My mother passed away 6 days ago. I was playing this exact video and also singing to her. It was an honor and privilege that my mom passed peacefully with me singing our favorite song. Say hello to Chris for me Momma. I love you ❤🕊
"This song is called Like a Stone. My name is Chris Cornell. It goes like this". Humility and unabated talent of a real artist. Wish I could have heard him live.
Ron Short I realize how lucky I am to have seen him on his Higher Truth tour a year or so before he passed. I also saw him with Soundgarden. I was in the 12th row and it was one of the best concerts I’ve seen!
Holy, Fuck...no one sings like you anymore, Son. Fucking phenomenal talent. God Bless you in, Heaven. I still cry whenever I hear this but THIS, version?! Holy Hell. 💜💔💜
I went to see Rage Against The Machine (with Public Enemy) they played this song with no singer, just a light on an empty mic stand where Chris should have been. One of the most emotional things I've seen.
My wife passed away 4 years ago. I have listened to this song every day since she took to the afterlife without me. I will wait for you my Wild Irish Rose until I see you again. I wait like a stone... for you. Alone.
Sorry for your loss, if I may extend a song to you that has helped me greatly with a similar loss. "In the Woods Somewhere" by the Irish singer Hozier. The human connection with love and death is so complex
I used to listen to this song before learning to speak english.. It's been almost 10 years and now that I understand what it says... I can't help it.. I can't stop crying for him. It's just a master piece
@@captlucky2320 well to be fair heroin boosts the fuck out of the creative juices. unfortunately this effect is overshadowed by the undying need for more heroin in most cases.
Seen him in Glasgow on Higher truth tour... the crowd were in awe... still the best performance I've ever seen! RIP big man. No one sings like you any more
Six years ago today you left this world...💔Your music and your voice live on with the rest of us. You are much missed Chris. Hope you find peace where you are now. "Be Yourself Is All That You Can Do.." Chris Cornell July 20, 1964 - May 18, 2017. ⭐ 18th May 2023
Ok I‘m 52 years old and I just listened to this song for the first time. And to be honest this was the best song I ever heard. Truly amazing and left me in tears. I hope he found peace
I just heard this song a couple weeks ago. It's my first real song to learn on the guitar. So motivating. This tells me he was welcoming his own death. So sad. He's so talented. I can't think about this song without contemplating my own eventual end...
52.. that's how old Chris was when he took his life, I hope that now his suffering has ended, he can be proud of his legacy, and know what he meant to all of us, I'm glad that more and more people are finding out his true talent, because he deserves the world for what he gave us.
@@duke7143 Freddie doesn't have shit on Chris Cornell. Freddie Mercury was just too poppy, Chris conveyed meaning a lot more sincerely. Let alone that Chris is just a fucking God with his belting compared to your precious mercury, cheers. Freddie was great, Chris was a god. Of course to each his own opinion, I can't convince you if you connect more to Freddie's music. To me Chris Cornell is one of the greatest of all time and certainly above Mercury on the list.
I’m not sure of your age, but I am 41. I grew up listening to bands like Soundgarden (Audioslave was a generation removed haha, but I was still aware of them). I knew Cornell could sing. That was obvious. However, I also had a jaw-drop moment when I started listening to his acoustic work. Man, oh man. What a talent!
It's easy to do, friend. I hope all is well with you. Love watching all of these crazy good acoustic performances. His vocal mic technique is fascinating to watch on top of the heart poured into the performances. We are all fortunate to be in this timeline to experience this.
Im battling depression at the moment, 2020-2021 it's been the hardest time in my life. If you're out there going through the same just know that you're not alone, and we can beat this.
It's cause it's a solo. The loneliness depicted by the lyrics is amplified because of the single instrument and the single person in frame. Gives the song more weight, makes it more haunting.
Chris , said this song he wrote was about a man waiting for death- after he saw the death of his many friends before him die- waiting in a room like a stone- I saw this song spoken about in an interview with Timmy C. & Audioslave speaking about Chris's lyrics. 💔
Easily one of, if not the best rock singers there has ever been. His voice is next level. Being a decent singer is an achievement in itself but this guy was gifted. R.I.P Bro.
Being mostly on my own, Chris was with me through some of my darkest moments on this Earth. Would have been so much harder without him. R.I.P. Chris, and thank you for being there for me.
When this song was introduced to the band.... they asked Chris who he was waiting for (thinking it was a woman). He replied "Death". This is a suicide song wrapped in religious imagery. One of my favorite artists of all time and what a loss of an unparralelled talent.
could be about suicide but it seems to me to be more just about death in general. the deathbed part makes me think that. usually suicidal people don't have a deathbed.
RIP Chris. One year ago I had the chance to hear him live for the first and last time in the Ancient Amphitheatre in Plovdiv, Bulgaria. After each song, the 10,000 + audience would stand up and applaud for around 30 seconds. Literally, after every song. No one could believe how amazing his performance actually was, I had seen countless of live videos, but on that night he nailed absolutely every single note and he played for 2 hours straight leaving the audience absolutely stunned. It felt like he was in the peak of his abilities. It was surely one of the most powerful music experiences I ever had. I still can't believe he passed today, because I can still imagine how he sounded in that Amphitheatre like it was yesterday.
