In the original video, Cornell is seen in her late dad’s studio surrounded by guitars and an effects tower.
Chris Cornell, the late Soundgarden, Audioslave and Temple of the Dog frontman, took his own life in May 2017, aged 52. He left a considerable legacy. Cornell was one of the linchpins of Seattle’s grunge movement, and is considered to have possessed one of the exceptional voices in rock.
Judging by Toni’s performance video, powerful pipes run in the family.
“Love you daddy,” writes Toni, “and I’m so proud of what you created, who you are and everything you believed in. This song represents all of that to me.”
Last September, more than three years after his death, Cornell posthumously reached No. 1 on Billboard‘s Mainstream Rock Songs airplay chart with his cover of Guns N’ Roses’ “Patience.” Soundgarden was nominated for the Rock Hall in 2019.
