there have been some faillure name's with JB; Jonas Brothers, Justin Bieber, but the one JB that will live on forever is indeed Jeff Buckley, the master vocalist
I really love watching this video on MTV's ALTERNATIVE NATION! The 90's was a rockin' good time! Brings back a lot of memories. Glad you posted this.
He was truly a messenger. You can just tell from his eyes, that he was an old soul, and that he knew more than the rest of us... I also thought that it was pretty ironic that many of his metaphores and lyrics are about death and water.... rivers.
I love you Jeff, I truly do, and I am not afraid to love you.
love let me sleep tonight on your couch...........all that was so real.............why on earth did he have to die?? the most poetic spirit that has eva walked the face of the earth.... Jeff u are sorely missed..RIP
i tried to sing this song and also californication with some guy from chat roulette who played guitar, but sudenlly chat roulette stopped working and we didnt see each other again... so sad !!!
Iv been reading some comments an just want to say, Im going to Delete anymore silly arguments i come across on here..Cause This song is so spiritual an beautiful an the man is a pure ledgand an i have more respect for this song than to leave BS comments..Usually don't bother me, well except Nirvana also..I just hate it when instead of appreciating the brill music people just want to argue or/an post BH..So plz show this Man some respect or Just move on if its not your thing.Tnx!
Jeff Buckley that's all I got to say!!!!!! Jeff Buckley was SO REAL(like pennylane9587 wrote down)and boy did he DREAM BROTHER,you can tell by his lyrics he had a mind and actually used it!! And by the GRACE that Jeff be stowed upon us, with his most awsome-ness music Jeff Buckley is the most bestest,most awsome, the best musician(not artist cause all he wanted to do was make beautiful music and he did)(some may disagree on that) But thank God(Hallelujah) For Jeff Buckley!!!!! We love you-#1 Fan
Music can be an art. In the old days (1000s of years ago), it was used as a tool, but now its for pleasure more than anything. People create it for others to enjoy, its a medium. People look at a drawing an enjoy it, and the creator is called an artist and not a drawer, so musicians should be classed as artists.
Even though Kurt Cobain is the 'guy to know' during the 90's. Bob Dylan and several others like David Bowie came out and voiced their opinion on who were the best songwriters of the decade.
For me, Jeff Buckley is as good as it gets, apart from the great composers. This was the first song of his I ever heard. After this I played the 'Grace' album pretty much every day for 2 years - got my girlfriend, brother and most of my mates into him. We used to drive people nuts playing it constantly! Never saw him live, wish he was still here. The only person I've ever cried for that I never met. Out of this world voice, talent, lyrics and songs. One of the all-time greats.
You call yourself "The Wisdom Tree" but I don't see anything that indicates that in any of your comments.
If I don't make sense then obviously you can't read.
50 Cent is pathetic, compared to Jeff, and for your information, music isn't all about 'partying up'. That's what the bad music is for, because at a dance party, nobody really cares.
But in terms of TALENT, Jeff outweighs 50 Cent by a long, long, long shot.
there are alot of lines in songs he does that are completely eerie like he knew...it's too bad, most of the greats die way too young. R.I.P. Jeff, we love you!
Unlike, Jeff Buckley, 50 Cent is not a musician. He has not earned the right nor the title to be called a musician. He doesn't even write his own 'music' if you will call it that. He is a failure compared to Jeff.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
You dont make any sense. I mean think about it. When you go out to party up what would you rather dance to? 50 Cent, or Jeff Buckley? LOL i think THAT choice is easy. cause anyway tahts what music is about. suymthin to danceand get wasted to
music is entertainment not something to dance to. besides how can you compare jeff buckley to 50 Cent? they are in two COMPLETELY DIFFERENT genres. so 50 cent you can get pissed to and rave to but thats because its r n b and rap etc. jeff buckle's music is in like a folk genre, and you don't rave to folk now do you? if you don't like jeff buckley then sod off because there's no point in you listening to him, if you're just going to make stupid comments like that.
aye but TheWisdomTree thinks music is only for dancing. but entertainment can also be movies, and theres music in movies, entertainment can be games and games tend to have music and so on.
actually,music with lyrics is poetry,even hip hop shit is poetry,but sometimes there is artist that screw that by making nonsense lyrics,thats one of the reasons why i dont like 50 cent,his style,and if you dont like jeff buckley just dont watch his videos? cause youre making him more famous by that..
lifeisgood... you're right, listening to grace especially. I've sat in a room full of people listening to that song, and I feel isolated and calm, I can't describe it, it's the same thing you get from heroes like Hendrix, and Plant when he sings Stairway to Heaven.
Jeff buckley's music have the power to take us to another world, i can't explain, for me is just like i'm spinning around myself, or floating. I feel like everything is spinning around me, as if you can't see things right... do that while you're listening to his music very loud in a good stereo. Maybe it isn't just with me, or maybe i'm a freak!
And his concerts must be something... it's so bad that he died so young, he could have given us so much good music
Jeff Buckley is so incredible. It's a shame that most artists that were ever worth listening to pass away, and we get stuck listening to all the shitty ones today.
Basically proved nothing there, except you're one of the fucking retards i was talking about.
Get the fuck off this video if you don't like it, and go pour the bullshit into your ears. We'll stay here and listen to something you could never even comprehend understanding.
the jonas brothers or taylor swift on the cover of rolling stone magazine..what is the world coming to? it's all about 'image' and not talent, its a shame. Jeff was put in People magazines "100 most beautiful people" issue(which he IS) but he got so mad about it he dyed his hair black, parted it down the middle and stopped washing it. He just wanted it to be all about the music, and thats how it should be! (even though he is quite beautiful) :) This generation needs more ppl to be "So Real."
Not to mention that all manner of artists get branded as "country" (Swift) or "rock" (Jonas Bros.) when they all come from the same corporate filler pap.
Yep you are spot on.Another person who felt very strongly about that an did numeras things regardless of management etc was Kurt Cobain..
again so real an so talented like Jeff but left us far to soon!
So So Sad..It so hard to find pure talent like this these days..Its all about looks an main stream an being commercial..Most don't never even sing live let alone write there own stuff.All the best were taken or left us so very young, almost like angels sent with a message!
i read the lyrics to this beforei heard the song, becaue i was researching lyrics about nightmares for my art work, but this is amazing, nothing like i expected it to be :)
We walked around 'til the moon got full Like a plate.. And the wind blew an invocation And I fell asleep At the gate.. And I never stepped on the cracks 'cause I thought I'd hurt my mother And I couldn't awake from the nightmare That sucked me in And pulled me under Pulled me under Oh... That was so real Oh... That was so real Oh... That was so real
