      The other great lead singer voice of the Grunge era is Chris Cornell (R.I.P.) of Soundgarden (and Audioslave). I recommend Soundgarden's biggest hit, "Black Hole Sun". I'll undoubtedly get ripped about Layne Staley (R.I.P.) of the band Alice in Chains, and Scott Weiland (R.I.P.) of Stone Temple Pilots, and you should absolutely listen to some of their songs to get a real feel for the Grunge movement as a whole.

      I’ve always loved Pearl Jam & Eddies voice blew me away the very first day I heard it many years ago. This is my favourite version of this song, because it really pulls on the feels for him which makes the feels pull on me & I just want to give him a hug & cry with him! I love Pearl Jam & just about every song. But this one is my favourite because of the emotions he makes me feel with those lyrics. I think most of us have been there. 😢

      @@Shake69ificationgreat song for sure but so many of their deeper cuts are also amazing. Wash, breath, garden, oceans. His vocals on W.M.A off Vs. are so soaring and atmospheric. I could go on but hell they have over 300 songs. Release- live in Holland is a religious experience. Definitely look that one up.

    It always makes me so happy to see the reaction of someone that I know wasn't alive when this originally aired, or was way too young to remember it. I remember this MTV unplugged episode vividly, and Pearl Jam was definitely a huge part of my younger life. His voice is so unique. You instantly know who's singing.

  • @alchemist3661
    @alchemist3661 11 місяців тому +17

    Eddie Vedder goes beyond technique. As a singer, he doesn't do all these inane runs, and he doesn't have a super huge range. But in my opinion, there is no other singer that can convey as much sheer emotion as Eddie.

  • @ilikecheese1970

    That raspiness, that scratching of the voice, like claws scratching on rocks, it's a form of art that is disappearing, few people are teaching it anymore, and it's a beautiful way to convey and capture emotions as you can see in this song. I hope this way of singing doesn't disappear.

  • @DerekScottBland
    @DerekScottBland Рік тому +35

    You need to listen to Temple of the Dog, "Hunger Strike." Chris Cornell wanted to pay tribute to his deceased friend, Andrew Wood, the singer for Mother Love Bone. Chris teamed with the surviving members, and new singer Eddie Vedder to make a tribute album, and Eddie would join the members of Mother Love Bone to form Pearl Jam.

  • @filterfreephotography

    This song was very personal to Eddie. It was about a very bad break-up. You can see how his body language changes through out the performance. his hands start up and he is a bit open, then his hands and arms close up when it starts getting more painful, and then end is just pure agony.
    If I remember, they rarely played this song live because of the emotion.
    A great follow on is Hunger Strike by Temple of the Dog. It highlights Chris Cornell and Eddie as singers.

  • @danabomb100
    @danabomb100 Рік тому +4

    This is truly a very powerful performance-indicative of the ‘big guns’ (him, Layne, Chris, etc) - of that era. They just had a way of plucking the strings of your soul. They didnt just sing - they push out sounds with such emotion capable of bringing people to their knees (so to speak). They go ALL IN - and we go with them.

    He didn’t want to put this on the album because it was too painful for him but they talked him into it. When he says All I taught her was EVERYTHING, he then whispers that’s ALL. Only in this version. It’s killer. Then his flip to his head voice back down to chest in one motion no breathe is amazing.

  • @aliwantizu
    @aliwantizu Рік тому +4

    One of the greatest live performances captured on video. Eddie's gift is/was his ability to put so much emotion into his singing. 30 years later, he's still doing a great job but those early years...wow. Incredibly, he was somewhat ill that day and was unsure about singing, and that may explain any "cracks" in his voice, but many feel that it added to his sound, not detracted from it. Another great live song to watch is of Pearl Jam live at Pink Pop 1992 performing their song Porch. It is somewhat interesting from a singer analysis point of view, but more so in the complete performance. 🎶 (lol I couldn't find the emoji because I was looking for it to be black but it's blue here on YT, lol)

    A little history on Unplugged. Unplugged on MTV arrived right after the Milli Vanilli controversy where they won a Grammy and then had to come out and admit they lip synced everything and it was other people singing the music. Unplugged was MTVs way of ferreting this stuff out. You had to be able to prove your chops, play and sing well without any electric or electronic help. I really wish they'd bring this back.

