Chris Cornell Cover Of Guns N 'Roses Song, Patience Released On His Birthday
JAKARTA, Yesterday, July 20 was supposed to be Chris Cornell's 56th birthday. The family of one of the grunge legends marked the occasion by sharing the Guns N Roses song Patience, performed by Cornell. This song has never been released before.
In a message posted on Facebook, the Cornell family said:
“His birthday seems like the perfect time to share this (song) and celebrate Chris, his voice, music, stories and art.
"It is true that a man does not die while his name is still spoken ... and, through his art work, an artist's soul still burns as brightly as everyone who looks at him and his memories.
"Releasing special music for Chris makes a part of himself here with us - his heart and soul. Love and legacy."
According to the information written in the music video on YouTube. Patience was recorded by Cornell in March 2016 after he taught his daughter Toni to play this song.
Listen to the song below:
In related news, Toni is following in his father's footsteps. He recently released his first solo single, Far Away Places, and covers the song Hunger Strike from Temple of the Dog.
Meanwhile, Chris's old band Soundgarden remains locked in a legal battle with Chris's wife, Vicky. This is due to the ownership of Soundgarden's unreleased records.
