Chris Cornell, one of the best vocalist and song writer of our time! RIP
Chris Cornell, the lead singer, is the guy that covered "nothing compares to you" that you really liked a few weeks ago
Did I see his version? I totally don’t remember that.
@@DianeJenningsif not, you should check it out.
This song takes me back to my late teens. Was fortunate enough to see Soundgarden a couple of times back in the day. Audioslave is another band you have to hear.
Chris was the BEST!!!! A hell of a song writer and vocalist! He was in Temple of the Dog, Soundgarden, Audioslave and his solo work. Such a deep line of work!
It is pretty crazy how such an amazing voice belonged to such a gorgeous man
It really is!
RIP Chris Cornell.
Great choice Diane. This song really defined a time and place in the 90's.
Chris Cornell’s good friend was Eddie Vedder who is the singer for Pearl Jam. They sang a hit song together called ‘Hunger Strike’. Please react to that music video. Thanks.
Oh sounds cool!
they formed a supergroup called 'temple of the dog'.
@@DianeJennings the name of this group while they were together was Temple of the Dog. it was kind of a mix between Pearl Jam & Soundgarden
Temple of the Dog-fabulous album. Rougher and roudier-Mother Love Bone. Both are awesome
@@SSGreyAndi Chloe-Dancer Crown of Thorns. One of the best damn songs EVER.
This song coming out was a definitive moment in my preadolescent musical development and a lot of grunge elements from Soundgarden (and Alice in Chains) have rooted themselves firmly in my own songwriting. Also, RIP Chris Cornell... A once in a generation talent gone too soon...
I had only heard his name in relation to the very sad passing of his friend, Chester Bennington, but I can see him for myself now. Both so talented! Gone far too soon.
he had such a beautiful voice. RIP Chris
Chris Cornell was also the lead singer of the band Audioslave (another band you should check out) and sang the theme song for casino royale x
R.I.P Chris Cornell, one of the most talented vocalists of all time. Thank you for the reaction. 🙏
One of the best hard rock singers of all time. R.I.P.
Chris Cornell's voice is a gift to humanity. He was also the lead singer in Audioslave (that Rage Against the Machine band you mentioned), and their song Like A Stone is one of my favorites of all time, if you feel like reacting to that at some point 😁
Soundgarden has the jams for sure. 90s rock has lots of good songs. I have listened to them a lot on the radio, on mtv, and youtube. Rediscovering songs I haven't listen to in awhile is enjoyable plus Your reactions to the song on the music journey make it a billion times better. Thanks for make the start of the weekend Happy and Joyful.
😊
@@DianeJennings 😊
@@DianeJennings Rage Against the Machine is excellent. I'd recommend "Testify" or "Renegades of Funk" if you're able to see them with the official video (it adds a lot to the meaning they're going for) and if you can't get an official video through CZcams a lot of people begin with "Bulls on Parade," which was their first big single that came out a year or two before Blackhole Sun.
Did You know? Chris Cornell(Soundgarden Singer) and Eddie Vedder(Pearl Jam Singer) were in a band Called Temple of the Dog. Try Listening to their song Temple of the Dog Hunger Strike. It's a real good song.
I'm going to have this song stuck in my head for the rest of the day.
Eyy, you say that like it’s a bad thing! :P
This was one of those times where I thought I didn't know the band and song, then the music starts and I realize I do know it!
Having struggled with depression and suicidal ideation, prayer has always worked for me!
Whatever works for you Brian…. Sure it’s probably better than heroin from a safety perspective 😆
@@DianeJennings Out of the 4 biggest Grunge bands, only the Front Man of Pearl Jam is still alive.
And the 3 others all ended them self. Sound Garden, Nirvana, Alice In Chains.
Soundgarden was totally organic. Great band with an interesting history and a ton of influence on better known artists from that era.
ANYTHING but a manufactured "boy band"... SMH.
There does seem to be an unfortunate trend in your musical journey. A lot of lead singers that died way too young. Most of the bands I listened to in high school are gone now because of that very reason.
Right? It’s kind of crazy how many successful artists went out that way
There's a thing called the 27 year curse or the 27 Club - just an INSANE list of musicians that went out at 27 (Kurt Cobain, Jim Morrison, Janis Joplin, Jimi Hendrix, Amy Winehouse, etc etc etc etc etc).
