Chris Cornell
Musician
July 20, 1964 – May 17, 2017
Chris Cornell, an American musician, singer, and songwriter has passed away suddenly at the age of 52 according to multiple reports.
Cornell was a talented musician and lead singer for the Seattle grunge group Soundgarden and later Audioslave. His powerful vocals and song writing helped propel Soundgarden into mainstream success emerging as one of the biggest bands to come out of the grunge movement alongside others like Nirvana, Pearl Jam, and Alice in Chains.
Cornell served as the principle songwriter for Soundgarden. The band broke through to mainstream radio with the 1994 album Superunknown. The record debuted at number 1 on the Billboard 200 and featured Grammy winning hits “Black Hole Sun” and “Spoonman”.
After Soundgarden disbanded in 1997, Cornell launched a solo career before joining the super group Audio Slave in 2001. The band was a success releasing 3 albums over the span of 6 years. In 2007 they broke up and Cornell and Soundgarden reunited in 2010.
Throughout all of his musical ventures, Cornell released a total of 14 studio albums and 1 live album during his career.
Cornell was deeply involved with philanthropy. Alongside his wife, they founded the “Chris and Vicky Cornell Foundation”. The foundation aims to help children facing challenges including homelessness, poverty, abuse, and neglect. In March of 2017, Chris released the single “The Promise” on iTunes with all proceeds going to the International Rescue Committee, a global humanitarian aid, relief, and development non-governmental organization.
Cornell is survived by his wife Vicky, two daughters, and a son.
Following the news of his death, celebrities took to social media to express their condolences.

What is it with these bottom dwellers? Do they think they're clever? If it's done as a joke, it fall through flat to beyond perception of the back of beyond. Even the sociologist who got away with things they'd be arrested for today (a few very funny, others not so). Sociologically you prove Stanley Milgram right - and more. What a truly cruel thing you are doing - and how sad for YOU.

I want to give thanks to Dr Trust for bringing back my ex husband. No one could have ever made me believe that the article I’m about to write would actually one day be written. I was the world’s biggest skeptic. I never believed in magic spells or anything like this, but I was told by a reliable source (a very close co-worker) that Trust is a very dedicated, gifted, and talented person, It was one of the best things I have ever done. My love life was in shambles, I had been through two divorces and was on the brink of a third. I just couldn't face another divorce, and I wanted to try harder to make our relationship work, but my husband didn’t seem to care. and he broke up with me again. I was confused and do not know what to do again, rather them to get in contact with Dr Trust. He did a love spell that made my husband come back to me. We are now very much happy with ourselves. Dr Trust makes him realize how much we love and need each other. This man is for REAL and for good, he can also help you to fix your broken relationship. I had my husband back! It was like a miracle! He suddenly wanted to go to marriage counseling, and we’re doing very, very well, in our love life. Contact

Hi viewers online, I’m here to share my testimony about how I was helped to get my husband back. I was a cheat and my husband caught me several times. I tried fixing myself and each time I ended up cheating over and over again. I guess I didn’t realize what he meant to me until he had left me alone. I began to find a way to get him back but nothing seemed to work out perfectly until I came across an article about Dr Peter who helped a lot of people globally to get their relationships back. I made contact with him and he assured me that my husband will come back to me within 48 hours with his powerful magic for the materials needed for the work. Surprisingly, my husband came back home after 2 days saying that he still loves me and I swore never to cheat on him anymore. All thanks to Dr Peter. You can have a chat with him on his Email drpeterspellcater21@gmail.com
