    Chris Cornell became a god post Soundgarden. I will not debate this. His 2011 Album songbook of all his songs, done live acoustically, cemented him as the greatest lead vocalist ever in my opinion. When you strip away the band, and his voice stands alone with just the soft touch of the acoustic guitar, he soars to unimageable heights.

    It is genuinely sad to hear him sing these songs considering he is not with us anymore. I saw him in an acoustic set a year before his passing where he had requested that no alcohol he permitted during the concert. During the concert he explained a lot of the reasons why, you really felt for him. What a great man, a great voice and great talent. Miss you man.

    Listen to anything from "Songbook" if you liked this, just Chris and his guitar. I was lucky enough to see him tour for this album in Detroit, Dec. 4 2011. He was set up just how you see him here. Unassuming, no rock star shit. Just a big persian rug, surrounded by guitars. He was wearing a white t-shirt and jeans. Opened with "What's so Funny Bout Peace, Love and Understanding." He interacted with the crowd by telling a few brief stories in between songs. I have seen a lot of concerts in my life. Including Soundgarden at Lollapalooza but never a lead singer doing their thing alone, no one backing them. And you're right, the connection with him and the crowd, just a man, his voice and guitar was amazing. It was so personal (and more endearing if that's even possible) to hear him sing songs I've heard before without the extra noise of the other instruments hiding him. You could hear more of the power, pain and nuance that make him who he is. It was only a few years later we lost him, in Detroit of all places. I almost went to that concert as well but life got in the way. I wish I had gotten to see him one last time. I miss you old friend.♥️

The GOAT of rock singers past present and most likely the future! At his prime he had no limits, ability wise! The Stevie ray Vaughn of singers, being able to physically match his abilities with his emotions, seemingly effortlessly

    What an emotionally complex gentleman. Hindsight's 20/20, but so many of his lyrics now sound like desperate pleas for help... Tell your family and friends how much they mean to you, every chance you get. While listening, Chris Stapleton's 'Sometimes I Cry' came to mind. Would love to hear Stapleton cover some Cornell material. I believe he'd do it justice. Be Blessed, SIR!

    • @alext2566
      @alext2566 3 роки тому

      I don't see them as pleas. He had access to resources.
      I think he dealt with it for a really long time, trying to find relief wherever he could drugs, alcohol, family. Mostly through music.
      He was close to that point between Euphoria Mourning and Audioslave.
      He seemed worn down and he definitely was on some sort of drug for the few months before his death. He was way out of it, during live performances.
      Perhaps his go to solaces weren't working very well anymore.
      No one will know for sure.
