Chris Cornell - I Am The Highway Acoustic
Chris Cornell - live from The Bowery in NYC - a solo gig benefiting the victims of Hurricane Sandy. It was challenging to keep a steady hand while filming this from inside my jacket. As a guitar geek, I also focused in on the chords Chris was playing so I could learn the song - apologies to those who do not play guitar.
Rest In Peace, Chris. The John Lennon of our generation.

man i really wish Chris Cornell was still here. Breaks my heart, I always used his music to pick me up and now it just fuels my personal despair. If you are battling depression, you are not alone.

Hang on brother. His music in many ways is more powerful now. It transcends him. And he would want you to. 👊🏼🙏🏼

Couldn't agree more. I've heard this song so many times and it still gives me shivers. The version live at the Queen Elizabeth Theatre is, in my opinion, the ultimate. Slowed down a little bit so you get to enjoy each note.

That was the best sounding version of Chris doing this sing both electric or acoustic...best vocals of all
Holy shit. His voice. I've been listening to him for like 15+ years but its like i'm blown away every time. I am so glad i got to see him with Soundgarden back in 2012, i'll always cherish those memories! Music hasn't recovered since 5/18/2017.
Yes Chris... You Are The Sky... You Are The Night... YOU ARE THE HIGHWAY...
I still can't believe he's not around anymore, his voice was just mind blowing and he was such a talented guy, it really sucks
What a beautiful voice. Beautiful man as well.
Appreciate the camera work for the chord progressions. I get chills every time I hear this angel sing

Agreed, it's really cool how he does the quick chord hits and changes so quickly that you only subconsciously register it. It adds to the mystical and iconic feel to the song.
You're missed Chris....
Essa é a melhor versão dessa música
This is my favorite song by him and its really special to hear him just sing with his guitar. My dad loved to sing and I loved to listen. A singing man is a treasure.
RIP Chris no one dose it better 👍
😳😳😳😳Jesus Christ what a talented talented man he was. My heart is still broken at his passing, but I’m really just being selfish. Wanting him around. To write the songs he did and to have created all that beautiful art he created, he suffered terribly. His misery was his muse I believe. And whether because of or in spite of his many black days, he created the most amazing and beautiful art that will literally last until the end of time. And I thank God for that. I wish you could’ve found another way Chris but at the end of the day it was your choice. Rest easy beautiful soul. May you finally have peace❤️🖤
Happy Birthday, Chris. If you see my dad up there, sing him this song. Thank you. It was a privilege to be around when you were here.
A tune about the immortality of the human soul. While our mortal bonds eventually fail with time, our souls live forever. Rest In Peace, Chris. Until the day we’re all reunited....

Lyrics: (because we all want to sing along, aye.) 🎶 Pearls and swine bereft of me Long and weary my road has been I was lost in the cities Alone in the hills No sorrow or pity for leaving I feel I am not your rolling wheels I am the highway I am not your carpet ride I am the sky Friends and liars don't wait for me I'll get on all by myself I put millions of miles Under my heels And still too close to you I feel I am not your rolling wheels I am the highway I am not your carpet ride I am the sky I am not your blowing wind I am the lightning I am not your autumn moon I am the night The night I am not your rolling wheels I am the highway I am not your carpet ride I am the sky I am not your blowing wind I am the lightning I am not your autumn moon I am the night The night Yeah, yeah, yeah Yeah, yeah, yeah Yeah, yeah, yeah Yeah, yeah, yeah
Sempre será minha preferida, uma pena não ter visto esse monstro ao vivo em um palco.

Such a talented musician. I really miss him and what he brought to the music that I've loved since the 90's.
I am not your blowing wind, I am the lightning! That line gets me every time!
Pure perfection. Miss you everyday Chris. You are with our maker at peace. 💓
Thank you for recording this.
I’m so thankful that you filmed & shared this! Truly a treasure!
that ending was something else. he got so much better after the end of audioslave it was amazing
Such a talent. We miss you Chris.
This song should be called goosebumps. It makes all my hairs stand up. Miss ya.
He is singing to himself, how deep and beautiful is that
I listen to this version at least once a day. You're incredibly fortunate to have been present that day.
Thanks so much for the close ups of his hands! 🤘 How lucky you were to be there in his presence. 💫
That voice has a level on its own. One, in a field of one. And damn we lost it. RIP Chriss, and I can only humbly thank you for sharing your talent with us...
He's amazing
It's a good think Chris Cornell is respectful to his fans. If I was in his shoes I wouldn't be able to resist going on stage and singing the alphabet just once just to see if I could get away with it.
Can I re-like this each time I watch it? Thanks for the upload Vincent, this is an incredible performance!!!

The guy that told me to stop recording was such a jackass. I literally recorded this from inside my jacked through the gap between two buttons. 😉
