Temple of the Dog was a one album tribute to Andrew Wood, a musician friend of Cornell's that died of an overdose. The other singer is Eddie Vedder from Pearl Jam.
@@davidhohn9106 The other singer was Andrew Wood, lead singer of Mother Love Bone and Chris's best friend and roomate. Beforer Pearl Jam were Mookie Blaylock they were Mother Love Bone. Most of the music on the first two Pearl Jam albums are MLB music, that they had written for that band, and as you can tell everything after that lost the groove (love rock).
And you already did Pearl Jam (Eddie Vedder), strange you didn‘t recognize him. And please do Funkadelic - Maggot Brain, the best solo guitar performance ever.
I just realized how blessed I was to have Kurt Cobain, Layne Staley, and Chris Cornell throughout my college years!!!🥲 I made it through with their music. RIP brothas.🤘🏾
"I don't mind stealin bread From the mouths of decadence But I can't feed on the powerless When my cup's already overfilled" I have always taken this song to mean that the singer would go hungry before taking from someone who has less than himself.
My take was always that the song was about the wealth/power divide in society and Chris' struggle with switching roles and now becoming part of the rich/powerful class. He has been blessed and his cup is now overfilled. I feel like he is promising himself not to become part of the problem or ever forget where he came from.
The song is about Ticketmaster, how they gouge the customers. Basically they didn't want to charge outrageous prices for concert goers, but Ticketmaster was charging too much... how can they feed on the powerless (the fans) when their cup is already overfilled. (Them already rich they don't need more).
@@TheInsaneShecklador That's always been my take too. I'll have to go Google this but it seemed like this project was connected to a charitable organization or they donated the proceeds.
So… guess what??? You know the lead singer of Temple of the Dog from past reactions. The guy with the higher voice is Chris Cornell and the other singer is Eddie Vedder from Pearl Jam. RIP Chris. We miss you😢
More funny is the guitarists are Mike McCready from Pearl Jam, Stone Gossard, from Pearl Jam, bass is Jeff Ament, Pearl Jam and last but not least, drums are manned by Matt Cameron, from both Sound Garden and Pearl Jam. When fate brings everyone together in the end.
That's a B4 - it can be hard for females to hit that note, esp w/ that kind of power... then when he goes up on "no I don't mind", that's an E5 - nope nope nope for me!!
@@steviekc9057 Yep, as a 20 y/o back then, the first time I heard that line, I knew I'd found "my" band/artist! BUT then.... I heard Eddie Vedder's voice and Pearl Jam a few months later, and I knew I'd found my genre PERIOD and NUFF SAID!! lol!! LONG LIVE GRUNGE!!! ;)

TEMPLE OF THE DOG album was released April '91 and Pearl Jam's 1st album "TEN" was released just 4 months later, August '91.... I'd say that was fate.... SIDE NOTE: Out of Andrew Woods tragic passing, the band Pearl Jam was "born"..... they're celebrating the 30th anniversary of the release of their 1st album in August....

@@ericanthony Thank you Eric! The history of these grunge bands/the meteoric rise is as fascinating as it is tragic.... and, I LOVE "Chloe Dancer/Crown of Thorns" and Andrew's voice!! So sad he didn't live long enough to see what his influence spawned.... he inspired the hell out of Chris (and many of the others).... I know he's happy up there knowing that what he started turned into one of the 4 greats of the Grunge bands and ultimately ended up being the ONLY band left out of them (due to the deaths of the other 3 singers).... I wonder sometimes if Andy's death was part of a grand plan.... and maybe he had a small part in "hand-picking" Eddie to succeed him?? Either way, their music and stories are incredible!! I hope one day we can get Leo to do "Say Hello To Heaven".... I saw an interview with Chris (from the early '00's) where Chris said he was pissed at Andy for dying and he wrote down all his feelings and all the things he wanted to say to him and it became that song. He went onto say that it's basically a letter to Andy.... K, I'll shush now! lol!! See you around.... :)
@@ericanthony omg yes!! Mother Love Bone and Andrew were one of the original "grunge" bands. The entire Seattle scene brought out some amazing music. I lived for the song Chloe dancer. Damn I miss those days, but only for the music. Too many lost from those days, so much music silenced.
