He seemed to never age. He aged incredibly well. It's just so surreal he's already gone.
It’s still, even now, hard to process he’s now with us anymore.
I don't think Chris had an idea of how much he was LOVED! He'll be forever missed! R.I.P Chris Cornell. 😢
lucaspenido i think he did know he just didnt think it ment that much..the love the fame the money the status even the (music) family.I think if your in such a bad place in your mind that youd commit suicide your really lucky if you can come out of those thoughts alive..he was 1 of the unlucky ones.Unfortunately..i will allways miss him and will forever think its a shame i didnt see him play live.Such a beautiful soul so sad it ended like this..till dust one returns but with him it just seems so intensly sad that he hanged himself after seeing him act it out in so many of his videos.The singing about death and dark places with in.I do believe he was a troubled man with many demons..he just couldnt take it anymore😔 So sad
lucaspenido
An Amen to that
Cornell knew he was loved, how could he not? Has it ever occurred to you that it is impossible to hang yourself from a hotel room doorknob?
The End, that's very accurate, I agree with what you are saying, and you know... I think not everyone are able to understand what a "bad place in your mind" is, it's very personal, sometimes not even your family (if you have one) can understand for what you're going through. With the "bad place in your mind" comes isolation, not a visible isolation, but the isolation of the "bad place in your mind" from others, is hard that somebody can trully know what's going on inside of your mind, sometimes not even yourself understand what's going on. Another thing to point out is: the smarter you are, the easier you reach facts. From my point of view, Chris was a very smart person, just look how he express himself, how he talks. If you look at the world, with the exception of the several places, several countries that are just doing alright, everything is fucked up. I'm from Argentina, and here we breath suffering. Economy isn't going well since a long while, and poverty is raising, you can see many people looking for food into the garbage, and you know what... that touches me, very deep. Sum up all the problems around you to your inner problems. Some people can't just be free of inner and collective suffering. I think that Chris was one of those, a great, amazing soul, such as Cobain, Staley and Chester where. I think that some persons are just very sensitive for this world. If you are sensitive, smart, then you will see what is really going on around you, you won't be blind, and most of the things that you will be able to see are very sad. Some people are able to deal with it, some people are not. Chris dealt with it for a long while, but was too much holding on at the end. A very beautiful person that gave all that he could have ever offered to us.
carte blanche, I totally agree. The fact of the matter is, he faked his death, but there was a body double. That's the sad part, someone had to die.
He looked so good here, super sober and lucid.
RIP Chris.
I’m not gay, but that is the most attractive man I have ever seen. He is what I imagine Jesus would look like.
Correction, I am very gay.
I imagine Jesus looking like him, too.
Not gay also, but i have kind of a man crush on CC.
Jesus looked like a nowaday's palestinian
AtrolinK he definitely could have, I’ve never seen him.
He is the father of jesus
He is so terribly missed already.
Janice McDonald I couldn't agree more!
andrew johnson It's unbelievably sad.
it truly is in all ways.
andrew johnson 3 Day weekend here, I have one more day to wrap my head around it and then I go back to work where absolutely nobody has any idea who he is or was.
Janice McDonald I know. It's hard to believe. I find myself keep reading his articles and watching his interviews and listening to my favs songs about him. it hasn't faded at all
My heart is so broken......Oh Chris. The music world is going to have a gaping hole in it now. I miss him so much already. Such a powerful voice and humble spirit. Rock in Peace Chris.
@Genile Bankai Elric: I had a spirit connection with Christopher , so of course I was in shock! In my humble opinion I fully believe he is in a good place where no pain, no tears, no sorrow, only LIGHT. Also imho Christopher's spirit is still here , one thing for sure , Chris is singing and strumming his guitar like an angel 😇🎶😇🕊️🕊️💓💯🥀
I love being able to sing like him. he has such an amazing tone. I have a video on my channel where i perform PROMISE that he wrote with SLASH. where did he come up with those screams? Speaking of SCREAM... i can never get that chorus out of my head. Such a loss that i will never understand.
