FIRST TIME HEARING Audioslave - Like a Stone | REACTION

[@mikefetterman6782]

He was also with the members of Pearl Jam for a stint with TEMPLE OF THE DOG (side project while in Soundgarden 1991)

[@whipporwillssong2256]

"Cochise" and "Show Me How To Live" are two more of my favorites.

[@gramps6334]

Chris was incredible. So unique a voice doesn't come along very often. A gift that perished too soon. RIP!

[@randallphobia8698]

Absolutely! He deserves to be mentioned alongside such amazing singers as Freddy Mercury, Anne Wilson, Paul Rogers, & Roger Daltry. He had the best voice out of the grunge bands.

[@brianowens8198]

"Say Hello to Heaven" is a Chris Cornell masterpiece!

[@marksummers1700]

Chris Cornell had one of the greatest voices in rock music history....!!!!!!!!

[@jons3808]

Amen to that!

[@karenmikalofsky5287]

Cochise by Audioslave is 🔥

[@nancymjohnson]

Tom Morello on guitar is amazing as well. Audioslave is Rage Against The Machine with Chris on vocals. He was fab in Soundgarden as well.

[@joeheffernan5268]

His solo song "Nearly Forgot my Broken Heart". One of his Best solo song ever in my opinion. He was a great talent, that was lost to soon. RIP Chris

[@timtam79]

That's my favorite of his solo work.

[@DeppBaleFan]

I had the privilege of meeting Chris Cornell with Audioslave back in 2007. I won VIP tickets, that MySpace held back in the day, to their show. 3 lucky winners (with + 1) from every country. So I was 1 of the 3 from Sweden 🇸🇪 that won! I couldn’t believe it. Still don’t to this day. I got to see them perform + go backstage for pix and autographs.. 😍 I brought my lillsis with me. So she could take some pix. I had gotten my first tattoo about 6 months prior to this, and the band really liked it and it was the talk of the moment. Really nice dudes. Chris was little quieter than the rest of the band members. But he was really kind and signed a promo pic of him, then rest of the members signed too.. So I have it at home. But never framed it. Never got my mind to do it. Then Chris passed away.. RIP🙏🏻 I think I’m gonna frame it this weekend, bc of watching you listening to AudioSlave.. Brings back memories when I discovered them, but back then..😊 Thanx for a great reaction! Plz react to more AudioSlave! Lots of great songs!🙌🏻 🇸🇪Greetings from one of the suburbs in Stockholm, Sweden 🇸🇪

[@stephaniewashburn7700]

Nobody sings like you anymore 😢 rest In sweet paradise KING

[@Bekka_Noyb]

One of the greatest rock vocalist! ♥ Chris Cornell! My fave Audioslave song! ♥ You gotta check out *Soundgarden - My Wave*

[@travismitchell9637]

Chris has 4-Octave range so these runs are insane. First time I heard him sing "Beyond the Wheel" in 89, I was blown away didn't even know that was possible. Chris is just better he can sing in any era and sound amazing. I think you nailed it Soundgarden was the bridge between Rock and the beginning of the grunge era.

[@sourgir-wh6xd]

🤘🏻😎 Don't forget his other band...Temple Of The Dog..😍

[@johnfarley4492]

I Am The Highway lyric video. It's Dope.

[@stevenmonte7397]

Cochise is a FIRE video. It was the perfect way to introduce Audioslave to the world.

[@brandonwooten1425]

I AM THE HIGHWAY!!!

[@GregorysBrain]

You need to check out Temple of The Dog "Hunger Strike", which is another Chris Cornell group. The song also features Eddie Vedder from Pearl Jam.

