My First Soundgarden Experience | Outshined |

[@bjcee1108]

Chris dealt with anxiety and depression. Amazing singer, and a good guy. He is missed. 😢

[@iancollins65]

Chris Cornell is one of the greatest voices of this generation! He has about a 4 octave range and has so much power when he wants it. Over 30 years since this was released and it still sounds relevant and deep. RIP Chris!!! Your music lives on forever.

[@nickforell1]

Badass voice!

[@kabboud]

You have to mention his unparalleled song writing. Yes, his voice/range/singing/arrangements were epic but his lyrics were deep and timeless! Hands down best singer-songwriter of our generation.

[@FloridaRocks]

"Say Hello to Heaven" Temple of the Dog (Chris and members of Mother Love Bone ((soon to become Pearl Jam)) made this incredible tribute to their singer, Andy Wood, who ODed). One of Chris Cornell's best imo. R.I.P.

[@jamesdavisjr6937]

Apple is such a great albumn too

[@charlesroberts8803]

Far behind by Candle Box is also about Andrew.

[@Jewlsterz]

"Right Turn" on the S.A.P. EP is a short but amazing song with Chris Cornell, Layne Staley, Jerry Cantrell, and I think one other guy whose name escapes me right now. The harmonies of their voices is pure magic

[@stevenmonte7397]

Nobody can out sing Chris! Soundgarden and Audioslave are amazing! Anything he did was great!

[@Brando_Magnifico]

Everything but Audioslave! Its like metallica after justice. Sssstupid

[@MrClewis97]

Listen to Richie Kotzen or him in the Winery Dogs. I have found that to be the second-best replacement. He sounds so much like Chris it is scary.

[@bradleydevaughn8889]

@@MrClewis97You beat me to it! Richie could easily step into CC’s shoes - no disrespect. RK is also a ripping, world class guitar player!

[@nickforell1]

Phenomenal stuff!

[@MrClewis97]

@@bradleydevaughn8889 Justin Hawkins asked him about it. He said he would consider writing new material with them but didn't want to try to fill any shoes. Classy dude. Amazing guitarist!

[@IrishGuitarGaz]

And down the Chris Cornell rabbit hole you go ............ generally most people start off being impressed and intrigued by his voice on first listen, and 30 or 40 songs later, generally agreeing he's one of the greatest rock vocalists who ever lived. So much good material from him to choose from - his Soundgarden stuff, Audioslave stuff, solo stuff and more.

[@dianaanzaldua8958]

Bad Motorfinger was my very first CD... luvvvv it ❤

[@gabriellenojaim261]

I agree...though I can't be sure he'd surpass Geoff Tate from Queensryche...

[@lisajohnson521]

Chris isn't know as 'The Voice" among his peers for no reason LOL One of THE BEST to do it!

[@matthewgoodA1206]

Nobody had a voice like Chris Cornell, in rock or otherwise. His vocal power, range and ability to scream remain unmatched.

[@WrenTaylor1016]

Chris was one of a kind. He is dearly missed.

[@MagesLikeYouAndI]

This song came out in 1991. Since you've heard Soundgarden and Pearl Jam, the next logical step is to react to Hunger Strike by Temple of the Dog so you can hear Eddie and Chris singing together!

[@rogueleader4181]

Looking California. Feeling Minnesota. Im looking sunny but feeling cold inside. Not a slam against the great state of Minnesota. One of the most powerful vocalists ever. RIP CC.

[@jacobjones5269]

Hes got the chills, yo… He’s jonesing..

[@xScooterAZx]

Chris was rather tall,at 6'2". I met him in Seattle,in a pub beneath an overpass. My friend got him to come see me on my B'day. I didnt know and was sitting there at the bar when he came up behind me .I suddenly saw him in the big mirror on the back wall. I almost passed out. He was so tall and lithe.And just sooo nice. Great memory that I have.

[@aurelielagrange2173]

Jealous! Chris Cornell was the one true soulmate I never met.