Woohoo!!! You're on fire Leo. Keep up with the grunge genre, it's a depressingly beautiful, lost art. Edit: Check out Alice in chains "Brother" MTV unplugged.
This was a mash-up of the guys from Mother Love Bone and Soundgarden to commemorate after Andy died and Eddie was coming into the orbit as Pearl Jam was forming from the ashes.
Wow, have never heard song or group, new song on playlist, I'm 67 still love finding new music, Thank you for playing and who recommending. Enjoy your journey
Hahaha!! I had to pause and comment.... the last time you heard Eddie Vedder sing (Jeremy" or "Black", I can't remember which PJ reaction), you said if you tried to sing like him you'd sound like a cat getting it's head smooshed up against the wall!! This time, you said you'd sound like Bart Simpson!! The stuff that comes out of your mouth is hysterical and BRILLIANT!! Lol!! Thanks for your "Leo-isms"!!! ;) ;)
I think the lyric is “I can’t feed on the powerless when my cup’s already overfilled.” Meaning I can’t do things to push the less fortunate down when I’m as fortunate as I am. I think haha
Chris Cornell is the one artist that has had such a profound impact on my life . His beautiful powerhouse balled that is his voice was a comfort to me always but especially in my darkest days . Chris made me feel like it was ok not to feel ok ..He was there with me every step of the way since the 90's and he still is because I cannot go a day without listening to him. I saw him in concert in 2005 just 2 months after my little brother died and I wanted to just die. but hearing Chris Screaming " Be YOURSELF BOSTON !" will be in my fucking soul for all eternity
Man, Chris and Eddie were gorgeous in their prime with their beautiful hair. Great reaction! This song touches my soul. Eddie’s and Chris’ are sure something special as a duo. 👍🏼👋🏼👏🏼🙌🏼💜🇨🇦
The story behind this is the singer with the high voice, Chris Cornell, was roommates and close friends with Andy Woods, who was the singer of a band called Mother Love Bone. Andy died of a drug overdose. Chris Cornell joined forces with some the remaining guys of Mother Love Bone to form Temple of the Dog for one album in tribute to Andy. The guys of Mother Love Bone, replaced Andy on vocals with Eddie Vedder (the guy with the lower voice and growl here) and they became Pearl Jam. The Temple of the Dog album came out before Pearl Jam released it's first album, so they weren't really famous yet, but Temple of the Dog includes guys that would all go on to be absolutely HUGE: Soundgarden, Pearl Jam, Audio Slave, etc.. Unsurprisingly, the Temple of the Dog album is a true masterpiece.
