    Jerry wrote this song about his dad's experience in Vietnam. His dad suffered alot of trauma and as a result he lost the relationship he had with his son. When Jerry showed the song to his dad he asked "Did I get close to the vibe and mindset of being there?" and his dad said "You got too close". It was this song that rekindled their relationship. At live shows they used to bring his dad onstage before they played Rooster.

    Layne Staley was for one of the greatest vocalists in history and that took Alice in chains and grunge to another level. Rooster is a true symbol of the genre and the depth and complexity of the lyrics goes beyond the name. Anyone who has served in the military or is a war veteran identifies with this song. I can't help crying every time I hear it.

  • @telemperor
    @telemperor 3 года назад +11

    The PTSD that many vets suffer is from the trauma of constantly being in danger or watching people die, particularly if you knew the person, but seeing anyone die is traumatizing. They also additionally can have physical wounds, survivor's guilt, anxiety and depression. They can see themselves as unredeemable, especially if they are deeply religious. Just offer to be there and listen, 33 vets a day commit suicide or at least that was the stat last I checked.

    Jerry's father was in the Vietnam war. He wrote this song for his dad's experience. His dad Mr. Cantrell nick name in the war was Rooster. Between Jerry and Layne this song is bad ass! Layne is the best male vocalist of the time and all time IMO!! Rest in peace Layne and Mike!

    Another comment for reaction suggestions...
    Would?, Rain When I Die, Nutshell, Man in the Box, Down in a Hole, Love Hate Love (Live from the Moore). A lot of people are going to suggest stuff from their MTV Unplugged. While I love that show, I don't recommend them for reactions. Layne (lead vocalist) was pretty destroyed by heroin at that point, and his vocals weren't what they used to be.
    For more Layne vocals, he was in a supergroup called Mad Season. "River of Deceit" and "Wake Up" are both amazing from that.

    My dad earned the bronze Star in Vietnam. He enlisted before they could draft him, so he could pick his speciality... paratrooper. He was a senior in high school. He parachuted behind enemy lines to scout positions, he lost many friends doing this. He was also a tumble rat, he was a small guy, that went into booby trapped tunnels to gather any Intel left behind. My father came home to a nation that hated him. He threw all of his medals into the river after the VA failed to help him. My father was never the same. Unable to hold a job, alcoholic and traumatized. Made sure he had a military funeral, with all the honors when I lost him. They owed him that. I made sure he was honored. We owed him that.

    Jerry Cantrell Jr. (guitarist) wrote this for his father who served in the Vietnam war. Jerry's family split because of the scars the war left on his father and they were estranged for a while. He wrote this song in an attempt to reach out to his dad. When he asked his dad if he got close to what he went through in war his father said 'you got too close'. Father and son did rebuild their relationship and Jerry's very proud of this song and his father.

    I had an 'Instructor' (1981-83) @ US Army Academy of Health Sciences Fort Sam Houston. We used to call him "Scrotum Neck" because the Skin & Muscle on the back of his neck was twisted and gouged all over the place. Close to the 'End Of Cycle Training' he came into the Barracks and gathered us all around and took off his hat and shirts, spread out his arms and turn around nice & slow for all of us to see.. His ENTIRE back looked like it had been through a freaking 'Meat Grinder'.. The MAN was literally 'Scarred' from the top backside of his neck all the way past his 'Beltline' and around his midsection.
    He told us "Some of you may end up in 'Combat' and I PRAY none of you young men will have to go through being 'Napalmed' ". Needless to say we ALL ST8 felt like the 'Scum Of The Earth' for making 'Jokes' about him behind his back..
    He said he was only wearing his thin O.D. Green 'T Shirt' at the time and it just melted away as he and his 'Buddies' tried to wipe it off the Napalm that just stuck to their hands and pulled layers of skin off his back when they tried.. Said it was "Like Sticky FIRE Jelly" and would not simply wipe off.
    Out of all of my memories from 30+ yrs ago during 'Training & Learning & through
    That is the most 'Embedded' memory that i have of my time in the United States Military.
    I THANK ALL the Men & Women that have EVER 'Served' and those that 'Will Serve'..
    NOT all of us former Military went to War, but we ALL fully knew that 'PTSD WAR Memories' may happen to each and every 1 of us at any given time.
    I Thank God that i personally never had to 'Endure' such..

    "I Watched My Friends Die."
    I heard that numerous times from my parents generation who were in Vietnam. It didn't really hit me until I was given more details when I got a couple close relatives deep into the bottle. My old man didn't tell me that the only other grunt who took him under his wing, and started teaching him how to survive in the 'Nam, died right in front of him within a few weeks. Nobody else wanted to befriend him, thinking he'd died soon anyway, but this one guy did. And my old man watched him get shot to hell, jumping out of their hole and moving forward because he was the first of two, right in front of him. Stories like that have weight, given first-hand.
    Anyway, this song always reminds me of my old Vietnam vet dad. Plus my uncle, and their friends back in the life. I certainly had a different upbringing than some.

    There was a psychological study that had concluded that the reason you get a song stuck in your head is because you cannot remember the ending of the song. They conclude that in order to get the song out of your head is to find the end of the song.
    The producers of this album had heard about that study.... so that is why the beginning of many Alice in Chain songs sound familiar to the end --- so that you CAN'T find the end of the song!

My younger brother beat my ass because he was in a flashback and I was just trying to fend him off enough to realize it was me. I ended up with a broken nose, a busted head, and black eyes and a swollen face before he snapped back into reality and realized he wasn't back in the battle but in fact here in the states. You don't come back the same after going into that! There isn't enough support for them and what they go through! Not even close to enough support!