It’s never been the same since he , Kurt Cobain,Chester B. , and Layne Stanley all passed.. Just imagine if they were all still here and never left? Many more amazing hits that’s it.. Music that hits you like a ton of breaks that gets into your very soul. My mother was n love with ChrisC… She had a life size poster of him on her wall up until she died. I remember she was devastated when she found out he had died.. She died not to long after him. I always say to her looking up to heaven. I hope you got to meet Chris finally mom.. I know he better run when he sees you cause you will never leave him alone hahaha. R.I.P. Mom, Chris, Layne, Chester, and Taylor Hawkins…
He had such a nice face. Those eyes, wow. His voice was amazing. Grunge Royalty.
Jo Gonzalez The Brad Pitt of Grunge.
Courtny E. What a misguided attempt at a complimentary comparison. Chris wasn't the Brad Pitt of anything. He was a legendary songwriter and artist in his own right.
The were very good friends. I believe they got to perform together with Sting... I saw a video about that. Haven't watched entirely.
Take it easy, pretty sure we all know what she meant by that
SolidRoot I do know. ❤
He was beautiful, outside but also inside, He seemed so sensitive.
Divorce on kids is more toxic than you know. How little Chris suffered thru...
Big 4 of grunge*. Don't forget Alice in Chains. A fucking sin they weren't on the list.
DeathPenguin1000 Agreed, not to take away from anyone in this "big 3" list but AIC was one of the best bands ever created. To not mention Layne Stanley and AIC is kind of an insult to music in general!
Whether they are metal or not is up for debate, but what's not up for debate is that they were awesome
DeathPenguin1000 i was gonna totally say this too!! layne staley was a way better singer then eddy vedder. That's crazy they completely left them out. this host is whack! R.I.P. CHRIS CORNELL!
There's no "holy trinity" of Seattle. There's the big 4, the main 4, or just the 4. If it's not abundantly and obviously apparent...Alice in Chains, Soundgarden, Pearl Jam and Nirvana. Doesn't matter if you call 'em grunge, metal or whatever, they all had a lot of integrity and in your face.
stone temple pilots
Everything about you is so beautiful Chris. May you rest in peace, beautiful, beautiful soul. And as Jeff Buckley once said, "I believe there's none, really no end". No end to love, no end to beauty, no end to music. Thank you for your wonderful gift, for your compassionate personality and just for having made this world a very special - and better! - place by being in it. You will never ever be forgotten. We will always love you.
Beautifully Said. Justice for Chris Cornell
#loudlove
How can a beautiful and intelligent guy like this end it all? I don’t get it! What a waste of life! I’m beginning to think maybe the conspiracy theories are right and he was killed. Or it was the Anti depressants he took! I’m not sure anymore!
Angela Davis
Do you think he was killed? Because of the anti child exploitation work he was doing? Someone didn’t like that?
Or was it a bad side effect reaction to the Anti Depressants he was taking.
In Detroit, he called his wife and was slurring his words when he told her he took one too many pills. I’m shocked that those pills are that dangerous to provoke a suicidal reaction! If that’s the case. I’m not certain of anything.
But I am not happy that he’s gone just like I was not happy when Kurt died.
I was seriously depressed for a year after that it hit me so hard!
RIP Chris and Kurt!
And he will always come back. Chris said it himself. He might shift stage left and exit flying on a plane after buying an extra seat for Vicky's big ass bag. Awe, love ya Chris
Very good looking man, incredible vocalist. We miss him.
One of the nicest people I have ever had the pleasure of meeting, RIP Chris , thank you for your music and giving it to us
5:25 is the best part of this video. Honestly I don't think I've ever seen him laugh. He was already a gorgeous man but that smile and laugh was beautiful. He is missed by so many and will never ever be forgotten.
He was 43 at the time of this interview if my calculations are correct... he looks & sounds great! What a LEGEND!!!
Incorrect I think . He's 45 . Looks amazing for his age .
He was so so so authentic and kind and I am still in shock. Why do all the good people want to die and the assholes keep living :( I miss you Chris! :'( I felt so inspired by him and this is the only celebrity death I have ever mourned. I feel I was exactly like him in many ways and since he died a part of me has died.
He didn't want to die MORON. In fact he fought like hell while he was being strangled by Martin who was hired by his skanky wife so she could get paid! Hence the 9 broken ribs. Don't be a dumbass. Read between the lines and one day you might figure it out.
