After a few listens I changed my mind. Black is a song thats been with me since its release. You dont hear “Black”. You feel it. You can feel it. She did do it perfectly.
@@snoozieboi I dont hate it. Its the best cover of a Pearl Jam song ive ever heard. It just took a few listens for me to really get the feel for it. It is a beautiful rendition for sure.
*I know someday you’ll have a beautiful life. I know you’ll be a star in somebody else’s sky, but why can’t it be mine.* those are probably the heaviest lyrics about heartache you can ever hear.
I played this song on repeat for a girl named Misty Hoshaw in1995 when I was 15. I've grown up now, but everytime I hear this song I still feel the crushing loss of the day we broke up. It's such a magical and lonely kind of nostalgia. Thank you.
Thank you for this. Black was one of my father's favorite songs, and recently he passed away due to corona virus infection. I only wish he could hear this masterpiece
It starts out... the music. That single note on the piano. And that voice. My GOD that voice... from another time. And then the rest of the instruments. And at first you think "okay, this is an interesting rendition" and lift a single eyebrow as it continues. Intriguing. By the start of the chorus you're invested. Okay, I'll bite. What gives? The cymbal taps and the strings, and that heavenly voice. And as Cortine grabs you and won't let go for the end of the first round of the chorus and the hint of power is gone in a rush for the quiet of the bass and piano note plunks. And then the angel comes back. Walks next to you. It's okay now. Walk with me? Oh wait... twisted thoughts that spin.. round my head? What is this? This... maelstrom of emotion... where are we going?! Again?! My heart! And it builds. And builds. The vibrato. The love gone bad! Tattooed all I see! All that I ammmm.... and quiet again. Doo-doo-doot-dooo, dooo-doot dooo.... wait. Here we go again! A star... in somebody else's sky! WHY?! WHY DID YOU LEAVE ME?! And suddenly it's all over... standing alone again on the beach of life while the roiling emotion of ocean retreats once again. Thank you PMJ and Cortnie for the ride. Absolutely exquisite.
@@MrSottho Hurt is a Nine Inch Nails cover if you didnt know. Theres a live version performed by them thats on a different level. Live beside you in time i think is the name.
I've watched all the postmodern jukebox videos. This is the best one. They're all good. Some better than others. But this one, this one's phenomenal. And the singer is outstanding.
Amen. I listened to the first 30 seconds then ran into the other room to tell my wife, "Stop what you're doing, and come listen to this." I've never done that for a song before. Incredible.
This song is one of the hidden gems of the Grunge era. PMJ, you've taken that gem and polished it to a magnificently melancholy sparkle for a new generation. Heartache never sounded so good. Thank you...be safe, keep warm, stay cool.
@jjwankenobi I do love this rendition as well. Since you seem fond of the bittersweet combo of heartache and awesome musical talent like myself, I recommend you watch (if you haven't already) The Drug in Me is You by Falling in Reverse (2011?) And then check out their latest rendition of it titled The Drug in Me is Reimagined (2020?). I bawled the first 20 times I watched it probably and I'm not a crier at all. I recommend watching them both in that order so you can fully appreciate it and the evolution of Ronnie Radke the lead singer.
This is one of those songs where you're like "DON'T f**k with my song man it's too close to me".... But this rendition man... blew me away like the first time i heard the original...
That's because this version expresses the sadness of the original, but not the anger. The original is seething this is lamenting. That's why it invokes such a different reaction.
Um ma’am, no. You gotta warn people about the emotional rollercoaster here. I’m smiling and crying rewinding and crying again. My spirit shoved me out the way just to listen to this!!!!
That “All ill be” is just perfect. It really is a beautiful cover. This is a Masterpiece. A true work of Art. The first chorus grabs you and its over. That “All ill be” though,,,,,Perfection.
This was absolutely delightful to listen to. As a Pearl Jam fan, this is just..beautiful. My gosh..her voice wraps around the notes like a warm blanket and the arrangement is top notch. I love the strings. Bravo to all!
this song always makes me think of my daughter - I lost her in may 2019....she had a little room in our basement that she used as an art studio....now it just has sheets of empty canvas
I can see Eddie's smirk while singing this in 94 glimpsing at this smirk in front of the crowd of 6 figures in the cold air without a single person cold from the inner warmth each of their hearts were over flowing with.
I needed to watch this 4 or 5 times. Not cos I didnt like it, but for its beauty to sink in. Been a Pearl Jam fanatic since about 94'-95'. Black is my favorite song of all time. PJM and Cortnie you are all fabulous. Bravo.
Black Pearl Jam Sheets of empty canvas Untouched sheets of clay Were laid spread out before me As her body once did All five horizons Revolved around her soul As the earth to the sun Now the air I tasted and breathed Has taken a turn Oh, and all I taught her was everything Oh, I know she gave me all that she wore And now my bitter hands Chafe beneath the clouds Of what was everything Oh, the pictures have All been washed in black Tattooed everything I take a walk outside I'm surrounded by some kids at play I can feel their laughter So, why do I sear?

