Jeff is the tear that hangs inside my soul forever...

[@MrJordiBaby]

The most beautiful love song ever, in my opinion.

[@qbsrd]

Personally it's of the most beautiful for sure, God Only Knows by the Beach Boys is one of them

[@leahgavaldon7234]

Mine as well

[@prending]

Well your point that it never resolved and didn't go to D is exactly why this song is soo good. Lover you should have come over... But they didn't... So the song being about a love not resolved and the longing in that... Means the music emotionally resonates in a very cogent manner with the emotion within the song... Love the reactions Dave keep em up x

[@davidmcmullen6485]

I actually never thought about it that way. Great point.

[@alexwallis-banbury7713]

Word painting at its finest

[@meowzebub9667]

The lack of resolution musically speaking could also be intended to reinforce the lyrical theme of an unresolved romantic entanglement.

[@brucenadeau5920]

Jake, I’m a long time Buckley fanatic and I’ve found quickly once I got into theory years back that Buckley often doesn’t resolve chords or he draws it out before resolving back. I think it’s one of the things that makes his music unique

[@starshinemoonbeamlight]

The instrument you are hearing in the beginning is a Harmonium. Jeff purchased it around 1993. 😉

[@gabrielbotsford791]

Yup

[@maceomaceo11]

It is easy to mock emotive singers. But Jeff Buckley's emotive singing, accompanied with his insightful far beyond his years lyrics, his arranging abilities make him impossible to not take seriously. His sincerity is undeniable, and it is in every performance he ever gave.

[@jphoenixfan]

Beautiful lyrics! One of my favorite Jeff Buckley songs.

[@brucenadeau5920]

Hell yeah Buckley! This and Lilac Wine are my two fav songs by him

[@212mochaman]

I saw a guitarist for a metal band say that Jeff Buckley is the 9th most underrated artist of all time and that he was FAR more then just Hallelujah. That was a real eye opener

[@MojoPin1983]

@Matthew Macrow Who said that?

[@212mochaman]

@@MojoPin1983 can't remember his name but he was reacting to watch mojo's 20 greatest singers and he named him in an "honourable mentions" subsection of underrated singers

[@cromax9855]

Could it be become the knight?

[@212mochaman]

@@cromax9855 thats the guy, cheers

[@reinerbraun2934]

​@@212mochaman He's easily top 5, maybe the most talented and emotive singer ever. Robert Plant said he's one of the greatest vocalists he's ever heard.

[@paulolapa3040]

Maybe my favorite Jeff Buckley's song. Usually the studio version of a song is better for a first time reaction, but for Jeff Buckley I always prefer the live versions. When playing live he really gets loose with his vocals. The versions on the "Mystery White Boy" live album are great. So I never came back to the "Grace" (original) album. In this song he sounds so restrained

[@MrsWishieWashy]

Goosebumps every time. Thank you. This was a funny reaction i loved it.

[@andreiferariu]

Honestly it's pretty amazing to hear someone analyse the intricate details of a song not necessarily in the genre they're most familiar with and find little things to like

[@aerofil11]

this kind of perception of music like in this review, was one of the reasons why Jeff left the "Berklee music institute"

[@brucenadeau5920]

Hahaha DH cannot wait to you get to more Buckley! He’s gonna drive you nuts at times with his unorthodoxy. At times it’s killed me wanting to a typical change and getting Buckley lol

[@brucenadeau5920]

Wow I expected you to score this in the low to mid 7’s honestly! I was shocked in the 8’s, I applaud you!

[@robertmanley4828]

You're one of these rare individuals who are gifted or cursed with the inability to bullshit how they hear music. I watch a lot of reactioneers who I can tell if they are legit or real. Most of them are not but I appreciate that they give the song an open minded chance even it's because of their patreons or subscribers. But with you I can see clearly you know your shit. So I do expect honest appraisals. Especially when you can name the chords as they are playing. In saying that are you prepared to do a "redo" of that Jeff Buckley song you have second thoughts on. Maybe try listening to the album version of the song Grace and see if it compares to your original assessment.. It could be fun

[@noahtomato3515]

Great use of inversions in this song. Those F#s you heard were the bottom note of 1st inversion D chords, so the Ds were there!

[@MrsWishieWashy]

He didn’t go to the D because his lover never came over so it was never resolved 🧐

[@THEDavidHeretic]

Ahhhhhhhh

[@nettiemac]

He was amazing!

[@ianfranks541]

I like this! Easy listening. A great song to listen to when you and your souse are out for a ride around town. I love this. Almost 17k subs! Whoohoo! Congrats David.

[@OGGOAT23]

Always seen this album, always heard his name, knew he died young, but it's the first time listening to him (don't ask why). Not bad not bad

[@ct5625]

Jeff Buckley is one of the most underrated artists of the last three or four decades. When you have so many other amazing performers twice his age crediting him with being an inspiration, you know there has to be something there. It's not just his voice and range - which is remarkable - it's his musicianship, his composing, his poetry and his integrity while doing all of that. Grace wasn't even that big when it came out, but his live performances kept pulling people in and I think the label was planning to basically throw whatever they had his way to keep him creating. It really felt like Grace was just the start of an incredible career and it's so sad that we lost him so young.