Chris Cornell just about doubled it, so....that's at least something?
Ironically, a lot of the 80s bands I grew up with are still on tour. lol
Remember sublime?
@@Catherine.Dorian.Too bouncy. Insufficiently dark. AIC were my guys, back then.
I seem to remember reading that Chris Cornell wanted an apocalypse video, appropriate for the lyrics, but he really wanted a HAPPY apocalypse! So they used early 90's CG effects - which were just becoming a thing - to create the exaggerated creepy happy faces.
Cornell's other band was Audioslave, legends in their own right. "Like A Stone" is their most popular song, I highly recommend doing a reaction to it!
R.I.P Chris Cornell.. one of the greatest voices of all time . Every song on this album is equally as great as this one . One of my favorite bands I’ve seen live twice .
Having lived in Seattle for more than 40 yrs now, I hang my head in shame that I never saw any of the big Seattle bands when they were up and comers.
I only saw Soundgarden perform 3 songs before an American football game. Another Seattle biggie was Alice in Chains...I saw them play 3 songs at halftime of a football game.
I was fortunate enough to see Chris do a full set about 6 months before he passed. I saw him perform with Temple of the Dog.
RIP, Chris. No one sings like you anymore. ❤❤
Nice one, I used to listen to this song a lot. "Slaves And Bulldozers" is another one I loved.
This is also another one in the books you made me watch the music video of for the first time ever. Thanks for that, nothing like a little bit of edumacation!
Have a great weekend, Diane. :)
I’m so glad to hear you enjoyed it😊
Fun fact: Chris Cornell was a mentor to the lead singer of The Pretty Reckless Taylor Momsen who played Cindy Lou Who in the Grinch.
"Outshined," "spoonman," and "fell on black days." - SoundGarden
Solo Chris "sun shower" off the movie soundtrack "great expectations" that starred Gwyneth Paltrow and Ethan Hawk (1998)
Another great musical reaction from Diane. Thanks Diane! I think your audience would enjoy the AudioSlave videos for "Cochise" or "Show me how to live" (my personal favorite) or "Like a Stone". I hope you get a chance to view them.
Wow, quintessential 90’s alternative. I’ve heard this song at least hundreds of times as a late gen X
That's one of my favorite songs. It's a alternative rock band from the 90's!
Your facial expressions during the video were hysterical. 😂
Diane has always had some of the most amazing facial expressions, and we are blessed that she shares them with us 🙇♀️
Oh, thank you! There were a good few faces I could’ve used for the Thumbnail. But my funny faces don’t get good clicks 😆
I believe they named themselves after a park in the Bellevue/Kirkland area where wind makes sounds in art(statues) in the garden.
Yup!
Not Kirkland/Bellevue. It's at Discovery Park on the west side of Magnolia Bluff, the former Ft. Lawton.
Speaking of Canada, check out Rush. I forgot how much I liked this song. Thanks for the music and your reaction. Can't wait to hear about your Chicago trip. Have a great weekend!
I’ve been fighting with depression for decades, and it was so heartbreaking when I heard that Chris Cornell had died from suicide, because I was such a huge fan of his solo work and Soundgarden, too.
Also, I think someone else mentioned that some people from Soundgarden, and some people from Pearl Jam, formed a band called Temple of the Dog, and then put out an album, which I think you’d like.
Happy Friday Diane! I always look forward to your music reactions. You always manage to pick some really cool music to listen and react to. This band is by no means an exception! They have a great sound about them. Thank you for sharing your insights and reactions as always. Have a great weekend and enjoy your trip to Chicago! My Dad was from there! It was one of my favorite places to visit! Hope that you have the time of your life over there, dear. All the best to you always. Have fun and stay safe over there. Godspeed. 👋😎❤️🙏🎉
Thank you I’m looking forward to it
I learned all kinds of stuff with You today about the band that I did not know about the band. Thanks for teaching me something new about the band on the learning music journey.
Happy Friday!! I really love this video.Happy a great weekend.
Thank you! You too!
So happy you are coming to Chicago soon!
I’m very excited!
