#AliceInChains #GotMeWrong #Rock
Lyrics:
I haven't felt like this in so long
Wrong, in a sense too far gone from love
That don't last forever
Something's gotta turn out right
This is probably the best unplugged there will ever be in music history. This session from beginning to end is just immaculate. Beautiful and pure.
I agree, a true masterpiece
It is the best unplugged just very underrated
You're absolutely right, however, the Nirvana Unplugged show was fucking ridiculously awesome as well. They are close to a tie!
This one, nivanas, and korns, not sure if we'll get another legendary performance like these again!!!
yes!!!!
Laynes voice is so strong...and so soft at the same time...
he was pure art in it's rarest form
An angry angel
Off axis of the microphone. Dude knew how to use a microphone like no other
We’re all about the USA Today we will be our first day in a class of our world 🌎
Staley Cornell your a pop star ⭐️
“Sweetness doesn’t often touch my face” what a great lyric
I was just about to say the same thing.
Literally read this EXACTLY as Layne sang it lol
Damn, it truly is an amazing lyrical statement. It's so raw and honest. It reminds me of myself in a time of darkness, ill health, emotional and physical insecurity. A beautiful young man kissed me.
When I hear Jerry sing "Something's gotta turn out right" I believe him ♥️
Always
Totally!
❤
Absolutely!!! Ugh i always well up wit tears when i hear this song!
❤
That's my boy right there ladies and gentlemen, with the pink hair? The BEST singer in rock and roll history...... god rest his soul
💯💯💯
Him and Scott Weiland, over shadowed by Nirvana, pearl jam and Soundgarden. Layne and Scott were on a different level. Rock stars to the death bed.
I grew up listening to these guys. There was 5 top bands: Alice in Chains, nirvana, soundgarden, pearl jam and stone temple pilots. They were all amazing in their own right, creatively different and unique
Rip Layne Staley, God's chosen voice of the 90s
You gotta acknowledge all of them they are all perfect singers with unique voices, maybe Cobain wasn’t that good but just like the others, there isn’t anyone like him. My personal favourite is Eddie but I wouldn’t say he’s better
In my opinion one of the absolute best Unplugged sessions ever. A lot of people like Nirvana but give me Alice every time
No doubt! 🎯
Both Alice in Chains and Nirvana's unplugged performances were amazing. Tied for the best. All others were a distant second.
AIC kills it, no doubt.
💯💯💯🤘🏼facts
AiC showed its quality to play country/acoustic music since the very beginning. There's a whole universe of difference between them and any other band of the 90's when it comes to unplugged, maybe except for STP. Those guys were something elese too.
Layne Staley passes off the melody to Cantrell in about one second flat and harmonizes precisely, in a completely different octave like it's *nothing.* I love to sing along with this band as much as the next 90's kid but I've tried it and...that's...just...insane. Genius. RIP.
your a musician Huh? Me too although am not professional. Don't think ever will be either. But I love music. Everything from Led Zep all the way to Incubus. I do play a little six string. But love the bass. I been playing bass for fifteen years. Been playing six on and of for nearly forty five years. But I never got the hang of it. I sing a little too. I was in prison for nearly 20 Years. Thats where I learned the bass, at FCI Jesup We jammed twice a week in the the rec room. and then we did shows for everybody on the holidays. It made doing that time so much easier. Enough about me, Back to your subject Yes Layne was a beast. No Excuses is my favorite song.
Musical love
YES...that octave difference gives me the chills...and THAT was the magic!
I love singing Jerry's part whenever I sing along to AIC.
@@lukebryde594 I'm sure you won't be able to sing Laynes part in Alice in chains 😎🤣
Props to Scott Olson, second guitarist, on this song and the whole set. He fit right in and did an amazing job with such an iconic group.
Supposedly he is ill possibly dementia, shame because he needs funds for treatment I think someone started a Go Fund Me page I read somewhere
He killed it on this song in particular
@@chrisparsons6686 :( Sad to hear that. I found the gofundme page, but it's no longer active. Still, they raised almost $15k, so that's gotta be useful.
See i feel the opposite. Regardless though I'm blasting either when it comes on!
Nah he atcully messes up a lot in nutshell Mike Inez looks at him like wtf are you doing scotti
I cannot help but think that there will never be another band like this and its sad. I miss Layne. RIP beautiful man.
