Altho you can only see part of their faces, the actors really convey emotion.

Wow, he's got a nice looking face!

Powerful.


"How am I going to be an optimist about this?"

What a great question that I've never heard asked before this song.

It's kind of how I've been considering problems with my car or my house as being presented with a new learning experience rather than stewing in my own pity pot.

No more time for feeling sorry for myself in the back half of my life. And no point in wasting any time thinking about how much time I wasted doing that before.

Not to sound too haughty, but the new me is turning out to be pretty fuckin' awesome.

I just recently got some new headphones and Blinding Lights sounds AMAZING with them.

So good. I love that song.




I wanted to hear this one with the new headphones and boy, it doesn't disappoint.

Major Tom, The Sequel. One of my favorite 80's jams.

I can't believe I didn't hear about it. I'm not up on celeb culture, but usually deaths make my radar. Shame.

"the guy"????

That's rock and roll legend Chris Cornell! Lead of Soundgarden and Audioslave, co-lead of Temple of the Dog with Eddie Vedder before that, and the first American band to play in Cuba since 1979 while in Audioslave.

He died too. :(

2017 was a sad year. Lost both Chris and Tom Petty.


Chris had a phenomenal voice, especially in his youth.

And Chris sharing singing duty with Eddie Vedder on Hunger Strike before Pearl Jam.

Yeah. I don't watch any news. I don't even have digital antenna TV lol. I just heard that Paul Reubens died, so I'm surprised I didn't know about her passing too.

Jack, you forget that I am older than you. I have never heard of Audioslave or Sound Garden or Temple of the Dog.

---

You're not THAT much older than me.

Sound Garden was high school for me. Audioslave was a band he started sometime in my early 20's. Temple of the Dog was when I was in Jr. High. I just went through high school thinking that "Say Hello 2 Heaven" was Soundgarden and "Hunger Strike" was Pearl Jam, honestly. It wasn't until the wife of some guy I was working for in my mid-20s turned me on to some music and let me borrow some CDs that I found out Temple of the Dog was even a thing.

It was bad when I heard about Tom Petty dying. I liked him.

---

Yeah. I never saw anybody in concert more than Tom and the Hearbreakers.

Quote:

---

The only group I know about is Pearl Jam outside of Tom Petty.

---

It looks like Soundgarden was already a thing in Seattle before Chris did the side gig with Eddie Vedder and Temple of the Dog. Hunger Strike was the first time Eddie recorded a song, and it was right when he was meeting the guys he was going to start Pearl Jam with.

ETA: Ah, SIX this stuff from Temple of the Dog is pretty depressing. And so that is a no from me.

Yeah... Say Hello 2 Heaven was a song Chris wrote for his friend who died.

Hunger Strike isn't depressing though. Chris said this about it:

"I was wanting to express the gratitude for my life but also disdain for people where that's not enough, where they want more. There's no way to really have a whole lot more than you need usually without taking from somebody else that can't really afford to give it to you. It's sort of about taking advantage of a person or people who really don't have anything."

and..

"Hunger Strike' is a statement that I'm staying true to what I'm doing regardless of what comes of it, but I will never change what I'm doing for the purposes of success or money."