There was a movie that came out in 92 called "singles" that had all the Seattle bands on the soundtrack. Epic. Pearl jam, alice in chains, Soundgarden, jimi hendrix, heart, smashing pumpkins. They're from chicago, but they sound grunge.
Watching your expressions to the bizarre video was classic. If anyone just watched you without seeing the video at the same time they would be very confused. Thanks for sharing Diane.
Glad you enjoyed it! I’ve actually seen some random videos, reusing my reactions I’m putting them to other things… Which is very odd feeling
Song takes me back to my middle school years. I love it.
Kind of impossible to explain how cool this band was. Just look up the cover of this album, Superunknown. There are no words for that level of cool.
The acoustic version of Black Hole Sun is one of the most beautiful things I have ever heard. Just The singer, Chris Cornell (RIP), on acoustic.
One of the best songs ever written. We miss you Chris. 🤘
Since You sent me on a music journey of Soundgarden while looking at Chris Cornell songs list. I learned that Chris Cornell sang a cover of Prince written Sinead O'Connor song Nothing Compares to U. It's on CZcams.
soundgarden was a very dynamic group and I've enjoyed them very much, great choice to review.
Another grungy band out of the Seattle. Heard this song a zillion times. but I've never seen this music video before, and your reaction is just epic. Chris Cornell was a great musician, and is greatly missed. His other bands, Temple of the Dog and Audioslave were also great.
Hey all you Watchers, please hit the Like button, and be sure to Subscribe--it's Free. You will love Diane's content!
Thanks!! yes, the video is really quirky and shocking. But I actually liked it! Very creative.
This band will melt your face off of your face if you stick with them. Greatest singer to ever live...it's not even close. RIP chris cornell
You forgot "in your opinion"
Great vid. Soundgarden is one of my favorites from the 90s
Soundgarden is one of the best bands ever! RIP Chris
31 years later and i still have this song in my radio, truly a great song!❤
You styled the studio up real good with the lights. I like the Pink and Turquoise blue background colors. It looks good with Your CZcams award in red and white. Your good vibes neon is great Happy words for the universe. Also like the Irish Rainbow goes good with a pot of gold. Your are Very Talented at Stylin everything to look good.
Thanks for reacting to it Diane!
No problem 😊
I know they ruled his death a suicide but there was so much more behind it than him just hanging himself. Its a damn shame. I truly believe he was just getting started as a solo artist and that everything before was just the tip of the iceberg. RIP Chris ❤
When Diane watches the video for Black Hole Sun
Her facial expressions are second to none
She gives thoughtful opinion and facts that are fun
Another great reaction, so I say Well Done!
Chicago is my city!! I live in Nashville now but grew up in Chicago and hope you have an amazing time!!!
So cool! Thank you. I’m so excited as it’s one I’ve seen a lot on TV shows and movies.
Hey Diane this a good video and the last live stream was amazing.
Glad you enjoyed it! That’s really nice of you to say so
This is 1 of my favorite songs!!!!
Chris Cornell was in several bands, Soundgarden, Audioslave, and Temple of the Dog, to name a few of the best known bands. He was a very talented man.
this music video is a work of cinematic art, hands down the best example of the grunge era in terms of the song itself, but also the video.... a fuckin masterpiece
One of the greatest voices in music
The bands usually created by a company are usually pop bands. Rock bands have always been created in the Untied States organically. Usually it's two school mates that become friends and get other guys to form a band.
Really enjoyed this video. Have no expectations or experience with grunge, so this was very enjoyable. I agree that the video production values were very high for the times.
Glad you enjoyed it!
You should definitely check out the song Cochise by Audioslave for Cornell’s upper register vocal range and for the awesome fireworks that go off during the entire song
This song took me back to my early teens. Cornell had such a tragic life. The old saying is true "money can't buy happiness". You can have everything, and nothing all at once.
I totally agree! People who think otherwise are so naïve. Wish for happiness, never money.
Now that you've heard the song, seen the video, and know a few things about the band, please go watch Norah Jones' version which was performed less than a week after Chris died on the very stage they performed their last show together as a band. It may one of the greatest tributes to a friend I have ever heard.
My goodness this young woman is certainly quite extraordinary!!!
