@Chris Cox Yep. Both DeLeo brothers, guitarist Dean Deleo and bassist Robert DeLeo, were/are as extremely underrated as Scott Weiland and the entire Core LP was.
What do you expect? You think these guys know STP like you and I do? They know less than nothing. Just thinking they did and then missing that huge song of theirs? Inexcusable.
The 1:15 big empty performance is from the Rolling Rock Town Fair in Latrobe Pa back in '01. First and only time i was lucky enough to see STP. He was one hell of a vocalist and a performer. It's sad that so many of the rock icons I grew up with are gone. RIP Scott
I worked backstage security for STP. I talked to a massage therapist who was hired, but never gave one massage, but was on hand if needed. The band seemed pretty laid back, and cool.
Its often said that GENIUS is torture. Well, one thing is certain ...Scott Weiland, must have been tortured beyond recognition!! In the past 30 years NOBODY COMES CLOSE TO HIS TALENT. Not only as a singer, but writer, frontman, showman and.general presence! One thing I do not quite get is why so many folks think STP were/are a knockoff of Pearl Jam!? If ya cant hear the MASSIVE DIFFERENCE, well? You havent been listening. Rest In Peace Mr. Scott Weiland and long live Stone Temple Pilots!!
Aladdin Sane 1. Chris Cornell 2. Staley 3. Weiland 4. Vedder 5. Cobain This was ranked in terms of singing ability. Chris Cornell was levels above any of the other grunge frontmen in terms of vocal ability.
Pearl jam knock off? I never heard that. Core was the first CD I bought in my life at the age of 12. Plush was one of the first songs I learned on guitar. What a great band.
Ha! I have never heard anyone else say this, I noticed the resemblance long ago (spent many hours watching Eastwood westerns with my fave uncle) I can just imagine Scott as some badass outlaw...I think both men are true artists.
So sad RIP I too was a heroin addict for yrs and after my 7th overdose I was done it wasn't fun know more so I learned to live with the pain I was going through and the broken heart I had, so I asked for help and stay clean and today I can tell everyone I'm 4yrs clean from heroin my clean date oct.13,2015
Yes, I agree. However figured without the two conditions to have ever been prevalent we'd be left with almost nothing but vanilla bland cloned music, eh?
@@slimmmshaney5695 Clearly MK Ultra. All 4 have been teasing about the machinations of CIA, Hollywood, Jesuits, Catholics etc. All 4 were targeted sick and eliminated.
my band opened for stp a few times in the 90s and i knew him personally he was a good guy.the power of addiction is a terrible thing. rip scott love you brother
Really? You should share more candid stories about Scott. I mean not saying anything to diminish his reputation, but I mean just the good side of Scott.
You probably knew more about Scott than the lady doing this video. None of us can really understand what another person's demons are. Addiction is a disease. I read that Scott was assaulted by a man when he was a kid. I was abused as a child and it takes it's toll on a person's soul. I feel sorry for those whose loved him. It's a horrible loss.
Scott was such an incredibly versatile, powerful, compelling singer. He could sing in so many different styles, excelling at each one. I put his voice up right up there with Freddie Mercury, that's how great a singer I thought he was. He could sing with a sweet, soft tone one moment, then hit you with a giant screaming tone the next. Singers like this do not come along very often and it saddens me to see that he is still so underappreciated.
Scott was a great artist. Stp sounded nothing like Pearl Jam. I hated hearing that all time. They are better than Pearl Jam . Scott u are missed. Your music has been and always will be the soundtrack of my life. Rip!
I agree with you. Although when listening to Plush for the first time, to strangers, you may actually remember Eddie's voice a little, but the other songs and albums from STP ... Nothing to do with the sound of PJ. I also think STP are at a higher level than PJ. STP has great influence of Led Zeppelin.
I respect your opinion but I must disagree. I love STP and Pearl Jam and have seen them both live many times (Pearl Jam 6 times). STP and Pearl Jam do sound similar but are different but Pearl Jam and Eddie's voice and how they sound live like their albums put them above STP for me.
For the longest time I thought Plush was a Peal Jam tune. I was on campus at Purdue around the time when PJ started out. They were playing Elliot Hall of Music on campus and everyone was talking about them. I had never heard of them and frankly was just learning about the Beatles and didn't care. I was all about LZ, Hendrix, Clapton, CCR etc. So that would have been around 1986. I heard a lot of STP, PJ, Soundgarden on the radio and did not dislike it but it wasnt my kind of music at the time. I think I first bought a STP CD in the mid to late 1990's, but I will say that it is only now, 2021, that I have become a fan of all three bands, or at least the sound and the singers. Have to appreciate the vocal range that Cornell, Wieland and Vedder all have. I am surprised that Eddie is still with us to be honest - glad he is.
The most versatile artist this world has ever seen. He could sing any type of music. Sounded exactly like Jim Morrison when doing his covers. What a stylish dresser too. He had it all.
Sucks he didn't quit for his kids. I cry for the kids but I would ask the artist "Why?! Why didn't you quit when you have precious babies?" . What adorable little ones, wherever they are today...I hope they are okay. I hope they don't live with a grudge or feelings of abandonment, I hope they feel loved and worthy. Scott was an incredible artist but we shouldn't glamourize and romanticize his or any other artist's death & addiction nor pretend that we knew them. We weren't the ones that lost our son, our husband, or our father. People forget about the loved ones that actually knew them. Sick of the idolatry.
