Soundgarden - Jesus Christ Pose Lyrics






And you stare at me
In your Jesus Christ pose
Arms held out
Like you've been carrying a load
And you swear to me
You don't want to be my slave
But you're staring at me
Like I need to be saved
In your Jesus Christ pose
Arms held out
In your Jesus Christ pose
Thorns and shroud
Like it's the coming of the Lord
And I swear to you
That I would never feed you pain
But you're staring at me
Like I'm driving the nails
In your Jesus Christ pose
And you stare at me
In your Jesus Christ pose
Arms held out like it's
The coming of the Lord
And would it pay you more to walk on water
Than to wear a crown of thorns
It wouldn't pain me more to bury you rich
Than to bury you poor
In your Jesus Christ pose

  3. B.... ....

    in the early '90s, mtv banned this video for controversial lyrics, even though it defends jesus & christianty.
    also, mtv banned 'hands all over' for controversial lyrics, even though it defends nature.

  4. A.... ....

    Okay people
    Watch this when your high

  5. i.... ....

    Dat bass is NASTY

  6. T.... a....

  8. J.... C....

    *head banging intensifies*

  10. D.... L....

    Brilliant.

  11. �.... �....

    Grunge Forever!

  12. E.... V....

    El video es una copia a Sepultura. Falta de originalidad por parte de Soundgarden, aunque la canción es muy buena. Pero nunca hicieron buenos videoclips los soundgardens

  13. W.... l....

    Hope he's not in Hell.

  14. F.... Z....

    Video editor:
    How many pictures of crosses you want ?
    Soundgarden:YES!

  15. o.... ....

    For God so loved the World that he gave them squirrels that whoever should believe in them would give thanks for their comedy, trees and air to breath. But the people, in their ignorance rejected the squirrels and killed them, so they were condemned. i love Christ, Yeshua... if you reject the squirrels, and hate them, odds are, you know nothing about Christ and in fact are a demon yourself. Pardon me, i abhor the religion that is based on breaking every commandment of Yah.. including taking the Lords name in vain by pretending like we are him.. aint nobody here Christ, oh but they need the slaves, peaceful, quiet, never to be true or reasonable in the post truth world..... ahhhhhhh, what a voice

  16. L.... B....

    Chris, unb Eli evable pop muzic. Talk about mistaken identity. Mocking My Guy is like saying your music is shit. When really " IT'S " "The Shit".......so when you Come Home, keep that "Off My Wave"...Love Always..... never mind the pun.Cheers.

  17. H.... ....

    When T posing was not popular.

  18. J.... S....

    INRI.rest in peace chris.x

  19. P.... L....

    don't be sad. chris did exactly what he wanted to do and fucking killed it along the way. oh. except for that audio slave shit. but any way... chris cornell forever!!! iisten to louder than love!

  20. C.... J....

    This us a very shameful video! Don't like this band anymore!

  21. A.... S....

    Miss you Chris

  22. S.... A....

    Meo tema ctm

  23. o.... ....

    Horrible video for a horrible and tremendously overrated band. Garbage

  24. C.... F....

    First time I dropped acid at 15 I listened to this on repeat for about 4 hours. Literally staring at the ceiling letting this song completely consume me. The friend I was with was not amused however🤷

  25. C.... K....

    No reason for hit "dont like", kid!

  26. �.... N....

    Worse band in all of grunge!!!



    OverFuckingRated!!!!

  27. E.... B....

    What the fuck happened to music? In less then 2 decades we went from killer bands like: Sound Garden, Nirvana, Alice In Chains, STP, Pearl Jam and so many more to absolute garbage. I'd rather listen to someone have explosive diarrhea than the music of today.

    This is one of the greatest songs, just fucking awesome!!!

    Thumbs up if you have the "Singles" soundtrack.

  28. B.... B....

    some pain going on in this video. jesus didnt strugle as much as you think. the worst thing is having no one. the seperation on earth if no one likes us. if we feel no one likes us. how can we make a video blaming jesus, if we are hurting as a human? didnt we have freedom on earth? WHo messes us up? parents and their prescription drugs? neglect? when we get older we can escape. we cant stay in it when we are free now as adults

  29. q.... e....