Yeah... we who were 20s in 1990s headbangin & stage divin to Pearl Jam now around 50s listen to this while sippin coffee by the window watching the rain drops to the ground... reminiscing old loveship that didn't work... we just can smile... or shed a tear, because we still live on.
My goodness... This song has so much history with me. I stopped listening to it so long ago. I cannot describe how hard this hits even this far removed from that history. But it is now someday, and I do have that beautiful life. Fantastic job, truly. This is catharsis for me.
I did not think this song could be any more heartbreaking and depressing--it was already a "rip my heart out and stomp all over it before burning it." But wow--you managed to make it even more so--and I mean that in a good way. I can watch this over and over and over and not be depressed!
Wow, that made me cry tears of sadness. I never really paid attention to the lyrics of this song until I heard it sung like this. My compliments to the whole PMJ ensemble on this one😉👍
😮 não gostei ñ.. adoro orquestra!... mas ñ gostei da escolha da levada vocal.. tô pensando como uma galera tão gabaritada conseguiu estragar um rock tão bonito.. rsrs só uma opinião irreverente, viu. Perfeita é a original mesmo!
I'm not even sad for anything in my life, but I'm crying just for the emotion this performance brings. Like watching a movie, we can see the whole story here through the character's POV and feel as they feel. Mind-blowing.
Scott Bradlee deserves a ton of credit for the awesome arrangement of this version. I typically don't like people messing with Pearl Jam's songs but this gets an exception due to how great Cortnie is..
Im listing over and over again.. This song is beautiful but the soul and pain this lady show sings makes me cry. Beautiful singing from youre soul.. And the band whauw u guys and girls amazing ❤️
This song reminds me of my brother in law. He was like my brother, met him at 8 years old and he introduced me to Pearl Jam. He passed away in January from COVID-19 and he was only 47. He was such a happy person full of life.
I love Eddie Vedder's music, his voice and emotional power. However I can never understand a word he sings. Thank you for this great performance complete with words!!! Beautiful job, everyone!!!! '
I am amazed with this performance. Black is one of my favorites songs and Cortnie Frazier just nail it with this incredible performance. I got chills here. Please, do more rock and metal songs, I love it. And, if's not too much, I'd like to request songs from Evanescence, specially Imaginary 🖤
This is one of my all times favorite songs. It has so much meaning to me. I was afraid when I saw this at first. I must say that I love this rendition. I love what you guys did with it. Thanks for this.
Pmj covers = in love immediately on the first note or not your thing and there’s almost no in between. I either have songs I want to play over and over or ones I’ll skip every time because they just weren’t my thing but still amazing pieces of work none the less
this song means a lot to me. I grew up with this song. when this version came out, I'm afraid to herd this version. but now..wow, this is beautiful. It has that soul...
Takes some guts to cover this song in particular. You can't make the song any better than Pearl Jam did it. You can just give it a different temperament, different angle. Which you did. Thanks for that.
Oh my goodness... One of my favorite PJ songs. This rendition portrays a little more despair, at least to me, the more I listen to it. It almost seems like this is the song played as the credits roll at the end of a really sad movie where the protagonist loses everything and it was somehow all in vain. Thank you PMJ... Please do more.
The emotion behind Cortnie's performance is ethereal in the best of ways, getting goosebumps is an understatement. This touches my soul like music usually does from Postmodern Jukebox.
Oh my god... i just close my eyes and slow my heart beat and breath each word, leaving me feeling each note and I totally immersed myself in this musical moment that I wished I would never end .... why!!! THANKS with all my heart Joaquim from Lisbon
I've heard this song plenty over the years, but haven't *truly* heard this song until it came up randomly on my playlist today - the same day you guys post this beautiful cover. The universe is an odd place. Keep it up fellas ♥️
First time I heard this song was during a rough spot in my life. back then I would've listen to it over and over again since it proved to be cathartic to me. Today while listening to this for the first time I closed my eyes and I was instantly got transported to that exact feeling of healing. Thanks @Postmordernjukebox, you just made my day.

