I'm a Christian. My faith is good. This song hits my heart hard. I just loved this song, either thro it put me in tears. But this song is real. You have to choose a side. And I guess being or trying to be the best you can be.
I met Chris shortly before he passed.. he was an amazing person to meet and have a conversation with. Me and my friend had the opportunity to go backstage on the higher truth tour. Me and Chris talked for over 20 minutes. He answered every question I’ve ever wanted to ask him, and he took the time to sign my vinyl record / and poster I had, and took some photos as well. Such a cool and genuine down to earth great guy. I’m happy I got the opportunity to meet my hero!! RIP CC! Your music is still a part of my every day life and something I will always cherish.
This song is the definition of foreshadowing. If not, I don’t know what is. You write something like this and how can people not see what was to come? RIP Cornell.
Sadly due to modern society he cannot get it. Modern society loves Pop :(. So pop music gets grammy. It is sad to see that Chris is not being recognized as the best musician.
@@mynameisalsojohn That is also true but I wanted him to have a main stream level of recognition. In India most of them never heard of Chris Cornell. It is sad to see that people liking Toxic music more than this.
Man, what a beautiful song! He should still be here singing his heart out and creating the music he loved so much. I love hearing new music, but at the same time I feel tremendous sadness knowing he is no longer here, just gracing the earth with his presence. I just miss him. 💔
I'm crying here... And still can't believe that he's gone... Life is shocking sometimes. At least we can still listen to his songs and his wonderful voice...
I heard the first 5 seconds and i started crying.... I've never cried because of a song before, never. This one did it. And when Chris hit that first note I felt it in my soul... His music has impacted me a lot... It's hard to believe that he is gone sometimes...
Joshua I did the same thing when I got 5 seconds into to the song I was crying like a fucking Baby , the lyrics at the beginning are haunting as to what he was going through and maybe his death maybe bad can bring some good. I feel there is a message there. Its is still so sad on many levels but today we were given a gift new music something untouched and unheard . so today for me Chris is still with us!! :)
I don't believe that I'll ever hear this kind of voice again within my lifetime. I'm 50. If it means that I pass and hear him again singing while he's alive, then I'd feel pretty content.
Thank God for this notification, I really don't know If I get happy for the new song or sad because he ain't here no more... RIP Chris Cornell #NoOneSingLikeYouAnymore
And since he recorded and mixed it entirely by himself there's a chance he played all the instruments on it, including the lead guitar possibly. He often played all the stuff on his demos.
When Elvis died it was sad, when Kurt & Andrew died ,again it was sad..when Freddie Mercury died I wept ..cried for a week..it was how the media tormented this dying man that got to me more than anything ..then Our Sweet Layne died, that was so tragic just so senseless ..then ofcourse Mike Starr . And I forgot to mention Scott Weiland....that too was.tragic. 2017 rolls around and we lose Chris Cornell ..it's now close to 2022 and I'm still mourning Chris Cornell ..it's as if a family member or close close friend died..I wonder if Chris had any idea of the impact he and his music had on the world ..? ...Did he know how much we loved him and still love him today ? ...I'm not sure what exactly took place that awful May evening ..will probably never know . I do know this however..someone somehow. someway .missed something ..allowing him to slip through the cracks of mental illness or foul play..or maybe medical error by prescribed medication..but someone fumbled and we lost a musical legend...and talent that we will never see nor hear the likes of again. .to me therein liess the tragedy ....May the Good Fly Free ..peace .
You can look up the autopsy report and he had no amount of drugs in his system that wasn't prescribed to him. I also believe he made it so far in his life, and he was a pioneer of the grunge scene, and to do that while away from his family in a hotel room is an insane accusation. I've also read the laptop he had and cell phone went missing after his death and the body guard he had took off for a month to New Zealand. To think he was still making music with powerful messages that meant something to him and doing concert shows tells me he still had the fight in him. RIP
Me too I feel so hopeless and life has fallen into pieces and I have no family I have nobody , I'm hanging on by a thread , thank god fir music it's all that's keeping me alive .
What a Beautiful Song. We're Still Fighting For Justice For You. We Love And Miss You So Much. It's So Sad That This Is You're Last Song. Thank You Chris Cornell. You're Beautiful. A Legend. And The Best Vocalist Ever. Justice for Chris Cornell.
