How We Wrote That Song: Soundgarden "My Wave"

[@SXI96]

Rest Peacefully Chris, you touched countless lives all over the world, now your spirit will live on through the music

[@canarypierce]

Rest In Peace Chris. You were one of a kind!!

[@mayorofthenonsense]

I love how Chris would occasionally segue into deadpan sarcasm, often never even acknowledging it after the fact.

[@Spashaei]

1:30 when we wrote the star spangled banner…lol

[@jcgarpin]

LMAO...great interview...u clearly see these guys always had fun together...miss ya Chris RIP

[@cliffsta87337]

Awesome!!!! My all time favorite band.

[@historyarchive9808]

hang in there Cliff

[@ajadeleye4970]

Man, such dads. It's great. rip

[@Wolfdragon92584]

Superunknown is such a classic album. One of my favorites. Every song except "Fell on Black Days" and "She Likes Surprises" is in an alternate tuning. "My Wave" is EEBBBB

[@cliffsta87337]

I love this video. These three old friends. God I miss Chris. I’ve watched this so many times including the day it was posted.

[@greg6162]

Me too man… but the great thing about KZbin is he’s always around. Plus I hate every social media platform except KZbin. It’s probably the only one that can actually make you a better person in terms of learning whatever you want, from how to play guitar or how to build something using power tools or whatever. His music just came so naturally it never seemed forced or overdone. Every band he was in made amazing music and he’s got the best Rock N Roll voice ever! He’s the greatest rock star to ever live IMO.

[@jtirello3_111]

I could watch hours of them talking about every song. So glad I got to see them live.

[@BlowUpTheOutsideWorld]

Soundgarden forever!

[@Moviememes]

1:10 Chris' look it's like the scariest thing ever

[@RenataDomarco_Arquitetura]

Chris, you were a wave of love

[@flewggle]

I like this video because I love Soundgarden, My Wave is one of my faves, and Jimmy Fallon wasnt involved.

[@Goatchild90]

My favourite Soundgarden song

[@macarenab8242]

I miss him

[@liselorebrosens5778]

Look at Mat: The proof deummers can never sit still for a second

[@michaelblaine6494]

Ironic considering his name😉

[@BlowUpTheOutsideWorld]

@@michaelblaine6494 huh

[@SuperLioness81]

Doesn't necessarily have to do with the fact he's a drummer.

[@tophat2002]

Cool seeing them together

[@thatonedude675]

I was about to make a comment of how old they look and suddenly Chris says "When we wrote the Star Spangled Banner', and I had nothing else to say.

[@soulriverdogs]

I have some shocking and terrible news....we all age and we all die. Sorry to break it to you so suddenly ;-)

[@acarlovonsexron1994]

Someone says my words are out of balance Nothing to say Dying words I bury everyday Nothing to say You've got nothing to say, nothing to say NOTHING BUT THE ONE THING!..... AAAAAGGGGHH!!!!!!

[@generation9036]

Carlo Von Sexron Best SG song ever.

[@generation9036]

Gotta say though, Matt and Chris have both aged quite elegantly. And Kim will always look like a god as long as he has the beard.

[@BlowUpTheOutsideWorld]

@@generation9036 Kim looks basically the same, only greyer.

[@mikey41rules]

I was so happy to see my favorite band on the tonight show, getting the deluxe set in a couple of days. Great interview, although I feel like the star spangled banner was lacking in the chorus.

[@BrianaMontoyaJaggli]

Soundgarden!! Thank you, Jimmy Fallon.

[@carlosalvador3926]

my favorite track from superunknown!

[@averyadrian1534]

He’s looks so the reluctant front man /rockstar

[@trevorjalla]

At times like this Chris looks somewhere between Robert Downey Jr and one of Philip's disguises in The Americans.

[@BlowUpTheOutsideWorld]

It's the goatee.

[@danielblauw618]

That's a huge fucking riff that song: SOUNDGARDEN the only band that matters

[@ryanwebb3817]

RIP Chris

[@shellylavigne5913]

Another handsome guy in heaven

[@flipnap2112]

I reverse engineered that chorus and its so simple yet complex. it took a while to realize a part was actually a guitar and not Cornells voice.sounded like they sampled his voice screaming but was a guitar chord. I have a feeling they purposely ran the same chain of distortion on his voice as the guitar, they melt together. the dance between the left and right channels is masterfully engineered. the mix is really amazing. real sweet dance back and forth where things sound like something they're not. like im still not sure if they used a slide on the guitar or it was just the mix. but its such a sweet chorus section. very uplifting.

[@AL_1991]

sure thing champ

@@AL_1991 not sure I follow the sarcasm. did I offend you with something I said?

I 💕 LOVE it when people descriptively try to explain music production. I can't wait to relisten now and see if I can hear more or at least what you are illuminating

[@cliffsta87337]

RIP chris. :(

That was funny. Who else is in the mood for some sound garden now?? The day I triiiied to liiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiive

I wish they kept the "Balloons are bursting".😄

So that's what bands do when waiting it come on stage.

[@christhayil8354]

Chris is sooooooo missed!

[@vcval]

Kim Thayil did Guitar Noodles on Naked And Famous, song kicked ass , well so did the whole album

[@song6garden]

That crooked switch could really mess with your sense of balance in the moment you unstraightened all those damn pictures- ya know!

[@xLuckyLissyx143]

Loveee

[@NicolasTylerDoyle]

he needs to reignite Audioslave and burn that gasoliiiiiiiinnneeee

[@blackturkdog]

no. he wasn't a perfect fit with Audioslave. that's not his sound. And guess what? audio (the members of RATM) prettymuch down themselves down to accomodate his talent. soundgarden and RAGE are 2 different entities with each group excelling in their own right. you can't elements of both to create something artisic. "Cochise" as much as I love it is basically a demo. I see more Rick Rubin on Audio's albums than the any presence of Chris .

[@NicolasTylerDoyle]

blackturkdog im just 21, to give you some context, so for me i found audioslave first and then pandora of course suggested soundgarden after the fact. for me i love the mixture of audioslave. the whole vibe fits for me and my taste. but i can imagine for maybe older folks like yourself and others who grew up in the late 80s and 90s to think rage and soundgarden to be superior. i suppose its subjective.

[@mireiification]

***** Far, far better!! Audioslave isn't bad, on the contrary, but many songs sound the same. Audioslave and Soundgarden are not even comparable. I'm a Soundgarden fan from 1992. :)

[@adamturner1563]

Fuck!..These comments make me sad.

Chris is not resting in peace. He is still doing work down here. Tap into his frequency and get it.

[@fcallophoto]

Yeah, you know...you could have recorded this with a handsfree and I would have sounded better.

[@DavidePennaAudiorizonStudio]

I love this album so much! And Chris was for sure one of the best rock singers of all time. Sometimes I try to cover him and... here it is my cover of this song, a little tribute to a giant band: kzbin.info/www/bejne/ppqugHitpq6Fq8U

[@WildSkyMtn]

Watch matt and chris appear to become frustrated when Kim interrupts chris' flow towards the end. Interesting.

[@Ariel_thenotsolittlemermaid]

You're imagining things lol Just watched it again to check, and they don't seem frustrated or angry at all

[@rustysmittyful]

Shouldn't Matt Cameron be on tour with Pearl Jam right now?

[@song6garden]

No Russell, he is where he should be- with SOUNDfcknGARDEN!!

[@lukelarsson]

song6garden What's funny is that he's been with Pearl Jam the same amount to time as he's been with Soundgarden. I like that they can share him.
