I liked his James Bond theme.


Are you ready for the fire? We are firemen. WE ARE FIREMEN! The heat doesn’t bother us. We live in the heat. We train in the heat. It tells us that we’re ready, we’re at home, we’re where we’re supposed to be. Flames don’t intimidate us. What do we do? We control the flame. We control them. We move the flames where we want to. And then we extinguish them.

Impersonation is treason.

Yeah this is sad. He seemed to be one of those guys that fellow musicians respected as much as or more than the fans.

Don't worry, my friend.  If this be the end, then so shall it be.

I . . . didn't like his music. I'm sorry for his fans, friends, family, though. I heard it might have been suicide. That's tragic.

Much of what he wrote spoke to me. One hell of a wordsmith, and perhaps the best rock singer ever.









Thanks for the music and the memories, Chris.

Appears to be suicide, 'm'afraid. Was in the middle of a tour, finished a show in Detroit, went back to his hotel room, and hanged himself.

I liked metal music when I was in high school 1970's. In the '80s I was into punk rock and it was cool to hate metal . When Soundgarden and Pearl Jam came out I had to admit metal was cool again. I agree with Thumpalumpacus. Cornell might be one of the greatest rock vocalists of all time. Slaves and Bulldozers!

Even though his music wasn't particularly to my taste, there's no question that Cornell was a phenomenal talent. A great loss.