I'm sorry Chris. You are missed and will forever *be* missed. Even if you felt low at times your music spoke to millions upon millions of people. You're the voice I don't have, the words that I can't even combine. You were *the* one. Thank you Chris. Fly high brother
What a voice, most artist lose their voice in age but Chris' voice aged like wine as well as his appearance the guy looked like he was in his 30s. Even Eddie's voice fades sometimes but not Chris...a true talented man he was & with his music & live performance recordings, he'll always live on through our eyes and ears😭❤❤
Sometimes Chris would have his bad days on stage.... but then he could always come back and surprise the hell out of me... sounding better than ever still.... its true...
This tune grabs me by my soul ,my core and penetrates it with a sweet vengeance that only Chris Cornell the musical genius can bestow ..long live this man's music, his legacy ,his spirit, his imprint on the universe's heart and soul..I miss him with such diligence ,his absence is felt on a daily basis ..every day that God grants me to live , I take time out to listen to his music..what an arsenal of musical phenomenon he left ..I use the term arsenal because his music wrestles ,and pierces my very soul..loudlove and ✌️..
Sometimes bad can do some good. Maybe thats what he wished for all of us. Hoping his final act could inspire some light and hope in this screwed up world
Well, no, That's what GOD wishes for us! Why is there pain and heartache in the world? How could love exist without hate? Comfort does not bring perfection. We do the most growing in distress. We seek for answers why relationships ended, why loved ones passed, why we feel pain in our hearts and are persecuted when we are trying to be good. Well, sometimes Bad can do some Good. There is no other way to move you in our sinful state towards God, unless there is pain, hurt, misfortune.
This is a testament to how amazing Chris was. This song has so much soul/hurt. I’m sad he’s gone, but he will never be forgotten. Let’s shine the light in these dark times!
This is so, so sad! Lyrics are.. just like he is saying goodbye, and that he'll be ok, and we too should! I miss you so much man! Can't stop the tears! Especially every time I see something new from you! May God give you the kingdom of Heaven!
If ever their was a showcase for his amazing vocal talent, this is it. Every note that’s reached, every beautiful crescendo that’s lightly touched before floating away to the ethereal planes. What a stunning legacy to have left on this world!
@scott denja we are his voice now. We gotta continue the good he was working on. The video of this song with his son in it has many clues and i think he knew they were coming for him. Truth will be revealed someday.
I was just a teen when he died but I listened to his music like gospel, it shook me to my core to hear he passed. His music got me through awful points in my life and helped me to change and find my viewpoints on life and love. Been learning the words to all his songs and try to sing like him. I hope if there's an afterlife, I'd be lucky to meet you, Chris. Rock on
This song brings me to tears in sadness and joy from what I feel from his music. It's so deep and I really don't have the words to explain how much I feel from his music❤️💙🧡💛💚
I have fallen in love with every single song of his, and this one is no different. His voice, his lyrics, his music have mesmerized me ever since I was little, and his work has been an integral part of my life for so long. I'm so glad this song was released. He will truly live forever.
+American Nightmare.. Every word u typed is the same sentiment and the way I feel.. However, CC touched my innermost being..Chris, you are still here in spirit.. just a different plane.. xxx
His vocals on this, (like at :11 when he sings “beside”) are just chillingly beautiful. When he posthumously won the Grammy for this recording, a part of me thought it was likely awarded more out of respect and tribute. But then you listen to it, and you realize it was fully deserved.
I don't think that many people know just how good Higher Ground was. It took me a long time to really get into it, for a number of reasons, but when I did it's still a treasure trove and I'm still finding new magic every time I listen to it.
A lot of suicidal people think what they are about to do is the best thing for their loved ones... they think they are such a f**k up and burden, that people will be better off with them gone. It's so tragically misguided. This song just screams that mindset to me... if anyone is feeling this way, just know having you around is so so so much better then never having another second with you. You are loved, you are not alone. You have so much more to experience, so many more wonders to explore. Don't take the gift of yourself from every else. We need you.

