And who said Chris can't hit those high notes anymore?! The best rock vocalist of the past 25 years, easily.

"And everywhere no one cares the fire is spreading And no one wants to speak about it" - this rings so true now.

Just like Iron Man - The slower you play the heavier it gets. So fucking wicked.

Tom Davies Cheers Tom! My sentiments exactly ! Although Chris can't quite sing like the old days but fuck, he's not 25 anymore. This song has been going through my head since the election. I guess I'm resigned to global catastrophe. But it's all good; pour a drink, roll a joint , light a Roman candle and hold it in your hand!

Unfortunately I'm in the US and 10 miles from a "Primary target" big air force base, so I won't be able to experience the fallout. But at least I'll die before I know it, a flash of light and it's over, War Games style. Probably for the best

Superunknown is a masterpiece...brilliant songwriting on every song. Heavy and lyrically dark but experimental simultaneously. I appreciate S.G. even more now almost 30 years later.

Come to think of it, in it's chord structuring and melody, so did "Black Hole Sun"... I could hear the Beatles in their later years easily do EITHER of those songs and think SoundGarden were doing cover versions. That's actually a compliment, by the way.

4th of July reminds me of the soundtrack to a post-apocalyptic wasteland. One of the most underrated Soundgarden songs ever. It should have been a single no question.

"and leads the scorched ones here" always loved that line, great performance!

legend absolute master

Greatest Soundgarden song of all time.....

Forever my favourite SG song, phenomenal.

This band was so talented, and i want to say underrated, but they were pretty damn big in the early 90's

Hearing it live is so different. I love it. Even the fact that's it's in England

Chris’s voice was beyond any description that day, unique -

I heard it in the wind, saw it in the sky, thought it was the end, thought it was the 4th of July 🔥❤️🔥❤️

Those VOCALS!!

The best live performance of this song ive seen .. The first 2:30 of this video was bad ass....RIP*

Sounds even better live!

"And everywhere no one cares the fire is spreading And no one wants to speak about it" Damn the way that he means it and screams "a fire is spreading" is just amazing.

Hello how's your day going so far today

This is a true American masterpiece. Chris IMO here was being diplomatic to his UK audience but I'll always listen to this on Independence Day. Happy 4th of July!

Still love listening to this song every 4th of July

This man was an oracle...April 1994 Chris took some acid then decided to take a walk down the Native American reservation..lo and behold voices spoke to him comforting feelings attracted like he wasn't alone in a dreamy like conciousness yet whenever he looked back only glimpses of this spirit telling him to listen and write so Cornell did and we have this GLORIOUS MESSAGE we should heed "4th of July" was for us a warning of CERN and its capabilities with the Hadron Collider. ..YES he struggled with depression and substance abuse but he LOVED LIFE he did not take his own life..he was sent here to link us together not tear us apart..

This makes me emotional as hell😭😭 it’s just perfect, we miss you dearly Chris❤️

"its all about somthing else" yeah an acid trip about the end of the world chris lmao

great post,it was an awesome day !

This was one of the best gigs Ive ever been to. Sound garden and faith no more were fuckin amazing!

This video sounds better, and Chris sings it better in the video, than the pro shot live at Hyde Park 2012.

Happy 4th of July 2021! Miss you every day Chris. The world needs you back man.

4th of July 2019! Glad I took a dive and found this precious download! Thank you Chris (RIP) and thank you Kristy for sharing this gem!! \000/ \000/ Now where did I leave my superunknown CD

RIP...

One of the best gigs I've ever been to

Rip chris cornell Leyend of grunge in peace sleep🤘🤘

Can´t believe it - can´t stop listening.

I was there, amazing song, amazing band!! This day I was officially a die hard fan of Cris (Rest in piece...) and Soundgarden!!

Listening and watching today July 4th 2020. What a song ! Epic Chris vocals . Everything about it is true Soundgarden sound and Kim is such a legend with how nonchalantly he strikes the pose and hits his opening riff !!!

This is my 2nd funeral song...in a good way. Thank you Chris!

i love this

i was there!!!....Great memories xx....RIP MR CORNELL

Looking back, I'm so glad I was there.

I’ve been a major fan of Chris’s for a year now, and despite being very aware of his passing, it’s only just really hit me that I will never, ever get the privilege of seeing him live. I‘d just turned 17 when he passed, so I’m not sure it would have been possible anyway. Still... Damn.
