      Been listening to C&C since the early 2000s and I love DG but that's a bit of a stretch. Just in Rock music alone there's Chris Cornell, Layne Staley, Freddie Mercury, Stevie Nicks, Maynard James Keenan, Mike Patton. If you wanna get into other genres there's artists like Nina Simone, Whitney Houston, Mariah Carey, Celine Dion, Andrea Bocelli, Billie Holiday, Sam Cooke, Ella Fitzgerald, Joni Mitchell, Marvin Gaye...

    His reaction, from 02:37 until at 02:50, was exactly my reaction as the song progressed. I did not know this guy was, and was terrified when I saw him standing there with only an acoustic guitar. I thought it was going to be a mess... Not sure whether I had ever been more on the wrong about something...

    I think the reason why Dallas's cover is so good is because, as you said, he doesn't just sing the lyrics. He feels them. And that emotion creates a real resonance in his performance. For those of us of a certain age, AIC songs bring back strong memories and we react emotionally not just from the music, but the memories of those times and also the loss of those voices that sang those songs. I always loved this song, but hearing Dallas sing it the way he did also made me tear up. It just proves how good of an artist he is.

    Being a huge Layne Staley/AIC fan, it is so hard to listen to those who cover their music b/c, even the best of artists, just miss the mark. However, Dallas blew me away with his interpretation of the song. He took this gritty, raw, slightly fearful/sad song and made it equally haunting yet so beautifully smooth - and you could still feel the angst that was Layne. Well done! And yes I shed a few tears as well!!!

      Layne was telling us flatout in his music that he was on a path to death , you can almost hear the accepted reality of his own demise on the Dirt album, he knows the addiction has him and most likely will destroy him.
      He was a one in a billion talent and missed sorely by us hardcore Fans.

    Hearing Alexisonfire in 2004 got started my search for Dallas’s first ep for so long. Like Knives hit hard for me at the time. Only saw Alexisonfire once live, but I got to tell Dallas how much the song touched me. Been a fan for so long!

    What more do you want ! Michael’s reaction / emotions, great song, played by such an Angelic Voice in a lumberjack coat (happy to be a Canadian). Thanks Michael for sharing this with us, and Dallas for such a stellar and spellbinding performance ,,, I can’t stop playing this. :-)

    Alexisonfire was predominantly from my home town, St. Catharines...Dallas I believe is from Toronto. He came to town and was the first act to play our new performing arts center...quick Wiki check, he is from St. Catharines!

    I have loved Alice In Chains since I was a kid! Then I got into City And Colour. Then I realized he would cover Alice In Chains tunes & tonight I stumbled upon this one. I had a similar reaction. I got obsessed with right away with Dallas Greens cover, picked up my guitar & started working on my own, so simple & similar to his. When I was a teenager, I never thought I'd be 46, sitting on my bed, fooling around with an Alice In Chains song @ 5am 😄✌️💙🎵🤙

    Yes! Thank you for this. Dusted off my insides and exposed my deeply embedded AIC love. I haven’t heard that song in a loooong time - remembering those times and concerts now; love what music does - gets you back there in a moment, one note. Just, yes.
