    Cornell used to have a better vocal range, but it has disappeared in the last 8 years whereas ed can still do it as well as ever on a good night, and on a bad night he's never too far off.

    so true!!!
    However Chris has not been that good on stage IMHO (I prefer him singing on studio albums)

    Well, up front I gotta say that i don't really like Soundgarden or Audioslave but like pretty much everything Eddie has ever recorded.

    That being said, if I just take PJ's Footsteps and look what Cornell did with the exact same music. To me that's just light and day as far as voice, pitch, harmony, vibe etc. are concerned (in favor of Ed obviously).
    Obviously? I prefer Ed but he loses hands down in that match-up. The chorus to Times of Trouble gives me chills. I love Footsteps, but I always cringe when Ed's voice does the pimply-faced-teenager screech on the last "What I HAD to do" part. Frankly, I wouldn't match up Ed to ANY of Chris's stuff off the Temple of the Dog album, it's Cornell's shining moment and one of the best vocal performances ever put to record, IMO.

    And also, I don't recall any "harmony" in either song.

    That Argentina Clip sounds like CC mailed it in actually. The verse was horrible and the Chorus was only ok.

    Corin is even better.:) and Ed sounds Waaaaay better

    Did you just say Corin sounds better on that song than Cornell? You can't be serious. Listening to her try to sing Hungerstrike was painful!!

    Don't want to get in to the "who's a better singer" arguement. I prefer Ed but I love them both:) they are both amazing singers!!
