    Jesus Christ this is interesting as hell. Unreal that chris would write such beautiful songs just based on titles and then take the risk of them not even finding those songs . And little did he know that a 12-13 year old me would rent this movie and hear "seasons " play in the background during that scene as the main male character walks alone down a street and I set upright from my bed with wide open eyes and said to myself "what the fuck is that !? This sounds amazing ." And years later , I'm no longer in a band , a solo artist , I use seasons as a go to when playing and singing covers . Chill bumps

    Cliff Poncier went from "Touch Me I'm Dick" to "Seasons" "Spoonman", "Nowhere But You" and "Flutter Girl"? He would have been praised in more places than just France and Belgium! Seriously though, this is such a great story! I first heard Seasons in 11th grade and I would not rest until I learned it. I figured it out, by ear, in one night and I was so proud of myself and it felt so good to play it that it just inspired me to continue learning and creating music. His creativity inspired my creativity for years and years.

    Wow so Andy Wood putting demo cassettes in stores inspired Jeff to do it for the movie with his own made up titles, which then Chris wrote songs for including Seasons and Spoonman. That is mindblowing.

    Great story. A very old one, which a lot of fans of both Chris Cornell and the movie Singles have been aware of for decades. I know I first read about the song Seasons background in a RS magazine article in the early-mid 90's. Never heard it told directly from the primary sources though, very cool. 😊

    As my favorite singer in any genre of music, the tragedy of it all still hasn't sunk in. He was obviously still passionate and hungry in his writing, which most artists with a lengthy successful career seem to lose! Depression runs rampant it seems! Please keep an eye on your friends and family, and try to talk to someone if you're feeling down! ✌✌✌

    i never cared much for latter day performances from chris because of the way his voice and singing changed, but this performance of Seasons made me realize that his older voice was still well-suited to a song like this in particular. kinda has me wishin he went for a more stripped down folky lo-fi old man thing after Euphoria Mourning rather than audioslave or still trying to belt out all the old hits and make polished sounding new shit with a cracked voice.
