The song is All Night Thing and it is studio recorded by Temple of the dog and mashed with the live version just sang by the lead singer Chris Cornell (RIP). I used the Audacity program to put the two songs together at the right times. Personally, I like the live version better.

Who knew design played such an important roll on how the reader/listener/watcher felt in a certain moment?
