He fucked up the chords near the end of Hotel Cal...and the singing was weak for both tracks, not like Chris to fuck it up - but sure der ya go no ones perfect...
I love the way he changes the phrasing of the vocals in his covers, he's one of the few artists that could pull off a cover album if he wanted to (imho of course).
Damn I hate all the negative comments about the Eagles cover! He isnt doin Karaoke and tryin to match the exact song. He is making it his own with his beautiful voice and unique and amazing talent!
love his version of hotel california.and i actually like the change of direction from 4:00 .mistake or no mistake.ive played it myself like he does and it adds a different vibe.thats chir cornell for you .love it
Damn....he can take any girls panties off with that voice....and singing that song like that....chicks don't have a chance. Hell i'm a guy and just listening to him sing like that gives me chills.
His voice is everything. When he plays covers, those musics appears to be created by him.I just wish that someday we can have in brazil a singer as good as him.
gotta love how he drastically changes covers and even his own songs and makes them something entirely new sounding and awesome. whether it's intentional or not; I don't care cause it's bliss.
@sblopez08 Yea dude, he has such great dynamics and range in his voice. By far one of my biggest, if not the biggest, influences on my style and tone of lyrics for my songs.
CC is INCREDIBLE. hope all who see this or any of his stuff realize you're seeing a genius, rub 2 steel bars together and top it w blueberries. that's his voice. amazing! Searching w my good eye closed & killing birds are the best songs ever. titty-fuck-ice-cream.
Like in like a stone, the only thing he could do is maybe not to trail off at the end of most the words and make the words sounds more solid! Still, I love his voice, it's so unique. I love like a stone!
I am a fan of chris and his music. but if you are doing a remake please learn the lyrics. please dont get me wrong he sounds great here but come on chris; you are better then this!
@soundgarden114 I know right.. it's so sweet. It's so cute to see someone like him being so soft..you should see his twitter. I just got to know about it. He doesn't seem like someone who would tweet, but his tweets are really candid
Why does everyone think Chris Cornell ruins all the covers he touches? It's called a cover for a reason... you put your own spin on it. Billie Jean was amazing slowed down, and so is Hotel California BECAUSE he thought about his OWN version, not just copying the original. Obviously in comparison to the originals not better, but different and amazing!

@alliexirish The only covers I've heard him do I didn't like is Soundgarden's Come Together, the bass riff doesn't work for guitar, and Redemption song doesn't work if you aren't Jamaican.
@alliexirish I agree on this one, he changed it so damn hard. Don't fck with the original composition, you can make it your own here and there. But not the whole thing.
@GetnFunky I know I am really late on the comment back, and neither of us probably really care too much about this anymore lol. I just feel that, what the hell is the point to other people covering music, if it is going to sound exactly the same? I'm not going to listen to a cover, to hear the same song I can hear from the original artist/band. We might as well not have covers at all, if we are only going to change them here and there. I like original covers, not the same but changed slightly.
@GetnFunky It's like, when Bauhaus covered David Bowie's 'Ziggy Stardust', they didn't change it up as much as Chris Cornell changed up 'Hotel California' but they sped it up at bit, and completely changed the way it sounded with the instruments, and vocals. When David Bowie heard it, he said that it was BETTER THAN HIS ORIGINAL. This is coming from the guy who wrote the song, telling another band, that he liked how different the cover was. Anyway, that's just my personal opinion on covers.
Personally never liked the Eagles, but I LOVE CC and he could make me love any song. He flirts with his wife while he's singing.............lucky woman.
@patogala Gracias x responderMe refería a que al tomar en cuenta las bandas actuales nadie logra superar el impresionante rango vocal q tiene Cornell,al menos para mí. En los 90 habían muchas excelentes bandas y cantantes,Chris formó parte d 1 d ellas.Ahora no veo buenas voces en el Rock,ademas creo que él tendra 1 grancarrera x delante en este milenio.
wow... no offence to the cornellies here, but he didn't do this song justice... yea he is an amaazing singer, but I guess even great singers can have flaws.
@abluedeu An eagles version? You mean THE ORIGINAL right. Theres a fine line between remaking a song, and making your own just with the same lyrics. If you think about it that's technically plagiarizing if you think about it. I mean this is the guy who single handedly ruined BILLY JEAN.