Sadly, there never will be. Not in my heart anyway. I hope to find a band that I feel even a fraction of how much I love Alice in Chains. So sad. I went to Seattle and got Layne's first name tattooed on my wrist. It is my homage to him.
Probably not ever
Never can u say never
@@ginarichards6307 Exactly, Layne's voice was unique and there will be new amazing singers but no one like him :(
Facts
Scott Olson killed it the whole show. His spot amongst these legends needs to be recognized.
Ya he did. Great fills & so on time with Jerry with rhythm.
Ohh shut up
Is so fuckin bunk what's happening to him at his age. Dudes a beast. I hope some form of treatment can help him
@@breeavlogs1612 what is happening to him?
@@croslash1 dementia 😔
Lanye at 50-60% of his faculties all high and strung out still sings better than most singers!
No shit. I often wonder what he'd have sounded like healthy. It's crazy that he sounded that good despite being in such poor health.
@Jason Karl
Whew, fuck THAT! I'm an ex-heroin addict and I'm very familiar with heroin withdrawals, so the thought of having to do an unplugged AND sold-out show - especially with having all the guys from Metallica there - detoxing, not getting my "fix", would be...just...horrifying.
Thank FUCK I don't have to live that life anymore, man.
Such an unfortunate, unnecessary loss. We miss you, Layne. R.I.P.
isn't he at 100% in this unplugged due to the drugs?
@@magshype
Eh, I'd say 90%. He had a couple vocal fumbles here and there, and they had to restart "Sludge Factory" 'cause of that. Still, his voice is incredible in this performance.
when you dont use drugs and dont have nothjing to do whit that.. you MUST SHUT UP and just listen the music, respect layne hes ALLWAYS DO HIS BEST AT 200%
God the harmony at 2:12 on "forever"
Chills every time.
It's so perfect💗
Agree! Had the privilege to see them live a few times. I'll never forget them opening their set at Lollapalooza with Would. People heard the bass line and went CRAZY.
I think this is one of the best layne jerry harmonies of all their songs.
(Edit) If not the best!
Literally every single harmony layne and jerry did will never be repeated.
@@rensb9214 100%
Cantrell is such a good vocalist. Love his voice.
Agreed..... His guitar playing is pretty damn good as well.
mrs cantrell?
Staley encouraged him to sing more too!!
He and Layne harmonized so well togther!
It's insanely good.
Look how far away Layne's Mic is from his mouth when he's singing the chorus. POWER!
They actually said can hear laynes voice from lungs than speakers stronger
No ego, all about the music.
@JD amazing!
@JD Barrett Martin said that about Layne during the Madseason era
great mic, excellent singer, Layne was always amazing at power control... so Jerry wasn't covered up and destroy the harmonies... I was a backstage crew guy for a few glorious years
Jerry and Layne were magical together. Just incredible.
This by far was one of the most excellent unplugged concerts ever in the history of MTV.
The best! Iam not a huge AIC fan.
Best by far
Nirvana and Pearl jam were bad ass too. Stp as well. Those were my favorites
no doubt!!
MTV you’re the best
Even when extremely sick, weighing around 120-130, Layne is still more innovative, unique, and all around better than 90% of all lead singers out there. Just amazing. My vocal hero.
I remember him with love their music was light for my teens. It makes so happy to remember my first little TV with mtv cable. I always tried to watch their music videos... But my parents had only one TV. Tvs were very expensive that time 1995-1996. That was one of their last shows... I was 16. Now I'm almost 40. And these memories accompany me for this life. Very grateful with life for enyoing their time and their music. I was poor kid. Now I have more. But still being that kid in my teens deep inside. The happiness the joy the struggle. Wonderful things.
Layne was pure soul.
And don't forget that same night Jerry was dealing with food poisoning
@@elmarbeau I bought my first Alice in Chains “tape” at age 17, 1992 :) I listened to it in the parking lot of the mall in my Volkswagen Bug lol
Ok I’m iiiioHi I Thank Hi Donna I’m so
All the bands after that 90s AIC influenced, and they aren't in the RRHOF. pfft
My seven year old daughter just randomly busted out singing “something’s gotta turn out right” while playing with her friend today. I love it.
Bravo......
It is correct
you're raising that child right playing for her this amazing band
Wow. Doesn't everybody LOVE YOU.
your kid is turning out right
We will never get the privilege of experiencing anything close to this performance ever again. No auto tune. No computers. Just raw talent.
