It still breaks my heart even all these years later to watch this. So much talent and pain.
And it breaks your heart not cause he died (yes that too) but while your watching you see all the pain in him and in his voice and I definitely shed tears when I first seen this concert it just felt like a big cry for help
Was cleaning yesterday and this video came on, I instantly sat down and started watching. I ended up crying because you can see his pain.
Asia is so awesome with the way she connects with Layne and understands the feelings behind his lyrics. ❤️
I agree. Best AIC Reaction Video in My Opinion.
The hardest lyric for me to hear has always been "You don't understand who they thought I was supposed to be". I instantly feel like shame for all the things I've ever done that would have let my parents down. The lyrics to all AIC songs are assumed to be about drugs, love, or the love of drugs. I think the reason they touch so many people is you can see yourself, and your situation, in them, regardless of what it may be. The power of words....
Well said
Its great too see people from all diff places diff races at diff times and ages of our lives feeling and relating to one mans pain that is art at its finest.
Sadly Laynes story ripped a lot of hearts out I grew up listening to Layne and I struggled with addiction most of my life clean now for over 8 years and APC got me thru so much
wish youn well im 25 years in the shit this the worse of wd are over cant tell you how many detox i hav e had but layne always with me through this .So glad i saw AIC live good luck keep at it 8 years wow
“Down in a hole” always makes me cry. Great reaction.
Every damn time.
"rain when i die"
All the grunge MTV unplugged concerts are fire. AIC, Pearl Jam, Nirvana, Stone Temple Pilots. You should listen to all of them.
Layne was from Seattle. The guy to the left long blonde hair was another guy wanting to do music but went from band to band met Layne and Layne took him in and that's why you see him and Layne are so close. There was another guitar player that began to Mike but his addiction was messing up the band as they were taking off and him and Layne were STUCK TOGETHER! Layne DID NOT WANT HIM FIRED! But they had to. Layne if you watch the early new guitar guy even interviews he wouldn't have anything to do with him. The drummer is original to. Demri Laynes girlfriend was very ADDICTED! She had bad health issues died several times. HE WAS SPIRALING AND LOST TO HIS ADDICTION 6 YEARS LATER STILL GREIVING HER. On this show, he and the other guitar player to the right shot up on the back before coming out. Layne carried his own mix. That's why he has his eyes closed. He had lost many teeth. If you see him before and hear him here, you can tell it's hollow in his cheeks. Also this almost wasn't done! Layne was sent the recording of the to be published show and WAS LIVID!!!! He called a producer he worked with before after his addiction was BAD this guy could make Layne sound good. The producer is the one that brought the words to Layne when he forgot it in this. But he was yelling that MT. MADE HIM LOOK LIKE A CRACK ADDICT NO IT'S NOT HAPPENING! He had his hair died pink. They didn't know when he came. BUT IT WAS A PLUS BECAUSE THEY TOOK IT BACK AND ALL THE LIGHTING TWEEKING THIS AND THAT THEY SENT THIS BACK TO HIM AND THIS IS WHAT HE AGREED TO. Layne loved music NOT THE FAME OR CONTROL OF HIS ART. After loosing Demri, he didn't want to be in reality. He loved and hurt even more! He was picked on horribly as a child. Jerry was devastated. They were living in a little house with like 15 people trying to make it. Most of the GRUNGE bands are dead many members. He wanted control over his music. THE INDUSTRY CHOKED THEM! THEM PUT OUT WHAT THE MACHINE LET THEM THAT'S WHY HE WAS SO MISERABLE TO. His mom kinda peeved me off saying he knew he had a gift and he wasted it. 😡 To BE THAT ISOLATED AND FOUND 2 WEEKS AFTER YOUR GONE 6'1 88 PDS DECOMPOSING😢 YOU DON'T HAVE A HEART TO NOT HAVE EMPATHY! MENTAL ILLNESS IS A KILLER!
HE HAS GONE DOWN AS ONE OF THE GREATS!
Laynes has a tortured, longing in his voice voice that brings tears to nearly everyone that hears it. Thank you for appreciating it!
“Frogs” toward the end of this performance was haunting and masterful, you can just feel the alienation. You guys should check it out.
Seth- totally! I like this live version better. That high pitched ‘picking’ by Jerry during the back half of the song is bone chilling. THAT was genius. Man they just knew how to tie everything together perfectly.
Love how you guys connected with the music and Layne. What a legendary band. One of the very best
37:52 Layne's voice and Jerry's voice so perfectly blended.
