Pop Song 583 of 1000 'Hunger Strike' Temple of the Dog 1991 Official MV https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VUb450Alpps "Hunger Strike" was written by vocalist Chris Cornell. It features a duet between Cornell and vocalist Eddie Vedder. Cornell was having trouble with the vocals at practice, when Vedder stepped in. Cornell later said "he sang half of that song not even knowing that I'd wanted the part to be there and he sang it exactly the way I was thinking about doing it, just instinctively "Hunger Strike" by Temple of the Dog is about staying true to your beliefs, even if it means not changing what you do for money or success. The song is also about taking advantage of people who don't have much. Cornell said: “I was wanting to express the gratitude for my life but also disdain for people where that’s not enough, where they want more. There’s no way to really have a whole lot more than you need usually without taking from somebody else that can’t really afford to give it to you. It’s sort of about taking advantage of a person or people who really don’t have anything.”

It's to my long-time love. It's the reality of my life, the path I've chosen and in a weird way it kind of foretold where we are right now.
