Like this comment if you wish you could have hugged this amazing, beautiful human being and told him it was going to be ok. This breaks my heart every time I watch it.
I remembering seeing him perform this song in 2009 in Tel-Aviv. He was introducing this song and saying it was written while he was in a really bad place. But that he's better now. Then he raised his hand and shouted ""I won!" to the crowd cheers. Really was a special moment. He was so happy then. I also remember his wife watching him from the left of the stage holding their baby. They looked so happy together and I thought how wonderful that she travels with him. After the show he and the band went to the side fence and just shook hands with everybody, it was a special night. R.I.P Chris. Missing you every day.
i always thought Chris cornell is the jesus christ of music, and im pretty sure about it, thiught in 1991 when first heard him i couldnt believe it, and i feel the same today, thats gotta mean something i always felt in paradise everytime i listen to him, thats GOTTA mean something
Honestly, Rob Halford, Steven Tyler, Dio, and a lot of other rock, heavy metal and hard rock singers. Chris was a baritone where some other male singers are tenors, but dozens of famous dudes sing on his level.
Chris has perfect lows and perfect highs. Some of them singers can scream as it almost as high, but not as powerful, and their lows aren’t as interesting as chris’s
I love how Chris performed this without the usual grit in his voice, letting the beautiful melody and haunting lyrics communicate with listeners. But of course, there's that high note that only Chris can hit effortlessly. This is one of my favorite songs, of all time. His solo work needs more recognition. And man, he has the most beautiful face ever.
said everything I wanted to say. He has such beauty, which isn't easy for me to say as a guy, but there it is. One day I'll meet a woman like you who gets him....
I don't consider myself gay, but Chris Cornell makes me doubt my sexual orientation Haha. But getting to the point, Chris Cornell was simply spectacular as a singer and musician, for a reason he is among the best in history, long live Temple of the dog, Soundgarden, Audioslave
вы так правы! уже два года я живу с этим альбомом, в разные дни мне нравились разные песни, сегодня я знаю каждую и люблю свои истории, которые связанны с ними. Крис был безумно талантливым человеком, я очень скучаю по нему...
Nicest celebrity I ever met ... He signed my Richard Petty hat at California Speedway ... We talked about music and life for about a half hour ... Crushed me when he left this world ... May God rest your soul !!! d:(
Melendres Geoffrey Wow what an honor to have met and talked with this beautiful man. Not only beautiful for his looks but he had a beautiful heart that he put on his sleeve in just about every interview I have seen. That's why his death hurt us so much because it felt like a personal loss. RIP sweet Christopher.....
I grew up listening to Soundgarden and Chris solo, I loved Sunshower, hearing about him passing though was heartbreaking. Here's to him hopefully in a better place
Hurting tonight but no drugs no drinking, I'm past 24 and so much more , RIP CC, my depression is getting me, winning but I'm here , I'm still fighting

I am 24 and living through the lowest years of my life. Slowly trying to dig myself out of rock bottom. The only one still there for me is my girlfriend, and I’m the only one there for her. Thank you Chris Cornell, this music will live with me through this dark time. I’m glad I still have a friend
Beautiful voice, beautiful eyes, beautiful face, beautiful soul. I was fortunate enough to have seen Soundgarden a few times in the 90s. It's a tough one to swallow that Chris is really gone but we have all of his amazing songs to comfort us. RIP CHRIS 🙏
Clearly an actual angel incanarnated down on earth to do what he did - uplift us, remind us that we’re not alone in struggling in this cauldron of chaos and divison, and that love and compassion are always there hanging in aether if only we can hold on and share it
his depression are showing through his songs. whenever i wanna work alone i always go for Chris Cornell songs. be it audioslave, soundgarden or his solo album. for me the greatest singer/song writer. im gonna name my son after him.
Its not even close when considering greatest singer/songwriter ever. Plenty of great songwriters but their voice doesnt compare to Chris pipes sent by god of rock, plenty of great vocalists, but did they write truly emotional, thought provoking lyrics and did they write all of the parts or just vocal melody or lyrics? Plenty of singer/songwriters with full career gr8 music, but did its scope cross genre boundaries? Did it involve multiple incarnations of differnt muscians? No. Its not even close.
I’ve known about Soundgarden for years and years (probably my whole life), but I didn’t start really paying attention to Chris Cornell until about a month ago. I remember asking my mom who he was on the day he died, I didn’t understand the emotional responses I was seeing from people. But now, a year after the fact, I feel a weirdly emotional connection to him as an artist and a deep curiosity towards him as a person, and I’m belatedly taking his death pretty hard. It feels unreasonably like someone close to me is gone, I can’t watch him in an interview or a music video without crying so hard I get a headache. I wish I’d had the chance to see him perform live.
