One day if I am gifted with grandchildren, I will sit them down from a young age and play them Chris Cornell music and teach them what music and legends really are! Chris Cornell you will live for ever!!
I learned about Chris Cornell the first time I viewed the ending credits to the film The Promise. His song The Promise I found hauntingly beautiful nd was pleased to find it on YT.
If I had nothing to my name But photographs of you Rescued from the flames That is all I would ever need As long as I can read What's written on your face The strength that shines Behind your eyes The hope and light That will never die And one promise you made One promise that always remains No matter the price A promise to survive Persevere and thrive As we've always done And you said The poison in a kiss Is the lie upon the lips True words were never shared When I feel like lies are all I hear I pull my memories near The one thing they can't take And one promise you made One promise that always remains No matter the price A promise to survive Persevere and thrive As we've always done The books still open on the table The bells still ringing in the air The dreams still clinging to the pillow The songs still singing in a prayer Now my soul is stretching through the roots To memories of you Back through time and space To carry home the faces and the names And photographs of you Rescued from the flames And one promise you made One promise that always remains No matter the price A promise to survive Persevere and thrive And dare to rise once more A promise to survive Persevere and thrive And fill the world with life As you've always done R.I.P. Chris Cornell
Joel Swensen first timer here too. glad i stumbled on this video. anyone else need tissues? 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 sick to my heart when i heard of his passing. just bleh. waiting for more details on what happened though! not sure i want to or can believe after all he went through, that this was going to be how he left the world. praying it was an accidental overdose (though that's no consolation) at least some closure can be found there....
Every once in a lifetime someone with a sense of greatness touches the world and every soul in it and forever changes life as it was known.. Chris Cornell is that someone.. and precious Lilly I hope you take up the torch where your father left off.. I truly believe the Heavens and Earth stopped when you performed BLACK GIVES WAY TO BLUE.. peace love and light to the Cornell family..🎼❤️
Damn it - he has brought tears to my eyes again - Chris stays involved in the real world with real heart - and with an unreal voice and presence. I am blessed to live in this generation.
I sing Chris in keyoji I cry out for him ...i light candles.. for you.. I want die are you waiting like a stone for me. I'm in so much pain PAIN PAIN ...PAIN
The book now closed, the bells stopped ringing, only dreams remain of you we are clinging, for only songs of yours will remain singing. Thank you for your music. RIP Chris Cornell.
Just discovered Chris Cornell after watching The Movie. The Promise. So hauntingly beautiful it filled my heart with pure love. Perfectly matched the Movie. Why did i not hear of him till now 2024. I waited to the end of the credits to see where this voice from Heaven came from 🙏❤
March 5 1992 paramount theater bad motor finger show , you saved my life Chris and I will always be grateful for your voice and your music may you rest in peace my friend.
No one should be that attractive and sing so well. It's unfair to the rest of us. I am grateful to have received in my life the gift that is Chris Cornell. With his words, music, and by just being himself, he's done more for me than he'll ever know.
James Byrd Although Chris wasn't a close friend of mine I'm going through the stages of grief. your words helped me realize the benefit of his life instead of feeling angry at him. it's hard to rap your head around such a lose.😖
Scott Macleod it's not uncommon to feel a loss even with someone you didn't know physically. Chris shared some of his most personal and intimate feelings through his music, and i think the loss we feel is just as valid as those who were close to him. We obviously know there is a difference, but we were privy to his struggles and his accomplishments; many of us from the start of his career, right until his untimely and shocking passing. And for many of us, Chris was a light in the darkest of days..... However chris helped or touched your life, that is the reason you feel the loss.... and that is real, and valid. In our grief comes strength though... May his words and music continue to help you and others today, tomorrow, and forever. That is our gift to him!!!
Not a good day, sun shines less , birds forget to sing , crowds move silent in the streets, dust settles on stones we can no longer see......RIP Mr.Cornell
I still wonder HOW does Chris manage to reach in so deep into the shadowy existence of feelings, only those who suffered could feel!? Than he pulls out the gut of it and sings it with such beauty. His soul is channeling the pure existence.
Basia G Pllleeease persevere... Fear not... Fill the world with cheer, and be grateful you're still here. It is time to shine our lights, more than ever. #LoudLove! #HigherTruth
Such a beautiful ballad.❤ Listening to him singing to this heartfelt song which ((imho)), sounds like an Eric Clapton song.❤Chris put ''ALL," of his heart and soul, into this song (imho), [in hopes of saving missing, exploited and trafficked children].😢 Chris was in the process of shining light upon [[and ending]], the exploitation of traff1cked children, by establishing "The Chris and Vicky Cornell Foundation," JUST BEFORE HIS LIFE WAS ENDED.😢😢😢 His cell phone (his phone that was with him, in his room the night his life was ended), is '""STILL,""" missing to this day.💔😢R.I.P., Chris.❤ Many people who've investigated his death, know the same truth I know. QUESTION EVERYTHING. Chris, Chester and Avicii, ALL died after speaking out against(((and making music videos exposing))), child exploitation//child trafficking. 🙏 🙏 🙏
I hope our dear Chris win an posthumous Oscar for "best song". Beautiful testament for a legendary artist, gone too soon. #OSCARFORCHRIS. R.I.P my brother.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart Chris for being a part of our story in telling it with the power and grace of your voice. As a grand-daughter of a survivor I grew up hearing my grand parents stories of survival. My grandfather after returning from a hunting trip found his wife and two daughters murdered. He picked up his rifle and became a rebel fighter for a number of years, helping women, children and men escape. This just one of many stories from my family.
The first time I visited this video and song and I pray for Chris Cornell. Of all musical artist's to 'me', his passing continues to hurt as the most, to me. I hurt for Chris, his wife, his children and all those friends... I must stop typing now.......
no one can write a tune about war or a conflict and light its way into the existence of that unique pain that war leaves inside of us, pain that is guarded so well for decades...old Gepetto made my heart a marionette that can dance into the past only by using his guitar strings..
Exactly. He sang everything throughout the years. Last night I watched their last performance on here and found it so haunting, especially since I have seen him as a solo artist, in Soundgarden and Audioslave and the beginning especially was so off... and that final song and guitar feedback... I know hindsight. But still. He was saying it that night, too. Even if part of the beginning was a sound check issue. It was written all over his performance and broke my heart in multiple ways. ..that nobody made sure he was ok, and his last performance I wish had been his masterpiece. But it did say soo much. If we only knew
A great song and a great voice to the most hurtfull moments in our lives the Armenian Genocide, R.I.P Chris, everyone should watch the movie so they can understand the meaning of the song.
Thank You Mr. Cornel for this AMAZING song !!! Just have no words to explain what I'm feeling now... That's incredible !!! #KeepThePromise #ProudOfChrisCornell
no one sings like you anymore...
He is not dead, a genius artist never dies.
They live on through their music.
they live in our soul, in our heart.....rip Chris
Absolutely!!! And he is a Legendary artist.
Rest in peace beautiful songbird
Stanislas Lefort
very true👑 ever and ever
It's true
R.I.P. Chris. One of the greatest and truest vocalists in rock history.
No doubt.
ti correggo , il migliore no uno dei migliori
If Jesus was a singer... but now he will be ❤ love Chris got & still rough times and still ALWAYS does ❤🎉❤
GOODBYE FOREVER CHRIS. The best singer in the history of the rock...
One of the Greatest Voices in Rock.
Scrap Soldier imo the greatest voice in rock
That would be Ian Gillan
R.I.P. :(
what a legend. the world feels empty already without him :'(
One of the greatest voice and musician
is gone today....so sad.
One day if I am gifted with grandchildren, I will sit them down from a young age and play them Chris Cornell music and teach them what music and legends really are! Chris Cornell you will live for ever!!
I learned about Chris Cornell the first time I viewed the ending credits to the film The Promise. His song The Promise I found hauntingly beautiful nd was pleased to find it on YT.
If I had nothing to my name
But photographs of you
Rescued from the flames
That is all I would ever need
As long as I can read
What's written on your face
The strength that shines
Behind your eyes
The hope and light
That will never die
And one promise you made
One promise that always remains
No matter the price
A promise to survive
Persevere and thrive
As we've always done
And you said
The poison in a kiss
Is the lie upon the lips
True words were never shared
When I feel like lies are all I hear
I pull my memories near
The one thing they can't take
And one promise you made
One promise that always remains
No matter the price
A promise to survive
Persevere and thrive
As we've always done
The books still open on the table
The bells still ringing in the air
The dreams still clinging to the pillow
The songs still singing in a prayer
Now my soul is stretching through the roots
To memories of you
Back through time and space
To carry home the faces and the names
And photographs of you
Rescued from the flames
And one promise you made
One promise that always remains
No matter the price
A promise to survive
Persevere and thrive
And dare to rise once more
A promise to survive
Persevere and thrive
And fill the world with life
As you've always done
R.I.P. Chris Cornell
wOw... R.I.P. master Chris Cornell #GodBlessYou
Thank you ❤
R.I.P CHRIS CORNELL :( :(
You will always be in our hearts
I am so messed up today. First time hearing this song it is rather wonderful.