@@jefesmamaI saw the details on the autopsy. So many things did not seem right and were telling. Many people do not want to believe, including me, that Chris was most likely strangled. I just don't get how people aren't seeing the correlation between all of the people who supposedly "suicided" themselves by hanging in the last couple of years. I mean Chester Bennington hung himself on Chris Birthday. Both of them might have known something about some bad people. Why hasn't his wife Vicki follow through with reopening the investigation by now. I can't say I don't believe in some conspiracy theories but this just screams foul play!
VK is a dirty bitch and she's been covering up the truth since the beginning. She has no interest in an investigation. she's been screaming suicide and relapse from the get go. She's the reason there never was an initial investigation. She didn't go to Detroit to claim his body! Who does that? Wouldn't you want to know what really went down if your spouse wound up dead hours after a show? Where is his phone and computer? Why were they never seized and searched? Why did Martin flee the country right after Chris' body was found? Why was the first call she made when she heard he was dead to an entertainment lawyer? Why was her first and only visit to Detroit with that lawyer?> MONEY! She's been fighting tooth and nail to collect insurance money since he died. Now she's suing his Doctor for prescribing the meds in the first place. WTF is that about? MONEY! Why is she trying to sell his personal guitars and other personal items online? MONEY. She's a con artist who has been convicted of many crimes all involving Money. Her and her Mother don't pay their b ills. It's all public records. Look it up. Chris was a cash cow for them. She was probably already pregnant when they got married. Toni is most likely not Chris' kid. He was leaving VK and wanted a paternity test of Toniu. This info is not jard to find LLook it up
No shit. I don't agree. I love Chris Cornell. One of my favorite singers. Him and I have a lot in common. I suffer from one of the worst depression. Bipolar. I try to stay clean and sober but the between all the crazy medications the psych doctor prescribes me and having really extremely bad times once in a while ya just cant help it
He has two beautiful daughters as I do. He's a successful artist. I'm a middle class man but at least I'm handsome. Why do the nice looking people have to have mental issue problems? The one thing I dont understand was at least he had money. Freakin millions. I barely make a living. These a part of my sever depression. But I live with back and forth suicidal thoughts a lot. I wish I could of talked to him after that show before he went to his hotel room. I bet he'd be alive today and then my good buddy. Cause I suffer with drug Addiction but I'd tell him look at all the good you do and all the awesome money you make mand the 2 beautiful daughters. I tell him before you do your suicide hang a rope for me two. Cause at least you have the money and tons of friends to lean on and talk to. I have no money really but that really isn't a reason to leave us. You will always have a place in my heart Chris. One day I'm gonna need your spirit to talk me out of suicide. No joke, I'm serious as a heartache bro. Room by room patiently I wait
Ah Donnie, you have serious issues not involving bipolar disorder. You very clearly don't know how to read or you would have connected the dots on Chris' MURDER. Yes murder! He was killed by the bodyguard. He did not and would not kill himself. And why you are trying to compare yourself to Chris in your very long statement is beyond me. "at least I'm handsome". Did you really say that? Who gives a flying fuck what you look like and to make a statement that " nice looking people have mental issues" is fucking ignorant. You also seem to think that having a lot of money is the solution to all life's problems. Wake up. It's funny that you think that if he did kill himself if he just would have talked to you before he hung himself, he wouldn't have done it and that you guys would would be buddies. You are delusional and sound really stupid.
This man was a bad ass! i loved his music no matter what band he was on
"Like, he's not an Axl Rose" lol... yes Chris, you were totally down-to-earth, even with this voice, talent and beauty. A huge gift to anyone and everyone. RIP.
Outshined got me thru many many bad places. May the Lord bless you Chris
yes, the whole album was killer. Same with superunknown. RIP Chris!
Man what about STP DAMN THEY WHERE AS GOOD AS ANY OF THOSE Cats
Agreed
I graduated high school in 1994 so yeah he helped me get through alot of dark times....
If i had to choose, outshined would be my favorite.
I will never forget the day and moment I laid eyes on him. It’s was 1990. His sheer physical presence was startling. It would stop one in its tracks literally. His talent even superseded that. He’s a legend. It was amazing to watch him from start to finish in that journey
He seems like such a down to earth kinda guy. I've never seen someone of his talent interviewed with such an honest , humble tone. Nothing like most rock stars. What a shame to lose someone like Chris.
I wish everybody would listen to his music because his voice is the most beautiful and magneficient sound I've ever heard and it could possibly heal the anger occuring in some people and even make this world a better place, that's how powerful and soulful it is.