Layne and Jerry’s voices was made for each other
Alice In Chains is the reason why I started singing and playing guitar. Nothing speaks to me more than this band and Layne Staley. Rest In Peace to my musical role model 🙏
All the these Unplugged concerts are amazing. Stone Temple Pilots , Pearl Jam, Nirvana.
This show meant a lot to Layne. He knew it was coming and he pulled together all he had for it. Which was still a lot.
AIC is in my all-time favorites. Grew up in the nineties with them. I still remember where I was and what I was doing when the news announced Layne's death. I shed some tears, not gonna lie.
You guys are so amazing! The feelings you get when you listen to music is so intense. It's like you really try to put yourselves in the artist shoes and really understand them. I have never seen you two with this amount of intense emotions. Keep up the great work.
I don’t think many people understand that Jerry wrote most of these songs and a lot of the lyrics. He has had struggles with his own demons, over the years.
The girl Asia...I think she understood Laynes lyrics. Impressed.
She is wonderful
Asia! The look on your face trying to figure out how he sings like THAT. PRICELESS!!
He was an amazing singer miss him so much feeling was put into this show
Pearl Jam, Sound Garden, Screaming Trees, Mother Love Bone, Temple of the Dog, Nirvana, STP and MANY more. Some had life changing careers, some were 1 hit wonders, others did well in the underground scene.
Rip layne you loved and missed
Love you guys
The big four of grunge Alice in chains Soundgarden,nirvana,pearl jam are all from Seattle.i used to see alice playing house partys back in the day
He said " I want to fly! But my wings are bent so denied!"
'God Am' is a pretty unique song by Alice in Chains. That and 'real thing'. I think y'all might find them interesting. They're a little different but I think they're still pretty cool. One was more at the beginning of his career and one was closer to the end
God am is a true masterpiece. Definetly in my top 3
Definitely a top for me!
He was really deep in his addiction during this shoot and Cantrell was sick on guitar so all things considered it was awesome.
The history of Layne Staley is a crazy ride . R.I.P
Yes,yes STP an candle box for me. !!!
Wings approved dear Layne. ☮️💜🔥
Yesssss you all have to do Love Hate Love this song is truly one of the best songs Layne ever put out and he shows ever emotion in his performance
Unfortunately good lifestyles usually don't bring bangers like down in a hole. Chris Cornell and Scott Wyland are a couple more examples. R.I.P Chris,Scott and Layne .
Only Layne would stop stop a song on MTV Unplugged because he messed up. His mindset in this live performance has left a mark on my heart, that I know
Got to see them open for Van Halen back in the day. I couldn’t believe what I was hearing back then.
They also have Them Bones,Would,Your Decision,Man In the Box,Rooster.
So glad y’all did this video for reaction makes me so happy to see Layne live on no one in UA-cam should ever forget him he was amazing his music got me thru so much in life
To me, their sound is a mixture of where heavy groove is meshed with blues, dipped in sludge, rubbed with gritty sandpaper, and then vocally intertwined with a dynamic front man that had quite a unique tone range. Topped off with a sprinkling of with the most complimentary of harmonies. What more could a person want? -I think they left no stone unturned.
I know how his life ended in tragedy, yet I still prefer to think of all of the great things that he did. Sure I am not the only one who felt better listening to this music when I was younger. His life should be celebrated
POPULAR ALL OVER THE WORLD
Layne Staley one of the greatest voices in rock ever
Bless you Asia … you are so human and empathetic heart❤❤
Yes, it seems like most of the type of music came out of the west coast. This band is the band that turned me on to the newer rock. And then it turned into groups like Godsmack and Shinedown.
Can’t believe I haven’t seen this. Such a great reaction! Much love, @Asia and BJ. Here’s to 300K!🥂
Thank you 🙌
The vocals and especially the harmonizing is epic on this song(and many others AIC tunes) between Layne and Jerry, they were SO effen good at perfecting these beautiful harmony, and then slightly mixin it up a bit through the song. BTW this venue, MTV Unplugged was/is a national treasure because so many bands from many genres had performances worthy of being nominated and accepted to theUS library of congress to be preserved for ever because it is considered a US history and culture treasure.The great Louie Armstrong I believe has at least 2 songs/performances that are forever etched in history cause they are at the US library of congress.
Depression for this young man appears to be his main issue. Losing his girl was the straw, that broke him, I feel. Everytime I watch him I just say to myself “Awe buddy”.
Anyone who has experienced depression this bad can understand that pain…
His band suffered, I’m sure…Jerry for sure…
Sympathy and Empathy is what I feel…it makes you wish you could have been there for him!
However, what a hauntingly, beautiful way to express those feelings!
The 90’s (alternative/grunge) has the best bands especially singers. There will never be another time like this. RIP CHRIS CORNELL & LAYNE STALEY.