I still think about Scott, he was my friend, I was fortunate to know him and play on his solo album 12 Bar Blues, which was not mentioned in this piece by the way... Always and still think about the music we could have recorded together. His brother Michael was a good drummer by the way, stay clean people 🙏
Seen STP in the early 00's, 01-03 in Chicago at a music fest, Kid Rock had just came out, then STP, then Metallica closed the show. STP blew them all away, Scott's stage presence was legendary. He came out with the S&M style outfit and commanded the stage. Haven't seen a stage presence like that before or since. Wish he didn't let drugs get the best of him but they did. If I'm lucky maybe I'll get to see an entertainer of his caliber again in my lifetime. R.I.P. Scott Weiland
I was at that same show -- do you remember Bare Naked Ladies practically getting booed off the stage??? I was pleasantly surprised that Kid Rock was good and did a fun set, but yeah STP was great.
Opiates..You can thank the doctors and BigPharma for flooding the world with opiates knowing fully well how addictive and dangerous they were and are with the sole purpose of making billions and helping no one.
@@alexscott730 Blame pharma if you wish. Unhappy people play Russian roulette every time they slam heroin. Their fear of dying is nothing compared to their fear of living.
NOBODY is ever stuck with being a junkie. There's always a way to come back to the light. If not for yourself, do it for those closest to you but no matter what, never give up hope.
I get what your saying but you can't get clean for other people,you have to do it for yourself or else it won't last,I don't know that,that is a fact or anything,it's my opinion as a former junkie
I was a college radio DJ ‘90 - ‘94, spun up a lot of STP, seems like “Dead and Bloated” and “Sex Type Thing” had the most initial airplay. They were a core element of music back then....😆
A Murdoch just the way Scott starts the song with that damn Megaphone is as unique and memorable as Bon Scott with the Bag Pipes or Jim Morrison with a liquor bottle.
Too bad he didn't let the devil go. I have empathy in a big way though. It's hard for anyone who has not been in the throes of addiction to understand. You DON'T want to be there but you only figure out how bad you are in it after you've seriously changed your brain chemistry into physical and psychological dependency and it's a long walk back out of the woods.
@Adrian no need talking to him, lol his name says it all right there "the lion TROLL" I love these comments..."he was a junkie he made his decision" Clearly someone not very educated would say. We all make a choice, and irregardless of that choice it leads us to the grave, we die regardless how healthy or unhealthy we live our lives. So scott was almost 49. Damn near 50....how much longer could he have had ? 10, 20 years...50, 60, 65, maybe 70...most.people dont live beyond 75 - 80 years of age...some do, but majority dont Keith Richards was a junkie from like 1967 to 1987. Ozzy osbourne snorted half a colombian rain forest in the 70s ...lol he has been an addict since the 60s....70s...80s....90s....00s...even 2010. Ozzy osbourne is 72 years old this year and he was just in rehab in 2017 for the umteeth time...hes still alive, still rich...worth like $100 million. And still going strong...minus major tremor shakes lol. But what are you going to say about that
I think so many of these artists are highly sensitive people with zero coping skills. They get shot into fame like a rocket, wealthy overnight, and with all the other drama of personal life on top of it, it all leaves them so overwhelmed that they're left defenseless!! It's no wonder they turn to drugs. And there in lies the tragedy as it plays itself out over and over and over again. I'm so sick of drugs taking beautiful souls away from us and breaking our hearts!!! 😔💔
I can still remember the nauseated feeling I got when I heard about Scott being found dead only maybe an hour or so from where I live..... I hope and pray you are at peace Scott------thank you so much for your contribution to the world of rock music......
Scott will always be an amazing artist in my opinion his music had more of an impact on people's lives than he will ever know we luv and miss u Scott r.i.p brother
Andy Thompson I don’t even see the comparison other than they were grunge bands so were many other bands, men and women... people have to ruin everything
I saw Scott perform with the Wildabouts in 2014 at a casino in Battle Creek MI. Awesome show..he was in control from start to finish. I'm so glad I saw one of the best front men ever in action. RIP, Scott
Scott Weiland - a great artistic musical genius ...gone too soon and he was so versatile...never a PJ knock off band. Thank you Scott and STP for great music that will live forever. ❤️
A Pearl Jam Knock off....yeah I remember people saying that at the time.I never got it.Both are legendary bands but couldn’t be more different in style and substance.
His brother introduced him to heroin, the brown will leave you in the gutter or kill you. Saw Scott with STP and VR. The VR gig at Manchester Apollo is one of the best gigs I've been too. I'm 55 now and my first gig was Motorhead in 79.
His brother did not introduce him to heroin. It was actually the other way around. The first time Scott did heroin was while on tour with the Butthole Surfers in 1993. It was the lead singer of The Butthole Surfers that introduced him. One night, they rolled into their next tour stop in NYC, and STP dressed as Kiss at the show (google it and you'll find pics and video of them in full on KISS garb). Scott snorted his first line of heroin that night before going onstage. He wrote in his autobiography: “The opiate took me to where I’d always dreamed of going. I can’t name the place, but I can say that I was undisturbed and unafraid, a free-floating man in a space without demons and doubts.”
