how can they (or she) believe me . Believe me when i say thanks for posting this homage> as usual making it his own. We love the smiths equally thank goodness for them both long live the kings
Actually I never thought the original did this song justice - this version really brings out just how beautiful the lyrics and the chords really are in my opinion.
I know this is a late and unnecessary reply lol but if you listen carefully, a guy right at the start goes "Hallejulah", then another guy much louder shouts "Yay!", then someone else murmurs but it's too quiet to hear, then finally Jeff goes "That's too predictable."
@spazabarri Hallelujah and Yard of blonde girls... I wouldn't have been that surprised I he had made a better version, or at least one as good as theirs.
Jeff is great both versions are great. A song can be sung 1000+ different ways and all can be equally good.

I love most everything that Jeff Buckley has done (did)... and I do like this cover but... you can't beat the original. Great song!

You have to respect Jeffs covers, because, who could copy Grace at full scream ? Not many....

Jeff wasn't copying the smiths with this, he was complimenting them, and very well too!

I have found it roaming in the web, but I think you could find it on the remastered version of the Live at Sin-é

I'm a huge fan of the Smiths and I love Jeffs covers of The Smiths personally, and I'm usually highly critical of Smiths covers

To me and by far Jeff Buckley has made the most beautiful and moving cover of the Smiths's song...