True Chris and Andy were roommates at one point but more importantly they were best friends. Secondly, Soundgarden/Chris Cornell already had their record deal, had released their 1st album AND had a hit on the radio when Andy tragically OD'd and died. (Andy and Mother Love Bone also had their record deal in place and were up-and-coming)..... Thirdly, the T.O.T.D. album consists of..... 1)Chris Cornell: lead singer of SOUNDGARDEN- and close friend of Andrew Wood 2) Matt Cameron: drummer of SOUNDGARDEN- and friend of Andrew Wood 3) Stone Gossard: lead guitar of MOTHER LOVE BONE and close friend of Andrew Wood 4) Jeff Ament: Bass guitar of MOTHER LOVE BONE and close friend of Andrew Wood 5) Mike KcCready: rythm guitar of THE SCREAMING TREES and friend of Andrew Wood ***** MEMBERS OF PEARL JAM.... (compare with the T.O.T.D. members above) are.... 1)Matt Cameron: drummer 2) Stone Gossard: lead guitar 3) Jeff Ament: Bass guitar 4) Mike Mcready: Rythm guitar 5) Eddie Vedder: Lead singer **So this one-time tribute album (to Andrew Wood) was inspired and written by Chris Cornell for Andy and he gathered some of their close friends (only 2 of whom were Andy's former band mates in Mother Love Bone) to record it. All members (with the exception of Chris) did go on to become Pearl Jam.... this album was released in April '91 and Pearl Jam's 1st album "TEN" was released just 4 months later in August '91..... SIDE NOTE: Eddie Vedder is only on this one song and it is ONLY because he was in the studio waiting for his audition with Stone and Jeff for their new lead singer position (due to Andrew's death)..... To quote the Chris Cornell: "I was struggling to get my vocals to sound the way I was hearing them in my head. Then this guy Eddie, quietly but with some balls, walked up to the mic and started singing. I liked it. We did a few run throughs and the rest is history"..... Just wanted to share... Peace.... :)
The drummer and singer are from Soundgarden (the singer later was in Audioslave) and the rest of the band including the other singer were at that time forming Pearl Jam. This band was a side project they did in honor of Andrew Wood, the singer for MotherLoveBone, who was friends with all of them and was in that band with two of the guys that play here and formed Pearl Jam because he sadly died of a drug overdose and the band had to break up. The singer for Pearl Jam was just joining the band and getting to know these guys and he was invited to duet on this song, which was his first major recording because it came out before Pearl Jam's first record. These days the same drummer actually plays in Pearl Jam, so Temple of the Dog is basically current Pearl Jam plus Chris Cornell, Soundgarden's singer doing lead vocals, with Ed Vedder doing backup vocals in some songs.
"But I can't feed on the powerless when my cup's already overfilled" I always took that as I can't continue to take from people who don't have anything or access to get anything when I already have more than enough.
This was the single album supergroup for Grunge. Before it broke out, the lead singer of a band called Mother Love Bone had died. The members of Soundgarden would hang out with some of the remaining members of Mother Love Bone and their new singer (to become Pearl Jam). So they decided to do a tribute album together. The whole thing is fire.
Temple of the Dog was a 1-off project written by Chris Cornell in 1991 as a mourning tribute to his friend Andrew Wood, the lead singer of Mother Love Bone who died of an OD in 1990... Wood's former bandmates helped record it... and subsequently formed Pearl Jam that year...
The labels are cutting off their own nose to spite their faces. You remind people of good music again!! They should be happy, so many awesome songs from my time was lost and now they are re-revealed to be enjoyed by a new generation. You're also crossing genres and exposing those to good stuff who wouldn't normally listen. Please don't let them stop you, people like me need this! You're making my heart smile 😀
In Seattle, when bands like Nirvana, Pearl Jam and Soundgarden started getting recognized, many of the musicians had been playing live with one another.
"I can't feed on the powerless when my cup's already overfilled"... Chills...Cornell (RIP) and Vedder singing together. .. PRICELESS. Thanks Leo for doing this one. Love you.
Great song from temple of the dog bro eddie vedder lead singer of pearl jam and chris cornell r.i.p lead singer of soundgarden and audioslave were a great duo. Say hello to heaven is another great one by them🎶🔥🎶 hunger strike
One of my favorite songs! Love Eddie and still love Chris. His voice is that of a legend, Chris gone too soon. Passed away on my birthday. RIP Chris. And Eddie keep going like you always dom amazing artist!
I love seeing the Puget Sound ( the water) in the background...the 2 leads on vocals are Chris Cornell from Soundgarden and Audioslave and Eddie Vedder from Pearl Jam ❤️
YESSSSSS....👍👍👍 I was just going to make the suggestion. I had tried in the past, but maybe now is as good a time as any.... Chris Cornell birthday tomorrow, 20th July 1964...RIP😓
This is the best! Good stuff! Hunger Strike Rest in sweet peace Chris. Two days ago you reacted to Chris Cornell performing Prince " Nothing Compares 2 U". Eddie Vedder does an amazing job of holding a note/tone for a long period of time allowing Chris to Shine. Eddie is very shy and always seems to be having an out of body experience when he sings.