@@emotionallyexhausted1410 the last line of your comment is the truest words ever written! Im a recovering heroin addict been clean 5 years im 44! You cannot explain the feeling any better than those words! Very sad loss but that poison is deadly addictive! Its almost impossible to stop! The percentage of users that stay clean is very very minimal! Id say over 90percent of users never get clean! Thats a deadly drug! Nobody could ever tell me any different! I hope to stay that small percentage!
@@baddazzgarage2953 Agreed. Congrats on your sobriety, man. You're right, getting and staying clean after opiate addiction is incredibly difficult. You should be very proud. Stay strong.✊
Def a giant in my musical history. Fell in love with everything he did but hated to see him suffer from his addictions . I know Scott’s somewhere painting those pictures he never got to paint😘
What happened to scott weiland? I can tell you that, heroin. Dont need a youtube video for that..still, he was amazing, he was the David Bowie of our generation
Stp and Weiland are forever dear to my heart. From Core to 4, they blew my mind over & over with there music and lyrics. There one of very few bands that I love most of there songs on every album I had of there's. Especially a couple that were never on the radio/mainstream idk.....such as Silver Gun Superman, Kitchenware & Candy bars, Meatplow, Art School Girlfriend among others. God bless you Scott Weiland RIP
STP was a groundbreaking original rock n roll band and Scott Weiland will always be a songwriting genius in my book. I saw them in concert in Johnson City,Tn. and they rocked. One of the best concerts I have ever seen. RIP Scott Weiland
@blue heeler one of the slang names for marijuana is "dope" due to many years of misinformation, and insufficient medical research. Medical marijuana actually is a thing. It's been found to be extremely beneficial in these treatment of neurological disorders such as epilepsy and multiple sclerosis; treatment of side effects of chemo & radiation therapy, and certain mental health disorders like anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder and more. Yes, it is a "drug", but it's far less dangerous than even alcohol consumption. Please don't speak on something you're not educated on. It's not for everyone or every condition, but marijuana LITERRALY saved my niece's life. She suffered from up to 30 seizures a day, and now lives virtually seizure free.
@blue heeler I don't smoke, you ignorant twat. Why is it the trolls who comment only to attack or rile people up for fun, love to use the slang "pleb"? 🙄 Well, uneducated "plebs" like YOU are the reason patients who could benefit, even SURVIVE, are denied access to medical marijuana. My niece, who suffers from Dravet Syndrome, (aka myoclonic epilepsy of infancy or SMEI) is most definitely NOT the exception; and for the record, hasn't been "stoned" a day in her young life. She would have died without medicinal marijuana treatment. But here in the US, States are changing their laws, and voting to either legalize medicinal use, or decriminalize it altogether at a rapid pace. Why? Because the research backs up what I've told you. Before you know it, it'll be legal in some shape or form everywhere, so watch out! Lock up your kids and your wives! All the "dope" using boogie mans are gonna get 'em! Lmao. Try educating yourself before you speak, because the ignorance is staggering. And the original commenter was CORRECT. Marijuana could have helped save Scott Weiland's life. Significant new studies show the benefits of use in treatment of opioid addiction & prevention of relapse. See: ruclips.net/video/_0ojs3AFono/видео.html Attack me with more of your "plebian" nonsense all you want. You're a clown & I'm done feeding the trolls.👋🤡 health.howstuffworks.com/wellness/drugs-alcohol/cnns-sanjay-gupta-on-how-marijuana-can-break-opioid-addiction.htm
@@ethanmq95 You're correct. He was actually telling the truth when he claimed had been clean from heroin for several years. However, he struggled & continued to "self-medicate" with other drugs. Scott died from an accidental overdose of alcohol, cocaine and MDA, combined with previously undiagnosed, and significant heart disease (atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease) which ultimately caused a heart attack. Asthma and his history of "multi-substance" dependence were also contributing factors. 😥 Rest easy, Scott Richard Weiland.
So cool!!! Did you get to talk with him or other members? I always remember Robert DeLeo being so cool during the shows he’d always throw his sweaty towel at me. Once I even got Scott’s towel but i had to cut it in 3’s because I was with 2 other girls. Still have it to this day.... man I sound like a lame fan girl. 😂
Same here. I always thought PJ were posers so I stuck with STP, Alice In Chains, Nirvana, Soundgarden and other great bands from the era but not as famous as the ones I mentioned
@@no.8466 hope you're trolling by following up on the whole "female super hero" thing cause telling people to try Heroin and fucking their life up is a shitty thing to do.
Yeah it rubbed me the wrong way. She was acting like she was a victim. She also did drugs with Scott, which could have very well escalated his addiction. Nasty, for sure.
I love them both so much, but tbh I have no idea why STP were being referred to as a Pearl Jam clone....they are both unique bands with the own distinct sounds for sure.
Eli Cvetic Eddie was always the ‘I grew up poor’ socialist type, living a life of excess thanks to capitalism, but denigrating those he deemed as beneath him if they didn’t share his socialist ideals.
Plush is just one of those songs when each instrument, including the vocal track, has a great part and can stand on it's own. I can listen to each track isolated and they all sound awesome and when combined - magic.
Duff actually went above and beyond to help Scott and it worked really well for a while but Scott fell back into his old ways. Unfortunately, Scott was destined to die a drug related death else he would of shook the habit and some people just don't want help.