Audioslave songs to consider are Like A Stone, Show Me How to Live, Cochise. All are absolutely amazing as pretty much every thing Chris sang was gold
great song - trippy video! ♥
There was a park in the middle of downtown Seattle where there were chimes and an assortment of musical paraphernalia that was known as the Soundgarden.
Thanks Diane! This is perhaps the only song of theirs I know. Very trippy video, the stuff nightmares come from. It is sad to see so many musicians you have reacted to had ended their lives intentionally, unintentionally or somewhere in between. 😢
It feels like more than a coincidence? Like, tragedy and talent go, hand-in-hand, or some thing… So many of them.
Chris is the GOAT
Watched this on MTV so much growing up lol
Thanks for the video 👍🏻
Chris Cornell is hands down the most gorgeous man I’ve ever seen in my life. And that voice! ❤
Faith No More is a great band. Their second singer Mike Patton is outstanding. They're kind of alternative metal mixed in with some funk.
Noted!
well I hope you have a good weekend, not a big music person but I like hanging out with you and Chewie
Aww thank you
Today is Popcorn Day so Many Good Ways to make Popcorn. Butter is classic for the theatre experience. Caramel, Cheese, Chocolate on Popcorn are also good toppings.
🍿
@@DianeJennings 🍿Theatre butter is a all time fav that sells the most.
Soundgarden was a long-time Seattle hard rock band that became known for pioneering “Alternative/Grunge” music along with Pearl Jam and Nirvana, although most of them would consider themselves just to be hard rock bands.
Their lead guitarist and drummer recently recorded an album with the bassist from Nirvana and several different singers called “3rd Secret.”
Chris later formed Audioslave with the musicians from Rage Against the Machine. He also sang the song “You know My Name” for the James Bond movie “Casino Royale.”
6:24 Diane’s expression here🤣 I forgot how grim this song was
The whole grunge era of the nineties was one grim song after another. And millions of kids bought into it. So sad.
@@michaelbirke6050 if you listen to the kids themselves, Grunge gave voice to what they were already feeling, not the other way around. They couldn't find a place in the synth heavy pop music of the 80s. Grunge is essentially a revival of 70's metal with lyrics that (while frequently insensible because of how metaphorical, poetic, or personal they are) moved away from the love songs that they couldn't relate to, towards the start of the social justice movements that are still here today.
@@Bramble451 Thank you for your thoughtful and introspective comment. I do feel sad for the nineties generation. Question is why that generation was feeling abandonment, loneliness and depression and did the recording industry genuinely care or just feed it by perpetuating it by a rare and unexpected commercial success of Nirvana’s “Nevermind”. Please don’t try to convince me that the underlying motivation was quote “social injustice and change”. Name me one thing Rage Against The Machine changed except their bank account. It was all about aesthetics. Tom Morrello storming back and forth sure looked angry. Even the most successful band to come out of the nineties, Pearl Jam, talked the talk but in the end did they change any mindsets? Eddie Vetter just became friends with Bruce Springsteen. Greed and money always rears its ugly head. Bookend the grunge era with Linken Park. One doesn’t even have to close one’s eyes to see the darkness. Tragically Curt Cobain, Chester Bennington and the singer whose band and video started this conversation Chris Cornell all took their own lives. That is not by coincidence. There is a reason that many comments on CZcams from people lament that they never had a chance to experience the music of the sixties and early seventies. You want to know why? It’s what is sadly missing in grunge. Creativity. Nirvana set the tone and provided the blueprint which countless bands followed to the delight of the record companies. Consequently that’s what that generation was fed. That’s where my original use of the word sad comes from. No I didn’t grow up in the nineties but I did listen to alternative/grunge/metal on the radio and very rarely heard anything hopeful, encouraging or positive. I’m putting this all in context after listening to sixty years of music. I don’t disagree with your comment, I just hope you can see from my perspective. It’s even more ironic that the comment section of Diane’s video starts out with comments about suicide and prevention. Honestly, this is the first time I’ve ever seen this.I sincerely hope that she limits her first listens from this era. Talk about karma. I’m looking up at the top of my screen and she’s first listening to Alice In Chains “Down in a Hole”. Why did Layne Staley’s name come to mind? See, I’m getting caught up in it. Sorry. Will try to end this on a positive note. Stay safe and well.🎸✌️☮️😊
I agree with you with the philosophy on when life gets very difficult; its a good outlook.