This was a tribute album by Soundgarden and Pearl Jam to Andrew Wood, lead singer of Mother Love Bone. Stargazer or Chloe Dancer/Crown of Thorns to hear Andrew Wood
Temple of the Dog is Chris Cornell (vocals) and Matt Cameron (drums) from Soundgarden with Eddie Vedder (other vocals), Mike McCready (guitar), Stone Gossard (also guitar), and Jeff Ament (bass) from Pearl Jam, but before Pearl Jam had released any albums. It was a magical moment in music history. Temple of the Dog was only a thing for one album, but the other must-hear song is Say Hello 2 Heaven, which is arguably the reason the album exists in the first place.
Stone, Jeff, Mike from Pearl Jam + Chris Cornell, Matt from Soundgarden = Temple of the Dog. 2nd singer was Eddie Vedder from Pearl Jam (before PJ actually existed). This was the only track Vedder had any lead vocals. That's why they probably seem familiar.
His facial expression is a testament and attestation to the meaning and purpose of the song. This song has a huge amount of intent in purpose and historical significance. Here we have two great artists collaborating on delivery and juxtaposition in order to deliver one clear message.
This was a huge hit, and Say Hello To Heaven & Reach Down received a lot of airplay too, but many people don't realize how many really good songs were on that album. Used to play it front to back constantly. Four Walled World & Wooden Jesus were 2 of my favorites.
"Where the hell did they get these voices from?" Seattle 💚 And yeah they were definitely brothers, not from the same parents, but bonded together by music. Eddie (the shorter one with the low voice and "the look" you were talking about) was actually very shy about singing in front of others at first. Chris (the taller one with the high voice) was a real leader in the Seattle music scene and really helped connect a lot of the musicians here. He took Eddie under his wing and helped him get over his shyness. Who knows if he would've been able to be the lead singer of Pearl Jam all these years without that. Here's a pretty great little clip I found about it the other day (for some reason there's no sound in the first 20 seconds, FYI). Be sure to watch thru to the end when they're on stage together - you'll definitely see how much they were brothers :) ruclips.net/video/X14DPrKqBWo/видео.html
First singer is Chris Cornell of Sound Garden and the second is Eddie Vedder of Pearl Jam. You've reacted to both groups. this was a temporary "super group" formed of people from both groups as a tribute to a mutual friend and singer they lost.
After many years I finally picked my favorite male vocalist...Eddie Bedder. And I'm talkin Al Green, Elvis, Peter Gabriel etc.....all in contention!!! He stirs my soul
Your take on this song was perfect. You nailed it in terms of the meaning. I especially liked how you described Vedder's expression at 6:45. He does look like a man possessed, but then again that's often the case with Vedder. lol
Yes brother Leo, This is a conglomeration of some amazing Musicians. It hurts my heart to listen to Chris these days, but their catalogue is extensive and you'll never go wrong listening to anything, any of them have recorded. 🤗🙌🥃
Dang I miss Chris. At this point we need to put Vedder in bubble wrap.

I remember Eddie getting so emotional in concert after Chris died....we miss you man!
You must check Temple of the Dogs " Say Hello to Heaven " The Tribute to Andrew Wood version. One of the most passionate songs i`ve ever heard.
There's a version I've seen of Temple Of The Dog performing that song live for the first time. So much emotion from Chris.
"Say Hello to Heaven" is another masterpiece by Temple of the Dog.

The Temple of the Dog album came out before Pearl Jam released it's first album, so they weren't really famous yet, but Temple of the Dog includes guys that would all go on to be absolutely HUGE: Soundgarden, Pearl Jam, Audio Slave, etc.. Unsurprisingly, the Temple of the Dog album is a true masterpiece.
