At this point, in the years following Chris’ death, I’m in the “anger stage” of grief because every time I watch an interview, such as this one, it just reminds me of the level of intellect that Chris had and that we can no longer be spoiled by. Selfish? Absolutely! Because musicians like him are generational! Thank God he’s of my generation!

This man had no egotistical airs about him..always a gentleman..well spoken he articulated his words well, he swore but not every other word ..no scandals...never heard rumors of infidelity..only one tattoo , on his left shoulder ..beautiful man ,beautiful voice , beautiful but sometimes dark lyrics..the only thing Chris Cornell wasnt blessed with was longevity ..I cant help but wonder ,Did he not know how blessed he was ,how talented ?..I sure miss him. Miss him alot.❤✌😎🌹

he would tell you thats not true...the first comment. To get your ideas across to masses of people and lead people, no matter in what fashion or style...there is always a hint of ego..atleast at a younger age when you are trying to present yourself. I haven't seen it done successfully without it, anyone that wants to be heard forces their way to a certain extent and cut others off to do so...like I said, atleast when starting out or younger ages, he definitely lost quite a bit of that over the years. Humans are weird and we need attention and want our things heard and seen and its just not possible without stepping on toes.

@@oldben1800 Chris said he had some dick headedness like his father. And for those who believe Chris could not do any wrong, he did. Do some thorough searches. Look deeper than surface crap. He always did. I adore Chris. I only discovered him last August. In that time I’ve had 3 dreams of Chris. And they were real. I can tell you, as strange as it sounds, when you tap into his frequency you will get spiritual information that usually arrives in synchronization. Whatever Chris had he knew it was powerful. You can’t be writing lyrics like he did in his teens and 20’s without knowing. Masterful genius who is still spreading his messages today. Chris is forever with us in his energy. Remember that and don’t be sad. But if you are, remember Chris said depression can be fun. ☮️

Chris is such an intelligent and beautiful guy. He continues to live thru the amazing music he made. What a beautiful talent!

I hadn't seen this interview before, while I was watching it it felt as though it was live and he was still with us. It was very comforting, if only for a moment. The interviewer had some great questions which provoked some excellent considerd and thoughtful answers from Chris.

Bring back 7 last songs to Soundgargen!

As his widow sues Soundgarden, listen here, he says "we write songs..." They have recordings for the 8 songs of a future Soundgarden recording, but she is withholding the masters. They have notes on the writers, length of song and whether vocals were laid down or not. It was a legal partnership. I would hate for her to be the reason these Soundgarden songs never see the light of day or are messed with by someone other than the band and its chosen producer(s)!!!

CC is the best musician in history. His songwriting is top notch, his singing is the best in the world, he plays complicated guitar parts and sings at the same time live! for hours, in front of thousands of people, for years.... very few musicians can achieve that.

Chris wrote and sang with his soul. He was intelligent, spiritual and kind. He had his demons like many creative people who are incredibly sensitive and feel everything. Miss him so very much.

Do more I listen to Chris Cornell interviews, more I miss him because it's hard to pay attention to common sense about the meaning of rock and roll that has been spread worldwide. ”Obscure” things is the key to myself love so much Soundgarden and other rock and roll bands. Just amazing! Thanks for sharing this interview!

I guess I'm in the acceptance stage where I appreciate his prolific pace of creating music. He left us a ton of music, and he did it in a badass way. And for him, it was always in the moment. He would always says things on stage like, "Who cares what year it is, let's just be here." So, for me it's like I'm still rocking with Chris. We be vibin now. LOL.

I don't think I will ever stop mourning him. Sometimes these waves of grief and love for him hit me and knock the wind out of me. What a beautiful, kind, and talented soul. I hope wherever he is now, he knows how loved and missed he is.

Thank you for this post. I was very perturbed by his death. He had always represented the consumate "artist" to me. So much integrity in his lyrics and the arrangements by the band. His talent was incredible and it is good to realise that I always "learned" from anything Chris Cornell and the band chose to express. He is sadly missed by me as by so many others. Many thanks for this upoad.