Stone Temple Pilots are the most underrated Grunge band of all time,better than Pearl Jam,better than Soundgarden id put them at number 3 AIC being 1st and Nirvana 2nd
They are just a rock band. So was AIC so was Soundgarden....grunge was a record label thing. Does Vatican sound like grunge? Does AIC acoustic stuff sound like grunge? All grunge really was, was a mish mashing of classic rock and metal with maybe a smattering of punks speed and energy. But as 2019 winds down most of it sounds like rock music at this point. And you cant sell that many records and be underrated lol
@@damotheman4196 agree, well said. I get what he's saying as well. However, just fyi, Logan Paul infiltrated the "flat earth" community to make a RUclips documentary essentially refuting the entire belief. Sorry man, but he was only a fake flat earther. 🤷🏼♀️
@@emotionallyexhausted1410 Hey christy i was only being a sarcastic flat-earther for comic effect to the guy who was being a smart-ass over the op's tribute to scott...absolutely no idea why it came into my head at the time! Oh the world spinning shit he said that was it..i love scott and the song he was referring too and hate logan paul and aint a flat earther in the slightest! It wouldn't go down to well in Ireland! You an stp fan or flat earther?😉 Edit-damn it christy you've just ruined my logan paul bit but thanks for the info!😂
Omg. ❤'d this so much! Thank u! Scott was one of the best frontmen to ever grace the stage. Also a brilliant lyricist, who (one point you missed here); also suffered a lot from crippling bipolar disorder, and struggled to find the proper meds/plan to treat it-which is why he turned to Heroin. Scott and STP are so underrated. Rest easy Scott. The 3 live STP shows I was lucky enough to catch were some of the absolute best live shows I've ever seen. (coming from someone who went to A LOT of shows; Lollapalooza's, Monsters of Rock, Rock Fests, even Woodstock's in the 90's-early 2000's). Miss him so much, I can't even watch or listen to STP w/Jeff Gutt. Imagine Soundgarden without Chris Cornell on the mic. Just. No. I know the band has to move on, but it's still too soon. Start another band, or wait it out several years like Alice in Chains did. Sorry, I went off on a little tangent there, but it's the truth. Lol. Scott, man, you were just so 🔥🔥! 🤘
Scott Weiland was awesome. I was devastated when he passed away. S.T.P. had their own sound and it was great. I never once thought they sounded like any other band but who they were. It's so sad he is gone. Definitely way too soon. Miss him. 😢
They were never in any way a Pearl Jam knock off band. STP were brilliant without being derivative. Interstate Love Song is one of the greatest ever written.
This was beautifully done. Thank you for making this.... However, there were a few mistakes: 1. Name - Scott Richard Kline. 2. Born on October 27th, not November. 3. He didn’t OD on heroin, the toxicology reports only found benzos (Xanax), a medication to help combat opiates like heroin (buprenorphine), his bipolar medication (ziprasidone), and even viagra (I’ll let you look it up if you don’t know what it is 🍆).
THX 1138 No, to die from overdose on benzos you need to take an unrealistically high amount at once. Every single benzo overdose death has another CNS depressant involved (maybe minus a few crazy cases). You could probably take a whole bottle of xanax and you’ll just black out. The body absorbs benzos at a certain rate, and the threshold cant be broken to cause a deadly overdose.
So sad, and weirdly, he died on my b-day. I feel privileged to have seen STP five times, and also Velvet Revolver as well. RIP Scott, you're STILL missed!
A hallmark trait of heroin addicts is the lack of self awareness brought about by repetitive escapes from reality. You are reading something into still photographs that doesn’t jibe with his behavior at the time. Projection is a defense mechanism used to deal with grief. Fascinating example
STP is not a knock off band. They held up to and excelled above most grunge bands. and put on some of the best concerts around. RIP Scott.
agreed, stp will always remain at the top of the grunge era bands for me
I agree!
Well said, they fawking rocked & are missed. RIP SW 🙏
Stp and Alice for this guy .... Grunge super group mad season.

No mention of "Plush"? One of my favorite bass lines of all time.

Who’s the dip shit comparing STP to Toe Jam
lets get this straight, never were they a knockoff band.
Thank you! From someone who loved them from the very beginning that label is extremely insulting.

STP had better music than pearl jam and sounded nothing like them, Scott was a better singer.
Yea where is he coming up with this bullshit from?
STP is actually quite jazzy. Just check out the chords and you'll know what I mean
The incredible talent behind Scott in STP was second to none. And Scott was the bow on the package.
We all miss you Scott. R.I.P.
Scott was so unique, and his voice has such a hypnotic timbre.
A Pearl Jam knock off band?? Never in my opinion! They were definately their own band
Pearl jam knock off? I never heard that. Core was the first CD I bought in my life at the age of 12. Plush was one of the first songs I learned on guitar. What a great band.
Anyone that knows music can tell a huge difference. STP was much better. I never liked Pearl Jam.
STP is infinitely better than PJ! They have a big influence of Led Zeppelin!
I´m a musician and if you want to relate STP to any grunge band , that band should be Alice in Chains.
I cannot stand eddies goat voice. Scott blows him out of the water
Scott looks like he could have been Clint Eastwood son in certain pictures.
Alot of celebrities are actually clones. If you pay attention many of them resemble each other.

