    ABOUT…
    I am Rebecca and I am one heck of a passionate vocal coach/singer/songwriter/impressionist/health/fitness/self- improvement/anything that makes me smile!! I love anything vocal/singing related and geek out on it every day. I want to motivate and inspire others to follow their dreams…corny? Well maybe but it’s true. So what’s motivating me?? I had a huge tumour removed summer 2017 and my ovaries and fallopian tubes. The tumour was the size of a 20 week baby!! However, despite not being able to walk for a couple of weeks, and feeling generally awful…. It has made me create and do what I love! It wasn’t an easy time but I won’t let fear dictate my life. I didn’t think ‘why me’, there are plenty of horrific issues people have to deal with…it’s not always smooth sailing. It’s true when you hear, ‘Life is short’, the crazy thing is, I am glad it happened…I appreciate life even more and practice gratitude everyday…It’s so easy to get caught up with the little things…and I do sometimes, but look at the bigger picture, will it matter in a year or two…?
    Also thank you for all your support. It means a lot.

    Cornell on the song:
    When we started rehearsing the songs, I had pulled out "Hunger Strike" and I had this feeling it was just kind of gonna be filler, it didn't feel like a real song. Eddie was sitting there kind of waiting for a (Mookie Blaylock) rehearsal and I was singing parts, and he kind of humbly-but with some balls-walked up to the mic and started singing the low parts for me because he saw it was kind of hard. We got through a couple choruses of him doing that and suddenly the light bulb came on in my head, this guy's voice is amazing for these low parts. History wrote itself after that, that became the single.[4]

      Eddie had just arrived in Seattle a few days before. This was eddies first recorded album, or major album. I’m not a big history buff, just adding a few tidbits. While recording this Pearl Jam , Ahmet, realized they had a top notch singer. The album was rereleased after Ten and Badmotorfinger hit big.

      Justin Stewart I’m 42 now. My first kid (son) was born in ‘97, named after Layne. Chris, Eddie, Layne, Scott, even Kurt Cobain actually had a fantastic singing voice. It was an awesome time for music. Makes me realize what Beatles fans missed when they broke up. It was just a snapshot in musical history but it seemed like it would last forever. It was the absolute peak of the instrument player era before digital sampling simply took over the airwaves. Never to be repeated.

    It's interesting to note that Eddie's deeper voice almost serves the same function as a drone on a set of pipes to Chris' higher and more variable tone in parts of this song. Chris' voice works to create the framework of the song while Eddie's voice serves to fill in the gaps and smooth it all over. This song really is a fine example of two distinct voices working to complement each other well rather than competing with one another...

      I would argue that Andrew Wood was the "godfather" of Seattle grunge through the band Malfunkshun. Along with his brother Kevin. Their band formed in 1980 whereas Soundgarden didn't form until 1984.
      It was Andrew Woods death that led to members of Mother Love Bone (A. Woods second band) to search for Eddie Vedder (at the suggestion of Jack Irons) and form Pearl Jam or Mookie Blaylock if you will. Eddie is basically auditioning on this album for Pearl Jam. Cornell put the album together in remembrance of Wood while Eddie was coming along..

    Lady, the vocal is “I’m goin’ hungry” as in I am going hungry, not “I’m not hungry” as you sang.
    You were correct about Vedder not even being supposed to be on this track. He flew up from San Diego to try out for Pearl Jam, ended up hanging out at the Temple of the Dog recording session (they recorded mixed and produced the entire album in 15 days as a band!) and hear Cornell having a difficult time doing the lower register vocals and just filled in perfectly.

    Back when they recorded this Chris was already well-established with Soundgarden while Pearl Jam was barely starting out (they were still called Mookie Blaylock), and Eddie, coming from San Diego (originally from Chicago), was kind of an outsider because the Seattle musicians all knew each other and were a close-knit community, so the fact that Chris invited him to duet on this song and made a point of becoming friends with him and inviting to hang out and do stuff sent a powerful message to the community that one of the coolest guys accepted the new guy, which helped Eddie a lot in the early days. When you said that you could feel the respect between them in the song, I thought it was interesting because at this point Chris was already kind of a Rock Star, while Eddie was an unknown singer starting out. It was still a couple of years until he became "Eddie Vedder the singer of Pearl Jam."

      I would follow this up by saying it was released and the video debuted on MTV before Pearl Jam's first single was released in 1991. It was re-released and gained new popularity in the summer of '92 after both bands had blown up. But I was absolutely enthralled by both singers when they debuted it on Headbanger's Ball of all places. Also, Mookie Blaylock was just Pearl Jam's first name. They changed it when the signed to their label. Not that you said different, but if I didn't know better, I would think he was in a different band altogether based on the comment.
