I ended up in rehab how many of us do. I had to go to therapy once a week. At one point my therapist (who was great) asked me how I really felt about life...my life...the world in general. I sent her a link to this video and said if you understand this you understand me. Going on three years clean. Not because I was forced. Because I wanted to be free. Love you Tony. Hope you are free.
Silent disease: depression. Even though you have everything, your brain and emotional instability are what rule you. This video, with this sound, became the perfect farewell for a guy like Bourdain. RIP
As a huge fan of Anthony Bourdain and the show Parts Unknown, I have to admit, this was by far the best closing of any show I've seen in a very long time! All the characters in the closing piece by Mark Lanegan all played a prominent role in the Parts Unknown - Seattle episode. Mark Lanegan's "Strange Religion" as performed here was simply amazing! In fact, I am now a new fan of Mark Lanegan.
I agree. A local Seattle reviewer totally lambasted this episode and particularly this scene. But this scene hit me hard... tragic, dream-like, beautiful.
@@sunyata150 - Well, this local Seattle reviewer loved it. The whole episode was random ... Seattle icons mixed with everyday Joe's ... and perfectly captured this weird, quirky, beautiful place.
It’s clear you’re winding down, Anthony. Tired eyes but still as handsome as ever. One can see your struggle 20/20 hind. I hope you’re at peace and Pray for your family. See you in the next dimension. RIP!
I am SO DEVASTATED to lose Anthony Bourdain today. He loved Mark Lanegan as his FAVORITE artist, and this video really encapsulates the essence of who he is and how much he loved life. Thanks Mark... and RIP Anthony.
I allways thought that Tony did not think life was ok. Allways looking for better things, never thinking that he'ld find what he was looking for. But I agree with your sadness, I'll miss Tony for ever and ever.
It's early in the morning and I'm watching this while I look out over the lake. I'm balling. These were two of my favorites. Everytime I hear this song, it brings tears to my eyes. Coupled with the video, I just lost it.
I learned of Mark from Tony's final episodes. It is heartbreaking to watch two greats take their bow in this video. Mark and Tony, I stir my tiny whisk to you.
Anthony Bourdain was one of my favorite chefs, authors and TV personalities. I loved all his shows, Cook's Tour, No Reservations, Parts Unknown et. al. I will miss him greatly and in fact already do. Thanks Tony for exposing me to Mark Lanegan. I now listen to Mark all the time especially this masterpiece "Strange Religion". Anthony you were the coolest guy on the planet. Maybe someday I will understand. For now RIP and I miss you buddy!! Tony B
Out of all the great musicians, actors and TV personalities we have lost over the years, Tony is the only one I truly, truly miss. And now we have lost them both. RIP Tony and Mark
Two of my greatest loves, Mark Lanegan and pot. And Tony of course. It's a bleaker world without these guys. I love Anthony so much for giving Mark and this beautiful song a spotlight, it brings a smile to know there were probably tons of people who had never heard of Lanegan but saw this episode and this song and moment made them seek out his music. And if you already knew, it was a treat to get an alternate take from the album version, which is just perfect anyway.
I love Maria. We have meet for the first time at my first job, no, actually I am lying, it was police officer that gived me my first joint. I will start a little garden on my own.
RIP Mark you will always be listened to and mentioned in my lifetime.I promise!GODSPEED to you and your absent friends whom you are with now and eternally.
Rest in peace, Anthony. You fearlessly traveled the world immersing yourself in different cultures, peoples, and their food showing us that while we have our differences, we are all very much the same. You will be sorely missed by so many. Thanks for letting me come along for the ride. Much respect and love.
5-13-19....watched this Seattle episode for the first time....and it's the first time hearing Mark and this song.....im totally crushed...cant stop crying...R.i.p. Tony
After my third time in a row watching this video, the people here's comments brought more tears to my eyes. All of you are just as incredible as Mr. Bourdain. Thank you.
One of my favorite episodes throughout all seasons. When I learned of Anthony's passing, I immediately thought of what Mark said about how he was feeling being back in Seattle, which was that he missed people/friends from back then that aren't around anymore. That hit me, especially since Chris Cornell just passed 6 months before the episode aired. I can't imagine how Mark feels about the news today.
