Stumbled on Down in a Hole and I’m on his 4th video here now. His originals are great too and the ambience of his vids are simple and refreshing. Beautiful stuff River, keep publishing more ✌️
Dude, AMAZING cover of my most favorite Audioslave song. I like your flair to it, you should try to add the second C/G to Am progression though, you play the first C/G > Am but then go G >Am when you sing "heels". That particular C/G>Am phrasing is why it's my absolute favorite Audioslave song, it add so much depth and character to get that bump and spirit.
I was so stoked to see you put this up. Your range is just within mine and I'm going to be singing this with reckless abandon! Thank you for sharing with us!
Man, you've got a great voice. Keep em coming! This is my favorite Cornell song. You killed my favorite AiC song, Down in a Hole, and now you're killin this one! Bravo, sir.
I'm a massive cornell fan, saw every concert , soundgarden, Audioslave & solo in uk 🇬🇧 London since 1992, done a good , put your stamp on it, brave move , but one that works
Amazing cover of an amazing song done by one of the greatest singer and song writers ever imo, and you did an awesome job taking Chris's song and doing it justice, keep going dude....
very nice man.. im in the same boat as you as far as playin and singin on here and you inspire me brother..youre a pleasure to listen to..from one world jester to another ..keep it going and stay strong...thank you
Loved this, have listened to at least hundred times and tried to play it and sing it as well. I can't do it nearly as well as you but you're an inspiration! Thanks. Loved Down in a Hole as well.
This is such a great song. Thanks for posting.. I used to do it a half a step down in the last band. I been covering this song for a while in standard tuning. Eventually worked my way up lol. The guys in the band love when i sing it so i take it im doing it good enough to pump them up. I get a little intimidated every time though and i dont always perform it unless im really feeling it from my soul and i can pool the strength. Sometimes the guys say "lets do highway" and im like " idk man".. Sometime im like "lets freaakin do it". I have to call on Chris for the permission to use the power. Its very tough and to reach as deep as i do trying not to hold back one note and give the song and Chris Cornell all its justice. Maybe il post a video on my channel soon.
ive been trying to sing this song for months and struggling (like always) and watched this video and was like wtf. and then i realized your a step down and this really made it sound better!
I'm happy to hear song suggestions. Maybe I'll get to them sometime. Let me know down below! Cheers, River.
Thanks, man. I haven't heard Mosquito Song. I'll definitely give it a listen! @@ookadoo
If you like STP you could try out Pretty Penny it is a great song!
STP “Big Empty”
I'll bet you'd do a really amazing Creep, by Radiohead.
Mark Lanegan -Strange Religion
I went right from Down In A Hole to this. This guys is brilliant
Same… damn he’s good
Same haha

Ditto!
Insane!!!
Man I miss Cornell. This got me 95% of the way there. Beautiful.
His hit hard because he held it together for so long, and he shared so much with us.
@@hillsofappalachia Gesundheit
95% is about right. Dammit, I miss Chris.
Brother, don’t stop! Your voice has something most people can only hope for. Gritty and smooth at the same time.
Yeah, the cracking when he goes higher
I have it too I've been told, but I'm tone deaf and can't hold a note to save my life. Just discovered this guy, and now I know who I need to emulate.
What a beautiful performance dude, damn.
Thank you for bringing me here Glock, just made my Saturday.
Glock sent me, and goddamn I’m glad he did. Bravo.
Thanks for sharing this beautiful song with us Glock
One of my favorite Cornell songs ❤
