Jeff Buckley - Grace (Acoustic - WHFS Radio 1995)

[@ice9planet]

There will never be another like you.

[@kevtruth]

What a great impression of Costello. He nailed it

[@playingforbritain]

kevtruth Ohhhh, I thought for some reason he was talking about Presley... thought it was a bit off, haha

[@maria.maverick]

He was a good impressionist actually!

[@dwillerd]

There will never be someone as good as Jeff in this world. His voice was so pure, so raw, so emotional and powerful, his lyrics were so true and relatable, his harmonies and melodies were so ethereal. He was truly someone from another plan of existence. He was really one and only...

[@stephaniehammond4425]

Denis Willer Jeff NEVER ran out of breath, either. I used to think, surely he can't hit that note toward the end, every single time. Never heard him miss. Astonishing. The only word I can muster with all my triteness, to describe Jeff. You, however, described him perfectly.

[@elisaw8367]

right. There had been other singers who touched me deeply (Thom Yorke, Chris Cornell, David Bowie, Lane Staley...) but nonetheless they don't come close to what Jeff & his music does to me. He was so passionate, multifaceted, vulnerable... his yearning... god. Whenever I listen to him I get this feeling in my gut that is SO intense. It feels like anguish and bliss all at the same time. It cannot be put into words, cause it's this otherworldly experience. It is disarmingly beautiful. It leaves me speechless.

[@ShrapnelTwo]

@@stephaniehammond4425 yes I'm always amazed by his lung capacity, its unreal

[@leptitprinceduparc]

Rimbaud in music

[@HenryWaltonJones]

Ah Denis,4 years on from this beautiful ode to Jeff,we're still listening to this one off genius.Your comment sums him up better then I ever could.Thanks Denis.

[@SleighJessi]

Right before the band starts the announcer says "our time is so short..."

[@heatherstahler8451]

SleighJessi that kills me every time

[@chuckthebull]

This guy was genius. he left us too early..

[@ryanthegreat805]

Indeed

[@owenmarshallg2835]

best acoustic version of this song...

[@chuckthebull]

He was spot on in the zone with it..

[@HelloSpyMyLie]

For sure. This is the 90s stratosphere. How can one deny the power....

[@callixvision6481]

Best version for me

[@amongstedibles3672]

"OUR TIME IS SO SHORT

[@northofbrandon]

The first time I heard Jeff it shook me to my adolescent core. I put on Grace and cried in bed as I played it over and over. Truly something else.

[@BreakerdeGodot]

Took me months to realize he was talking about Elvis Costello, not Elvis Presley.

[@lucaschacon8362]

John Anastasio same here 😂

[@jizzyjake6783]

I believe that was when he performed Didos Lament...pretty amazing

[@KristaWaple]

That was a pretty awesome parody of Costello's voice!

[@faustoraimundo196]

Took me 7 minutes thanks to your comment

[@braykasixOfficiel]

Loool

[@matts1227]

Extraordinary vocal control he had, and an impeccable guitarist. Incredibly gifted.

[@lizzie1250]

I fall in love with him all over again, every time I hear him speak, sing... shivers every time. RIP sweet angel

[@Mousieicle95]

Just can't get enough ..

[@kevburke]

Jesus he was just amazing

[@GingerDwarfHole]

15 years later and Jeff's music still lives on!

[@julieclifford7698]

Now 25 ♥️💚💙❤️‍🩹🤍🕊

[@elevenart]

A Jeff night. Like astral travel - expansive.

[@emiltvede7930]

He is the best singer I ever heard

[@Laura......]

can't help but hold my breath through most the 2nd half of that performance.

[@thestrangemanreturns]

why

[@diegorock]

this is actually surreal

[@고현철-j6b]

Truly poetic voice...

[@TotitoSanti17]

he was out of this world, can't believe than a men like he had ever existed

[@thebandoworms8942]

So good

[@ShrapnelTwo]

I can't believe this performance is live!! Or any of his performances for that matter lol, he's just that good

[@Tenon96]

Jeff Buckley - singer, who turned my world.Realy Greatest person!RIP JEFF...

[@CargadosCarajos]

I won't ever get enough of this :)

[@d1iv1ine]

Still not over how great this is

[@waitinthefire66]

I could have died and felt fulfilled just hearing that live and in person had i been in the studio. It would have been like being in Gods workshop seeing Him craft one of his blessed creatures to perfection and endowing Jeff at this moment the ability to pull from the cosmos what he needed at that moment to share with the world. Im just baffled as to why there is no video of this. Its absolutely the best radio impromptu performance ever.

