It's actually not even a video really, it sounds like it came from a radio broadcast.


Posted it because I never see Alice In Chains covers... Just wondering what you guys think, I'm not really a fan of his voice.
Stone Gossard...riffmeister extraordinaire!

I am a man, I am advanced.....I am the first man to borrow Stone's leather pants!

    How..unpleasant. Shame how some of the most beautiful heart wrenching songs can be taken into the hands of another to be like nails on a chalkboard..nice try though, ha

    I'll take Ryan Adams' cover of it instead.

    The only AIC cover I have heard that I liked was Ryan Adams cover of Down in a Hole. It's incredible.

    Amen to that. I got through half of one of their new songs before I shut it off. The new singer tries too hard to be like the old singer.

    They (the old line up) put a great show.
    I'll ride the wave where it takes me.

    yea, the fuel version kinda sucks, but glad to hear any alice in chains cover. the ryan adams version is pretty good! not a fan of the chorus when he sings it though. the best alice in chains cover i've heard is staind doing nutshell.
    My favorite Pearl Jam song: "Corporate Greed Boat Asshole Behind a Counter in the Oval Office"

    Never heard of Staind and Aaron Lewis then? They/he likes to ruin AiC songs and PJ among others.
    And I'm guessing that band Godsmack do the odd AiC cover as well.
    Can not be arsed with life no more.

    I don't like this cover nor the other one by Adams...yuck.

    That might be one of those songs that just can't be covered well...like Sympathy For The Devil. No one can seem to sing it the way Mick did, which was so perfect...same with Layne for this song.

    Cor that's a nasty cover! Was that seriously the best singer they could find?!

    I do like the Ryan Adams cover, apart from the "my wings have been so denied" part, which just grates on me a bit.