You agree that people should do heroin and rack up a ton of debt if they’re depressed? Heh. Stupidest thing I’ve heard in a long time.
The name "Soundgarden" refers to a public sculpture here in Seattle (Soundgarden's home town) at Sand Point which is made of dangling things that make a musical sound when the wind blows. Actually, "Black Hole Sun" is also a sculpture in Seattle in Volunteer Park.
Cornell was one of the breakout front an and singers of the area that I now live in, the PNW, Seattle was the scene he was in part born in. I still remember the night the news came across that he died(by his own hand as it was later reported). I still remember him just showing up on the local talk show The Men's Room. Not because he was promoting a new album, or an ongoing tour, or really anything else. He literally was just in the area and wanted to sit down and "talk to the guys". Guys that he got to know over the years and wanted to spend time with. That was like a month before his dose was publicised and all of Seattle went through a "Black Day" (I was there that night. Somber puts it lightly to say the least). I still remember trying to verify that he actually died, then how he died, then processing it, because it pissed he off, given I at an early age also tried to off myself and knew what that process was (for me at least) like. The article that I, in fairness, hastily wrote, is still out there explaining most of this; I just don't know if it's appropriate to post it here even if I can. Short story being, it never had to happen. He said himself, ON STAGE, "I feel sorry for the next show", and NO ONE PICKED UP ON THAT. Pretty sure at 10 I had less signs than that, and had my younger brother hadn't Runa cross me I might not be here to say as much.
I apologize. Didn't mean to get into a rant. It s a good song, one I've performed quite a few times. Never actually saw the music video though, that was... interesting to say the least. Glad you enjoyed it.
Thanks for content
It's good to hear you are coming to visit us here in Chicago. Make sure to stop and have a meal at Ed Debevic's for some real Chicago hospitality.
I recommend checking out alot of their music. They are my favorite.
i was about ten when this song came out. the video blew my mind back then.
There is a sculpture called Black Hole Sun at the Asian art museum and an art installation called The Sound Garden at the NOAA station that plays music with the wind in Seattle and the band is from there, so I'm guessing that is where the names come from.
I remember recording this video off of MTV back then. Got to love that 90's era CGI.
This was one of my favorite bands. I'm sad that for some reason I didn't get notified about this post! Just happened upon it.
Chris Cornell on lead vocals Kym Thayle on lead guitar Matt Cameron on drums and as you see they had a couple bassists.
I saw Soundgarden perform in 1996 at Lollapalooza in Vermont. Also saw Ramones and Metallica that day.
Chris did Black Hole Sun by himself, which was nice as it was constantly on the radio and MTV at that time.
I miss Chris’ singing. He is the true voice of my generation, GenX
Definitely not just a product of a corporate think-tank. Soundgarden was the first grunge band to sign a major record deal though. They would have been the face of grunge if their early stuff wasn't so incredibly heavy that it just couldn't possibly cross over into mainstream. Superunknown is still quite dark and brooding as well, but there's significantly more pop sensibility to it and songs like "Black Hole Sun" coupled with multiple issues surrounding other grunge bands at the time propelled them into the spotlight as the biggest name of the genre left standing in '94. As noted in the quote you read, Cornell wasn't particularly happy with that however and saw the superficial nature of it all for what it really was.
My favorite Soundgarden song! I grew up in the 80s with MTV so we were used to crazy videos, doesn't affect how I hear the music, but for some it can distract from the incredible music & vocals. Amazing song.
Honestly, it's videos like this one that made me just not watch videos for 90s bands. I (personally) am one of those people you mention who finds them just so goofy that they take away from the amazing music. This video is so typically 90s! The only videos that I really like from that era are Tool's weird ones by Adam, but I avoid them as well at first, because they're just so distracting! Adam's little art projects with no obvious connection to the songs!
@@Bramble451 That's fair.
Great song, peak 90s.
love the sound garden in seattle
Great video.
Saw Chewie pop up in the video for a few seconds. Give Him some treats, teddy's, cuddles, walks, and good naps to make his weekend joyful.
Together with "Black" from Pearl Jam this song is my favorite. I avoid this song when I am depressed, but when I am fine I can shed tears without killing myself. It is so beautiful.