Early 90’s Seattle was the grunge capital. Guns and roses were too. They started as a heavy metal band
You should listen to Nutshell it’s one of the most emotional songs I’ve ever heard it’s almost haunting
respect to you both frm over the pond in UK. my sister and brother and myself are all heavy metal addicts. People call AIC's a grunge band, but, they are the types who never listened to all their records. They were always a heavy metal band. We all find it still hard to watch their MTV Unplugged performance without the tears returning. Layne had the most powerful voice ever in rock,... and Cantrel penned the most intense emotional records ever created in rock. Quite honestly,... Layne and Jerry, created the same magic together,... on a par with Lennon and McCartney whenever they met up.
He was so dopesick and so depressed, he hardly lifted his head. Yet his performance was beautiful..Rip Lane❤
Addicted yes, but not dope sick. He was high as a kite. He fixed before he went out on stage so he could get through it.
Back when MTV was amazing!
Awesome to see some new Alice in chains fans! Just hit the like Button and gonna check more out! Keep on keepin on!
Down in a hole is about a woman who kept him in his pain. He wants to be inside of her, but when he is, it takes him into the hole of his addiction
Check out rain when I die..honestly i dont think there is one bad song in their entire catalog in the layne years...Jerry is also legendary let's not forget him
it came from seattle but spread and was played everywhere...all the time
Wow AIC again! thank you guys
One of the most epic parts of the hole show when Layne forgets the lyrics to sludge factory shows the amazing relationship Layne and Jerry had and the hole band
Jerry's face when they start playing frogs was haunting you can feel the build up
I absolutely ❤️ this song!
Red eyes dry eyes. Lol. Me too. Great band
Layne conveyed his feelings thru his music that’s what makes his music even better
I just love this so much
The song was written, as was about 80% of Alice In Chains music, by Jerry Cantrell.
He wrote this song about an ex girlfriend.
He’s gone on to admit, although he wanted to be the front man of AIC , Layne Staley’s voice was the one he was looking for to sing his music.
Layne did write and collaborate will Jerry Cantrell but make no mistake, Jerry Cantrell was the driving force behind the band that was Alice In Chains.
Layne and fellow grunge front man and iconic singer songwriter Chris Cornell can fly with the Angels that was their voices. I am in no way saying that Layne’s voice wasn’t incredible. Layne’s voice gave the music the feelings that we all can relate with.
The brightest stars always burn the fastest.
RIP Layne Staley
Rip Chris Cornell
Two of the most beautiful and iconic voices the world were blessed to hear.
Thank you.
And
ua-cam.com/video/mziB7gwSTNc/v-deo.html
God bless you all!
I added another video
Hopefully you’ll give this mans art a listen. This is the chris Cornell that I speak of .
Singer that’s unmatched.. a lyrical genius that wrote and fronted 3 what’s known as “SuperBands”
Temple of the Dog
Soundgarden
Audioslave
Please .. if you read this.
Give this man an ear for 3 minutes
Simply stated
He will blow you away or I’ll never send you another message again
Writing music is a skill which can be taught, learnt, practiced, and perfected. Singing with the raw emotion Layne does is a skill that is natural
@@alandarnell1885 100%
A gift
Few have and even fewer recognize even if they do.
Or the ability to bring it out.
Been an Alice In Chains fan since the release.
Soundgarden
Stone Temple Pilots
Pearl Jam
Sublime
Tool
Oh yeah..
Best front man ever?
Robert Plant or Chris Cornell?
@@chrishemphill4535 Cornell is better than Plant IMO.
@@alandarnell1885
I tend to Agree
But…
Different times.. different music
Kinda hard to find fault with either one of them at their craft
Kinda like comparing Jon Bonham and Neil Peart..
Really hard to split that hair
No matter how many times I watch this performance it never gets old
Love and appreciate y'all! Love your channel and been a subby for prolly over a year now, Take care, be safe and keep on!
Legendary🖤🎸
Lordy this still hits me hard after all these years.
Was popular all the way here in New Zealand.
Check out Mad Season another legendary side band that Layne Staley was in
Layne did that whole performance toothless RIP LEGEND
Holding red flowers in her tomb...😢
Alice in chains was my favorite group in the 90s !!!
I love when you guys cover the music I grew up on and still listen to on a daily! You can really relate to all their music if you’ve been in tough or hard times ever… keep it up. Cover COREY TAYLOR SNUFF!!
Down in a Hole is their best song ever. Everyone feels it. Y’all are awesome. I lived these years as a teen. The Jar of Flies album is like nothing else.