I'm glad I saw him about 8 months before he passed at Virginia Beach. He did a solo acoustic show. It was surreal. I haven't been to another concert since. I can still feel the echo of his voice. I miss him too
I've seen many musicians die, but I've cried more than 10 times to only one person.... I think because growing up, he made me feel a sense of vendacation, love, and humility when the world seemed cruel and insane
I believe Chris truly made it is his goal to transcend through his art. He so effectively made use of his voice and his song writing and story telling was innovative and truly inspired. He was a beautiful badass genius and I think I'll miss him til the day I die.
I've loved his music for decades, he's my favorite singer. You have described so well when you say: "weirdly emotional connection... and a deep curiosity towards him as a person". I have always felt exactly like this about him and I know just what you mean. Thank you for putting it into words.
Goosepumps . Sometimes, I think , "He did it for her childs" . Nobody knows what he had a experienced with the "elite". But i can feel it . I know his lyrics . When u are IN u cant get OUT . Hunger Strike says ALL . Like his last album , HIGHER TRUST !! Listen the Lyrics , " I cant wait to life a a life without u , AGAIN . " Its not a relationship..... "Nearly forgot my broken heart." R.I.P Chris, u was a great Avatar , U ARE A GREAT AVATAR ! PS:" Its from "murderer of blue skys" .
Siempre he sido solitario, no me casé, no tuve hijos, siempre he vivido una cuestionada soledad. Con el tiempo la acepté, acepté que hay seres que en este mundo que vivimos en soledad. Ahora me siento bien, me siento feliz aceptar esta situación. Todo lo digo, por que la musica de Chris siempre un refugio, siempre ayudo. Saludos...
Man, a truly beautiful, sensitive man with a tremendous voice. He’s a hero of mine for sure. Had the privilege of seeing Soundgarden twice. God rest You Chris.
I was drivin' today in a huge trafic jam, pissed off on whole world, just thinking about time flying through my fingers. I was cursing on stupid asholes in cars in front of me...and then suddenly in my radio...this song. I haven't heard this song for years...pure ilumination. It reminded me of what life is about :) I found my peace again for 5 minutes. Thanks Chris.
There are very few celebrities I feel an emotional connection to, but Chris is one of them. Every time I watch a video with him I feel something so deep in my heart. I wish I could've had the chance to meet him. Rest easy 🌹
I also feel the same...I only discovered a lot of his music shortly after he passed... Now I can't get enough! I find a song of his I have never heard & I feel need to play it over&over til the melody& the words r forever printed in my head!!!
I feel the exact same way, I listen to one of his songs or watch one of his videos and I get completely nostalgic. Sometimes, or almost always I want to cry. Can't believe he's gone, even though it has been two years since he left this world.
Bri Same for me! I believe he never lost his touch with the real world. And he hated the business of selling himself out for anonymity was essential for his survival.♥️
I miss you Chris. This song means so much to me. It feels like anyone who is depressed doesn't want to talk about it and everyone else is happy and motivated. I'm left to feel alone in my feelings and sometimes music is the only thing that I can connect to when artists are so genuine like you. Thank you.
I'm always depressed, but just put on a happy face because thats what everyone around me wants. Suicide attempts like getting a belly full of xanax and crashing my car at 70mph. That was because I was young and didn't understand that being relaxed means you'll most likely make it out of a car wreck. That's why drunk people mostly always live when they are drinking and driving. I don't THINK ill ever try again, but who knows. 3 years late, and don't know if I can help, but I'm around if you still need someone to talk to. I've been going through this shit for almost 15 years.
You are remembered everytime a tear is shred for loneliness and depression. How beautiful and sad you were in your soul. We didn't just lost a great singer that awful day, we lost a fighter.
What matters is that Chris had a beautiful soul which transformed his voice to a heavenly realm.His cordiality, natural kindness and compassion compelled strangers to love him.He had a divine appointment.
That fact has become abundantly clear to me in years since his passing. It cant be a cosmic accident that an individual with his extraordinary creative gifts and physical gifts just happened to possess ability to portray the most emotionally and intellectually compelling account of the light streaming from heaven, and deepest darkness, the cauldron of pain and suffering this world is roiled in, of how it feels and means to live as a human on earth. Or in Chris’ case, an angelic soul experiencing this world inside a human body
I've lost count of how many times I went here in moments of despair and sadness and found here a unique feeling of "yeah, everything is bad, but it's alright, the world is going to end someday anyway"
He predicted the social media craze pretty good here. Sending a picture, you will see that I’m perfectly sane. Thanks for the great music catalog Chris.
