[phonkwizard]

phil really poured his entire soul into this performance, could tell that this meant a lot to him

[AmericanSpyFox]

Not going to lie. When I was around 10 I thought AIC had ONE SINGER. Layne & Jerry's voices melted into one voice.

[haley]

Phil impressed the fuck out of me with this cover, Layne had a very rare unique voice and he did so well.

[MetallicaKing]

Both of these guys had lost brothers who they had spent years playing with. Through pain and loss, they come together to deliver an ode to their fallen. It’s quite poetic honestly.

[brysonz]

Somewhere out there Layne and Dimebag are playing a version of cemetary gates to a crowd.

[royalukas]

I personally like Phil's energy. His voice is rough and imperfect, but he sings like he means it. His version is a fitting tribute to Layne's truth and unique genius.

[dylan]

People shouldn't rip on Phil's vocal here. Layne had a voice nobody could duplicate. This is more about emotion. Phil did great!

[leighness]

When a tribute is done by bandmates and friends.... it doesn't matter what it sounds like. This is awesome.

[bloodowl]

I think Phil did a damn good job. I was concerned when people were ripping on him but I'm a Pantera and Alice in Chains fan so I think he did good.

[cobrastriesand]

Obviously Phil is a genius at singing like Phil Anselmo, but I'm damn impressed by how many of the original notes he hit, and how clear the words were.

[nickalexander]

Honestly I love the way Phil sings this he puts his own style with it and it works very well

[elenamadalina]

Phil did this song justice, he has power, control and his voice is amazing.

[rubar]

Jerry's voice is like a hot knife cutting through butter. So fkn smooth.

[denn]

Alice and Pantera. 2 amazing bands I can not get enough of.

[bconte]

There will will never be another voice like Layne but Phil did a hell of a job paying tribute.

[antichoice]

Phil nailed this. Those are real vocals, and he channeled Layne.

[michaelluccketta]

RIP Layne, Dimebag, Mike Starr and Vinny Abbott.

[LovesickBluesBoi]

I'd love to hear an album by Phil and Alice in Chains. That shit would slay

[manwithtwoeyes]

Phil sounds like hes a monster stuck inside a human body

[Quintinu]

Phil looks so focused, he want to pay good rispect to layne
