      Everything Chris touched turned to gold. He was such a phenomenal talent. He could play, and sing, "Mary had a little lamb" and just floor the audience. When he performed, he gave it all of his emotion and made you feel it down to your soul. Rest in peace now, Chris. There is no one that can take your place. NOBODY sings like you anymore... and no one can even come close. Nothing Compares 2 U, in the realm of music.
      He made every song, that he covered, his own. He poured everything he had into every song he performed. He was an amazing artist and musician. There was a ragged hole ripped out of the Universe when this world lost Chris Cornell. He is very sorely missed.

    I did not know who Chris Cornell was when he was alive. I only found out about him after his death in 2017. I heard Soundgarden often on the radio growing up. didn't realize who the lead singer of the band was at the time. Now I would say he's one of my favorite singers. every song he sang was very powerful. his voice was brilliant. if you listen to his songs, you can tell he struggled with depression. the sad thing about depression is how easy it is to hide from people. it's not always being sad. and it's not always obvious on the outside. His music makes me feel better. the sad songs are the ones I relate to the most

    "One Lyrics":
    Can't remember anything
    Is this true or just a dream
    Down inside I feel to scream
    This terrible silence stoping me
    Now that the war is through with me
    I'm waking up, but I can't see
    That there ain't much left of me
    Nothing is real, sai'd nothing is real
    but the pain now.
    Back in the womb it's much too real
    In pumps life that I must feel
    But you can't look forward to reveal now
    Look to the time when I could live
    Fed through the tube that's stuck in me
    Just like a wartime novelty
    Tied to machines that make me be
    Cut this life off
    Cut this life off from me
    Landmine has taken my sight
    Took away my speech
    Took away my hearing
    Left me with life in hell
    Darkness surrounds me
    All I can hear and all I see
    I can't live, I cannot die
    Trapped in myself
    Trapped in myself
    Landmine has taken, taken my sight
    Taken my hearing, taken my eyes
    Landmine has left me within life in hell
    my body, my home is hell
    But I cannot die.
    Half the world is gone, just one
    Just one
    Hold my breath as I'm wishing for death
    Just one, please God wake me
    God Help Me
    God Take Me
    Hold my breath as I wish for death
    Please, please God
    Please God take me.
    Please God take me.

    It's sad Chris Cornell was depressed. I feel bad that such an amazing, unique person couldn't help himself, but I won't fault him for his choices. he was clearly tired, sad, just wanted some peace. his voice is such a comfort to me. I struggle with depression and I know what it feels like to want to give up. I try to carry on, find some happiness, but it's difficult. Chris Cornell's amazing voice and wonderful music is so calming to me. no matter how sad I am feeling, I can turn to music like this and it gets me through the day. sorry you lost your battle, Chris. your music meant a lot and still means a lot to people

    Whenever talent truly died, it took guys like Chris Cornell and Kurt Cobain with it. Thankfully, we have videos like this to remind us when music meant something.

      Thank you for your service. I’m not a war vet, so🤷🏻‍♀️the scars U carry, but like millions of ppl, I understand oh so well the suffering of the body & how that suffering can affect the mind. Music has always been at the forefront of my life, now the 1°healing part…playing for hrs till the pain takes over the meditative st8. Now listening 2🎶 /watching, or 🎥, it’s difficult. As an adult who’s been close 2 death several times knowing that my parents/family suffer more than I, suicide is Never an option. Even if I didn’t, 🤷🏻‍♀️ if I could, b/c of possible spiritual/energy/multiverse implicationsR. But I keep going along even when 🛌ridden & pain constant, I’m still grateful for so much. Listening to Chris sing this, it has it’s comedic/musical/beautiful genius that reminds me of a Victor Borge of soulful rock. @the same time knowing the roots of the music(fan of 3;), then his fate, I wish the🌎 could’ve carried him & all that do consider when mental suffering is greater than what’s believed 2B bearable. That scares me, U don’t have 2B a R‘nR⭐️, & a lot of ppl R losing ppl now, but the loss of the beauty in ppl by the absence of them…it sure leaves a much colder🌎we really have 2carry each other now😇❤️‍🩹❣️

      The exact same for me. I can't listen to either without crying. I read all the comments that have the same sentiment expressed over and over that both these people were such amazing beautiful caring souls. Such loss, gone too too soon. Every listen of each of their songs my heart aches with the fact they weren't on the earth for many decades more. For themselves and for the world.

    A lot of the crowd laughs when he starts like he's going to be doing some novelty joke. But no, he was such a sincere guy that a little googling mistake didn't have to be fodder for laughs, it could be simple serendipity. What an amazing approach to life.

    Johnny Cash and Chris Cornell have to be the only people I know who can cover a song and make it their own. Combining a U2 and Mettalica song together and making it your own is simply legendary. Name another musician who can pull it off.

      Bob Dylan said Jimi Hendrix's version of All Along The Watchtower means the song is now Jimi's. And you're right, Johnny Cash's Hurt is extraordinary, I bet Trent Reznor gave the song to him too.

    The only thing is I wish that there was a recording without the crowd noise. Some songs are party songs to get all excited about... this was not one of them. Masterfully done, an emotional take on two emotional epic songs and somehow made it his own. "One" is arguably U2's best song, and One is also a song many would say was Metallica's best song... And Chris comes in and says "hey, mind if I do this at the same time and knock it out of the park?" His voice just melts it together like some savory musical s'more. And he does this with other classics like GnR's "Patience" and Prince's "Nothing Compares 2 U". I wish he'd could come back, because we were not done with him yet.
