      The other great lead singer voice of the Grunge era is Chris Cornell (R.I.P.) of Soundgarden (and Audioslave). I recommend Soundgarden's biggest hit, "Black Hole Sun". I'll undoubtedly get ripped about Layne Staley (R.I.P.) of the band Alice in Chains, and Scott Weiland (R.I.P.) of Stone Temple Pilots, and you should absolutely listen to some of their songs to get a real feel for the Grunge movement as a whole.

      I’ve always loved Pearl Jam & Eddies voice blew me away the very first day I heard it many years ago. This is my favourite version of this song, because it really pulls on the feels for him which makes the feels pull on me & I just want to give him a hug & cry with him! I love Pearl Jam & just about every song. But this one is my favourite because of the emotions he makes me feel with those lyrics. I think most of us have been there. 😢

    • @leinonibishop9480

      @@Shake69ificationgreat song for sure but so many of their deeper cuts are also amazing. Wash, breath, garden, oceans. His vocals on W.M.A off Vs. are so soaring and atmospheric. I could go on but hell they have over 300 songs. Release- live in Holland is a religious experience. Definitely look that one up.

    Eddie Vedder goes beyond technique. As a singer, he doesn't do all these inane runs, and he doesn't have a super huge range. But in my opinion, there is no other singer that can convey as much sheer emotion as Eddie.

  • @drcanoro

    That raspiness, that scratching of the voice, like claws scratching on rocks, it's a form of art that is disappearing, few people are teaching it anymore, and it's a beautiful way to convey and capture emotions as you can see in this song. I hope this way of singing doesn't disappear.

    It always makes me so happy to see the reaction of someone that I know wasn't alive when this originally aired, or was way too young to remember it. I remember this MTV unplugged episode vividly, and Pearl Jam was definitely a huge part of my younger life. His voice is so unique. You instantly know who's singing.

    You need to listen to Temple of the Dog, "Hunger Strike." Chris Cornell wanted to pay tribute to his deceased friend, Andrew Wood, the singer for Mother Love Bone. Chris teamed with the surviving members, and new singer Eddie Vedder to make a tribute album, and Eddie would join the members of Mother Love Bone to form Pearl Jam.

    • @seansharpe9053

  • @filterfreephotography

    This song was very personal to Eddie. It was about a very bad break-up. You can see how his body language changes through out the performance. his hands start up and he is a bit open, then his hands and arms close up when it starts getting more painful, and then end is just pure agony.
    If I remember, they rarely played this song live because of the emotion.
    A great follow on is Hunger Strike by Temple of the Dog. It highlights Chris Cornell and Eddie as singers.

    This is truly a very powerful performance-indicative of the ‘big guns’ (him, Layne, Chris, etc) - of that era. They just had a way of plucking the strings of your soul. They didnt just sing - they push out sounds with such emotion capable of bringing people to their knees (so to speak). They go ALL IN - and we go with them.

    He didn’t want to put this on the album because it was too painful for him but they talked him into it. When he says All I taught her was EVERYTHING, he then whispers that’s ALL. Only in this version. It’s killer. Then his flip to his head voice back down to chest in one motion no breathe is amazing.

    One of the greatest live performances captured on video. Eddie's gift is/was his ability to put so much emotion into his singing. 30 years later, he's still doing a great job but those early years...wow. Incredibly, he was somewhat ill that day and was unsure about singing, and that may explain any "cracks" in his voice, but many feel that it added to his sound, not detracted from it. Another great live song to watch is of Pearl Jam live at Pink Pop 1992 performing their song Porch. It is somewhat interesting from a singer analysis point of view, but more so in the complete performance. 🎶 (lol I couldn't find the emoji because I was looking for it to be black but it's blue here on YT, lol)

"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". When he hears this part he started to be quiet. Suddenly he stand up and begins to throw stuff.

    This song was about his wife and their divorce. He actually teared up after this performance. He wiped his eye with his sleeve and he had to take a few moment to compose himself. You can see it at the very end of this video. It's just as powerful as the performance, itself.

    A little history on Unplugged. Unplugged on MTV arrived right after the Milli Vanilli controversy where they won a Grammy and then had to come out and admit they lip synced everything and it was other people singing the music. Unplugged was MTVs way of ferreting this stuff out. You had to be able to prove your chops, play and sing well without any electric or electronic help. I really wish they'd bring this back.

    The starting of the 2nd verse was improvised. He didnt sing it that way on the album. And also the outro. But now this is the only way I can hear it. I STILL get goosebumps from it.

    Eddie could be an opera singer… his voice is huge

    This performance has a LOT going on. If I remember correctly, orignally, this was part of early demos (instruemtally) by Mike McCready and Eddie was presented with these tapes and came up wtih the lyrics / vocal performaance as an AUDITION to join this band.
    The subject matter of the lyrics was incredibly personal to Eddie and he was NOT happy with the popularity of the song and never intended for it to be a big hit that so many people would know. It was SUPPOSEDLy about a very personal relationship that ended for Eddie that he did not wish to end.
    Then; the unplugged performance happened as it was a big song for them. So, they did it on unplugged and Eddie forgot a bit of the song so early on it went in a bit of differnt direction lyrically (I prefer it ^_^ ) and later in the song he, again, went in a different direction and imporvised lyrically when he started saying WE BELONG ... WE BELONG TOGETHER - which is NOT on the studio version.
    It is alreadya HIGHLY emtional song but in the live performance it elevates all of that for the audience and the performer to be something that could potentionally be considered one of the ultimate RECORDED emotional performances of a song of all time.
    Very nice reaction ^_^

    Yea. That wasn't Eddie being artistic at the end of the song. That was pure emotional pain being radiated into the atmosphere via his voice. Its a very personal song for him, and he completely lost himself in it for a few moments, there

    Those sounds you heard.. those are the sounds of actually living the words you wrote and sing... you can't mimic it unless you have lived it.

    Pearl Jam makes the most unusual love songs, usually unhappy unrequited love. I am thinking of Wishlist. 🎶

    One more thing, that grit is created from real, authentic pain. Hard to replicate today when everyone gets hurt by everything.

    The description you read at the beginning had one blatant mistake. Pearl Jam did the opposite of promoting grunge music. They were often weary of promotional efforts.
    They promoted causes they believe in, but I believe they promoted themselves (and grunge as an art form) as little as possible.

    Any time I see a new reaction to "Pearl Jam - Black" I'll watch it just to see how different people react to their first listen of the song.
    I'd suggest checking out some Mike Patton stuff as he has a 6.5 octave range and is versatile in his vocal styles. His stuff with Faith No More like Midlife Crisis, Ashes To Ashes and I Started A Joke will give a little insight to his talent.

    To me, this is the signature song for male heartache. all of us that have experienced the loss of love from a woman we truly cherished knows exactly how he felt writing this song. this is powerful... much like Sugarland's Stay. Anyone who's not seen that official video should go check it out. Another great singer in pain, and just like Eddie... brave enough to share that pain with the rest of us so it can comfort us in our time(s) of need...

    that vocal style you mention in the beginning Eddie Vedder was the originator of that sound.
