One of the most overplayed songs of the 90s that never managed to get old. Eddie and Chris' voices worked so well together, if you've never seen the two them perform live I'd highly suggest it. The way Eddie used to look at Chris when he sang was with so much love and awe.

LOVE this song! It's ironic how this group of guys who did this album in honor of their fallen friend from a band not many people (outside of Seattle) had even heard of, not only gained a HUGE audience for their Seattle sound, but it was instrumental in forming the band Pearl Jam as we know it! And it sounds SO beautiful! Hope you are doing well, Anna🙂

The day I heard that Chris had taken his own life was a sad day for me. I was such a fan of all his work from Soundgarden to Audioslave to his solo stuff. His acoustic cover of Prince's Nothing Compares is phenomenal. I'm an American who enjoys your Finnish, thanks for the subtitles! Have a great day!

Temple and Soundgarden grunge era Cornell (listen to “Outshined”) To his later stuff with Rage Against the Machine members that formed the awesome band Audioslave (“show me how to live” “cochise”). A special voice through all of these eras. Hi Anna 😉

I would say the combo of Eddie Vedder and Chris Cornell might well be the greatest male duet of all time. The whole album was fantastic. I wish the Temple of the Dog project would have produced more content.

It's fascinating how well Eddie's and Chris voices mix together when this song wasn't actually meant as a duet. Eddie just happened to be in the studio, where he could hear that Chris was struggling with singing parts of the song, and the just choosed to step in.

Fun fact: If you're in Seattle and want to go to the area where this video was filmed, go to Discovery Park and walk the loop trail. When you get to the large sandy area where you'll usually see kids and dogs playing, this is the area the drums were set up in the video. Discovery Park is one of the coolest parks in Seattle.

The story behind this song is great. Chris and the band were in the studio and were having trouble with the song, Eddie was in the studio working on an amp and instantly knew what they were trying to go for and stepped to a mic and the rest is history.

First of all, Thank you Anna for the sub title translations when you speak in your beautiful native tongue. I honestly love hearing it, and now I can fully understand, :) Secondly this breakdown is on point. Chris and Eddie really complimented each other in this song and it shows the heart of the grunge movement of the 90s... Fantastic reaction!

I’ve got a cool story about Eddie Vedder. First I worked for an insurance company back in the day in the special lines field and remember actually speaking to Eddie about his boat policy! He said enjoyed calling instead of his agent! Very down to Earth and later we were able to meet at a Seattle Pearl Jam show so he was able to put a face to the voice on the phone 📱. ILL NEVER FORGET IT! RIP CHRIS CORNELL. The Seattle scene in the early 1990’s is unsurpassed by anything going on today! I saw Pearl Jam on LOLLAPOLOOZA 92 with Red Hot Chili Peppers, Ministry, Soundgarden, Jesus & Mary Chain, Ice Cube, Cypress Hill…

Chris was a vocal beast

This whole album is a masterpiece one of my favorite albums of all time

To me one of the greatest thing about this tune is that you are hearing Eddie's first take on the album. Chris said they did a few more & they were all good but the 1st still took the cake. Such a great tune 🤘🔥

I relax and sway adrift. I see the fire on the nearby island. I hear peace and smell the energy so I swim with my final energy and wash ashore to a feast of compassion and understanding. While I was away these friends held a place for me.❤😊

Great reaction.This was actually Eddie's first video. Right before Pearl Jam broke out. Chris was struggling with the lower notes and Eddie stepped up. The rest is history. Chris Cornell's range was insane. He's deeply missed.

My voice harmonizes with this song more than any other.

Chris Cornell is the greatest vocalist of grunge and my childhood. He is so dearly missed, but you have so much to experience opening up more of what Chris did in his time with us. Outshined, Slaves and Bulldozers are great vocal track from Soundgarden

Excellent as always , Anna and my 2 favorite singers i have enjoyed 33+ years with quite a few beers. 👍🇺🇸🍻

This album is a tribute to their friend Andrew Wood who passed away. He was the singer for Mother Love Bone, which later became Pearl Jam essentially. Andrew had a great voice as well. Check out "Chloe Dancer/Crown of Thorns" off their self titled album.

Such a great collaboration. Thanks for the technique breakdown. I always enjoy your reactions. 💛🤘🤙✌️

If Eddie’s voice was a house 🏠 he would be the foundation and Chris’s voice would be the roof!

Wow... I know you probably get this a lot but your smile is so captivating. My goodness. Lol

I love the insight you provide as a singer. I'm just a guitar player, so it's nice to have it broken down by someone who knows what they're talking about.