Such a tragic loss... Chris Cornell was among the greatest vocalists and songwriters we ever had. He took rock, blues, folk and punk and made it better. If you wanted to escape to your deserted island, take his music and it would be enough. I'm having trouble with this. So many great musicians dying in such a short span. David Bowie, Jack Bruce, Chris Squire, Allan Holdsworth, Scott Weiland. And now Chris Cornell who leaves a beautiful family. There had better be a proper respect given to his memory. "Show me how to live "
Yes! I'm so glad I got that CD right when it came out. When artists go solo, I often skip buying their stuff. Glad I got this gem, it's one of my favorites!
Perfect Dark Knight reference, from Matt Cameron. I miss Chris every day of my life and I never knew him. He sang notes and lyrics I thought only my soul knew but then I hear him sing exactly what I'm feeling.
Agreed I just discovered it a few days ago. Then I realize the title of one of my favorite movies was taken right out of this song. Did you ever see "Seeking A Friend For The End Of The World"?
This is the first song that came in mind when I heard the news. Beyond sad, beyond words. This was the song I was playing on a loop on my trip to the hospital earlier this year when I thought I had a tumor. I was so scared thinking I was going to die soon. It took months, and I'm fine now. It was a scary time and this song was my company during those days. We will miss you so much Chris. My heart is broken.
No false idol human is "God". NONE. That's ridiculous. Fanaticism is dangerous and stupid when people with no talent or character are rewarded falsely with admiration - luckily, this guy deserves some. But that does not a "God" make.
If you are not depressed or under anxiety these days there's something wrong with you, considering the world. You would have to actively counteract reality in your thoughts or have some pleasure syndrome, being happy independent of circumstance. I read a comment saying how happy and motivated Chris was to change the world in high school. I was too. When you grow older and realize how the world truly is, "cause all has been lost and all has been won, and there's nothing left for us to save". But who will make the change if not us? Life is sacred, you can't give up. It depends on you. Hello, I know there's someone who can understand. And who's feeling- the same way as me. Do you?
@@Wildernessquestoutdoors this. People who have publicly decided to end, they plan it out in private and decided to end it, in private, long, long ago. There is absolutely nothing you nor I could have done.
This song has brought me to tears in the past and now that Chris is gone it's only going to make it all the harder to revisit the mindset that I feel encapsulates this song each time I listen to it. RIP Chris; I can't explain how much this album in particular helped me.
I totally understand you.. This song was the first one I picked to sound at my funeral when my time comes. Now it has a new meaning. I wasn't prepared for this.
Didn't bring me to tears, but it always struck a chord. Then, about 2 weeks ago, I changed my playlist on my MP3 player and included this song ( along with the brilliant " Follow my way " ) in amongst a whole varied selection of artists. Then the news broke the other day. Was walking home from work with the earphones in, and this song came on. Was a very difficult 4 minutes of holding it together as I realised the impact this guy's music had had on me.
Lyrics Hello, I know there's someone out there who can understand And who's feeling the same way as me I'm twenty-four and I've got everything to live for But I know now that it wasn't meant to be 'Cause all has been lost and all has been won And there's nothing left for us to save But now I know that I don't want to be alone today So if you find that you've been feeling just the same Call me now it's alright It's just the end of the world You need a friend in the world 'Cause you can't hide So call and I'll get right back If your intentions are pure I'm seeking a friend for the end of the world I've got a photograph I'll send it off today And you will see that I am perfectly sane Not for a lifetime or forever and a day 'Cause we know now that just won't be the case Call me now it's alright It's just the end of the world You need a friend in the world 'Cause you can't hide So call and I'll get right back If your intentions are pure I'm seeking a friend for the end of the world There will be no commitment and no confessions And no little secrets to keep No little children or houses with roses Just the End of the world and me 'Cause all has been gone and all has been done And there's nothing left for us to say But we could be together as they blow it all away And we can share in every moment as it breaks Call me now it's alright It's just the end of the world You need a friend in the world 'Cause you can't hide So call and I'll get right back If your intentions are pure I'm seeking a friend for the end of the world Call me now it's alright It's just the end of the world You need a friend in the world 'Cause you can't hide So call and I'll get right back If your intentions are pure I'm seeking a friend for the end of the world Songwriters: Chris Cornell
Was 25 and had just ended a 10 year relationship with my high school sweetheart. It was the end of the world for me during this early phase of my life. I spent a lot of time with Cornell and Euphoria Morning getting through this. Can't say how much rougher it may have been without him. I'm sad that he's no longer with us but am thankful that he was for the time that we had him.
