- When we first met the guys in Blacktop Mojo, we knew we'd collaborate on a tune someday. And here it is! A tribute to Mr. Chris Cornell, Eddie Vedder, and Temple of the Dog. Here's our cover of "Hunger Strike" featuring Matt James, lead singer of Blacktop Mojo.

Lyrics:
I don't mind stealing bread
From the mouths of decadence
But I can't feed on the powerless
When my cup's already overfilled
But it's on the table
The fire's cooking
And they're farming babies
The slaves are all working
Blood is on the table
The mouths are all choking
But I'm goin' hungry, yeah
#SmallTownTitans #BlacktopMojo #HungerStrike
Both of these bands are criminally underrated.
Thanks for that Brad! Feel free to share with a friend! - Jonny
for sure!!!! goosebumps all time hearin this collaboration!
@@SmallTownTitans I don't share with just my friends, but I make sure my neighbors coworkers and complete strangers know who both these bands are.
I absolutely love this version. I sincerely wish they'd go on tour together. I'd pay top dollar to see them.
Soulful
The fact this doesn't have tens of millions of views sums up the state of the music industry these days. I thought it'd be impossible to do this song justice but these guys are so talented!
All 101 people who disliked this video don't understand music
Wordimusprime!rockfist!
Right? I mean what kids nowadays call music should speak in volumes of what is considered music much less understanding it.
@@brianmeek9597 Check out Daughtry and Lajon's version - 1000% better. Just my opinion. Daughtry does Chris Cornell justice!
Im 41 years old and live in Washington state my whole life. Grew up on on pearl jam,nirvana, and alice in chains. These guys kick ass . This version and there Mr . Grinch is awesome
Holy shit the harmony between you 2 is absolutely amazing. Gave me the goosebumps
I came here to say the same thing! Such talent and range!
When they both switched back and forth between Chris’ and Eddie’s parts! Very impressed.
Fuck, I know right!!! Mind fuck
Chris Cornell would be proud!! 💯💯💯💯
Eddie vedder is
I agree, probably one of the best covers I think.
Best cover of Hunger Strike I have ever heard!! Beyond excellent!!! Love this band!!!
Zero down likes is truth
Somebody make these guys main stream. They are incredible.
Jobear just came across this song they are just ok in my opinion
@@rickylawson6588 Nope I heard Temple of the Dog a long, long time ago. I just really like the sound of these guys. This one was ok but the holiday songs they do are outstanding in my opinion.
They wont go mainstream cause they dont want to go " Mainstream " they have no intention to sell their souls to a record label. No contracts, write what they want, no permissions needed...
They serve the art. But i get it, more people should see them and be inspired to serve too.
Yeah, incredible how they can sound so similar to a robot
How does this not have minimum 10 million views, these fellas are unreal
I don't know why WTF
Awesome job. Keepin’ Chris’ memory alive!
hope you like my version 2 ruclips.net/video/-ROAyTGEn-I/видео.html
A lucky couple of dudes to be blessed with voices that can easily cover any song by Chris. Can't tell you how jealous I am.
That song is sacred ground and you did it justice my friend. Great Job!
Damn, this literally made me tear up with how well this was done. Kudos.
Absolutely floored. Fkn unbelievable talent. What a performance ❤️🤘
Just got turned on to these guys by my best bro- if you dont like this then you do not like music or appreciate talent..period.
Excellent job S.T.T.
INCREDIBLE! Matt James joining you guys for this song was 100% spot on! Can't wait to see you come through Chicago!
Thank you! Looking forward to visiting the Windy City! - Phil
The hair on my arms is standing up ya know how when a song hits just right because it’s so damn good....ya 🤘🤘🤘
I have watched this on loop for an hour... This has woken something inside of me up to work hard with my vocals.. This is absolutely phenomenal.
Matt James is the greatest voice on this planet. He can literally cover ANY genre.
True talent gets overlooked these days and this band is proof.
