listed amongst the 23 questions he
asks people to decide if he can really
love them:
5. you meet your soul mate. however, there
is a catch: every three years, someone will
break both of your soul mate's collarbones
with a crescent wrench, and there is only
one way you can stop this from happening:
you must swallow a pill that will make every
song you hear—for the rest of your life—sound
as if it is being performed by the band Alice
and Chains. when you hear Creedence
Clearwater Revival on the radio, it will sound
(to your ears) like it's being played by Alice
and Chains. If you see Radiohead live, every
one of their tunes will sound like it's being
covered by Alice and Chains. when you hear
a commercial jingle on tv, it will sound like
Alice and Chains; if you sing to yourself in the
shower, your voice will sound like the deceased
Alice vocalist Layne Staley performing a capella
(but it will only sound this way to you).
Would you swallow the pill?

I guess it depends . will my soul mate still have her collarbone broken if we are not together? I will give up music for no one, however I will do what ever to prevent my soul mates harm. and just hope death comes quick. great question.
i would say, hands down, YES. i'm a long-time fan of alice n chains.
however, because the 90's were NOT long enough ago, i have a strong belief that most people aren't willing to accept alice n chains as a legitimate band, and layne staley as a legitimate lead singer.
give it a few years.
for proof, i would like to submit "down in a hole" by ryan adams, a cover of "down in a hole" by alice n chains.
true Kate but wouldn't the cover by Ryan adams sound like Alice in chains as everything would sound like Layne Stanley. Hmmm. I am however now listening to my old alice in chains album again. but Stevie Wonder now sounds kind of funny.
