so unique performances

Bless that about him. I mourn the songs he never wrote

In Italy we have an artist like Jeff She never repeats her songs at the same way but everytime She changes the way.Her name Is ELISAA....JEFF +ELISA....my God.....goosbumbs

@12 year old me was not good at picking usernames Wave Goodbye is the song about Jeff. It's so good

The two best singers of the nineties.

Drugs create and kill.

Even Layne...Layne used to sneak away from the band to watch Jeff perform.

I'd like to think they are working together somewhere in the great beyond

Absolutely, he had some nobody else brought to the table in rock and nobody since has

@@fishstick1013 True. But every rock singer, even the not-so-good ones technically, can still teach us and treat is to something different. Adam Gontier is one of my all-time favorite singers for his naturally warm, yet unique voice, same with Corey Taylor. two guys with extremely different voices, but with extremely close vocal styles. Both like distortion, growls, and cleans mixed in.

@@zaynes5094 what's funny is that I was singing a three days Grace song the moment before I read this reply

Why is it a competition? They are both very dead

Casey P I must’ve missed the part where I said it was a competition. I was speaking as a musician and a gen x’r who was profoundly influenced by both artists. I was merely alluding to my personal feelings as to the tragic passing of either artist. I personally think Jeff was capable of achieving more in his life and music than Kurt. You know Kurt Being a junkie and all they tend to self destruct regularly anyway. Jeff’s passing was a tragic accident not self inflicted.

Kurdt?

Jeff was the real deal, in fact my username has been one of his songs for decades. He was a one off.

I was affected more by Kurt's death, he was such a tormented artist. Maybe because I discovered Jeff Buckley after he was already dead. I have a feeling though that Jeff's death could also have been suicide.

Please elaborate

@@augart89 what would you like me to elaborate on?

@@Kevin_Fiol where did the concerts took place? Was he truly as mesmerizing as people tend to claim?

He had so many incredible lines, and was the master of the heart-wrenching "near the end of the song" devastator verses that just demolish any chance you had of not collapsing into tears if you've found your soulmate and lost them for whatever reason. A few of the most catastrophic for me... "This is my story for the dislocated Who want to love but who turn to be hated Because the lies of the spirit possessed you Because the eyes of your lover resist you Listen now, you keep your aim steady As your temple turns to kiss the pistol " -I Woke Up in a Strange Place "Mother dear, the world's gone cold No one cares about love anymore What will you say When you've seen my face Father do you hear me? Do you know me? Do you even care? What will you say When you've seen my face?" -What Will You Say "The bells out in the church tower chime Burning clues into this heart of mine Thinking so hard on her soft eyes and the memory Of her sighs that it's over It's over" -Last Goodbye "This is for all the headless acrobats faces crushed in the circus dust all for the law of gravity and the price of admission" -Moodswing Whiskey Yeah, they're all from Mystery White Boy, which I honestly think is the definitive Buckley album, though that's not a very popular opinion. He'd had time to road test the songs he'd been tinkering with on his own, and finally with a producer on Grace, but they still felt a bit anchorless and meandering on that album. No version of any song on Mystery White Boy has that quality, and every song is razor sharp and whittled to perfection, especially the generally awkward version of Eternal Life that made it onto grace. You could tell it had some really interesting ideas, but was nowhere near being a good or complete song. It took Jeff's discovery of varying forms of music to give him the insight to apply the kind of playing and tonality to it that makes it the powerhouse, borderline metal song it is on Mystery White Boy. It makes the version on Grace sound like a joke. In fact, every track on Mystery White Boy is better than its studio album counterpart, to the point where I simply don't listen to Grace, unless I want to hear the excellent version of So Real on there.

Oh my god I'd kill and get killed just to see him for a second... Never been more jealous!!

The most sadness song ever written

No

Pretty much could definitely be said about every song Jeff wrote 👌

Thank you!

He knew only the cover of John Cale when he recorded "Hallelujah"...

Isaak I cannot agree more omg I love his cover so much....

He literally made the cover his own

Diogo Costa love nutshell ,mate

Live from the Moore yes

pleaseeee

Your English comes across just fine! I understand you perfectly.

Always hits me right in the feels...

"Grace" is one of my favourite albums from one of my heroes 😊❤👍#ripjeff #RIPJeffBuckley

Coincidental last name? :P

I used to see it in the store, and shamefully I never brought it home. I misinterpreted the cover photo as being some commercial kind of Nick Carter record. Boy was I wrong. But I'm glad I found it recently, really gave my life at 50 some more zing.

He was just coincidentally a beautiful man.

JB followed proto

@@iconocast how many gallons of kool-aid does a mommy gotta drink to get a voice like that. a voice like a whole white baby bruh.

So jealous. 🤘

@@stefaniebrauer128 I try love “Last Goodbye.” Jeff’s voice, guitar, that bass, drums, etc. it rocks!

Very true. Thom also was influenced by Jeff. During the recording of The Bends, he was frustrated with the vocals on Fake Plastic Trees and went to see Jeff. Then he was able to get the vocals right and finish the record.

Hey! Here is my reaction to Thom: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/mq6mfch0ydi8nJs.html

Chocolate/Mojo Pin is one of my absolute favorite live tracks. I'd be really interested what she would say about Corpus Christi Carol. :)

Great choices ! His Olympia live is incredible. So sad his work is still so underrated (except hallelujah, of course)

Would be nice if you check out his Hallelujah cover. It’s so good, his rawness and emotion translated so well in that one. 😊

Still get the chills after almost 20 years

Ofc the album version is epic as well

I would love to hear your opinion of Gregg Alexander, "New Radicals".

Oh, and if I can make two suggestions: I would love to hear your thoughts on Anneke van Giersbergen (don't know which song to recommend). I love her voice, her tone. I loved her work with The Gathering (she was the former vocalist), but she also has amazing stuff solo and in collaborations with some other of my favorite musicians: on the Devin Townsend Project and also some duets with Anathema. And this band, Anathema, would be my second recommendation. Don't know which song to recommend too, sorry. :) Also, anything by the singer Agnes Obel would be great! Maybe, Familiar or The Curse.

Hey! Here is my reaction to Agnes Obel: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/rZiqg7maks7emGw.html

zensei999 yessss!

YEEEEEEESSSS!!

Then maybe give 'Dad' a listen?

Uma BR.

Tb, minha música favorita

Yes! You have awesome taste 👍

Layne was a also a beast.

I was watching old episodes of House and of course his cover of Hallelujah was at the end of one.

Such a crazy performance. I could only imagine what it would be like to be in that crowd stunned.

Best version Yess

THe Chicago version is unbelievably, much better

Yes!!! 👏

I've been listening to Bloody KIsses and October Rust over and over these past few days.