He was such a fantastic talent and genuine individual. A tremendous loss. Rest in Peace. We love and miss you!!!

Who else is getting goosebumps by watching him? How handsome, articulate and confident he looks in this interview. His voice just resonates in my ears. I do love him. I heard you in my young years but it wasn't until you left us that I became a hard core fan, which is dramatic for me. I never got to see you live. That wll be one of my biggest regrets.

Such a beautiful talented man, we all love and miss you Chris Cornell 😇❤️🤘🎶🌹

.... AND he was incredibly handsome as well. Whoa!

I met Chris, years ago in Baltimore. He's one of my favorite musicians of all time and this was a really cool interview! I've seen Soundgarden and Audioslave everywhere from tiny venues to Lollapalooza. Their music, his voice, and his soul are all amazing!

Glad i saw soundgarden once in 2012

Love how honest he is and it's beautiful that he shares so much with us. RIP Chris.

He truly was a beautiful human being. Will miss him forever.

One of my regrets is not seeing this man with SG, George Jones , AIC , and Merle Haggard live. These were some of my music heroes.

Chris was innately articulate and extremely intelligent!! No one sings like you anymore ❤️‍🔥

in all senses a man can be.

Being a fan since 1991/1992 (14 years old back then) it's hard to not love Soundgarden, their music was who I heard as the first Seattle sound bands, then soon after Nirvana, AiC, and the rest. It's difficult still after his loss, but I'm very thankful the band has continued working together, and doing their own solo careers. You get to hear what each one sounds like, and why they were able to contribute to the band. It's the secret to the band that each one gave us.

What’s cool is their songs will continue to “evolve” as other bands play and learn from their music

people think a depressed person is a person always sad, that you can tell they are sad because of how they behave on the outside. that isn't depression. depression is something you feel inside. sometimes it overwhelms you and you feel like you can't take it anymore. a depressed person will often put on an act, a fake smile. they may even appear optimistic and excited about their future. this is why I think it was such a shock to people when Chris Cornell killed himself. He actually seemed to be doing great on the outside, but what you see in performances and interviews of him is not the whole picture. he clearly hid his inner struggles and depressed thoughts from the public. though if you look at his songs, it's obvious what he was thinking about. no, he wasn't happy. I think he was an amazing musician, but felt either bored or lost in life. terrible that he's gone. his music still means a lot to me

So what? They were all in a band. Chris is the man who killed himself, no need to take out on his wife. HIs band were too hasty to demand his personal items. Don't blame his own choice to kill himself on his wife. He is dead, and so no one can tell what he wanted other than to die in that moment. Also - now that other aspects have been dealt with in his life, his wife has already said lately that there will be a final soundgarden album, she was not 'with holding' music indefinately, just the band got greedy and impatient. Maybe explains why Chris moved on with his life before, and he did again in death. There was more to Chris than that band, so get over it people. She planned to cooperate just fine in due course.

Its crazy the 3 real true underground grung bands all have dead singers I've never considered pearl jam a part of them even if everyone else did they were always more a u2 thing then underground rock even back in the day all 3 nirvana chains sound garden were all around for years playing show ya I know pearl Jame was mother love bone but even so mother love bone was chosen ones the band that the record company's have chosen to bring in that style of music nirvana was a fluke I think the album nevermind would do well in any generation but it wouldn't have turned music and fashion on its head in a matter of days pearl jam had a huge push from the get go I do appreciate there morality and conviction but I can't considere them anything like the other 3 never did but that is just my opinion

No, because it’s not hers to keep. Those guys specifically wrote them not just Chris. He was not a solo artist with hired guns. They’ve already laid tracks. Now, what she does have rights to is his personal home recordings and SG’s not asking for that. Heck, his laptop with the masters were with SG and they were nice enough to give that in good faith. They just need the master of his voice. Those songs are already titled, wrote and music. Doesn’t she already have enough money?? Three simultaneous law suits, withholding Lily’s due, etc. If you do some research you’ll discover she’s no stranger to litigation, and has been sued for being a debt beat. Not to mention draining him from invoices through that restaurant and God only knows what else along with those LLCs.