It can happen
Jerry and William acoustic performance of Voices. Yeah, yeah, he's not Layne, but it is a damn good performance
It's out there, but not in the mainstream.
@@JoshuaMuse Well don't be shy. Send some links.
@@fractalwavy4784 every old fart always says something like “ nothing will ever beat this “ Then they have to add EVER just to give their statement an extra dash of ridiculousness. Of course it can happen again. What can’t happen again is turd herder being young again. Same as me.
I remember when they first hit the local scene. Their first video did not move the needle much, great song & they look like they could be another hair band to a first time listener. Man in a box blew them up. AIC is one of my all time favorite bands & I’ve seen them live 10 times, all with Layne fronting. But I’d be a fool to say it could never happen again.
Amazing mic control from Layne. That’s a real subtlety when it comes to being a serious, pro level singer. Knowing how to back off and blend is something that a shocking number of high profile singers don’t get right. He backs off right until the exact moment when he clicks in perfectly with Jerry.

There is people who got it wrong

As of now, yes...

💜🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶
It's just simply unbelievable how good this band sounds unplugged--from Staley's signtaure voice, the powerful bass lines, the perfect drumming, and of course Jerry Cantrell's harmonization and epic guitar playing. Their chemistry brings me to tears, I'm honored to be named after such a special songwriter.
Hai assolutamente ragione. Purtroppo credo che siano tutto sommato sottovulatati. Tutti i componenti del gruppo intendo. Per fare un unplugged cosi bello devono suonare da Dio. Ed è cosi. R.I.P.😢😢😢❤❤❤
And all after a long ass break from playing…no rehearsal or anything, just straight to the bone.
You are the man lol👍
You got a great name n parents will great musical taste
Laynes voice is usually struggling on most songs this is one of the few where he shines
name a more iconic vocal duo. I'll wait.
Looks like you're still waiting ;-)
Lennon/McCartney
Simon and Garfunkel
Keith Moon and Ol' Greg...Shall I continue?
You'll be 80 yrs old and still waiting
I think this is wayyyyyyyy better than the studio version
1000%!!! & What a Beautiful Song!! WE need Some MORE of this Style of Music today!!
Of course it is, every song on the unplugged album is better, hell them bones could've been on here and they would've nailed it
Yes for sure!!!
@@johnthefisherman7577 I agree with all except for rooster. I feel like that song needs to blast in sound.
@@alexc656 yeah I can agree with that. But songs like down in a hole for example
Those high notes he’s holding in that harmony are insane
When Jerry sings “I haven’t felt like this in so long” it gives me goosebumps every time
Layne and Jerry were amazing together, vocally. RIP Layne.
Yessir! His death was the biggest upset ever in the music scene for that era. We lost WAY too many good musicians from that genre.
Their Harmonies are so beautiful and unique X X
Simon and Garfunkel
R.I.P. (Rock In Paradise) Layne
Another one gone waaaayy to soon
Yeah, it goes away
All of this and more of nothing in my life
No colored clay
Individuality not safe
As of now I bet you got me wrong
So unsure you run from something strong
I can't let go
Threadbare tapestry unwinding slow
Feel a tortured brain
Show your belly like you want me to
As of now I bet you got me wrong
So unsure we reach for something
Strong, I haven't felt like this in so long
Wrong, in a sense too far gone from love
That don't last forever
Somethings gotta turn out right
You sugar taste
Sweetness doesn't often touch my face
Stay if you please
You may not be here when I leave
As of now I bet you got me wrong
So unsure we reach for something strong
Strong, I haven't felt like this in so long
Wrong, in a sense too far gone from love
Strong, I haven't felt like this in so long
Wrong, in a sense too far gone from love
That don't last forever

Gracias Alvaro
@@beefandbarley de nada!:)
Is it just me or are most the lyrics cut off in the description in these YT videos?
One of the best ever! I love how around 3:05 Layne wants to "reach" and Jerry wants to "Run" from something strong, and they harmonize so well they cover it so good that you barely notice until the 20th playback. Mistakes spun into greatness.
It's great how their both in the shot when this happens
What was the mistake? It sounds perfect to me
@@TheStepmonkey one said reach and the other said run. No biggie.
