Tremor Christ is better than this song in every conceivable way. Plus some others probably. It might be thier best song ever ever. Ever.

I hope someone hasn't said the contrary.

Just to prove Release_me wrong, here is me singing the last chorus and outro of Infallible having only ever attempting to sing it twice before in my life, both right before recording this, with no warm up, and I'm not even a singer by trade

I just think the similarity between Infallible and Tremor Christ is a little part of the song, that's why I don't even compare it in my head.

The point was that he put it on a pedestal, sure me singing this is very rough but as I said I had no trouble attempting to sing it. There are loads of Cornell songs where I've thought it was obtainable but :shake: :shake: :shake: :shake: :shake: :shake:
Generally there aren't that many PJ songs that are completely unobtainable vocally, I'd say Dissident would be one of the harder tracks

But that criticism is nothing to do with this song, it's one you could apply to anything in PJ's catalogue. You want a song to be impossible for you to manage to sing before you like it?

Well, attempting to sing is not so hard, we can't just assure it will sound good...

Cornell songs are pretty hard, his vocals are very wide and he uses many changes in the songs, maybe Black Hole Sun is possible.

I find hard the lowest notes from Eddie.

Nah it had nothing to do with that, I'm not sure if you were in on the discussion yesterday (?) but one of the points release_me was making about the chorus was that it was "catchy" and "melodic" or something and found it ironic that nobody could sing it like it was this huge vocal statement.

Don't get me wrong, I do like the song!

Verse is Em, D, C Bm
Prechorus is C, Am
Chorus is G, F, Em, D
Bridge is Em, Bm, Em, Bm, Em, Bm, D, Am then C, D

That's just from the top of my head so could be slightly wrong in places