Well...all I can say is...DAMN!! That is one of the best covers I have ever heard! Two power house singers, and even the guitar player kicked in on vocals. Keep it up gentlemen...
One of the BEST covers of ALL time. The harmony is amazing!! These 2 bands should be tour together
Why are these guys not on the radio? They are so talented
It takes real talent and BALLS to take on such an iconic song and pull it off. Congratulations on having both! OUTSTANDING!!!
Damn, I havent been this moved by this song since I first heard it when it released. What an awesome tribute to Chris (RIP!)
Thanks guys for reviving the rock n roll revolution. This is a ray of hope.
The ending is my favorite part everybody singing I'm going hungry in different octaves to harmonize just sounds so good!
You two guys have incredible voices. You’re a Mean One, Dream On, and In The Air Tonight along with many others had already shown that. This is a real treasure to have you both singing together! Thanks for getting him in on this! It just made it that much more special!
The original will never be topped, but good work.
Deric Gregory, was gonna say something like that. I think y’all can really, but leave this one alone.
@@triplevee2198 Lets limit art, yay
Pancake Why be original when you can rip others off?
Impossible to fill Chris Cornell's shoes but these dudes did pretty fucking well. They both got some pipes.
Right on bro
What a great cover of a great song. Love that they didn't try to mimic the original iconic voices, but they do their own thing.
Love you guys!!! stilling listening to this in 2022 who else?
I’ve listened to this about 100 times and it gets better every time I hear it
One of my all time favorite songs. Great Cover
Chris Cornell was my all time favourite singer and now Phil Freeman is!! And now I'm hooked on Matt!! I have to check out Blacktop Mojo!!
Keep on rockin' down the house! 🎸
Geez I don't think that you guys know how amazing you really are. Bands and singers rarely feel the music in their bones like you do anymore. Even on RUclips you make us feel like we are in the room. AMAZING 😍
Pure talent from all sides. Small Town Titans and Blacktop Mojo are both on my repeat playlist....
Absolutely massive, IMHO the two most powerful voice in rock today. These guys have to tour together, talk about a guaranteed draw, they would sell out in every town.
Wow! Wow! Wow! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Sick, just sick as hell .. smokin' .. on point!~
Incredible.👍💪🇺🇸
Both Small town Titans and Blacktop mojo are so underappreciated I Love both Bands
One of my dreams is to see SST on Live from Daryl’s House, doing stuff like this.
beautifuljoe1313 Great idea. LFDH needs some new episodes and talent.
I have major goosebumps.. This is incredible!

Honestly, I was skeptical of this just because of how legendary the original is and living up to the memory of Cornell/Vedder didn't seem possible. They did this song justice and earned a massive standing ovation from me though. Bravo gentlemen!👍👏👏👏
oh my gosh!! nailed it! 🙌💪✌❤❤❤
I hope you never stop doing covers. Your approach to them is really honest, the work you all put into them is very visible, and they come off so polished. I'm not knocking your originals and I would never say to stop doing those, but if I'm being honest I really get a ton of enjoyment out of your takes on these covers. There is something to them that is paying respect to the originals while at the same time the nuance or little bit new take that you bring to them really makes them pop. What I'm trying to say is I have a ton of respect for how you make these songs your own without necessarily changing them very much. Just something in the way you perform them that really makes your covers special.
I doubt they'll stop. It's easy money.
@@John6-40 they don't do it for the money. Also, a 5 Octive vocal rang is far from " generic". How about stop trolling posts and take your negative shit elsewhere 🖕✌️
Extremely well done!!! A great homage you guys should be proud of! ... I miss Chris, but I think he’d be flattered!
You know Jonny is a Rockstar when you can hear someone go balls to walls singing Mr. Grinch....amazing
Fantástico!
My God! That range is unbelievable! Well Done, Gentlemen. You never cease to amaze me! 👍🏻
That brought forth the tears! Wow. Absolutely amazing!