[@farvadafatazz2274]

Chis was a very SINGULAIR talent. Unmatched and unrivaled. Rest well brother 😢

[@tinagilbert8902]

LOVE your reaction Salvo and yes... you have been sleeping on Chris! Damn, he was such a beautiful soul and has such a beautiful (and rocking) catalogue!! Please continue with Chris in Soundgarden, Temple of The Dog, Audioslave and his solo works... it's all nothing but magic. I saw a quote somewhere by Morgan Freeman where he said "Musicians are modern day prophets"... when it comes to Chris Cornell and the guys of Grunge, I believe that firmly! Beautiful reaction Salvo! Thank you for sharing it with us!!🥰 I recommend you go back to the beginning for Chris in Soundgarden. My vote: "OUTSHINED" next. It's a rocking tune, the vid kicks azz and the lyrics are timeless!!!💯💯💯 Sneak peak on the lyrics to "Outshined"... "I'm looking California but feeling Minnesota"- Chris Cornell P.S. It's not a "twang", it's a "yarl" and VERY prominent in Grunge vocalists. They sing with a deep guttural, grungy, dirty messy vocal style and typically lean in on consonants esp. N's and G's. You literally feel every word. Chris and Eddie Vedder were/are the masters of it. Grunge is as real as it gets.!! RIP Chris... "No one sings like you anymore"❤

[@richnorcal]

Legend...I hope his vocals live forever. The place this video was shot was once a home owned by Jimi Hendreix

[@EchoesDaBear]

Better late than never Salvo! This supergroup was fire! Don't forget Chris' first 'supergroup' Temple Of The Dog, a response to the death of Chris' friend Andrew Wood. Members of Pearl Jam & Soundgarden making a killer rock album. Songs like: Push In Forward Back, Say Hello 2 Heaven, Hunger Strike are all musts!

[@mikefetterman6782]

The grunge movement of the 90s was a direct harken back to the early 70s in blues based guitar rock. Audioslave was a last gasp of true rock and roll in an age of autotune, Brittany, and boy bands. Even in fashion, the bell bottoms were back, long haired 'hippie chicks" and a lot of other late 60s and early 70s comebacks. I miss the 90s musically, (a great answer to the bubble gum pop 80s)

[@xScooterAZx]

I was living in Olympia,Washington when the Grunge movement began and on through Kurt Cobains death.

[@willstegall2527]

This song is fire. Had totally forgotten about it!!

[@crazydale1000]

A generational voice. RIP

[@sharonchaput9705]

Chris Cornell was one if my favorite singers. Audioslave was a great band andxhe was also in Soundgarden. Please listen to solo Chris Cornell playing acoustic guitar in his very unique cover of Billie Jean and Nothing Compares to You, as well as Like a Stone and Highway. RIP

[@philthemovieguy81]

*I Am The Highway* by Audioslave is another must to listen to.

[@karenmikalofsky5287]

His remake of Michael Jackson’s Billie Jean will blow your mind.

[@tresianyfb5865]

After pearl jam the effect of voice was refered to as the "yarl" some had a natural but some were pure mimics

[@w.geoffreyspaulding6588]

Huh…never have heard that term before…but did notice that all the grunge singers seemed to have a similar style of vocals. Is that the “official” term for that effect?

[@tresianyfb5865]

@@w.geoffreyspaulding6588 no clue lol but I've heard ref couple times

[@stevedahlberg8680]

It's fun to watch you discovering it. A long time ago in my hometown of Lawrence Kansas, there was a venue that really kind of took off, and it was a combination of local music like the bands that I played in, but it also brought in all kinds of interesting stuff from across the country but in certain times maybe all over the world. Plus not to mention that we had the Outhouse out there in the country for the punk scene and there was more overlap than you would think. But at any rate I remember seeing Soundgarden they're in the early days and I rate it as one of my loudest decibel conference experiences for that venue. Social D came close as well. This is an absolutely brilliant song but check out his acoustic stuff that he did mostly after this, it's incredible. A lot of fantastic covers and a lot of just mind-blowing Originals. Also he contributed track to a documentary about refugees and it's called oh, the promise. It is paired with video from the documentary and it is a gut-punch but it's very positive at the end. To really understand how talented he was, check out the James Bond movie theme that he contributed. Casino Royale. I strongly believe that Chris Cornell was one of the greatest singers of at least a couple Generations around this time.