Chris,a big hug to you, you dont know how identify i feel when i hear this song, i can hear your feelings trough your voice, and your sadness in the words, i can say that almost feel the same as you, but that would be a lie, im here if you want a friend, im not saying to chris, to anyone who reads this, you are not alone, and never gonna be, smile because life its not for undestanding! have a nice day, nigth, evening, in any time, maybe im listen and singing this song while u reading thisssss, so, put a smile in that face! the end of the world is not here but almost
Chris actually speaks to me, is not like i’m listening a song but a message. No death hurt me like his. Thank you, Chris. It’s not the end of the world if your sing sends hell away, truly thank you.
Feeling like its nearing the end of the world, with all the evil that exists, slowing eating away at the good. We might as well spend our last moments with friends, people like us, who have a good soul.
Hello, I know there's someone out there Who can understand, and who's feeling the same way as me I'm 24, and I've got everything to live for But I know now, that it wasn't meant to be [Pre-Chorus 1] 'Cause all has been lost and All has been won And there's nothing left for us to save But now I know that I don't want to be alone today So if you're finding, that you're feeling just the same [Chorus] So, call me now, it's alright It's just the end of the world You'll need a friend in the world 'Cause you can't hide So call and I'll get right back If your intentions are pure I'm seeking a friend for the end of the world [Verse 2] I've got a photograph I send it off today You will see that I am perfectly sane Not for a lifetime or "forever and a day" Because we know now, that just won't be the case [Chorus] So, call me now, it's alright It's just the end of the world You'll need a friend in the world 'Cause you can't hide So call and I'll get right back If your intentions are pure I'm seeking a friend for the end of the world [Bridge] With no commitment And no confessions And no little secrets to keep No little children or Houses with roses It's just the end of the world and me [Pre-Chorus 2] 'Cause all has been gone And all has been done And there's nothing left for us to say But we could be together as they blow it all away And we could share in every moment as it breaks [Chorus] So, call me now, it's alright It's just the end of the world You'll need a friend in the world 'Cause you can't hide So call and I'll get right back If your intentions are pure I'm seeking a friend for the end of the world So, call me now, it's alright It's just the end of the world You'll need a friend in the world 'Cause you can't hide So call and I'll get right back If your intentions are pure I'm seeking a friend for the end of the world
I so KNOW what u mean. I've been thru a life that most Cannot even imagine & felt @9yrs old that I was so done w all this. I'm an Empath. The strongest kind that are born, a pure Empath. I can feel all the energy of life around me, including ppl's. And when the negative is directed at me, I get super blown away, cuz we feel emotions so much stronger. But we/I are generally Very good souls. Very kind, strong, loyal, extremely loving & compassionate, wise & honest. I've learned so much on how to live thru all kinds of hell & continue on. I now just turned 46. If u are around, contact me on FB Messenger. My last name is Kmett. We can just talk. Let me see if I can guide u. I've been doing this my whole life & it is a pleasure. Love & Light to u.💗🌟
I understand him. I've spent years daily fighting the suicide impulse. The head injury I have, TN2 is The Suicide Disease-med slang, as the patients with constant migraines and headaches that are incurable make most of us do it in a year. Eleven years come September 2020!
I wish I had the chance to meet you. I would want you to know that you are a big part of my life and always will be. I would want you to know that you are loved by God and the people who truly enjoy your music. You make my heart sink and my tears fall; my throat feel sore and my mind just wish that you would know how much you mean to me. I will never ever get tired of your voice. The first time I heard one of your songs, I didn't know how much you would end up growing on me. You built a part of my life that I will never regret. No singer,in my eyes,can ever out compete you. Last night I listened to this song and sadness and tears joined me as my partners of sleep. Love you,Chris. -Lei.
Probably one of the most hauntingly beautifull songs ever written..what a sad day when we lost you brother...Absolutely a musical genious who was a huge influence on myself as an artist and will be sorely missed!!!!!!
There's only a few celebrities deaths that actually made me cry. Chris is one of them. It was his music that got me into rock and alternative music the same way that Elvis or The Beatles got other people into music.His music got me through so many of lifes crazy situations I never thought he'd be leaving us so soon... R.I.P. Chris ❤❤❤

Yes they are all good. But Cornell had something they didn't. Just my opinion.

I've loved his music for decades, he's my favorite singer. You have described so well when you say: "weirdly emotional connection... and a deep curiosity towards him as a person". I have always felt exactly like this about him and I know just what you mean. Thank you for putting it into words.
