One of my favorite soundgarden songs because of the drum track. If this song doesnt get your head moving, you just aint alive. So much emotion in it. The drum track as chris starts singing "i feel for you" toward the end of the song still gives me chills everytime i listen to it. Played perfectly. Really enjoyed watching this one.
Everyone always thinks Chris' songs are about love. Well they are, but not THAT kind of love... This one's about a crow. A crow that flies smack into Chris' window in the morning, breaking its neck in the process, and forcing him to finish it off with a brick in order to spare it additional pain. A flock of crows is called a MURDER (yeah, a murder of crows; cool, no?). Hence, he sings, "She lived like a murder how she'd fly so sweetly... but she died just like suicide." Let me explicate further: "Heard it from another room, eyes were waking up, just to fall asleep." It's early and he's sleeping; he hears the crow smack into his window, from the other room. "Dazed out in a garden bed with a broken neck lays my broken gift." He finds the wounded crow outside, like an odd little gift, lying dazed in the garden bed below the window. "Bit down on the bullet now, had a taste so sour, had to think of something sweet... with an ounce of pain, I wield a ton of rage... and my last ditch was my last brick, leant to finish her." He bites the bullet and decides, out of humanity, to finish the crow off and end its suffering; he picks up a brick from the garden and does it. "With eyes of blood and bitter blue, how I feel for you." He feels really, really, really bad. And decides to write a song about it.
Bruce Cropper Yup exactly. I knew this. Thanks for explaining it to others. It's such a beautiful song. It's one of my favorite Soundgarden songs and Soundgarden is my favorite band... wait so that must mean it's one of my most favorite songs EVER!!! YES!!! Lol I can agree to that.
Bruce Cropper Oh man...This is so surreal..I didn't know that.. I always thought this was an awkwardly haunting song...but not why.. Now I know why....It all makes sense... I just..think this is fucking absolutely compelling..about Chris... Beats the crap outta the bizarre antics from a man like Ozzy Osborne... Nada que ver...
Man english isn't my mother tongue but still I understand it and I'm able to comunicate, but you enlighted me about this song, I didn't know its context, thanks.
Holy cow, that was accurate! Really impressed by this, proof of it is I never leave comments on videos, but this one got me moving. Loved it, dude. Keep it up!
Beautiful drumming , totally nailed this beautiful song. Drums sound perfect ,just like the recording . Thanks for this , you have a great feel and play so beautifully .😂😂
Nice job (some editing aside, as noted from some other flaw-searching viewers). This makes me appreciate the song even more. "And I thought Kim Thayil was the only master musician....!"
that was killer. i was about to go to bed and hell, youtube sends this video as a suggestion...so i go, yeah, might as well watch this before i hit the sack. fuck, i´ll learn this song tomorrow. cameron is an amazing drummer and so are you.
I've always thought of it as a bit of a drum 'concerto'. Other than the guitar solo towards the end the song is entirely centred around the drums. Especially from 3:29
You did a fantastic job! I'm a drummer myself, have been for the last 6 years. For the last two years I've been wrapping my head around Tool and playing their music. I may not use music notes or printed paper but, I make it work. I may not have what is required to play the songs, but I improvise. Drumming is the one thing I put high self-expressions on. You did a great job on the song. Definitely one of my favorites. Thank you for spending you time to make this fantastic drum cover.
Dude I am digging the absolute f••k out of this! Great job, great tuning on the kit, and you threw your snare wires on so smoothly and quickly I damn near missed it. Thanks for this masterful cover.
Only someone who truly loves this song can play it with such careful attention to detail. Best drum cover of this song out there. Kudos!
Plot twist, this guy is really Matt.
+Alan Gibson Actually, the brands he use are exactly the same what Matt endorses. Yamaha, Zildjian, Remo and Vic Firth.
Haha good call AG
further twist. Matt forgot how, so he had to print out the drum tab

"It's been a while since i composed this."
XD
no He ain't
Your left foot timing on the high hats is spot on throughout.
I keep coming back from time to time to watch this great video.

Soundgarden were masters of the craft. Technically brilliant and full of jet engine rage.
Matt is like the Ringo Starr of grunge/alternative rock, He knows how to tell a story using drums. Nice cover bro!
Man... Simply perfect! The groove, the feel... Perfect!
Whoever thumbs downed this video deserves to get their thumbs cut off. This was PERFECT. Badass dude!
Matt Cameron would be proud of that.
THE song that made me want to learn the drums.
Matt is unmatched when it comes to snappy fills over a slow groove.
😉VERY🔊COOL😎!!! ABSOLUTELY💯AMAZING🎼JOB, BRO!!!
👊🏿"STYLES"👊🏿!!!
Couple edits but very talented indeed.
I took the time to sit and accurately learn this. My full vocabulary expanded like magic. Matt Cameron is my true hero.
I loved loved loooooved this! This is one of my favorite songs EVER! I've always loved the drums in it.
when i first heard this song when i was a kid i listened to it nonstop for a few weeks...20 yrs later i coudl STILL listen to it NON. STOP.
Me too 100%. Fav song of all time.
Nicely done. Great tune, great band, great cover!
Screaming Life.me too for sure. Read my comment. Were on the same page on this
Kit sounds amazing man. Love the hypnotic groove of this song
Wow! Your kit sounds great, especially the cymbals! That ride bell is right *there*.

One of mine as well! Chris Cornell is my most favorite of voices ever! I love Sound Garden!
Well shit, I've been listening to this song for 20 years and never knew this. Thanks for this.

Wow - you really nailed the feel of this song perfectly!!! Incredible. Probably one of the best drums covers I've seen on RUclips.
I've watched this a handful of times now, great cover of a great song
Josh steffen does legendary covers also
It all makes sense to me now. Thanks. By the way, stellar job man. Greetings from Nazaré, Portugal.
I wish you did more covers, I enjoy these alot! nice playin'
You sir have my utmost respect.
this song has always been about the drums for me. its one reference i use when shopping for speakers and audio equipment,
I've always thought of it as a bit of a drum 'concerto'. Other than the guitar solo towards the end the song is entirely centred around the drums. Especially from 3:29
Incredible work
Stark! 🙂💪👏
Nice.... One of my favourite song of Soundgarden, it's one of the masterpieces from Matt Cameron. Congratulations!!
