Answer: Exploder

 Audioslave is a band formed from the drummer, the bassist and guitarist from Rage Against The Machine, together with the lead singer of Soundgarden, Chris Cornell. This is track 9 on the album.

3. "Oh no, don't you keep your good luck to yourself..."

Answer: Hypnotize
4. "Jesus at the back door, everything is all right, all we need is some direction..."

Answer: Set It Off

 "It's really sort of a loosely based description, how I was impacted by Martin Luther King," says Chris. "He seemed really human, and vulnerable, and suddenly it was shocking to me how much passion he had and how important he was to our culture."
5. "Drown if you want, and I'll see you at the bottom, where you'll crawl on my skin, and put the blame on me so you don't feel a thing..."

Answer: Cochise

 This was the first single released. The video is them playing with about 20 tons of fireworks going off around them. The band also played this song when they appeared on Letterman's show.

Answer: Light My Way
7. "And in the aching night, under satellites, I was not received, built with stolen parts, a telephone in my heart..."

Answer: Like A Stone

 The song is about waiting for people to arrive in Heaven.
11. "Left alone forever and for crimes unclear, with my patience gone..."

Answer: Gasoline

 Chris says: "That's one of my recluse songs, isolated songs...it is sort of describing that feeling of just kind of sitting alone with yourself and how you can kind of bug out doing it."
12. "Staring at the loss, looking for a cause, and never really sure, nothing but a hole, to live without a soul, and nothing to be learned..."

Answer: Shadow On The Sun

 Chris says: "The focus of that was really how somebody can, without knowing it, kind of become they're own worst influence and a bad influence on the people around them, even though the people might not notice it, or they themselves might not notice it."
13. "I kept rolling on and never thought you'd wind up chasing me..."

Answer: Getaway Car

 Chris has refused to talk about this song because "It's personal."
14. "Pearls and swine bereft of me, long and weary my road has been..."