We've Seen The Crime Scene. It was Horrific What Chris Cornell Went Through. Fighting for his Life. I'm just so Sad. Thank You. Hopefully Someone Will Tell the Truth One Day. Justice for Chris Cornell
Wow!!! I'm 38 years old and I've never had a song and singer make me cry with a song until I heard this. Simply amazing. And his voice sounds so haunting he's exposing pedo gate from the grave. RIP CHRIS CORNELL WE LOVE AND MISS YOU,. LOVE, HUMANITY
I pray these people will still be exposed and get what they deserve. We may lose more people who try to speak up, but I believe it will eventually happen.
Tactical--Me, too, man! I just turned 45 the other day--lots of my heroes that shaped me musically (Layne, Dime, Vinnie, Cornell, etc...) are gone. I've listened to this song 5 times now. I'm the singer in my band--if someone asked would you cut your arm off to sound like this, I'd say, "Where's the saw?"
Chris was an inspiration to myself and so many others. So many conflicting feelings while listening to this after his passing. Nevertheless his voice lives on. RIP Chris. Nobody sings like you anymore...
To hurtful to hear right now.... He isn't here to discuss the songs...the meanings. The way only he ''Chris" could. How he'd discuss an album 💔 In the coming years I wonder what will be released and would he have wanted it that way..... I pray he's at peace..what a sweet beautiful soul! 🙏
I Agree with what you're saying. People have their Own Opinions of What Chris Cornell is Really saying. They Take it The Wrong Way. Wish Chris Cornell was Still Here to Explain. And I Have No Doubt He's At Peace. Justice for Chris Cornell
standing beside an open grave your fate decided your life erased your final hour has come today lit by the fire of your temple's burning you are a child and so was I now you're a hunter but I am a lion and i will cut you down like I've done somany times but sometimes bad can do some good sometimes bad can do some good and i heard you say that flesh sells by the pound when blood is raining down it cuts a deep river and I'm diving now shine a light down ontothe earth and shake this gold dust out out of the dirt no saints beside me and no prayers to guide me sometimes bad can do some good rain down heaven is falling I've chosen a side and I will show no pity and spare no lives for those who try me let it be understood sometimes bad can do some good
I wonder if this song preceeded By Crooked Steps and Cornell opted to use those lyrics for Soundgarden instead, thinking this track would never be released.
It is very possible. Apparently this song has been unreleased for some time, and has only seen the light of day now because Josh Brolin reminded Vicky Cornell of it's existence.
Masterful words by a man who spent his life creating masterpieces. You will never be forgotten sir. Thank you for touching so many souls on Earth and healing them. Wish we could have helped you heal too. Gone too soon. RIP, Sir. God must be having a nice time having you around
@@angeladavis1170 Hate to imagine that someone could Chris' life. Would not like to suggest it at all but if indeed it happened then we need justice for Chris. My heart goes out for Toni and all his other kids and even Vicky (if she wasn't responsible ofcourse, but I hate to think that she should do such a thing)
@@tishya714 Well If you Research The Fact's. Not Suicide. Chris Cornell was Murdered. I Feel No Sympathy for Evil Satanists Witch Wife. She Trashed Chris Before He Murder And After. All about Chris's Money nothing More. I Give Great Respect to Lily Cornell. She's Got Guts She's Out There Taking Up for Her Dad. The other two kids who knows if there even Chris's. VK is A Evil Satanists Witch and her whole Coven of Evil People Who Surround Her. I'm Sorry for Lily Cornell Cause VK only Wanted The other Two kids around Chris. Justice for Chris Cornell.
@@angeladavis1170 it breaks my heart to think of these things. I just want Chris to rest in peace and if indeed there was any wrongdoing then we surely need justice for Chris
@@tishya714 Thank You. If half these so called Fans would look up the Crime Scene. And all the Blood in the Bathroom Where Chris fought for his life. And to think that This Gracious Humble Magical Beautiful Man didn't Deserve a Proper Investigation. It's Just Blow's My Mind. Payoffs money I know Chris Cornell didn't kill his self. He was Murdered. And yes Those Involved will PAY One Day I know Chris Cornell is at Peace Now. Never Be Another Chris Cornell.
Man, I'm still in shock Chris is gone. He had the King Midas touch when it came to being an overall talented musician and family man. The opening organ and the lyrics are so somber and bittersweet. For some reason the lyrics remind me of outlaws and the lawmen who go after them (The movie Heat comes to mind and Billy the Kid/Part Garrett).
