Lousy music news to wake up to.  Cornell was a rock and roll soldier.

Shit!....Have you ever known a time when celebrities have just died one after the other?
That is particularly sad to me as I absolutely ; well, I won't say envied his voice because that sounds all wrong. I admired his voice to the point where I would think, yeah! It's one thing to be able to project a voice but, his range; phenomenal!
I think certain people once they hit their 50s find it hard to cope, especially if they've been you know, FAMOUS! RIP Chris! Sing it loud mate.

Suicide or OD? When your number's up, it's your turn to die. Is that crude? Ooops sorry but it's true. I believe in fate, its a good way to cope.

His family and friends are saying that Chris was in a good place in his life, and are expressing shock at his apparent suicide.

Pure speculation here...but could his hanging death be accidental --autoerotic asphyxiation.  The guy was alone, after a seemingly great show, just needed a release.

That's a hell of a release.........Family and  friends always say their loved ones are in a good place. Cornell has had drug issues for years. You never know what demons they fight. He lost this round.  Undecided

Interesting concept, an accidental suicide.... he could have been toying with the idea and it went bad and he could of been too wasted to realize he was actually doing it? Its a stretch, but possible.

Chris Cornell/Soundgarden's last song played live in Detroit

was Led Zepplin's "In My Time of Dying  " see link

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sShbNKbpk4A

He was apparently great friends with  Pagey...who was one of the first "RIP" tweets.

more than possible...the intense euphoria attributed to the  lack of oxygen as you are about to climax is one of the oldest rituals dating back to the time of the Druids and Pagans...

Historically, the practice of autoerotic asphyxiation has been documented since the early 17th century. It was first used as a treatment for erectile dysfunction.The idea for this most likely came from subjects who were executed by hanging. Observers at public hangings noted that male victims developed an erection, sometimes remaining after death (a death erection), and occasionally ejaculated when being hanged...it is where the term "Well Hung" comes from...

LOL it's not Led Zeppelin's, it's another plagiarism, in fact you can listen "In my time of dying" on Bob Dylan's first álbum, but al least Dylan gives credits to it as "traditional". BTW, it's not by Blind Willie Johnson is traditional

Apparently, his family thinks an overdose of Atrivan may have caused him impaired judgement and led to his suicide. This is beyond sad.

Actually he just sampled a bit of it while doing a Soundgarden song. They've done that before.

They said the same about Brian Jones too, didn't they? God forbid I should be in such a good place in my life.