True Chris and Andy were roommates at one point but more importantly they were best friends. Secondly, Soundgarden/Chris Cornell already had their record deal, had released their 1st album AND had a hit on the radio when Andy tragically OD'd and died. (Andy and Mother Love Bone also had their record deal in place and were up-and-coming)..... Thirdly, the T.O.T.D. album consists of.....
1)Chris Cornell: lead singer of SOUNDGARDEN- and close friend of Andrew Wood
2) Matt Cameron: drummer of SOUNDGARDEN- and friend of Andrew Wood
3) Stone Gossard: lead guitar of MOTHER LOVE BONE and close friend of Andrew Wood
4) Jeff Ament: Bass guitar of MOTHER LOVE BONE and close friend of Andrew Wood
5) Mike KcCready: rythm guitar of THE SCREAMING TREES and friend of Andrew Wood
***** MEMBERS OF PEARL JAM.... (compare with the T.O.T.D. members above) are....
1)Matt Cameron: drummer
2) Stone Gossard: lead guitar
3) Jeff Ament: Bass guitar
4) Mike Mcready: Rythm guitar
5) Eddie Vedder: Lead singer
**So this one-time tribute album (to Andrew Wood) was inspired and written by Chris Cornell for Andy and he gathered some of their close friends (only 2 of whom were Andy's former band mates in Mother Love Bone) to record it. All members (with the exception of Chris) did go on to become Pearl Jam.... this album was released in April '91 and Pearl Jam's 1st album "TEN" was released just 4 months later in August '91.....
SIDE NOTE: Eddie Vedder is only on this one song and it is ONLY because he was in the studio waiting for his audition with Stone and Jeff for their new lead singer position (due to Andrew's death).....
To quote the Chris Cornell: "I was struggling to get my vocals to sound the way I was hearing them in my head. Then this guy Eddie, quietly but with some balls, walked up to the mic and started singing. I liked it. We did a few run throughs and the rest is history".....
Just wanted to share... Peace.... :)
Man, thank you. This is one of my favorite songs ever
The drummer and singer are from Soundgarden (the singer later was in Audioslave) and the rest of the band including the other singer were at that time forming Pearl Jam. This band was a side project they did in honor of Andrew Wood, the singer for MotherLoveBone, who was friends with all of them and was in that band with two of the guys that play here and formed Pearl Jam because he sadly died of a drug overdose and the band had to break up. The singer for Pearl Jam was just joining the band and getting to know these guys and he was invited to duet on this song, which was his first major recording because it came out before Pearl Jam's first record. These days the same drummer actually plays in Pearl Jam, so Temple of the Dog is basically current Pearl Jam plus Chris Cornell, Soundgarden's singer doing lead vocals, with Ed Vedder doing backup vocals in some songs.
A truly phenomenal talent he was.
I hope he is at peace now, out there in the great beyond. 💙
Ok Leo! Hitting my jams today!
no doubt
"But I can't feed on the powerless when my cup's already overfilled"
I always took that as I can't continue to take from people who don't have anything or access to get anything when I already have more than enough.
Sooooo glad you did this one!!💘💘😘🇨🇦🇨🇦🌷🌷
I agree!! Two 👍great choice.
Even after all these years , I still get the chills I got hearing this for the first time back then .
Love it when Mr. Video gets high asf before his reactions 😆🤣😂
💯💚💨🎶
This was the single album supergroup for Grunge. Before it broke out, the lead singer of a band called Mother Love Bone had died. The members of Soundgarden would hang out with some of the remaining members of Mother Love Bone and their new singer (to become Pearl Jam). So they decided to do a tribute album together. The whole thing is fire.