I think the fly part is he wants to go to heaven , but certain he's going to hell due to his struggles. This is what I got from this. Always
Yep
90s where is was at definitely some of the best tunes came out in the 90s
If I remember correctly, Dirt was written and recorded while the band was going through rehab and therapy for drug addiction. It is a visceral and realistic expression of a difficult journey.
RIP Layne gone never forgotten
You guys are great ❤️
Love your channel, Asia chocking up got me tho 🥲
I say stay long enough to repay all who cause strife. 🥶
2 people on that stage are no longer with us. The bassist, Mike Starr, went on a downward spiral after Layne passed and passed in 2011.
Another pitch for, "It Ain't Like That" Stolen comment:
"IT AIN'T LIKE THAT came out of a riff that guitarist Jerry Cantrell cited as a cool mistake. The lyrics could be traced back to the band's disillusionment with Los Angeles. They were wide-eyed kids from Seattle headed to Los Angeles - the city of angels. When they got to Los Angeles, it was not what they expected. The Sunset Strip that had been the haunt of Van Halen, The Doors, Motley Crue, Poison, and Guns N’ Roses was nothing like the club circuit they played in Seattle.
The 1980s music scene that clubs on the Sunset Strip thrived on for a decade was dying out. Compared to the Sunset Strip in 1989-90, the Central Tavern looked like a nightclub in the Ritz Hotel. The lyric: Sign the deal, set in motion / Smaller fish, so huge the ocean had not been a more appropriate description of their situation.
IT AIN'T LIKE THAT (from the Facelift album) and WOULD? (that showed up on the Dirt album) appeared on the Singles soundtrack because Seattle, Washington as big as the town is, musically it's a small town. All the bands that came out of the Seattle scene knew each other and went to see each other play the club circuit. Cameron Crowe is married to Nancy Wilson of the band Heart and he wanted to make a movie about the Seattle music scene and made Singles where a fictional band, Citizen Dick opened for Alice In Chains. They used It Ain't Like That from the Facelift album and Cameron Crowe gave them money to demo songs... AIC took the money, they demoed the 6 acoustic songs that are on SAP EP and two songs Rooster and Would? that ended up on the Dirt album. Cameron Crowe picked through the songs and used Would? out of the bunch. Jerry thought the song was strong enough to be included on the Dirt album and that's how Would? ended up on the Singles soundtrack and the same version ended up on Dirt.
Whenever you see Bad Animals Studios in the liner notes, at the time the album was recorded, Bad Animals Studios was owned by Ann and Nancy Wilson of Heart.
Layne Staley's vocal range can run rings around any other grunge singer in my opinion. Layne could sing the phone book and never hit a wrong note. Even at the end of his life, with no teeth and a lisp, his voice, wit and humor were all still there. Layne's voice and vocal range was so powerful he did NOT need auto tune or pro-tools until he lost his teeth and had a lisp around 1998, and even then he still killed the vocals.
Barrett Martin (who played with Layne in Mad Season) said that when he stood to the side of the stage, he could hear the sound of Layne vocal resonance come out of Layne's body LOUDER than it did coming out of the speakers, Layne's voice was that powerful.
I have Rooster nutshell down in a hole in almost every play list
We lost another Raw great one and right after this band dropped him weeks later found dead 😢😢😢
Love it I have never gotten tired of APC in over 30 years I have been listening to them my hole life dang I’m getting old
I love y’all’s reaction
He knew he wasn’t going to come back from his addiction truly another great performance
Woowwww that’s exactly what I was thinking, they don’t want us to all unite through music!!💪😂⚡️We won’t be stopped tho!!
It's basically like telling everyone your already gone ...so sad and you wanted to help him but you could tell it was inevitable 😥
In the 90s and I’m from Virginia and Layne and Kurt both were from Washington state and loved them both
Dude is half asleep and still killing. it's sad and great at the same time.
I love you Mike
Seattle and Olympia are still centers for DIY rockers. 🎸
Haha, he really didn't want to make any mistakes. It was very important to him. As you can see there's a ton of words to get right. It's not the hardest song to belt out but I bet it's extremely hard to cover because it's pretty fast paced and you gotta remember the words and make everything fit right. I mean I've heard people cover AIC songs but they don't attempt this one, I've noticed, even though everyone loves it. I think the song's about their record label telling them how and when to make music for them.
There is another MTV Unplugged song I'd like you guys to look at. One of the best Unplugged songs that I've heard is Kiss "I Still Love You". There are so many that think that Kiss is not very good, once you listen to this song it will change your mind.
100%.
Only if Paul didn't ham it up at the end!
Seattle
More AIC please - live at the moore, dirt, frogs unplugged
Layne was the man, one of a kind.
