i been an acoustic rhythem guitarist and part time vocalist for over 25 years... you need to understand you need to go get yourself a signing. You deserve it mate. So nice to hear raw vocals no auto tune no post processing autotune either. No pitch correction just legit. Thank you friend for sharing this. (The ending gave me B. Withers vibes)
@@grimreaper4015 oh thanks for letting me know what I've done in my life mr grim. You go to all channels just to be toxic? If you have nothing better to do than i feel sorry for ya. Anyway back to enjoying the music for me.
Wow.. no words , i tried to comment while watching this... yet found it so hauntingly beautiful i couldn't until you played the last chord. Not only have you fully captured the depth and soul of Layne , you've breathed new light and life into it. Play on maestro play on!
Great job man! I really enjoy playing this one myself… you really go for it with those high parts. I usually whistle that stuff out.. I always say, Layne Staley will forever be underrated to people that aren’t musicians. Only a musician trying to play/sing an AiC song can truly appreciate how much talent Layne had. RiP Forver young! I think the mtv unplugged performance was my favourite of this. What an even sadder show now in hindsight.
@@stevenshaw1689 It’s hard to not get hooked on the unplugged AIC.. What an incredible show that must have been to see live. It’s one of the best and most raw they ever did. You did a beautiful job with it and should be proud.
The live version of “River of Deceit” Mad Season Seattle 1995 is another work of art by Layne. It’s far better than the studio version. The lyrics speak to everyone in one sense or another.
@@jjp009 so, this guitar is a baritone. Capo 5 is standard tuning. I play most things on capo 4 so it’s easier to sing. But I guess I’m singing this one and the same tuning as AIC, nice!
You know I see a lot of covers for this song, not calling them bad or anything, they just didn't catch my ear like the original. You sir have done a fantastic job those high notes were completely unexpected. Good job sir RIP layne and mike
Lyrics We chase misprinted lies We face the path of time And yet I fight, and yet I fight This battle all alone No one to cry to No place to call home Ooh Ooh-ooh Ooh Ooh-ooh My gift of self is raped My privacy is raked And yet I find, and yet I find Repeating in my head If I can't be my own I'd feel better dead Ooh Ooh-ooh Ooh
Damn, this was unexpected and caught me off guard. Excellent cover, probably the best I've heard from raw vocals. Layne's vocals are tough to get right, but you killed it. Thank you for sharing.
@@stevenshaw1689 You definetly got it. If I had a voice like yours I would make videos on Nutshell. Eddie Veders Black. Maybe even Plush by Stone Temple Pilots. Nirvanas, The man that saved the world. So many that will suit your voice. Your subscriber base will go up Bigtime. You got 75k views and I never broke 10k views on this channel and I have nearly 20k subscribers. You are way ahead of everyone else. Keep it going. I am a subscriber.
Great you man! I did a cover of Nutshell myself. Alice In Chains is one of my favorite bands by far. It is a crime how few subscribers you have. Best of luck to you.
I have to ask you to dedicate this to my great friend Kurt J Brazee. He loved this fucking song, so do I. This is the best I have ever heard. You have a lot of heart and soul for music my friend. I'll be contacting you for a party soon if you agree.
Wow!! That was Great!! I have never heard anyone cover that song before because no one on this earth could ever sound like the one and only Layne Staley. But you really did it Justice. And playing the guitar too! 🤘🏼👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Excellent cover....really nicely done....I would like to offer one small suggestion, if I may. I would try to find a way to incorporate the bass guitar.
I love this! Are you tuned a whole or half step down with capo on the 4th? I really love the sound also you ha e a wonderful voice for this. Would love to hear you do otherside by staind or Zoe Jane!
I started this song and before he start singing I got interrupted. I came back to my phone several minutes later and hit play. I was really feeling it, then I looked down and saw this dude. I was confused, I had forgotten this was a cover. I could barely tell.
I'm trying to learn several songs including this one. Ive seen guys tune down half a note for this song, you use a capon...i like that. PS great voice (my Lane is dead on, poor choice of words?)
@@johnsantostefano3373 thanks man! This is actually a baritone guitar. Capo 5 would be standard tuning. I have it on capo 4 so I’m in the same tuning as the AIC version.
@@wizaasir I’m pretty much playing what the regular chords of the song are. The only difference is I play everything drop D so the fingering is a little different.