Two of my favorite singers. I was a freshman in college when Hunger Strike came out. So glad I saw Chris Cornell in his lifetime❤️❤️❤️
Eddie Vedder and Chris Cornell….man what a duo! Love this song Leo!
Temple of the Dog was a 1-off project written by Chris Cornell in 1991 as a mourning tribute to his friend Andrew Wood, the lead singer of Mother Love Bone who died of an OD in 1990... Wood's former bandmates helped record it... and subsequently formed Pearl Jam that year...
The labels are cutting off their own nose to spite their faces. You remind people of good music again!! They should be happy, so many awesome songs from my time was lost and now they are re-revealed to be enjoyed by a new generation. You're also crossing genres and exposing those to good stuff who wouldn't normally listen. Please don't let them stop you, people like me need this! You're making my heart smile 😀
Did you say " Rabbit hole? "Try Eddy Vetter ukulele songs, the videos are amazing and the music is so haunting and beautiful!
This song was so ground breaking when it came out, in that it had 2 of the greatest voices in grunge singing there asses off together.
In Seattle, when bands like Nirvana, Pearl Jam and Soundgarden started getting recognized, many of the musicians had been playing live with one another.
The late, great, Chris Cornell. There will never be a rock voice as great. RIP
RIP Chris Cornell. An amazing performer ❤️
"I can't feed on the powerless when my cup's already overfilled"... Chills...Cornell (RIP) and Vedder singing together. .. PRICELESS. Thanks Leo for doing this one. Love you.
Great song from temple of the dog bro eddie vedder lead singer of pearl jam and chris cornell r.i.p lead singer of soundgarden and audioslave were a great duo. Say hello to heaven is another great one by them🎶🔥🎶 hunger strike
RIP Chris Cornell ... Eddie Vedder you're a god!
😅😅😅Leo doing the Eddie Vedder voice and attempting Cornell
Say hello to heaven for sure. Chris has godly vocals
One of my favorite songs! Love Eddie and still love Chris. His voice is that of a legend, Chris gone too soon. Passed away on my birthday. RIP Chris. And Eddie keep going like you always dom amazing artist!
"Say Hello to Heaven" would go well with your recent Chris Cornell choices Excellent choices btw.
Love me some 90s bangers 😎
Did you say"Rabbit Hole?" Check out Eddie Vedder's "Ukelele Songs"!! Just the man his instrument and a rock in the water in Hawaii!!
When you think ya tough & three minutes later you feel shattered. Vibed on Leo's Strength & I'm whole again. What a crazy ride 😁👆🎶
I love seeing the Puget Sound ( the water) in the background...the 2 leads on vocals are Chris Cornell from Soundgarden and Audioslave and Eddie Vedder from Pearl Jam ❤️
Yo Mr Video could you react to "SEASONS" by Chris Cornell?
I believe there are some reuploads you could react to.
YESSSSSS....👍👍👍 I was just going to make the suggestion. I had tried in the past, but maybe now is as good a time as any.... Chris Cornell birthday tomorrow, 20th July 1964...RIP😓
SEASONS is an excellent choice!
This is the best! Good stuff! Hunger Strike
Rest in sweet peace Chris.
Two days ago you reacted to Chris Cornell performing Prince " Nothing Compares 2 U". Eddie Vedder does an amazing job of holding a note/tone for a long period of time allowing Chris to Shine. Eddie is very shy and always seems to be having an out of body experience when he sings.
Mother Love Bone, the band that started the whole Seattle grunge scene. Chloe Daner.
This was a tribute album by Soundgarden and Pearl Jam to Andrew Wood, lead singer of Mother Love Bone. Stargazer or Chloe Dancer/Crown of Thorns to hear Andrew Wood
Yeah.. I second that request. Mother Love Bone would be great..
Chris had one of the most iconic and greatest voices in music, The guy knocks it out of the park every time.
