"you my friend i will defend, and if we change, well i love you anyway" always makes me emotional

[blppt]

I loved Layne as much as the next AIC fan, but this guy is a really solid vocalist. So until we can resurrect the dead, not sure what people are expecting to happen.

[steamboatwilly]

It must hurt Jerry's heart a bit every time they play this song. RIP Layne.

[neptunesphere]

It’s rare that the most commercial song on an album/EP is my favourite, but No Excuses is an exception. What a song.

[pwk]

Damn. Jerry never deteriorates. He's as good today as 1991.

[Syrinx]

William DuVall kicks ass! He nails it every time, with every single note he sings.

[honey]

Like a lot of people, i resisted Liking Duvall. When you pay attention, he's pretty damn good. I can't imagine anyone else that could fit in like that, He is pure talent.

[Jake-feuf]

I love every instrument including vocals in this song. Everything in harmony makes this song.

[Roeth]

Jerry's vocal contributions are so underrated, you can hear him creating that same haunting, nasal, snarly, crying effect he always did that created AIC's signature sound when paired with the lead vocal of Layne at the time. It worked a little better with Layne but sounds good with Duvall too.

[mrc]

Fuck! How good is this? The vocals are amazing.

[PetrucciSatriani]

Fantastic performance of a fantastic song. If you can't get on board with Duvall singing then your loss because this is bliss for all of us who thought they'd never play again after Layne passed.

[CCommunIT]

I had such fears when I clicked the thumbnail.

Quite presently surprised. No - you'll never *replace* the original. But you *can* do honor to it, and continue the legacy…

[LoneCanadianPoet]

The New Vocalist Is Fucking Good. It's Good How He Picks Up Where Layne Left Off And The Dynamic May Be A Little Different But Still True To What Makes Alice In Chains Great To Listen To.

[canonthomasen]

Insane performance! Legends! William Duvall is honoring the legacy so well! We all miss Layne! 💯

[allears]

it's ALWAYS a pleasure to listen to ALICE in CHAINS....such an incredible band

[mytuber]

I'm addicted to this version, almost therapeutic.

[darlenekovach]

This is one of my favorite songs of theirs. I love Jerrys little riff.

[flightofthebumblebee]

I am so glad that Jerry was able to find a great friend and singer to keep AiC alive and kicking with. I love the stuff with Layne forever but he died too soon and Jerry was the core of this band and I am so happy he was able to get in the groove with Will and put out some more great AiC music.

[SarahFromCanada]

This is a perfect performance! Love it.

[cantrellayne]

This made me cry. I love this band so freaking much. Seeing Cantrell moving on and continuing, the legacy his band created, after the passing of Layne is so beautiful & strong of them. As a fan has said before, DuVall isn't a replacement. He's an addition. I love this band with all of my heart. Thank you Jerry, Mike, Sean for continuing. Thank you DuVall for honouring Layne.