[@mindriot91_96]

Kim Thayil's guitar 😍😍😍😍😍

[@flyingardilla143]

I lived in Minnesota when this came out. When that lyric would come up, I would think 'hey Chris, I'm already struggling and trying to maintain optimism and you equate my home with feeling shitty'.

[@sarahzentexas]

I always thought he meant he felt frozen. Like International Falls level cold, iced out. I never thought it was about the whole state being bad.

[@faceplantor5647]

Looking warm, feeling cold 🤔

[@Jax52reg]

I think of Minnesota as a warm and friendly place. I found California pretentious and fake. I don’t think he meant anything bad about Minnesota.

[@nancymjohnson]

This grunge rabbit hole is the best you’ll find! Started in Seattle around 90. ☮️❤️

[@RickityRawDawg]

Top 3 rock vocalist of all time. He had the craziest range. Gotta check out, day i tried to live, and slaves and bulldozers

[@UPROAR1]

One of my all time faves! Sadly missed! I'm 58 and grew up on all great music from the 60's on up. We have lost way too many great lengendary artists! Can't wait for that great gig in the sky! Rock on!!!

[@Scintillant_Rationality]

Chris Cornell is the singer. One of the best vocalists of our time! Love Soundgarden, saw them in concert just a few years before he passed. Felt so lucky to have witnessed this powerhouse on stage. He was in a few bands well worth checking out, including Audioslave and Temple of the Dog. Would love to see you react to Audioslaves' song Like a Stone. And Say Hello to Heaven is a very deep personal song Cornell wrote about the suicide of one of his friends

[@luissalinas6938]

“ I’m gonna break my rusty cage…!,& run! “ gotta do that one next🎉🎉

[@nancymjohnson]

Jesus Christ Pose also incredible

[@anthonydawson8080]

Spoonman. Yeah I know it’s surface level but it’s still awesome

[@eggstu]

Soundgarden and Chris Cornell are amazing and made some amazing music. It's probably not good for KZbin reactions due to the name but a really good song you should hear is the acoustic version (and studio) of "Like Suicide". It's a song he wrote when he saw a bird hit his window and broke its neck and he had to kill it. It's incredibly good with a unique story behind it

[@fgrillo29]

Chris Cornell is the best voice of this generation. His range is unmatched. Soundgarden were seen as the Led Zeppelin of Grunge. He did an album with the members of Pearl Jam under the name Temple of the Dog. Later on, he fronted Audioslave when Soundgarden broke up. He also had a fantastic solo career. He is truly missed. His death hit me so hard. Check out Say Hunger Strike, Fell On Black Days and Black Hole Sun.

[@elenaorujev3494]

Chris was amazing! Please check out Say Hello 2 Heaven as part of Temple of the Dog!!❤

[@purplescorp]

You reckon that was a scream? Try Cochise when he was with Audioslave. And be ready to fall off your chair!

[@garysimonson1135]

Awesome reaction! This song and video are both from 1991. Part of the Seattle Grunge movement.

[@tiawarren5403]

Bush, Hole,Stone Temple Pirates, Pearl Jam, Nirvana, Soundgarden.. neccesary grunge music to hear!

[@jduncanandroid]

The next closest I can recommend to this in terms of power and vibe is 'Cochise' when he was with Audioslave

[@stevenmonte7397]

Chris doing Beyond the Wheel song 8 of 8 in Germany April 16, 1990... One of his best performances EVER!

[@Johnstrk33]

100% glad someone else sees that as well. His vocals and uncover-able !

[@tatushhimekuro]

You need to listen to Birth Ritual 🎉 Also give Queensryche if you like vocals. Jet City Woman is my fave. That and the entire Operation:Mindcrime album❤

[@SleepingTiger-vlog]

I love Soundgarden for all the band members too. Chris is amazing but it wouldn't be my favorite without them.

[@vaughnnewman8903]

No one sings like him anymore.

[@RJ-qo6qj]

I'm finding that many of those who are new to the avalanche of new/nu rock in the 90's - especially the first half of the decade - are stunned/shocked because they quite literally didn't know music could be this dynamic, intense, meaningful, cool, and other adjectives...

