I think Mike was a sadder case than Layne. He actually sort of made it through then kept relapsing until he passed. :( He just couldn't escape drugs even after multiple rehab stints.
Sad mike was never able to cope with the loss of his best friend such a shame both so talented they could have made such beautiful music still! God I wish I could go back a relive the 90s again i miss all of my heros
“ “Layne?” I asked. “Yes, honey. He's gone.” It was a call I had expected for years but it destroyed me nonetheless. His loss left a void I’ve felt every day since. I expect I always will.” -Mark Lanegan (Sing backwards and weep) Edit: Rest In Peace Mark 🖤😭, can’t believe you’re gone. You are always going to be a legend to me.
Just heard the news about Mark's passing. As an Irish person, I'm proud and glad he enjoyed his stay in the Irish countryside during his final few years
Being at the end up a 22 year habit where you're the only one left standing, and that you know you've lost because you can actually feel death on you, I would think this song would be sad but it's actually soothing. Battle almost over, have mercy on me and the rest in these shoes. We're so sorry for wasting this life you gave us, Lord. Please have mercy on us..
RIP brother, the nicest musician you could ever wish to meet. God damn my heart is so heavy today. I will never forget those 10 or 15 minutes you gave up just to talk to me. Made me feel like an old friend from the first words spoken.
What an incredible experience that must have been. While you didn't go into a lot of details (and I liked that you didn't, keeping it between you and Mark and not shared w/ thousands to get more likes), you captured what I truly believe was Mark's essence. You confirm what I've always thought. That Mark was a down-to-earth, gracious dude. Thank-you for sharing!
I absolutely love this description from Wikipedia: "He is known for his baritone voice, which has been described as being "as scratchy as a three-day beard yet as supple and pliable as moccasin leather"

