Chris & Ben (Soundgarden) - Blow Up the Outside World

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

[@TaraSon1000]

Wherever he is now, I hope Chris can experience every heart he filled and fixed. I hope he can finally feel how much he meant to us

[@Basic_Blue]

"A poet is an unhappy being whose heart it torn by secret sufferings, but whose lips are so strangely formed that when the sighs and the cries escape them, they sound like beautiful music... and then people crowd about the poet and say to him: Sing for us soon again; that is as much as to say. May new sufferings torment your soul. " ~~ Søren Kierkegaard RIP Chris Cornell

This is my favorite rendition of this song as well. I grew up devoted to Hip Hop, but always liked Soundgarden (Temple of the Dog/Audiodlave) a lot. Around 2021, I fell into Chris Cornell again and realized how fond of his music I actually am. I carry such a deep regret for never having seen him play live.

Wish that was all there was to it, friend, but it's sung as a question and the full lyrics of that section are actually pretty disturbing... Chris was crying out in pain and needed help even when this record came out. I wish someone would have listened more carefully then as it might have prevented what would later happen. RIP Chris.

[@Nightboat]

@Shawn Jerome He wasn't on heroin.

[@Nightboat]

@Shawn Jerome No, that is not the case with Chris, Shawn. Perhaps you are thinking of Kurt Cobain? Toxicology reports for Chris revealed that several prescription drugs were in his system the night of his death. He had high levels of barbiturates (prescription sedatives) and four doses of lorazepam (also known as the anxiety medication Ativan) in his body at the time of his death. Traces of caffeine (an upper), pseudoephedrine (a decongestant), and naloxone (administered by EMTs to stop a possible overdose) were also revealed in the toxicology report. Despite evident signs of prescription drug abuse, the coroner officially determined that Chris Cornell’s prescription drug abuse did not directly cause his death. This was not an overdose, and experts say it is unlikely that the “weird combination” of uppers and downers in Cornell’s system would lead him to hang himself.

I would love your input on our last video from our first album. It got the attention of one of my heroes Joe Bouchard (ex bass player founding members of BÖC) who is following us on Soundcloud but returns from people who likes same music is always the best.

[@CarelessVagabond]

We were truly lucky to live at the same tme as him. He explained to me what I felt when I thought I could never understand. We've all been through so much. We've lost so much and when he left us, it was like I lost a father I never had.. a friend in the fight. I watched the last girl I'll ever be with, take her own life at about the same time he took his. I've never been the same. I miss the old days so much. I guess you just trudge on and find your peace of you can. I hope he found his... I'm still looking for mine.

[@tobyjuanbaloney]

Chris will always be with us as long as we keep listening to his otherworldly lyricism and voice. He was and will always be my favorite artist and I've cried every time I've watched or listened to his videos on KZbin every weekend, since his passing. I've no more tears left to cry. I only wish that I wasn't so naive and selfish my youth, thinking he was solely singing about and relating to MY pain. His hurt was so profound, it was far to easy to relate to. It's like Josh Homme sang; "I'll make a mountain of a molehill, if the molehill is mine." If you introduce his heartful lyrics and his impeccable voice to your kids, nieces, nephews, cousins, and so on, Chris will be eternal. He is in my book.

[@IhaveaPhDinTV]

My vERy favorite part

[@patrickc.mcevoy2065]

That verse hits me like a right hook, when I consider his chosen fate. Lyric is made much heavier with that knowledge in the back of my mind. A few others also hint at his state of mind , in that way. Burden in my hand, fell on black days, and outshined all reveal a glimpse of a soul in agony. He is obviously in constant, intense pain. He has soul pain, not body pain(like mine), but either kind will drive you mad in time. Phys.pain makes me very irritable, mean even. I want to hit something or someone, but I dont cuz then im causing pain.(F. That) Soul pain makes you cry out and hide, nothing to hit. I just wish he could've found a reason to stay, like his kids , or something. It's tragic, but it's really not his fault. May God have mercy on his spirit and on us all. Amen.

[@bradd5112]

The song was called "Maybe" lyrics are Crazy in an empty Feeling unaware living as it makes me dying I don't care Taken down beneath me Choices as it's blade Pressures that it could be Take me I'm afraid Chorus Maybe I'm to late Maybe I'm reaching out again Take me it's my own way Maybe I'm reaching out again and so on..I will upload the song one day. But I guess what I'm trying to say is I didn't really know why I was writing that stuff but it was somehow how it should be or could be.

Scott Owens in the last period chris wasn ' t so depressed and in a bad mood. His wife said that he had a strong love for his family which let him go forward. Causes for his Death are probably those medicines that lead him to suicide..

[@ultraviolence825]

Best Version IMO!

