Another tribute. This time with "Black Gives Way to Blue" which is the song off of the new Alice in Chains album, "Black Gives Way to Blue", Jerry Cantrell wrote this song for the late Layne Staley, former vocalist of the band. Elton John plays piano in the song. Enjoy.

  • this video is great, can i put it on my facebook?

  • @MetalHeadFilipeG96 of course.

  • Rest in Peace Layne, 8 years today :(

  • Continued: I think this is why I am so obsessed with him. I too want 2 leave early. sick of life sometimes, but use to escape. I'm like Layne in other ways I noticd. I'm very open. its who i am & i expect ppl 2 understand & care cuz I dont judge. but most dont. they judge. i'm proud to be gifted & 2 b able 2 feel extremely deep. Makes happiness larger than life. but its a 2-way street..we feel pain much deeper too. I suspect you are one of those angels. thx 4 the great videos!! RIP our angel

  • I know Layne is watching over us, over me, over you. He wants to see you happy and healthy. Don't give up!

  • great video! warm drops of liquid fall from my face as I hear a song & see that beautiful man that I feel so connected with & it invites feelings which Ive tried to avoid & drown out with drugs for so many years of my life. I hate to feel!

    thank you for the video.

  • you're welcomed.

    keep your head up man!

  • @B3adCreative with you there man, i really miss that guy, and this song did put a lump in my throat. Can you believe it's gonna be 10 fuckin years in April? And then a couple of months after that it'll be 10 years since Dee Dee Ramone died too. Two of my biggest heros to this day.

  • Such a beautiful song for a friend, ride on Jerry. We will always remember Layne.