[@user-qt5uf8pg2x]

I can't stop listening to Jeff since 2006

[@Thomasringpetersen]

Best MTV unplugged that never was. Truly some next level shit compared to,yeah......before, then and now. Musical genious.

[@trentcarrig3138]

How are those notes even possible to hit?! God bless Scott

[@TheAndreluizcarneiro]

Trent Carrig Scott?

[@gogol109]

Scott Moorhead. He grew up with that name.

[@TheAndreluizcarneiro]

Pradipto Dattagupta no he didnt

[@liamwade8537]

elninjalaranja he did though.

[@JamesDel]

Yep he did, Scottie Moorhead.

[@rb919]

His Elvis Costello impersonation at the beginning is SPOT ON and sooo funny.. damn, I miss WHFS !

[@Hawkeye156]

Jaw dropping..Wow does he turn into a fucking animal at the end... it's incredible.

[@Ogumomaru]

His best live vocal performance.

[@orelpap]

You should listen to the live at olympia, impressive.

[@nyr14r]

And the Live at NPA 😉 I think it's the absolute best vocal performance I've never heard !!

[@bathstreetblues2588]

Best vocal performance.

[@Thomasringpetersen]

Holy fuck Scary how good that man was. Just jamming his Way through this song, being so confident, effortless and playfull. One of the most difficult songs to Sing and play. I dont Care What genre of Music you play. Tell Me about someone who is at his level. I would love to hear it👍

[@kellerwyant1704]

A rap muscian that is at his level is definitely MF DOOM

There's the moon asking to stay 🎶💜

[@zeinab258]

One of my most favorite songs

[@dsmiles4324]

Still loving Jeff in 2024!

[@B3khX]

JB was so humorous and upbeat. I remember him getting the tag of 'melancholy ' and may have not accidently drowned being said at that time. This couldn't be further from the truth and those who knew him. He most definately wasn't troubled and unhappy with life as heard at intro. For the Love of BUCK always ❤!

[@juliangonzalez2953]

We'll never know. Sometimes people feel like shit but don't want to worry others so they act cool

[@juliangonzalez2953]

I really hope he had a happy life tho

[@marosimálna]

He may not have always been happy, but his death was an accident. R.i.p. :(

[@annbillams2432]

he has such a pretty voice...

[@ananula7]

Oh, Jeff...

[@katybrankin6152]

Thank you GCSE music setworks for having this on there!

[@nicolashugli9512]

Bonjour aux amoureux de musique live, je n'avais pas conscience du génie de Jeff Buckley lorsqu'il chante libre de la contrainte de jouer de ses instruments, prolongement de nôtre Esprit. Cela peut paraître troublant, mais empreinte de pouvoir partager sa voix naturelle mais, au combien magnifique, à l'instar d'une florissante Étoile.

[@EdersinhoMckey]

so so surreal.. you are amazing !!! .. R.I.P my sweetheart !!! Ecuador must have been in love with you !!

[@s1ygirl]

Fantastic intro! Never heard it before. Only after the part where he says Crocodile rock and the song. Thanks!!!!!

[@Elcanaldemaxiok]

An angel... Majestic!

[@guitarsinger7382]

Probably the greatest rock/Grunge singer in the history of music!

[@FernandesFPS]

He's not grunge just because he was from 90'

[@grafito4438]

I grew up with grunge as a teen and with Jeffs music as my alter ego. At the time for me Jeff’s music was not like anyone else’s I heard before - it was as though he was on a totally different path that he’d paved all himself.

[@JiihaaS]

I'd say he's on par with Chris Cornell in all of alt rock (that I've heard). I believe they were good friends too.

[@James.E90]

Truly gifted

[@Elcanaldemaxiok]

Omg... Amazed

[@bernardinopulpoix2679]

He is so beautiful.. ~Beenardino Pulpo IX

[@Hawkeye156]

Woah, lots of pics I've not seen of him too!

[@andrewjones5801]

I'd give a kidney to be able to sing like Jeff, probably the other one too if I could play guitar like him. Failing that, I'd accept being 20% as cool.

no its a headvoice e5. hes a leggiero tenor so the way he hits the e5 in that particular instance made it soudn like falsetto. but its clearly supported by full voice function.
