    My favorite shot is the kid singing "country love" at 1:50 and just grooving away, it fits so perfectly into the video!

      What part? You likely would have been a kid or a teenager at the time. Wait a minute are you the little kid singing "country love" at 1:50?

    Had a sound of their own. Huge and I mean Fn huge in the 90s. If Edwin and them didn't split. They'd be 10x as popular as they were.

    It's pretty good, the wine
    The way that we look at
    Ten to eight in the morning
    Just talking, still awake in
    Dawn and dew drinking, thinking
    Always...
    Remembering the laughs, the time
    We got high for seven days down
    In New Orleans and it seemed like
    No one else knew we were just
    The moon and sun in fog before the
    Heat burned it away and took
    The sleep from tired heads on
    Beds of reaching hands, of road trip
    Breath and long tall freedom
    And then you long
    For the days of trippin' down
    The long road just reading the
    Signs that show you the way to
    A higher place you meditate to
    Feel the quiet of the earth
    That was back
    When we used to be alright
    Another shame, the way
    The city smells worse on
    A hot day in August...2 PM
    Right before us good movers
    Move and us shakers break
    Our hearts getting home to
    Country love and the garbage
    Dump by the dried up creek
    Near the forest that once had life
    And then I turn on the news
    Somebody shoot me soon
    I'm tired of over heating, falling
    Quick to bending knees and
    Broken veins, of always needing
    Faith to get to shore and break
    All the vows I've made
    No time or presence
    Of mind to wonder why
    No time for questions of
    Why I wonder why
    Something's wrong...again
    The noise shakes the ground
    There's a rage in
    The crowd and I'm a face
    In the crowd, what's your name?
    You're sinkin' in the sand
    Standing next to me, a river
    Running through your pants, afraid
    To trust me when my hands
    Are helping you

      @CollyDoo 2 года назад +1

      He wanted his own 'creative direction' back in the late 90s. He had a band called "Edwin and the Pressure " check them out

    The drummer from soundgarden is leagues above the talent level of the other members of soundgarden _(although maybe Cornell's singing for the songs that his voice 'works' on comes close, but then again he does end up singing things not suited for his voice sometimes, like in some Audioslave gigs)._ I Mother Earth (especially the instruments) are an exceptional talent level as if they are all the soundgarden drummer's league. It's not just "widdley fast" impressive music but actually danceable catchy simultaneously (and not pop).
    IME (Like a Girl) _"My mind erased before I had time to waste my afteroon."_ pertaining to Eclipse, Christ, as of Blind Melon (I Wonder), _"they ripped away my memories."_

      You know Chris Cornell wrote almost all the guitar in soundgarden? Not just a singer

    Amazing band other than Rush I think I Mother Earth was the most technically musically talented Canadian band and most of it rested on the shoulders of the drummer who wrote most of their music
