Music Monday-
This meme was created by Drew @ The Tattooed Book Geek. You pick a song that you really like and share it on Monday.
I thought I’d share one of the new release songs off Chris Cornell the new album. This album can be purchased in a boxed set which features 11 never released songs and also other from his solo career, Temple of the Dog, Soundgarden, and Audioslave. It’s hard to believe it’s coming up on two years since Chris left. I love this song, but the video was a little difficult to watch. I like that the video features Chris Cornell’s son riding throughout Seattle, but it evoked sadness in me I haven’t felt for some time now. Let me know your thoughts on it.
Standing beside an open grave
You’re fate decided, your life erased
Your final hour has come today
Lit by the fire of your temples burning
You are a child and so was I
Now you’re a hunter but I am a lion
And I will cut you down like I’ve done so many times
But sometimes bad can do some good
Sometimes bad can do some good
Sometimes bad can do some good
And I heard you say that flesh sells by the pound
When blood is raining down it cuts a deep river
And I’m diving
Now shine a light down onto the earth
And shake this gold dust out, out of the dirt
No saints beside me and no prayers to guide me
Sometimes bad can do some good
Bad can do some good
Sometimes bad can do some good
(Rain down, heaven is falling)
I’ve chosen a side and I will show no pity
(Rain down, heaven is falling)
And spare no lives
For those who try me
(Rain down, heaven is falling)
Let it be understood
Sometimes bad can do some good
(Rain down, heaven is falling)
Sometimes bad can do some good
(Rain down, heaven is falling)
Sometimes bad can do some good
You can find this on:

Yeah, it was released last November. Glad you guys love him too. Hard to believe it’s been going on two years!
I haven’t purchased the boxed set because many of the songs are those that I already have. I’d like to have all the bonus material though. You’ll have to let me know if you guys get it. Thanks, Mackey! ♥️

Boy, does his son look like him. The video is very melancholy, but loved hearing a new song and seeing lyrics displayed from his older songs.

He does, doesn’t he? Not sure where the blonde hair came from though lol. It is a bit sad, but I love what they did with the video.

Did you see the clip going ’round of Miley Cyrus doing a cover of “Say Hello 2 Heaven” at the Chris Cornell Tribute?

It’s great to know that music goes on even after the loss of a well loved musician. Almost like a ‘sign’ from heaven. I think his son and daughter look a lot alike in their facial features. One can see their mom and Chris in both of them. I like that you bring his memory back in your Music Mondays from time to time jen. 🎶