So true! When Mark said about how he was feeling being back in Seattle, hit me hard! I really liked the feeling, and the understanding of Tony, did not need say anything else! RIP
How I will forever remember Tony, the lone traveler at the bar staring down at his mostly finished glass thinking about the next flight to catch, dish to eat, people to meet and talk to about the small things life has to offer that makes it beautiful. A true visionary and pioneer, Cheers Tony!
I found Anthony's writing in '99. I met him a few years later while I was photographing him for a story I was working on and invited him to come by a spot I was working in the evenings. He eventually did and filmed an episode of The Layover with some friends of mine. He wrote the way I think, and spoke the way I speak. I have cancer now and I'm writing a book. I hope people see some similarities to your writing in comparison to mine. Thanks for speaking to me in so many ways Anthony.
I DVR'd this a few months ago and just watched it tonight in the hopes of opening up a little space on the recorder. Unbelievably brilliant ending to a great show. Damn, now I can't bring myself to delete it! Despite all the changes Anthony talks about, Seattle's still a pretty chill town and this song is pure magic.
LOL! I'm having the same problem. So many brilliant moments in his shows. This ending should have been an Instant Emmy. There's, like, 20 episodes on my DVR, and haven't found one yet that hasn't been worth keeping. R.I.P. Anthony. You'll be missed more than you'll ever know
Conheci essa obra-prima através do livro "Você Ligou Para o Sam". Na página 71 fala sobre essa música, fiquei curiosa em saber que melodia era e acabei me encantando com tamanha suavidade! Triste por não ter conhecido antes, mas fico muito grata por você ter deixado isto para lembrar-nos de você.
You touched so many lives, Mark, including mine. You will be dearly missed.
The Lone Wolf will be missed.
Me too, friend. That's why I'm here.
🙏
RIP Mark Lanegan, what a voice. Hope you and Anthony are sharing mad spliffs with your stories in heaven. Love from Turin, Italy
Best thing cnn ever did. Ive Watched this over 100 times
Mee too😊
I’m not there yet but getting ever so close...in so many ways...
Same. And now with a special kind of sadness.
Agreed
“Because of you, I see a light”. “Because of you, I’ve been alive.” ---Absolute masterpiece. Life’s painful.
I ended up in rehab how many of us do. I had to go to therapy once a week. At one point my therapist (who was great) asked me how I really felt about life...my life...the world in general. I sent her a link to this video and said if you understand this you understand me. Going on three years clean. Not because I was forced. Because I wanted to be free. Love you Tony. Hope you are free.
Enjoy the clarity. It isn't easy facing reality head up.
I wish you well Jason. This episode and song are just awesome.
Good on ya, Jason. As of this writing I’m nearly 3 years sober my self. Be good and take care.
Where have all my hero's gone....
@@jasonclarkston2893 to Heaven
The Bubblegum album is a masterpiece.
Really the whole career of Mark is majestic!
Boom...no fuckin doubt
I don't think there's ever been a more cool moment caught on film than when Anthony hands the camera man the joint
Best closing to show ever. Somebody deserves an award for the shooting of this.
Agree, agree, AGREE!!!
Yes indeed
I recently saw the show and agree with you 100%. The ending is even more poignant given what happened after the show. A sad loss of a very cool dude.
Ditto....
And now Mark is gone as well. Tears streaming watching this.
Almost called it a day so many times
Didn't know what it felt like to be alive
RIP Mark
Goodbye Mark. Thank you for your music.
No other musician has affected me so deeply. I’m in disbelief suspension. This one hurts. Some strange religion.
I feel the same as you my friend. Lifelong fan through all of it ... Screaming Trees and solo .. just not right
Dammit....miss both these legends....fly high boys....fly high 🍻
Yes. Troopers for the good side, both.
Silent disease: depression. Even though you have everything, your brain and emotional instability are what rule you. This video, with this sound, became the perfect farewell for a guy like Bourdain. RIP
This episode was Tony's goodbye. Still busted up about it.
Always think about him.
:( Tony
same.
Many tears were shed
So sad
What a shock that Mark Lanegan passed away today. I'm certain that Anthony is right there to greet him . R.I.P. Mark
RIP Mark :(
RIP Mark
Your music made my tough days easier.
Listening to this song hits different now that your gone....Rest easy man
Same