Chris will forever be underrated because most music critics are trend-following and badly musically developed. Sad but true.
John 15:13 (KJV) Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.
Goosepumps . Sometimes, I think , "He did it for her childs" . Nobody knows what he had a experienced with the "elite". But i can feel it . I know his lyrics . When u are IN u cant get OUT . Hunger Strike says ALL . Like his last album , HIGHER TRUST !! Listen the Lyrics , " I cant wait to life a a life without u , AGAIN . " Its not a relationship..... "Nearly forgot my broken heart." R.I.P Chris, u was a great Avatar , U ARE A GREAT AVATAR ! PS:" Its from "murderer of blue skys" .
Siempre he sido solitario, no me casé, no tuve hijos, siempre he vivido una cuestionada soledad. Con el tiempo la acepté, acepté que hay seres que en este mundo que vivimos en soledad. Ahora me siento bien, me siento feliz aceptar esta situación. Todo lo digo, por que la musica de Chris siempre un refugio, siempre ayudo. Saludos...
❤❤❤

This is what love is about, seeking a friend for the end of the world :'(
yes
Come join me on FB, I have a page called Chris Cornell fanclub.
Man, a truly beautiful, sensitive man with a tremendous voice. He’s a hero of mine for sure. Had the privilege of seeing Soundgarden twice. God rest You Chris.
Thank you Chris for being there in my alone time, hope to see you in the next life, if there's any.
chris, if there is a good place, you are there: i'll see you again, hopefully
This Song is not a Song alone, its a Message we all need in 'this" time, right now.
But the End of the World (Humankind) comes like a sneaky Shadow...
I was drivin' today in a huge trafic jam, pissed off on whole world, just thinking about time flying through my fingers. I was cursing on stupid asholes in cars in front of me...and then suddenly in my radio...this song. I haven't heard this song for years...pure ilumination. It reminded me of what life is about :) I found my peace again for 5 minutes. Thanks Chris.
try holding on to the feeling, is all we get
If only this song was on the radio more often
Wow nice.
There are very few celebrities I feel an emotional connection to, but Chris is one of them. Every time I watch a video with him I feel something so deep in my heart. I wish I could've had the chance to meet him. Rest easy 🌹
his music is so honest and personal, me too !
I also feel the same...I only discovered a lot of his music shortly after he passed... Now I can't get enough! I find a song of his I have never heard & I feel need to play it over&over til the melody& the words r forever printed in my head!!!
I feel the exact same way, I listen to one of his songs or watch one of his videos and I get completely nostalgic. Sometimes, or almost always I want to cry. Can't believe he's gone, even though it has been two years since he left this world.
Bri Same for me! I believe he never lost his touch with the real world. And he hated the business of selling himself out for anonymity was essential for his survival.♥️
Did you ever get the chance to see him play? Fortunately, I did in 2012 and he was fantastic.
Yeah, I want this played at my funeral.
I miss you Chris. This song means so much to me. It feels like anyone who is depressed doesn't want to talk about it and everyone else is happy and motivated. I'm left to feel alone in my feelings and sometimes music is the only thing that I can connect to when artists are so genuine like you. Thank you.
Grace couldn't get agree more.
Grace I feel the same as you.
100 percent facts hunni ❤️💯
I'm always depressed, but just put on a happy face because thats what everyone around me wants. Suicide attempts like getting a belly full of xanax and crashing my car at 70mph. That was because I was young and didn't understand that being relaxed means you'll most likely make it out of a car wreck. That's why drunk people mostly always live when they are drinking and driving. I don't THINK ill ever try again, but who knows. 3 years late, and don't know if I can help, but I'm around if you still need someone to talk to. I've been going through this shit for almost 15 years.
Connecting to good singer/song writers w great emotions & messages in their songs, has gotten me thru most of my really hard life like nothing else.
You are remembered everytime a tear is shred for loneliness and depression. How beautiful and sad you were in your soul.
We didn't just lost a great singer that awful day, we lost a fighter.
The most beautiful man I've ever seen and heard. I can't bring myself to say goodbye.
I will never say good bye...he lives in my heart forever
What a tribute to him you've made here.
Still can’t 😭😭😭
So don't " Wave Goodbye " ... "Say Hello To Heaven" !
He was beautiful. His voice unmatched.
What matters is that Chris had a beautiful soul which transformed his voice to a heavenly realm.His cordiality, natural kindness and compassion compelled strangers to love him.He had a divine appointment.