Daniel Ivanov first time I saw him at Lollapalooza 2 in 1992 with Soundgarden of course , that was amazing when his style / grunge first hit the scene, and introduce the soul too many great talents but I see Chris Cornell as the king
Thanks for talking about that experience. That is a perfect example of how amazing he sounded and, wow...that was after 25 - 30 years of singing too! There just aren't many singers who can sound that good for that long. I'm glad you and the audience gave him the standing ovations, because he obviously deserved that. ✌️✌️👊👊
I am late coming to his music, 66 and raising children but discovered him 2 years ago. He has a magnificent voice, such soulful eyes they stare through you. So sad to lose him.
That's not fair 😅 are you suggesting that everyone should be held to the same standard as Chris Cornell? I think that would discourage most musicians, even pros.
Pay attention to the distance he is from the mic. What a voice. The feeling, the talent, the execution. Just a man and his guitar, showing us how humanity can be incredible sometimes...
The distance from the microphone varies in the fact of is it a condenser or a dynamic mic. This is a Neumann condenser so he has to be farther away. Cornell is, in my opinion, the greatest vocal in rock when it comes to technique (favorite in sound is Layne Staley).
In my opinion the best recorded version of this song Chris had a gift of true beauty with his voice that will never be matched It still doesn’t feel real that he’s not with us anymore
I always come back to this. I still can't believe he is gone. The greatest of all time no question. Just how lucky we were to have this man in our lifetime.
God I miss this dude putting music out into the world. He died on my first day of sobriety and I remember listening to his songs over and over as I was writhing and sick in my house. It makes these songs hit me so much harder thinking about it.
I always loved that song but this particular performance of it could bring me to tears... Anyone who has loved and lost can feel the pain and sorrow in his voice... as a Musician and Vocalist, Chris Cornell is True Greatness
Since my wife left me, this song is hard to listen to. It says everything I feel sitting in our empty house alone, like a stone waiting for her and the kids to come back. This version made me sob like a baby. I haven't cried like that since my stepfather past away. This song got me the closest I have ever been to ending my life.
Hey man.. I haven't been through that but my father passed away recently. I found what really helped me when I felt lonely was to be with my friends and family as much as possible. Even just going out somewhere busy that had lots of people I didn't even know made me feel somewhat connected and grounded. Everything will work out for you, hang in there bud.. we're all rooting for you in the comment section
Always come back to Chris Cornell songs when I enjoy loneliness... doesn't matter any day,week,month,year whatsoever.....His voice soothes my mind , touching somewhere inside soul with the unleashed feelings...and the unplugged version of song is always an icing on the cake :) Love and respect to my favorite rock singer. #always live on hearts #rip
Chris was awsome in all those bands and in solo. Both bands were 2 of my favourites bands of all time. They had great names (and it's rare) with significant and simple meaning (thanks to Chris) and amazing songs that sounded like no one else. I would love your input on the first video of my first album. It got the attention of one of my heroes Joe Bouchard (ex bass player founding members of BÖC) but returns from people who likes same music is always the best. If you have just 3 minutes to listen and a bit more to comment, that would mean the world to me : ua-cam.com/video/Pu_p1wbaCa8/v-deo.html and our special cover of Madworld : ua-cam.com/video/hhnGZSn-6d4/v-deo.html Stay safe and keep rockin' !
One of the greatest voices out there this guy is amazing! The more you listen to him the more you appreciate his talents,hope he s around for a looooong!!!! Time
When I’m alone and in my feels and sad, Chris Cornell is the only one who gives me peace, contentment and hope. I will miss you forever my brother, gone too soon :(
People often speak of Cornell's vocal abilities and rightly so. However, this sometimes overshadows his immense, endless talent of individual expression -specifically lyrically. This song is truly an artful, an art form in & of itself!
This song just hits my soul at times it makes me cry. His voice is absolutely phenomenal and I'm in awe with him. RIP 🙏 thank you for blessing us with your presence and voice.
Always loved this song and today was the first day I read all the lyrics. But I never felt I needed to. You could just feel the song, the raw emotion behind it. To be honest, I don't think I've ever "felt" a song quite like this one before.
I first heard Audioslave when i was a kid playing "Flat out 2". I didn't know english then, but i still loved the songs. Chris is still my favorite artist
Such a perfect voice. I struggle to sing this as naturally as Chris does, but it's simply not repetitable. A true masterpiece. Rest in peace Chris, you did so much good for this world.
2024 and I still miss Chris Cornell every day.
Always 🙏🏼🤍
Chris will be forever missed ❤
One of the best vocalists ever
Yea
Why?
If this song isn't played at my funeral I'm not going.
My mother passed away 6 days ago. I was playing this exact video and also singing to her. It was an honor and privilege that my mom passed peacefully with me singing our favorite song. Say hello to Chris for me Momma. I love you ❤🕊
Rest in Peace
Sorry for your loss, Brother. She will greet you in Heaven someday.
sorry for you loss.