Temple of the Dog is Chris Cornell (vocals) and Matt Cameron (drums) from Soundgarden with Eddie Vedder (other vocals), Mike McCready (guitar), Stone Gossard (also guitar), and Jeff Ament (bass) from Pearl Jam, but before Pearl Jam had released any albums. It was a magical moment in music history.
Temple of the Dog was only a thing for one album, but the other must-hear song is Say Hello 2 Heaven, which is arguably the reason the album exists in the first place.
That song's a whole message
2 of my favorite voices.
RIP Chris🖤
"Call me a dog" is a great song from them. RIP Chris Cornell
I love this song! Wonderful 90's grunge song!
Stone, Jeff, Mike from Pearl Jam + Chris Cornell, Matt from Soundgarden = Temple of the Dog.
2nd singer was Eddie Vedder from Pearl Jam (before PJ actually existed). This was the only track Vedder had any lead vocals.
That's why they probably seem familiar.
The song that launched one of the best scenes in history
His facial expression is a testament and attestation to the meaning and purpose of the song. This song has a huge amount of intent in purpose and historical significance. Here we have two great artists collaborating on delivery and juxtaposition in order to deliver one clear message.
This was a huge hit, and Say Hello To Heaven & Reach Down received a lot of airplay too, but many people don't realize how many really good songs were on that album. Used to play it front to back constantly. Four Walled World & Wooden Jesus were 2 of my favorites.
When he yelled "robin hood" i was like yaaaasssss lol
"Where the hell did they get these voices from?"
Seattle 💚
And yeah they were definitely brothers, not from the same parents, but bonded together by music. Eddie (the shorter one with the low voice and "the look" you were talking about) was actually very shy about singing in front of others at first. Chris (the taller one with the high voice) was a real leader in the Seattle music scene and really helped connect a lot of the musicians here. He took Eddie under his wing and helped him get over his shyness. Who knows if he would've been able to be the lead singer of Pearl Jam all these years without that. Here's a pretty great little clip I found about it the other day (for some reason there's no sound in the first 20 seconds, FYI). Be sure to watch thru to the end when they're on stage together - you'll definitely see how much they were brothers :) ruclips.net/video/X14DPrKqBWo/видео.html
First singer is Chris Cornell of Sound Garden and the second is Eddie Vedder of Pearl Jam. You've reacted to both groups. this was a temporary "super group" formed of people from both groups as a tribute to a mutual friend and singer they lost.
I was fortunate enough to grow up in Seattle as a teenager during the 90’s… being able to experience the grunge scene first hand was pretty amazing.
Great song, 90s vibes for days
After many years I finally picked my favorite male vocalist...Eddie Bedder. And I'm talkin Al Green, Elvis, Peter Gabriel etc.....all in contention!!! He stirs my soul
Chris Cornell had a great voice. RIP
Leo's Eddie Vedder impression is priceless. 😁
Stone Temple Pilots “Sex Type Thing” rocking bitching ass tune from the early 90s!!
Their harmonizing is incredible
2 great voices. 👍❤️ They understood their privilege before it was mainstream.
Love both of these dudes... Cornell and Vedder are both beasts and mastered their craft for sure!
Thanks for reacting to this man!
You're hilarious in your spontaneous reaction and depiction of the sound of vibrato in Eddie Vedder's voice, lol. Poor Bart.
That fucking intro man... That's hilarious... "How am I stealin' bread?!"
Nothing better than a joint and Mr video in the morning with a cup of coffee.
Great reaction
That humming tonal quality is called Vibrato ,Leo.. and let me tell you,
You got it too brother!
Your take on this song was perfect. You nailed it in terms of the meaning. I especially liked how you described Vedder's expression at 6:45. He does look like a man possessed, but then again that's often the case with Vedder. lol
Yes brother Leo,
This is a conglomeration of some amazing Musicians. It hurts my heart to listen to Chris these days, but their catalogue is extensive and you'll never go wrong listening to anything, any of them have recorded.
🤗🙌🥃
