Chris Cornell - Black Hole Sun

In my eyes
Indisposed
In disguise as no one knows
Hides the face
Lies the snake
And the sun in my disgrace
Boiling heat
Summer stench
'Neath the black
The sky looks dead
Call my name through the cream
And I'll hear you scream again
Black hole sun
Won't you come
And wash away the rain?
Black hole sun
Won't you come?
Stuttering
Cold and damp
Steal the warm wind tired friend
Times are gone for honest men
And sometimes
Far too long for snakes
In my shoes
A walking sleep
And my youth I pray to keep
Heaven send hell away
No one sings like you anymore
Black hole sun
Won't you come
And wash away the rain?
Black hole sun
Won't you come?
(Black hole sun)
Won't you come?
Hang my head
Drown my fear
'Till you all just disappear
Black hole sun
Won't you come
And wash away the rain?
Black hole sun
Won't you come?
(Black hole sun)
Won't you come?

[@ChrisCornell2010]

Thank you everyone for all the kind words to Chris. We all really miss him. It's a hard thing to deal with.

[@debrasherkphdlmft6335]

His music and voice has been haunting me in all of the deepest, most beautiful, and at times, painful ways for the last few weeks, seemingly out of the blue. What a gift and inspiration he was and always will be to this world. A true artist, poet, philosopher, and gentle soul. May you rest in peace, Chris Cornell

[@eleigh5351]

Absolutely no artist can touch that talent. A legend.

[@Bekind94]

I think of him every day. The music healed me and showed me how to hurt all in one. My soul is in these lines and those years

[@djinndemon]

no one sings like you anymore

Well there is Justin Beiber

No, not after may 2017.

[@waled7rocky]

I think he meant no not himself But the person who died on 20/7/2017 😢💔

This song saved me today

[@jmanwg8681]

How are you?

RIP Chris Black hole sun Won't you come And wash away the rain? Black hole sun Won't you come? .. .Hang my head Drown my fear 'Till you all just disappear

For GenX it seems we are at that age when all the voices of our youth are leaving us. Although they are gone their music and the memories they gave us will remain. Chris Cornell: July 20, 1964 - May 18, 2017

[@CajunRulez]

Yeah. What the Hell man. 41 years old. I fell like all the guys who carried me through the awkward teen years are gone. This is just depressing. I'm so glad I got to see SG twice in the early 90's, along with just about every other great band from that era. OD'ing on Sound Garden, Temple Of The Dog, and Chis right now. I still have my original CDs from back in the day!

[@Wavebreakerband]

Not sure "OD'ing" is the most appropriate word to use right now.

[@NXTMusicianBassist]

Cornell died by hanging, so "OD'ing" isn't too off color. Also, CajunRulez, Cornell was 52, not 41. Unless... were you stating your own age?

[@Wavebreakerband]

Ah, my bad. I hadn't heard yet that he hung himself. I'd only read that his wife suspected that he OD'd.

[@stevenews6660]

My bet is he was murdered for uncovering what a pile of shit the Clinton Foundation is. He unfortunately was involved with them (although he had his own charity) and then...well, he was an honest decent guy, probably spoke out. Him and Chester die the same way, I mean come on.

[@hmoy24677]

The glorious 90s.

[@thebestlaptime8669]

A beautiful performance, rest easy Chris. Thank you for your gift to the world. No one sings like you anymore.RIP

[@kadafibasaluddin9067]

Indeed!

[@joshfallon123]

No one sings like you anymore, rest in peace brother, love you 😢😢

[@Something-tx6cl]

So glad you just completely ripped off the top comment, which was nothing special to begin with. You're a joke.

[@joshfallon123]

Dr. Samuel Hayden I didn't even look at the comments I just commented what I was feeling, my comment is based on my own grief, not that I have to explain myself to you

[@uncletoby1]

Dr. Samuel Hayden You're a fuckwit

[@blazeseraz8330]

It's been a year since you left and there's still no one that sings like you anymore. Me and many other people, miss you. RIP Chris.