Took me until Friday night to steel myself to finally listen to this song. I was so looking forward to it being released, but actually pushing play ended up being hard. Miss him so much. Of course, I've listened to the song at least a dozen times since then. I love it. No one sings like you any more. 💙

If you think you're bad, you're not. Only good people stop to question themselves. Just do good. Give others sanctuary.
God, I swear Chris Cornell just has one of the most emotionally gripping voices that ever graced the Earth...
we all witnessed something more real and beatiful than life itself imo
I would have to agree
I'm a Christian. My faith is good. This song hits my heart hard. I just loved this song, either thro it put me in tears. But this song is real. You have to choose a side. And I guess being or trying to be the best you can be.

I beg to differ: Myles Kennedy
Arshed Fazal nah Myles Kennedy doesn't have that deep voice of Chris Cornell
@@BukanIbuMu of course it's not as identical but I'd say he has equal range and similar snarl akin to cornell's rasp in his voice

no one deserves that grammy like you do - RIP
Sadly due to modern society he cannot get it. Modern society loves Pop :(. So pop music gets grammy. It is sad to see that Chris is not being recognized as the best musician.

Well We Know Who He's Talking about. Justice for Chris Cornell
Who?
@@angeladavis1170 , I hope and pray that we will get the truth one day. #JusticeforChris.
@@cele8910 Me Too. I don't like to be Mean and Curse These Ignorant People Out. But I'll be Damed if I'm going to Let Them Say Chris Cornell Killed his Self. It's Not True. We've Seen The Crime Scene. It was Horrific What Chris Cornell Went Through. Fighting for his Life. I'm just so Sad. Thank You. Hopefully Someone Will Tell the Truth One Day. Justice for Chris Cornell
Won The Grammy!!!
He should have gotten so many grammys in his career
Wow!!! I'm 38 years old and I've never had a song and singer make me cry with a song until I heard this. Simply amazing. And his voice sounds so haunting he's exposing pedo gate from the grave. RIP CHRIS CORNELL WE LOVE AND MISS YOU,.
LOVE,
HUMANITY
I pray these people will still be exposed and get what they deserve. We may lose more people who try to speak up, but I believe it will eventually happen.
Tactical--Me, too, man! I just turned 45 the other day--lots of my heroes that shaped me musically (Layne, Dime, Vinnie, Cornell, etc...) are gone. I've listened to this song 5 times now. I'm the singer in my band--if someone asked would you cut your arm off to sound like this, I'd say, "Where's the saw?"
This "pedo gate, pizza gate BS" has got to stop. He wasn't murdered. Let him rest, man!
@@mat11trick he was murdered get your head outta the sand.
Who the hell dislikes this song like wtf... R.I.P Chris Cornell thank you for all the inspiration!
Nunca te voy a superar Chris
Chris was an inspiration to myself and so many others. So many conflicting feelings while listening to this after his passing. Nevertheless his voice lives on. RIP Chris. Nobody sings like you anymore...
Every song that Chris Cornell wrote and sang are masterpieces but this takes it to a very, very higher level
I have goosebumps...
RIP CC...🎸 YOU ARE MISSED!!! 🎸 MUCH LOVE TO EVERYONE...
You'll always live in my heart.
Legend never dies
To hurtful to hear right now....
He isn't here to discuss the songs...the meanings. The way only he ''Chris" could. How he'd discuss an album 💔 In the coming years I wonder what will be released and would he have wanted it that way.....
I pray he's at peace..what a sweet beautiful soul! 🙏
Rachel Begley i've been feeling this way too. I almost dont want to even listen to this song. But i am. It is bittersweet.
I Agree with what you're saying. People have their Own Opinions of What Chris Cornell is Really saying. They Take it The Wrong Way. Wish Chris Cornell was Still Here to Explain. And I Have No Doubt He's At Peace. Justice for Chris Cornell
Dear Rachel, your reply is comming from the heart.
Dear Rachel
Let me introduce you to a new project honoring Chris legacy.

Never cried for someone I've never met till Chris! RIP ❤️
Beautiful. 💔 I believe he knew what time it was with 'them'.
I believe you're right. Better yet, you're right. You have such beautiful eyes.