@@scott729 gotcha. All good. I hope you are now enjoying STP 👍🏽
The most versatile artist this world has ever seen. He could sing any type of music. Sounded exactly like Jim Morrison when doing his covers. What a stylish dresser too. He had it all.
agree,,,,,he WAS a rockSTAR ARTIST
He was a vocal chameleon. He could change his tone so effortlessly
and dance
THe most versatile musical artist this world has ever seen? Ummmmm.... no.....
@@ivanjulian2532 eat me!
The shot of him hugging the little girl, pure joy on his face...killed me. :-(
It was Lucy, his daughter
Sucks he didn't quit for his kids. I cry for the kids but I would ask the artist "Why?! Why didn't you quit when you have precious babies?" .
What adorable little ones, wherever they are today...I hope they are okay.
I hope they don't live with a grudge or feelings of abandonment, I hope they feel loved and worthy.
Scott was an incredible artist but we shouldn't glamourize and romanticize his or any other artist's death & addiction nor pretend that we knew them.
We weren't the ones that lost our son, our husband, or our father.
People forget about the loved ones that actually knew them.
Sick of the idolatry.
He was such a beautiful mess and I miss him alot to this day... one of the last of the unapologetic rock stars. STP RULES
Same tho 😔
"a beautiful mess". How fucking profound! I so want to steel it...and put it on a t-shirt, but out of honor won't.
I worked at house of blues for awhile in Myrtle Beach SC,I had to drive him to an AA meeting he was very cool...
His vocals in plush
@@dwaynepaul3125 I saw both shows STP played there
Do whatever you want to but stay away from heroin. It'll take your money, family, children and your life a way to soon
Misha Lap yeah I unfortunately can attest to that..
🤷 stereotype
I'm an recovering Heroin addict and it's the one drug that makes you feel the best and the worst! BTW he did NOT overdose on H.
Not always. I've been using 20 plus years . Never been to jail , have a wife ( who doesn't use ) 2 kids , good job and savings.
@@daniellenichols9757 what was it?
RIP Scott. Thank you for sharing your immense gift with us.
I still think about Scott, he was my friend, I was fortunate to know him and play on his solo album 12 Bar Blues, which was not mentioned in this piece by the way... Always and still think about the music we could have recorded together. His brother Michael was a good drummer by the way, stay clean people 🙏
I listen to that album quite a bit. It’s rad.
Awesome he's one of my all time favorites...RIP!
Hell of a front man! And he had amazing stage presence and moves ! The complete rockstar..RIP Scott.
Seen STP in the early 00's, 01-03 in Chicago at a music fest, Kid Rock had just came out, then STP, then Metallica closed the show. STP blew them all away, Scott's stage presence was legendary. He came out with the S&M style outfit and commanded the stage. Haven't seen a stage presence like that before or since. Wish he didn't let drugs get the best of him but they did. If I'm lucky maybe I'll get to see an entertainer of his caliber again in my lifetime. R.I.P. Scott Weiland
Well I guess you missed DLR back in the early days so yea great ones don't come along that often.
I was at that same show -- do you remember Bare Naked Ladies practically getting booed off the stage??? I was pleasantly surprised that Kid Rock was good and did a fun set, but yeah STP was great.
Scott.... Layne....Chris...Kurt...Chester so many more rock stars of my youth are dead and gone. I feel more than cheated
I know, right? Our parents Rock Stars, many of them are still alive!
Opiates..You can thank the doctors and BigPharma for flooding the world with opiates knowing fully well how addictive and dangerous they were and are with the sole purpose of making billions and helping no one.

NOBODY is ever stuck with being a junkie. There's always a way to come back to the light. If not for yourself, do it for those closest to you but no matter what, never give up hope.
There ARE some people who are so depressed they just CANNOT heal. Scott was raped at a young age and it haunted him his whole life. He had demons.
rick dalton That is really good. If you can't change for yourself, change for someone that cares for you.
I get what your saying but you can't get clean for other people,you have to do it for yourself or else it won't last,I don't know that,that is a fact or anything,it's my opinion as a former junkie
Scott was naturally gifted with talent
If he had been well, he would have been popular for decades
Scott was immensely talented and absolutely electric in concert..Truly a rock great.
I was a college radio DJ ‘90 - ‘94, spun up a lot of STP, seems like “Dead and Bloated” and “Sex Type Thing” had the most initial airplay. They were a core element of music back then....😆
A Murdoch just the way Scott starts the song with that damn Megaphone is as unique and memorable as Bon Scott with the Bag Pipes or Jim Morrison with a liquor bottle.
A Murdoch “Core” element😏 I see what you did there🤘
Those were fun years.
he almost looked at times like he was from the 1940s or 50s what a WASTE.
Its called class
What do you mean waste
He had so much potential. Too bad the devil just wouldn’t let go of him.
Too bad he didn't let the devil go. I have empathy in a big way though. It's hard for anyone who has not been in the throes of addiction to understand. You DON'T want to be there but you only figure out how bad you are in it after you've seriously changed your brain chemistry into physical and psychological dependency and it's a long walk back out of the woods.
I read somewhere that Scott refused to ever sign with the devil.
@Adrian no need talking to him, lol his name says it all right there "the lion TROLL"
I love these comments..."he was a junkie he made his decision"
Clearly someone not very educated would say.
We all make a choice, and irregardless of that choice it leads us to the grave, we die regardless how healthy or unhealthy we live our lives. So scott was almost 49. Damn near 50....how much longer could he have had ? 10, 20 years...50, 60, 65, maybe 70...most.people dont live beyond 75 - 80 years of age...some do, but majority dont
Keith Richards was a junkie from like 1967 to 1987.