After a few listens I changed my mind. Black is a song thats been with me since its release. You dont hear “Black”. You feel it. You can feel it. She did do it perfectly.
I discovered it through "Aludio AI cover Jeff Buckley" - I jumped on it like the addict that I am. Sorry if you hate it, it feels totally wrong.
@@snoozieboi I dont hate it. Its the best cover of a Pearl Jam song ive ever heard. It just took a few listens for me to really get the feel for it. It is a beautiful rendition for sure.
Well said 👏
*I know someday you’ll have a beautiful life. I know you’ll be a star in somebody else’s sky, but why can’t it be mine.* those are probably the heaviest lyrics about heartache you can ever hear.
Confirmed.
I’ve always felt that way, too. That line hits so hard.
Agreed.
They sometimes, take a lifetime to learn., But should be full of love.😎archive
John Keats... look up bright star
"And now my bitter hands cradle broken glass of what was everything" one of many heart wrenching lines in this song.
I'm just trying to wash dishes but I guess I don't need the tap, I'll just use my tears. LOVE THIS. My favorite song
I never knew how heartbreaking the lyrics to this song were until today.
I’m gonna listen
you should listen to the acoustic MTV version from pearl jam aswell
I played this song on repeat for a girl named Misty Hoshaw in1995 when I was 15. I've grown up now, but everytime I hear this song I still feel the crushing loss of the day we broke up. It's such a magical and lonely kind of nostalgia.
Thank you.
Thank you for this. Black was one of my father's favorite songs, and recently he passed away due to corona virus infection. I only wish he could hear this masterpiece
These are such uncertain times for all of us, hopefully the days ahead will be less...black.
So sorry to hear about your father, Felipe. ✌️
I’m so sorry. 😢
I'm so sorry. I lost my Da two years ago. It hurts still. Be kind to yourself while you grieve, and don't let anyone tell you you're grieving wrong.
Sending light, love and strength your way Felipe, all the way from the Philippines!
Where are you from, Felipe? So sorry for your loss!

Thank you PMJ and Cortnie for the ride. Absolutely exquisite.
No, no NOOOOO. This is already the most heartbreaking song ever, you can't do this to me!
I agree.. and the Original breaks my heart every Freakin'time
Truth.
This and "Hurt" by Johnny Cash have the same sad energy
@@MrSottho Hurt is a Nine Inch Nails cover if you didnt know. Theres a live version performed by them thats on a different level. Live beside you in time i think is the name.
@@dirtnap9641 We all know that but the original and the cover have different vibes and Johnny Cash's is pure unfiltered sadness.
4:51 Such an elegant way to break my heart. Those lines still hit hard regardless of genre. And the ending was just perfect.
The original is one of my favourite songs ever. 1m40s in and I'm already impressed, this is outstanding. Thank you for this beautiful rendition.
So happy you enjoyed it Paulo!
Agreed!!
It's a song I don't listen to lightly.
So grateful for people appreciating such Art
My favorite song of all time... I was 16 when I saw the unplugged show in ‘92... incredible
My skin is vibrating, my eyes are tearing, and my ears are drowning in the rise and fall of her voice, an absolute angel.
I've watched all the postmodern jukebox videos. This is the best one. They're all good. Some better than others. But this one, this one's phenomenal. And the singer is outstanding.
Amen. I listened to the first 30 seconds then ran into the other room to tell my wife, "Stop what you're doing, and come listen to this." I've never done that for a song before. Incredible.
This rendition is so beautiful, I wonder if Pearl Jam has seen it
This song is one of the hidden gems of the Grunge era. PMJ, you've taken that gem and polished it to a magnificently melancholy sparkle for a new generation. Heartache never sounded so good. Thank you...be safe, keep warm, stay cool.
Hidden gems?
It was one of Pearl Jam's biggest songs chart wise and it was never released as a single!
@@xtlm EXACTLY!!
Wasn’t really hidden. Was pretty much in your face haha
@jjwankenobi I do love this rendition as well.

@@xtlm well, Pearl Jam sure tried to hide it, no single, no video, and still it got so big that Eddie Vedder regrets even making it
This is one of those songs where you're like
"DON'T f**k with my song man it's too close to me"....
But this rendition man... blew me away like the first time i heard the original...
If the song is great it survives arrangement to a new style.
The original Black hits hard but this version tore heart strings i did'nt know i had.
That's because this version expresses the sadness of the original, but not the anger. The original is seething this is lamenting. That's why it invokes such a different reaction.
God she's such a good vocalist. Such a combo of singing skills and feelings, this is so cool
OMG! How beautiful! I can't help crying whenever I listen to it! Congratulations for every musician! Inspiring!
Um ma’am, no. You gotta warn people about the emotional rollercoaster here. I’m smiling and crying rewinding and crying again. My spirit shoved me out the way just to listen to this!!!!
This made the song sadder for me. Beautiful rendition. Needs to be in a movie.
I was thinking the same .
A comment for the algorithm, I love the vibrato, the version, the arrangement.
I love PMJ, it’s such a beautiful place on the vast internet. It’s a gem in quarantine for me! Thank you!
That “All ill be” is just perfect. It really is a beautiful cover. This is a Masterpiece. A true work of Art. The first chorus grabs you and its over. That “All ill be” though,,,,,Perfection.

