I think I remember reading that Chris wrote the lyrics about his then wife, Susan Silver, while going through a divorce. Silver was an early manager of Soundgarden, as well as other Seattle bands such as Alice In Chains. She is also the person whom Krist Novocelic, Nirvanas bassist, attributes to their “proper introduction to the music industry.” After frustrations stemming from Nirvanas lesser known debut album Bleach received limited promotion from Sub-Pop, she referred them to A&R reps from larger labels and suggested hiring a lawyer in order leave the Sub-Pop.

This song slaps. Beautiful. Man I miss Chris. And Kurt. And Layne. I was the only middle schooler I knew in early 2000s rocking audioslave tees and fighting the power ✊