He was so handsome. And that voice
Crushing loss in music...seriously.
Everything about that man was FINE! That voice ❤ Those eyes ❤ That beautiful beautiful smile ❤❤
Gorgeous, insightful, down to earth , took zero shit, amazingly talented.
Wow, i just love how he Kim, Matt and Ben were just "real" no pretence and when confronted with it they called it out.
I love how they always stayed true to what they beleived. Pretty much all the Seatlle guys where like that. So cool how alot of them were all friends and played in each others bands and supported each other .
I mean I cant think of another rising scene that was so supportive like an honest to God team as Seatlle was.
So humble and kind, you are such a talent of your own and the man of a thousand stars. You are truly missed 😢
Chris Cornell Is My Favorite❤️. His voice is Amazing!! He is a Amazing Song writer! He’s GORGEOUS 😍. “The Best Rocker of ALL Time”. R.I.P. Chris Cornell
A true divine spirit. You can tell he felt things so deeply, and empathized. That is why he created such timeless music. We love you Chris, glad you are home now 💙
Omg how is this beautiful talented creature gone? 💔
Ladonna Brock creature what the fuck he was a human have respect for my husband
Deanna McDaniel da fuck u talkin bout?
@@deannamcdaniel2941 well he was my boyfriend!😘💋🖤
Someone should ask his greedy wife V.K.
Such a pretty boy with a mountain of talent, wish you were still here Chris
he sounds a lot different than when hes singing, im sure a lot of them do. He will be missed
I think he was murdered because he knew too much about what really goes on in Hollywood.
What a good looking guy with an amazing voice!!! Missing you so much Chris
What a beautiful man :( I still can't believe he's gone
I cant get enough of Chris...
euphoria morning was a very important album to me. i will miss you mr cornell
I could sit and watch and listen to him talk all day....I just adore him as a person....just shines right out of his soul....
His voice was and still is so special. 'Fell on Black Days' still gives me shivers every time. Something so genuinely deep and dark about it. Almost supernatural. He was awesome man. Really miss him :( RIP
I saw Soundgarden a few months or so before Chris's death. It was at the Bridgeschool concert in Mt. View California. Of all the great performances theirs was the only set I recorded. I'm so glad I did! His voice was so great live. A true gift! RIP Chris! Heartfelt sympathies to his wife and children. Thank you for sharing him with the world.❤️❤️❤️
I saw Chris in Indianapolis with my (then) 11 year-old son, roughly 10 days before he died. Taylor Momsen wrote about this show and her conversation with Chris. He would play KC and Detroit after that, and no more. I compared what I captured of “Slaves and Bulldozers” at the end of the concert to what was captured in Detroit, and you could just tell that something wasn’t right with Chris. My son had been a fan, jamming to Soundgarden and Audioslave since he was in a car seat. I’m grateful that I was able to take him, and I’m continuing to take him to see the great artists. Next month: Iron Maiden, because why the fuck not.
Aside from being the greatest rock voice of my generation (maybe ever), I respect the balls it took to take a leap of faith and make that album with Timbaland. Chris really went out on a limb on that album and I was disappointed by how little Timbaland compromised in order to fuse both of their sounds. It ended up sounding like an incredible singer-for-hire on Timbaland tracks. He didn't even change up his drum hit samples.
However, even the attempt inspired me to do similar things and fuse genres. RIP Chris, thank you for everything you gave to us music fans.
Hurts to look and hear Chris now. So devastated. He was a regular guest to Vancouver since 1987 with Soundgarden (14 x) his solo career (8 x) & Audioslave (1 x). And yes i did keep track.
I love U Chris....legend . best singer ever...no one sings like u anymore! Love u😥💔💙
"Scream" is a Masterpiece. I don't care what anyone says.
Holy shit... You're actually the first person I've come across who's heard the album and liked it. Haha, man the explaining and defending I've had to do over they years.
Admittedly, I think my large fondness for the album is due to not thinking of music in a "this or that" context, so when Chris Cornell comes out with a Timbaland produced album, I rather like both artists, so it's something I get excited about.
Also, I used to listen to it a LOT when I was going to university and walking between classes, so hearing the album now kind of swoops me back there.