Don't forget John Baker Saunders from MS. Another gone too soon. SW, CC, LS, MS, CB, KC, ML, JBS, AW. And if I forgot any, I'm sorry, it's been a deathly few years.
That shit broke me. It's scary to think about how many people Mark lost in the course of a decade and how logically he should've gone with them. It's nothing short of a miracle that he's continued to be here with us.
So beautiful. I can't believe layne, Mike and now Mark are all gone. These guys built the soundtrack to my entire life! I'm a 53 year old recovering addict myself with 10 plus years clean now. I used pretty much everything known to man during my life but Heroin and Crack were definitely my biggest demonic drugs. Looking back I find it difficult to understand how some of us live when others don't. So sad. Rip to all of us that didn't make it.
Your story rings a bell with mine, as I'm 44 now, and spent years facing the horrors of crack and heroin addiction (still on methadone to this day, and until my death I expect) Those guys were part of the soundtrack of my teen years, and to this day I still mourn Mark Lanegan's passing, as it was so unexpected...
RIGHT?! Between his lovely voice and Maggie's plaintive (and may I say, rather otherworldly) playing, it just rips my heart out every time I hear it. 💓💓💓
Layne would have loved this. They were good friends before Layne passed away in 2022. I live in the area they both are from. You can still feel their presence here. Rest in peace fellas, thank you for your gift of music to the world. Til we meet again ❤️❤️❤️
The first time I saw Screaming Trees live I said “this fuckin guy is going to be a legend.” After everything he’s done since, how isn’t he? He’s right up there with Layne and Chris Cornell vocally.
Chris was something else. Saw him perform the summer before he died. His voice was euphoric for me. Mark's solo stuff, voice and writing on the other hand has run deep for me. I listen to him more than anyone else.
@@gaos1100 I've read it. Amazing book. I read the first half sitting in a bar sippin beers. Couldn't put it down. Finally the waitress asked me about it and I had to explain to her exactly who he was. Obviously she was on the younger side so I kinda had to enlighten her about the whole Seattle scene. Not sure if she could sense my enthusiasm about it all.
i guess Im asking randomly but does anybody know a way to log back into an Instagram account? I was dumb lost the login password. I would love any tricks you can offer me!
I’m here after hearing Marks passing, completely devastated and at a loss of words. Rest easy Mark your music and art has impacted so much of us and will continue too. We love you always Mark hope your having fun with Layne up there ❤️🕊
This song was already one of the saddest ever written. This version is just heartbreaking. That pedal steel and Mark's mournful voice made this something that chokes me up every time.
Mark Lanegan just passed away today and my sadness for his loss is profound. He was a survivor of a hugely impacting time in my life, and both the fame and drug addiction that nearly took him out. His story was about a man with a great voice who made it through all of these obstacles and live a life outside of music
They are like war veterans longing and missing their fallen comrades... Big respect to all surviving grunge bands and their loyal fans.... . Stay safe and healthy and may God Bless you all..
Goddamn. Mark really put his heart into every note. That song in itself can make your heart ache. But Mark's obvious love for AiC and Layne in particular shows in this. RIP Mark. You will never be forgotten.
Oh little burning star, now you can go to heaven and shine with other legends like you, eternally, your art, forever. 🌟🖤 RIP MARK LANEGAN (1964-2022) 🕯
Even at the end of his live career, just look at that smile @3:59 from Layne... Thank you Mr. Lanegan for this beautiful tribute. Layne and Mike will live forever!
2:47 That moment when we're see Mark's deep emotions. He just kissin' his own fingers and touch his heart with it...man! Nice n' heartbreaking. ✌🏻💔 RIP Layne🕊️ & Mike 🙏🏻 Incredible job Mr. Lanegan! Edit: R.I.P Mr. Mark 'legend'Lanegan 🕊️
Ouch! This one hits close to home.. one of the all time greats! you'll be missed and your music will live forever!! Glad I got to shake your hand and thank you for the music. Say hi to Layne.
In my opinion, this was the best performance of the MoPOP Founders Award 2020! Marg sang great, Maggie was absolutely awesome on the pedal steel (she made all the difference) and the others were pretty good too! And I don't understand how 15 people can dislike it. Finally, those images of Layne and Mike were heartbreaking...
Damn this is good. Definitely the second best version. Maggie’s lap steel is perfect for this. What a fantastic recording to be left with before we’d lose Mark.
Reading through the comments and man it really hurts. Mark was such an underrated singer and amazing human being. All of my heros are dead and gone now. Mark, I love you brother.
Mark, what an absolute hauntingly moving version of Nutshell. Your voice is magical. Your book was an all nighter read. Much respect and appreciation for your musical gifts and collaborations. Abundant blessings. ♥️🙏🏻☮️
I’m here because of Mark’s passing, but what a cover version. His voice and the lap steel add a whole new depth of melancholy and dreariness to what is already one of the saddest songs of the era. R.I.P. Mark.
I'm just overwhelmed with loss right now. Mark did so well to overcome his addictions, only to succumb to Covid. Never get complacent about this virus.
I though about this cover when heard about his passing.... God, such a loss....thanksMark for your incredible kindness and talent, RIP... we'll miss you a lot.
I think this song gets more relatable every single day as time goes on. And kids will keep stumbling upon this song and it seems depression gets worse each year. I lost my 15 year old little brother to suicide after our mom passed away. Life is hard but I have 2 precious kids I’ll be there for no matter what
So awesome to see a grunge icon like Lanegan re-do this song. They absolutely did it justice. Rip to Layne Staley and Mike Starr , along with so many other greats, taken too soon.
Thanks Mark. I listen to Mad season still to this day. Your work with Layne was beyond comparison, and that both of you could tap into the human condition as you did is a rare talent. Everybody who loves Layne and AIC, look after yourselves, be strong, survive.
2:26 is the kind of guy he was. He was famous but, not above others. The kinda guy who would sit down on the sidewalk with strangers to sign an autograph. How badly I wish I could have met him before he died.
Another beautiful Generation X voice signs off. Thank you Mark Lanegan. You will be missed.💔

Nutshell is my favourite AiC song and top 5 of all songs ever written, but I can never stand anybody else covering it. It never sounds good and all it does is make me wish for the original. Until this. Mark makes it work. Effortlessly.
Jar of Flies and Mad Season remain in my top albums. So soft and so not soft at the same time. So much underlying tragedy. Grunge was much more cerebral than mainstream gave it credit for.
We're all feeling this one a little harder today. RIP Mark Lanegan.
:(
Cos it didn't hit hard enough 😅😩 oh man . 😫😫
💔 Heartbreaking. Rest easy ML
I'm not even a 90's kid, but the Seattle scene was my reintroduction to music and knowing that the majority of the most powerful voices from the era are now dead, all gone too young, is simply SAD, *_don't do drugs people_*
@@jayjohns1391 Ok, troll or not, that sounds like the ancient human enemy, "Excuse-Man!".
Mark was the only person that could sing an AIC song and take it to a new level of greatness. You're sorely missed, Lanegan..
I felt like he would've been a great replacement. The lower octave would've worked.
But it's nowhere near as good as the original and not even on the same planet as the unplugged version.
I have to agree with your points. My comment was how Mark took it to a new level of greatness as a tribute to Layne.
@@definitiveenergy1878 Meh, it's all personal taste, I shouldn't judge it. If you're a big fan of someone and really like their playing/voice, of course you're gonna love their versions more.

