peteb Posted May 18, 2017 Share Posted May 18, 2017 [color=#1D2129][font=Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif] [font=inherit] RIP Chris Cornell[/font] [font=inherit] I always will remember his tribute to Whitney Houston just after her untimely death, mainly because my Dad passed away just a couple of days later. I never thought that just over 5 years later it would serve as a tribute to Cornell himself. Such a genuinely gifted guy but despite all the talent, looks and success, some people just can’t leave their demons behind. Such a shame…[/font] [font=inherit] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OCY5lF7KV84[/font] [/font][/color] [color=#1D2129][font=Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif][size=3] [font=inherit] [font=inherit] [font=inherit] [font=inherit] [font=inherit] [font=inherit] [/font][/font][/font][/font][/font][/font][/size][/font][/color] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cato Posted May 18, 2017 Share Posted May 18, 2017 (edited) For what it's worth this is my favourite Chris Cornel song. I used to busk this one in the subways of Plymouth. Ironically the album it came from was a tribute from various people on the grunge scene for a friend who died young. http://youtu.be/VUb450Alpps Edited May 18, 2017 by Cato Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Temple of the dog was a tribute to Mother Love Bone's singer Andrew wood who had died the previous year of a drug overdose. Andrew and Chris were roomates.

Funky Dunky Posted May 19, 2017 Share Posted May 19, 2017 (edited) Huge fan of the man's voice, and a lot of his music. Soundgarden were the soundtrack for my leap from adolescence to adulthood, and I'm gutted by the loss of this hugely talented singer/songwriter. Thinking about the big Grunge bands, Kurt Cobain is dead, Layne Staley is dead, Scott Weiland is dead, Chris Cornell is now dead....Eddie Vedder must be bricking it. Btw.....Cornell wrote Black Hole Sun in 15 minutes... Edited May 19, 2017 by Funky Dunky Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Musicman20 Posted May 19, 2017 Share Posted May 19, 2017 Is Vedder the only major grunge frontman left? Scrap that, Billy Corgan....he is also very talented. Vedder is yet another example of a stunning voice. I often see the older Pearl Jam as much more sensible and clean cut compared to the other bands....I hope Vedder is looking after himself!

stingrayPete1977 Posted May 19, 2017 Share Posted May 19, 2017 Do we include Mr Grohl in the surviving grunge singers list? I would personally. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stingrayPete1977 Posted May 19, 2017 Share Posted May 19, 2017 I'm not really a fan of labels to define bands so I'd put Mike Patton in the list too, still no match for Cornell, what a shame when he was still spreading joy to thousands on the live scene.