Amazing album mate
I think what it is, its chris cornell, u bring ppl with that level to that genre, whatever.... of course u can't help but go hmm
He was an artist. He is going to commit and give 110 percent
What a beautiful man, I’m so sad he was so torn with life. Grateful for the gifts he left us. I hate Chester followed him to heaven, but.....I can sympathize with the pain he felt in losing his best friend. His music will live on
You forgot Layne Staley in your list of frontman. Not a trinity but a quartet.
Damn Straight
It’s hard to put layne on that list without jerry Cantrell. I think that might be the difference. Best harmonies for sure
No way - it is definitely not hard to put Layne on that list without Jerry. Ask Jerry...my God...Layne's a solo act in his own right, and his voice is so amazing, that he could have almost anyone harmonize with him, but you couldn't do that deal the other way around, as we are seeing now with the new AIC music. Layne was the front man of Alice in Chains. Unequivocally. But I am utterly sick of these douchey journalists skipping one of the biggest and best all time rock bands. @@AGGIOSOUND
Yes sir
EXACTLY!!!
I've been a fan of Mr. Cornell since I was 13, and I was so sad when he passed. I started listening to TOD today for the first time in years, and I didn't realize until today that I've never actually seen an interview with him or heard him speak. Now that I have, I'm heartbroken all over again. He and Soundgarden changed my life immeasurably. He was a beautiful human being.
thank you for posting this. what soulful eyes.
He looks angelic.....truly
Chris Cornell was such a great singer songwriter and musician. May he rest in peace. This is a great interview.
He's just so beautiful and humble,love his laugh too, rest in peace Chris
OMG he is ONE GORGEOUS MAN and OF COURSE, EXTREMELY TALENTED!!!
Love this interview.. The fact that he said his music came out of dark times.. But that he feels he overcame alot of it.. Rest in Peace Chris Cornell ✌💕 your music and voice is timeless!! Much Love!!
He is so handsome goodness! We miss you!
Chris was beautiful and sexy He probably didn’t believe that. And he was a multi-millionaire so once again MONEY doesn’t make you happy. Thought he was handsome? Dude, he was gorgeous.
Yes ..Perfection
Bochanable, Your shallow over-emphasis on his physicality is dumb, and it's incomplete. He was great looking, wealthy, creative and creatively successful, he had a family, he had the freedom to do many things creatively and otherwise. He had everything. It doesn't make sense but there ya go. That's the confusing thing about his depression. But stop ogling over his looks and relating it to his depression. Dumb.
Please spare me your empty troll attacks and go Shelter in Love and Peace.
My theory is the rich, they can never find proper meaningful r ships, romantic but friends as well.... ..
And love and r shops are the key to life. Not money..
I always loved when Chris referenced Seattle. He is O.G. Seattle scene, one of the legacy-worthy pioneers of the genre known as Grunge. Thank you C.C.; music to resonate the feelings of so, so many people.
Damn it man .. So Talented.. Big heart..so Loved and Missed. He was the whole package.😪❤️
alice in chains pearl jam nirvana soundgarden. the big 4. cant believe the interviewer mentioned 3 of them.
I agree. this channel is so lame.
And Pixies, Kurt was a big fan of them and was inspired by Frank Black in many ways
Terribly sad he is not with us anymore, music was amazing... personality a sweet soul with lots of edge :) I believe this was a sad accident, prescription meds are dangerous. Wish someone had been with him. Sing with the Angels dear friend, will miss the music... to young
It wasn't meds lol
It is so so unbelievable that he's gone. I miss him a lot, and every time I listen to his music now I can't help but feel sad. He was so freaking talented. I wonder about his death too, I just think how is it even possible?! I just hope his soul can rest in peace, and am praying for his wife and kids. I can't even imagine what they're feeling right now...
I wish you were alive man, miss you brother..you live on through the music
His concert at massy hall in 09 was the best show I’ve ever witnessed. The best of his entire catalogue in one show. Simply amazing. My favourite songwriter.
Such an astoundingly personable guy.... a doowd you could have a beer with, shoot the shit and have a great laugh with.... a massive loss to the music industry, his fans and the world in general..... I've come to the music far too late but always appreciated his individualism.... A Gen X kid, just, who misses this guy more than can be imagined..... Haters be gone, lovers be patient, his like will come again.... Truly a prince amongst men!!!
