Would? by Alice in Chains

I remember encountering this song on a lazy saturday MTV show. They were showing a sort of 'best of mtv unplugged', a series of songs from the program. I was expecting them to show Pearl Jam's or Nirvana's as they were the guys i was more familiar with who did the show ( and Oasis too!) I didn't realized that i would be encountering another band from Seattle. Alice in Chains.



Layne Staley's stare and half scream made me realize that this AIC is not just a Grunge Band. IT WAS THE GRUNGE BAND!!


All the rock music that i listen to were the ones that my older brother fed to me! Once i got the opportunity, I asked my Mom to buy me a cassette of the Alice in Chains MTV Unplugged. When my brother heard me listening to this one, he was 'jealous' that he had not thought of listening to this band. I one upped him that time. A few years went when we were already collecting CDs, he brought home the same album on CD. This is one instance when it was I feeding him the music, instead of him feeding it to me. RIP Layne!

Know Me Broken By My Master Teach
Thee On Child Of Love Hereafter


Into The Flood Again
Same Old Trip It Was Back Then
So I Made A Big Mistake
Try To See It Once My Way

Drifting Body Its Sole Desertion
Flying Not Yet Quite The Notion

Am I Wrong?
Have I Run Too Far To Get Home?
Am I Gone?
And Left You Here Alone
If I Would Could You?