idk man, just give his family some room, fuck we're a bunch of fcking strangers lol, trying to invade his privacy, even after he dies
"Closure is for banks." Linda Cornell.
He lives on the beauties he gave us
Cornell's beautiful, powerful, unbeliveble voice makes me cry every time. God bless him!

Posthumous Oscar nomination coming up, perhaps. RIP

Ci ha abbandonati la più grande voce rock degli ultimi 20 anni. Un grande vuoto, ma grazie di tutto.
Thanks, Chris!
Today is a fucking sad day.
#RIPChrissCornell
To this day I am still always pleasantly surprised by CCs writing prowess. He is truly one of a kind
no one can write a tune about war or a conflict and light its way into the existence of that unique pain that war leaves inside of us, pain that is guarded so well for decades...old Gepetto made my heart a marionette that can dance into the past only by using his guitar strings..
Thank you so much Chris from my family who survived Armenian Genocide, SHNORHAKALUTYUN..............................................
Chris Cornell did not have to leave a suicide note, he expressed everything he felt and thought through his music.
Your absolutely right!
Exactly. He sang everything throughout the years.
Last night I watched their last performance on here and found it so haunting, especially since I have seen him as a solo artist, in Soundgarden and Audioslave and the beginning especially was so off... and that final song and guitar feedback... I know hindsight. But still. He was saying it that night, too. Even if part of the beginning was a sound check issue. It was written all over his performance and broke my heart in multiple ways. ..that nobody made sure he was ok, and his last performance I wish had been his masterpiece. But it did say soo much. If we only knew
So sad what happened. One year older than me...
Thank you for all you have given. A.
Rest in Piece, Chris Cornell, one of the greatest voices in Rock.
I'm heartbroken..
A man dies when he is forgotten
Because I haven't cried enough this week. Thank you, this is beautiful.
Miss you Chris Cornell.... Thank you for being a part of my life.
