Wow I never thought I would see Chris Cornell doing collaborations with Timbaland and Justin Timberlake!

What do you think of the new video?

Chris Cornell is a idiot. He turned to absoulute crap when Soundgarden was no more. Thanks Chris, thanks for screwing everything up! You idiot!

totally agree. i think hunger strike is the only thing i ever liked that he had something to do with... and my god, i saw them live at lolapalooza and Cornell was the biggest ******* baby i've ever seen. half the crowd left because it was getting dark and the fest was winding down so what does he do when he sees the dwindling crowd? he swears at those left watching him - his fans - throws his mic stand in to the crowd, and walks off the stage. all respect for the man died that day, lol. such a drama-queen poser.

I never liked him to begin with, regardless of who he was making music with.

Chris Cornell has been more or less dead to me since the second Audioslave cd.

Oh my... :cry:

I was fine with him doing something different (when Iheard his James Bond track) but I didn't know it would lead to this. How odd, how strange. Soundgarden, Temple of the Dog, Audioslave. Those all sounded good for Cornell but this is ridiculous. His songwriting went to hell too.

Looks like Axl Rose is officially better than Chris Cornell.

That's....something. I think he'd be better off staying in the rock genre but whatever...

I knew things were heading downhill when I heard Audioslave tracks - utter trash. It was even worse when they would cover Rage Against the Machine or Soundgarden songs in concerts. In my opinion, they couldn't pull them off.

sometimes change can be bad and sometimes it can be very good, like me, I didnt like Christina Aguilera back in her pop days, but when she turned Soul/R&B/Funk/Jazz/Rock/Swing i loved her :P

I haven't heard the new G'N'R album personally. I heard that it was uncharacteristic techno-pop, whatever that means. If what you say is true, that has to be a new low - worse than new Guns'N'Roses. Wow.

To me the first Audioslave album was bad. The musicians couldn't line up with Chris's voice and it all felt strange. Second and third album seemed right to me at least. The thing about that band that didn't go to well was the themes of the songs. There was a good amount of songs that just didn't bring out any true emotion.

Let's just say that as a solo project (it ain't the Gunners no matter what Axl says) it keeps it real in an overproduced and ultra stadium rock kind of way.

Yeah, I think I'll pass.

Also, to SAGE, Axl had a more drastic change in appearance than Cornell:

Crazy isn't it?