Fhkin awesome 👌
It was Jerry messing up his own lyric, oddly.
Too the 187 people who disliked this. you got it wrong
Fan Justin Bieber for this Ka Ka Ka Ka 😁
we must avoid such people
Metric Asylum fuck them
You got To wrong.
They're mad that new kids on the block didn't make it past the early 90s.
This version is 100x better than the studio version. How is that even possible!? Edit maybe 10x better a 100x might be a tad dramatic.
the producing of sap was interesting imo i prefer the unplugged versions of the sap songs
@@ishowsped4728 yeah don't get me wrong I really like it but I think they were kind of experimenting with that type of sound. The unplugged version just took it to a whole another level.
@@ChadH2023 brother is my favorite off of sap the harmonies between layne and jerry are so beautiful better than no excuses tbh, and the solo is exceptional
@@ishowsped4728 one of my favorites!
I agree
It's so amazing watching Layne so effortlessly sing what other singers really struggle go be able to achieve. He is hands down the best singer ever and such a great loss.
At a bad time in his life also!!! He was the man
Yeah
And at bad health at that
Exactly, he was the best💗
INSANE!!! 2 different voices yet totally the same in harmony and they created a freaking masterpiece!!!!! WOW mad props
Isn't it?..Just amazes me. Very different voices but somehow they merge beautifully.
Alice In Chains was so underrated, I might get some hate but Alice In Chains were the pinnacle of grunge, they were above all, still are.
That's not even a hot take that's the truth.
Strongly agree
Then a few 3-Doors Down, Nickleback, Creed songs reminded a lot of us how good the Grunge erea was.
@@justinwallace390 Wash your mouth, lmfao, 3 doors down and Nickelback aren't grunge, they're ass. Creed isn't grunge either, but they're at least decent. Get outta here LMFAO.
Love how Staley and Cantrell pass the vocals back and forth. Art!
2:12 I GOT THE KINDA GOOSEBUMPS WHERE IT FEELS LIKE YOU'RE CLIMAXING AND THE TOP OF YOUR HEAD IS ABOUT TO EXPLODE INTO SPACE. GODDAMN THIS IS REAL MUSIC.
1:42 also that part
Scotty's picking, especially around the 3:44 mark, is awesome. I figured he doesn't get much recognition as a rented band member so I wanted to mention that his talent Level is amazing.
Was reading this as he was playing it 🤣 2:25 was awesome too
sean holding it down...mike with the metallica snarks...layne in pink...jerry looking like an angel...gotta love it
Back when the M in MTV stood for music.
Yep. Fuck the real world and road rules. responsible for both killing MTV and a lot of TV in general. reality shows suck.

@Chris U. Money Thieving Virgins
Can you believe that we live on a planet that gave us Layne?
God I miss you man. 💔
Thank you A. I. C. for still providing us comfort when we need it most.
My most eternal gratitude for carrying me through difficult times.
Love you guys.
Layne’s voice is just unbelievable. It’s just overwhelming, it’s breathtaking! So glad this performance happened and that it’s always there when we need it.
Staley is simply one of rocks great singers, there’s been better singers than him but he sounds like no one else. It cuts right thorough you and grabs the emotions. Much missed
When he was at his least drug addled he's easily the best rock singer ever. Even here he sounds amazing even if he is extremely dopesick.
I think he was probably the best…
@@markriley232There were some outliers, but there is something raw about Staley's voice that keeps me coming back. Like Kurt Cobain, but actually really good instead of tolerable.
💯 more so this unplugged than studio versions
The duality of their voices is just straight up pleasant to the soul's ear. The two polar harmonize a hauntingly and darkly beautiful effect. You don't even have to enjoy this type of music but cannot deny auditory bliss these two echo through the mic. I am sure many a 90's kids mom's were like, "those two have such wonderful voices...why do they have so scary and dark?" Lol
Aren't they incredible together? I miss Layne. Really glad Jerry is still with us!
You are spot on with you comment. I just discovered AIC (ya it's October 2023 and I am 67). I am fascinated, captivated, mesmerized with the harmonies and heart broken for Layne and Mike. Oh what I missed out on.
Unreal!!! 😔😔💔
@@stevencopley5487better to have missed out and then find rather than look and miss. Here’s to many more years of discovery my friend.
