Hi Sommsters! We have listened to the song several times and we guess the lyrics go something like this ... Chris Cornell "Can=B4t Change Me" She can do anything at all Have anything she pleases Power to change what she thinks is wrong What could she want with me me Wait just on minute here I can see that she=B4s trying to read me Suddenly I know She=B4s going to change the world She=B4s going to change the world She=B4s going to change the world But she can=B4t change me No, she can=B4t change me She has the daylight at her command She gives the night its dreams She can uncover your darkest fear Make you forget you feel it Wait just on minute more I can see that she=B4s trying to free me Suddenly I know She=B4s going to change the world She=B4s going to change the world She=B4s going to change the world But she can=B4t change me No, she can=B4t change me Suddenly I can see Everything that=B4s wrong We need it What can I do, I=B4m the only thing I really have ... at all Wait just on minute here I can see that she=B4s trying to need me Suddenly I know She=B4s going to change the world She=B4s going to change the world She=B4s going to change the world But she can=B4t change me No, she can=B4t change me Later!

(Dated May 22 1999) "Cornell: We might reform!" Chris Cornell, the former Soundgarden frontman, has sensationally suggested that the band may one day reunite. In 1997 the Seattle grunge gods chose to disband after 13 years, while their fifth album, Down On The Upside, was still riding high in charts around the world. Speaking exclusively to Kerrang!, Cornell pondered the possibility of the band reforming: " Everybody still likes everybody," he said, "so it's totally plausible that we'll make another record whenever we want. It's not like one guy punched another guy and you haven't talked to them in eight years. I think as soon as everybody feels equally enthusiastic about it, we'll probably do something." Cornell's debut solo album, which features ex-Soundgarden drummer Matt Cameron on one track, is currently untitled and will hit the shops in September, UK dates are presently scheduled for October.

What's to tell that wasn't in Hype and wasn't lived through by everyone else.. It's been done and overdone.. it's not new or even interesting anymore. I mean sure, you want to choose a topic that's mildly cool to impress your friends or something.. but "grunge"? the word "grunge" gives me the creeps. heheh good morning Koggle ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 19 May 1999 14:24:55 PDT From: Kenny Bungss Subject: Soundgaeden snares Hey you SOMMSTERS !!!

ANYwhoski... well guys, ive been assigned a research paper and im doing it on the "seattle scene" and what not, so im wondering, does anyone know of or recommened ANY books about the "seattle scene"?? it would help me out SO much!!! <: ) AND BTW... to you sir, dave guy brener or WHATEVER... the reason "flame wars" start is because of people who act rudely toward one another. and YOU acted EXTREMELY rude to that guy who asked a question AND had a DISCLAIMER for his actions. he wasnt startin anything with you, so why'd you have to go and start stuff with him?? Sheesh... peace, love, hope, faith, soup and s o u n d g a r d e n always groovy, kathleen : )) ps: about the whole Chris/New Song thing: that roks!!! sheesh!!! if Carmen and Marta can hook us SOMMSters up with the song, that would rok even more!!! : ) >> There's this great book called Loser: The Story of the Seattle Music Scene. It's packed with awesome stuff. I think they have it at most Barnes and Nobles (I've been to two and they both had it) or you can order it over the net. It's got tons of Soundgarden and Nirvana and what not. ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 19 May 1999 18:03:59 EDT From: Mike Gallagher Subject: Re: THE LYRICS ... next time you hear it, tape it and send it to everyone on the list. what are you waiting for... start listening!! ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 19 May 1999 15:17:25 -0700 From: Greg Fox Subject: Re: THE LYRICS ... >next time you hear it, tape it and send it to everyone on the list. Please do NOT send it to the list. For those who download email via a slow modem, or those who are on the digest, emailing a large file like a song is an extremely bad idea. If you want to distribute it, post it on a webpage, mail the url to this list, then remove it after a couple days (if you want). Also, remember from when you subbed to the list? This is rule number two. 2. You may NOT send junk mail, spam, or files to the list - you will be unsubscribed immediately. Please don't take this the wrong way, I really want to hear the song as well, but I really don't like being forced to download huge email messages.

I know I would be tempted, but I think I would not do it in the end. Koggle is also right about Hype! -- if there's one thing we should have learned from that movie is that "the scene" needs to be left alone.