As well ... Looking for concerts for Mark Lanegan... what a brilliant departing gift from Mr. Bourdain ... a song and a message to ponder
me too
Myself as well
I agree. A local Seattle reviewer totally lambasted this episode and particularly this scene. But this scene hit me hard... tragic, dream-like, beautiful.

Crap, this made me weep.
I can't believe Mark died, I always admired his songs with QOTSA :( Rest in peace.
So sad to hear the news of the death of Mark Lanegan today. They will be brothers now, somewhere.
Legends . Anthony and Mark Lanegan . absolute kings
I am SO DEVASTATED to lose Anthony Bourdain today. He loved Mark Lanegan as his FAVORITE artist, and this video really encapsulates the essence of who he is and how much he loved life. Thanks Mark... and RIP Anthony.
RIP Mark
Rip two legends
This life might eventually, just be the end of me...... Rest easy...
2024 on the horizon. Still watching and listening to Anthony amd Mark. ❤
This episode made me cry with sadness and joy. Tony will be so missed. He made me feel like life was ok.
I allways thought that Tony did not think life was ok. Allways looking for better things, never thinking that he'ld find what he was looking for. But I agree with your sadness, I'll miss Tony for ever and ever.
Such a dark song, for both Mark and Anthony.
Hauntingly beautiful.
It's early in the morning and I'm watching this while I look out over the lake. I'm balling. These were two of my favorites. Everytime I hear this song, it brings tears to my eyes. Coupled with the video, I just lost it.
RIP Mark. Say hi to Tony for us.
Still hurts. Rip to them both.
RIP Mark. You are a legend, and will be missed
I learned of Mark from Tony's final episodes. It is heartbreaking to watch two greats take their bow in this video.
Mark and Tony, I stir my tiny whisk to you.
Miss you guys. Say hi to Tony for us Mark🙏🏽

I always promise I won't get choked up watching this. And I always fail.
Happens to me every time. I guess at a certain point I come watch this clip again because I want it to happen.
Damn son. I'm crying!!! Godspeed.
My hat goes off the Anthony Bourdain, we needed you in this world longer...….
I like Mark's music since 2006 and just got last week the old news he died.Very sad ..RIP
I love how Bourdain offered the joint to both camera operators. But with the second it's like he's offering it to the viewer. All the feels
Out of all the great musicians, actors and TV personalities we have lost over the years, Tony is the only one I truly, truly miss. And now we have lost them both. RIP Tony and Mark

Just finished hearing this song (for the first time) on CNN's Anthony Bourdain: Parts Unknown. WOW!
Fan for life!
Keep coming back to this video. So sad yet so beautiful. R.I.P.
RIP Mark. You chaged the course of my life in subtle ways.
So sad that 3 years ago we lost Anthony Bourdain. Now we have lost Mark Lanegan. All the cool ones are now gone.
This song definitely has 'ending credits to your life' vibes 🎶
Damn...hit me straight in the heart....what a man...what a song...best ending of an episode...R.I.P.
Gonna miss ya, Mark.
RIP Mark Lanegan
RIP Mark you will always be listened to and mentioned in my lifetime.I promise!GODSPEED to you and your absent friends whom you are with now and eternally.

