  • @aliceinchains I felt every moment of this gripping, painful, soulful stripped down version of one of their biggest hits. PS who else caught Jerry's wink and smile?

    We speculate the reason Layne stopped singing during those parts was to help Jerry build confidence in his own voice as he was struggling with being insecure using it.

    Layne pushed/ encouraged Jerry to sing more. Together they blend so well. They are my favorite band of all time. And this show, I own the DVD, but it's sad and scary to watch, especially when it first aired, he was a reflection of his former self, and though this is a great performance, IT'S NOT HIS BEST. 😢😊

    Lane was reported to be very insecure during this performance. he was aware of the lisp he had developed from losing his teeth. You are right, he was struggling. But despite his discomfort, he blew most singers out of the water on their best days.

    When you were talking about Layne's energy during this performance, which is heavy and despairing, it's for good reason---he was nearly toothless, in a death spiral of addiction, high while performing THIS song, on Mtv Unplugged. It's a man singing at his own funeral. Edit: I finished your reaction, and I commented too soon: your eyes filling with tears says you probably know all of the above. I cry every time I watch this....it hurts. RIP, Layne....your wings are no longer denied. ❤

      Well, I don't think so cause he didn't look or sounded "high". Also, his addiction is the least important thing about his legacy.

      @gravewaxxsupercoven1980 2 місяці тому

      @TheStepmonkey it's actually documented that he had a vile of "pre-cooked" gear on him and was witnessed getting high. So yes, he was high. People who use have a tolerance they may not necessarily look "high" but they are not sick anymore..I don't care who you are no "junkie" would be able to perform while being dope sick.

    I guess im just going to have to sub to your channel now. We just chatted about Eddie Vedder and "Black" knowing about Layne and being a hung 90s junkie. He was probably doped up here. Hate to say it, but if you watch the whole performance then you will see what i mean. Love those unplugged days with "head bangers ball" when MTV actually played music instead of teens getting knocked up and being proud of it. What a turn in 30 years.. Also "Down in a hole" can be interpret a countless ways. I think he was talking about himself, like Chris Cornell, Kurt Cobain and Scott Weiland did in their music respectivily. Also " i will breathe no more of my feelings beneath". In the audio verison " i will speak no more of my feelings beneath.

    Layne had recently cut his hair shorter. After which, the band Metallica all cut their hair. Well, as they were getting ready to walk out on stage, they were informed Metallica would be sitting in the front row that night. So Layne said “Gimme a Sharpie!” And he wrote “Friends don’t let friends get friends haircuts” on that guitar.

    • @TheStepmonkey
      @TheStepmonkey 2 місяці тому

      Your story is so false. Mike was the one who wrote that on his bass and he did it to mock the metallica guys because they all had a haircut. Layne had nothing to do with the joke and he actually had his hair short since 1991.
