@@jpegmilitia Dave Grohl isn't exactly the bottom of the pile either. Chris' loss was hard, as was Kurt Cobain and Layne Staley.

Master chef grunge god Chris Cornell. Grilled cheese and pizza was his favorite foods. Mostly pizza Before working at rays boathouse he was a pizza delivery guy. When I was younger I faintly remember being in a line and there was a bunch of old people naked in lines and I was behind a person and we were all facing a brick building. I wonder if my past life last breath on this earth was in a concentration camp
I met Chris in 1989. He wanted to be a rock star and he was. He was a great person and a wonderful song writer, as we know. He feared being irrelevant. He said that to me, a nobody, on Queen Anne, in a living room. I didn't know how great Soundgarden would be or how great this band would play. It's etched on my soul.
Shower in the dark day Clean sparks diving down Cool in the waterway Where the baptized drown Naked in the cold sun Breathing life like fire Thought I was the only one But that was just a lie 'Cause I heard it in the wind And I saw it in the sky And I thought it was the end And I thought it was the fourth of July Pale in the flare light The scared light cracks and disappears And leads the scorched ones here And everywhere no one cares The fire is spreading And no one wants to speak about it Down in the hole Jesus tries to crack a smile Beneath another shovel load 'Cause I heard it in the wind And I saw it in the sky And I thought it was the end And I thought it was the fourth of July Heard it in the wind And I saw it in the sky And I thought it was the end And I thought it was the fourth of July Fourth of July, July Now I'm in control Now I'm in the fall out Once asleep but now I stand And I still remember your sweet everything Light a roman candle And hold it in your hand Heard it in the wind And I saw it in the sky And I thought it was the end And I thought it was the fourth of July Heard it in the wind And I saw it in the sky And I thought it was the end And I thought it was the fourth of July, yeah
One of my biggest wishes in life was too see Sondgarden play this song live. I'm from Argentina and they came just one time in 2014 for Lollapalooza, but didn't play this song. Too bad that's never going to happen now :(
Ima let you finish but AIC has the heaviest grunge records of ALL TIME. People still debate on whether they're a heavy metal band or a grunge band. I say heavy metal with grunge lyrics (Layne era) and leave it at that.
@@DygitalDystopiaRecords You could say that about a lot of the grunge bands. A lot of people say Nirvana was punk, not grunge. Even some people say Soundgarden was psychedelic rock. So idk, due to this, im just gonna cound AIC as grunge if we could nirvana and Soundgarden
So many great songs from this legendary band!! I miss this time in my life! So much great music of the time and history of music! The 90’s music is still better than anything today!!
For Soundgarden to reunite and be playing and putting out new music was incredible. Chris Cornell still sounded amazing, even years later. but I bet after the shows, and when he wasn't working or spending time with his family, Chris Cornell's thoughts of depression probably got to him. when he was alone, he probably found it difficult to quite the noise in his head. he wasn't happy, despite his outward appearance. his death is very sad.
Love and miss that man so much and I didn't even know him. It's amazing how a complete stranger can affect someone's life without knowing. I hope you're rocking up in heaven.
Its a good thing Chris never had to lower the pitch of any of the songs because I dont think the guitars can get any lower without the strings falling off
This man was an oracle...April 1994 Chris took some acid then decided to take a walk down the Native American reservation..lo and behold voices spoke to him comforting feelings attracted like he wasn't alone in a dreamy like conciousness yet whenever he looked back only glimpses of this spirit telling him to listen and write so Cornell did and we have this GLORIOUS MESSAGE we should heed "4th of July" was for us a warning of CERN and its capabilities with the Hadron Collider. ..YES he struggled with depression and substance abuse but he LOVED LIFE he did not take his own life..he was sent here to link us together not tear us apart.. FOREVER GREATFUL RIP CHRIS CORNELL!!!
@@wwefandom771 strong disagree, dirt and jar of flies were the best projects from the entire scene. As a songwriter Cantrell>>anyone else from the scene. Soundgarden kicked ass too tho and made some great music, just think peak layne was the best live singer from the scene and Cantrell the best overall musician.
I'll be honest the first time I heard this song I hated it. But it grew and grew on me and now it is one of the songs I think of the most when I think of Soundgarden and when I remember Chris.
Scott O'Connor Damn, this song was one of the first songs that ever shook me to the core and made me say holy shit this band is the Fucking tits. Mid blunt cruise on the backroads of my town ten years ago my buddy played superunknown all the way through and I’ll never forget hearing this or any of those songs the first time. Love this tune
i always thought Soundgarden was an okay band... But i always rehear albums i dont fully understand, just incase you see it in a new light. And maybe 2months ago, i put on Superunknown album and everything clicked, the band made sense to me. Its an aquired taste that takes more than a few listens to really embrace every second of the music. Even the minimal moments. And thats the beautiful part of this band. And thats my favorite type of music. Mailman was the song that blew me away.
Around 5:18 min mark Surreal moment to see Jimmy Page checking out the band that critics compared to his band, in the early years. A comparison that isn't necessarily unwarranted but also, Soundgarden was their own thing. A different beautiful beast altogether.
Thank you for sharing everything that you have been sharing. Thank you, I would not have been able to see/watch such greatness otherwise, so thank you Wilander, brother you have great taste.
My second favorite track of theirs...Limo Wreck being #1. I wish Soundgarden would do a tour with Ian Thornley of Big Wreck as the vocalist/guitarist. I'd pay $300 to see that show in a f'n heartbeat.
DOWN IN THE HOLE, JESUS TRIES TO CRACK A SMILE, BENEATH ANOTHER SHOVEL LOAD.... God Damn that is some hard ass shit!! I really miss Chris, what a loss for everyone.
![Soundgarden - Limo Wreck [Live At Guitar Center]](/img/n.gif)
Mailman, 4th of July, Beyond The Wheel...are just masterpieces. Such a doom metal feeling.
yes yes yes yes yes yes
This song is what got me into SLEEP, MONOLORD, and STONED JESUS to name a few. Love the doom.
Doom heavyness + Beatles-like psychedelia.
And black rain, cold bitch, New damage, nothing to say, toy box, kristi, etc...
Gun from louder than love is Very doom too
Hands down the best soundgarden song of all time!!!!
Hands all over is
True🙋♂️
One of the greatest songs oat!
It should be top 5 for any Soundgarden fan. It's #2 for me. Limo Wreck being #1.
Sludge Grunge grabs you. There's nothing like this song. He was a bad ass.... the last of Seattles greatest.
Eddie Vedder's still kickin tho