RIP to your mother and chris! May they rest easy in a beautiful place!!!
“What’s your vocal range?”
Chris: “Yes”
2 yrs later. Yes. He was amazing!
"This song is called Like a Stone. My name is Chris Cornell. It goes like this". Humility and unabated talent of a real artist. Wish I could have heard him live.
Rip Chris Cornell. .no one screams like you anymore. .a savage beauty. .a gentle soul filled with unrest..in a world gone mad

agree. what a loss. still hurts
saw him in Indy in 2016, i was moved to tears
His voice is the perfect balance of smooth and rough.
Sbeast nailed it
I was there too we'll miss Chris from soundgarden to audioslave he will be remembered r.i.p chris
Like honey poured over thunder
Perfect bro perfect
And 4.5 octave range which is almost unheard of.

Much love
His voice is so unreal. It feels like hes gone flying and taken you with him.
Well said.
As Jack Black says, he goes through portals
I couldn’t think of a more accurate description
Actually I think him going to take me... im so fkn sad... as never before...
I confess I was lost on a pages of a book full of death..... for the first time i don't feel scared to death.... fck the death....
I went to see Rage Against The Machine (with Public Enemy) they played this song with no singer, just a light on an empty mic stand where Chris should have been. One of the most emotional things I've seen.
John - wow man, that’s an emotional experience. Still, one of a lifetime
John - I was there. Emotional. My wife filmed it; ua-cam.com/video/cDjWcWWfUgE/v-deo.html

Fuck.
Wow 😔
Chris was like a kid going to a science contest, and casually presenting a nuclear reactor as a project.
Dude, this is just a masterpiece.

Ha I did something like that...I wont give too many specifics but I almost got kicked out

Nobody can.

@@DuchessFerro for sure.. That dude kinda sounds like Chris..
Well I’d say Dave Grohl did a great job performing Like a stone
For all that miss Chris...Please check out Big Wreck/Ian Thornley, you will not regret it I promise you.
im here and the year 2021 has came I just wondering who’s here to revive memories..
I am. Man so much raw talent when he was younger then he grew to the legend he is. RIP Chris
Same. Amazing voice
Oath bro
Came here looking for a good cry... Happens every time I hear this man sing ❤️
As a college student, this is a reliever for me whenever I have a hard/stressful week. Hope whoever is listening to this is doing ok.
Still here in 2023

Yeah he is my favorite rock singer :)

And then you led me on...last verse...omg...l cried
2:15 and then you led me on.....heartfelt
I showed my gf this video and she made me repeat that part like 5 times lol
This whole version gives me chills