The fact that you pulled off this Live in Studio all in one shot impresses me
wow what a great mix on vocals you two sound great together....thanks
id love to hear an alice in chains cover
Kenneth Shields rooster fuck yea
Kenneth Shields and GNR!
look up ben guiles on youtube. hes the guitarist he does an amazing cover of the rooster
Would?
Hell yeah
3:13 This is the Part i love the most!!!!!!
Wow, I've watched like 100 times and just noticed the King Ropes hat Matt James is wearing. Thanks for representing Wyoming 🤠
jaw dropping awesomeness; I haven't had that powerful a reaction to a group/song since "Subliminal Verses" was released.
thanks for feeding me and others who have been starved for true talent for years
Gave it a like before the video finished loading because this is one of my favorite songs. What a spot on magnificent cover.
I LOVE chris cornell, eddie vedder, temple of the dog. And YOUR VOICE. Good work to u and the band
Thank you for representing what Chris was trying to do. God bless! WWG1WGA
Great work. Good vocal harmonies, guitar work very tidy! Thumbs up!
Epic! You guys kill it man. Keep rockin, hope to see you guys at a concert one day.
MATT JAMES - BLACKTOP MOJO - You kick @ss friend!! Love it!
HOLY GOD. this guys voice. It sent a surge of electricity up my spine
MORE Grunge! MORE Grunge! MORE Grunge!!!!
How are you guys not filling stadiums
They are definitely a great band no doubt, but unfortunately the music industry is a complicated thing.
@@claystaggs8908 more like a bullshit thing.
@pupp woof whoa ... wait a fucking second. He sounds like nothing him. This sounds like a country-pop version of the song.
Someday Terry! World domination! 😎 - Jonny
They are
STILL INCREDIBLE this song the most bc of what a huge Chris Cornell fan I am but a lot of your guys covers and own songs kept me going thru a dark time. I'm not fully out of the woods but trying. And I listen to music to try and help myself. Thank you!
These two bands NEED to go on tour together
When i listen to this song... so do my neighbors
Mind Blowing F’n talent. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
You guys FREAKING ROCK! Keep on keeping on!✌️💙💚
Can't get enough of them.
Gotta see them live.
These guys are awesome❤❤❤
😲 Woah!!! Can't wait to hear this at your next show!! Absolutely flawless!
Saw the title and instantly knew I was in for a treat. Bravo! Can you not make it look so easy? lol
ruclips.net/video/-ROAyTGEn-I/видео.html
Haha we can try! 😉 Thank you! - Jonny
DAYAMN!!!
Can we talk about the vocal performance for one second. The harmony of the original song is what made it iconic. It's a true labor of talent to hit those notes in harmony. Amazing. Well done!
Well done y’all. One of my top songs from the day and you all slayed it. 🤘🏼🤘🏼
2 secs in and I said, this is gonna be awesome.

Best cover of this song
May I add that it seems like this was recorded in one take while filming it, I mean, as long as they didn't do a flawless job with lip synching?
I rarely, if ever, listen to cover bands, but this made me look them up on spotify and add them to my rotation ... absolutely stunning.
Absolutely LOVE this performance. Keep them coming - you have a Canadian fan for life. 🤗
Holy hell what a cover that was! Chris Cornell is no easy feat to try but absolutely nailed it! Great job man I hope you all make it big be so well deserved!
Matt James! Wonderful! Wonderful Voice! I gotta get out more!😂 great job all of you!
Wowow!!!!

Nailed it! You guys are amazing...as usual!
" Best New Rock Group in Many Years "
Beautiful 👍👍
I would love to have y’alls vocal ranges!!! Amazing stuff!
Hunter S Thompson sighting!
I have been a fan of both Pearl jam and Soundgarden and.. Well every other Seattle ban from the beginning. I've never heard a single cover of this song that's been worth a damn...
Until I stumbled across this gem.
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Simply fucking great. Huge fan of Small Town Titans and Blacktop Mojo. The present and future great rock music.
That bass tone is friggin sick.
Damn y'all!! Thats my all time favorite song and you rocked it. Need to figure out how to set this as my ringtone.