The thing about depression is that you have to pull yourself up and out of it. It’s like trying to crawl out of a dark well with no rope. It doesn’t matter how many people love you or what they say, through no fault of their own, they just get stuck and can’t get out no matter how hard they try. It’s hard to explain or understand if you haven’t been through depression. It’s clear he was sad, and it kills me because I know he was stuck in that well and ultimately couldn’t get out. I know from personal experience and it breaks my heart
He’s so humbled!! I love when people are that real! RIP Chris C.
He is so missed. Heartbreaking. He was a beam of light. One of a kind.💖
I was loving the end of this interview so much because he’s so private and he was being open and talking about his life and then they go to commercial break. Seriously!!! I wanted him to keep talking, I love hearing his voice. What a kind, intelligent, intellectual, amazing & beautiful man he was.
RIP, King Chris Cornell- This video brings tears to my eyes- You look & sound so vibrant - always humble - Much love & appreciation for your life & talent. God bless your soul -may The Lord comfort your wife , children & family now & in the years to come. 💔
Gorgeous man!
"I came out of that bad place..." Loud Love, Chris.. Wish you could have stayed.
Im so happy to see this interview ...Over and Over and Over , especially now today. Chris is missed so much!
His eyes are just so entrancing. You'll forever be missed Chris
What a loss. They don't make them like him anymore.
agreed...100%...oh well Justin Bieber still around😂😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😩
please Lord take this fucker bieber and give us Chris Cornell back.
Indeed.
no one sings like him anymore
I've never seen Chris laugh that hard before 5:25. Great stuff
that was the best timed joke I have ever seen from an interviewer
2 years since you left us.. so sad to this day.. will always be a legend
You do not get anymore BEAUTIFUL than Mr. Cornell. You are missed everyday & your poetry has impacted & changed my life. I lived your pain wish you would of knew your beauty & gift you have been to me & others who have been to hell & back. Goodnight..NEVER goodbye my savior. We will meet again someday.
A rock god who was so very human. A man so divided within his self.
Still stings over a year later. R.I.P. Chris
What a great interview. Great questions and such open honest answers. The more interviews I watch of Chris, the more I feel like he was just a normal guy, no crazy ego or entitlement, just honest and humble. Beautiful.
i love u forever chris
Yes he is I miss the 90 's I miss him I will pray for his family
9:20 ..what an angel! he is forever missed! so sad.
Enjoyed watching. Thanks SO much for uploading!
Even the colour of his hair was wonderful! This man melts my heart! So sad his gone so soon! Love you Chris
Holy trinity? So this host completely left iit Alice in Chains. all these bands are gonna go down as the some of the best in the world. But to completely leave out AIC is pretty sad on this hosts part.
I bet you weren't there were you? Were you even born in the late 80's early 90's? You don't really understand the history or what George is talking about do you?
Truth!
As far as who got bigger faster definitly Kurt but vocally ands musically Layne absolutely destroys Kurt in every aspect. Nirvana just blew up really quick. So it depends on your criteria. To me my top 3 are Chris Alice and Scott. Scott isn't from seattle though so I'm not sure stp counts as royalty for grunge. All due respect to mother love bone and Eddie, I'm just not a big pearl Jam fan so for my personal taste stp is in the top 3.
Edit - I meant to say Chris Layne and Scott, don't know why I put Alice
It irritates the hell out of me every time
It happens way to often AIC very incredible band yes at the very least the Holy Quartet.
CHRIS CORNELL FOR EVER!!!!!
Chris was one in a million, there's just not enough words. He left us so much great music but he wasn't finished. R.I.P Chris 💔
Such an unbelievable loss. He was such a humble person.... I, love when he talks about his wife... I, can't imagine the heart break she feels... To be so in love and not be able to help someone who's right in front of you... It's heart breaking. This interview he seemed so alert... I can imagine the pain that can take hold of someone like him... He certainly is loved and missed by so many. His music and voice have made him a legend... RIP 💔
He was such an intelligent, talented artist. What the hell happened? His is a great loss. Rest In Peace Chris. 💔
He battled addiction for most of his life. At the end he was back on drugs and he had a manic episode...and he decided to end it, he cracked up. I pray that his kids make it out of this okay.
MURDER
He didn't "end it". Sadly I believe the same thing happened to both him and Chester Bennington, they were taken out due to they were both in the process of outting a CP ring. I believe they were going to make a documentary about it. It's so sad they wanted to help innocent children and expose these nasty ppl that have too much power.
