I was only 6 years old when he died but I still remember it like it was yesterday. My uncle was huge into grunge and 90s alternative and he introduced me to so much great music, including my favorite band of all-time Alice In Chains. I’ll never forget being 5 or 6 years old and staring at that damned 3-legged dog on the cd cover, both horrified and mesmerized, as my uncle played it for me. My aunt actually met Layne at a rock bar in Atlanta. She was big in the scene during the 90s. She was invited to sit and have a drink with him, right when AIC was starting to take off. She said he had one of the most tormented souls she’d ever seen. It broke her heart to look him in the eye. That poor man lived a very tortured existence.

Living in this world is like a big test but you & both your son's are Warrior's! You've seen & experienced "rock bottom" yourself &/or your sons too. Unfortunately, the bringer of evil is always waiting for an opportunity to cause Doubt, hopeless feelings etc. Addiction is a serious disease & it can & does turn families upside down. I say keep things as simple as possible in your life, 'share your honest feelings with your boys, with the support of a friend if you need to. Let your sons know they're loved no matter what they dealing/struggling with. When someone feels like they're on their own or that no one understands that is when people's inner-negative thoughts can take over & cause one to spiral into a hole, quickly!

RIP... you and Morrison are the top 2 vocalists of all time

Layne Staley and his contribution of unparalleled music and important lyrics will live forever! Miss you Layne,god bless you!

First of all, all of your comments are incredible beautiful people and thank you all to everyone who shared. Words cant even begin to express the way this song makes me feel, as I know many of you, including Layne felt the same as I do on a daily basis. But people like Layne, Shannon Hoon, and many others, keep me going on a daily thru this incredible music. Who cares what type of success or failure these albums or projects had, because we all know the bands that released them didnt, they made the music for the way they felt, like a human being. We need more of this type of expression in our music today, and I know the talent is there people are just afraid to express or support it. Would love to see some bands break thru just the way the grunge scene ripped through the 90s and rock and roll as it was known at the time. RIP LAYNE AND SHANNON I LISTEN AND AM INSPIRED BY YOU EVERY GOT DARN DAY

Gives you chills listening to this shit sober after hearing it so many times as an active user.. RIP Layne

This is the only song that gives me goosebumps as much as Nutshell does The whole building until the part where he screams ''ohh, yeahh'' and then the solo and it goes back to being soft again, its just incredible, although I never had a drug addiction, this song will always hit me like nothing else

And that is just one of the amazing things about this song, and actually all of Layne's songs really.. that the lyrics have a pretty specific meaning, or subject.. but, at the same time, they have the ability to be interpreted however it feels, or means, to the listener. And, like you said, in this specific case, even someone who has never been an addict, can feel something from the song, and it's lyrics. And that is actually kinda hard to do.. but he managed to get that same feeling, and versatility, from all his songs.. both from Mad Season, and Alice in Chains. And, if for some reason, someone couldn't feel anything from the lyrics, then there is always the instrumental music 🎶.. which is universal, and anyone can get something from that...

One day, I wanted to die. I wasn't going to act on it, but I was hurting bad. I played "Don't Follow" and I swear Layne's voice spoke to me and it was heavenly and spiritual. He brightens our hearts using darkness that he left behind years ago. I hope young people like me discover AIC and Mad Season for decades to come. And I hope in death we get to meet Layne in whatever comes next.

Remembering means they will never truely die.We as fans keep these guys alive by truely feeling and understanding the message they give us in there music.Keep em alive by listening and passing on these songs to future generations.I'm a father of four and you better believe I play all my music for them to hear and they like it!

i have been listening to this song for 2 weeks constantly every day, and it still did not bore me.

My own self did not realize how badly I needed this today. Wake upppp

Layne Staley was a vocalist/musical genius in my eyes, he could peirce your soul with his words and that voice...... Just for anyone who doubts he saved lives you're absolutely wrong..... Layne NEVER condoned anyone else to do drugs, in fact he told everyone not to follow in his footsteps. Listen to those songs, the people who did and he got through to he 💯 percent saved PERIOD!!! There is a eerie hole left in this world without him. I'm just so glad he himself is no longer suffering no matter how that had to be. I love you Layne always.....we all do!! To the best singer/front man I've ever seen in my opinion.......thankyou for all you sacrificed and suffered here on earth........

“For a little peace from God you plead” Never pleaded harder than when I od’d on cough syrup, alone, in my room, just a few weeks ago. After years and years of addictions and insanity. And as I was having the most painful shit of my life to get all that poison out of me, the pain began to subside. Mashallah, god is beautiful. I’m not saying Islam or any religion is right for everyone. But I know that was my “last chance”. I’ve been clean from cough syrup, pills, and cannabis (which was just a problem for me, no judgment) since that day. It’s hard but I know I’d be dead if I denied the greater power.

This song gets me the 90s was the peak of the human experience of music 🎶

This entire album is a f'ing masterpieace.

It's very strange I must say. I randomly found this song, and honestly I forgot even how. Had no idea who was in the band, just liked the artwork. Started listening to this, and it spoke volumes in a way no other song ever has. I'm a recovering alcoholic and have been sober for about 6 months now. Lately, the urges have been eating away at me. Anyone that's been down the rabbit hole understands I'm sure. Every time I listen to this song now, it silences the demons in my head just enough to ease the feeling. Very grateful I found this, and anyone else who is struggling, you are not alone. There's so many people out there and so many different forms of help. I chose to do it with no meetings and no help really. Hard and difficult but i'll be alright, and so will you.
