Jeff was maybe the most expressive singer ever, I mean you can really hear all the emotion he wants to convey better then anyone. Gary Lucas is a great guitarist his picking style is very musical and unique.
I love how elemental this version of Grace is. More simple and unassuming, and his lack of stage presence almost brings out the form of the song more. Also it's interesting that he's not playing guitar, as the below commentator noted. So cool that he's just standing there singing, nothing more nothing less.
so how come gary lucas is playing guitar and jeff isn't? usually jeff plays too.. love this though, i love buckley and this is a good version, lucas is great
I used to hate this version but now I totally love it. His period with Gods and Monsters is great and Gary Lucas is a very talented guitarrist. And yes, I also thought that in this particular video he looks just like Franco (or the contrary, whatever).

I'd also like to add that seeing him sing the bridge of this song has made me miss him more than I ever have before...
The world needs him back again. :(