La 2 voces imposibles de imitar chester Benito Layne Staley
This has blown me away. This is my favourite song, and you brought it back to life. Strong and beautifully done
Wow, that’s way too kind. Thank you!
F*ck... this was completely unexpected and you caught me off-guard. Hard to match Layne's voice, but your interpretation was spot on.
Thank you so much!
@stevenshawco1143 WOW BRO, DEFINITELY WASN'T EXPECTING THIS, BUT YOU KILLED IT!! LAYNE IS MY FAVORITE SINGER AND YOU JUST GOT A NEW FAN!
I agree.
This song is one of my favorite Alice in chains song and it's very difficult to give it justice my man you did a great job im sure Layne is impressed
Oh man, what a compliment, thank you! 🙏🏽
Wow.. no words , i tried to comment while watching this... yet found it so hauntingly beautiful i couldn't until you played the last chord. Not only have you fully captured the depth and soul of Layne , you've breathed new light and life into it. Play on maestro play on!
@@synnerdragon9311 wow man, best compliment ever. Thank you so much. And stay in touch!
You manage to convey the beauty of the art and pain of the lyrics. Well done!
Oh wow, best compliment ever, thank you!
I grew up listening to Alice and Layne and saw Jerry live in person. Well done sir. Emotions were there.
@@rogueteach5197 thank you so much!
One of my all time favorites and we cover this in my band. Well sung and well played. Great cover.
Thank you sir!
Excellent cover man! Really beautiful work! Layne"s fans appreciate this masterpiece!
Oh man, thank you!
This is the closest you can come to Layne without being Layne. Amazing!
Wow, thanks man!
Couldnt have said it better myself
Great cover man..I really didn’t know what to expect,Layne is a tough act to follow but you did an excellent job
@@garrettferrell6821 wow, thank you so much!

Dude, thank you and are correct on everything! I’m a metal head and didn’t like AIC until the unplugged “Nutshell” then was obsessed with all of it!

Thank you so much!
Wow yeah that was unexpected. Have not heard a lot of good Nutshell covers. Superb mate, thanks for sharing.
@@MrJoshmate87 wow, thank you so much!
One of my favorite songs to sing. You crushed it man!
Thank you so much!
Sweet job. Well kept acoustic. Nice song choice
@@scottmurray3812 thank you! It was this song that made me fall in love with AIC.
I stumbled onto your video... Fantastic rendition.... Really.. 🤘
Thank you sir!
I never heard this in such a high key, but it sure was beautiful. Great job.
I think it’s the same key, isn’t it? Anyway, thank you!
@@stevenshaw1689 Well, you have a capo on the fourth fret. And isn't the original version tuned down a half step and no capo?
@@jjp009 so, this guitar is a baritone. Capo 5 is standard tuning. I play most things on capo 4 so it’s easier to sing. But I guess I’m singing this one and the same tuning as AIC, nice!
@@stevenshaw1689 Ahhh, all questions have been answered! Thank you. Lol!
@@jjp009 haha
Damn! Some songs you might not think you wanna hear a cover of. This is one for me. But you did it justice. Great job!
Wow man, thank you!
Great rendition of this song. Hats off to a job well done. I like how you gave it a slight country flair without taking away from the song.
@@davideade3641 thanks sir. That’s funny because I’m not even a country guy. I just wear different hats when I perform.
Man, I wasn’t expecting that great voice, great cover, keep it up!
Haha, nice. And thank you!
Goosebumps.. so pretty! AIC is my favorite band. Thank you !
Thank you so much! Fantastic band.
What the what? Dang dude, beautiful tone. Really great cover. I'm in.
Thank you!
Superb mate ! Never gets old
Thank you!
Freaking awesome. 🎉
That high note was perfect!
Thank you so much!
This is a great cover of a beautiful song. You've done it justice. Well done mate.

Lyrics
We chase misprinted lies
We face the path of time
And yet I fight, and yet I fight
This battle all alone
No one to cry to
No place to call home
Ooh
Ooh-ooh
Ooh
Ooh-ooh
My gift of self is raped
My privacy is raked
And yet I find, and yet I find
Repeating in my head
If I can't be my own
I'd feel better dead
Ooh
Ooh-ooh
Ooh