Chester and Chris 😔😔👊👊🙏💙💙 best voices i have ever heard
standing beside an open grave
your fate decided
your life erased
your final hour
has come today
lit by the fire
of your temple's burning
you are a child
and so was I
now you're a hunter
but I am a lion
and i will cut you down
like I've done somany times
but sometimes
bad can do some good
sometimes
bad can do some good
and i heard you say that
flesh sells by the pound
when blood is raining down
it cuts a deep river
and I'm diving
now shine a light down
ontothe earth
and shake this gold dust out
out of the dirt
no saints beside me
and no prayers to guide me
sometimes
bad can do some good
rain down heaven is falling
I've chosen a side
and I will show no pity
and spare no lives
for those who try me
let it be understood
sometimes
bad can do some good
Thanks
"Flesh," not "Flash.
First words in had me crying 😭
@@mrkm7374 Oh We Are. Very Closely. Justice for Chris Cornell.

What an amazing Extrodinary song,so much heart! R, I,p,✌️👍🤘
I love the By Crooked Steps reference in this song. Sometimes a lyric is so good it's worth using twice. RIP Chris, I miss you daily.
I wonder if this song preceeded By Crooked Steps and Cornell opted to use those lyrics for Soundgarden instead, thinking this track would never be released.
It is very possible. Apparently this song has been unreleased for some time, and has only seen the light of day now because Josh Brolin reminded Vicky Cornell of it's existence.
@@GriefHammer it sounds prefabricated...i mean how the song has seen the light of day.
R.I.P legend 😭💔
Masterful words by a man who spent his life creating masterpieces. You will never be forgotten sir. Thank you for touching so many souls on Earth and healing them. Wish we could have helped you heal too. Gone too soon. RIP, Sir. God must be having a nice time having you around
Justice for Chris Cornell
@@angeladavis1170 Hate to imagine that someone could Chris' life. Would not like to suggest it at all but if indeed it happened then we need justice for Chris. My heart goes out for Toni and all his other kids and even Vicky (if she wasn't responsible ofcourse, but I hate to think that she should do such a thing)
@@tishya714 Well If you Research The Fact's. Not Suicide. Chris Cornell was Murdered. I Feel No Sympathy for Evil Satanists Witch Wife. She Trashed Chris Before He Murder And After. All about Chris's Money nothing More. I Give Great Respect to Lily Cornell. She's Got Guts She's Out There Taking Up for Her Dad. The other two kids who knows if there even Chris's. VK is A Evil Satanists Witch and her whole Coven of Evil People Who Surround Her. I'm Sorry for Lily Cornell Cause VK only Wanted The other Two kids around Chris. Justice for Chris Cornell.
@@angeladavis1170 it breaks my heart to think of these things. I just want Chris to rest in peace and if indeed there was any wrongdoing then we surely need justice for Chris
@@tishya714 Thank You. If half these so called Fans would look up the Crime Scene. And all the Blood in the Bathroom Where Chris fought for his life. And to think that This Gracious Humble Magical Beautiful Man didn't Deserve a Proper Investigation. It's Just Blow's My Mind. Payoffs money
I know Chris Cornell didn't kill his self. He was Murdered. And yes Those Involved will PAY One Day
I know Chris Cornell is at Peace Now. Never Be Another Chris Cornell.
At 1:53 Cornell starts with some backup vocals... Amazing to put it lightly.
Loud Love 💖
I think timing was Chris Cornell's greatest asset.
Omg!!! Talk about timing!!!! Wow
??
2years ago... 2 minutes 💜 ago. Still hear 🎶
Funny how a wound can bleed again......when you hear his voice it’s like he’s still here, but then you realise......
My friends laugh when i sing his songs no sings like him anymore. Love and respect chris rip
too many feels right now listening to this beautiful song. God I miss Chris soo much, his angelic voice is like no other
Man, I'm still in shock Chris is gone. He had the King Midas touch when it came to being an overall talented musician and family man. The opening organ and the lyrics are so somber and bittersweet. For some reason the lyrics remind me of outlaws and the lawmen who go after them (The movie Heat comes to mind and Billy the Kid/Part Garrett).
Took me until Friday night to steel myself to finally listen to this song. I was so looking forward to it being released, but actually pushing play ended up being hard. Miss him so much. Of course, I've listened to the song at least a dozen times since then. I love it. No one sings like you any more. 💙
