Hey, does anyone have any video or concert footage of Soundgarden performing this song? It's my favourite song and would love to see a live performance.
"That f***ing guy makes me wanna puke, sending a statue of himself on tour: what the f*** is all that about? What a f***ing jerk. You know what I hope? I hope he's buggering Lisa Marie! Shit, that asshole Elvis must be rolling in his grave, F***er."

Chris Cornell doesn't like Michael Jackson.

    cornellisgod (loved your username!), where does that quote on your signature came from?

    it was written by ben shephard.

    I think he may have been referring to Matt's percussion work. Yeah, great song written by Ben, but Cameron's drumming IS THE SHIT on this song!!!

    Why do you say that? Sure he had issues at the time but they all did and perhaps a little bit to much has been made of his role in the breakup.

    ^ He had the most pronounced role in the break up, and expressed it the most. But for me, the break up was more about some people wanting to be more mainstream, others wanting to lay back. Ben sounds like a great person in interviews :)

    Why dont' you just insert Chris's name to make it a bit more obvious? i think if Soundagrden was still a band they would probably be one of the biggest bands in the world so I seriously doubt that being 'mainstream' had anything to do with it. Not to metion what is wrong with being mainstream...that is essentially what Pearl Jam is.

    Okay, I was referring to Chris and Matt as opposed to Kim and Ben. Look at where they are now. Matt has expressed his wanting to be more involved with Chris' solo album, so I gather he wants to be part of that "more mainstream" sound. Seems like he was most shocked about the split too.

    I don't think there's anything wrong with going mainstream or not, if that's what they wanted.

    Great song, from a great album. It is a pity they ever split, BUT of course, if they didn't PJ wouldn't have Matt, thus would lose alot of their power and edge, anyone drooling over Audioslave lately, that hasn't already, should seriously invest in some Soundgarden, to see how good AS 'should' or 'could' have been.
    All my favourite singers have stolen all of my best lines.