    There are not a lot of singers who can convey these kinds of raw authentic enlived emotions and write such touching lyrics drawn from their own real life experiences like Eddie Vedder. The songs that he wrote on request from Sean Penn for the movie "Into the Wild" are such masterpieces. The song "Alive", that he wrote about the death of his father that he never got to know crawls under your skind into your bones. In fact, all the songs that he wrote and sang are good. I heard him sing the song "You can close your eyes" (James Taylor song) with Natalie Maines during "Voices for Justice" at the WM3 rally August 2010 in Little Rock, and it was incredible. Never heard somebody sing such a beautiful little song while impacting so deeply.

    The subject matter of the lyrics was incredibly personal to Eddie and he was NOT happy with the popularity of the song and never intended for it to be a big hit that so many people would know. It was SUPPOSEDLy about a very personal relationship that ended for Eddie that he did not wish to end.
    Then; the unplugged performance happened as it was a big song for them. So, they did it on unplugged and Eddie forgot a bit of the song so early on it went in a bit of differnt direction lyrically (I prefer it ^_^ ) and later in the song he, again, went in a different direction and imporvised lyrically when he started saying WE BELONG ... WE BELONG TOGETHER - which is NOT on the studio version.
    It is alreadya HIGHLY emtional song but in the live performance it elevates all of that for the audience and the performer to be something that could potentionally be considered one of the ultimate RECORDED emotional performances of a song of all time.
    Very nice reaction ^_^

    To me, this is the signature song for male heartache. all of us that have experienced the loss of love from a woman we truly cherished knows exactly how he felt writing this song. this is powerful... much like Sugarland's Stay. Anyone who's not seen that official video should go check it out. Another great singer in pain, and just like Eddie... brave enough to share that pain with the rest of us so it can comfort us in our time(s) of need...

    Pearl Jam makes the most unusual love songs, usually unhappy unrequited love. I am thinking of Wishlist. 🎶

    that vocal style you mention in the beginning Eddie Vedder was the originator of that sound.

    Any time I see a new reaction to "Pearl Jam - Black" I'll watch it just to see how different people react to their first listen of the song.
    I'd suggest checking out some Mike Patton stuff as he has a 6.5 octave range and is versatile in his vocal styles. His stuff with Faith No More like Midlife Crisis, Ashes To Ashes and I Started A Joke will give a little insight to his talent.

    Good reaction Maggie, I like that you spoke about that grit in his voice. The song itself is very emotional, kind of makes you look at your own past. Three eighth notes, or should we call them a beat and a half?

    The description you read at the beginning had one blatant mistake. Pearl Jam did the opposite of promoting grunge music. They were often weary of promotional efforts.
    They promoted causes they believe in, but I believe they promoted themselves (and grunge as an art form) as little as possible.

    Yea. That wasn't Eddie being artistic at the end of the song. That was pure emotional pain being radiated into the atmosphere via his voice. Its a very personal song for him, and he completely lost himself in it for a few moments, there

  • @artsilva
    @artsilva Рік тому +2

    It's called natural talent and deep emotion, I don't think Eddie cares one bit about what technique he is using and how, he is just singing his ass off.

    13:08 Yeah interesting question, probably comes with treading the boundaries of your max volume on high pitch repetitively, like if anybody knows I'd like to know myself 😄 "calluses" on the vocal chords? John Lennon once asked Paul after a concert, "how do you do that?" talking about the grit and Paul said it simply "comes out on the top of my lungs". Then later, before a concert, Paul wasn't feeling confident and asked John "how do you do that?" and John replied; "it just comes out on the top of your lungs". It goes to show it's kinda hard to explain.

    If you are interested in hearing original sounding singers perhaps you will consider reacting to Elizabeth Fraser of the Coctau Twins/This Mortal Coil. Songs I would suggest are Song to the Siren (live) and Iceblink Luck.

    In all honesty no disrepect but who cares about the technique in a performance like this... this is raw artistic expression... just sit back and enjoy... no need to critique or analyze every different line... just take it in