[@procioneintubato]

The best ever. They don't make em like Chris anymore.

[@agirlinterupted]

RIP .... an angel's voice has left us today 😢

[@TheBtptube]

You know how you can tell a song and it's creator are magnificent? That it can be played in other sounds and be just as great. Thank you, Mr. Cornell.

[@Poekoe1975]

I cannot BELIEVE the incredible cord-progression in this song.. It's one of the few songs who made it to the radio that didn't/doesn't have a standard cord progression (3 or 4 cords) I LOVE it!! Thanks Chris!

[@petetalbot9699]

The dictionary definition of talent......not many artists can say their music holds up 30 years later and I'm pretty sure Chris' music will never date, much like Nirvana's. Probably the greatest and most emotive voice in rock music history. Even though youre no longer with us, take comfort that you will never be forgotten and you had a profound impact on the entire music industry and millions of people. When your music produces that much raw emotion you're doing something right. Not a bad legacy

[@briandowers851]

Truly, no one sings like you anymore

[@markgoyette6827]

Love the flip flops.Indeed no one sings like you anymore, and they never will again. Thank You Chris

[@1mattbusa]

songwritting is a gift u cant teach. And mr cornell has been blessed with that gift.

[@aliciahn]

this performance is addictive

[@kimerleviccaro1957]

This is so beautiful, Chris sings it a little differently, I miss him so much, there is no one like him ever❤️❤️

[@thefacebookhasser]

One of the songs i will never stop listen to!

[@jonathanportlandify]

Siiiiiiiiiick! The video back in the day was one of the best. Chris Cornell's voice is amazing, and you know it.

[@Swampmetal1]

Greatest version I have ever heard ! Chris is amazing !!

[@holmie89]

Layne Staley.. No one sings like you anymore,,, R.I.P. Layne

[@brandonriddett9783]

A man and his guitar = magical! Rest easy Chris

[@BBsNest]

Forever with us in spirit..

[@georgegeysen6499]

Stunning performance ... I have always loved this song, but now after his passing, hearing him alone, with a guitar, makes the song all the more special. Just brilliant. Thank you.

[@91FLSTC]

Still one of my favorites of all time.

[@KushChosen]

OMG ACOUSTIC this is fantastic.

[@valp137]

R.I.P. brother. I started singing influenced by you. Hundreds of wonderful singers couldn`t do it for me before. I sing at karaoke competitions now. That speaks volume. Thank you, maestro.

[@asiaroberts7340]

This song is still a favorite of mine. It was exactly how I felt about the world in the depth of sorrow. No one expressed it better. Thank you Chris Cornell for your fantastic voice and musical talent that no one can duplicate. He is missed more than he ever knew. The strength Soundgarden gave to youth struggling is beyond what they knew they offered their fans.

[@lpjbird]

Never does it get old, or any less pleasurable to hear...

[@user-lo1wf9nk4v]

Love listing to Mr.Cornell so very very talented beautiful voice,awesome band, miss him' he will never be forgotten

[@TheKidStardust]

2:36 legendary! A great Artist is gone, can't get enough to listen to this version of the song. His music was great!

[@lillyanthony3885]

beautiful

[@carpediem9718]

"No one sings like you anymore..." - RIP!

[@ViceKnIghtTA]

1:36 "no one sings like you anymore"....RIP Chris 😔

[@guitarsnguns]

I really like the melodic structure of this song, simple but contageous. I find myself sitting down, plugging in and getting lost in this song for a half hour. My wife stood in front of me for 5 minutes last evening while I was playing it and I never knew she was there! Ooops.

[@antonijabjelis3196]

The way he played the guitar..just amazing.. melodic and harmonious..the first riff in this song,increadible..🫶💜

[@rarton]

A master piece of a great musician, Chris Cornell :)

[@jasonwetzel5493]

Another voice of my generation gone too soon. RIP Chris no one sings like you anymore.