No one sings like you anymore
Umm Richie kotzen sounds nearly identical. That said it is sad to see him go.
@@zephirol4638 it's a quote from his song black hole sun.
Newman Becker it’s a double entendre though as well
Jeez. Thanks for making me cry. Guess I'll listen to that next.
@@zephirol4638 What you said it is insulting. Cornell wrote and sang to a different level to that Kotzen plastic poop pop singer
Other live performers: “lower the song a couple keys so it’s easier to sing”
Chris Cornell: “raise it by a key or two please..”
But then it's easier to play xd
I do the original key!
@@gatomaneixon se supone que chris es baritono, asi que no
Oh yeah....what an amazing range he had!
I guess for some singers "easier" is just where they sound their best.
2 steps up brother
Almost 6 years gone and I still cry when I hear this version. RIP brother.
It's easy to do, friend. I hope all is well with you. Love watching all of these crazy good acoustic performances. His vocal mic technique is fascinating to watch on top of the heart poured into the performances. We are all fortunate to be in this timeline to experience this.
This may be Chris Cornel's best vocal recording that you'll ever hear. Very underrated IMO.
It’s up there with his live performance of “When I’m Down” at the Troubadour in 2010.
Im battling depression at the moment, 2020-2021 it's been the hardest time in my life. If you're out there going through the same just know that you're not alone, and we can beat this.
How you doing ?
Hugs to you, don't give up.
Stay strong my fellow human.
Keep fighting and stay strong
I am thinking about you.
The original studio version was great, but something about this hits even harder. Such beautiful emotion in his voice.
yes he was one of the best vocalists of all time
It's cause it's a solo. The loneliness depicted by the lyrics is amplified because of the single instrument and the single person in frame. Gives the song more weight, makes it more haunting.

Talents like Chris pay the price for what music is supposed to sound like. Raw. Real. Righteous.
Im an emotional guy. This brings me to tears. Legends never die
It never gets old.. this dude imo is one of the best vocal singers of all time..
Easily one of, if not the best rock singers there has ever been. His voice is next level. Being a decent singer is an achievement in itself but this guy was gifted. R.I.P Bro.
I honestly can't think of anybody who can touch him. His voice is absolutely beautiful.
I'm an almost 30 year old man and this makes me almost cry every time I listen to it. Such a voice on him. Sorely missed.
I successfully introduced my 17 year old daughter to this generation of music and she loves it. Genius has no generation.
I'm 40 and I weep like a baby.
Dont worry buddy, it does exactly the same to me.
"Of a book full of death reading how we die alone." This man wrote lyrics like no other.
Being mostly on my own, Chris was with me through some of my darkest moments on this Earth. Would have been so much harder without him.
R.I.P. Chris, and thank you for being there for me.
Good of you to never forget...
But who could?
I hear that.
When this song was introduced to the band.... they asked Chris who he was waiting for (thinking it was a woman). He replied "Death". This is a suicide song wrapped in religious imagery. One of my favorite artists of all time and what a loss of an unparralelled talent.
Yes, as if he was foretelling his end.
could be about suicide but it seems to me to be more just about death in general. the deathbed part makes me think that. usually suicidal people don't have a deathbed.
I always think of an elderly person waiting for death to be reunited with their loved one whenever I hear this song.
Seemed obvious
@@tiberiius think he thought of his life as a deathbed..as sick and dieing in even the best years of his life..that's true depression right there.

Probably the best perfomance i've seen in my life
Life is too short, spent this evening watching Chris Cornell, Chester Bennington, Taylor Hawkins, Layne Stayley. Taken too early RIP

No one can
No singer has ever stirred my emotions like Chris Cornell... why are all my favorites gone?
No bells and whistles, just talent in it's most purest form. Wish you were still here.

That voice there’s no one
Pay attention to the distance he is from the mic. What a voice. The feeling, the talent, the execution. Just a man and his guitar, showing us how humanity can be incredible sometimes...
That's a condenser mic, not a dynamic one so ideal distance is a bit less than a foot away.
But yeah, powerful voice!!!
The distance from the microphone varies in the fact of is it a condenser or a dynamic mic. This is a Neumann condenser so he has to be farther away.
Cornell is, in my opinion, the greatest vocal in rock when it comes to technique (favorite in sound is Layne Staley).