[@JonBennington]

live music separates the talented from the engineered

[@amanwithafakename]

RIP... This song was my fav of his. Although I don't know Chris Cornell on any level....i feel as though he was an essential part of me growing up. Part of me doesn't really know how to deal with this...

[@deanoriccardi8593]

My feeling exactly...and it still hurts...this is like a wound that does not heal

[@Safetysweet]

Chris’s death definitely stung. I wasn’t expecting it at all, I thought he could’ve held out for just a little longer.

[@ChrisPBacon-wq4pu]

So so so so grateful to have seen Soundgarden play here in NYC a few years. I was right in the front. Chris singing, is Godly. His range is like no other. I sound crazy but if you saw them in person, you know! A rock God for sure! I just hope the remaining members can settle the things with Vicky. 🙏🤘

[@dag681]

IT is very hard to realize....how much you love someone, until they are gone. Listening to Chris Cornell, is an exercise in discovering a space that is filled by his voice. Luckily, we have these recordings.

[@bonnieandclydeshomestead2477]

My wife just yelled, what are you listening to!!! So needless to say I’m filing for divorce, just got off the phone with my lawyer!

[@EvilGemini0564]

LMAO

[@supermanman6460]

Hilarious 😂

[@FranciscoChagas-vq5vg]

Lol😂😂😂

[@davidvoneschen2346]

I'd do the same thing!

[@aspjake123]

LMAO Time for a CC loving partner bro

[@markqueen9459]

This is fantastic! I love how they play together.

[@seangagnonProvidenceR.I.]

Beautiful song that stings ...

[@WR_CTorch]

I like how the bass player just plays through the singing part where most of us mortals exist. Then, continues his life of super chill when Chris’s voice just explodes into a range that none of us lives in.

[@BewilderedBird]

Yes his voice was incredible, but his songwriting, lyrics, and inventive guitar playing, when taken all together, I think you can make a good case that Chris Cornell was the greatest rock musician of all time.

[@Heather-r2n]

I used to think in the dark! But I don't anymore. In his lyrics you can tell that he was in the dark. It's too late to say if he only would have waited! He left a lot of music for us I just hope no one gets the wrong idea. Never give up! RIP Chris❤❤❤

[@JackoReaper]

such a deep sound. Chris Cornell still has a good voice.

[@douglaschristine8387]

God that voice is so amazing, gives me chills and goosebumps all over. What a waste, I wish he would've got the help he needed. To this day I still think about Chris Cornell. Rest in peace my good friend.

[@2Waffles1Cup]

Chris Cornell I fucking love you

[@christophercronan3672]

after 90's Soundgarden, STP, A in Chains, Tool..everyone just sounds like boy bands

[@Chubzdoomer]

Wish I could give this 100 thumbs ups.

[@nintendorobin]

i don't agree it's still there just sad that you have to search so much to find it. What gets noticed these days has changed for sure though. :/

[@SepieSmith]

Christopher Cronan this is so true... I hate today's whiney singer voices, uucch

[@joseluis0301]

Christopher Cronan 🤘🤘🤘

[@KCKIDD94]

Christopher Cronan Fuck off dude

[@audiophile102]

I find it really sad that nobody knows much about Soundgarden outside of "Superunknown." They have so many great albums and songs beyond that album.

[@adeliahogarth2407]

+Matt Hofmann DOTU is a great album, in fact all of their work is.

[@robertotakahashi9950]

You're right, but, you know, for me Superunknow is their masterpiece. Those songs, melodies, that drum sound... man!

[@jetsaleet]

My favorite album is Badmotorfinger

[@pmaster1173]

badmotorfinger

[@ellisgurung]

Matt Hofmann for me it's dotu

[@emwagner123]

If I HAD to choose, Blow Up would be my favorite SG song.... It is perfect acoustically and electrically. And it speaks to me... in so many ways.,

[@Bearlyontime]

Feb 2019....missed everyday, not many Vocalists that make my spirit feel good in every note he sang with passion

[@evantapper5924]

And March 2019.

[@karenb6727]

Chris is awesome! He is one of my favorite artists! He's got one of the best voices in rock and roll!

[@sofiacm8349]

He was not only pure talent..but he was so awesome....so sexy

[@kathylyons3895]

Chris Cornell had so much to give, I feel he could have saved some for himself! He had an amazing career and chose to end his life, I've been there, but knowing it could be worse, I hang in there, so if I can help someone before my time is over, then I achieved my goal! This man affected me so deeply with his music, I have been deviated in loss! Go with God! 🌹 +1

[@E.Humperdinck]

Pure Perfection. His voice, his use of guitars. I really wish he was still here. The greatest voice of all music.