That fact has become abundantly clear to me in years since his passing. It cant be a cosmic accident that an individual with his extraordinary creative gifts and physical gifts just happened to possess ability to portray the most emotionally and intellectually compelling account of the light streaming from heaven, and deepest darkness, the cauldron of pain and suffering this world is roiled in, of how it feels and means to live as a human on earth. Or in Chris’ case, an angelic soul experiencing this world inside a human body
I've lost count of how many times I went here in moments of despair and sadness and found here a unique feeling of "yeah, everything is bad, but it's alright, the world is going to end someday anyway"
He predicted the social media craze pretty good here. Sending a picture, you will see that I’m perfectly sane. Thanks for the great music catalog Chris.
Such a tragic loss... Chris Cornell was among the greatest vocalists and songwriters we ever had. He took rock, blues, folk and punk and made it better.
If you wanted to escape to your deserted island, take his music and it would be enough.
I'm having trouble with this. So many great musicians dying in such a short span.
David Bowie, Jack Bruce, Chris Squire, Allan Holdsworth, Scott Weiland. And now Chris Cornell who leaves a beautiful family.
There had better be a proper respect given to his memory.
"Show me how to live "
whimser9 I say the best. I mean really, who can you name was overall better than this man? God I miss him so so very much 😔
I love his facial expressions in this video. What a beautiful man in every way. RIP Chris.
"Now I know that I don't wanna be alone today,..."
I'm so sorry you had to go.
One of the best songs he ever wrote. Euphoria Morning truly is an underrated gem. R.I.P. dark knight
Yes! I'm so glad I got that CD right when it came out. When artists go solo, I often skip buying their stuff. Glad I got this gem, it's one of my favorites!
My favorite album that never got the recognition it deserved! I'd put it in my top 20 albums, TBH!
This so much.
Perfect Dark Knight reference, from Matt Cameron. I miss Chris every day of my life and I never knew him. He sang notes and lyrics I thought only my soul knew but then I hear him sing exactly what I'm feeling.
Agreed I just discovered it a few days ago. Then I realize the title of one of my favorite movies was taken right out of this song. Did you ever see "Seeking A Friend For The End Of The World"?
Once every 30 years or so, an original, perfect voice comes along. Chris and Layne Staley had this gift. Such a shame to lose them.
This is the first song that came in mind when I heard the news. Beyond sad, beyond words.
This was the song I was playing on a loop on my trip to the hospital earlier this year when I thought I had a tumor. I was so scared thinking I was going to die soon. It took months, and I'm fine now. It was a scary time and this song was my company during those days. We will miss you so much Chris. My heart is broken.
It is amizing how music help us going through things, happens to me several times
Chris Cornell is a god
and nothing can change my mind.
No false idol human is "God". NONE. That's ridiculous. Fanaticism is dangerous and stupid when people with no talent or character are rewarded falsely with admiration - luckily, this guy deserves some. But that does not a "God" make.
@@genericpersons5103He already stated that nothing is gonna change his mind…so your sanctimonious rant is only a moot point.
Ah man this album is so sad. Especially this song, but that's why I love it!
me too
Emotional album
If you are not depressed or under anxiety these days there's something wrong with you, considering the world. You would have to actively counteract reality in your thoughts or have some pleasure syndrome, being happy independent of circumstance.
I read a comment saying how happy and motivated Chris was to change the world in high school. I was too. When you grow older and realize how the world truly is, "cause all has been lost and all has been won, and there's nothing left for us to save".
But who will make the change if not us? Life is sacred, you can't give up. It depends on you.
Hello, I know there's someone who can understand. And who's feeling- the same way as me. Do you?
Feeling it today.
Oh Chris, all I want to do is reach out and hug you, you needed it the most
and he held out the longest
Too late huh
All the hugs in the world couldn’t have helped him.
@@Wildernessquestoutdoors this. People who have publicly decided to end, they plan it out in private and decided to end it, in private, long, long ago. There is absolutely nothing you nor I could have done.
This song has brought me to tears in the past and now that Chris is gone it's only going to make it all the harder to revisit the mindset that I feel encapsulates this song each time I listen to it. RIP Chris; I can't explain how much this album in particular helped me.
Couldn't have said it better. I wish I could've told him how he brought such consolation. How he saved so many of our lives . . . :'(
I totally understand you.. This song was the first one I picked to sound at my funeral when my time comes. Now it has a new meaning. I wasn't prepared for this.
Didn't bring me to tears, but it always struck a chord. Then, about 2 weeks ago, I changed my playlist on my MP3 player and included this song ( along with the brilliant " Follow my way " ) in amongst a whole varied selection of artists.
Then the news broke the other day. Was walking home from work with the earphones in, and this song came on. Was a very difficult 4 minutes of holding it together as I realised the impact this guy's music had had on me.
