Chris Cornell has received two Grammy nominations for his posthumous album, No One Sings Like You Anymore Vol 1.
The singer was nominated for Best Rock Album, and Best Rock Performance for “Nothing Compares 2 U.” The album is a handpicked collection of 10 cover songs, which he personally selected and sequenced to celebrate the artists and songs that most inspired him.
The album was recorded by Chris in 2016 and is his last fully completed studio album. It features covers of songs from John Lennon, Ghostland Observatory, Harry Nilsson, Electric Light Orchestra, Lorraine Ellison, and more. All instruments on No One Sings Like You Anymore were played by Chris Cornell and Brendan O’Brien, who produced and mixed the album.
“Working with Chris on this record was one of the great joys of my life,” says O’Brien. “We had a great time doing it and had plans to do more songs at some point. I miss him very much and wish he were here to enjoy some of the recognition it’s getting.”
“This album is so special because it is a complete work of art that Chris created from start to finish,” says his widow, Vicky Cornell.
“His choice of covers provides a personal look into his favorite artists and the songs that touched him. He couldn’t wait to release it. This moment is bittersweet because he should be here doing it himself, but it is with heartache and joy that we share this special album.”