It was made to appear like a "s**cid*".
I can't type out certain terms due to Yu Toobs terms.
But there's so much out there that confirms this now.
He was killed. You don’t get 9 broken ribs from CPR…His hideous wife told their babysitter the next morning that she was so sorry to hear of Chris’ passing.. and that troll said “Spare me the sympathy, we were getting a divorce anyway” The babysitter told the Los Angeles Times what his wife said..Plus his wife had him cremated 5 days before his funeral. Why???
So talented, what a voice, what a musical nature! What a short life! Oh, its so sad....
I sure hope he is rock in on the other side. You are so missed by all your fans .. Your fans at least have a lot of your hits and music to listen to you through future decades. Such a talented beautiful man. You're sorely missed Chris Cornell💋
Chris' personality is just one of kind, we love and miss you Chris, love how humble and articulate he is. *R.I.P Christopher John Cornell*
How do you skip talking about EUPHORIA MORNING!!?? It's a masterpiece
It’s one of fav albums of all time. When I‘m down... one of my top 5 songs of all time.. listening to it makes me feel understood.. when I‘m depressed
@@user-pi5zx7nv7g yeah, same
Just looking for the comments: "I'm not gay, but..."
First time I ever saw Chris Cornell was at a mall,on t.v. I was clothing shopping in a store and they had a huge screen playing one of his new video releases called "Cochise" from Audioslave and I just stood there watching and listening to him, and I could not stop looking at this beautiful man!!! I think I fell in love instantly!! I never saw him before, nor heard of him before either,then find out I liked songs from "Temple of the dog", "Soundgarden",and it was the same guy and I just didn't know it! I became a fan ever since. He was way too good and too advanced for us. I am glad he is in heaven now. I love you and admire you Chris Cornell.
What a fabulous video compilation and interview. Great host there. So in Lovvve with you Chris, your Music...Those songs! Sigh, so hauntingly beautiful. Helllo and xoxoxoxo to Heaven
RIP.... Still shocked and angry about his death. Watched some footage from his final performance in 2017 and it's nothing like, for comparison sake looking at drugged out Scott Weiland's last performance. Chris was completely coherent and giving a great performance in his last show. He had a family and had his shit together and was still having some success as an artist, I am suspect about his death and think there's more details than have been released.
rmzzz76 i still like to think he was murdered
rmzzz76: I feel the same way and also think it must be something we don't know about. I just don't think he would commit suicide and the whole Ativan thing doesn't make that much sense for me either..
What I mean is, I don't think that an extra dosis would made such an effect on him to do what he (supposedly) did. It's all pretty confusing and sad...
Yeah. This whole thing is suspect.
I know your post wasn't particularly directed to me but I'd like to say that in my comment I wasn't talking about a conspiracy or anything like that, just expressing my thoughts that it must be something we don't know about like how he was feeling at the time or taking..
Maybe I didn't express myself correctly (I'm not a native English speaker) and definitely wasn't being disrespectful, at least that wasn't the intention.
And I agree that all we can do now is celebrate his life, listening to his music or watching his interviews. In fact that was the whole point when I clicked to see this video.
Depression is chronic for some people. I suspect this was the case with Chris. So very sad. I hope he is at peace.
"Eddie Vedder has just become the Betty White of the Grunge era." :( :(
rebelyell1983x Courtney Love is the Betty White of grunge.
Courtny E. No she's the Betty White of grungy. Nasty skank needs a shower and a penicillin injection.
He wasn't even from Seattle (Eddie) He moved there to become part of the scene connected to Seattle.
@@LoveLjubav Exactly. After Andrew Wood Died. And Eddie Vedder Took The Band Members
Justice for Chris Cornell

God I miss your musical talent already. It's been 3 years since you have passed and I still go back and listen to your music when I'm feeling depressed or alone and it helps me. I get why you committed suicide but I'm sad your gone. May you rest in peace❤ making music up in heaven for sure 🥺❤
He was so fucking beautiful. Chris?
Chris Should Be Here 😢
I love him.
My fascination with both Soundgarden and Audioslave started about 6 years ago around when I first joined the Navy-granted, I was already 24, so I became Interested late in the game; perhaps the best discovery I’ve ever made. R.I.P., Chris.
Thank you for your service! Also, you've got great taste in music!
Robin Likens thank you! And I appreciate your support!