Who else is here listening in 2020? And who thinks this is one of his best vocal performances?
Absolutely, one of his best. He had so many amazing ones.
God I miss this dude putting music out into the world. He died on my first day of sobriety and I remember listening to his songs over and over as I was writhing and sick in my house. It makes these songs hit me so much harder thinking about it.
Our time here is so short. Live your best life, take chances and create memories.
I always loved that song but this particular performance of it could bring me to tears... Anyone who has loved and lost can feel the pain and sorrow in his voice... as a Musician and Vocalist, Chris Cornell is True Greatness
This comment has new meaning today
Jimmy J looking back now, it was a prophetic comment.
Danny Reneau it sure does... I'm at a loss for words...
happyjolly77able I feel like this Song, Fell On Black Days and Nearly Forgot My Broken Heart define his passing now.
Jimmy J Very sad :/
Wow, I could listen to that voice all day long, he sings this song with so much pain and longing... amazing!
Since my wife left me, this song is hard to listen to. It says everything I feel sitting in our empty house alone, like a stone waiting for her and the kids to come back. This version made me sob like a baby. I haven't cried like that since my stepfather past away. This song got me the closest I have ever been to ending my life.
Hey man.. I haven't been through that but my father passed away recently. I found what really helped me when I felt lonely was to be with my friends and family as much as possible. Even just going out somewhere busy that had lots of people I didn't even know made me feel somewhat connected and grounded. Everything will work out for you, hang in there bud.. we're all rooting for you in the comment section
Hands down the BEST. THE GOAT of songwriting, singing and entertaining
Always come back to Chris Cornell songs when I enjoy loneliness... doesn't matter any day,week,month,year whatsoever.....His voice soothes my mind , touching somewhere inside soul with the unleashed feelings...and the unplugged version of song is always an icing on the cake :) Love and respect to my favorite rock singer. #always live on hearts #rip
Chris was awsome in all those bands and in solo. Both bands were 2 of my favourites bands of all time. They had great names (and it's rare) with significant and simple meaning (thanks to Chris) and amazing songs that sounded like no one else. I would love your input on the first video of my first album. It got the attention of one of my heroes Joe Bouchard (ex bass player founding members of BÖC) but returns from people who likes same music is always the best. If you have just 3 minutes to listen and a bit more to comment, that would mean the world to me : ua-cam.com/video/Pu_p1wbaCa8/v-deo.html

pat menard welp
Welp face
pat menard That comment hits hard
When I’m alone and in my feels and sad, Chris Cornell is the only one who gives me peace, contentment and hope. I will miss you forever my brother, gone too soon :(
Top ten of all time material. Songwriting like we'll never see again.
Is this video the greatest rock vocal performance of all time?!? 🤯
Seriously!!!!!!
I have watched this a hundred times.
It is truly great.
You can say that about a dozen of Chris Cornell's performances. He was the greatest
People often speak of Cornell's vocal abilities and rightly so. However, this sometimes overshadows his immense, endless talent of individual expression -specifically lyrically. This song is truly an artful, an art form in & of itself!
This song just hits my soul at times it makes me cry. His voice is absolutely phenomenal and I'm in awe with him. RIP 🙏 thank you for blessing us with your presence and voice.
one the greatest songs ever written
@@mikeseaquest9246 Yes I agree
Totally agree with you. This song is a masterpiece and Chris Cornell is the best I've ever heard
What a once in a lifetime talent he was. "No one sings like you anymore"
This could be in another language and you’d still feel this song.
kenny holdren absolutely!
Always loved this song and today was the first day I read all the lyrics. But I never felt I needed to. You could just feel the song, the raw emotion behind it. To be honest, I don't think I've ever "felt" a song quite like this one before.
Not everyone who listens to chris understands english.. Im pretty sure most ppl dont, actually.
another song that has a similar effect, being in another language is Vor I Vaglaskogi by Kaleo.
I first heard Audioslave when i was a kid playing "Flat out 2". I didn't know english then, but i still loved the songs. Chris is still my favorite artist
During these moments, Chris was the most talented person alive.
He still is to this day
With Chester Bennington, miss both of them
Such a perfect voice. I struggle to sing this as naturally as Chris does, but it's simply not repetitable. A true masterpiece. Rest in peace Chris, you did so much good for this world.
I'm sure you will be one of those angels that'll great me in heaven. See ya!
I use this song to put my 3 year old daughter down for a nap, it works every damn time! 🙌🏼 Chris’ voice is beautiful man….
Been using it for 4 years now with my 2 girls. Chris Cornell and Aaron Lewis acoustic = bedtime!
@@MikeBlank216 yes 2 great choices
I fell genuinely sorry for the future generations who never got to witness this pure unparalleled talent RIP Chris Cornell