Sludge factory by Alice in chains is a great sludgy grunge tune like this. Highly recommend.
@@jpegmilitia Pearl jam's been selling out concerts for 30 straight years minus 2 years cuz of the ongoing pandemic
Jerry Cantrell is alive and well and putting out absolutely brilliant music with AIC and solo
My favorite SG song ever. RIP Chris Cornell.

I agree man, my fav song from them as well. Eats into your soul
Kills me as soon as he hits the higher register vocally. Majestic
I honestly prefer his lower register vocals. Magical voice nonetheless
He sounds out of tune and pretty rough actually...
They kick so much ass jimmy page is backstage watching!
Yeah i notice that!
R.I.P. Chris. May the 4th be with you
R.I.P. legend, You vocal maniac, my generation owns You a lot! Revive 90's great rock scene with Layne and Scott with that Great gig in the sky!!!
And Kirt... only Eddie remains. He must be a Highlander...
Fresh Tendrils and this one are my favorites. I love my Soundgarden dark.
Happy 4th of July 2017 to all the Soungarden fans !
The first without Chris :(
R.I.P
Another one in 2020, thought it was the 4th of July. Miss you Chris- so much.
Favorite soundgarden track. That guitar sounds so goddamn amazing, and CC voice in the mix...so raw and pure. RIP
You know a band is badass when Jimmy Page is watching from the wings.
Damn right
It's very true
Heck yeah !!!! I saw him at 0:33 seconds into the video.
good eye yah I saw him too and was like.....
You know a band is badass when its SOUNDGARDEN
5:18 when jimmy page is watching your show lol
thought I was seeing imagination at first...lol
0:35 aswell
😁 Talent knows talent 🥰
Not only that, he was clapping at the end! :)

Rest In Peace Beautiful One. Fuck. His absence is colossal.. it is just. immeasurable. :(
Happy 4th Chris. Hope you can hear this, you did good man. You helped so many of us when we needed it most.
RIP~7/20/64-5/18/17
The whole time I thought it was Thayil who played the opening riff. Chris did it so well. Rest in peace.
The best of the best of the grunge era.

