[rediger] Tekst

Chris snakke om hva teksten handler om

	I don't know how everyone else feels...but I definitely go through periods of extreme self-confidence, feeling like I can do anything. Perhaps a fan will sense that, like in a performance, and the hero image creeps out. But then someone will say something, however insignificant, or I'll get something in my head and, all of a sudden, I'm plummeting in the opposite direction, I'm a piece of shit, and I really can't do anything about it. That's where 'Outshined' comes from, and why I'll never consider myself a hero.[1]

[rediger] Musikk Video

Musikk videoen ble lagd av Jonathan Dayton og Valerie Faris som har blant annet lagd filmen Little Miss Sunshine. Musikk videoen er en av de mest populære musikk video av Soundgarden fans, men soundgarden mener at musikk videoen er ganske teit. Det ble lagd to versioner av musikk videoen en kanadisk version og en internasjonal versjon. De tok bort gitar soloen til Kim Thayil i musikk videoen til og gjøre den kortere.

Kim Thayil snakker om musikk videoen:

	All I can remember is that they cut the guitar solo to make the video 'single-length.' I thought that was a stupid thing. Here we are, a guitar band, and the guitar solo -it may not be a great guitar solo- was edited out just for the video. That's ridiculous. It was a heavy song and our most popular video, even though it was a crap video. It never kicks in or explodes; there's no dynamics. The band never loosens up and explores the riff because the solo was taken out.Kim Thayil

Kim snakker om Musikk videoen:

	It was Buzz Bin at MTV and got played a lot. I think when it was in Buzz Bin, simultaneously Nirvana's 'Smells Like Teen Spirit' and Pearl Jam's 'Alive' were also in 'Buzzbin' and they were also from Seattle, so maybe we were a little bit overshadowed - a little bit 'outshined' at that point! I didn't like our video either - it stunk! It was a last minute thing. I believe it was the couple who made that Smashing Pumpkins video where they were on the moon and stuff. Well, this was one of their early videos - and I hated it! That's what I remember most about that song - just how much I couldn't stand the video![2]