Ozzy osbourne snorted half a colombian rain forest in the 70s ...lol he has been an addict since the 60s....70s...80s....90s....00s...even 2010.
Ozzy osbourne is 72 years old this year and he was just in rehab in 2017 for the umteeth time...hes still alive, still rich...worth like $100 million. And still going strong...minus major tremor shakes lol. But what are you going to say about that
I think so many of these artists are highly sensitive people with zero coping skills. They get shot into fame like a rocket, wealthy overnight, and with all the other drama of personal life on top of it, it all leaves them so overwhelmed that they're left defenseless!! It's no wonder they turn to drugs. And there in lies the tragedy as it plays itself out over and over and over again. I'm so sick of drugs taking beautiful souls away from us and breaking our hearts!!! 😔💔
True artists generally do not have emotional defenses because they are tuning into creative muse where there is absolutely no need for them.
Yep agree
I love the piano solo playing Creep in the background at the end of this video. My heart goes out to Scott. RIP, sir.
I can still remember the nauseated feeling I got when I heard about Scott being found dead only maybe an hour or so from where I live..... I hope and pray you are at peace Scott------thank you so much for your contribution to the world of rock music......
What a tragedy. He had so much more to offer.
Scott will always be an amazing artist in my opinion his music had more of an impact on people's lives than he will ever know we luv and miss u Scott r.i.p brother
Purple was a masterpiece. Pearl Jam couldn’t touch this band
I think Purple was thier best
Yeah right. Pearl Jam is fucking amazing.
Love Stone Temple Pilots but what you’ve just said lacks thought.
Agreed.
Andy Thompson I don’t even see the comparison other than they were grunge bands so were many other bands, men and women... people have to ruin everything
I saw Scott perform with the Wildabouts in 2014 at a casino in Battle Creek MI. Awesome show..he was in control from start to finish. I'm so glad I saw one of the best front men ever in action.
RIP, Scott
Hey there! I know EXACTLY what you mean. I was at the casino that night, too! I left work at the mall and got there right on time!
I miss Battle Creek, despite there being nothing around, lol
Scott Weiland - a great artistic musical genius ...gone too soon and he was so versatile...never a PJ knock off band. Thank you Scott and STP for great music that will live forever. ❤️
I miss the comfort of being sad.......
RIP Scott Weiland, you are great, even to this day man.
R,I,,P , SCOTT, HOPE YOU FOUND YOUR PEACE , 💜
Scott looked more like Clint Eastwood than Clint Eastwood's son who just so happens to also be named Scott.
Richard Dawson!
Hope he is resting well. Love his music it's beautiful always.
the best singer and frontman of the last 30 years...this video made my cry a bit,i always loved his music...
I loved Stone Temple Pilots so much when I was in university. RIP Scott...
A Pearl Jam Knock off....yeah I remember people saying that at the time.I never got it.Both are legendary bands but couldn’t be more different in style and substance.
His brother introduced him to heroin, the brown will leave you in the gutter or kill you. Saw Scott with STP and VR. The VR gig at Manchester Apollo is one of the best gigs I've been too. I'm 55 now and my first gig was Motorhead in 79.
His brother did not introduce him to heroin. It was actually the other way around. The first time Scott did heroin was while on tour with the Butthole Surfers in 1993. It was the lead singer of The Butthole Surfers that introduced him. One night, they rolled into their next tour stop in NYC, and STP dressed as Kiss at the show (google it and you'll find pics and video of them in full on KISS garb). Scott snorted his first line of heroin that night before going onstage. He wrote in his autobiography: “The opiate took me to where I’d always dreamed of going. I can’t name the place, but I can say that I was undisturbed and unafraid, a free-floating man in a space without demons and doubts.”
@@emotionallyexhausted1410 the last line of your comment is the truest words ever written! Im a recovering heroin addict been clean 5 years im 44! You cannot explain the feeling any better than those words! Very sad loss but that poison is deadly addictive! Its almost impossible to stop! The percentage of users that stay clean is very very minimal! Id say over 90percent of users never get clean! Thats a deadly drug! Nobody could ever tell me any different! I hope to stay that small percentage!

Def a giant in my musical history. Fell in love with everything he did but hated to see him suffer from his addictions . I know Scott’s somewhere painting those pictures he never got to paint😘

What happened to scott weiland? I can tell you that, heroin. Dont need a youtube video for that..still, he was amazing, he was the David Bowie of our generation
He was much cooler than Bowie, and Bowie was pretty damn cool.
Airborne Sapper That’s a very good analogy actually 👍🏼
Stp and Weiland are forever dear to my heart. From Core to 4, they blew my mind over & over with there music and lyrics. There one of very few bands that I love most of there songs on every album I had of there's. Especially a couple that were never on the radio/mainstream idk.....such as Silver Gun Superman, Kitchenware & Candy bars, Meatplow, Art School Girlfriend among others. God bless you Scott Weiland RIP
STP was a groundbreaking original rock n roll band and Scott Weiland will always be a songwriting genius in my book. I saw them in concert in Johnson City,Tn. and they rocked. One of the best concerts I have ever seen. RIP Scott Weiland
I hate drugs. Stick with weed people!! Scott Weiland would still be here if he had smoked weed instead of deadly heroin.