4th Of July
Soundgarden
Album: Superunknown
Shower in the dark day
Clean sparks diving down
Cool in the waterway
Where the baptized drown
Naked in the cold sun
Breathing life like fire
Thought I was the only one
But that was just a lie
'Cause I heard it in the wind
And I saw it in the sky
And I thought it was the end
And I thought it was the fourth of July
Pale in the flare light
The scared light cracks and disappears
And leads the scorched ones here
And everywhere no one cares
The fire is spreading
And no one wants to speak about it
Down in the hole
Jesus tries to crack a smile
Beneath another shovel load
'Cause I heard it in the wind
And I saw it in the sky
And I thought it was the end
And I thought it was the fourth of July
Heard it in the wind
And I saw it in the sky
And I thought it was the end
And I thought it was the fourth of July
Fourth of July, July
Now I'm in control
Now I'm in the fall out
Once asleep but now I stand
And I still remember your sweet everything
Light a roman candle
And hold it in your hand
Heard it in the wind
And I saw it in the sky
And I thought it was the end
And I thought it was the fourth of July
Heard it in the wind
And I saw it in the sky
And I thought it was the end
And I thought it was the fourth of July, yeah

favorite sg song..i know it's not the best but always have been my fav
Agreed!
I'm so gonna dearly miss him
My fav too bro
lukus johnson my fave
What does make a song the best? I think that if that's your fav, then that's the best for you
My 2 favorite band guys are on the same stage. Jimmy and Chris. What a night.

Soundgarden was the heaviest grunge band from the Seattle scene.
They weren't even Grunge, they were progressive

It would seem this sound is speaking of the year 2020 ... so relevant (and amazing!).
Jimmmmyyyyyyyy 0:32
Chris has the worlds most gifted voice. He sounded beyond beautiful, we all miss you.
So many great songs from this legendary band!! I miss this time in my life! So much great music of the time and history of music! The 90’s music is still better than anything today!!
I like how they have this heavy low guitar riffs and then Chris is just singing this quiet melody
Superunknown- best album of 1994, and that's saying a LOT. That helped many people grieve and heal after Kurt's death.
Grace by Jeff Buckley
@@kaydotcontentboth wrong, Purple by STP. But Superunknown is amazing and has vocals that can only be described as nuclear, absolutely amazing.
@@ricardolandgrave2532 super unknown shits on purple sorry. Black hole sun > interstate love song.
I wanna see soundgarden live again so bad.
I was there! Got crowd surfed at this gig just as dusk was setting in. So good.
Dude I’m so jealous how old were you when you went??
Happy 4th jamming this song

He was so fucking amazing. Incredible songwriter, guitarist, drummer, lyricist, frontman and the absolute best vocalist of our generation.
Awesome to see them bonus on Page!
4th of July 2024 anyone?!

@@rdtp6526 rate it then. What system are you using?
no way he said “and we still got 3 hours”!!! take me back to this concert my gawd, lucky nowadays to see any band play for more then 1.5hrs, wowza!

dont think i've ever heard a zepplin comparison, usually people think sabbath
Sound Garden a awesome group and Chris Cornell a awesome singer.And sad he passed away May Chris Cornell RIP 💐
O riff dessa música, é perfeito.
As a musician I can’t think of any greater honor than having the great Jimmy Page watching your show.
Thank you for sharing everything that you have been sharing. Thank you, I would not have been able to see/watch such greatness otherwise, so thank you Wilander, brother you have great taste.
man what a badass jam! miss you chris!
Jordon Peterson is killing it on the drums
Best singer ever. RIP always in my mind, your music ground up foreaver
I was here... great memories.