It's a real thing. Sucks.
I'm very close, rapidly encroaching on 50..if I even make it there. My children need their old mom, so I better.. lol.
Cherish every day as much as possible.

One can hope.
There will never be someone to replicate this man
@@Shakejuntmane There already are.
this video was already special but now it has a whole new meaning. R.I.P Mark, hope you and Layne can reconnect up there

So do I...💔❤️😢
I know it does
You put it better than I could, Mark will be missed

Rest in Peace Mark. There aren’t any voices like yours, and there never will be again 😔
What a day… 😭😭
Well said. This is a very sad day.
Well said . Rip Mark xxx
Mark recorded this while he was recovering from severe covid illness. What a legend.
Love Mark lenang,but Layne Stanley and Scott Weiland,que saudades, não a palavras
I'm glad they included Mike a lot in this video. People often forget he's not with us anymore as well.
Damn, even I forgot about Starr... Sad
I think Mike was a sadder case than Layne. He actually sort of made it through then kept relapsing until he passed. :( He just couldn't escape drugs even after multiple rehab stints.
Rip boys
Me too about getting Mr Starr in there as well.
Sad mike was never able to cope with the loss of his best friend such a shame both so talented they could have made such beautiful music still! God I wish I could go back a relive the 90s again i miss all of my heros
Say "Hi" to Layne, Baker, Shawn, Landrew, Wally, Chris, Kurt, Mike...this is heartbreaking. It just keeps going on.

You're damn right, my friend.
He’s THE modern day Johnny Cash. Or maybe a better description is us Gen Xers version of Johnny Cash.
Only man who could do this song justice.
Couldn't agree more
“ “Layne?” I asked.
“Yes, honey. He's gone.”
It was a call I had expected for years but it destroyed me nonetheless.
His loss left a void I’ve felt every day since. I expect I always will.”

That’s it, I have to say it. Mark Lanegan is the goat. So underrated.. My favorite artist right now
Beautifully dark song made just a little darker today. RIP Mark.
Thanks Mark. I listen to Mad season still to this day. Your work with Layne was beyond comparison, and that both of you could tap into the human condition as you did is a rare talent. Everybody who loves Layne and AIC, look after yourselves, be strong, survive.
Rest in Peace, master! Mark Lanegan is an eternal giant!
2:26 is the kind of guy he was. He was famous but, not above others. The kinda guy who would sit down on the sidewalk with strangers to sign an autograph. How badly I wish I could have met him before he died.
40 seconds in and the hair on my arms standing on end, getting feelings... someone's with me.
Thank you for showing not only Layne but Mike as well. Much love and respect to Lanegan and Maggie and the MOP.
~ When we see this, could we all do a moment of silence. Thank you.
There is nobody that can cover this song. This starts and ends with Mark. He will forever be missed. What a talent.
Oh man, that pedal steel guitar is a real gut punch on this song. Fantastic cover.
It mimics Layne almost perfectly, and such an essential part of the song. Amazing
rest in peace to a legend named mark. immediately went to this video after i saw you passed… rest easy you genuine icon.
Mr. Lanergan elevates an already great song. You are missed, but we are privileged to have experienced your art.
RIP Layne, Mike, and now Mark. Thanks for everything.
Man... That Steel Guitar just adds a level on eeriness to the song that make your heart stop in it's tracks.
This cover hits different now. 😢 RIP Mark Lanegan.. 🙏🏼another great one gone too soon. 💔
Another beautiful Generation X voice signs off. Thank you Mark Lanegan. You will be missed.💔
Nutshell is my favourite AiC song and top 5 of all songs ever written, but I can never stand anybody else covering it. It never sounds good and all it does is make me wish for the original. Until this. Mark makes it work. Effortlessly.
Jar of Flies and Mad Season remain in my top albums. So soft and so not soft at the same time. So much underlying tragedy. Grunge was much more cerebral than mainstream gave it credit for.
