

My favorite time to listen to soundgarden is when Im driving

[requiem4ameme]

@FlurryJK2 Same here! Soundgarden really is the ultimate roadtrip music...especially this song!

[schism206]

Reminds me of Endless Summer II :)

[otto3663]

that's my wave asshole -love Cornell

[poopmuncherz]

@otto3663 well kim thayil wrote this song

[michaeljamesmccabe]

Fucking awesome.

[radioWTF]

dont piss on my gate....AND KEEP IT OFF MY WAVE!

[Hodongji]

take is you wantpa paice

[JonP1961]

sweet outro. bass drum is right where it should be in the mix, when it's layin' down the groove.

[Helder1982]

verse is 5/4, very cool

[carlitos1214]

matt cameron kicks asses on this song

[ma369rtin]

one of there best and fastest songs

[mumpump]

@ma369rtin not as fast as 'Full on Kevins Mom' tho!

[ma369rtin]

very true

[ndrago15]

best grunge band ever

[ma369rtin]

YES!

[oneweeknew]

definitely my favorite singer

[lamarak]

hace falta mas que decir simplemente esta si es musica

[flyingvkusanagi]

"don't come over here and piss on my gate". brilliant.

[mz9393mz]

One of my all-time favorites. Cathartic song.

[dynamicDAVE519]

you dont even know what cathartic means

[mz9393mz]

In fact, I do. Do you?

[Sarasirk531]

badass song!

[dicktron08]

is it me of does chris cornell have one of the most amazing voices ever??

[mz9393mz]

yep.

[JORDANEast]

Personally he reminds me of Johnny Depp for some reason.

[ma369rtin]

hows that

[otto3663]

@dicktron08 my man it is not just you - he just might be the best -for what he does

[11joshman]

@dicktron08 eddie vedder is better

no offense

[Gamagachee]

@11joshman I think they're even lol.

[ickleberry]

@11joshman no he's not.

[11joshman]

@ickleberry I know I know.

[rocknchickibabe]

@dicktron08 Totally!!!

[EvaKKringen]

@dicktron08 Defenitivly not just you.. but I guess you got that figured one out right , I always though he was one of the best vocalists of all times !! :)

[javaman64]

@dicktron08 I will be amazed if another voice like this comes along in my lifetime. I've seen Robert Plant bring a crowd to a whisper just so they could hear every note that came out of his mouth. Chris Cornell is that good if not better.

[StupidSmartGuy]

@dicktron08

get rid of "one of" and make "voices" singular.

[Bandhavgarh31]

@StupidSmartGuy OK grammer teacher, proofread before you comment

[StupidSmartGuy]

@Bandhavgarh31

oh hi Irony, nice to meet you.

[swlabr21]

@dicktron08 He is right up their in my top 5.

[mimidec67]

@dicktron08 oh yes indeed he does. and he's easy on the eyes too. Bonus!

[Skyrift]

@dicktron08 Absolutely. Him, and Geoff Tate of Queensryche have the voices that all rock vocalists strive for.

[eruptionmat]

@Skyrift Not to mention the late great Ronnie James Dio.

[darrenblouin]

i will just remind you folks of the genesis of the 90's was both Metallica and her predosseosrs, and alll fun benine..music is and shall alwasy be a wonderful headache

[landmandlol]

No moron. The grunge/alternative scene spawned in Washington was a completely seperate music movement. Metallica owns dude. But they aren't the parents of all rock. It's only a headache to douchebags.

[lucaman1221]

favorite song

[anonymously1nspired]

hehehe when I was younger and was learning this song from a guitar world magazine I had a duh moment... when read the lyrics and noticed that it said "take if you want a slice"...up until that point I thought he sang Cake if you want a slice....ahhh the good ol days of being a retarded little kid...but I did learn the tune note for note pretty much and we jammed it in our cover band...and I ask my friend who was the singer to belt out Cake instead of Take..and he did everytime we played it

[jamerol]

I forgive you bro.

[blublaw]

i love soundgarden they rock and im from the same city

[vembermember]

men that can play there instruments!!!!  need I type anymore???? great song!!!!

[FergusonTO35]

Sadly, most "rock" bands nowadays don't have the ability to sing, play music, or write songs.

[davidreutz]

Great song!
