    In response to one of the comments below: It's true that Jerry wrote most of the AIC songs, but Layne wrote this song in particular. Both are (and were) extremely talented artists.

      actually as time went by layne wrote more songs and that almost half of their their songs were written by him.

    • @motorologist

      The lyrics only.. Layne was the sole music writer for only "Head Creeps" "Hate to Feel" and "Angry Chair".

    Will gave it his all. Closer than probably 99.9% of singers could get to Layne's performance of this song. But still not the same set up pipes. Layne was a one and only and I have yet to hear ANYone that can dupe his notes. Those 4 "I stay away's" are my most favorite sounds ever out of Layne's throat. Just the way he inflected differently each time - true artistry, no fear, and solid perfection. Having said all that, this gave me chills - Layne is proud!

  • @jd79evilone
    @jd79evilone 11 лет назад +11

    the studio version of this song has a very orchestral vibe with its layers but the way the orchestra was drowned out in this shows improper mic placement and pour acoustics. Will is no Layne and never will be but he killed on this. Will is a damn good vocalist and he works great in tandem with Jerry and it is a different vibe but more imprtantly it still sounds like Alice in Chains

    • @Richard-yk3cf

    William was not a part of the 2005 Tsunami Tribute. Pat Lachman of Damage Plan, along with Maynard James Keenan of Tool/A Perfect Circle etc..., Wes Scantlin of Puddle of Mudd, and of course Ann Wilson of Heart. William was asked to join the group in 2006 for "Decades Rock Live" a VH1 special and concert honoring Heart. Phil Anselmo also sang a couple songs. Alice in Chain's with William went on a "victory lap," tour starting in the late spring of 2006, and continued as response was great.