Great reaction! Im here for anything Eddie or Chris.

Chris obviously had an amazing voice, but what made it other-worldly was that it was reinforced with a pure soul. No one sings like you any more. RIP

Great reaction! Its cool watching your smile get so big when theres something great going on. As your smile appears i pay a little closer attention.

Definitely should listen to Say Hello To Heaven. Rest in peace boys, including Mr Andrew Wood

I recommend Say hello to Heaven Temple Of The Dog 's version..Chris..much more Epic!! ..good reaction..❤👏👏👏👍👍👍👍👍

Love this song and love your channel. I don't speak Finnish. But the sound of it makes me happy. Thanks to the karaoke world championships I've had the opportunity to meet multiple amazing people from around the world. The Finnish relationship with music is one of the coolest things I've ever seen.

Great song. Was on radio all the time back then. It is sad that Eddie decided not to attend Chris’s funeral.

When I was 14 or 15, my best friend and I would sing and play this. I'd play bass and sing Eddie's part while my friend would sing Chris' part and play guitar. It didn't matter that we weren't good singers, what mattered was how much fun we had and how this song built our bond as musicians and deepened our friendship.

I think you NAILED it, Anna - They are "Raging Against the Machine" of the music industry that helped them achieve popular success, because THEIR goals & the industries were VERY different ... or something

I went to a Chris Cornell show. It was a stripped down thing where he played small venues. He did this song and got a band member to sing Vedder's part. He said he hadn’t sang the song in some time. It was awesome…

Nothing compares to U cover by Chris Cornell is INCREDIBLE. I think he'll make you cry with the first line lo

Fan of all the musicians in this video. The story goes that Chris wanted to do something with the band (Mother Love Bone) who just lost their singer (Chris’ roommate). As they were in the studio Chris was trying to do both high and low parts. Ed had just got to Seattle, hadn’t even recorded any Pearl Jam albums yet. I think you nailed it, it was a perfect blend of tones that required no overthinking. Beautiful! Thank you again 🙏🏻

“That’s it?”. I know, just want that song to continue. Great analysis! 3 decades later Chris and Eddie still give me goosebumps. The rest of this album is stellar. I encourage you to keep exploring these two generation shaping gentlemen, they are simply incredible. Cheers

You would had loved the life of the 90s, when substance took over the cult of appearance and exuberance of the 80s… so many great things. I would love you to make a vocal analysis of a Brazilian singer, Cássia Eller. Thank you again for this gift, Anna! 😊🤘🏼

What I especially like about reaction channels like yours, Anna, is that I very often will be introduced to 'new' music. I had no idea this collab existed. So thank you very much for that. I will definitely look more into this album. Loved your reaction as always.

Greetings from the U.S. Anna, I have a suggestion for you: Dan Vasc singing Amazing Grace. It is otherworldly. Think you'll love it.

Chris Cornell is one of the greatest rock singers… His vocals define all that is good in rock music…. I will miss him and adore his music forever ( Soundgarden, Temple of the Dog, and Audioslave )…. Thank you Chris!….. I’m late to the party but I have discovered a new band recently. The Warning!!! Three sisters from Monterey, Mexico. They are transcendent, mesmerizing and captivating. Their live performances are sublime. Please react… Pick anything from the 2022 live performance at the Teatro Metropolitan Theatre. I would personally recommend the song Dust to Dust as a starting point but anything from that concert is amazing…. I’m a fan and implore you Anna, my Finnish Goddess for your opinion!

I had to buy the cassette tape twice ... this fucking album ... my youth..

Awesome. Truly a rock duet for the ages. Eddie was new to Seattle (near to where I reside) and simply hanging out at a rehearsal with Chris. At one point he just went up to a mic and started singing the lower lines, leaving Chris free to hit those incredible high notes. I enjoy covering this song vocally, though I’m definitely taking Eddie’s parts. But I daresay the vocalists who could actually cover Chris must be few and far between.

It seems like a song goes in your ears and comes out through your facial expressions very fun to watch, I think it is wonderful and really shows us how you feel about the piece.❤

Another amazing reaction!! I'm still waiting for Beyond the Wheel by soundgarden!!!

Magically powerful together

already legendary.

Beautiful song.. gorgeous Anna

Please do Chris's "nothing compares 2u" cover, Anna! There is nothing he cant sing.

Speak Finnish all day long, Miss, A boy from Australia sees you.

Grunge never has been something I am drawn to, but this is a very well balanced and beautiful song. With Anna’s anna-lysis it gets so much more depth. Kiitos Anna🤗

Your eye reactions are like smiling reactions.