Weed is still a drug. Personally I believe all drugs should be legal. But lying about what constitutes a drug, isn't helping anything.
@blue heeler one of the slang names for marijuana is "dope" due to many years of misinformation, and insufficient medical research. Medical marijuana actually is a thing. It's been found to be extremely beneficial in these treatment of neurological disorders such as epilepsy and multiple sclerosis; treatment of side effects of chemo & radiation therapy, and certain mental health disorders like anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder and more. Yes, it is a "drug", but it's far less dangerous than even alcohol consumption. Please don't speak on something you're not educated on.
It's not for everyone or every condition, but marijuana LITERRALY saved my niece's life. She suffered from up to 30 seizures a day, and now lives virtually seizure free.
I agree full heartedly, but im pretty sure his OD had to do with cocaine, and not heroin
@blue heeler I don't smoke, you ignorant twat. Why is it the trolls who comment only to attack or rile people up for fun, love to use the slang "pleb"? 🙄 Well, uneducated "plebs" like YOU are the reason patients who could benefit, even SURVIVE, are denied access to medical marijuana. My niece, who suffers from Dravet Syndrome, (aka myoclonic epilepsy of infancy or SMEI) is most definitely NOT the exception; and for the record, hasn't been "stoned" a day in her young life. She would have died without medicinal marijuana treatment. But here in the US, States are changing their laws, and voting to either legalize medicinal use, or decriminalize it altogether at a rapid pace. Why? Because the research backs up what I've told you. Before you know it, it'll be legal in some shape or form everywhere, so watch out! Lock up your kids and your wives! All the "dope" using boogie mans are gonna get 'em! Lmao. Try educating yourself before you speak, because the ignorance is staggering. And the original commenter was CORRECT. Marijuana could have helped save Scott Weiland's life. Significant new studies show the benefits of use in treatment of opioid addiction & prevention of relapse. See: ruclips.net/video/_0ojs3AFono/видео.html
Attack me with more of your "plebian" nonsense all you want. You're a clown & I'm done feeding the trolls.👋🤡 health.howstuffworks.com/wellness/drugs-alcohol/cnns-sanjay-gupta-on-how-marijuana-can-break-opioid-addiction.htm
@@ethanmq95 You're correct. He was actually telling the truth when he claimed had been clean from heroin for several years. However, he struggled & continued to "self-medicate" with other drugs. Scott died from an accidental overdose of alcohol, cocaine and MDA, combined with previously undiagnosed, and significant heart disease (atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease) which ultimately caused a heart attack. Asthma and his history of "multi-substance" dependence were also contributing factors. 😥 Rest easy, Scott Richard Weiland.
He wallowed in despair and never found true healing
My band opened for STP at the Troc in Philly in the early 90’s. They were all very nice boys
That's awesome! Thanks for being here and commenting, vonslagle!
Fellow Pennsylvanian? Personally I really dig Filmore. But Trocadero was awesome too
So cool!!! Did you get to talk with him or other members? I always remember Robert DeLeo being so cool during the shows he’d always throw his sweaty towel at me. Once I even got Scott’s towel but i had to cut it in 3’s because I was with 2 other girls. Still have it to this day.... man I sound like a lame fan girl. 😂
Heck yes. Very Awesome.
@@WhitneyPelayo Lame? You are what rock 'n' roll was built on!
Always loved STP, never cared for Pearl Jam.
Jersey Devil that Pearl Jam comment was absolute fucking horseshit. Stp always had their own sound and was never labeled a Pearl Jam sound alike lol
Same here. I always thought PJ were posers so I stuck with STP, Alice In Chains, Nirvana, Soundgarden and other great bands from the era but not as famous as the ones I mentioned
a heartbreaking tale! One of the greatest frontmen ever!

As a recovering drug addict I can honestly say his ex wife’s open letter was truly disgusting.
Yeah it rubbed me the wrong way. She was acting like she was a victim. She also did drugs with Scott, which could have very well escalated his addiction. Nasty, for sure.
I messed around with the H back in the 90s
Stuck on it for most of that decade.
The Only thing that got me clean was a Three Year prison sentence.
Rip to one of the many singers of the 90s we loved. Great decade for music
I hated pearl jam, I loved stp, that should tell you they sound nothing alike.. no disrespect to pear jam just never liked vetters voice.
I love them both so much, but tbh I have no idea why STP were being referred to as a Pearl Jam clone....they are both unique bands with the own distinct sounds for sure.
Think Scott did his best work with Velvet Revolver.
This was the first time I ever heard they even sounded alike I never got that impression stp is heavier and the 2 singers sound nothing alike
I agree Pearl Jam have never impressed me at all and have never been cool
Eli Cvetic Eddie was always the ‘I grew up poor’ socialist type, living a life of excess thanks to capitalism, but denigrating those he deemed as beneath him if they didn’t share his socialist ideals.
Scott Weiland is the greatest rock singer of all time, in my opinion! Very sad story and ending!
Yeah, he and Krazy Kris Cornell are whaling it out and warming up for our shows later.
I totally agree with you BumbleBee
ever heard of Bon Scott Ace?
The '90s wouldn't be complete without Scott Weiland's voice!
Plush stands as one of the greatest rock songs of all time in my opinion. Just timeless.
Plush is just one of those songs when each instrument, including the vocal track, has a great part and can stand on it's own. I can listen to each track isolated and they all sound awesome and when combined - magic.