....I am the storm
It's like hearing "Black" again for the first time.
I can see Eddie's smirk while singing this in 94 glimpsing at this smirk in front of the crowd of 6 figures in the cold air without a single person cold from the inner warmth each of their hearts were over flowing with.
The original is amazing, but this is downright hauntingly beautiful.
I agree
I can not stop listening to this song! Please do more work with Cortnie Frazier, her vocals are incredible, and an excellent match for PMJ!

Something NO ONE can take, alter or
restrict or take away from US. Creativity and Our Faith!!!
My favourite PJ song but this haunting homage to the original gives me goosebumps. Adore.
Black
Pearl Jam
Sheets of empty canvas
Untouched sheets of clay
Were laid spread out before me
As her body once did
All five horizons
Revolved around her soul
As the earth to the sun
Now the air I tasted and breathed
Has taken a turn
Oh, and all I taught her was everything
Oh, I know she gave me all that she wore
And now my bitter hands
Chafe beneath the clouds
Of what was everything
Oh, the pictures have
All been washed in black
Tattooed everything
I take a walk outside
I'm surrounded by some kids at play
I can feel their laughter
So, why do I sear?
Oh, and twisted thoughts that spin round my head
I'm spinning, oh, I'm spinning
How quick the sun can drop away?
And now my bitter hands
Cradle broken glass
Of what was everything
All the pictures have
All been washed in black
Tattooed everything
All the love gone bad
Turned my world to black
Tattooed all I see
All that I am
All that I'll be, yeah
I know someday you'll have a beautiful life
I know you'll be a star
In somebody else's sky, but why? Why? Why
Can't it be, oh, can't it be mine?

Glad you got that sky.
Every "Why" that she sang almost opened my chest. Flesh and bone.
Thank you for your honesty
@@avidnongetit8710 sure
Dang, every "why" fell a little flat for me. Was hoping she would have gotten the last one a little harder

The “And now my bitter hands, cradle broken glass, of what was everything.” Will always break me inside no matter what mood I’m in
This song was played at my nephew's funeral, and means the world to me. This version is absolutely beautiful. Thank you.
Achei que ninguém conseguiria acrescentar mais melancolia e sentimento nesta música ..e vocês conseguiram ❤ é perfeita essa versão 😢❤️❤️❤️
Eu pensei que não tinha como deixar essa música melhor. Até encontrar esse vídeo.
😮 não gostei ñ.. adoro orquestra!... mas ñ gostei da escolha da levada vocal.. tô pensando como uma galera tão gabaritada conseguiu estragar um rock tão bonito.. rsrs só uma opinião irreverente, viu. Perfeita é a original mesmo!
I'm not even sad for anything in my life, but I'm crying just for the emotion this performance brings. Like watching a movie, we can see the whole story here through the character's POV and feel as they feel. Mind-blowing.
This is amazing. She has one of the most pure and beautiful voices I've ever heard. My only disappointment is that I've never heard her before now...
I love the space in the piano accompaniment, and the single call and answer between the piano and vocalist of the motif near the climax.
Ohh my God, I don't stop cry. Touch my Soul!
this is my sister's favorite Pearl Jam song. I love this rendition. I get chills with both versions
Scott Bradlee deserves a ton of credit for the awesome arrangement of this version. I typically don't like people messing with Pearl Jam's songs but this gets an exception due to how great Cortnie is..
Knocked it out of the park, again. And her voice is truly perfect for this. Can’t wait to hear it again!
Outstanding arrangement. Interesting to hear how hard a quality singer has to work, it really shows what a great vocal Eddie did on the original. 👏
I take a walk outside, I'm surrounded by some kids at play, I can feel their laughter, so why do I sear? Thank you Eddie for such fantastic lyrics.