Anna, two of the greatest losses in the 21st century were Layne Staley and Chris Cornell. Of course, his work in Audioslave must be evaluated. Some of my other favorites (although hard for me to listen to) are his covers of Prince's 'Nothing Compares 2 U' and Guns 'N Roses 'Patience' ('Nothing...' is an unplugged studio performance and 'Patience' is an actual music video). Other epic works (in my opinion) include Soundgarden's 'Blow Up the Outside World', '4th of July', and 'Just Like Suicide'. And if you're interested in 'Temple of the Dog', listen to the rest of it. It's an amazing piece of work that I place on the same pedestal as Layne's side project with Pearl Jam, 'Mad Season'. Dammit, I miss these guys every day. I named my cat Layne.

Temple of the Dog was an American rock band that formed in Seattle, Washington, in 1990. It was conceived by vocalist Chris Cornell of Soundgarden as a tribute to his friend, the late Andrew Wood, lead singer of the bands Malfunkshun and Mother Love Bone. The lineup included Stone Gossard on rhythm guitar, Jeff Ament on bass guitar (both ex-members of Mother Love Bone and future members of Pearl Jam), Mike McCready (later Pearl Jam) on lead guitar, and Matt Cameron (Soundgarden and later Pearl Jam) on drums. Eddie Vedder appeared as a guest to provide some lead and backing vocals and later became lead vocalist of Pearl Jam. Pearl Jam's debut album, Ten, was released four months after Temple of the Dog's only studio album.

Whenever I hear this song, I always feel like it's way too short. But I could listen to Chris and Eddie singing together like that all day, so it's probably good that it's as long as it needs to be to make me feel that way. I've seen both Soundgarden and Pearl Jam in concert separately, but it would have been awesome to see them together. Pearl Jam record all their concerts, so I'm wondering if Chris has ever made a cameo on stage with them. Might have to do some research.

Everyone suggests Hunger Strike or Say Hello 2 Heaven, but my favorites are Times of Trouble and Wooden Jesus.

For your next one to explore regarding Chris Cornell, I highly recommend his acoustic live version of Prince's No One Compares 2U. It's just Cornell, another acoustic guitarist and a cello. It was when he was a bit older and believe it was recorded at a radio station. A truly amazing and beautiful performance. On another note, I also highly recommend Eva Cassidy's live acoustic version of Over the Rainbow. It's just her and a guitar in a small Washington DC club. IMHO, the song is now hers. If you don't have tears after her performance, you don't have a soul.

Your reaction is always excellent, in addition to the classes you provide us, we can see the sparkle in your eyes. Speaking of Temple of the Dog, a good song for your reaction would be "Call me a Dog", where Chris puts all his emotion into the interpretation, it's like a tip. thanks for this video.

Great song reaction Anna. My song recommendation would be the band MOTHER LOVE BONE with the song CHLOE DANCER/CROWN OF THORNS. this band was one of the pioneers in grunge scene and the inspiration for many bands like Alice in chains, Soundgarden and Pearl jam. The lead vocalist Andrew Wood also was a close friend to all these bands mentioned above.

Hi Anna, it’s been a long time! You don’t change, I still love the way you go back and forth between Finnish and English when you’re getting excited about something 😂. Yeah Chris and Eddie made a great duo, their voice were made for each others. Perhaps a bit of a sad song to me, I don’t really absorb the lyrics enough to make a full assessment. Anyway, have you heard of The Warning? They stirred things up a bit at the 2023 MTV VMAs with their performances! It was the first time in many years that they had heard real old school rock but with a modern twist. MTV are still trying to find their roof, the performance blew it off 😂. I think that you would probably like a song in their native language, Spanish - they come from Mexico and they are 3 sisters! The song is Martirio, it’s a beautiful but powerful song!

Review Chris Cornell "Nothing Compares to You"

Hi Anna first time here love the sound of the Finnish language sounds like nothing i've heard before you're charming when you speak it. Great songs and vids too. Rock on

Awesome to see some Chris on your channel, had been anticipating it for a while. Man was out of this world and I consider myself lucky I saw him live and he made a fool out of me. Unfortunately his (imo) best works don't have a video or an equally impressive live video attached to it, but Say Hello 2 Heaven (Temple of the Dog) and Beyond the Wheel by Soundgarden (somewhere live in the mid 90's and has like 'INCREDIBLE PERFORMANCE' in the title and for once it isnt clickbait) are among his best. With a video, Outshined live in 92 is great.

You should check out Chris Cornells cover of Nothing Compares 2 U, it is my favorite rendition of the song. I think you would enjoy it.
