Amazing tribute man. Could you consider maybe doing Mykonos by Fleet Foxes? I learned their other songs but Mykonos is a great song and I cannot find any other tutorials on KZbin! Awesome channel dude, you got another sub (road to 200k)!

[@daniellanieddu8144]

thank you so much! great teacher and made this really easy to learn :)

[@aledjones951]

A dignified and fitting tribute,thanks.

[@CHE113A]

swiftlessons Thankyou So Much for this! My Heart still hurts! #ChrisCornell He Was And Still IS *The Best* ! R.I.P to a An Amazingly Talented, Beautiful *Legend* ❤

[@CHE113A]

Worst thing Is I was meant to see him 'Live' The Year we Lost My Mum. So I swore, "Next Year"!! And, I couldn't believe it!! We had Devastatingly Lost him,. I Never got to meet My Idol! 💔 Hopefully, with your help, I'll Learn to play this. Also I'd Love to play 'Through the Window' & 'These Three Words' I'm pretty sure, Learning with you This is Very Possible!! ; )

[@davidringo1399]

I am a 62 year old blues rock guitar player from Memphis.....Dont like many of the new artists but Chris Cornell was remarkable......awesome killer voice and his writing talent is just unreal...Why do these great artists leave us so soon....why ?...Miss you Chris....

[@maya-hx7xf]

David Ringo they don’t belong in this shitty new era anymore... they are left behind so we can remember when this world once had the best music and artists.

[@cannon_penn7618]

• maya • I don’t understand why people can’t make music anymore. It also pains me whenever someone calls a guy or girl mumbling about money, sex, and drugs “music”.

[@blue1133]

@@cannon_penn7618 There's still good music nowadays, but it's not the same, it's extremely rare and compared to past years it may never be the same. Unfortunately the little good music there's still left is overshadowed by generic garbage and whatever the music industry wants to commercialize, therefore rendering the once meaningful lyrical value completely meaningless... All it matters, all people want now, it's the $$$

[@cannon_penn7618]

Blue113 100 percent agree with you. There still is good music

[@lupusmalum6103]

@@cannon_penn7618 Money, sex, drugs and the like have been present in music since the dawn of music. To pretend like it's new is bullshit. What you mean to say is that your march to the grave is going faster than you like and the fact that music has evolved over time is a constant, melodic reminder of your impending demise. What you mean to say is young people are doing it differently than you remember and change frightens you. Music, theoretically, can be made mathematically. Still, everyone puts soul into it when they make it. Just because it's not soundgarden doesn't mean it isn't music. Music is an art form. the artist can do whatever they like and the product will still be art. Something that requires the consumer to understand that their opinion on it is subjective. Get over yourself.

[@mitch3DG]

R.I.P Chris Cornell, a truly inspirational musician and person... left behind 2 beautiful kids and a wife, may God bless them. Fly easy, you will be missed 😦😢😦😧

[@swiftlessons]

+Mitchell McCrory amen to that Mitchell... I hope it won't be long before we see his daughter Toni carry the torch. She's got her dads talent.

[@mitch3DG]

Absolutely! I saw her and her dad cover Rememption song from Bob Marley... truly amazing! I would love to see her live :)

[@breesechick]

IDK if you found out but Chris's first wife was soundgardens first manager and they were married and had a daughter and her name is lily. That nasty Vicky carianas woman somehow managed to seduce Chris and both wrecked his marriage. Not that it matters but just that you might want to know that he actually has three children.

[@Kolya_Smirnov]

You really did justice to that song. Thanks.

[@chrisbrowning5591]

I sobbed while listening listening to you perform this. That was an incredible and emotional performance. What you said about the memories and the friends that shared his music really hit me. I graduated in 1991 and his music was playing in the background of many of my most fond memories. Thank you for sharing this.

[@swiftlessons]

+Chris Browning Hey Chris, thanks for the friendly message. To be honest, I got my tears out a few times rehearsing. Music really triggers a lot of emotions and memories, and the artist becomes a part of that... I hope playing this tune is as cathartic for you as it was for me. Be well and thanks again for the thoughtful comment. -Rob

[@RobbietheMann1]

I remember the first time I heard this song. I left the hard rock café with an indescribable feeling, I think something changed in me. Thank you Chris Cornell

[@swiftlessons]

I first heard it sitting 1ft away from the TV watching the box... It defintiely blew my mind Robbie!

Just got done listening to chris cornell sing this song with just his acoustic on the howard stern show, thought i would look up the lesson and maybe given it a try, and yes you nailed it in this lesson, you are very good, have seen some of your other lessons too and thought the same. Thank you

Thank you for the beautiful lesson on Black Hole Sun. I have been following Chris' career since the late 80's and I will miss him dearly, but he will live on through his music. My heart goes out to his family and friends. Once again cheers for the lesson!!

[@chie1709]

Steve?...Steve Rodgers? Cap? Captain America? 😁 thanks for the lesson. I love this song.

[@johnnyl1957]

I am a 62 year old also and agree with the comment made by David Ringo (below), such a shame to see a great talent leave us so early. Thank you very much for your tutorial 'swift lessons'. Great song, great arrangement. 👍🏻 ☮️

[@crazedzealots]

That was beautifully sung. I used to be able to sing like that but hurt myself through overtraining and over screaming for years and years. I'm glad i discovered you.

[@surf-metrics]

Grew up on Soundgarden and Cornell. Badmotorfinger was a music epiphany for me at the age of 20. These songs are part of me. It was shocking to say the least. 6 months ago I picked up a guitar (messed around in the early 90's for a very short period, but had zero resources so that went nowhere quick) with a mission to be able to play songs just like this. I've been working through a number of the relatively easy Neil Young classics, but starting to creep into bar chords. Thank you so much. You have a great voice to boot.

[@jfvhunter6533]

He's like a mix of Captain America, Chris Evans and Chris Cornell😊

Wow what a voice 👏🏻

[@rodriguezseanr]

Thanks for such a great tutorial! I love the play through in the beginning with the close ups of your hands. I was able to learn this song in just one day, by following your instructions and then playing along several times.

[@bryaneasterdaysr2223]

Awesome I hope to play that good! Fantastic singing too!

[@Klaatu731]

I am so happy to have found your video! I’ve been working on the song, but wasn’t sure which way to play it. Your arrangement sounds great! I’ll use your version as a reference. Thank you so much! I’ve watched Chris play Black Hole Sun, but he plays it differently every time.

Thank you so much for doing this lesson. It's actually the furst video I've seen of yours, and "Black Hole Sun" is a song I've always wanted to learn, but just assumed it would be too difficult. Thanks to you, I see it's definitely not out of reach to play...but still not sure I can sing it. Chris was truly one-of-a-kind. Thanks again for making this video, it means a lot to me personally.

He didnt pay on his land note so when the financial instatution went to reposess it to plot it for a farm he refused to leave the ultimately had it torn down with him inside resulting in his death grandmother says he still walks the property in the early morning at day break only disappear when you walk outside to approach him. He somtimes is seen in the house in the corner of the living room rocking in in a chair in the corner i havnt seen him but that was years ago. I have only 3 of those paintings, the real paintings not replicas. Its nice to see something from my childhood unchanged
