    I don't get emotional when musicians or celebrities die. But right now this 40 year old man is crying like a baby listening to this song. Words can't express the talent this man possessed. The world lost a great one that will never be replaced. Love you man and thanks for the music! R.I.P. Chris....for people who don't understand why others mourn the death of artists, you need to understand that these people have been a shoulder to cry on. A rock. They've been family, friends, leaders, teachers and roll models. Many have taught us what we need to know and what to do when times get rough. They've helped us move on. They've pushed us out of bed. They've helped us live when nobody else had time to. Artist have inspired us in endless ways and have been with us through stages in our lives. We've made memories with them. So when they die a part of us dies.

I lost my first love to car wreck… she died on Christmas Eve …she was hit head on by a telephone repair truck when he crossed traffic… this was her favorite song…. It’s been over 30 years… I have married and have kids… but I still think of her every single Christmas Eve and tell her merry Christmas….Somehow this is even more beautiful…but makes me cry even more…

    My wife passed away in my arms on New Year's Day. This was one of her favorite songs. She would play it all the time and it would make her cry everytime. It even came to mind while I was saying my final goodbyes to her. She was such a kind and gentle person... This hits so hard now. She gave me and the kid 11 wonderful years. She won't get to see our kid grow up... but at least she isn't hurting anymore. Thank you for being in our lifes, HunnyBunny. We love you, we miss you.

      I'm so sorry for your loss. My older brother passed away on October 2nd. 2013. He was only 49. Bone cancer stole him from our family. He too loved to play the guitar. This always makes me really miss him. I still feel his loss every day. Makes me cry. But I try and remember all the times we went to the movies together as kids and to see concerts in High school and how he teased me mercilessly. But he met a nice girl, got married and turned out to be a great dad and big brother. I feel your pain. And Chris Cornell was one of favorite singers. His death has left a big hole in music. Like Prince,and Sinaed. Bless you.❤

      @Protocol you are absolutely right. I saw him with Sound Garden in an old rustic hockey arena. I grabbed my girlfriend at the time and told her their was no way we were sitting in padded seat when Chris was down on the floor. We left our friends and fancy seats and headed directly to the stage. I literally fought us through the mosh pit and anyone between Chris and us. She was in front of me and I held onto the steel barricades all night listening to the best lead singers of my generation. I would probably still be holding on to that barricade if I had a choice.

As sad as it is, it seems to me that this is more than the terrible and tragic individual losses, it seems to me that an era just ended. But the music remains and it will go on inspiring people all over the world. And I find that reassuring. And then I came across to this Chris cover, and I was blown away. Definitly the music will stay! Thank you, Chris!

    Of all the saddest coincidences....I had an 18 year old son that passed away in my living room,died in his sleep,brain aneurysm,he played the guitar beautifully,he looked just like Chris Cornell,the way they dressed,the hair,the dimples,even his muscle structure,so many similarities that I could not even watch him for a long time without breaking,so needless to say the man was such a great performer and singer,and the fact he reminded me of Garrett so much,he inveribly become my favorite.My son taught my younger son to play when he was 8yrs old and he is absolutely amazing to watch,he is 14 now and can play anything,and do it perfectly,just for Garrett and his legacy.So the day I found out that Chris Cornell had passed away I broke down,my son died all over again,there went the only man that kept him alive for me.....no one can imagine the loss of a child,unless you know,and I don't know why I'm saying any of this,I'm just so baffled by the way someone I never met or knew,I seemed to know so well....it hurt almost the same,so to my son Garrett Randal McBride,and to Chris Cornell...I hope y'all meet on the other side,someday I will see them again,may you both rest in peace,the hurt and sadness I've seen in both of your eyes is over,that's all.

Dont be fucken fooled that he committed suicide, his and Chester Bennington's life were taken right before they fi ished the documentary. Sad thing is, no one would believe how many Hollywood elites who are in involved in , child/sex trafficking, pedophila rings, Adrenochrome production and organ harvesting. Remember, the ones who declined selling their soul for fame, are the ones who were taken out because they knew what was going on. Dark becomes light. They will have one unbearable hell to face!

    It's been seven hours and fiveteen days
    Since you took your love away
    I go out every night and sleep all day
    Since you took your love away
    Since you been gone I can do whatever I want
    I can see whomever I choose
    I can eat my dinner in a fancy restaurant
    But nothing
    Nothing can take away these blues
    'Cause nothing compares
    Nothing compares to you
    It's been so lonely without you here
    Like a bird without a song
    Nothing can stop these lonely tears from falling
    Tell me where did I go wrong
    I can throw my arms around any girl I choose
    But it just reminds me of you
    I went to the doctor and guess what it told me
    He said, boy, you better try to have fun no matter what you do
    But he's a fool
    'Cause nothing compares
    Nothing compares to you, hey
    All the flowers that you planted, mama
    In your back yard
    All died when you went away
    And I know living with me baby is sometimes hard
    But I'm willing to give it another try
    'Cause nothing compares
    Nothing compares to you
    Nothing compares
    Nothing compares to you, to you
    To you

      You must let it completely go all of it no matter how good they where to your life. Life does move on the past can never be changed and statistically trying to bring past people back after they've been gone for 3 years or more usually fails because we are constantly evolving as people. Timed and society are changing all the time. New eras come and go. Embrace the new people in your life. Depression will be their When remembering the past and hanging onto it. They say memories are great to have but it's better when you don't need to remember them to avoid depression. We also change every 7 years its a fact. We go through new life cycles the people you once new 7 a few years back will not be the same people as uou won't be to them.

    Nothing shall ever compare to Chris Cornell. His voice, his essence, his being. He is one of the ones that my heart broke for. I had upcoming concert tickets.😢😢

      SBakerNYC I can agree with that. But king of grunge goes to kurt cobain. Song writing (as well as learning an instrument) is a learned talent. Kurt wrote better lyrics to songs than Bob Dylan in my opinion.

      For future comments I am beyond, fully aware that Sinead O'Connor also sang this song. Sheeesh! How about this for a fun fact...This song was also sung by The Family on their 1985 album.
