That scream is incredible, what a range.

[@luvpants2012]

Walrus81 reminded me of the movie Talk Radio lol.

[@SuperCutiepie1012]

he had such a dulcet voice. Both in speaking and singing. So beautiful

[@darkcnotion]

Thank god there are many interviews

[@Oyuki-Mayonesa]

Only Jeff's music and love at first sight can make time stand still for me.

[@melodykittel6961]

I shit myself when he screamed lmao

[@grahams1609]

Great interview. Interviewer gives Jeff space. Both music geeks! Jeff whistle is great too!

[@Blue_orchidreck]

I love him 😢

1:10 ...How soon is now? by The Smiths (Morrissey)!!!! love this song! 1:55 Music needs time and space to play it, obviously. Music needs time to live in and sometimes is a memory, a childhood memory, or a really dramatic memory..a fight, a loss, a death, a birth, a movie..something totally ordinary. The song captures that..

[@eklypps1134]

Thank you for sharing. Remembering him today...

[@muscovy5000]

This is amazing! I love hearing about Jeff's musical influences and hearing his Bad Brains wait was f'ing amazing and funny as F!

[@michaelmattice4986]

[@Angeliquesiren]

[@HaydenMcNabb]

thank you for uploading this

[@sofianoiti]

6:49 ..!!! "you better roll it before I do something more stupid..."

[@aliciamcmillan441]

For some reason to me by seeing your messages I feel you knew Jeff personally but I'm sure that is private but love seeing your uploads of Jeffs music interviews ect. and messages.

[@aliciamcmillan441]

but then again you look so young so maybe its your love for Jeff and knowlege that make it seem you knew him, on a more personal level.

[@qbsrd]

Sofia Noiti Jeff's highest note, an F#6 ;)

[@sofianoiti]

yes! 6:51 it's F#6

[@sofianoiti]

no, i didn't know him personally, but we have the same thoughts, same feelings, same mentality, same emotion, same passion for singing. It is like I knew him from another world, a past life, may be. But I'm not young, I'm about same age as Jeff would be today. Same generation.

[@maria.maverick]

Blazed out of his mind and still somewhat articulate. Rock on.

[@somes3cretcat]

How do you know he was blazed🤣🤣

[@tashaali8851]

The way his scream jumpscared me when I was about to fall asleep 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 😭

[@Purplealegria7]

This man screamed like a banshee, yelled RASTAFARI, and then proceeded to almost cough up a lung….?? LMAO!! Jesus he is my wacko dream man….. I love your sweet and bitter heart and aching soul Jeff Buckley. I will be waiting for you on the other side.

[@bryansfistfulofwood4620]

I'm just here for the F#6

[@sofianoiti]

this is awesome! isn't it?

[@harryvarvaressos4770]

you got a spliff?

[@leahhuntz6236]

His interviews r so different to any other artist ive heard, so funny 'from the bible' . Did he say he rolled joints at age 5!!

[@Honey-vz1qq]

Sorry, I don't like this interviewer. He doesn't seem to understand Jeff Buckley. Buckley is a poet and a deep thinker. The interviewer asked the wrong questions.

[@Wildrover82]

why would he understand Jeff. this is 1995.

[@maria.maverick]

dreadedwheat26 The people of his time didn't get it.

[@kevtruth]

I wonder what Grifters track he played. I also think that he's not telling the interviewer that he played on Patti's new album recorded in Aug. of 1995 before he went down under that same month. He plays on a song called Beneath The Southern Cross

[@rb919]

I've wondered that too, I adore The Grifters. Jeff also sang on 'Fireflies' and played some improvised guitar with Tom Verlaine on another track called 'Wander I Go' - which was supposed to be on that album but got released later on : )

[@erlendnordstrand9196]

Hi, if you look up Jeff Buckley Triple J 1995, you can find an article that details the songs they played. Hope this helps