[@paris5865]

My all time fave ❤️

[@cnw8891]

I love Tim Buckley and discovered him through some covers John Frusciante did. I haven't delved into Jeff's work yet but after hearing this I feel a binge coming on. What a talent.

[@evelyn_w]

It was actually Josh Klinghoffer and I think he did a great job covering Jeff Buckley!

[@cnw8891]

@@evelyn_w Josh covered a Jeff Buckley song in concert but John did Tim Buckley's (Jeff's dad) "Song To The Siren" on The Empyrean and I think he did another one in concert also. They both did a great job. kzbin.info/www/bejne/iovKqqlnYs5pqZY

[@evelyn_w]

@@cnw8891 oh right! I forgot about that one!

[@advantagevarnsen7436]

Only 3 minutes in but if you bag this song there is going to be trouble 😂 it is amazing!

[@jphoenixfan]

Agree!! 👍🏼😂

[@Zeus-the-mighty]

I think the A was only used as a passing chord in the chorus with a somewhat clever riff over it. So, it did resolve to D more than it sounds. When you heard an A in the bridge section it was actually a D with an A bass tone. Also, as others mentioned, Jeff was influenced by NFAK so the intro is a harmonium.

[@brucenadeau5920]

Yeah most are audio songs, unless the Chicago DVD or Paris show, then you get Jeff live. A tragedy we lost him so young and he didn’t get much done video wise.

[@beckybarnes4651]

His dad Tim might be worth a listen, I seem to remember a song by him called something like 'Dolphins' which was pretty beautiful.

[@MojoPin1983]

The instrument that Jeff plays at the beginning of the song is a harmonium.

[@hardcorechristopher9174]

Good

[@adrock1011]

I sure hope somebody requested the sky is a landfill… cause that song rocks The instrument is a concertina… i have one… ;) Jeffs funeral service was held in a church on montague st… the same street from dylans tangled up in blue… i used to take the m/r train right outside the church… it was really when i first got into buckley… unfortunately it was years after he passed… but there was still a connection there

[@MojoPin1983]

@adrock1011 The instrument in question is actually a harmonium.

[@adrock1011]

@@MojoPin1983 judging by your name, ill give you the benefit of the doubt. Oddly, neither concertina nor harmonium are listed in the wiki entry… but harmonium is listed in the discogs entry. I do think that david was thinking if a concertina though by his description. Thank you for correcting me though

[@MojoPin1983]

@@adrock1011 It's definitely a harmonium. It is listed in the Grace liner notes, plus I know that Jeff owned one. There are even a few photos of him playing one, which I can't seem to find, at the moment.

[@gabrielbotsford791]

Harmonium

[@lynnmcclaine7683]

You're unhappy that they did not resolve to the D. Most people, including myself, have no idea what that means. I just love the song and Jeff Buckley!

[@vincentpeake]

Harmonium.

[@annwalsh-t3r]

It doesn't resolve to the d because the love story never resolves. Purposeful. Did you listen to the poignant words? No issues with his vocals? He's vocal god. Maybe the best we have ever had...

[@tammyjoma]

It's funny and a little frustrating to see a thinker analyze this emotional masterpiece. 🙂

[@mikemorosohk9131]

I would love to see a reaction to Fake Dinosaur Bones by The Callous Daoboys!

[@paris5865]

I think this version is too polished and I love the rawness of the passion in the acoustic version that’s on here on KZbin

[@weirdomon2]

Hilarious, cause of so much irritation due the lack of D. .... Yeah.

[@paultomaszewski1964]

Concertina is what your looking for?

[@paulalloyd8860]

Grace live!!! Live is better

[@scotthess8709]

Little late here but for as low as you grade his performances, you sure do seem to evaluate a lot of his album! I like that because you drive me nuts - in a fun way, because I wonder to whom you'd ever give a 9+? And no, it ws not a "band" ... it was just Jeff and he picked up some players to have a band behind him - he is that good. For those of us that like alternative rock, he is the epitome of operatic grunge. And just his voice should get him a 9 every time. Grace on BBC... you questioned liking it. I think you just don't like that kind of music. That's fine! And, nearly no one that is a Jeff Buckley fan even knows his backup performers. I am good with that, his voice is used perfectly in a genre not usually having good voices (few exceptions: Cantrell or Cornell). Cobain and Vedder ... make good songs... can't always sing well. Actually Cobain has an awful voice! So maybe you are a closet Buckley fan?!!! lol... he does have chops, and in a very excellent tone (how his voice sounds).. I like Led Zeppelin, but Buckley > Plant. Simply because his voice is smoother and doesn't fracture and is more pleasing to at least my ears. I don't agree but nice review. You put your time in to try and like a musical style you don't like! Thanks man!

[@paulalloyd8860]

Noooo live only