    Te um ataque epiléptico

  30. A.... A....

    Shout out to all the load carriers and loaders. Peace and God bless

  31. C.... L....

    Thayil looks a lot like Jesus to me in this video. Uncanny. I am a Christian by the way, strong in the faith. I don't video this least bit troubling. I know exactly what message the authors are trying to send. What do you suppose the offering of the sand is representative of?

  32. D.... R....

    Chris Cornell is a fucking legend...

  33. K.... C....

    Jesus Christ Pose Will Always Be My Favorite Song EVER Written Kimmy Thayil

  34. C.... C....

    Grunge: the genre that humour forgot.

    C.... C....

    Clac Clackerson Only if you don't consider sarcasm, irony, or dark humour to be funny

    C.... C....

    @Azraelmaximilian Of course they're funny. But grunge is really an American phenomenon, so I won't hold my breath waiting for you to provide examples.

    C.... C....

    I mean this song is already an example, so you won't have to hold your breath at all

    C.... C....

    @Azraelmaximilian I've always liked this song, but it ain't no thigh-slapper. Not that that's even important. Now, if you don't mind, point out the sarcasm or irony or dark humour in this song.

    C.... C....

    It can be verbal or visual.

  35. P.... B....

    Never have I wanted to hug my pillow after urinating on a NUN then after listening to this song back in 1991. It has FULL spectrum of my feelings and emotions. It's the day i knew I would die a massive Soundgarden fan! RIP Chris.

  36. c.... l....

    sometimes you gotta admit that songs this good will never be made again R.I.P CC

  37. D.... z....

    Ammazza come spakkavano i SOUNDGARDEN!!! oggi questi miti sono solo nei ricordi felici di chi ha potuto ascoltarli o meglio vederli live ...quando ancora il cuore, la rabbia, la potenza il sentimento, il GROOVE erano elementi fondanti della musica rock ...oggi solo deserto!!!CLONIAMOLI!!!

  38. K.... W....

    I saw these guys during the 1996 Olympics in Underground Atlanta! God I can’t describe how insane that was. Beautiful.

  39. R.... T....

    This clip would be censored even in our days!

  40. l.... g....

    Está ai a decada de 90 os USA pra divulgar o Satanismo

  41. S.... T....

    You can't pull that off in your 50's. I get why he did what he did.

  42. K.... C....

    Kim Thayil is sooooo sexxxxy Call me Kimmy!!!!! Haha Looooovvveeee KIRA

  43. C.... C....

  57. d.... a....

    i was a naive international undergrad early 90s. a CD mail club sends a list of albums to pick from.
    So i pick the CDs for Black Sabbath-Black Sabbath, Soundgarden-Badmotorfinger, Stone Temple Pilots-Core, RATM-RATM, Alice In Chains‎–Dirt and a few others.
    and things have never been the same afterwards...

  80. M.... ....

    Na not lo Creo! I don't believe it isn't close to Sepultura. Sepultura los melhores!!🤟🏻🤟🏻🤟🏻🤟🏻🤟🏻

  81. c.... ....

    To anyone who wants to try and play this song on drums, good luck with that. I've attempted time and time again, and JESUS, is it tough.

  82. S.... T....

    The guy who looks and sings like this? Doesn't want any part of getting old or being some nostalgia band tour. None of that. They want to be cutting edge and new and fresh.

  83. �.... m....

    🤘🤘

  84. M.... B....

    Jesus Christ Pose ist jedesmal genial!
    Der Clip ist einfach super psychedelisch!!😉

  85. L.... S....

    Dammit, i love SG and Chris, one of the best rock singers EVER, but i hate the fact this song is a diss to Perry Farrell. In fact SG would have not gotten as big as they did without Jane's Addiction, like many, many bands in the 90s.

  86. h.... s....

    Bad to the Bone !!!

  87. D.... P....

    Diossss cuánta furezaaaaa😱😱😱😱😱😱

  88. G.... M....

    Chris didn't have to flex on us like he did in Soundgarden but I'm glad he did. RIP

  89. B.... ....

    Wonder how this one went over when (if) he got there.

  90. m.... P....

    In the beginning Soundgarden was just another pretentious Seattle based trash music group, as you can hear in this awful, piece of crap song.

  91. K.... C....

    Hiiii my Soundgarden Drummer Husband Matt Cameron

  92. L.... F....

    Como se eu conduzisse os pregos...