[@SenorKraut]

It's such pleasure to see (and hear) that Chris Cornell is no uber-guitarist but the power he puts in that song makes it such an honest thing. Also he looks so fucking cool.

[@mauriciogarcia8306]

Chris Cornell, a really master

[@claredrew8039]

Man, he was gorgeous. Miss him

[@mikeyoung2627]

RIP Chris! YOUR voice will always bring me back to my teen years

[@treypresson3175]

really one of the greats ever... really honest tunes w depth n density that give a thick stroke from the paint brush that he wields making masterful pieces of art... much obliged Chris

[@brianpinion5438]

Wasnt smart enough to word it .that's the truth .exactly how I fell anyway if feelings could speak. Guess they do or we wouldn't be listening to chris.

[@AlexandreAugustobsb]

Anos 90's que não voltam mais!! Mas sei lá de uns tempos para cá está tão presente! Músicas, pessoas que curtiam a mesma coisa, mas em lugares completamente distantes e longes! Tudo é bom! Relembrar é viver! E outra, nos faz respirar novos ares inclusive :D

[@woody2765]

The greatest ever

[@NikonFstopper]

Damnit man, why did you leave! Your music will live forever, peace my brother!

[@xpclass272]

Chris, I always wondered if you had professional vocal training. I was listing to your music since I was like 8 years old. Just amazing.

[@floydthebarber71]

Tomislav Vidaković of course he had vocal training.

[@neilwaight720]

Never will there be another like you. R.i.p chris

[@terryhettich57]

rip chris you will be missed and your music has helped my life so much .

[@lukinmanetti7969]

This is a perfect example of why i hate videos... every time i heard this song, i'd think of that stupid video, that is until i saw this! beautiful!

[@RecTec77]

lukin manetti a musicvideo really shouldn´t have the power to create hate in anyone´s brain. i for myself like the video, cause i associate it with that great studio version of black hole sun. it´s up to you to let hate be a part of your life. you as well could cut your negative thoughts out and direct your attention to the beauty of the music. remember, your energy always will follow your attention...

[@lukinmanetti7969]

RecTec77 You know, I respect your opinion so much that I won't ask you to respect mine... Oh look, something's following you. It might just be your energy.

[@lukinmanetti7969]

RecTec77 If you'll notice the very last thing I mention in my post here is how beautiful I think this is...

[@RecTec77]

lukin manetti that is not the part of your post i was commenting on. If you´ll notice...

[@philswordfish5243]

my greatest respect for this incredible artist. The best never last for ever, but they leave a trail of geniality, transcendence and immortality. This performance is pure heaven....please give me the key to open these doors and appreciate his voice fore ever and ever....

[@flynntaylor5459]

part 2- This book is my personal history to loving AIC through my music journey, loss of Layne and my grief, sect for Layne, madseason, addict, depress, side projects etc, poems I write about Layne, sect for jerry, my fav tunes , live performances, and any thing else I casn think of- please help me made this book a reality for layne dignity- so he may rest- I think he would have wanted it.

RIP Chris. Now you are singing in Heaven with Christina Grimmie, Michael Jackson, Kurt Cobain, George Michael, Prince, John Lennon, George Harrison and other legends.

[@almostgonejustlittlebitlef5099]

definitely a legend so sad I wish I could say he was in heaven but so far from there just cannot sin like that truly one of the best though...

[@juliopinedo9402]

almostgonejustlittlebitleft Green What do you mean sin? As great a man he was I'm sure he wasn't a saint but a sin? or rather what sin that would prevent him from going to heaven (it it's even real that is)

[@TheRydog61]

I"m guessing that comment was made because Green prolly thinks Chris took his own life, so now he can"t go to heaven,,,I obviously wasn"t there, However I believe there was some foul play involved.

[@thefacebookhasser]

You're right..Chrisis the best^^

R.I.P Chris!(((
