@zogrush--that's a loop created by me using a digital delay--in fact, the song opens with my guitar loop and harmonics in the clear before jeff starts singing--i wrote the original solo guitar instrumental "and you will" originally and gave it to jeff -- that is the instrumental basis for this song, all the fingerpicked motifs are mine is is the basic harmonic sequence...thought you might like to know :-)
I wish that I could forget and then rediscover Jeff. Just to experience that joy of discovering one of the most talented musicians of the last 30 years, and to be able to live in blissfull ignorance of his death, if only for a few hours.
My favorite Buckley song. So beautiful and mysterious, written obviously out of impossible love and deeply rooted anguish. Whew...... I've forgotten what that feels like.
lo descubri hace muy poquito de tiempo y paso desapercibido para mi por mucho tiempo y hasta el dia de hoy descubro cosas nuevas,matices en su color de voz,un angel que desaparecio repentinamente,lloro cuando escucho su desgarrante pero tierna y dulce voz.adios jeff.
Jeff radiated humanity and passon in his music. I am grateful to adore & identify with his creative genius."ageless & I'm there in your arms". I will weep & have endearment for you JEFF& keep your spirit alive..with GRACE..evermore oxo
this is one of those songs i know so well. every note by heart. i hear it my mind when i fall asleep at night sometimes and it sounds just the same as if it were booming out the boogie box! ;-)
oh can you tell me (if you remember ) what poor bastard (Italia44840) wrote in his comment (he removed it)..I feel that was something incrediblly funny
Funny story how I got to know jeff... some random guy at a music store walked up to me, and told me to buy this album, saying it looked like I needed it. And he was so right.
TheModCon you're an idiot. Radiohead may have gone downhill, but they will remain a seminal band of the 90s. Likewise OK Computer will constantly feature in top album lists for all time, because it's awesome and people like it. Guess what, Jeff Buckley is also awesome. And different. Go figure. Miss ya Jeff
From what i have read this song is based on a dream that Jeff had of a Black woman..On the definition of Mojo pin there have been different things described..One is an amulet that has to do with magic...Another is a hypodermic needle of heroin...However according to what i have read about Mr Buckley he was not an addict..Another interpretation of this song says that it has to do with obsession..Therefore the song remains a mystery...But what a magnificent song it is.
@Togmif That's it? One band......... Atleast try a bit harder. And TBH, Radiohead aren't even that big. The majority of people you come into contact would either say "Who?" or "OMG I LUV CREEP!" and then realise most of their tracks are bollocks. Lols. Radiohead. You make me laugh man ^^ And dude don't try and pull music snobbery bullshit on me or some shitty award that no one cares about. Radiohead is for pseudo sophisticates who think they're listening to progressive music when they're not.
@TheModCon That's cool. Just because they aren't King Crimson does not mean they do not have progressive elements in their music. Who are you to judge the fans as pseudo sophisticates? You are no different from people who judge Justin Beiber fans. I don't see how you can attack a band in such a irrelevant way, because someone met your challenge of naming a band that got somewhere with a name from a song or name of another artist. You look like a real dickhead you know that?
@BigTymerPimp Having progressive elements doesn't make you a progressive band. Who am I to judge? Well, I've spoken to a lot of Radiohead fans, are most of the ones that I've spoken to are pseudo sophisticates, so yeh, same way you're judging me to be a dickhead lol So sort out your hypocrisy first hah hah My point is, a band that actually got somewhere worth being, not a band that wannabe progs get into because they don't realise half the time there is actually real prog out there
I never said you were a dickhead. I said you look like one by assuming ALL Radiohead fans are pseudo sophisticates. Radiohead doesn't have to be a full-on progressive band. They sound fine the way they are. If you have a problem with it, then that's an opinion. Putting your opinion out there like it's a fact is just plain stupid.
"Well, I've spoken to a lot of Radiohead fans". Well, I've got a piece of paper with 18 names on it, so that must be the world population.
@BigTymerPimp Im not saying they have to change, my point is, the fans acting like they are a progressive, ground breaking band when they just aren't. Everything they do has been done before. Hah hah hah, Im not saying I've spoken to all Radiohead fans, it just so happens every one I have spoken to are up their own arse and think Radiohead are God's giftl ^^ I'll happily point out artists that have done way more than Radiohead in every respect
@TheModCon Oh, I can point out artists that have done more than Radiohead easily. However, that doesn't make Radiohead bad. Not everything is ground breaking, so what? They aren't the first band to have a guitar, drums, bass, and lead singer. So what? Being the most progressive band does not make you great. This is coming from a huge progressive music fan.
And there is a reason fans are called fans. It stands for "fanatics". Those are their opinions. Don't blame a band for its fans liking them.
@BigTymerPimp No it doesn't make Radiohead bad, but it makes the fans deluded which is the problem. That's what this is about, their pseudo sophistication. Im not saying they have to be more progressive to be 'better' because to me, they'll never have many good tunes, but that's not the point. What I'm saying, is their delusion is ridiculous. To claim they are the best band of all time should mean they do something that no one else has done, but they haven't.
@TheModCon You know how many people claim their favorite band or artist to be the best band or artist to make music ever? You can't blame Radiohead for their fan base. Are you aware of how many people claim Jeff Buckley to be the best singer to ever exist? Don't get me wrong, I am not speaking against Jeff in anyway. I just cannot pick a best. I'm completely open-minded to music regardless of who makes it. That said, it doesn't keep me up at night knowing that people do pick favorites or a best.
I finally got this Cd as a Christmas gift...This guy was such a talent,His music is so real (No pun intended) -Compared to most of the crap that is called music these days. The emotion this man put into his music is incredible,His voice is both magnificent and Haunting...And although this Cd has many great songs this one is my favorite.
Couldn't believe the Grace album by Jeff Buckley was only 7 bucks when I bought it 2 days ago. Been looking forever for that album! It should be sold for at LEAST a few more bucks!
I walked in at this record shop in Lisbon hoping to find something new... and this song was playing there. Couldn`t have found any better than Grace!! You embrace us all !! R.I.P. JB
Brad PItt is a huge Jeff fan and wanted to play the part if a film is ever to be made. Jeff's family told him they thought that he was too high profile and it would take away from the believability of the role, as Jeff wasnt too well known.

what's with the cigarette at 2:39? I find it hard to believe he was a smoker, he would have a hard time reaching the high notes in his singing. Did he just pose with a cigarette for something?
sidenote they should make a movie about this guy, but who's goodlooking enough to play him? Im straight and I can totally say that he's like the best looking guy Ive ever seen : /
