Jeff Buckley's Grace is one of the finest albums. Ever. His voice is a transportation device. Within seconds, you're THERE. Relating, and feeling KNOWN. Beautiful.
@cloudshad0ws4 жыл бұрын
Grace is fantastic, but I think the live setting is where Jeff truly shined. Live at Sine-e is amazing. Just Jeff, his electric guitar, and his vocal chords and it's UNBELIEVABLE. It's really hard to believe someone could sing like that LIVE. Mystery White Boy is also a fanstastic album that has songs from a handful of live shows during one of his tours (this time with a band). I love Grace, but I honestly don't know if I ever listened to it again after hearing a live version of every one of the songs on it. No reason to.

Diane Davies his legacy is both ours to keep, and ours to share. The divinity of such love and loss seems at times utterly unfair, so sadly laced with an uncertainty rooted in passionate despair. From a sentiment so woeful to fill the hearts of the world so full of loving and longing so hopefully strong it may draw lonely souls back to rewrite all their wrongs. With the voice of an angel apparent behind the blackened hair, opened up with soulful regress for separated souls to reunite and heartbreak repair.

Been listening to Jeff for many years now. Tracked down everything I could find on the guy. Read as much as I could. Not ashamed to say he struck me in a wholly different way than anyone else ever did. He made me realize what was possible in regards to artistry, and that one shouldn't limit one self from exploring your feelings in the context of music and it's boundless opportunities. He was so varied in his expression, but you could never ever take away the angelic presence of his voice; his lyrics - or hell, even the covers he did - combined with his flawless phrasing, which somehow held a great lot of desperation in its tone, it was always astounding to me - ephemeral even. But the deeper I went into exploring his legacy, and trying to piece together his character, the more I lost this perception of him as being something inhuman, and I realized he must've been quite the opposite: he was as human as they come. The notion of love and relationship, be it friendly, romantically or of course in terms of family, it was woven into his creative expression. I think he was just as you would imagine him: a flurry of emotions, but one that were hosted by a man who could communicate it SO fantastically well. Honestly, I don't think he was a happy guy, or at least burdened to some degree, but at the same time - and without trying to glorify misery - I think it gave a lot to his world view. He would always come across as this mellow and silly character in interviews, but to my knowledge he had a lot of anger. The more you realize he is in fact just a young man, the more you appreciate the dismantling of his heavenly persona and instead realize how amazing humans can be if they just worry about their craft!

This song got me through one of the hardest times in my life. Late 90’s. “Maybe I’m too young to keep good love from going wrong” that line summed up a ten yr relationship. I’ll always love you Bonnie.

This version from his live in Chicago concert is the best. When he Adlibs and sings "I didnt see you before but I see you now" brings tears to my eyes nearly every time.

I just bawled my eyes out. Again. Thank you. I saw Jeff live in 1996 in Australia and I still miss him ❤️

This is probably my favourite song in Buckley's amazing catalog. It has brought me to tears more than once. The man had such a way with words and the voice to carry it all.

Vulnerable, heart wrenching... Every lyric is painful and beautiful... Just when you think it hurts, it starts to hurt more with each progression. Ouch. And love. 💚💚💚

Iam addicted to see these people hear and appreciate the genius of Jeffs music and singing. It always blows them away.

It’s cool how much Jeff Buckley makes sense to black people. There something lost in translation from one group/culture to another except when we speak about Buckley. Everyone gets him it’s cool

I'm a simple man. I hear a Jeff Buckley song, I hit 'like'. This song still brings tears in my eyes. We lost him too early.

!!!! Whhhoo I love Jeff Buckley. His stuff is other worldly. So great to see when people discover him. I discovered him in my college years I think. He is a whole mood. Make sure you check out the rest of the Grace album. Oh and the live from Signe songs!

Another Buckley recommendation for you: "Everybody Here Wants You." Jeff knew his way around some soul and this jam is a real babymaker.

My dad became a fan of you a couple months ago from some Led Zeppelin you covered, he’s always loved this song and has played it for as long as I could remember, was definitely not expecting this to randomly pop up in my recommended but thank you!

Very seldom can I listen to anything by Jeff Buckley without tearing up. He might be in Heaven now but he brought a small glimpse of heaven to us during his short stay. Anyone who has the gift to hear his music has been blessed

I always took the opening to be the sound of a boat with the accordion sound being made appropriate. There is not one bad song on Grace or anywhere else as far as Jeff Buckley went.

Since I first got this album in 1994, this has been my favorite album of all time. Jeff can sing his ass off. He has a small but tasty catalog. Unfortunately, he drowned in the Wolfe River on the way to the studio to record the follow up. I recommend almost everything. But "Grace" should be next. Jeff plays all the guitars, the harmonium and all the vocals. There is a note he hits in the backing vocal that sends chills down my spine every time. This also is a favorite song by anyone. Great live as well. Very improvisational. As a compliment to his talent, he was nominated for a Grammy for Best Male Vocal Performance for Everybody Here Wants You, a studio DEMO.

Your reaction brings me back to when I first heard JB, the year he died. Thank you for this. And shout out indeed to the entire band!

So.. I never comment on anything. This video. I am so glad I found it. Jeff is my favorite artist, and this, my all-time favorite song. My then boyfriend learned this on guitar when he was courting me, and it became our first dance song at our wedding. Your reaction, your soul absorbing this song... it's everything, sir. I am so glad it shook you the way it shook me. You seem like a beautiful person. When you know Jeff, YOU. KNOW.

I’ve always felt Jeff fully left a piece of himself behind in every song he recorded. When we hear him now… that still feels true.
