Understanding Black Hole Sun

Chris Cornell was a brilliant singer, songwriter, and arranger, and in honor of his passing, we'd like to take a look at one of his most famous songs, Black Hole Sun. Described by Cornell as a "surreal dreamscape" and by Soundgarden guitarist Kim Thayil as "not safe as milk but [not] glass in someone's eye, either", Black Hole Sun is a disorienting but moving piece that uses some pretty advanced harmonic devices in some very clever ways. Chris Cornell's passing was a great tragedy for the world of music, and his legacy lives on through his many works of art. Rest in Peace, Chris Cornell.
