Atreyu - Like A Stone

[@MetalClown1974]

Thanks, Atreyu, for covering a classic. Rest in peace, Chris Cornell and Chester Bennington.

My thoughts exactly!

[@mixinmike999]

You type like a woman that is a tumblr refugee. Start talking like a man instead of acting like a male guest star on a female show.

[@CzarTheAlchemist]

This song hits harder when you realize he's talking about Death and not somebody he loves

[@ChrisWilson-cg2zx]

That’s why it’s hits harder, knowing Chris was singing about it. Then sadly we lost it

[@colincrawford9208]

Even harder that it’s about longing for death through suicide.

[@WolfskeyComedy]

I like to think that Chris wrote it potentially about both love and death. And the idea of doing anything to end the pain this life unfortunately contained for him sadly making the end necessary. But he knows love is an eternal force that he’ll wait alone forever to have again.

[@Jarle1510]

And Show me how to live... Hardest riff in rock. Also lyricwise

[@abaddonb]

I never did make out what Cornell what was saying so this is the first time I've heard the lyrics. And yes, I had a similar reaction when I realized what he was singing about. It's one of those 'Ahh, ohhh, so that's what this song is about' moments.

[@jlambson82]

Like a Stone is one of the greatest rock songs ever, in my opinion.

[@Mereship]

So true❤

[@zamolxis214]

You're right, but not sung in this mood and with this voice. It's like a joke.

[@amychester1986]

This Hoosier concurs. WOW. I saw Soundgarden at Lalapoolsa in 1996. Just wish I could have seen Audioslave. Even better that Chris was still here. This remake is just fantastic. ❤

[@Eireman_on_Twitch]

I’m unable to hear this song and not sing it at full volume. Since the death of my son, Corporal Specialist L. McDermott, US Army National Guard, I admit I bawl my eyes out as I do. I intend to do a live cover of this at some time, but y’all hit the vocal key far better than my raspy metal chords will do. Thank you, and God Bless. May Chris Cornell be granted forgiveness of all his faults, and sing in the Heavenly Chorus forever. P.S. I’m recovering from a pierced colon, and it’s not a fun experience. I spend my days twisted by pain medication, but it has loosened my tongue, so to speak. I have the urge to save the world, because I’m so tired of everything being miserable. I love y’all, everyone why reads this, along with anyone who doesn’t! Peace!

[@JMSherrill1983]

I don't normally sign off on covers, especially covers of songs that have a deep meaning to me (the original version of this song got me through a very dark time in my life) but this cover is just immaculate in every sense of its being, thank Atreyu for covering this song.

[@maryssastukey9543]

This is EXACTLY my thoughts

[@TOXIK_Studios]

Lyrics: On a cobweb afternoon In a room full of emptiness By a freeway I confess I was lost in the pages Of a book full of death Reading how we'll die alone And if we're good, we'll lay to rest Anywhere we want to go In your house, I long to be Room by room, patiently I'll wait for you there Like a stone I'll wait for you there Alone And on my death bed I will pray To the gods and the angels Like a pagan to anyone Who will take me to heaven To a place I recall I was there so long ago The sky was bruised The wine was bled And there you led me on In your house, I long to be Room by room, patiently I'll wait for you there Like a stone I'll wait for you there Alone Alone And on I read Until the day was gone And I sat in regret Of all the things I've done For all that I've blessed And all that I've wronged In dreams until my death I will wander on In your house, I long to be Room by room, patiently I'll wait for you there Like a stone I'll wait for you there Alone Alone thank you for the perfect cover Atreyu!

[@eccentricJill]

Im in my 40s, so at first I saw this and got angry with a "HOW DARE YOU COVER THIS SONG" but i listened. Bravo. Chris Cornell would be proud. Youve really matured as a band. Im impressed ❤

[@jw3384]

😂

[@madmonty4761]

Fantastic cover. Covers by professional bands are usually a tribute so no anger is needed. You should watch Serj Tankian sing this with prophets of rage as well.

[@leaveittoweaver4525]

Chris Cornell was & will be one of my top 3 artists , losing really hit me deep. Bowie is another. When my little boy Keaton died in 03, one the way to his inurnment of his ashes a few weeks later, I Am the Highway came on the radio & I felt Keaton with me. Then everytime I heard it I knew it was his sign to tell me he's there. This song really spoke to me as well.. Years after he died someone sent me Chris' song "I Promise It's Not Goodbye" he wrote for a father who's little girl died after a long terminal illness similar to Keaton who was severe special needs & chronically ill his whole life. There is a lyric that goes "Bubba please don't cry.." which is what my oldest had always been called since Keaton was born, for Brother. My youngest did as well... so that song just touched my soul more than any other.. And it was Chris. Losing him is huge to the rock fans, or just music in general, & even more because I connected him to Keaton. So I think they did AMAZING covering this & honoring Chris. What an incredible tribute.

