Soundgarden 1992 Interview

[@evekurocieru]

I love how Chris is always somewhere between indifferent and awkward..he's the best

[@MGKBOSTON]

Your comment is perfect!

[@MegaLotusEater]

Indeed. But he's also really funny. Its such a strangely endearing yet unlikely combination

[@valbrown1464]

That's true! He always seems to be somewhere between awkward & indifferent.....yet he always seems sincere & unassuming too. It makes me so sad to watch videos of him & the band he was playing with. How great they all were! And how great was the Grunge Scene in Seattle. It made me wanna stop whatever i was doing - like vacuuming - and next thing u know i was stomping around in tune w the music to early Soundgarden tunes. Thus some parts of the carpet really got every speck of funk sucked away; other areas i barely touched. Then there were the times when I was on the kitchen tile.........holding MY Swiffer mop up m like a microphone stand..... thanking our imaginary audiences. Of course it was me & the guys playing; not just Soundgarden itself. And thank God there are no pictures of this. But i see the videos all over UTube now ......see them playing.......and cant help but reflect back to what i was doing when i heard that song. It's so bittersweet.........to think that this awful money grubbing woman took him away from us forevermore. I hope KARMA hurries up when it comes to HER.

[@rausheancolgan5104]

Brilliant Human bottom line.

[@vancouverkristy]

@@MGKBOSTON, he's never awkward. Just very dry Northwest humor.

[@mariamclaughlin5970]

I think he's absolutely a beautiful man.

[@michellemartin1775]

Yes he was and this is how I will remember him always. #weremember! May 18,2018.

[@rogerrobie2451]

Soundgarden's music has aged so much better than GnR

[@PutinosauRUS]

Technically, GN'R have a bunch of songs which are always on setlist. They add some new songs, some some solos but it's about 10 songs which are always there. SG was more interesting band with a huge list of songs to choose from.

[@johnulcer]

They are/were very different bands, so it's not exactly a fair comparison imo. Soundgarden was on the cusp of a new sound in the 90s (grunge/alternative rock), whereas GNR were a conscious throwback to older blues-based hard rock like the Stones, Aerosmith, Jeff Beck, et al. They were both terrific bands in their own right and I'm glad I don't feel a need to directly compare them and rather can just enjoy their music.

[@BonaldDrump]

i agree

[@mikeyaldo5704]

for sure

[@sac97311]

Very true. GnR was one of the last in a long line of glam rockers. Soundgarden was one of the first among grunge rockers (who essentially replaced glam rock entirely from what I remember)🤔

[@entertain7us148]

i dunno about sexual tension, but they both seem pretty stoned. i love how the interviewer's like 'seriously?' and chris goes 'yeah...' like waddya mean? of course catering's the best part!

[@vishnu2407]

They're definitely stoned or drunk or something Look at Kim at the beginning lol

"Catering." Pause. "Seriously?" "Yeah.." love it.

[@MrPulimen]

That "Yeah..." Was really sexy.

[@applejellypucci]

Indeed.

[@MrPulimen]

When he said "Yeah...", she looked at the camera because obviously the answer turned her on. I've been analyzing her reaction a week ago.

[@applejellypucci]

Well, look at that curtain of long dark hair billowing in the wind, foxy eyes behind sunglasses, and his voice that performs acrobatic feats. Chris just oozes animal magnetism. It's quite a sexy package.

[@MrPulimen]

And that's why everyone can tell that she was ready to fuck with Chris cornell as we are.

@@eternity68 I agree!!! For me Chris Cornell, Chester Bennington & Warrel Dane were the ones that hit the HARDEST!!! They are all amazing in their own right and they are my absolute musical heroes, of which I have many! And ALL deserve the truth to come to light, as many more do (Kurt, Layne, Scott, Amy Winehouse, etc etc)! Justice for these beautiful souls! May they Rock In Paradise..

I am a model and in the modeling industry so I see male models everyday walking past me on the runway and believe me, they don't hold a candle to the beauty of Chris Cornell!

aw thank you chantal. I would like to get my hair to Chris's length however my hair is more straight so i'm worried it wont look as good. What do you think?

[@piaparadis1253]

Hi Alex, i am sorry it took a little while to get back to you!! I just now saw your message.Well, I have always been a fan of guys with long hair. Straight or curly, it doesn't matter! I love that long, rock- n- roll look, it is super sexy! But you have to make sure you take care of it if you want to make it grow. If you want it to grow fast, here are some tips: Take gelatin supplements every day, they come in little capsules and you take them just like vitamins. They will make sure hair thicker and stronger and less likely to break off so it will stay long. Take a multivitamin and vitamin c every day as well. Drink lots of water too, all of that will make your hair grow really fast and keep it healthy. Make sure to wash and condition it at least every 4 days. Conditioner,a really good one, is the key!. I hope that helps sweetie!! If you want to, you can come on over to my google page anytime and chat, If you have an account, i will add you to my friends list. It was very nice to meet you Alex and chat with you! From Paris with love, Chantal

[@staceyjaneway4000]

Back in 1989 or 1990 i had wrote the fan club so much like every day how much i loved them and how much they helped me and things like that. Eventually around 1991 maybe 1992 around my birthday which is April, well i got like 3 huge posters of Chris Cornell and sound garden and they had all signed it, and a very exclusive black and white photo and I about shit my pants. Writing fir years had paid off. Then my big brother threw a party and all my shit was destroyed and it breaks my heart today i mean this man sang to me my entire life i would live to just show that poster and it said thanks for staying true, and my name like my actual name. But would live to have it and just have the shit now. It's heart breaking.

[@rajawi5828]

[@dfdrye]

It's funny how many times people will comment that they think an artist was drunk, high, or stoned during an interview. Most of the time I think people are just saying that because entertainers are typically thought of as drug users. However, in this case, both of these guys were baked out of their gourds.

[@FawazK]

Take this advice "great" gazu...you are entitled to your opinion as everybody else so if you wanna discus something and prove your point is right you shouldn't act like that 'cause you make the whole effort pointless. You are not going to convince anybody even if you are right and I guess that's what you want,convencing people Guns are great and Soundgarden sucks. Its not going to happen like that. Or were you just venting some of your daily frustrations? Try being less angry and frustrated,be a little bit more open,polite and yes,don't insult people it is totally useless and spoils the whole debate atmosphere. Maybe that way you'll convert Soundgarden fans into Guns fans.

When I see Kim I imagine some creepy Turkish guy or something. He has really big eyes and the bushy eyebrows and the beard just add to his creepiness. I think I am mostly drawn to Soundgarden based on their sound. Lyrically I barely know what the funk is going on in many of the songs. It's just really cool to hear Kim wailing on the guitar as Cornell yells in a voice that Robert Plant could be envious of. And such great drumming by Matt. Ben's booming bass. Rock on dudes.