Don't hold it together. Let it go.
It's alright. It's just the end of the world...
The end of his world!! Rip Chris.....
No one sings like you anymore.
❤❤❤
A creation like this comes once in a life time, the combination of Chris's voice , his physical and inner beauty is a rarity by itself.
Miss you everyday Chris
Goodbye, Chris Cornell. You were a big part of my youth, and you will be missed.
your friend Chester Bennington will be there for you now. RIP Chris & Chester. May u guys find comfort, eternal peace in heaven
Here because my heart is broken💔 I just lost my favorite artist.
June 2024 ❤ I love his voice, best male voice ever.
This is a perfect example of a beautiful man. I've never seen a person more beautiful. Or that has a more beautiful voice. RIP Chris.
Lyrics
Hello, I know there's someone out there who can understand
And who's feeling the same way as me
I'm twenty-four and I've got everything to live for
But I know now that it wasn't meant to be
'Cause all has been lost and all has been won
And there's nothing left for us to save
But now I know that I don't want to be alone today
So if you find that you've been feeling just the same
Call me now it's alright
It's just the end of the world
You need a friend in the world
'Cause you can't hide
So call and I'll get right back
If your intentions are pure
I'm seeking a friend for the end of the world
I've got a photograph I'll send it off today
And you will see that I am perfectly sane
Not for a lifetime or forever and a day
'Cause we know now that just won't be the case
Call me now it's alright
It's just the end of the world
You need a friend in the world
'Cause you can't hide
So call and I'll get right back
If your intentions are pure
I'm seeking a friend for the end of the world
There will be no commitment and no confessions
And no little secrets to keep
No little children or houses with roses
Just the End of the world and me
'Cause all has been gone and all has been done
And there's nothing left for us to say
But we could be together as they blow it all away
And we can share in every moment as it breaks
Call me now it's alright
It's just the end of the world
You need a friend in the world
'Cause you can't hide
So call and I'll get right back
If your intentions are pure
I'm seeking a friend for the end of the world
Call me now it's alright
It's just the end of the world
You need a friend in the world
'Cause you can't hide
So call and I'll get right back
If your intentions are pure
I'm seeking a friend for the end of the world
Songwriters: Chris Cornell
Thanks!
I miss you so much. You music means the world to me. You’re always in my heart.
I can't believe our angel is gone.
I’m 24 and I’ve got everything to live for….
Was 25 and had just ended a 10 year relationship with my high school sweetheart. It was the end of the world for me during this early phase of my life. I spent a lot of time with Cornell and Euphoria Morning getting through this. Can't say how much rougher it may have been without him. I'm sad that he's no longer with us but am thankful that he was for the time that we had him.
I was also turning 25 then, and I just revisited the song and fell in love with it. I hope you are in a different stage now. cheers
Heartbroken listening to this song. RIP Chris
RIP Chris. Thanks for all the treasures you left us with. You will not be forgotten.
Chris,a big hug to you, you dont know how identify i feel when i hear this song, i can hear your feelings trough your voice, and your sadness in the words, i can say that almost feel the same as you, but that would be a lie, im here if you want a friend, im not saying to chris, to anyone who reads this, you are not alone, and never gonna be, smile because life its not for undestanding! have a nice day, nigth, evening, in any time, maybe im listen and singing this song while u reading thisssss, so, put a smile in that face! the end of the world is not here but almost
I appreciate so much the fact that we can see Chris' face almost throughout all the video. He's so missed 😢
Still filled with a profound sadness 1 year later...
Chris actually speaks to me, is not like i’m listening a song but a message. No death hurt me like his. Thank you, Chris. It’s not the end of the world if your sing sends hell away, truly thank you.
There is no one out there like this today. Chris, you are missed. Depression truly sucks!
Prophetic song... in these times.
Can't get this song out of my mind the words just keep running through my thoughts. I miss you Chris. Hope heaven is beautiful ❤
Sad songs that make me happy to be alive in this world.
What a loss, he was just incredible. Chris' solo work is sooooooo underrated.
No one sings like you anymore.... 🖤
2:32 Just stay looking in his eyes makes me tearing up
Feeling like its nearing the end of the world, with all the evil that exists, slowing eating away at the good. We might as well spend our last moments with friends, people like us, who have a good soul.
Euphoria Mourning is such a beautiful, dark, deep, comforting, and imo inspiring album, We love and miss you buddy.
It really is a beautiful album. I love it sm 😭❤
Those eyes.......RIP beautiful
Goodbye, old friend. Rest easy.