[@dudewag1993]

One of the best covers ever. Also one of the only calming songs that puts my son to sleep. Here's to you Brandon and Atreyu 🍻

[@glitchloading]

This is truly beautiful. Chris would have loved this. Atreyu still giving us the good shit over 20 years later and reminding us of the giants music was built on. Much love guys and thanks for keeping Chris alive

[@marcelinobailey7904]

Dude this is a near perfect cover of one of the songs that got me through my depressive days. Cornell would be so happy to hear this rendition.

[@Puddles4ETN]

This has been popping up constantly as one of the first suggestions on my KZbin main page for the past 24 hours and I eventually just thought "Fine, I'll check it out". Despite the title, I did not at all expect this to actually be a cover of one of my favorite Audioslave songs, much less one of the best covers I've heard of any song ever. Kudos to you Atreyu; you blew me away.

[@gotifan]

My son sent me this this morning. This is one of the best covers I have ever heard.

[@itz_premium]

Wow. RIP Chris.. what a beautiful cover and tribute. Glad to see Atreyu still slayin. Discovered them in Congregation of the Damned days... Just awesome.

[@82JBragg]

I first saw this and thought “no, don’t touch that”. I’m glad they did. Phenomenal cover and tribute. Almost brought me to tears. Edit* it did bring me to tears. Original was released when I was 20 and was a ballad for my young adulthood. Thank you, Atreyu.

[@HeathRS]

I've got to say my first thought seeing it as someone as not a regular Atreyu listener and a hardcore Chris Cornell fan was ballsy choice. Well done honestly. I'm impressed.

I was walking to the store listening to this and assessing the hurricane damage from Helena. I felt a calm and peace that I haven't felt in years...🤘🔥🤘

[@Seeking_Something_Spiritual]

Atreyu has been one of my favorite bands for a couple of decades now and I've had the pleasure of seeing them in concert a few times over the years with and without Alex. Most recently in Denver where Brandon was back on drums and vocals. They are perhaps one of the only bands I feel is just as strong without the original lead vocalist. I was so pleased that Brandon kept Atreyu going when Alex left, as he's such a great vocalist and entirely capable of leading this band. This cover has just solidified how incredibly talented he is and how much more Atreyu has to offer. This cover literally gave me chills and tears as he struck those iconic notes that Chris Cornell belted out in this song. What an absolutely beautiful rendition, guys. Bravo!

[@TheMedicinalMan]

Alex did not leave. He covered what happened in a video last year. The boys in Atreyu are scumbags.

[@lazzarus1978]

And the tears flow....RIP Chris.

[@Liamaraism]

Absolutely brilliant! I can't be the only one thinking Atreyu is SUCH an underrated band? Man. Brandon. You rock.

[@Alexandra-uk4vr]

Ikr? Ridiculously talented guys & supreme band to this day! I've loved them aince I was a teenager and I still do. Forever in our hearts ❤

[@Funkadizzleify]

I saw Thrice open for Atreyu, open for Deftones back in 2007 and Atreyu totally stole the show. They had this huge stage on hydraulic lifts with pyrotechnics and everything. I was insane. The drum kit lifted up to about 20ft off the stage and fireworks started firing off the back and Alex fucking jumped off the top after a big pause for the kick-off scream in Right Side of the Bed. Best show I've ever seen.

[@jamesadamgleason9471]

He's always been the secret sauce...And plays drums simultaneously. Absolute Beast

[@PositivelyPessimistic42]

Underrated? Maybe now, but they were a hot topic staple

[@vp5209]

Personally I would love to hear some punk-rock elements from the guys, like in the early years

[@BourbonHawk69]

Chris’ music meant a lot to me. Still does. One of the few celebrity losses that got to me emotionally. To hear the passion and feeling in this cover tells me these guys felt the same. This version tells its own story and that some true, deep connection to the listener. No easy task on a song you didn’t write. Truly amazing. I will admit, other than the name I know nothing of this band. That will change tonight. Well done. True masterpiece. Keep sharing the emotions through your music and I will keep listening. Thanks for putting this out

For no excusable reason, I haven't followed Atreyu since their second album, and I've always had a special place in my heart for them as they got me through the harder times of my Marine Corps journey. I can't believe how insane their musicianship has grown when this popped on my feed, and how incredibly played with such emotion! It's insane how fast 20 years have passed since The Curse, how fast the band has all grown up, and how heart breaking it is that we've lost such an icon in music with Chris Cornell how quickly his life had passed. Thank you for this, that was a wild ride.

Hands down, the best cover (I’ve heard) of such a beautiful piece of poetry from Chris Cornell. In my opinion, very few CAN give this song the life it’s meant to. A strong vocalist like David Draiman, Serj Tankian, Aaron Lewis, Myles Kennedy, Brent Smith. Singers that deliver each lyric with unparalleled depth and emotion. Amazing arrangement, Atreyu. And thank you for the astonishing vocals, Mr. Saller.
