    This album got me through my first tour in Iraq as a Combat Medic. The rage of it propelled me through the Hell of war... And later, the soft, painful vocals were there to sympathize with the loss of my brothers. I can listen to this album forever and it won’t be long enough.

      Although I've not witnessed the horror of humanity like you have, I do feel that pain through some not so great times the last 10 years and my younger brother and best friend leaving me unexpectedly 6 months ago. Peace in heart and soul to you...........btw, I agree.....that voice brings a wide spectrum of emotions to me. One of the best IMO......

    "I am not your rolling wheels I am the highway. I am not your carpet ride I am the sky. I am not your blowing wind I am the lightening. I am not your autumn moon I am the night." Chris Cornell was a poet, may he rest in peace!

      We'll have to agree to disagree with Layne Staley...His voice was unique, but when I saw him in concert he couldn't hold a tune to save his life and he's never been known for having a decent range, unlike Cornell. The two times I saw Soundgarden, Chris sounded as good if not better than on the studio albums. Harmonies are a different story, but the statement was "best voice ever," not best combo. I still listen to Superunknown and Audioslave's first album regularly...but I listen to Sublime's albums regularly as well. I still say Nowell is right up there with Cornell, leaps and bounds above Staley and Hoon (he's the only one I really don't get...even on album his voice was awful IMHO).

    18 years since sharing your experiences with us in the video, and I hope y'all are still alright after all this time. This song meant a lot to my brother, and it makes it a little easier to be reminded of people all thousands of miles away taking comfort from it in all sorts of hard times. Thank you 💜

Finally divorced my second wife a couple years ago after she left me 10 years ago. She's remained my closest and best friend through 20+ years of marriage and friendship. This song hit so close to home because I use to say, "I am not your musician, I am the song"...She's moved on now and I'm still holdin down the man cave, buildin bikes and restoring old Chevy trucks...Rest in Peace Chris Cornell, see you on top brother! ~Michael of the clan Hill~

    Chris Cornell's voice carries me through times of darkness, despair and pain. when I listen to his voice, I feel less alone. his voice is like no one else. he was talented and famous, but those things don't protect the mind from sadness and despair. wish he could have held on. but I understand he was probably tired of life, and just wanted everything to stop. depression is terrible, and it robbed us of an amazing musician. I listen to Chris Cornell and it helps me feel a little better.

He created so much art for us to enjoy sonically, we needn't be sad for our own loss; we ought to pray for his wife, children, and bandmates. We lost his ability to create new art - they lost the dad, husband, and lead singer/songwriter. While we all grieve, some do more than others.

      It is a tragedy how we treat each other, especially with the unbeatable, undeniable, irrifutable fact; that we will all, be dust some day. The knowledge of that should move us all to hold tighter, love deeper, give more freely, and bring us closer to a more alert awareness of our immortality. Love not hate-give not take-right not wrong-an opening not a closing-a lifting not a sinking-a building up and not the tearing down-that oh so many do. If only we could get the world to look through the eyes of innocence, maybe then it would be kinder. UNTIL THEN- Chris and Chester and layne and Cobain and the too many to count talented musician now gone, we will have the magic that their music gives.

    Hands down the best Male Rock Vocalist of all time. It's not just the notes he hits, its the depth of emotion, the control and the tone. RIP Chris Cornell!! So glad I got to see you at Red Rocks!!!

      We live a close childhood brother man, I was also 7 when this came out and now 21. If it wasn’t for my parents playing this for us while taking drives we wouldn’t of experienced it properly. I remember those days when it was just me, my mom and dad before they separated driving down those country roads in Northern Michigan on a rainy day, no words spoken, child me looking out the window half asleep. This song hits different every time I hear it...

    Beautifully written song. What I love about music is that everyone in this world can listen to the same song, we will each have our own take on the meaning behind the lyrics. We are all at different places in our lives which gives us each a different perspective. I guarantee you, you can listen to this today and know what it means to you and listen to it again after you lived more of your life and have moved on to a new place and perspective and it will mean something different to you. The POWER of music. There is nothing like it that I can possibly think of. It's truly a gift these artist's have given us. It is always with us. Never to be forgotten.From one music lover to another:)

      Jacob Rice I grew up during the 60's and 70's and I LOVED the music. In my youthful arrogance, I only THOUGHT I understood the meanings behind the lyrics. About a year ago, I was listening to a Bob Seger song. One which I had listened too countless times. But on this particular evening, it felt like I was hearing it for the first time and in a manner of speaking, I was. I TRULY understood the meanings of the words he was singing. I had now lived many of them and had a clear understanding of the rest. People swear they know the meaning behind the lyrics of a song and will verbally fight about it. Music has and will always be based on your vantage point and your perception. I like to think that is one of the things that makes music such a gift. The ability of one song to change several times within one's lifetime. I think it's incredibly amazing. Sorry for the wordy reply. It's one of those flaws that makes me human:) Have a great rest of your day!!