      My brother went to a therapist after he and I had our altercation and got to where he could handle it but it took him doing to someone he cared about (me) before he realised it was a problem. You never know how it's going to affect them!

    Thank you gentlemen for the video you provided, us troops think happened put upon us in our past. We literally sit here waiting for a war. We have trained to such an extent that war is the only thing we wish for. I am a marine corps vet, yet all I think about is about the next war. I cannot speak for all vets, but all of my buddies who I know are waiting

    I know you have seen or heard of "PTSD" (Post traumatic stress disorder) . Many veterans who have served end up with PTSD at some point.

    You guys need to do Alice In chain unplugged (live show) frogs, down in a hole or nutshell. Truly amazing performance.

    if you guys want to see some military related songs, you should start with a reaction to "Wrong Side of Heaven" by Five Finger Death Punch......lots of facts there you probably never knew and a great song. And guys....you don't know what you are capable of until you are put into certain situations. My husband and I both are combat veterans. We love our country and do what is necessary to preserve its integrity.

    Guitarist Jerry Cantrell wrote Rooster about his father's experiences in Vietnam and when Jerry saw his dad in the audience at one of their shows when AIC opened for Iggy Pop, and Jerry asked Layne (and the guys) to play Rooster and they did. It was the first time Jerry's dad heard Jerry's music and knew that his son understood him through that song. It brought Jerry and his dad closer together. And Layne had a vital part in that reunion. (Meanwhile Layne's own biological father was an opportunist).
    Jerry's dad was nicknamed Rooster when he was a kid and his hairstyle resembled that of a rooster comb. Although, maybe he used rooster as a call sign during his military career. But he didn't earn the nickname in the military, he had the nickname back when he was a kid.
    Jerry Cantrell, Sr had multiple tours in Vietnam and like most Vietnam vets, he didn't talk about it. The most he ever said about it was at the beginning of the official video for Rooster which he agreed to be a part of after hearing the song. Like all kids who hate their parents, Jerry Cantrell was no different. He was staying in a small guest room in Chris Cornell's house (Cornell was married to AIC manager Susan Silver) and the guest room had a tiny window. He was staying there and thought about what his dad may have experienced and wrote the lyrics.
    They demoed Rooster and Would? when they spent two days working on the acoustic songs for the SAP EP. The songs on SAP and those two songs were demoed using the money Cameron Crowe gave them for recording Would? for the SINGLES movie.
    The harmony in the beginning and end on the album is Ann Wilson of Heart, but Layne does the harmonies on the official video and live versions perfectly.
    Layne Staley sang the hell out of Rooster (and Would?) in the official video and album. When they toured on the Dirt album, the way Layne sang Rooster in Tillburg, The Netherlands in 1993... about 2 minutes and 5 seconds into the song Jerry missed a chord and Layne looked over at him like "Dude! WTFH was that?", but then Layne let loose and his "yeahs" and screams were so clear and loud, I'm surprised the rafters didn't come crashing down around him.
    Knowing how he sang Rooster in Tilburg, The Netherlands, in 1993 when his “yeahs” and screams were so loud and high I’m surprised the rafters didn’t come crashing down around him and then watch him sing the same song so low-key on Unplugged knowing he could do to the song what he did in Tilburg is heartbreaking. Knowing he initially sang the hell out of Would? on the official video and album and seeing the end of Would? on Unplugged . . . and knowing how deep into his addiction he had gotten by that point is heartbreaking.
    That line "they spit on me in my homeland." TV News anchor Walter Kronkite basically told the American public that we lost the war and between that and the college kids (who went to college to escape being drafted into the military) would protest the soldiers coming home. They would do protest rallies at the airports and protest the returning soldiers by spitting at them, throwing urine and other stuff on them. An uncle of mine drove a supply truck in Vietnam (to this day he won't talk about his experience). A family friend of ours said that he and his buddies came home, saw the protesters at the airport, and re-enlisted because it was safer in Vietnam than in the US with the protesters. At least in Vietnam, they knew who the enemy was. I'm NOT saying Vietnam was anything the US should have ever been in. I'm just relating stories of people I know who served there.
    My Top 20 AIC songs... Love Hate Love (Live at the Moore, December 1990...Layne Staley in his prime and is UNTOUCHABLE PERFECTION performed live by a rock band. All other rock bands should strive to have a live performance this perfect), Man in the Box (Live at Weedsport, NY 1991 - the Layne’s Pissed Version...though the original version may be better to react to, because Weedsport was during Clash of the Titans tour where Slayer fans were giving the band crap and Layne got pissed and changed the lyrics), Bleed the Freak (Live at the Moore, December 1990), It Ain’t Like That (if you need a video use Singles Pro Shot video), Queen of the Rodeo (Live in Dallas, TX 1990), Real Thing (Live ANYWHERE), Them Bones, God Smack (Live at Hollywood Rock, 1993), Grind, Again, No Excuses, Brush Away, Frogs, Sludge Factory (During MTV Unplugged 1996, Layne screwed up the 2nd verse like 8 times, though the show only included one of those times), What the Hell Have I, God Am, Got Me Wrong, Swing On This, Social Parasite, We Die Young

    Everyone else has given you the background of the song, so I’ll skip that and go straight to a suggestion. Check out the song “Love,hate,love” live at the Moore theater. You really get a sense of how powerful Layne vocals are in that live version of the song. My absolute favorite band, and Jerry Cantrell is my all time favorite guitarist.
