[@RojMofficial]

Chris Cornell is my favorite artist. It’s been so extremely difficult to find someone on KZbin/in person that knows the correct chords to anything he created. Thank you so much!

[@RyanLendt]

you're so very welcome AMR cheers to you!

[@king13131313]

Great, now every time I hear this song, I'll hear "banana pudding", it will never be the same again after this. 😂😂

[@RyanLendt]

muahahaha :)

[@shawnfaulkner7889]

Right!.... Shit.😕

[@glmoore001]

Me too!

[@itsaconspiracy3810]

Dude. Thank you! I've watched (and learned from) some of your other videos -- especially Chris Cornell songs -- so when I searched for a lesson on this song and saw your video, I immediately clicked and thought to myself "this guy usually has pretty good tutorials." And to my absolute delight, I (again) was not disappointed! And I'm pretty picky, usually I have to cherry pick many different lessons from many different people and piece together the parts that sound the most correct. Lots of these guys get lazy and don't learn things all the way through, or they just don't have quite the right sounding chord voicings/progressions. This sounds perfect to me! So again, from the bottom of my heart, thank you! You are awesome!

[@jackchapman19806]

Not gonna lie, I saw this around when it was posted, but was intimidated by "like most this is a handful of chords" so I moved on to something less intimidating at the time. HOWEVER, ever since then, I ONLY HEAR "BANANA PUDDING" EVERY TIME. Today I decided to tackle it and was able to get it down within the time of the video! So I updated my Patrion contribution as a token of my gratitude. These videos and lessons may seem like a small thing (I hope they dont), but I hope you know how many lives you are touching out here, positively contributing to so many people's journeys, supporting their aspirations, creating outlets and so on! It's no small thing at all! Thank you Ryan!

[@adith293]

3:38 "Banana Pudding" I laughed way too much for that😂😂

[@rumglas]

Ryan you are one of the best guitar teachers on YT. Keep it easy and good pace. You deserve more credit and subs. Thanks for your video’s

[@RyanLendt]

I appreciate you Rum

[@brinkybrinkz]

I agree. He is a talented man who rocks, he also makes learning fun. Ryan is funny and cares about animals. A great teacher. My favorite for years.

[@MrBuketman]

When you know your chords, you know you found the right channel. Boom. Thanks man for your spot on delivery. Always fun to see and learn your agreeable song choices.

[@RyanLendt]

you rock Mr. B - thanks for being here, and for the shout :)

[@robbiemackenzie5746]

Hi there, I am currently learning all about Soundgarden and Chris Cornell. My tattoo artist and I play guitar and sing at my appointments. He showed me this song and sang it brilliantly. Glad I can now learn it too. Thank you 👍🏼

[@jakebsowders357]

Man , that’s sounds so good , It reminds me how good a guitar player Chris was , and you can play all his songs , that’s something to be proud of , ... and you help me more than you’ll ever know , Thanks

[@RyanLendt]

It's a privilege Jake, thank you :)

[@ThiagodMoraes]

Chris was one of the best lead singer rhythm guitar i ever heard, try to sing Rusty cage, Black rain and sing at same time!!

[@jakebsowders357]

Thiago Moraes .... After following SoundGarden and Pearl Jam more than half of my 40 years .... Kim Thayil always got mad when people asked about his status in the band as a lead guitarist... and also when Chris was labeled as a Rhythm guitarist.... Kim always said they all have their own attributes to bring to the table .. and he said Chris could have been a lead guitarist in any band , ever .... and if you watch a lot of KZbin videos , you’ll see he plays leads a lot ...

[@4wolverines]

Thanks! This is grea!. One of my favorite bands as well as Chris being one of my favorite singer/song writers ever! So grateful that he was able to at least leave us with a lot of great music to listen to & remember!

[@RyanLendt]

me too 4W - me too :)

[@songsfromthecanoe]

He fit together C - F# and G - C# by virtue of being Chris Cornell, a man who concerned himself much more with "what sounds neat" than he did "what fits into this key" :)

[@RyanLendt]

yes, I'm with you there, I just can't make the leap melodically without lots and lots of help - how that one came naturally is completely Beyonce (beyond me)

[@rufust.firefly6810]

I might have written 'Thank you' before, but as it can't be said and thought enough, especially regarding this fabulous tune: Thank you, Master Lendt. Did anybody else immediately felt this had a Bond-vibe, when listen to DOTU for the first time back in 97? (Or in 06 like, "Dude, You know my name" sounds great, but you've already nailed it 9 years before ...)🤟🍀

[@RyanLendt]

valid point rufus!

[@portuguy]

Thank you for breaking down this fantastic song for the public! I can't wait to try it out. Also, banana pudding absolutely killed me. your sense of humor kills me. Thanks again

[@death6506]

Struggled to find a good video for this but this is my first time stumbling upon your channel. Dude you are hilarious! Very engaging to see all the fun stuff you provide for learning. Keep up the good work!

[@RyanLendt]

thanks and welcome to the party!

[@patprime7320]

Reading Pa, was the first place I saw PJ. Played Nothingman acoustic. I shed a tear

[@RyanLendt]

I think I wish I would have been at that show

[@robertkeane2950]

Really great explanation for my recap. No drawn out talking or 20 minute vid, all correct chords, very easy to understand your banana pudding and informal verbal breakdown talk, lol. Made recapping a breeze. Great stuff. First time here, gonna check out more.

[@fatmanbhkbjorn]

Thank you ❤ love Chris - you’re awesome!

[@baco2778]

Thanks Ryan! One of my favs!! Keep going, awesome!

[@RyanLendt]

why thank you Oscar!

[@JeffMiller-ci7mn]

Awesome...can't wait to play this when I get home tonight! This song has always been a favorite, especially the SNL version.

[@RyanLendt]

whoaaaaa i didn't know that was there I must watch it!

[@JeffMiller-ci7mn]

@@RyanLendt Yeah, the live song, along with Pretty Noose, is on Telephantasm deluxe.

[@meskalino]

man i love this song.. too bad he eventually did blew up the outside world, he had more to learn us. btw you are right, their chord progression is always on a next level, i also often find myself asking, how did they come up with that?? another great choice ryan, thumbs up

[@RyanLendt]

it is too bad indeed. certainly 20 more years of great songs were due :( thank you Meska, and cheers.

[@jayson_michael]

Been waiting for this. Learning asap. Thank you!

[@gavinclark9179]

Thanks for clearing up the last ringy outy chords for me there! This was the first song I learnt from watching him play!!

[@RyanLendt]

it's the best way to learn a song :)

[@RayBoulay]

DUDE! Thank you for this! Thank you for all of this! To find a single source for amazing songs with clear, concise and f*king entertaining content is great! You're a gem. Thank you. I will head over to Patreon and support. btw... *banana pudding...* nearly broke me from laughing so hard. 🤣

[@AchillesWrath1]

Hi i just wanted to say im you're newest subscriber. Im so glad i found your channel. You teach some of my favorite songs.

[@RyanLendt]

welcome to the party Jerm and thanks for the shout! I'm delighted you're here :)

[@brinkybrinkz]

Banana pudding!🤣 I haven't had that for years. I have to get me some nilla wafers, bananas, cool whip and make homemade pudding. The Bridge school benefit live of Blow up the Outside makes me feel sad because Chris singing the lyrics nothing seems to kill me no matter how hard I try.... and you have the kids in the background with major disabilities and it makes you think of how fortunate we are in life, yet how fragile life can be. Emotional footage. On a positive note my short term goals for this month learn this song and celebrate with Banana pudding. Peace Ryan