[@grendelz]

One of my favorite CC songs. Great writing. Not to mention Rage just understated killing it.

[@mjdaniel8710]

This whole album, great stuff

[@Tracylynn1121]

Chris is the voice of my generation. Beautiful & haunting. You should try ‘I am the highway” and “doesn’t remind me”. He sings those songs beautifully.

[@Mia.Mooncat]

I agree "i am the Highway" is wonderful.

[@SPGhettus]

Soundgarden was one of the Big Four of grunge, with Nirvana, Pearl Jam, and Alice in Chains. Their _Badmotorfinger_ album dropped not long after _Nevermind_ and "Smells Like Teen Spirit" brought grunge to the forefront. "Outshined" was the first Soundgarden single, if you want to hear the way us old-timers were introduced to the band. They were known for creating complex hard rock, with frequent use of unusual time signatures, tunings, and arrangements. Kim Thayil's work is more idiosyncratic than any lead guitarist I have ever known. Audioslave was much more traditional, staying with 4/4 timing and more typical rock guitar work.

[@tomvaccaro324]

COCHISE is a must bro!

[@anyony4476]

Audioslave has some other great songs but focus more on Cornell. Not only a voice but a creative genius. He was the creative force behind Soundgarden, Temple of the Dog, Audioslave, and multiple solo projects including movie singles. Check out the songs : Hunger Strike, Say Hello to Heaven, Burden in my Hand, Seasons (in Studio), Sunshower, many many more worthwhile..

[@dobbytwostep9527]

Such a great band, what a combo they made together.

[@zekemcclurg805]

Soundgarden Outshined, Rusty Cage

[@bradt8019]

He has a unplugged version of this song that's even better, "in my opinion", great vocals! ☝️😏👍 Great reaction.

[@davidleach4689]

My favorite rock vocalist of all time his solo music is great soundgarden is epic and audioslave is incredible you have a lot of music to experience everything Chris sang was epic

[@cyrilmauras4247]

One of my all time favorite songs and group.

[@FrugalPCOG]

When the band auditioned him they knew right away he had a special voice. Stone Temple Pilots knew it too.

[@catherineday951]

Chris was amazing in every incarnation. As he got older his voice took on even more depth of emotion, without losing the range or power. He was such a talent. So many great songs in his career. Not Audioslave but just a couple of my faves that show what he could do are Rusty Cage and Sweet Euphoria. (Too many others to list)

[@Mia.Mooncat]

Chris Cornell is THE legend. Most ppl of my generation listened to linkin park in the early 2000. Not me. I felt in love with Soundgarden and Audioslave and later of course the solo songs from Chris. I'm still feeling this songs so much and a small part of myself died when he was gone 💔🕯️

[@kimberlytuten8262]

The ones that get in your head and won't go away. Thank you for this.

[@Una...]

I am the Highway is a great one!

[@iammine7325]

I love how his voice builds through the song, Awesome!

[@kendallneason3645]

Love this song. Chris is my second favorite singer of all time. Freddie Mercury being my favorite. Chris Cornell had an incredible voice. RIP 😢. Such talent.

[@tonyseccia]

Listen to soundgarden, temple of the dog, and his solo work. Before audioslave he was in those two other bands in the 90s.

[@MikeOstrowski-iq8wf]

Chris Cornell is worth the long intro…….❤ He is my favorite vocalist. I had the privilege to see them back together as Soundgarden in 2014,with NIN 🔥🔥🔥 I miss him dearly ❤️ Great reaction as always, I love how you do your information intro to your music keep it up. “I Am The Highway” 🙏🏻

[@louisecouch2127]

He has great solo work also. "Seaons" is from the Singles movie Soundtrack I think its pretty amazing. You should check out Jesus Christ Pose or Rusty Cage from the Soundgarden days. My fave Sound garden song is Entering....super early song.

