Corey, as always, does a great job with Nutshell. One of Layne's best songs and he does him justice. My next wish is to hear Maynard James Keenan cover it. Please?
Cut him some slack people he is covering a GOD!!! And on top of that prob one of the most emotional songs ever written (close 2nd to Laynes own "wake up" he did with mad season look that up). I was very impressed.. One of the better covers..
People that complain too much on unanimous well song and played cover songs, are the ones with severe mental problems,,, not only cannor perform, but idolatry is such a theme, that they cannot think about the possibility of a different tone, voice, arrangement, even I think they wish that for a good cover, you need to look like the original singer... people are realizing on youtube that haters exists but are being trashed as never before.... insanity has limits.
To everyone who says this is just a mediocre cover clearly doesn't understand what music is all about. He changes a couple of the lyrics, big fuckin' deal. It's not about having the cleanest guitar playing, it's not about having the lyrics down a tee, it's about the soul and the feel. And if you can't see that in this true musician you should probably switch over to what society listens to these days. You belong there.
he plays the whole song on his own, gets everything right but one lyrics which he slightly changed, probably without realizing, and you complain?
I think when you're playing a song you know, it comes automatically, so I don't think he was thinking about exactly which lyrics to say the whole time.
I admit this is a great cover, but I think this particular song was done a little better by Aaron Lewis. His vocal range is different. However Corey Taylor is incredibly talented (Check out Comfortably Numb fuckin' kills it)
I played this at my brother's service...It was the last song he heard me play. I since only play it when requested (by friends and family that know its sincerity to my heart).
This a great COVER. Can you imagine how hard it would be to come close to the original? Thumbs up for anyone who even attempts this song, let alone does a good job as Corey did.
OK, for the geniuses preaching how stupid people are for bickering. YOU ARE DOING THE SAME THING YOU DOLTS!!!! And as for this Corey Taylor thing, they should bury him, his voice sucks ass and wind!
@MrBassman153 OHHHHH! I forgot, it is not feasible AT ALL thousands of people, that allow the media to control their minds, would gather at an event.....NOT AT ALLL!!!!!
hes got such an amazing voice, either if hes fronting the powerhouse slipknot, or doing these little acoustic things. Thats true talent. No computer, auto-tune,or studio tweaking to get shit to sell. this is very scarse now a days to see true talent rising up like corey has accomplished.
I hate covers. But this is beautiful. Layne Staley and Corey Taylor are two of my favorite vocalists. So much pain and meaningful emotion in their voices.
if you think this is shit, youre bent. Its fucking mint and every over cover ive heard of this song is bollocks and no one captures the epicness of it, for example, the part where the lyrics are "if I cant be my own, id feel better dead" the guitar is supposed ring out for those lyrics, no one else does that, they carry on playing, corey played it perfectley, could fill in for layne if he wanted to.

@MichiganPride3132816 that is the most pointless comment I've seen. maybe the person simply does not like it. we all have our own tastes in music. calm down.
I have no idea why everyone's fighting over this. Seriously, Corey is just paying his tribute to AIC and Layne. There's nothing wrong with that. Both the original version and this cover are great. If you believe differently, that's your opinion. You don't need to make a huge deal about something that hardly matters.
this is the best thing happening ! corey taylor the moment's best singing artist of my opinion, singing a song of the 90's best vocal artist layne staley.. this is just so amazing .. i wish i knew those guys in person .. they both seem like good guys. \m/
theres no such thing as bad or good music, its just what you dig and what you dont dig, you dont dig rap leave it alone, you dont dig metal leave it alone, plain and simple
@stbreal It's more likely his interpretation of it. I ike how he added some of the bass notes into the progression. For a solo acoustic gig it makes it sound better.
LOL if you guys all knew how stupid you looked arguing over such trivial bullshit you would be surprised. The problem is that you're all so damn engrossed in your shitty attitudes that you think such mindless bullshit is actually normal. Hard to see the forest for the trees.
@localboyz I enjoy just the fact that bands of this generation can be inspired by such great bands like Alice in Chains. Corey's voice sounds great to
@XxAntisaintxX Once again stupid shit, go back to your parents' basement. Wow you are a normal person and you have intelligence? Hahahahahahaha That is a good one.I rather fuck up your mom really good.Go get your camera and film yourself shoving you mom's dildo up your ass. Stupid motherfucker.
@XxAntisaintxX And who the fuck are you stupid motherfucker, the defender of retarded cunts like yourself? Go back to your parents' basement and try to get a fucking while you are at it. Stupid motherfucker with no life.

Definitely better than Aaron Lewis's cover.
