    Hungerstrike or Reach Down. But, I agree with the others posters, you should pick up the entire album.

    Definitely get the entire album. It's such an underrated album. I'm wondering if it ever sold a million copies? Probably, probably not as a lot of folks easily missed this album due to it being released pre-Ten, pre-Badmotorfinger. Easily one of my all-time favorite albums. So get the entire album and you won't regret it!

    Most popular track (and only video/radio hit): Hungerstrike

    My favorite tracks:
    Say Hello 2 Heaven
    Reach Down (supposedly, McCready did this all in one take!!!)
    Call Me a Dog (particularly McCready's clean Strat playing!)
    Times of Trouble (which is an alternate version "Footsteps")
    Wooden Jesus (oh screw it, every track on there is my favorite!)

    Rock on!

    Rock on!

    my personal favourite is either hunger strike or say hello to heaven - quality tunes.

    Download Hunger Strike and Say hello 2 heaven (the latter will blow your mind. cornell has never sung better). Then check out times of trouble and call me a dog.... hell get the whole album :D

    Yep, the album is definitely worth getting, but it kinda gets boring after a little bit.

    But Say Hello to Heaven and Reach Down stay with you for a while.

    I disagree.

    That was and will always be one of my favorite albums. I don't think it loses any of the magic,.. it's just kind of a mood record (like, you have to be in a certain mood to really get into it).

    Get the whole thing :)

    Hunger strike is amazing but you need to buy the album as well, its excellent.

    That song say hello to heaven is also amazing, chris cornell sounds fantastic.
    People say im paranoid. Well, they dont say it, but i know that's what they are thinking.

    First time I've ever heard that. Typically, it's considered a masterpiece. That's the general consensus. It's one of my favorite albums ever.
    I wish I was as fortunate, as fortunate as me.

    Nah, it's not a masterpiece, IMO. It kind of lacks cohesiveness (which I guess is typical for a supergroup's first and only album) and like I said, it gets kind of boring. I couldn't say why specifically. But I do enjoy the album.

    Call Me a Dog - The song doesn't get that much praise, but listen to the lyrics and the way it is delivered. This song said "I love you" more than any song I've ever heard in my life. Funny because it's never said directly in the song.


    But when its my time to throw
    The next stone
    Ill call you beautiful if I call at all

    And then listen to the way these lines are sung:

    The bad luck will follow you
    If you keep me on a leash
    and you drag me alooOOOooOOOooong.....

    Everyone I personally know who has discovered this album sings praises to it. :)

    The way Cornell sings Say Hello 2 Heaven is something to behold. Holy shit, does he belt that out. Try it on a jukebox in a trashy bar after about 10 beers. It's awesome :)

    this album consistantly stays in my top 10 albums ever. it is amasing what they came up with together... and as it has been said before chris sounds the best he ever has on this record.

    every song is great. get the whole damn thing!

    Probably my fave from the album is call me a dog but get the whole album it's worth it and check out Mad Season Above too. "Well you say it's bad luck to have fallen for me, what can I do to make it good for you." Now I gotta go listen to it.

    Chris really is at the top of his game on this record.

    One of the best vocal performances in history.

    i really love mikes solo in call me a dog... i really think every member of the band playing the absolute best they could at this time, all mikes solos are so well crafted. Matt's drumming is awesome, i believe i heard somewhere all the drumming was just done first take?