@@erichthedread4595 🙏
The vocals on this one are amazing
My all time favourite Unplugged performance. The way Layne flips his vocals from clean to overdrive so effortlessly is something you cannot teach. It’s just an amazing display of natural talent that we’ll never see again
2:12 I GOT THE KINDA GOOSEBUMPS WHERE IT FEELS LIKE YOU'RE CLIMAXING AND THE TOP OF YOUR HEAD IS ABOUT TO EXPLODE INTO SPACE. GODDAMN THIS IS REAL MUSIC.
Best unplugged album MTV has ever had. ill argue with anyone... This band saved my life probably more than once.
Kurt Cobain where did you sleep last night is special but overall this is better.
Me too!!!!
Even halfway in a drug induced coma, Layne effortlessy hits every note and sounds amazing.
He was trashed and still better than any vocalist I have ever heard in my life.
@@hughesoutdoors5017 agreed, one of a kind.
And doesn't open his mouth ;)
@Ryan McGovern thought he was detoxing thru this
@@hughesoutdoors5017 thought he was detoxing thru this
Never started listening to Alice and chains until a couple years ago and now I must say they’re probably my favorite band of all time. Their music will never die friends.
Never my friend.
22 and listening to them as if I lived back in the 90s, I will make sure they will never be forgotten ✌️✌️
@@theroamer2355 Us old heads believe in yall.
3:06 Despite how unsure Layne sounds with the word "reach", Jerry was actually the one who got the lyrics wrong. It's "reach for something strong". Jerry actually realizes and says "for" instead of "from" for the second word while Layne says "from" because he still thinks he messed up. So Layne sings "ream from" and Jerry sings "run for". I am overanalyzing, but these guys must have had nerves of steel to slip up like this and continue sounding awesome.
Layne an Jerry singing together is like what a happy marriage of two soulmates should be and is
wtf
Absolutely love the harmonizing between Jerry, and Layne. It's easy to see why he wanted Layne in the group. It's just a once in a lifetime kind of pairing those two.
The level of talent on this stage is just insane. Will another band on this level ever exist again given the state of rock and way the industry is now? I don't think so. Alice in Chains coming together was like lightening striking the tip of a needle, they were a gift from the universe to all of us. This whole set was near perfect.....not many bands could pull this off. I put this right up there with Queen's live-aid performance on the all time great live performance list.
Also, I don't think such a musical revolution that comes from a specific geographical location will ever happen again, so much good music all from Seattle area, so much good music, I didn't think music would ever suck so bad like it does today, so lucky to have lived through the 80sand90s,so much good music, and MTV was actually Kool and showed videos, today, MTV is pure garbage, like most of today's music, thank God for foo fighters, one of the few good bands now, experiencing this whole Seattle music scene was so fucking awesome, I'm sure nothing like this will ever happen again, so many badass bands from one geographical location.
Rest in Peace Layne, it's now 2019, 17 years later and I will forever play your body of work.
Layne's Voice🤘🤘🤘
Layne... Father
What a voice! R.I.P. Layne.
And Cantrell's voice too! Awsome!
.
Jerry and Layne. . . Couldn't find a better duo. Very similar vocal sound and the harmonies are just WOW X X
The harmonies are fucking immaculate.
I'm glad I lived in an age where a band like this could blow up as much as they did.
Laynes high harmonies here are pristine. Perfect, gritty, tenor. We lost a vocal genius.
If we only knew in the 90s that we were experiencing the last gasp of rock ‘n’ roll, I think we would’ve savored the moment a little more.
best unplugged ever. You can find everything in this show: great songs, sadness, true performance no fx, some light, friendship...and that sad feeling that this was going to be a farewell from Layne
it took a few years to get him to do this - and this was basically it - he really was not active after this performance
it's so sad though you can hear the pain in his music. you know how much courage It took for him to do the MTV unplugged. I just cried every song looking at the pain in his face and body
Brandi Sparks_Hendrix I agree. You can see Layne’s shyness and anxiety but he killed it!!! RIP 😰❤️
It is true.
Yeah, he's hurting, sad af
Hard to watch for sure.
He didnt realize how great he truly was. His face has the same torture if not worse than Cobain. So heartbreaking watching this unplugged, especially knowing the circumstances he died in. Knowing he died alone and suffering mentally is heartbreaking
Just an epic live performance. Jerry and Layne achieved some great harmony, gives you chills sometimes.