[@robinhoyt5065]

To get another side of him, try cochise ( like the Indian name)

[@karenmikalofsky5287]

Yes! It’s 🔥

[@katiegwynn4495]

Great song! If you're up for a suggestion or request from the peanut gallery, check out Rusty Cage by Soundgarden!

[@clab5864]

Video was recorded in a Spanish mansion, Silver Lakes L.A., where Hendrix once llived. Super vibes in those walls!!

[@celticwind99]

You should check out his solo album, Euphoria Morning, his range is amazing.

[@sourgir-wh6xd]

🤘🏻😜💭 Another singer's voice that'll impress you is Scott Weiland and his band Stone Temple Pilots❤ Definitely check them out. Their most popular song is Interstate Love Song. But also their song Creep and my personal favorites Sour Girl (like my name lol) and Big Empty which was in the Brandon Lee movie The Crow❤

[@socalnitro]

It doesn’t hurt to have Rage Against the Machine crew in this Supergroup

[@drainbramagebrandon1047]

All his music has an awesome sound! Great reaction video!

[@GaryKirkham-ju8gw]

Especially love the instrumental passage and the warmer feel to the vocal/melody following ... that's beautiful ... I know you'd like "Show Me How To Live" as a follow-up SalvoG... what's not to like about a car-chase? its a breath-taking banger!

[@cynthiamartinez9669]

My favorite! Great reaction.

[@dgodfrey8953]

Soundgarden, Audioslave, duets, covers, whatever, this is by far my favorite Chris Cornell song.

[@jons3808]

Slaves & Bulldozers from Soungarden’s Badmotorfinger will blow your mind. The vocal performance is beyond incredible. I remember when it came out my brother and I were listening to it and we couldn’t believe our ears.

[@stephendennis5911]

I've always liked the guitar riff of this song

[@ssvr3dl1n38]

Thanks for reacting to my favourite song of all time Salvo 🙏 It still gives me goose-bumps/chicken-skin hearing this song even after hearing it for hundreds of times already. For me, the whole song runs off Tim Commeford's bass. The switch from electric to acoustic guitar by Tom Morello later in the track also works really well. I would recommend "Show Me How To Live" as the next track to listen to, it's a banger............as is Cochise (pronounced 'co-cheese').

[@ohbejuankenobi663]

This song stabilized mw when I was way younger and going through the breakup with "the love of my life" I took it as don't let her see you cry and don't give her an inch. She wanted this. Also super amazing song.

[@ptxaholic]

Yay!! So glad you liked ❤❤❤

[@Xo_keeks]

AND THE SCREAM SHIRT!! 🙌🏼 If you haven’t, you should check out Chris’ version of “Nothing Compares 2 U.”

[@johndef5075]

Show Me How to Live is the banger on this album. Cool vid too.

[@brendaotoole4012]

Dude! Chris is the best! On all the lists of top rock vocalists ever! So much to explore between his 3 bands and great solo career. Check out this song live at AOL. Sooo amazing. Just Chris with an acoustic guitar. Then check out Soundgarden’s Slaves and Bulldozers. You won’t believe it’s the same man. Plus he wrote pretty much all the songs for all his bands😊❤

[@LydellC]

Chris Cornell was pure talent + charisma -- the GOAT rock singer ♥️🔥 Whether solo, with Soundgarden, Temple of the Dog, or Audioslave - it's all amazing! A true unicorn -- brilliant lyricist, talented multi-instrumentalist, melody making machine... and an unparalleled vocalist with a 4+ octave range. Mastered many styles and techniques...singing with raw emotion and genuine feeling. Chk out: -Say Hello to Heaven -Seasons -When I'm Down -Outshined -I Am the Highway -Show Me How to Live -Cochise -Beyond the Wheel -Tighter and Tighter -Rusty Cage -Like Suicide -Nothing Compares to You -Slaves and Bulldozers ... the list goes on and on. ♥️🔥