Thank You for leaving us with these gifts. RIP
Kisses to the sky! thanks for your music Mark ...
Rest in peace, Anthony. You fearlessly traveled the world immersing yourself in different cultures, peoples, and their food showing us that while we have our differences, we are all very much the same. You will be sorely missed by so many. Thanks for letting me come along for the ride. Much respect and love.
RIP Mark. Glad you get to hang with Tony again, but damn this hurts.
Nothing like a smokey song sung by Lanegan... It is in my special song iist. Cudos to Bourdain.
Thanks for everything, to the both of you, may you find peace.
Watched this episode and was introduced to Lanegan for the first time. Thanks Boudain. You've done too much for me already.
Mark Lanegan and Antony. The best duo.
RIP
One of your greatest songs
Tony as himself, always smiling and holding the demons at bay. So sad!
You will be dearly missed Mark, your music inspired and touched my life. I thank you for that. Sleep well
I will miss you, Mark! Thank you for everything!
R.I.P. Anthony :(
My heart is broken RIP Mark
Respect Mark Lanegan! You did our city proud and I'm glad Anthony Bourdain did our fine city!
Anthony Bourdain was one of a kind....
He will be sorely missed by so many.....
Sometimes you just don't know the struggle inside people.
True!
RIP Mark Lanegan. You were the best.
5-13-19....watched this Seattle episode for the first time....and it's the first time hearing Mark and this song.....im totally crushed...cant stop crying...R.i.p. Tony
None of us will ever be half as cool as this. A man who truly lived. R.I.P. AB

After my third time in a row watching this video, the people here's comments brought more tears to my eyes. All of you are just as incredible as Mr. Bourdain. Thank you.
RIP Anthony . You will never be forgotten . Watching this Thanksgiving 2019.
Tony's suicide note. So heartbreaking
man, the ending of this episode and this song really got to me. fucking bourdain, man. there will never be another.

So true! When Mark said about how he was feeling being back in Seattle, hit me hard! I really liked the feeling, and the understanding of Tony, did not need say anything else! RIP
And now Mark Lanegan is gone.
I never knew about Mark Lanegan until this episode. Ever since his music has been my religion. R.I.P to Anthony Bourdain
Read lanegan's book.
Anthony Bourdain had such an incredible life... I still find it hard to believe he threw it away.
I miss you, brother Mark✌️
Such a beautiful piece of art.
RIP Mark. You helped me keep going.
2 fine souls departed too soon. Both left a lasting impression. This song captures the spirit of both so well. Timeless.
I’ll always remember him this way. Passing a joint with his crew and drinking a beer, listening to great music. I still miss him
My heart is shattered.
and mine...
Love this song so much. Some strange religion indeed
How I will forever remember Tony, the lone traveler at the bar staring down at his mostly finished glass thinking about the next flight to catch, dish to eat, people to meet and talk to about the small things life has to offer that makes it beautiful. A true visionary and pioneer, Cheers Tony!
Ive been listen this song since i was 16yrs old, im 30 now...wow...thank you mark and RIP Anthony Bourdain...
One of my favorite songs for the last ten years, but over the last few weeks, god, right in the feels
Pure artistry. What music should be with a side of soul. Saw this last night, EMMY for this.
I remember watching this a few months ago and just incredibly touched, now i see how incredibly appropiate. RIP. Anthony, loved by many many many...
Mark and Anthony, two of my hero's. this episode it epic
Be at peace both of you and safe journey to the parts unknown. Roll a big fat joint for the world..
Saddest best end to a show ever.
Thank you Mark.
Beautiful, foreboding, and hauntingly prescient montage
It's so haunting and perfect and amazing. I hate to miss the rest of you.
Soul crushing. RIP Mark,

There's, like, 20 episodes on my DVR, and haven't found one yet that hasn't been worth keeping.
R.I.P. Anthony. You'll be missed more than you'll ever know
journey on brothers,to heaven and beyond. enjoy eternity together