Hello, I know there's someone out there
Who can understand, and who's feeling the same way as me
I'm 24, and I've got everything to live for
But I know now, that it wasn't meant to be
[Pre-Chorus 1]
'Cause all has been lost and
All has been won
And there's nothing left for us to save
But now I know that I don't want to be alone today
So if you're finding, that you're feeling just the same
[Chorus]
So, call me now, it's alright
It's just the end of the world
You'll need a friend in the world
'Cause you can't hide
So call and I'll get right back
If your intentions are pure
I'm seeking a friend for the end of the world
[Verse 2]
I've got a photograph I send it off today
You will see that I am perfectly sane
Not for a lifetime or "forever and a day"
Because we know now, that just won't be the case
[Chorus]
So, call me now, it's alright
It's just the end of the world
You'll need a friend in the world
'Cause you can't hide
So call and I'll get right back
If your intentions are pure
I'm seeking a friend for the end of the world
[Bridge]
With no commitment
And no confessions
And no little secrets to keep
No little children or
Houses with roses
It's just the end of the world and me
[Pre-Chorus 2]
'Cause all has been gone
And all has been done
And there's nothing left for us to say
But we could be together as they blow it all away
And we could share in every moment as it breaks
[Chorus]
So, call me now, it's alright
It's just the end of the world
You'll need a friend in the world
'Cause you can't hide
So call and I'll get right back
If your intentions are pure
I'm seeking a friend for the end of the world
So, call me now, it's alright
It's just the end of the world
You'll need a friend in the world
'Cause you can't hide
So call and I'll get right back
If your intentions are pure
I'm seeking a friend for the end of the world
I so KNOW what u mean. I've been thru a life that most Cannot even imagine & felt @9yrs old that I was so done w all this. I'm an Empath. The strongest kind that are born, a pure Empath. I can feel all the energy of life around me, including ppl's. And when the negative is directed at me, I get super blown away, cuz we feel emotions so much stronger. But we/I are generally Very good souls. Very kind, strong, loyal, extremely loving & compassionate, wise & honest. I've learned so much on how to live thru all kinds of hell & continue on. I now just turned 46. If u are around, contact me on FB Messenger. My last name is Kmett. We can just talk. Let me see if I can guide u. I've been doing this my whole life & it is a pleasure. Love & Light to u.💗🌟
Uau! !👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏❤
Gratitude!
Gracias
I understand him. I've spent years daily fighting the suicide impulse. The head injury I have, TN2 is The Suicide Disease-med slang, as the patients with constant migraines and headaches that are incurable make most of us do it in a year. Eleven years come September 2020!
if Lennon wrote this song it would be described as one of the best songs ever....Chris is amazing
Man this guy is sooo beutiful
I wish I had the chance to meet you. I would want you to know that you are a big part of my life and always will be. I would want you to know that you are loved by God and the people who truly enjoy your music. You make my heart sink and my tears fall; my throat feel sore and my mind just wish that you would know how much you mean to me.
I will never ever get tired of your voice.
The first time I heard one of your songs, I didn't know how much you would end up growing on me. You built a part of my life that I will never regret. No singer,in my eyes,can ever out compete you. Last night I listened to this song and sadness and tears joined me as my partners of sleep.
Love you,Chris.
-Lei.
Something very personal about this video as if Chris is speaking to you directly. We miss you man.
This song is like some acoustic pop songs from 2010s
Chris is way ahead of it's time, as always...
I forgot how good this song is. Miss his voice
the most beautiful man has left us ... rip
Every time I hear this, I weep with sorrow and frustration. What a horrible waste...miss you, Chris.
Still can't believe you're gone. Rest in peace, beautiful soul. You will never be forgotten.
this song is criminally underrated
Thank you for sharing that lovely memory of this song. This song, among others, helped me get through some difficult times.
You were beyond this world..this much is clear.
Probably one of the most hauntingly beautifull songs ever written..what a sad day when we lost you brother...Absolutely a musical genious who was a huge influence on myself as an artist and will be sorely missed!!!!!!
There's only a few celebrities deaths that actually made me cry. Chris is one of them. It was his music that got me into rock and alternative music the same way that Elvis or The Beatles got other people into music.His music got me through so many of lifes crazy situations I never thought he'd be leaving us so soon... R.I.P. Chris ❤❤❤
TheAmazingCaper Same. I don't cry at celebrity deaths, but Chris is my biggest musical inspiration and I'm heartbroken.
Chris wasn't a celebrity to me. He wrote some of the most relatable music ever. It's got me through a lot and continues to.
Missing Chris, shannon Hoon, john lennon, jason bonham and Elvis
His children needed his hugs😢
the world remembers and still Hopes...