Sitting here watching I remember my friend, he died on his way to my place. We had tickets to go see AIC that night. Those tickets will never leave my frig.

Jerry is a good vocalist in his own way
Thank you for putting the words down. 😎
Man I love this performance. Best one of the unplugged imo. Breaks my heart how grey Layne looks here, and how Jerry is obviously checking on him throughout the concert.
I grew up listening to AIC but didn’t appreciate their sound and talent until now as an adult and as a father feel so much compassion for Staley’s situation and yet they continued to create master piece after master piece songs through trials and tribulations. This unplugged concert is historic.
Buy Far the Best unplugged to this day and more!!!
This may be inappropriate to say but it's not meant to be, it's amazing how when you completely remove the ego from the front man how the band as a whole completely connect and thrive
I feel like Jerry was the responsible parent in the group acting as the glue that would barely keep AIC together.
Never can get over how far from the mic Layne keeps his voice. It's so damn powerful. Just pure god given ability that he has mastered with hard work and knowing his voice and sound so well to know little tricks like that. One of the best characteristics of AIC as a whole is how much focus emphasis they put into making their sound
I wish I could just reach through the screen and give Layne a big hug and tell him it will be OK 😔
Me too 😢
Same here. I wish that he was still alive 😪
But it wasn't ok... 😢
Oh me too my friends I will give Layne the biggest hug 🫂 and tell him it will be ok and love you so much 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰 and when you sing like that it blows me away and I will pray for you 🙏and that God will help you through hard times and give you peace 🕊️🙏⛪
Layne and Jerry have voices that blend so well together
Layne's voice is just powerful
"I haven't felt like this in so long
Wrong
In a sense too far gone from love
That don't last forever
Something's gotta turn out right"
Any old goof can sing a heavy song powerfully, but it takes a master of his craft to sing so gently yet with so much power and emotion
Just fucking amazing. The harmony these two made together is untouched. Laynes talent was off the chart during the duets. I hope everyone hears this set the way I do. Fucking Incredible
Layne's voice at 2:16 .....chills
Love this version, much better than the studio one
Love all these songs better than the studio ones.
Most of the Unplugged is better then the studio versions. They had a sort of effect they put on alot of their songs that I didn't think complemented them. Idk why they did it. I think AIC would have been even bigger if they recorded like this. And I don't mean just acoustic
All songs are better than the studio version.
The second guitar makes this version better
Eh...I mostly agree that they are better here. "Would?" is definitely better on "Dirt", though. That's one of the greatest and most powerful rock songs of the 1990's. Not to say it isn't good here. It's still really good. But it loses its raw power here.
Layne screams beautifully in quiet desperation
Wish he was still here.
We all do.
don't we all brother
blameitonablackstar me too..
@@92seattleaic83 I'm a sister, but yes :)
The only way I would wish he was here is if he got clean. To see him like this is fucking rough.
Edit: I didn't mean for this comment to come out as shitty as it looks. Of course I would take Layne back anyday, but I would rather he enjoyed living as well without all the pain and suffering.
Them singing together is amazing. . Jerry must had been devastated to lose his friend. . .
Unplugged never got better than this. Everything adds up, nothing of Chains' raw footage gets lost without the plugged distortion. Melodically outstanding, such a wonderfull vibe. IMO the pinnacle of grunge music.
I love Jerry Cantrell's voice it's so soft & beautiful RIP Layne
It’s good to see Layne come to life a little bit on this one. Head bobbing and what not. I can’t imagine how he felt this night. It’s clear he was fked up most of the night but still had that incredible talent come out on que every time. Best performance IMO.
From what I've heard and read, he was pretty bad. Still, I respect the man for basically forcing himself to be there and give such a great performance.
The way Layne sang this is just magical!
My favorite band
black is the soul one of my all time favorite ROCK BANDS🎸
Along with Pink Floyd so many Greats !
My fav band too 😁
Amazing that Layne starts to say reach instead of run, he still caught himself to where it was barely noticeable in his condition here. He was amazing.
Was searching for someone who caught this too !!
There will never be music like this ever again, Layne was obviously on his way out but bless the rest of the band for a sound and vocals we will never experience again.
This has to be my favorite song of the unplugged.
Thanks for the upload. The colors and quality so much better.
my favorite changes all the time... so safe to say i love all these songs.. but depending on the day, and time of day, ill usually put one song on repeat over the others.. but yeah, they're all catching and soul touching..