@@jmooney69 : I'd love to hear PMJ do it. But Puddles has done an excellent version, check it out.
Freakin' A!
This is what angels would sound like if they sobbed. Beautiful.
This is one of my all times favorite songs. It has so much meaning to me. I was afraid when I saw this at first. I must say that I love this rendition. I love what you guys did with it. Thanks for this.
Damn with the 3/4 and her voice drifting over the top retaining so much of his phrasing..
Beautifully, devastatingly, despondent. Who hasn't felt this way before?
God I LOVE this Song
I can't count the times I yelled/sung it after leaving work..or a relationship Crashed...like O I knew it would
04:31-04:37 The violinist in the middle really liked that.....and also, this is the best thing I´ve ever heard.
Postmodern Jukebox always makes me happier whenever they release a new video! This song is awesome as usual! Thank you so much and stay safe!
Glad you enjoyed it :)
@@postmodernjukebox 😥😥😥
I love the original and acoustic versions..... but this version brought me some tears of joy..... it became a masterpiece, that's for sure.
I’m so impressed by talent here. Pure genius on the arrangement and mixing. Beautifully done to an already amazing song. What a voice! ❤️🖤
This performance is literally making me fall in love and shattering me om the inside at the same time.
Pmj covers = in love immediately on the first note or not your thing and there’s almost no in between. I either have songs I want to play over and over or ones I’ll skip every time because they just weren’t my thing but still amazing pieces of work none the less
this song means a lot to me. I grew up with this song. when this version came out, I'm afraid to herd this version. but now..wow, this is beautiful. It has that soul...
Love it. When this album came out it stayed in my car stereo for a month straight. This is a wonderful re-imagining.
Oh man.. i dont even know how to explain my feelings. All i can say is.. this is the perfect song for this late night
Ficou Linda. No original há um misto de lamento com a raiva, nesta versão me pareceu somente o lamento, levando o estilo musical ao extremo.
Exatamente isso.
just wow. her voice express every emotion
It's really beautiful, liberating. Although the original always makes me cry, I love how the atmosphere was carried over. Great voice, great band!
Be still my soul! I'm shaken just like I was almost 30 years ago when I first heard this song!
Takes some guts to cover this song in particular. You can't make the song any better than Pearl Jam did it. You can just give it a different temperament, different angle. Which you did. Thanks for that.
I am compelled to tell you that this rendition is quite simply magical. Spellbinding. Wonderful.
People who don’t like covers haven’t heard these.
Love this so much
A masterful performance of Black. Please also give Pearl Jam’s “Sirens” & “Nothingman” the PMJ treatment.
Definitely one of the best things I've heard in my entire life.
There are a few PMJ tracks that really stand out in this soulful way. This is definitely one of my new favorites.
I love pearl jam, but my God, this is just amazing
This version is one of the best things on RUclips. It has reached a level rarely seen before.
I can't believe more people haven't discovered this gem.
Her slightly smoky voice calls to mind K. D. Lang: amazing and heart-breaking.
Oh my goodness... One of my favorite PJ songs. This rendition portrays a little more despair, at least to me, the more I listen to it. It almost seems like this is the song played as the credits roll at the end of a really sad movie where the protagonist loses everything and it was somehow all in vain.
Thank you PMJ... Please do more.
The emotion behind Cortnie's performance is ethereal in the best of ways, getting goosebumps is an understatement. This touches my soul like music usually does from Postmodern Jukebox.
WOW, that rendition of the song turned out far better than I was expecting and beautifully sung!
just wow. the arrangement, and that voice, good lord, that voice. thank you thank you thank you
Absolutely fantastic version of a great song. Gives me chills.
Oh my god... i just close my eyes and slow my heart beat and breath each word, leaving me feeling each note and I totally immersed myself in this musical moment that I wished I would never end .... why!!! THANKS with all my heart Joaquim from Lisbon
I'm having an out-of-body experience; this is so good that my flesh can't hold me.
Best song. Pearl Jam 🐐
Her voice is so clear, and also I loved this new arrangement of the song :')
This is one of my all-time favorite Pearl Jam songs. Phenomenal rendition. It moved me to tears.
I've heard this song plenty over the years, but haven't *truly* heard this song until it came up randomly on my playlist today - the same day you guys post this beautiful cover.
The universe is an odd place. Keep it up fellas ♥️
from the first few seconds I fell in love with it... These almost six minutes are not enough.
Wow! What a cover! It gave me the chills listening to it!
Thanks Daniel 😊 Happy to hear you enjoyed it!
First time I heard this song was during a rough spot in my life. back then I would've listen to it over and over again since it proved to be cathartic to me. Today while listening to this for the first time I closed my eyes and I was instantly got transported to that exact feeling of healing.
Thanks @Postmordernjukebox, you just made my day.
