Chris & Ben (Soundgarden) - Halfway There

Acoustic intimate set by Chris Cornell and Ben Shepherd from Soundgarden, at the KISW rock radio station.

[rogerreynolds]

This is one of the most beautiful songs ever written. One of the most beautiful voices of our time.

[adeliahogarth]

This version is played faster than the demo or the album versions, and yet it is still beautifully carried out and delivers the message it intends to. Thank you for the upload.

Such a master at controlling his voice. This is a half step down from usual because he KNEW by feel I’m sure; that he needed to drop down. Professionals as well as amateurs should be taking notes. Bravo to my personal favorite singer of all time. And songwriter and a VERY underrated guitarist. This one hurt more than all the others combined. Still hurts daily

[STETTRACE]

Any of you singers out there notice he is dropped down in this performance? The man KNEW where his voice was at all times. Just a MASTER vocalist!! As well as a master player and songwriter and lyricist!!!

[bladehoner]

These recordings are the best_very pure sound!

[davidhumeniuk]

Thank you for sharing Chris. Lifes twists are awkward and illogical yet always inevitable.

[kbishop]

This is my favorite song on King Animal. Rowing and Black Saturday are also great.

[jennyrenaud]

I will never love anyone as much as I love Chris.

[Beeker]

Chris Cornell moved mountains around thats for sure.

[janetbentley]

All of these are impeccable. It's better every time you hear it. I hope he has peace ☮️💟

[danielrobinson]

The man spoke the truth in his songs always and didn’t care what anyone thought

[chrismineo]

Two years already, thank god for videos, love this song

Lyrics

I woke up with my feet nailed down and my head moving the speed of sound
Had a dream I was caught in a maze and couldn't find my way back out
Some were born to move mountains around and some to rot away in jail
I get an itch and when I am scratching everything can go to hell

And how far is halfway there? I didn't see you on the trail
Did almost become good enough should a good life be so hard won?
Is that what our dreams have become?

Sometimes when you're shooting an arrow it can fly
Across the sky so proud
I would go all the way to the sun if I didn't have to come back down

And how far is halfway there? Didn't see you on the trail
Did almost become good enough? Should a good life be so hard won
Is that what our dreams have become?
Have become

Have you got a car and somewhere to sleep?
Someone who loves you? Something to eat?
I would say you're doing better than most
Though maybe not as well as some

And how far is halfway there? I didn't see you on the trail
Did almost become good enough? Should a good life be so hard won?
Is that what our dreams have become?
Is that what our dreams have become?

On the fine line of trying not to cry while singing is not so easy let alone to master it.