Yeah I really like this one too. I think this is my favorite version of this song.🤔👍
Yeah its so darkly beautiful
This is the BEST sounding unplugged song EVER😁
This was the last generation of truly inspiring and great music! The garbage coming out these days doesn’t hold a candle to any of the early-mid 90’s.
Only bands around today worth anything are the ones carrying over from the 90s. The 90s was an amazing decade for music and truly is the last for good ol blues based rock n roll. I hope she makes a come back again! Saw AIC 3 years ago, and Tool in Jan 2020. Modern music makes me cry
@@lennyrepongo78 you ain’t kidding!! All modern music is utter garbage! There is no soul in music anymore! You find it here and there but it’s mainly in the leftovers from the 90’s as we’ve both said here.. Linkin park grew on me over the yrs they had soul in their music. I can’t think of any others that have come out in the last 20+ yrs that are worth mentioning...
@@lennyrepongo78 I’m all about the blues! We got a local mill turned into a blues and jazz concert hall. Pretty cool little place.. Gets some really good old blues guys!

Lanes voice gives me goose bumps in this song
Killer duo harmony, their voices blend into one almost perfectly at 0:37 anyone who doesn't know Alice won't be able to tell who's who without looking very closely
Best performance of Laynes life. He had 1 concert after this and it was amazing also. I struggled with the same substance my whole life and I don’t know of anyone else that could do this while strung out. Amazing
nope, they played an entire tour after this in 1996 opening for Kiss, at least 6 shows? something like that? but i get what you mean, however some drug addicts can play well drugged up.
Most things are actually easier on that particular helper, at least up to a point - and then yes, returns diminish … but there’s a reason people do these things: to quote, I think it was Mitch Hedberg? “Not all drugs are good … some of them are great!” Your fingers feel more limber, your vocal cords loosen up, you’re flexible and disinhibited, after years of gray instead it feels like all the color and sound and flavor have returned to the world, your cares are gone, old grudges disappear, the world is in tune … if you can stay awake, it’s great, and even sleep is better. But like I said, it can have diminishing returns: high cost, dealers suddenly disappearing on you for weeks or trying to make an extra buck my mixing your shit with something stupid or insoluble like baby powder, cops fucking with you just to fuck with you or to meet some quota even though they don’t really give a shit and they’re all on steroids or worse themselves … even if you have the money, it gets messy and unpleasant as time goes on. But it’s still all worth it: again, if it sucked, people wouldn’t do it; the sad reality is, it’s fucking great - it’s just everything around it which sucks, and of course because it’s an unmonitored black market substance you never know what you’re getting, and that can mess up your health in an instant too.
Layne and Jerry's harmonies are LIFE
who tf dislikes this song!.. the whole unplugged set is pure gold
This has to be the best unplugged of all time.
sometimes you forget how how great a singer is Jerry Cantrell. and they were great together
I'll never get tired of their voices. Incredible harmonies.
alice in wonderland is the myth, alice in chains is the reality
Hands down greatest voice of all time. no one comes close.sure people can sing like him but no one sounds like him.
Yes 🙌
not sure if you're talking about Layne or Jerry, but either way, you're right.
@@devon5694 LAYNE...,. Really???
If an oreo could sing... soft and sweet in the middle, with the crunchy cookie surrounding all!!! The vocal harmony in this song is insane. I miss you 90's
This is probably my favorite harmonizing ever. Layne and Jerry are gold Jerry.... GOLD!
Who’s here in 2021 still? This will be a daily listen for me for the rest of my life
I've always been here
Yep I’m back every week at least - I start to feel depressed and then I remember I haven’t listened to this for a while
Always
Yes everyday
Here
Just discovering Layne Staley in the past few months. Where have I been? OMG what a talent, what a voice. this Unplugged and the Mad Season live stuff just blows me away and I can't listen to it enough. Sheer musical genius. And I'm a 62 yo ol F* who's been rocking for years. How did I miss this ? Just some of the best music ever....
So sad to see Layne in the condition he was in during the taping of "Unplugged".
This guy was one of the greatest voices of Seattle.
He is very much missed.
A lot of Alice fans deny how bad shape Layne was in by 94”. He was not delivering a lot of the time and he didn’t give a ****