Born October 27, not November 27.
Carl Brutananadilewski that makes him a Scorpio,
Scott was awesome and always had a cool look about him I ❤ STP
I remember watching Slash & Duff trying to counsel Scott on changing his lifestyle away from drugs, and sadly thinking it was a lost cause...😢
Duff actually went above and beyond to help Scott and it worked really well for a while but Scott fell back into his old ways. Unfortunately, Scott was destined to die a drug related death else he would of shook the habit and some people just don't want help.
Drugs happened to Scott Weiland.
I just saved you 7 minutes.
Stone Temple Pilots are the most underrated Grunge band of all time,better than Pearl Jam,better than Soundgarden id put them at number 3 AIC being 1st and Nirvana 2nd
While AIC and Nirvana might be better in their own ways, STP was so much more versatile largely due to Scott's amazing voice.
I am a huge fan of STP, but for me the screaming trees were the most underrated band, by far
They are just a rock band. So was AIC so was Soundgarden....grunge was a record label thing. Does Vatican sound like grunge? Does AIC acoustic stuff sound like grunge? All grunge really was, was a mish mashing of classic rock and metal with maybe a smattering of punks speed and energy. But as 2019 winds down most of it sounds like rock music at this point. And you cant sell that many records and be underrated lol
1 AIC 2 Soundgarden 3 Stp
Beardy Ry AIC is a straight up metal band. Not grunge
Irreparable, irreplaceable and insanely talented. His Memory Still Remains. ❤

They weren't a knock off band. Get your 'facts' straight.
Thank you Scott Weiland for all the kick ass music. Rest easy. The pain is gone my FRIEND. Alive in the hearts of the fans still. RIP S.Weiland
Omg. ❤'d this so much! Thank u! Scott was one of the best frontmen to ever grace the stage. Also a brilliant lyricist, who (one point you missed here); also suffered a lot from crippling bipolar disorder, and struggled to find the proper meds/plan to treat it-which is why he turned to Heroin. Scott and STP are so underrated. Rest easy Scott. The 3 live STP shows I was lucky enough to catch were some of the absolute best live shows I've ever seen. (coming from someone who went to A LOT of shows; Lollapalooza's, Monsters of Rock, Rock Fests, even Woodstock's in the 90's-early 2000's). Miss him so much, I can't even watch or listen to STP w/Jeff Gutt. Imagine Soundgarden without Chris Cornell on the mic. Just. No. I know the band has to move on, but it's still too soon. Start another band, or wait it out several years like Alice in Chains did. Sorry, I went off on a little tangent there, but it's the truth. Lol. Scott, man, you were just so 🔥🔥! 🤘
Aic waited and it still sucks. Stp is over as far as im concerned
u r so lucky to have seen this amazing rock god live..wish I had..he was an enigma...yes, rip Scotty
In some pics Scott looks like Layne Staley in a way. May both of them RIP.
Scott Weiland was awesome. I was devastated when he passed away. S.T.P. had their own sound and it was great. I never once thought they sounded like any other band but who they were. It's so sad he is gone. Definitely way too soon. Miss him. 😢
Well said. Agree on everything
They were never in any way a Pearl Jam knock off band. STP were brilliant without being derivative. Interstate Love Song is one of the greatest ever written.
This was beautifully done. Thank you for making this....
However, there were a few mistakes:
1. Name - Scott Richard Kline.
2. Born on October 27th, not November.
3. He didn’t OD on heroin, the toxicology reports only found benzos (Xanax), a medication to help combat opiates like heroin (buprenorphine), his bipolar medication (ziprasidone), and even viagra (I’ll let you look it up if you don’t know what it is 🍆).
His toxicology reports found cocaine, alcohol and mda...he shot coke and heroin...
Mixing benzos with suboxone will cause death
@@roxannemoser Benzos alone will cause death. Avoid at all costs.
THX 1138 No, to die from overdose on benzos you need to take an unrealistically high amount at once. Every single benzo overdose death has another CNS depressant involved (maybe minus a few crazy cases). You could probably take a whole bottle of xanax and you’ll just black out. The body absorbs benzos at a certain rate, and the threshold cant be broken to cause a deadly overdose.
Twelve Bar Blues?
They smoked Pearl Jam, STP and Nirvana created some amazing music that will live on
Nirvana really wasnt THAT great...good but not this good
I like STP, but Pearl Jam was and is a better band than them and Nirvana...in my "humble" opinion that is : )
Jimmy C I agree 💯!!!! Those two bands were phenomenal and totally defined the 90's!!!...both also broke my heart when they died. 😔
word..Scott and kurt, true artists, true poets
So sad, and weirdly, he died on my b-day. I feel privileged to have seen STP five times, and also Velvet Revolver as well. RIP Scott, you're STILL missed!
Scott was so underrated because he refused to sell his soul for fame, unlike most of his peers.
Dammit I miss this dude! I hope you found peace Scott. I still jam STP constantly. Thank you for all the music.
His self awareness at end of video saddening.
A hallmark trait of heroin addicts is the lack of self awareness brought about by repetitive escapes from reality. You are reading something into still photographs that doesn’t jibe with his behavior at the time. Projection is a defense mechanism used to deal with grief. Fascinating example
made me tear up a bit ngl
Sad to say, but Scott is a study in a very talented, very tortured human being. RIP
