Chris & Ben (Soundgarden) - Halfway There

Acoustic intimate set by Chris Cornell and Ben Shepherd from Soundgarden, at the KISW rock radio station.

[@rogerreynolds5822]

This is one of the most beautiful songs ever written. One of the most beautiful voices of our time.

[@mykelgreene911]

I like black hole sun myself..

[@STETTRACE]

Such a master at controlling his voice. This is a half step down from usual because he KNEW by feel I’m sure; that he needed to drop down. Professionals as well as amateurs should be taking notes. Bravo to my personal favorite singer of all time. And songwriter and a VERY underrated guitarist. This one hurt more than all the others combined. Still hurts daily

[@Beeker255]

Still hurts....Still

[@timetravelingoldman6839]

Chris is the best

[@STETTRACE]

Any of you singers out there notice he is dropped down in this performance? The man KNEW where his voice was at all times. Just a MASTER vocalist!! As well as a master player and songwriter and lyricist!!!

[@williamshiver3480]

Some of the best instincts of any musician

[@dawnthompson7530]

Terry….you explained Chris’s vocal precision perfectly. He was a master vocalist, poet, and not a bad guitar player.

[@STETTRACE]

@@dawnthompson7530 he was a GREAT guitar player

[@STETTRACE]

@@dawnthompson7530 ….and the melodies he came up with to sing over those guitar parts is AMAZING. Thanks for your comment darling

[@dawnthompson7530]

@@STETTRACE you are correct he was a great guitar player. I always have wanted to see Chris play the drums.

[@bladehoner3185]

These recordings are the best_very pure sound!

[@BlueVansCapofAwesome]

Yeah, this. I just wish we could have had more... :/

[@adeliahogarth2407]

This version is played faster than the demo or the album versions, and yet it is still beautifully carried out and delivers the message it intends to. Thank you for the upload.

Overview Lyrics Listen People also search for Lyrics I woke up with my feet nailed down and my head moving the speed of sound Had a dream I was caught in a maze and couldn't find my way back out Some were born to move mountains around and some to rot away in jail I get an itch and when I am scratching everything can go to hell And how far is halfway there? I didn't see you on the trail Did almost become good enough should a good life be so hard won? Is that what our dreams have become? Sometimes when you're shooting an arrow it can fly Across the sky so proud I would go all the way to the sun if I didn't have to come back down And how far is halfway there? Didn't see you on the trail Did almost become good enough? Should a good life be so hard won Is that what our dreams have become? Have become Have you got a car and somewhere to sleep? Someone who loves you? Something to eat? I would say you're doing better than most Though maybe not as well as some And how far is halfway there? I didn't see you on the trail Did almost become good enough? Should a good life be so hard won? Is that what our dreams have become? Is that what our dreams have become?

[@Beeker255]

Chris Cornell moved mountains around thats for sure.

[@davidhumeniuk1543]

Thank you for sharing Chris. Lifes twists are awkward and illogical yet always inevitable.

[@janetbentley6602]

All of these are impeccable. It's better every time you hear it. I hope he has peace ☮️💟

[@kbishop2860]

This is my favorite song on King Animal. Rowing and Black Saturday are also great.

[@danielrobinson7427]

The man spoke the truth in his songs always and didn’t care what anyone thought

[@lukasrbic6008]

On the fine line of trying not to cry while singing is not so easy let alone to master it.

So good. Why can't the bands of today sound this good?

[@hershysquirts187]

+Fawn Lebowitz Because they suck.

[@WarbladeX1]

Fawn Lebowitz because Hollywood will kill people like this who crush Jay-Z, Talor Swift, Katy Perry because jealousy runs deep.

"Why can't the bands of today sound this good?" Check out the english group "DeadBlondeStars" if you like Soundgarden you'll love these guys.

[@chrismineo1788]

with a name like that they have to suck. Plus , without Chris there can be no "sounds like."

[@Beeker255]

@@chrismineo1788 exactly ive ,listened to CC since 1990ish and I have only ever heard one person make me think it was Chric Cornell and it was only one song. It was on Madden Soulcrusher name of song gy sounds a lot like cc in certain parts and others not.

[@jakedezza13]

Is this played in half a step Down??

[@andrewborody]

I don't think the album version is, but I think he tuned down from time to time to make it easier to sing.

[@indianaxemusicandcreatedco8205]

Depends on the sound of your voice can do it in half step or standard I'd say

He sucked here.. he didn’t hit the notes.. he’s off key though it is in half step down.. that last note from the last chorus was really bad..

most disappointing sg song EVER. #shame

[@Beeker255]

Yes Light for SG but still a good song especially for Cornell.

[@makaylacaton6441]

Opinions are entirely personal and music is subjective as well. I'm sorry you don't like the song but I find it to be brilliant. Beauty can be found in the saddest of songs, even if you don't see it at first.