[@mikekrause910]

Nu metal is early 2000's dude.

[@Jewlsterz]

I was in my late teens and early 20's through the 90's. It was like every month more of this amazing, badass music was released. Then the 2000's came in with the boy bands. Great music became more and more rare from then to this day

[@ixchelmalinche4864]

Chris once said that when he wrote this song it had to do with the fact that he could look very carefree and happy like a stereotypical California beachgoer, but that’s not how he felt inside.

[@SunshineGelb]

Grunge forever and ever.😃 Greetings from Mexico City.

[@Fuphyter]

Chris Cornell's catalog of songs is mind blowing. He was an incredible musician, songwriter and next level vocals. Close to 4 octaves. His love of melody shows through a lot. He wrote and performed with his heart and soul. I grew up in the 70s, music is my oxygen. Although I love Soundgarden, Audioslave and Temple Of The Dog, I love Chris' live acoustic shows.

[@carlakane3313]

After watching your reactions for a while, I think you'd really enjoy Burden In My Hand. It gets overlooked but is a musical standout. Thanks for checking them out. I did homecare and hospice nursing for several years and Bad Motorfinger was a go to in my car in the middle of the night, going to death calls and needing to get in the mood to do so. So many nurses are Soundgarden, grunge and metal fans. Dopamine hits to help get through the hard stuff.

[@kentmains7763]

One of the best rock and roll bands I've ever heard.

[@kristimarriner7673]

“I’m looking California and feeling Minnesota” - looking like something I’m just the opposite of. Putting on a beautiful mask hiding the pain inside. Just my interpretation 🤷🏻‍♀️

[@RallyBud]

If you haven't listened yet, Pearl Jam makes sense to discover after Soundgarden. While Nirvana, AIC , Soundgarden, and Pearl Jam are considered grunge, they all have such unique sound and style. Unfortunately, Pearl Jam is the only of the bands with their original frontman (two suicides and an overdose).

[@plantdesigns7889]

Stone Temple Pilots as well. A different sounding grunge outfit and also lost their lead singer. The grunge scene was hard on its members.

[@Monsterdrumma]

Soundgarden to me were the best of the grunge era and are right up there with the Zeppelin era bands.

[@ToddH76]

I have always taken the lyric as a compliment to Minnesota. I always interpreted it as California equals Heavy Metal/Hair Metal...fake plastic cookie cutter music etc.....Minnesota on the other hand in the 80's was home of The Replacements/Husker-Du/The Suburbs/Soul Asylum..etc....Authentic, Gritty, Blue Collar, Punk aesthetic..... There is a line in the Replacements song "Left Of The Dial" that goes like this..."Headed out to San Francisco, Definitely not LA" I always viewed Chris Cornell's line as similar. All just IMO.

Going down the grunge road is heartbreaking with so many talented artists gone too soon. But Chris's death still haunts me. His vocals are insane. Listen to Hunger Strike. Its Chris and Eddie Vedder and its insane. Actually Eddie's first video before Pearl Jam.

This gentleman needs to hear some Audioslave! Soundgarden's song Rusty Cage was covered by Johnny Cash. That's mad props. The sad thing is the front men from 3 of the 4 biggest grunge bands took their own lives.

Or something else happened. But still utterly tragic.

Get as much music from this band. No time will be wasted. Very vauleable.

[@stephenlackey5852]

One of a very few rock songs in 7/4 time. I happen to love both this song and Solsbury Hill by Peter Gabriel.

[@christopherglock7239]

He was the rouge grunge Singer with the most funk, he played with Eddie Vedder in temple of the dog I'm going hungry. So said what happened to Him and Lane from Alice in chains and Wayan from Stone Temple Pilots they were the more psychedelic grunge band, and Kurt from Nirvana 😮. But Eddie from Pearl Jam still around popping up to say hi once in a while. Silver chairs was a young grunge band that had one hit Tomorrow Addressing Australian hard water problems at just 15 years old.
